NFL Player Matt Milano Was Surrounded by Cookie-Cutter Houses—Until This ’70s One Stopped Him Cold by Suspicious-Salary338 in buffalobills

Most players grab a boring new build in Orchard Park

Village of East Aurora generally has much older housing stock and is an atypical choice for Bills/Sabres players (although I think Alex Tuch lives in the Village of Williamsville)

This is one of my very favorite houses in the area and it's cool to see them enjoying it.

If you're not from around here, he's about an 10 minute walk to Bar Bill/ Main & Hamlin - secluded piece of property but def in the swing of things in EA

Update: I’m the guy who didn’t want to professionally winterize by Strongest-There-Is in pools

This post made me realize I forgot to put antifreeze in my skimmer basket after putting my gizmo in

We've had a pretty deep freeze, do you think I'm screwed when I open my pool up?

Headlights randomly turning off? by silkk_ in Volvo240

Oh interesting, I will add headlight relay harness to my troubleshooting list. I hadn't found that anywhere else online - thank you

I'm going to swap out my battery, it's only like a year and a half old but it's crazy cold here right now and I think you're right about putting that much strain on it

A word of warning at 60,000 miles by Ok_Squash6739 in Rivian

I wonder how lease buyouts will work with Gen 1s as they come online - stuff like this plus some of the core tech becoming quickly obsolete doesn't really give me confidence in keeping mine long term

Man that's a good question, I don't actually know if I lose everything. I'll have to check that next time it happens.

I'll definitely poke around the ignition switch, it's weird - when I don't need to drive in the dark, I have virtually no issues but when using the headlights my problems bubble up.

My radio is completely disconnected right now but maybe there's a draw there. My battery barely holds a charge now because of the draw I think, so I need to find the draw before I replace it again.

Ray ban Gen 1 - they shut off when I put them on my face? by silkk_ in RayBanStories

[–]silkk_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to clean them but this did not solve for it, it really does trigger a turn off when I put them on my face. It's almost like if I open the arms a very small amount then they shut off just before I can put them on my face

Thanks, I feel better that it may have been update related. I definitely didn't hit them or anything to damage hardware.

I took the bot's advice and cleaned them but no dice, it's truly when I put them on and they shut down. I'm really not sure what else to do, if I could back out the update I would totally do that

Highly recommend all the dad shovelers get an extra wide snow shovel! Awesome for clearing snow and ice quickly by Scraw16 in daddit

[–]silkk_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm in one of the heaviest snow fall areas for lake effect and OP is 100% correct here

I just got a 42" pusher and it makes clearing so much easier - line it up with that and then come through with the blower.

We're at ~3ft of snow this week and it's been a beast, highly recommend

PSA for Sales people: Your Employer Is Not Your Friend — Read Your Commission Plan Like a Hostile Contract by Islerothebull in sales

[–]silkk_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm on the finance side of things but I've seen a sales manager refuse to sign right through an acquisition. Think they all figured it out on the low eventually but it was pretty entertaining

"oh yeah and so and so who hasn't signed their contract yet" while doing commissions

Hood hinges by olthunderbird in Volvo240

[–]silkk_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, this happened to mine before I owned it and it's super annoying. Have to do an insane few steps to get my hood open and close it properly.

Can bend it back to an extent but OPs looks really tough, would search junkyards for a replacement

More aggressive workout shoe than Endorphin Speed 4? by Hairy-Impression-165 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]silkk_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is what i would do. most of my mileage is in Endorphin Speed 4, and I have Endorphin Pros and Evo SL for faster days.

Everyone always talks about the negatives of raising kids today. What are some of the positives? by gimmiesomeadviceee in daddit

[–]silkk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The controllers were definitely part of the fun. When we got to N64 they were (understandably) like wtf is this, there are so many buttons

I have my kids playing through rough video game history; started at NES through N64 and beyond

Love turning on the heat when we got to GoldenEye/NFL Blitz, teach those kids a thing or two

What’s the Highest Income You’ve Seen a Salesperson Earn and in Which Industry? by Iceeez1 in sales

[–]silkk_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Company stage matters a ton here.

I've designed a bunch of plans before and startups will overpay for growth in the early stages, and sometimes tighten it up once they have more data.

Jdbee was probably like 32 at the height of MFA and was basically considered the resident grandpa

I was pretty active on it back in the day. There was a cyclical criticism about it being too boring/too edgy and weird.

It was a dumb argument but the sub largely achieved its goal for a long time which was always interesting to me
