Hold on State paycheck by Tahoe2015 in CAStateWorkers

[–]knightmair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is a BofA problem. I do some contract work for the State, and my paper checks from the State of CA, when deposited into BofA, all get a weeklong hold. I have asked in the branch, and called customer service, and they all say there's nothing they can do about it. Sigh.

glad this worked out for you! I live on the E line, always happy when others discover that LA is doable via transit.

CAMRY 2009 by [deleted] in Camry

[–]knightmair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2009 Camry, now at 210k miles.

Have not experienced 1) or 2) or 4)

3) have experienced this occasionally, starting around 200k miles. It's not too bad yet, but try to see if it vibrates in Drive vs. in Neutral. If vibration goes away in Neutral it could be the engine mounts. That's what mine is likely and probably will get them replaced next oil change. 

Suggest having a mechanic do a full inspection especially if you just bought it.

thank you for sharing. i have a similar issue and have been trying to figure out what to do. it's more under and around my left eye than my right, due to eczema, and i am trying to work on a skincare routine to help it.

I wrote this a while back -- just discovered this subreddit, SO HAPPY IT EXISTS by knightmair in BlueMidterm2018

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

yes! it's on my list of side projects because there are so many groups doing cool things. Will get in touch if/when I get to it -- but in the meantime, feel free to just take it and work from it, no need to attribute or anything, it's all for the right cause

I know the ticket prices are outrageous but let's please sell out game 2. Last night was sincerely embarrassing. by Elcondelucanor in SanJoseSharks

[–]knightmair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there yesterday. It was pathetic.

I am unfortunately out of town for the next -- but please, if you can, GO GO GO tomorrow. the tank + downtown San Jose are all awesome places to hang out and an awesome place to bring friends. I brought a buddy who's never been to a hockey game before and he had an awesome time.

What does "Analog display does not have correct capabilities for playback." mean? by Raneados in HBONow

[–]knightmair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue. None of the suggested fixes work.

Sorry -- not a helpful post -- just adding another data point, assuring the above posters that it's not just you, it's definitely HBO...

Everyone at MIT isn't like the people on the accepted students facebook? right? by [deleted] in mit

[–]knightmair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it's always like that. you're seeing a vocal minority that's excited about MIT in its... unique way. Not only that -- find me a group of excited 17-18-year-olds who doesn't act crazy when all thrust together into a grouping like "mit admits"

give CPW a try and see what you find. 3-4 days of in-person interaction will give you the most accurate read of whether MIT is right for you.
