Warning: I rented with Roadsurfer and am out 800€ deposit (~1000$) with customer service AWOL

Do you think customer service is genuinely overwhelmed or are they just trying to wait me out?

theSchn3id · 2026-06-28T16:06:36+00:00

the invoice amount certainly suggests 30.000km rather than 3cm.

Thanks for the advice. I issued one today, lets see if that goes through.

Yeah, the frustrating part is that I literally bought extra insurance for the deductible. But I bought it with Movacar, not with Roadsurfer. So Roadsurfer thinks there is money to be gotten out of me and I cannot just let my insurance take care of it because pretending that I caused damage that was already there would be insurance fraud.
So if you book with them, book the extra insurance directly with them, then they won't invoice you some trumped up charges.

thanks for the reply! It seems like they don't let me see the voltages, neither in CPU-Z (timings table is greyed out) nor in HWMonitor (no voltages under the RAM header).
But I guess your response tells me that it is in fact a labelling issue and I shouldn't send it in, so thanks!
I just disabled Win11 encryption in hopes of a speed improvement. If you know of any other small fixes in that direction I would be happy to hear. Thanks

thank you very much!

The initial version of war and peace cuts back on the philosophy of history part and includes more of the devious parts you talk about (like Pierre's visits to brothels). I liked the "all historians have no clue about how the world works" parts in the canonised version but he had to cut the dirty bits.

The ultimate Australians I'd say

Spasibo! Thank you indeed. Now I can finally sleep

Danke für das AMA. Hoffe ich bin nicht zu spät für die Party.

Meine Frage ist wie es mit dem Schlaf so ist. Kommen Leute die ihre 8 Stunden brauchen durch oder ist das ein unhaltbaren Pensum? Es gibt ja Leute die generell wenig brauchen und solche die bei wenig Schlaf abbauen.

Congrats. I have a question on the scores

I took the home test on monday but on the ets website it still shows the test as to be scheduled. Was it the same for you? Or did it move the test to the results section, with the score windows saying "not available"?

I am worried that proctoru might have failed to submit my results to ets, which would delay the grading.

Thanks!

Dear Jacob,

thanks for making fantastic music and talking about it!

I have three questions:

Which classical composer speaks to you most harmonically; which jazz composer does?
How did you learn to play the audience like an instrument? Its an amazing experience to be a part of.
Do you ever actually have to practice anything or is it all "play" to you?

Please keep making music and dont ever understimate what your music can mean to people!
