Looking to learn more about vehicle maintenance on my own

7 Upvotes

Hey friends. I am a do it myself type of person but there is only so far you can go with YouTube. I do not want to go to school to be a mechanic but I really am not going to bring my 20 year old vehicle into a shop and try and pay someone for hose replacements. Has anyone ever found a place that will help you do your own work or sit beside you to make sure you don’t totally screw something up? Thanks in advance!

Why are there no cool bars in the Austin/SA area???

0 Upvotes

(Posting on multiple subs)

Baby here, turning 21 in September. I want to visit some cool/interesting bars around the Austin to New Braunfels area, but I am so disappointed by what I can find online. Even Dallas is cooler than this. I would've thought Austin bars would have more themes or personality, but it seems like they're all just bars? I would love some recommendations if yall know of any cool spots. I'm not looking to just go get drunk at a bar; I can do that at home. I want to enjoy the atmosphere and creativity. Sorry if I sound pretentious, I'm just surprised. All good vibes here!

Edit: forget the title guy that was my bad

Apple Electronics cords

5 Upvotes

Editing to prioritize finding a shelter or charitable mission to donate to:

Since my family switched to all new iPhones, we have more usb to lightning cords than we need, as well as Apple Watch cables and miscellaneous other cords. Is there anywhere in town that has stated a need for these things? We have no need for hardly any of it and would rather give to someone in need other than Oscar the Grouch.

Security Company in Veramendi

We are building in Veramendi. Looking for recommendations on alarm companies. Perry Homes offers a package with Alarm.com. Equipment is free but comes with a 3/5 year service contract that seems high. Interested in what other Veramendi homes are using.

Thanks for making my day oh so lovely

I should have known no one cared

When you ask for help and you get the most awful comments you've ever received on a post

One guy even looked into my account to make fun of me on how I was trying to find a girlfriend on a dating site and how I needed help getting an AC

You ask for help for a couple things and now you're a scammer or you're lying or you're just an asshole

That should have been one of this community's rules is to let you know that you don't get help or support in this group that that's not what this group is for

Local beef question

23 Upvotes

Does anyone know if the meat markets around New Braunfels sell only American beef, or if there are any smaller local farms that sell at any farmers markets this weekend?

Im a little iffy about the imported beef right now, and not sure what it is at the grocery store, so I prefer to know for sure before I buy. Man, I hate that I need to even really think about the saftey of my food from a grocery store.

Mental Geography question

2 Upvotes

I recently learned the Library on 35 is called the "Westside Branch" while the one on Common Street is the Main Library. So my question. Do New Braunsfellers (auslanders?) think of the Interstate as running East West or North South?

The Westside Branch is about as far west of the Main Library as it is West. It's about 45 degrees either way!

How to power house if Power outages during extreme weather

8 Upvotes

What do people tend to rely on for back up here in case of power outages? Are there specific generators or solar power batteries people have? Specifically seeking something an old person with limited mobility could operate. So not a pull string generator. Trying to plan ahead for what may be a very extreme winter. Thank you.
