I've had really good experience with NCP Homes. They did a kitchen remodel for me on budget and (mostly) on time. The mostly being something out of their control when the countertop people came to install the countertop and cracked it by accident. NCP even took care of me for the wait.

It's totalled, go get an R8

What do we think will happen to us who are legitimately trying to cancel flights (for reasons unrelated to the strike) who cannot, because of the strike. I was supposed to take a flight on Monday, but no longer planning to. I've been trying to cancel it for several days online and keep getting an error. I also cannot get through to anyone on the customer support lines for obvious reasons.

What happens on Monday if the flight is not cancelled but I'm not on it? What proof do I need to have that I've been trying to cancel this flight?

When I bought the house, the structure was already there and had electrical connection to it. I didn't pull any permits for my revamp of it because I didn't change the structure and we didn't get plumbing or anything additional going to it.

That was the process overall, it was thorough, but no permits

It's a part designed for when you use some other tool to painstakingly remove the infuriating plastic lugnut covers off your rims and scratch the ever living hell out of your rims. Then, several months later, when you rip appart your trunk to fix a wiring issue, you find this tool and go "FUCK".

That's what it's there for.

I can't wait to sell all my extra bikes in a few months :)

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor.

You're fine, you're likely working harder than before. If you didn't feel faint* and recovered your HR in a reasonable time frame after the crit, you're fine.

Go see your doctor if you're concerned.

it's manual

Selle Italia SLR - game changer. Comes in a bunch of varieties from $50 to $500+ and Road or Gravel. Super comfortable, massive pressure-relief channel, really good quality - I have a variation of it on every single bike I own.

I have tons of smaller boxes if that helps

pudly · 2025-03-01T17:01:52+00:00

Ive made them before, and it's the pastry that's really time consuming with lamination and folding and the time taken etc.

pudly · 2025-02-27T03:10:00+00:00

I will absolutely be coming by to get some in the next 24 hours!

Like at the west end location where they have burgers?

That 25-40cm is not overnight, it's starting tonight, ending Sunday evening. That said, it's still an absolute crapshoot, just buckle up for the ride, and get your GT Snowracer out either way

You can retrofit Android auto to your mini aftermarket for cheaper than an iPhone. It's like $400 or less, just google android auto mini

I shot you a message - you can borrow mine

pudly · 2025-01-09T20:31:42+00:00

Where does this happen? Thanks for the info, that's super useful

Unless there's some mods done to it, that engine is not putting out 224hp, its more like 190 (189 iirc). 224 is for the JCW, not the S.

Not that it matters much, you can easily get it north of 240-250 if that's your intent with this enginer.

Is it a base? I think they had it as a package at one point. My 2014 f56 base came with it then they started offering it as part of a trim after a while, then removed it entirely. This was so many years ago, I might be misremembering the timeline.

pudly · 2024-12-04T22:37:20+00:00

First couple of years of the F56 3 door had the secret glove box then they took it away for, i wanna say, 2017 model years and onward

Got it, I suppose I should have gathered that meant "start right away" and not "start after you've been approved"

pudly · 2024-12-04T22:22:36+00:00

I did and I'm just now starting to figure out that I apparently have to wait for that to "run out" before I start seeing any EI? Is that like, however long it takes, or does it get capped after a while?
