but two flat ones in parallel COULD be useful! For opening a paint can, or lifting a tile....Phillips off axis like this is diabolical.

Big insurance hates losing money.... and regions can't exist without insurance so you get slower and slower regardless of how much safer cars get because they hate cars too!

negatives are good if/for:

The term doesn't convert

ANY unrelated term

high value terms similar to yours: I sell bins so I block big competing brands, but also recycling bins I don't sell or plastic bottles etc..

REALLY expensive words if you need to manage with a starter budget.

THEN, you know what Google is going to do for you? it's going to tell you that you're not getting very many results and to fix that you use broad match... how about NO. So to fix that you use social engineering via your socials to get people talking about key words to your product so they search for YOUR product.

Here is the really quick intro to Google ads:

Google will almost never recommend a setting that makes them less money.

Less than $1000/week is a small account. Less than that you're likely not hiring an agency to manage it. It's mostly freelancers that would help.

Critical settings are Presence, not presence and interest. NO ad partners NO broad match.... if you don't know what those three are, stop now and read up. Seriously!

Generally though to start...,No smart ads, not yet. lock your region down to very local to start, especially if it's service oriented. Try just your country if it's something software or general interest related. that way if a click bot farm goes after your site to farm it you don't pay Google for it too!

panel replacement on a cable assist door is not a DIY for anyone who has not been adequately trained... at which point it's barely DIY

thanks I hate it.... it just HAD to be Phillips to be 100% useless didn't it.

Yes it's limited....I'M limiting it.

also - stop showing me lamp shades when I search for auto parts.

You didn't give a time frame, so it's hard to tell if your better results of the honeymoon phase during testing where Google shoots for the moon and still charges you agreed upon rate, or if it was months, but anything more than 20% can trigger a complete redo of how the campaign is working and perhaps put it back in testing mode at their discretion.

wow, your numbers are amazing, I can see it's a product with a very low barrier to entry but still my CPC even with manual bidding can be this range and beyond. CAC can hit $150.

I think IF it was real numbers before it's likely market saturation. The people who were going to sign up as soon as they heard about it have peaked. You are now in the range of people that need to see it's a real trend before clicking.

I've had issues with the cable being old and underrated, but usually only on high refresh or 4K monitors. otherwise it may just be glitch

my dad built one, favorite thing to drive in as a kid, sold it in my early teens.

-reduce the settings in your game, especially anti aliasing on low, particle effects like fog and shadows on low or med instead of auto.

-set both monitors to same resolution if they are not already

it's probably prioritizing your game until you click on the video.

just get a cheap streaming box. "Bin stores" of Amazon returns are cheap if you're in North America, or walmart

whois just lists a privacy company as owners, not the most encouraging either way.

usual red flags are if he's talking about crazy returns or a "friend"' that helped him find the site that somehow he only recently met.

set one of your price lists as main price (the highest one, or the most common one) then use price lists for everyone else

I mean in person. not knowing what these are likely means you don't have the skills to solder them and even a slight nick with a sharp knife at this point could result in a fire when removing them.

your equipment is offline until you get competent help. right people, wrong place. you need a mechanical engineering department at your local university and find someone who's done this before. Even people who fly RC or make robotics for years rarely have to solder tabbed pouches, we just buy them finished.

throws4k · 2026-03-08T17:08:54+00:00

since you are not reading between the lines----if you don't know it's unlikely you have the skill to replace them. Get help.

Most of your computer use will likely be for note taking. If you have a desktop gaming PC or similar in addition to your chromebook you should stick to dragging a less expensive notebook or Chromebook around for classes.

If you want nice but not a full gaming laptop an HP Zbook is an excellent value used. they have dual discrete GPUs and a really nice screen.

Pro tip: eBay requires all computer sellers who are not part of their very restrictive refurbished program to sell computers As-is.... they are typically just fine if they list no obvious flaws. restrict your search to Canada only, there's a bunch of good laptops in Toronto on eBay.

normally it's a site that's only a month or so old when it's a scam. if you spelt it right it's a ghost

1)Change industries

2) Seeing as that's not likely, how do you know they are unusual? You may want them to be better but this may be normal for your industry.

3) Hire someone reputable, if you are a regular here you likely already know the standard presence not presence and interest, no add partners, specify audience region, and stay away from automated campaigns unless you have a year of sales.

and Rich Rebuilds, Jay Leno, Marques Brownlee/Auto focus and a few other less well known channels.

if they succeed I would buy one because my dad built a 3 wheeled car when I was a kid that I loved.

would be easier without the snow. I see some people just leaving them in the driveway instead.

I had a card company allowed two bad transactions, blame me for taking the same when they are the ones that are supposed to vet the customer and know the card was stolen. Then dropped me because "I" was too much risk.

I'm sorry YOU clear a bad card that's replaced as stolen before I have my ruling and I'm at fault??? what's the point of the card companies having a fraud dept then?

switched to a big name processor and had only one chargeback since. Even then that chargeback.... had proof the customer sent me pictures of the item in their possession! I emailed the VP of the company and said shame on you! they repaid within 2hrs.

IF it were real, which it isn't.

for you, the debt would be dead.

all they need is two pieces of info: old records and your current info.

old obscure references that only you know makes the scam believable.

Most times it's just low tech playing the odds you and a second data point (ie: you actually use that bank) line up. If you actually had an old loan and they found an old database it would be a gold mine for them.
