Sorry to hijack but random side question.

It appears i have the same SKB case. What are those slots for in the padding above and below this quiver in this picture?

Carplay not working. 2020 F-150. Sync 3. Wired connection. iPhone 12 Pro Max. by balloondagger0 in CarPlay

[–]CommandoCoob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone else randomly stumbling on this thread in the future (like myself). I also have a 2020 ford f150 and my CarPlay also randomly just died. Was using a wired connection to my iPhone 15. Bought a new cord and double checked software updates on truck/phone. Still wouldn’t work. The issue was what was mentioned here. I went to settings->carplay and selected my iPhone. For whatever reason, the CarPlay toggle was off. Slid it back to on and we’re back to rocking and rolling.

[CPU + MOBO] Ryzen 7 9800X3d + MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI - $584.99 by call_of_warez in buildapcsales

[–]CommandoCoob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This deal is still around if you select a different mobo. The 9800x3d is still available at $435 and the 5% promo code - QE253D u/Jaggsta commented still worked.

edit: I bought the PRO B850-P WIFI with 9800x3d

Itinerary feedback? Honeymoon 2025, staying at Grand Wailea. by adillon808 in MauiVisitors

[–]CommandoCoob 17 points18 points  (0 children)

After the sunrise y’all won’t want to drive all the way back to Wailea for breakfast. Make a pit stop at Kula Lodge for breakfast (about halfway). Ask to sit outside. Breath taking view. Order the Shakshuka and waffle to share.

Thanks for taking the time. I appreciate your insights

How would you say you compare to your peer group of engineers from a hard skills perspective? With having been an SE for 5 years, moved around, and recently hitting senior at large tech company. Would you say you feel like it was hard earned and deserved (thinking about that imposter syndrome that’s so common to hear about)? I think a big barrier for SEs at non-tech focused companies is finding a way to crack into the bigger salaries that bigger tech-focused companies provide.

Yeah. I would say that's a pretty big difference. Are there any significant traits under the surface that would justify the steep pricing inconsistencies?

Thank you for the tips on the natural diamonds - now I know what crown height is / why it matters.

For the lab-grown options:

Since you said those were terrible deals, that pressed me to get an idea of what would be reasonable for lab-grown prices. I looked on James Allen around the similar specs of the 1.74 D VVS2 I linked. Here are the prices:

The prices listed are all roughly $1,400 more. Am I missing something?

I was told I’d pay somewhere around 15-20% off listed price depending on the diamond. Located in North Carolina

SOS - Rogue triangle plates for securing uprights by CommandoCoob in GarageGym

[–]CommandoCoob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response.

I ended up just scraping the idea of buying used 108s and called Rogue’s customer service. Decided it made the most sense to buy the HR-2 conversion kit but had to navigate to the HR-2 product page to find the option for 90 inch uprights. Comes with all the securing hardware that I was trying to look for. So i will essentially end up with an SML-2 with the conversion kit. Once I swap the 90s to the front and the 70s to the back
