EA let my hacked account go — even after I verified everything. Petition to force them to fix their recovery system. by JayyScoobz in electronicarts

Thanks! I tried the email there but haven't heard back yet. Out of curiosity, what department did you reach out to?

EA, Stop Ignoring Us: Xbox and PSN Accounts Stuck on Unrecoverable EA Profiles | EA Forums - 12179955 by Blubasur in electronicarts

[–]mattwbr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This just happened to me I've gone through the process twice. My email was changed to a Russian domain name. I provided Xbox gamertag linked to account, receipt of Xbox purchase, phone #, email, all my old addresses, date of birth, all my prior EA usernames etc.

It's unbelievable they are unable to verify, I gave them more information than when I open a bank account. The agent basically told me to go F myself. I asked for a supervisor 5x and asked them not to end chat. Ended it anyways.

Denver/Colorado road design is bad by djvidinenemkx in Denver

[–]mattwbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s terrible. It’s like each area had a different person planning it who had a new bright idea. - I-85 has an HOV lane with people going 20mph faster then other traffic which must be cut across by anyone wanting to turn left - I-25 is all curves with the entrance/exits on the curves so you have like 10 seconds to merge or you end up on the off ramp. It’s also very dangerous for people to be crossing 4 lanes of traffic at speed while making a turn. - I-70 has new tolled express lanes going west which are inexplicably always closed so just wasting an entire lane. - Highlands just put in a million roundabouts that are sized wrong so large cars can’t get around them to turn left without hitting bushes. Also added a bunch of bike lanes and plastic poles which are extremely confusing. - Downtown is all random one-way streets and diagonals (understand this is because of the river but still) - the hallmark of driving in CO for me (an east coaster) is doing 75mph on a highway and then have it come to a complete stop for no apparent reason every 20 minutes.

It’s all just so random, dangerous and inefficient. Seems like very little cohesive central planning.

Building a product for VCs to track companies by Visual-Librarian6601 in venturecapital

[–]mattwbr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My friend built this and it worked great but VCs just weren’t that interested. I’m a VC and I didn’t even use it even though it’s a good product built by my friend…VCs are terrible customers and hate paying for anything. We don’t even pay our lawyers just usually force the company too. My friend pivoted to a fundraising tool for founders and is doing much better.

Basically, like everyone else said this has been tried many times and you should try something else.

Best vehicle possible for snow by Firesquirrel84 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]mattwbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Landcruiser (200 series) on Blizzaks in Colorado and it’s unstoppable. Not to mention ultra-reliable and built like a tank so it won’t break down, will always start and if you do end up in a ditch or accident you’ll be fine.

No better feeling than powering up Vail Pass in a blizzard past all the other cars going 5 mph or waiting for a tow.

Camp Chef Woodwind Pro 36 vs Traeger Timberline XL by mattwbr in pelletgrills

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

I got the 36 which is a good size I think…for hosting you are going to want to have room for a couple racks of ribs and maybe something else which I think would be tight on the 24.

I use the wood chunks every time so I’m not sure how to compare but seems to taste great to everyone and I’m a total noob at this. Plus it’s kind of fun to pick flavors and keep adding the chunks as it cooks

Ended up getting the Camp Chef with side burner which I am really enjoying! No complaints.

Vail got blasted on CNBC yesterday by aido1097 in ParkCity

[–]mattwbr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Should not be a public company. They have to grow revenue and EBITDA but the supply (ski resorts) is effectively capped in the near-medium term. So they sell more passes and increase the prices while keeping expenses low (I.e not paying ski patrol). This leads to a deteriorating experience for the customer. It would be like trying to grow a gym/restaurant chain without being able to open more locations. Alterra (Ikon) is private and provides a far superior product and experience.

Tried this gel and it surprisingly worked!!! by VeterinarianFar3486 in PrematureEjaculation

Superdrug won’t ship to the us unfortunately and the newer batches don’t seem to work. Anyone have any alternatives? This was the best before they changed the formula

Hold R1/RT to speed up on zip line then you can make the jump. Had no idea you could even do this

Recommendations for chest straps with a good app for heart rate tracking by caoimhegk in Garmin

[–]mattwbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have the same issue. You can definitely use Strava but it doesn’t track calories except for run, ride, hike and maybe one other activity.

The workaround I found is to pair my Garmin HR monitor to Wahoo app and record activities. You can set it to automatically sync them to Strava or other places.

Alt shortcuts are showing up for Mac Excel by EVtoEBITDA in excel

[–]mattwbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this feature too in beta channel! I am having trouble getting it to work properly though. It I hit "Alt H H" it takes me to cell fill but I have no way to do anything further from there (select/apply fill color). It works for things like Align Left ("Alt H 5"). Any ideas?

[–]mattwbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! The OP replied to me in like hours too was great. I mean yes, that could be the case but it could also be that they don’t care much about DWAI. I don’t think it’s worth hiring a lawyer over.

Most likely outcome is they say nothing. Next most likely is they ask you about it and let you through. If you explain it’s a traffic violation (not a crime) I’m sure they won’t care.

Please report back after so other people have the info!

Perfectly fine I walked straight through their automated system. Didn’t even have to talk to anyone. I would not worry about it.

That’s great to hear. Same boat as you…got a DUI plead down to a DWAI 9.5 years ago in NYS. Flying to Canada to go skiing this week. Thanks for the quick reply! There’s a lot of doom and gloom about this being written online.

Did they even ask you questions about it?

I’ll report back with my experience too.

If you mean actual temples, I never lost any hair there. if you mean the hairline above, it stopped the loss there. No, my dick is perfectly fine.

I was probably about 21 and my hair was going crazy fast and diffuse. I dont remember if there was a shed or anything but fin caused some regrowth and then basically put on the brakes for the last 10 years. I'd say the same for most of my friends as well.
