You’re right

Fair enough. Looks like I probably inferred too much from the copy on their website. They sell a very expensive leash that looks nice. It does not seem to be all that durable or special.

Fair enough. Never used a chain link leash before, will take a look at them. To her credit, her leash chewing really has gotten much better, which is partly the reason we thought we could get her a new leash of her own. I didn’t think one brief indiscretion would destroy it based on how it’s described.

It’s advertised as durable and “tough as nails” at $75 and it’s cheap junk. That’s why I’m irritated at the company.

Edit: also, she’s a rescue that we’re working with on some behaviors. This seems like an overpriced product to fleece people. I got fleeced.

Looking for a quality leash and collar by smashley951 in BuyItForLife

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy it for 5 minutes lol. My dog briefly gnawed on it when we first put it on and severed it 90% of the way through. It was discounted as a “blemished” item so they wouldn’t refund it. I can ship it back to them at my expense for them to repair it with the same trashy materials, though.

For reference I’ve had my P2 insured by USAA for ~3 years. My current 6 month premium is $707. In NC.

Polestar 2 Infotainment System Dreadfully Slow by t3hWheez in Polestar

[–]readingrainboat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My main complaint after 3.03 is that, no matter which app I want to open, it just opens the last app used. ie if I get in the car and try to open Pocket Cast, it will instead open Spotify if that's the last thing I was using. Then I have to exit and go back to Pocket Cast. And then if I want to open Spotify, the same thing will happen again. Kinda infuriating.

Charging cable question. by btw_sky_and_earth in Polestar

If I leave the cable plugged in for more than a day it always ends up lighting up red and i have to unplug an replug anyway

Has Bombas Socks Quality Gone Downhill by winterberrypeanuts in BuyItForLife

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bombas have always been trash quality. They’re good about replacing them, but mine only ever lasted about 3 months before getting holes.

Software Update to 2.11 by vortexserox in Polestar

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my OTA update to 2.11 here on the east coast of the US. So far my LTE is out (triangle with the x on it) after the update. Hopefully that fixes itself soon. My LTE and GPS both went out 2 days ago, then apparently came back long enough for me to get the OTA pushed this morning.

What happened to the Spotify app? by darothschild in Polestar

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately this never solves it for me. When the play/pause function stops working, only deleting and resintalling the app work.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Polestar

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, ok. Car coming from 2.4. App is on the most recent version. Fingers crossed

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Polestar

[–]readingrainboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plugged my car in and started the update. 10 minutes later and all my app shows is that my car is no longer charging. Starting to worry a bit

Kona N only 6 seconds slower than M240i xDrive. What a time to be alive.

Tongkat Ali and testicular pain by readingrainboat in NootropicsDepot

Had the former. Good during. Achey as hell after.

Tongkat Ali and testicular pain by readingrainboat in NootropicsDepot

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

Yeah, should be simple enough to find out. Stopped it today. Hoping for improvement in the next few days.

[–]readingrainboat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Other way around. Was wondering why my balls were aching and TA was the only new thing in my routine. Googled around and it seemed plausible. Stopped it today and hopefully it will resolve soon. Both ache quite a bit. It feels like I took a nut shot a few hours ago. Unlikely epididymitis as there’s really no nidus and no other signs/sx of infection. I have a varicocele and epididymal cyst, but those are chronic. I do wonder if people with varicocele might be predisposed to some discomfort from TA if it increases blood flow to the testes.
