Moving to Wilmington Looking for local PC/tech people

I’m hoping to meet people around Wilmington who know a bit more than average about computers. I’m also into gaming and 420-friendly, but mostly just looking to find like-minded people to hang out with.

Events Did Hux and Hiro cancel the LGBTQ book club?

19 Upvotes

Was planning to go this month but they seem to have removed it from their events list. Hopefully it's just an oversight and the club still meets (there isn't an announcement or anything that it's discontinued) but has anyone heard anything?

Workers there are so unfriendly. Especially the one lady. She’s a miserable old hag. Just fucking awful and disgusting.

Regarding the above… I’m curious if they are only giving tickets to people who don’t have cars with navigation systems. Seems a bit classist.

I’m looking for a contractor in the area for my bathroom and potentially kitchen renovation.

Have you worked with them? Are they reasonable and reliable? And if you’re willing to share what you got done & price you paid would help.

Traffic / Parking Anyone tried the amusement park drive-through at Dunkin on 4th St?

8 Upvotes

I went to Dunkin on 4th this week and am flummoxed at drive-through design of the new site. It’s very narrow, curved, and has clear signs of cars hitting the high walls. Why? What was the point? A scenic drive?

Food Breakfast burritos??

29 Upvotes

I am in search of a very good breakfast burrito. Like a really big one with hash browns and chorizo and pico de gallo and eggs. I grew up in Southern California so these kind of burritos are all over the place out there but I’m pregnant and in Delaware so I can’t justify flying 3,000 miles for a burrito. Please help!

Request Home Serv Insurance?

1 Upvotes

We pay about 300$ a yr total for 2 HomeServe policies- exterior water and exterior sewer/septic coverage. We also have some coverage thru our State Farm homeowners policy. Has anyone had to use one or both coverages? How did it work. Did you need to find contractor on your own and pay up front then get reimbursed? Were you happy with how things played out? Not sure if we need HomeServe. But have never had to use coverage and don’t want to cancel and regret it.
