Does anybody actually ship priority?

I am thinking of just going prirority going forward vs ground. Thoughts? I live in a super remote area and finding free boxes is hard.

Is flight attendant worth the extra money or save and just go Shimano?

I been a Sram guy for awhile. All my bikes have Sram AXS/Transmission. Flight attendant has always peaked my interest but has been a bit expensive to purchase. On the other hand I have heard good things about Shimano XT and that it just works. I'd probably wear that groupset out before deciding to go di2. Curious what others thoughts are.

Did I make a mistake ordering the Lenovo Legion Gen 5 tablet. Ordered it for $589.

So I snatched this tablet because or all the discounts I got with it. I am mostly planning one using GFN. And maybe try getting into emulation. I am starting to cast doubts if this is the right tablet for my needs. I was looking at the Samsung galaxy s11 and I love that has oled. My main concern is the display on the lenovo. I am worried I may have a hard time seeing enemies from a distance with the 8.8 display for FPS games. Anybody find this to be an issue? And does the display suck compare to oled. I have a s Gamesir 8 and planned one using one of these like a gaming handheld

Joined the club. Lenovo legion Gen 5.

Super stoked I plan on using this to steam battlefield 6 and the new 007 game. May try some emulation but I have no idea how to do that. This should pair well with my gamesir 8+ controller.

Do i save money and go with the lenovo gen 3 or get the 5 for geforce now

I am mostly going to be using this to play games on GFN and really any emulating. Mostly playing battlefield 6 and black flag and 007. I have a gamesir8 plus controller as well.

eBay sellers: how do you deal with feedback like this? Is there any realistic chance of getting something this ridiculous removed?

I recently sold a toy train on eBay and shipped it out promptly after the sale. I packaged it carefully and got it on its way right away.

Then I get hit with a negative feedback because the package arrived late—which somehow became my fault and the buyer complained about the shipping cost.

But it gets better.

They also claimed the toy train was poorly packaged, while at the same time saying it arrived in great condition. If the packaging was supposedly that bad, how did the train arrive perfectly fine?

And then they claimed the toy train smelled like cigarette smoke.

I. DON'T. SMOKE.

The train was brand new and never used.

I was polite and asked for feedback on the packaging. I even gave the buyer 20% off the item

I've maintained a 100% positive feedback rating, so getting a negative over things that were outside my control is incredibly frustrating.

So apparently I’m responsible for the carrier taking too long, responsible for the shipping cost, somehow shipped something in “poor packaging” despite it arriving in great condition, AND managed to make a brand-new toy train smell like cigarettes despite not even smoking.

At this point, I'm just baffled. Some buyers will apparently find absolutely anything to complain about.

Lenovo Legion Gen 5 tablet or the Samsung galaxy S11 tablet for GFN?

I am stuck between these two tablets I really enjoy the oled experience I get from my fold 8 for gaming on the go but want something where I can make the tablet a dedicated gaming handheld so I am not always taking my case off my fold 8 for my gamesir 8 plus c9ntroller. I mostly play battlefield 6 and I think the galaxy would help me see enemies further away in the game. Anybody gamed on both?

Lenovo Legion Tab Gen3 vs Gen5

Lenovo Legion Tab Gen3 vs Gen5

Those who have bought or upgraded to the 5th Gen, how big is the difference between the SD 8 Gen3 and 8 Elite Gen 5?

I am thinking here about emulation of different consoles and Gamenative/Gamehub experiences. And playing on geforce now. I mostly play battlefield 6

Finally left a role of 12 months. And stood up for myself.

I left my job after 12 months because the environment had become completely toxic. I tried to make it work, showed up every day, did my job, and took on whatever was thrown at me, but eventually I realized the situation wasn’t going to change. What really pushed me over the edge was feeling completely undervalued. After taking on more responsibility, my “raise” ended up being a $5 Starbucks gift card and a candy apple. That pretty much summed up how they viewed my effort.

One thing that always stuck with me was how the owner held a grudge because I didn’t go to her “Christmas in July” office party… which was on a Sunday. Somehow that became a personal issue and just added to the feeling that everything was based on favoritism and emotions instead of professionalism.

I eventually found another opportunity and put in my notice. I expected to leave professionally, but instead the director came into my office, shut the door, and fired me. Then she proceeded to give me advice about how I should stay in a role longer than 12 months next time because leaving too soon doesn’t look good.

I couldn’t help but laugh. I told her, “That’s interesting advice. You should have stayed in your marriage longer than 3 years, but wasn’t that a toxic relationship too?” Basically, the director tried to argue that is not the same situation. Then I said but you call us all family here. Plus did you not lay off about 6 family members this year.

That definitely didn’t go over well. But honestly, that moment confirmed I was making the right decision. I’m done staying somewhere just to make other people comfortable. I know what I bring to the table, I know my worth, and sometimes the best thing you can do is walk away from a place that doesn’t value you.

Do most of you have a fat bike for the winter months or do you put your XC bike away for the winter?

Asking for a friend lol thinking of getting a XC bike to continue riding my trails in the winter. I am from the Midwest so this really only applies to people that actually get snow.

IBIS Ripley AF vs the Orbea Oiz

Wife and I went out to test ride some new bikes. My wife is getting a Orbea Oiz and I am thinking of getting an Oiz too but I then test rode a Ripley. I have always had XC bikes as I love the pedal efficiency of them and I also do a lot of riding on pavement and gravel to my trails. Hence why the orbea has been in my list. However, I kinda am interested in these longer travel trail bikes but I am not sure how much I would like pedaling this to my trails with its travel or doing XC events on it. But I keep hearing raving reviews on the Ripley. Since I can't test ride this bike in my trails how good are they actually compared to an Oiz?
