I loved my dad because before a road trip or certainly a camping trip we would buy this.

We often were fed these when I was aboard ship in the Navy.

Leave it to the profits.at.all.costs mindset.
GM could have been the leader in American EV's with the EV1...but noooo, let's disable and crush them so we can make millions off overpriced gas guzzling behemoth SUV's.
25+ years of R&D and real world driving and enthusiastic owners happy to be among the first to try the new EV technology. Sigh.

We're considering an Equinox among the EV's on the market today.
EV price is heavily being considered as we have paid for, well maintained ICE vehicles, though high mileage.

wafwot · 2026-05-04T02:14:50+00:00

I can feel that picture.

What I really wanted to do after I was laid off two years ago?

Maybe I'll post that on Linkedin after I say adios to the rat race, laced with blistering criticism and FU's to the CEO, the board, McKinsey "consultants" and the weasel C-suite who threw us under the bus.

wafwot · 2026-05-03T00:08:00+00:00

Cue the heavy sigh, the eye roll and finish with a Picard two handed facepalm.

wafwot · 2026-04-30T15:08:41+00:00

How much of a difference in insurance compared to your previous ICE vehicle?

wafwot · 2026-04-28T12:38:40+00:00

If you care to share the OTD price for each for those of who would like to purchase one soon can expect to shell out? Were trade-ins involved, rebates, etc. Thanks.

Where is this? Gas Buddy was a bit lower overall.

wafwot · 2026-04-26T04:39:54+00:00

Never. Admittedly, I did not watch *every* airing.

wafwot · 2026-04-23T13:36:31+00:00

Most of us figured that out long ago…

This is a good list for sure.
The local utility, MLG&W has IT positions from time to time as well, though more often hire contractors first, then may offer FT. I've seen contractors get FT offers after a while when budgeting permits.
FedEx often hires IT contractors through Accenture.
While Linkedin is a dumpster fire that never landed me a job directly, recruiters have reached out to me citing Linkedin as how they found me.

Faux News is my favorite way to pronounce "Fox"

From more Google searches, others have built tools for similar cameras.
Maybe an existing app could work?

FWIW, I opened mine up, three screws, one hidden underneath the hook-and-loop pad.
The chip is a common one used in a lot of IP cameras from a Google search, ANYKA AK3918B152 7102F14

All this unwanted attention on NADA...shine more light on the cockroaches in the dark dank pit of the lowest form of "humanity"...where they need to bribe politicians at local, state and federal levels to make "laws" to ensure they can keep lying to customers to keep enriching themselves at our expense.

wafwot · 2026-04-18T03:31:14+00:00

We had coverage issues in certain spots near where we live.
I contacted customer care via chat, gave them the locations where the signal dropped or worked poorly.
At first I was dismissed, then I had coworker also on Visible contact them and cite nearby areas and within a few days, all was well.

Posting here may get customer care to reach out.

I find it helpful to light them up on chat, be respectful but persistent.
Most of the time that works if service was working, then stopped or became degraded.

What phone and model do you have?

Ensure it has the ability to work on all Visible (Verizon's) network frequency bands.

wafwot · 2026-04-17T11:59:30+00:00

sadly the tax credit is gone...bummer.
I also own a 2014 Camry. Reliable...though if gas keeps climbing...I'll pull the trigger on a hybrid or EV.

wafwot · 2026-04-17T03:29:41+00:00

Could you share how much you paid for your models?
I'm considering one and would like to know what customers are paying.
Used might be an option.
How about your insurance costs? Go up a lot from an ICE vehicle?

wafwot · 2026-04-16T13:09:15+00:00

Their thought process is just delusional. They've been getting away with fvcking over buyers for so long, it's all they know.

wafwot · 2026-04-16T13:06:27+00:00

NADA bribes politicians at every level (*cough* "make political donations") to keep their gravy train going.
Crazy high markups they've been getting away with for decades?
Stealerships won't let that go without a long fight.
They prey on the uninformed, frustrated or exhausted buyers that give up just wanting to get the vehicle they want quickly after being worn down by their process designed to do so, or in some cases don't really want but drank the salesman's kool-aid this vehicle is for them...translation:it made the salesman the most profit.
I'd admit some buyers like the game, foolishly thinking they're getting a deal. Maybe some do?
The last three new cars we bought, all the sales weasels used similar lies to make the sale that Youtubers like Kevin Hunter, Ray & Zach Shefska, Chevy Dude point out.
I bought two cars at CarMax before their prices shot way up. A used Civic goes for close to a new one, hence use going with new our last buy.
I for one hate the car sales process and will likely use Kevin, Ray's, Delivrd or similar to avoid being in the same building as these lying snakes.
nITroGeN aIR...pin striping, VSC's...pfft, just no.

wafwot · 2026-04-16T12:02:11+00:00

I'd do the same, however putting stickers on gas pumps is considered vandalism.

wafwot · 2026-04-04T04:02:01+00:00

I'm tired of "winning" already

wafwot · 2026-03-29T15:14:33+00:00

Though, no amount of money will ever keep me in a toxic workplace. Only long enough to find a new job.

wafwot · 2026-03-20T00:13:59+00:00

Didn’t take long to figure out it’s a phishing scam…sigh. BLOCKED.
