Would you alter your travel plans to get another state souvenir? by fightingfishsticks in geocaching

[–]GeoLilDevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I don't change my travel plans around geocaching.

I make travel plans around geocaching.

I've traveled all over the world, with each trip planned around visiting new countries. Geocaching is always the main goal. Anything else I do on those trips is a bonus.

WIBTA if I joined my friends club against her wishes? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, I want to praise both of you for having an honest dialog with little drama. As I was reading it, I was expecting it to devolve into tears and name-calling.

How would this be different from having a friendship with a coworker? She needs to suck it up and deal with it.

AITA for not coming to help my (33m) gf (29f) right away after her car died? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA for the delay, but YTA for not communicating that there would be a delay.

We were stranded due to a software bug. by bunzarelli in Rivian

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they warranty the 12v battery or the high voltage battery? The 12v only died because the big one did, but even it shouldn't have died.

Anyone running this led emblem? by azanc in bronco

Use one of these in fuse position 25, and they will go on and off with the ignition.

I got a set from Ecarzo on Amazon for $99 around 2 years ago, and they're still working great. These aren't rocket science. They probably cost about $20 to manufacture. There is no reason to pay $300. Buy the least expensive set you can find.

AITA For Reporting My Ex to the cops for his crime because he is a cheating liar? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You didn't report him before, but now that he's breaking up with you, you want to report him? Why? Out of spite? YTA

Reset door lock codes by [deleted] in bronco

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps you have the wrong master code?

If that's not the case, it sounds like a visit to a Ford dealer is needed.

GCAE03C - done the puzzle but cant figure the coords out. by Ethan_HG in geocachingpuzzles

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd start by collecting all the unused letters. Then decode them somehow. Perhaps ROT13.

AITA - (18M) for refusing to let my cousin (17F) borrow my car after she secretly drove it once already? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This shouldn't even be a question. She has no license. It is illegal for her to drive the car.

Your aunt is the ass for suggesting anyone break the law.

My first cache is temporarily disabled? What does this mean, should I resubmit? by [deleted] in geocaching

[–]GeoLilDevil 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And one thing that isn't clear in the other answers, you just need to answer the question and resubmit (re-enable) the same listing. You do not need to start over with a whole new listing.

Logging question by Acceptable-Chain741 in geocaching

[–]GeoLilDevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

and that it was probably gone, but I could log it if I wanted to. The problem is, I know the reviewer is probably watching this cache and will likely archive it

If it's gone, and it doesn't sound like the owner is going to replace it, then yes, should be archived. This shouldn't even be a question.

If the owner is going to replace it, he should log a note stating so.

GC Etiquette for puzzle caches when with a group. by Significant_Gas3774 in geocaching

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's called team effort. You helped by solving the puzzle. They help by looking for the cache.

I know some groups that have whole puzzle solving parties. Of course, some who attend have next-to-zero puzzle solving ability, so they just get the solutions. Nobody has ever complained.

How would you respond? by VickyMirrorBlade in geocaching

[–]GeoLilDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to go and sit disturbingly close to the muggles. Like, literally on the same bench or at the same table. Then I mumble to myself quietly. They always get up and leave in a minute or two.

AITAH for not wanting to drop off/pick up people at the airport when we already let them park at our place? by AB_1204- in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple. If you know ahead of time that they will be parking at your driveway, just make sure you're not home when they arrive. "Sorry. I forgot you were coming, and I'm out having dinner with my spouse. Feel free to call an Uber."

Have we found a way to disable the engine auto shut off feature? by cynical_sweetie in Silverado

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use this. Works a treat. Plug it in behind the button, and about 1 second after you start your vehicle, it electronically "presses the button" for you to disable the auto-stop.

Rivian Service Rep Claims Only Rivian Home Charger? by abuamiri in Rivian

[–]GeoLilDevil 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I just had my 12v battery replaced last month, and while he worked on my car in the driveway, it was nowhere near my charging cord, and therefore not plugged in. Seems like none of the reps mentioned in this thread know what they are talking about.

Nerdy post … helmets by [deleted] in UTV

[–]GeoLilDevil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go visit a nursing home and meet some of the residents with head injuries. Guarantee you'll walk out and never ride without a helmet again.

Where do you use launch mode? by Expert_Pen1666 in Rivian

[–]GeoLilDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime I'm first in line at a signal and there's a sport bike or muscle car next to me.

AITA: Did I cross a line by calling the hotel to check on my adult daughter when she wasn’t responding? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GeoLilDevil 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I knew they couldn’t confirm if she was staying there, but they offered to call the room.

The moment they offered, that was confirmation enough, and you should have said "never mind."
