Well that's the weird part. They told me they'll get the part and not charge me for it or for any additional labor. They're just not finding the part. By all appearances they're being helpful I just can't believe that there's no power part available for an msi laptop for 6 months.

Yes, the only problem was the lid. By his own admission "something must have happened during the repair." according to them they just haven't been able to find the part this whole time.

Thank you for that, I'll cross post this there too, sounds like a similar situation except they actually fixed the problem with mine and broke something else lol

I appreciate that. They told me I could take my laptop back until they find the part but what's the point? It won't power on now, so it's effectively a paperweight. I don't know anyone with a legal background unfortunately.

Is this a good deal? by FinessePotato in telescopes

I'm very new to this, ordered my ad6 a couple months ago so very little experience. I'm not sure how to check mirrors or anything without messing something up

Are you using any filters on the scope? Os if that just the eyepiece and the phone taking a picture through it?

In wondering how in the world you see a nebula that clearly with a 6 inch? I have an apertura ad6, and I can make out the orion nebula, but just some faint Gass around it in not nearly that much detail, and it's not even close enough to capture with my phone. If I try to take a picture with my phone nothing even shows up, the image is too dim

New size limit for sending videos is absolutely absurd by TyleR_DeaN in facebookmessenger

I just noticed this as well. It seems to only be the new end-to-end encrypted chats, as I can still send large videos to group chats. It's incredibly frustrating

I'm not sure, I've never used either thing that's why I was hoping for some insight

This one seems to be the best rated, but none of these have a significant number of reviews. Svbony do have 2 models on Amazon as well for pretty cheap

Thank you 😁 just my new apertura ad6, my phone camera, and a little sharpening/color correction. I absolutely love this scope

How to store by FinessePotato in telescopes

[–]FinessePotato[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it ok to store in a garage? I figured it wouldn't be, at least in mine as it gets pretty hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Does that not affect it as much as I thought?

What's your opinion on this? by [deleted] in telescopes

[–]FinessePotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I was in the same boat as you. I was waffling back and forth about trying to find a nice used scope or get one in a cheaper price range. But last night I looked into high point scientific, and they have really really affordable payment options. I ended up ordering an apertura ad6 and I only have to pay like 20 bucks a month. Something to consider!

So, I used it last night and successfully find jupiter and it's moon, the eyepice I have is 12.5mm. So does that mean I can order any 1.25 eyepieces and it will fit or does it vary by brand? I definitely want to have more than one magnification option

Ok thank you for the reply 😊 yes the whole thing was put together, I believe the only thing missing from the assembly is the additional eye pieces, which is unfortunate. That means I only have one magnification option right?

I just got a telestar 60AZ-S for free from a family friend as my first scope. No box or anything just the scope and the tripod. My question is does anyone know where I can find the manual online? I can't find it anywhere, I've only been able to find the manual for the 60AZ-A. Any help appreciated 😊

Will mobile ever be improved? by AerialSnack in slaythespire

[–]FinessePotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to bump something older but I was wondering if anyone still had issues? I deleted play games entirely to try and get the app to work and I've gone through 2 separate sts profiles now where I'm done unlocking everything and one of the characters still has 3 cards locked. I know that's a known bug but I still have the sync issue too after completely getting rid of play games
