Has anyone reached out for any quotes from realtors since the anti-collusion/monopoly stuff? Have rates come down locally from the typical ~6%?

Just an FYI. Do not sign a long term contract with Mint. I have had service with them for over a year and everything was fine. I renewed my contract for another year because everything was fine and it saved a few bucks. Suddenly the service constantly kicks me to roaming where I work (about an hour away from home). I spent hours on the phone with tech support trying to get the roaming issue resolved to no end. They will not refund me because its outside the 7 day refund policy. It has been weeks of this issue with no change.

In my opinion, this is complete bullshit. I signed up for a phone service. The deal is I give you money, you give me phone service. If you stop providing service, why

Hello there, hoping for some advice and for someone to tell me if I'm being stupid.

I was recently given a ballpark price of $40k to design and install a central heating and cooling system. This is way out of my budget. The company I reached out to will not do a design if they don't do the install.

Some background on the house:

1 story, 1,700sf. ~4.5ft tall below grade crawlspace (basically a half basement). Well insulated, dry, beneath the whole house.

My plan is to reach out to a few local companies and see if I can get somebody to engineer everything and give me a set of plans. I am comfortable working in the crawl space and self performing the ducts, cutting holes in the floor for

Question for all the type 2 fun enthusiasts... I'm a little over halfway to the year goal (100k) for a strava elevation challenge with my friends. Unfortunately we are well past halfway done with the year. I'd also like to take my fitness up a notch to prepare for touring season.

What's your favorite trail to train elevation? The steepest one I've found so far is the M, but the thought of climbing up the M 2-3 days a week is depressing. My next lap up storm castle might be the death of me. Are there any other steep trails I can throw into the mix? I have a laundry list of 4hr+ hikes planned for weekends but I'm looking for a few steep training hikes/runs to efficiently grind out some eleva

Can we send it today or do we need to be careful? I skied Sunday and it felt like fighting for my life (ice, ice everywhere). Can we let loose a little today? I've never skied this type of conditions before (big dump on top of solid ice)

Does anyone know of any local shops that are having end of season sales for ski/boarding gear? I'd rather support local than the online chains. We're looking for a pair of ski boots and possibly some new skis.

Thanks!

I've been eating well and its time to restore some balance to my life. What's the best all you can eat experience in/near Bozeman? I'm having a hard time finding anything except for one indian lunch buffet.

Hello,

Having some trouble with my elgato HD60S+ reverting to 120hz and crashing when I open up a game.

The gaming PC is connected directly to the 240hz monitor via DP. The gaming pc is connected via HDMI to the HD60S+. The HD60S+ is connected via USB 3.0 to my streaming laptop (60hz display if that matters). I extended the displays in windows display settings, then I "clone with" my 240hz monitor to the elgato. It shows that my monitor has 240hz and my elgato has 120hz, so I change the elgato to 60hz. I then go into Nvidia control panel and verify the refresh rates are still 240/60 and change to no scaling. After all this, my desktop finally displayed in streamlabs OBS on my streaming P

Hey there,

So I finally got everything put together on my 1st PC build. Booted up, windows works, bios flashed, good to go.

My question is, what can I be doing to maximize my performance? I turned on XMP and game boost in the BIOS, and updated all my drivers for graphics card and updated windows.

What am I missing? Is there a comprehensive "to-do" list somewhere that tells you everything you should do to get the most out of your rig? I stumbled on XMP reading around on the internet so I feel like I am missing something.

Also, how can I get rid of windows bloatware?

THanks!

Hello, I have been researching and hunting for parts for weeks now. This is my final build, ready to start putting things together. do you see anything wrong or recommended upgrades/downgrades or changes? I was going to do 6900xt due to the huge price difference but seeing as I can't find a 5900x or 5950x to save my life, I decided to grab a 3090 when I found one at micro center.

Thanks for your help and advice!

Hello,

I have not built a proper PC in ages and am looking to get back into the swing of things. I'm hoping to build something that will last me 5-7 years. I've only had 2 computers in the past 16 years, so I have some money saved up for a new one and I'd like to make it last!

For GPU I'm hoping to pick up a 6900XT or 6800XT when they come out.

This is purely a gaming rig, goal is max FPS + nice graphics.

Any and all advice is appreciated, I have been gaming on a laptop for a few years now and don't know what is important in builds these days. I tried to do as much research as possible (tiers, what AMD recommends for RAM speeds, etc etc) and below is what I came up with.

Value wise, w

I tried the search and there hasn't been a post in awhile.

Sounds like hibachi grill and super moon were popular, are those still the tried and true go to spots for eating a weekend worth of food in 1 sitting? I've been to super moon a couple times but I need a change of pace for my semi annual feasting.

What are your favorite spots?

Soo my 2013 tacoma is having some trouble starting up in the cold weather (20-40F, not even that cold).

It takes a a few seconds (3-8) of turning the ignition while the engine starts to flip over before it starts. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

hey everyone, I'm looking to do a few day road trip (4-7 days) heading northeast. I've been living in Baltimore for a couple years now but feel like I've barely seen anything up there.

Does anyone have any recommendations for must see places/events/foods/hikes etc? I'm equipped for anything except winter camping. I was planning on skipping NY and Philly since I've already been.

Right now the only things on my list are ski at Stowe (epic pass) and eat a lobster roll in maine. I saw there is 1 hot spring in NY (Lebanon Spring) and 1 in Massachusetts (Sand Spring), are these accessible in winter? This is a sadly short list but I honestly don't know much about the region.

I'd really apprec
