My brother was going to move to the US, so instead of selling/trading in my car (Nissan Versa 2008), I kept it for him to have when he got here.

Well, Covid happened and it took him an extra 3 years to get here. In that time the car has just been sitting in my driveway, gathering mold and generally not in shape to drive (Don't know what it would take to get it working again).

We gave him a different car when he got here, so looking to get rid of the Versa. We wanted to know what it would take to fix it up and give to someone in need, so had a friend of a friend take a look. After looking at it, he said he wanted to take it and fix it up.

So current details of the car:

I’m in the process of purchasing a used Buick. It’s just out of warranty. I was great, except the backup camera was broken.

I told them I would purchase if they fixed it. So they are fixing it and I’m supposed to go pick it up Monday. I’ve signed loan stuff and all that, but second guessing my purchase now.

I’m pretty sure I still want it, but wondering if I wanted to pull out of the deal, would I be able to?

Also, I’m in Texas. The dealer has a money back guarantee listed on their site. 5 day, or 250 mile return with no questions asked. Not sure how legit that is though.

I have home automation set to open my garage doors automatically when I get home. I have 2 doors, but the situation is that I switch the car I’m driving often.

I would love to open the door to the car I’m currently driving, but doesn’t seem like there’s a way to do it.

My latest solution was to save a value to file based on which cars Bluetooth I connect to with a personal shortcut. But then it doesn’t seem like I can actually access the file with a home automation.

Maybe this has been asked before, but I couldn’t find anything about it. Any ideas? Doesn’t seem possible with the options available.

My charger just barely reaches my cars charging port. I have to have the cord slightly run over the hood of my MY.

If my outlet was 2 feet over, it would be perfect. But I’m wondering if I could just use a short extension cord instead.

Is that frowned upon? It would be daily usage, so wondering if I need to move my outlet over.

Edit: I should have mentioned that this is for a nema 14-50 outlet.

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. I am trying to add to a list of items in my form. I have searched for a couple days, and tried a lot of variations of things, but I'm at my wits end. I'm hoping someone can help me with it.

I have a ViewModel like this:

    public class CustomerFormViewModel
    {
        public Customer Customer { get; set; }

        [Remote("DoesCustomerExist", "Customers", HttpMethod = "POST", ErrorMessage = "There is already a customer by that name. Please enter another name.")]
        public string CustomerName
        {
            get { return Customer.Name; }
            set { Customer.Name = value; }

I'm trying to optimize this as much as I can. Is there a way to optimize this further? (Besides changing the method signature)

 public string[] BuildFullNameArray(
			IEnumerable<string> clientFirstNames,
			IEnumerable<string> clientMiddleNames,
			IEnumerable<string> clientLastNames)
		{
			var firstNames = clientFirstNames as List<string> ?? clientFirstNames.ToList();
			var middleNames = clientMiddleNames as List<string> ?? clientMiddleNames.ToList();
			var lastNames = clientLastNames as List<string> ?? clientLastNames.ToList();

			for (int i = 0; i < firstNames.Count; i++)
			{
				firstNames[

I have a verbal confirmation from this company that they want to make a formal offer. I got this in an email from them today.

"could you let me know what sort of salary range you’d be looking for if you were to join us here at TechCompany. As you know, we’re a startup so I want to make sure we’re in line with expectations."

I know rule 1 is to never give a number first, but how do you think you would answer?

It's for a senior position, and I think I hold all the bargaining power right now since all the guys there now are junior. Any thoughts?

Hi all,

We got an offer accepted and went under contract with the seller on Thursday 17th September. The price was 368,000. During our option period, which was ending the following Friday 25th, we found some issues with the roof, and asked the seller to pay for half of the roof repairs (15,000 in total). He wanted to get his own estimate, so we extended the contract until the following Friday Oct 2nd. After getting his own estimate, we got the seller to go split the cost with us, and increased the sales price to 375,550.

Now, we learned that the appraisal was done during our initial option period (We didn't ask for the appraisal yet, the lender ordered it and asked for us to pay the follow

Hi all,

I will be moving from Los Angeles to Houston in a month, and I am not sure what the best course of action is regarding health insurance. I am leaving my current job on the 19th, and then making the move to Houston on the 9th of July. I start my new job the 13th, and I am not eligible for company insurance for another 30 days. I need to get insurance for me (32) and my daughter (almost 3).

So I would need to get coverage that would cover me 19th Jun to 9th July in Los Angeles, then coverage from the 10th to 30+ days after that in Houston.

The only thing I can come up with right now is getting temporary insurance, but I'm not really sure what the best plan of action is. I am not too
