  1. The mechanism is all one piece, that is how they are able to get it so small. Any key issues is a top case replacement (same with touchpad).
  2. They are going to have to replace the top case. No idea on cost for that, but assume a few hundred bucks.
  3. Just got a text we are back up.
  4. Just got a text that we are out again in 78748. Had been good since Thursday morning. Interestingly enough they claim the outage started on Thursday, So I’m wondering if this is a system issue.
  5. Got power back at 11:45, and lost it again an hour later. First time since 7am yesterday. Got it back again at 2:30, been back ever since. Woke up expecting to see lots of outages fixed on the map, and wow. We were a group of 5500, so maybe we got prioritized, but we were without power for pretty much the entire 21 freeze, so color me surprised.
  6. Shit is melting like crazy down in south Austin. My roof is almost ice free and dry.
  7. Slaughter/Manchaca
  8. Power out in 78748
  9. I’m literally about 10 inches from being that guy.
  10. Went outside to grab firewood, and counted 9 different limbs/trees cracking and falling within a minute. Sounds like a war zone. Driveway and street in front of my house are still just wet, not ice. Damn yard is one giant puddle. If this were 2-3 degrees colder, I’d be in trouble.
  11. Lost half of a mature Cedar Elm here in 78748. Thankfully it was on the property line with the COA drainage ditch, and all fell into it.
  12. Nah, but 10 sanding trucks would do. Hell, I’m actually surprised some enterprising northern city hasn’t rented out a fleet of of their usual crews to come down south for events like this. Y’all likely wouldn’t miss them and could probably have a nice little addition to the cities coffers.
  13. damnnit, second time in 5 minutes. We need the ba-dum-tish monkey gif as a rep option!
  14. you get the laugh rep, only because we don't have a ba-dum-tish rep.
  15. Isn't it obvious? We were finally onto him about his rain magnet to Bee Caves. Sucked all the rain from Austin for years, and we finally recognized the pattern.
  16. I wanna believe you, but probably gonna take another winter or two.
  17. Yup, 2021 PTSD is real.
  18. sorry, forgot the: 's mom
  19. South Austin, they are just wet.
  20. I understand you not going back to read that drivel, but the models were showing gloom and doom starting Wednesday and Thursday, and we were left to interpret and argue about them on our own! /GretaThornbergHowDareYou But yeah, things started to confirm model wise Sunday afternoon. Appreciate the rundown.
  21. I mean, we needed you here last week! Good to see you are still kicking, just some good natured ribbing at this point.
  22. Changed usernames when we lost the shag. And yes, right there with you. Covid plus having a kid has me down to 3 trips in the last 3 years.
  23. Will set aside a stop at a swimming hole next kayak trip. If you can pull yourself away from your forecasting duties!
  24. If the @phdhorn is Franky rumors are true, that actually makes some sense if you've met @MissingInAction in person. Some strong resemblances. There may be something to this conspiracy!
  25. He's been MIA for a while. Since before TGiving. He has done this before, where he takes long breaks.
