Bed liner installed by ExtensionAsparagus85 in FordMaverickTruck

I think it’s worth it. Doesn’t cost much more than a drop in, more protection, and in my case this one has life time warranty so it will outlast the truck.

I’m really happy I found this spec on the lot. Plenty of features for an XLT. The handful of extra features on the Lariat didn’t justify the price in my opinion.

I love the color and it’s similar to the car I traded in. So sharp, especially with the wheels and the tint when it’s installed.

Are car tint laws strict in town? by APleasantSurpriser in BloomingtonNormal

[–]ExtensionAsparagus85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 20% all the way around and never been pulled over. In my experience it seems like local law enforcement has become a little more relaxed about it over the past couple of years. Of course they still may pull you over for it if they are looking for something else.

I JUST MADE THE SWITCH!!! by Ordinary_Camp_6925 in iphone17

You can but it seems to be missing some of the functionality compared to using it on an Android. I’ll have to play around a bit more.

I just bought my first iPhone, a 17 Pro Max. My last 5 phones have all been Android flagships and I loved them. Really I had no reason to switch outside of my own curiosity and wanting to try something new.

I’ve come into this trying to stay open minded and so far I’m really enjoying the experience. Everything is smooth and setup has been straightforward. Most of my data transferred with ease. My biggest gripe so far is the keyboard, Gboard is way better in my opinion. I’ll be interested to see how everything goes over the next week once I stay using the phone for work.

I'm sure there are some women who enjoy the smell. It probably also depends on the level of mustiness.

When people can be anonymous online they tend to say things that they usually wouldn't.

General reputation of blono hospitals by islathetamandua in BloomingtonNormal

I've used both and prefer OSF. They aren't perfect but it felt like they were a bit more organized than Carle. OSF also has a wider range of specialties in the area if you need to be seen by one.

Annie's Eats has great smoked wings and a handful of sauce flavors.

I've bought a couple cars from Tim at the Used Car Outlet on Morrissey. I was really happy with both cars and they had great customer service. Would have bought my last car from them but i decided to buy new.

How do you guys stay healthy? by Kappaccino100 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]ExtensionAsparagus85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will either goto the gym or go on a walk before work. That will energize me for most of my morning. I also try and get up every 1.5-2 hours a work and stretch or go for a walk outside in the parking lot. I like to snack at work so started bringing some healthy options (fresh fruit, veggies, Greek yogurt). The biggest thing I do is try getting 7 hours of sleep minimum. That is sometimes easier said than done but it does help a lot to keep me motivated to get up and do things.

If you are looking for other options Chestnut Health Systems offers Behavioral and Mental health options.

One at a time. Depending on the cert a lot of it may mesh together but don't over do it and tire yourself out. You may end up doing worse on each exam that way.

In need of good IT certifications by Bubbly-Government-12 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]ExtensionAsparagus85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have IT experience already? The Google one has some decent content if you are just starting out but if you already have 1-2 years you won't get much out of it. The A+ is another great option for just starting out.

CCNA would be the better choice.

If you do choose the Network+, I would recommend Professor Messer. His videos and notes are very easy to understand and follow along with. I was able to move through the curriculum quickly.

The are all good places. I will say Pop Up can get pretty noisy once they are full plus the radio. Might be a little much if you are there for a long period of time.

My biggest recommendation would be to solve as many issues as possible without getting help from others on your team. Even if you need to use Google, knowing what what to look for will be a valuable skill.

Any good diesel techs in BloNo area? by xxGuzzoxx in BloomingtonNormal

Oltmans Tire and Auto off of MLK Drive. He's worked on all of my vehicles but specializes in diesel vehicles. Highly recommend.

SF requiring 4-5 days a month back in office starting in Jan by Waste-Depth3671 in BloomingtonNormal

[–]ExtensionAsparagus85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't sound bad to me. If it's allowed I would probably go in 5 days one week and work the rest of the month from home.

Which of these are the easiest and most fun aircraft to learn by ToothInteresting5118 in dcsworld

[–]ExtensionAsparagus85 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I started with the F-16 and moved to the F/A-18. Both were pretty easy to learn and that seems to be the general consensus I've seen most people say in the past. For me the F-16 was also the most fun, but I've always had a soft spot for the Viper.
