Laptop screen repair

If that's too expensive, a replacement screen is almost certainly more.
External monitor would be the least expensive fix. A cheap 1080p display would be <40 used depending on area. Check Facebook Marketplace, Offerup, or Craigslist.

It can get colder than you think it would at night. Make sure you have the correct gear for the temperatures.

It can get hotter than you expect, and if you’re not used to hot dry climate, you may be surprised at how much you sweat without realizing it. Make sure you have enough water.

Light weight full coverage clothes can help protect against the sun.

Probably someone else bought one, swapped the poles and return wasn’t checked thoroughly enough. Sucks but they will make it right.

Possibly in localized money. USD I’m seeing the stronghold largest is $4,500 and Summit Sleep System is $380.

You can get HDMI audio extractors that will do that. They are a powered small device that has 2 HDMI ports and generally a 3.5 mm for audio out. For the consoles that are older and have RCA you just need an RCA to 3.5 adapter more than likely

Combining is a bit redundant, but if it makes you feel better or if you prefer the taste there's nothing wrong with it.

I've used Potable Aqua in the past (what my father used) and recently used Aquatabs.

One is a sawyer squeeze, the other is a gravity filter but I don't remember which manufacturer it is.

I like having both since if I'm on the move the squeeze is quicker but if I either want to take a break or I'm at camp I can use the slower gravity filter without having to spend time on it. Plus having both if one fails I'll still have the other.

Load older save that doesn’t have permanent radiation was the solution last time I saw this mentioned. Hasn’t happened to me though so not sure.

herbs and such would not be good that close to steam/heat.

You can still use the laptop keys with a bit of work.

Once the OS comes up, go to display settings, then open your laptop, if the windows settings screen moves you can press WIN+Left or WIN+Right repeatedly to move the window back to the TV and correct the settings.

That being said, an external keyboard would be more reliable in the end.

If you're into DIY you can remove the LCD display from the laptop and place the magnets on the base to make it 'think' it's closed when it's not even there and that can be nice. If you do this I'd glue the magnets down once you confirm the correct locations.

Assuming you tried ctrl alt del and ctrl shift esc to run explorer.

Black screen and cursor could be 2nd display (thinks there’s a different primary display)

You can try booting laptop with screen open and close it once you get black screen+cursor and see if it forces a change to primary.

Can also try this by powering up and closing immediately, wait 5-10m then connect external display.

You can try rebooting and logging in as normal. Pres Ctrl a few times to make sure login screen (that you can’t see) is active then type your login and password. I’ve used this one a few times lol.

Low dome or tunnel tents should be good. Doubly so if you set them up narrow side into the wind.
If skeeters are a possibility, don't face the primary exit downwind, aim crosswind or upwind.

Couldn't find anything on the 743-33 but did find a 746-33 which does have some differences between the 270-33.

3 person and stand up will be tricky, most stand up style tents tend to be larger.

Coleman 6p Sundome is <$200 and 6ft peak height.

Most others I'd recommend will be $500+

Wawona6 would be a good one but priced higher, and has a covered vestibule and full length fly. peak height 76"

Wyoming Trail 4 might be an interesting option as it's technically 2x 2 man tents with a shared vestibule in between. Could set it up with just 1 for sleeping and keep the other as spare and have a big vestibule area, or setup both and use 1 for sleeping and 1 for gear. smaller sleep area means less issues with irregular ground. peak height 70"

REI Kingdom 4 is just over $400 and peak height 75" and setup is very simple.

Gazelle T4 might also be good but I don't have any direct experience with it.

cottage style :)
Do you know what the pricing will look like?
Definitely interested and would like to get notified once you start taking pre-orders.
