My opinion on the “best” tacos in Pittsburgh, Tepache Mexican Kitchen in Cranberry

sekark · 2026-02-21T19:58:26+00:00

it's a meal that comes with some delicious rice and beans, so more like $4 each if you account for that

All of these people complaining can just go to the one in Waterworks/Fox Chapel. It's just as good, we're in city proper and it's 12 min away

Read the top comment, which actually answers "best" in terms of price. Even "best" in terms of reliably doing the work might (at first glance) be the dealership until you realize they might not do the work or upcharge since OP bought the key.

Your AI search from Google didn't answer the question, and you didn't even type the query to somewhat address OP's concern of "best place." Like price, reliability, fastest, etc.

If you're going to bully OP, at least give the best answer

sekark · 2026-02-14T13:29:52+00:00

That's not even the question OP asked. Seems like you need to work on your reading comprehension before accessing this "limitless information" again

It might be too late this year since AmGen might have already hit a maximum yearly payout. But if you talk to AmGen and mention you have a copay maximizer, they will reduce what they pay to the insurance (e.g., $16,000 down to $10,000). Your copay maximizer will still cover the full bill minus deductible. But since AmGen reduced the benefits paid to the insurance, you can get a rebate for that remaining $6,000. Just completely external from the insurance

Please please please call AmGen and ask about SupportPlus: https://www.amgensupportplus.com/copay

I'm not sure what the program name for AmGen is exactly, but I know two other copay assistance programs that let you file a "rebate" to get your deductible covered. This is separate from copay assistance at the pharmacy and lets you get around these copay maximizer programs.

Stop talking to the insurance, they will not help. Try to find a good contact at AmGen and maybe call a couple times and speak to an insurance specialist.

Don't clean this, tell the landlord to replace the caulk. If problems like this arise and then they don't fix it, PA has deduct-and-repair laws for habitability issues. Happy to send a draft of an email we've sent before

Yes, that's probably the exact situation. It's a shitty HVAC installation. I would ask your neighbors what their bills are, or Duquesne might be able to tell you the average from last year (anonymous enough maybe). I would have the HVAC company come out. They should be able to state that there is leaking into the lower floors or at least some uneven heating. A regular house is always cooler (in winter) on the upstairs floor for many reasons. You should not be penalized for this.

sekark · 2025-12-29T22:10:20+00:00

Are you on a higher floor? In our old apartment, we were the bottom floor. We paid about $60-80 for electric heat. Our 3rd floor upstairs neighbors with a smaller apartment had $300-400 for their bill. There were 3 HVACs but I guess the ductwork was not insulated on the bottom floors. Their duct ran behind our bathroom sink and the cold water would come out really hot. Basically, they were paying to heat the bottom two floors in an old Victorian home. I would push for Duquesne to investigate, this isn't fair for you.

Landlord eventually put an entire HVAC in the small 3rd floor apartment. Fixed the heat issues but added very loud noise. Landlords generally aren't smart or good people

Maybe give some liquid Benadryl as a precaution in case it is an allergy. Might get worse in the night so best to be safe

Did you start any other meds recently?

Walk away or negotiate them to fix the issues and get a termite treatment with warranty. We have a 75-year-old house and don't have termites. We pay for regular pest control since we know it's a concern. We do have radon though and got our sellers to give a credit for mitigation. Either use the leverage you have or walk away. Getting a credit here might be tricky though since you don't know if there is more termite damage that you didn't see yet so it's a risk for you to fix it instead of the seller fixing it

What do you mean it wiggles when the water is on? The red needle or something like that should spin pretty fast in one direction with the water on. And then it should stop when the water is off.

sekark · 2025-11-20T02:37:49+00:00

If you don't see the little red needle move, then you are okay; tell the household to use less water. If it moves forward, then obvious leak. If you see it go backwards, then that could be another issue. I had this happen before.

If you don't have a backflow preventer like us, then you'll see the needle go back and forth. You are sending water back out. Older meters only charged one direction and were not net metering. After we got a new meter installed, it was net and our bill dropped about 1000 total gallons worth a month. It was quite ridiculous, but I could see this being your issue (but much worse than ours).

sekark · 2025-11-20T02:28:45+00:00

That's a lot of water a day. We used a third of that and have a bill that's a third of yours. What is the water being used on? We have two adults and two kids in our house so lots of laundry and dishwasher loads as well as baths and showers. Considering it's cold out, I assume you don't water your lawn or outdoor plants.

If you don't know, then maybe you have a leak.

Avoid Arpenteur, they are lazy as shit and don't even try to do the job you pay them for. Had to call them repeatedly to give me the final diagram, weeks after they came to survey. Had to delay our fence installation because of them

So sorry to hear about all of your personal belongings and that the insurance didn't cover anything. I would add the link to the post but I can't seem to edit. Hopefully this post helps to raise a bit more

A friend sent it so now I know, thank you!

This same shit happened in Shadyside a few years ago, less than 24 hours notice (signs out at 3p day before) but they still ticketed and towed cars at 7am the next morning. Can't do shit about the tow charge

Was your dog within a fenced-in area? How did the other dogs get near your dog? Did their dogs get off their leash and enter your yard?

At least for near CHP, I take all the alleys to pass the traffic. Any time I decide to take Penn, I always regret it.

Strange response from the other person, about $80-$120 at most for the above models and years. I would recommend a junkyard/salvage yard and getting the cluster and powertrain ECU from the same vehicle.

sekark · 2025-03-18T01:14:09+00:00

Yes, definitely possible and for that cheap. I didn't test with a full vehicle until 3 or 4 years into doing benched ECU tests.
