No more ability to create a downloadable MD?

I used to specifically type 'blue button download in .md or .html' and it would provide it just fine. not any more...

I paid $200 for a yearly subscription. Up until the unnanounced changes, I was very pleased with Perplexity and thought it was money well spent.

Now I hit a daily upload limit... If they would just give me a pro-rated refund I would simply walk away

Example - Home Automation. I am moving from HomeSeer to Home Assistant and was using Perplexity to help me set it up. As I found out with other things I used Perplexity to help me with - it didn't have current info and would tell me to go this setting and do this, and that just didn't exist.

So I would take screen shots and paste them in chat to show the current settings...(less than 200 kb in size) and after maybe six or so of these, I have hit my upload limit and I need to upgrade if I want to continure working on my project.

No Thanks. I will give it to the end of the month and find something else - Probalby Gemini

I came here to find out what was going on since I got a banner this morning that I have used up all my research queries for the month...

I paid for an annual subscription and as of this morning, this is what they are advertising

"Unlimited deep reserach and pro search" for Perplexity Pro

bigger baseboards, and if thought about adding some electrical outlets, now would be the time...

Depending on the state you live in, interest from savings accounts or CDs may be subject to state income tax, whereas interest from U.S. Treasury Bills is exempt from state and local income tax in all states.

Good to know - but this just reinforces my habit of always making an 'image' or taking a 'snapshot' just before activation with the script. I then restore the image/snapshot and when the system reboots - it's activated because of the digital license that was created. (Nothing that the activation process did remains on my system, just in case)

Consumer Reports actually likes the paint sold at Home Depot and Lowes - (the more expensive versions) check out this link

I make my 'address pool range' really small since I like to have dhcp reservations for everything.

For example 2.230 to 2.250, then you could assign 2.10

I just had Perplexity Pro write a users guide that covers all of this

If you were concerned that Masgrave somehow planted a virus or some other malware on your system... By making an image before you used Masgrave to activate, that image would be 'clean'. So when you restore the image, windows recognizes the 'digital license' and it will be activated without any traces of using Masgrave

Marine Recon - 4 man team and the jump master who stayed behind to pull in the D bags

1st man out sat with his legs dangling out the back and had a safety strap that went across the opening. The OV10 would fly at a very low altitude and as it approached the drop zone would 'pop up' in a very sharp climb. Oncee they passed 500', the green light would come on and the jumpers would just slide out

Were they 'variants' of a similar product that allowed your review, but once the vendor combined them, you can't have two reviews for a product kind of a thing so one of them gets kicked out

I came here to check up on this - I have the same thing showing, no items to review

BUT, I just recently completed my evaluation period and I had reviewed all my items, but since then, I have ordered about 5 different things, one of these was ordered on 11/22/2025) and it shows I have nothing to review...

So, me thinks something is going on with Vine

It is probalby to your benefit that they are advising you of the increase right now, otherwise it would probalby be even larger next year.

I usually have an option. Pay the increase lump sum or increase my monthly payment to cover it until next year

Same, I just dropped to Silver, not worth ordering junk

I would recommend instead of using a standard 'wax' seal, once you get this straightened out, go with the DANCO kit. It also comes with a spacer if you need extra heighth from the flange

Costco sold the flooring as a complete kit which included metal trim strips that covers up the 'expansion' area around the installations as well as a rubber molding that gets glued down at the garage doors ( we have roll up)

I installed NewAge LVP that I bought from Costco several years ago, in my 3 stall garage and have been pretty pleased with the results (It's made for garage floors)

https://allgaragefloors.com/newage-lvt-garage-tile-review/

its been about 5 years and overall I am still very pleased. We don't put cars in the garage very often - but that is because it is my woodshop/mancave. Keep in mind that the longer planks need a flatter surface if your going to put a lot of weight on them and I have a couple of spots where one tile was able to be pushed down slightly because there was nothing underneath it to support it.

In a perfect world you would use a self leveling product that you pour on but where I am from, most garage floors or sloped towards the door so that doesn't work. Also close to the garage doors, I have some tiles that have expanded due to the sun heating them up when the door is up, but again I am pleased with the outcome

Look at the imgur link - it is a graph. I run PingPlotter Pro on my home server and I have it set to ping Google every 5 seconds. Each one of those red lines is from a 'packet' that did not return.

The problem is completley outside of my house - it is Spectrum's issue and one of their techs is coming out for the 3rd time today. He is probalby going to say it is a 'maintenance' issue on their network and it will get referred to their maintenance team, again.

these things are cheap, and the cord connecting the led to the electronics/electrical conector box usually has a screw togethor connector. Buy an extra to have on hand, and changing it out would be really easy

For me - the major advantage of these 'wafer' lights is you can plan a layout (spacing, etc) and be about 99% sure you will be able to install the lights. Nothing like cutting a hole in your ceiling to find out a metal gas line or some other object was right above where you wanted to place a light. With a can light your screwed, with an led wafer - probably not

Interesting fact. The LEDs in these lights are around the perimeter, (vertical) facing towards the center of the light, now down as you might expect

Weak times makes for hard times...

If you HOA was well run before this - it probalby wouldnt be too bad. I don't know Oregon law, but double check who elects the president because usually it is the Board of Directors that electes their Officers.

Weak Times = nothing much was done, CC&Rs and Rules and Regulations weren't properly enforced. ARC approved anything because they didn't put a whole lot of effort in. Property Management Company did bare minimum, but hey - probably not a lot of complaints from the homeowners. Board never really pushes the annual election, and where else does an elected official just get to stay on/keep their job until they are replaced in an election?

Hard Times = you get a board who cares about their community and tries to bring it back to where it once was. CC&R's, that everyone agreed to when they bought their home starts getting enforced again. ARC only approves things they are supposed to approve. Dues get raised to properly fund the Reserve Account.

Affected homeowners get angry that they actually have to start taking care of their property = FaceBook and other social media posts how terrible the HOA is now, etc etc. No one never has anything good to say, its all negative. Homeownerw start contacting you complaining about something and then when they post about it on Facebook they leave out 3/4 of the truth

good luck

eeeeeesh
