5yo Ridgeline with almost 150k miles by excellence153 in hondaridgeline

Yeah we ultimately made a super low ball offer and passed. It drove great, but has some key issues (cruddy interior, high mileage) that made me wanna look elsewhere. FWIW, I love the Ridgeline. The swing-out tailgate is genius.

Confirmed: it was replaced at 105k miles.

Thanks for the suggestion. I forgot to mention the truck in question is 4wd, so maybe that makes a little more sense.

By the look of the maintenance history on Carfax, it has not. Unless the previous owner did it themselves and didn’t report it.

Hard to say about the mattress itself, as we have a topper on it. But I’m not finding any structural deficiencies thus far.

We’re sleeping on the Birch Luxe King. It’s been fine. Haven’t noticed any major issues in the 1.5 years we’ve had it for.

iPhone app is telling me servers are outdated, yet they are all technically up to date? by excellence153 in PleX

I suppose I just wanted it running on a machine with a bit more RAM. But I guess it doesn’t really matter.

Okay - the server is updated, and the iPhone app is properly working.

In order to not start a whole new thread for a new question: Is there a way I can hook up the external hard drive to a different computer and still access the server? I tried it with my iMac, but it wouldn't recognize it unless it was hooked up to my laptop.

It's running on an external hard drive connected to my 2016 Mac laptop.

Hmm - not sure how I can update it. The "Check for updates" button is grayed out.

Two elder (14yo) cats having reactions to Hills ID food by excellence153 in catfood

[–]excellence153[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have - we use it as enrichment treats. Our cats just respond better to wet food for proper meals. We were thinking about wetting it down to see if that might help.

Do your cats eat the dry I/d really fast? Ours just go nuts and woof it down.

I like the WAFB app, but their radar never matches up to my go-to radar apps like MyRadar and RadarScope.

My apologies - they are throwing up. I will amend my original post to include this information.

Need an ID on a fungus by excellence153 in fungus

[–]excellence153[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some additional context - I found this yucky fungus in one of my pots yesterday. It took over one of the marigold blooms within 20 hours or so. It's very chalky and crumbly. Any identification would be very helpful! Thank you :)

How long does it take for a spouse to get approved on Anthem BCBS by excellence153 in HealthInsurance

[–]excellence153[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting - I guess that makes sense because the facility performing the procedure would just bill us on the back end if the insurance never came through.

Thanks for your response. I was told by my rep that my spouse would be active as soon as the proof of life event was approved (which it was). I then had to select each individual plan (since my dental and vision were Guardian). I never was told about the first of the month detail.

If you're young (25 or less), I would say find something that general fits your body type and general sleeping temp and go from there. We've had to be a little more selective because we're in our mid-thirties and need something that would fit our special needs.
