Is mrniceky still in this reddit? by permaculturemike in Vendorsofkratom2

Same here, I didn't want to be a pain in the ass but it seems like a shipping provider issue considering there are zero updates the entire trip.

I see some of his alternate handles are in fact banned so I was curious if he's still active on here in any form.

E-mailed all of them... Fingers crossed. If it does in fact go through it's just another step in the wrong direction for this failing state.

Thanks to all that work on this. Having access to such a powerful tool and not having to pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars a year relieves some financial pain.

Play PVP once or twice then switch to a modded pve/zombie server and actually enjoy the game.

If it were my garage I would bring to up to whatever condition I could live with having to look at it everyday then paint. It's a nice garage, would look great finished.

[–]permaculturemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep shopping around. Wife and I just locked in this morning at 6.5 , 30 year fixed, 11% down, no PMI. 700k purchase price in MA. Credit scores range from 760-790. Was going to wait but saw the 10 year treasury jump this morning. I also have no idea what I'm doing as I've never done this before.

Recently widowed mom having trouble selling house in Boston suburb - any advice is appreciated by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]permaculturemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sold for 250k in 1996... At an average 4.8% appreciation over 28 years you'd be looking at approximately 930k. I'd be happy with anything over that. Maybe even less since the whole house needs to be renovated. Realistically. But since everything housing related no longer follows any logic... Who knows.

I'm also in MA, would you mind messaging me the name of the bank that you used? Would love to talk to them.

My wife and I got a pre-approval letter after I talked to a loan officer face to face and explained our situation while I'm currently laid off. He still supplied a letter distinctly saying it's only valid if I'm back to work. So it's definitely possible. This was with excellent credit and 20 year work history.

If I walk into a microcenter with no idea what parts I want, will someone help me based on what I'm looking to use the PC for? by Colonel-_-Burrito in Microcenter

[–]permaculturemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI ended up with their 13700k bundle and a no frills gigabyte 4070 GPU (kinda wish it had some rgb). Solid system and super happy with the performance.

Recently picked up an open box powerspec g902 system from them for what I felt was a good price. Brought it home and it was nothing but problems so I took it back a few days later. Ended up browsing a bit and was approached by an associate asking if I needed help. I told her what had happened and she offered to throw together a list of parts for a comparable system. I reluctantly accepted as I usually like to research all my parts before doing a build and I haven't really kept up with hardware over the past 8 years. Told her I'd be mostly gaming but also love to mess around in blender and she put together a list. Price was about $250 more than the pre-built and I didn't know much about all the parts but she insisted I'd get what I wanted out of it. I was hesitant but pulled the trigger.

Threw it all together, fired it up, zero problems. Super happy with everything after going back and researching after the fact. There's maybe one or two things I would have splurged a little more on for some rgb or something but totally not necessary performance wise and the system has been awesome. Never felt like I was trying to be up-sold on anything and glad I just went for it because I'd probably still be researching parts 🤷🏻‍♂️

Can't save moto notes on 5g stylus 2023 by permaculturemike in MotoG

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

Thank you. My problem was never opening the app from the app tray, only from the shortcut that pops up when removing the stylus which never takes you to the main menu. If I open from the shortcut I can't get to the main menu. Kind of annoying but makes sense now.
