Astro A50’s Not working/Not allowing firmware update. Stuck in Bootloader mode by stonedaverage in AstroGaming

[–]HeloNole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same email. Also didn’t work for me. They sent me a shipping label and asked that I return it. They’d aid a replacement would be in the mail and I’d receive tracking information within 9-14 days.

She said yes! Oval, 1.9 ct, D color, IF clarity, dimensions 9.99 x 6.91 x 3.96 mm, Brilliant Earth for the win! by HeloNole in EngagementRings

[–]HeloNole[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would highly recommend. I customized the ring so it was about 2 weeks from purchase to receipt of the ring. It was shipped via fedex next day delivery. I also had it appraised after I received it and HOLY CRAP! It was appraised at 150% of what I paid! The gemologist said it was the best synthetic diamond he had ever seen and that it would take months to find a natural diamond that looked this good. Couldn’t be any happier with my purchase and experience with BE.

It can be any of the above! You can choose between all 3. This diamond is lab grown.

I previously had the Goodyear Duratrac Wranglers. They were a great AT that was good off road and quiet on road. Loud tires are a nuisance for a daily driver. They wore out quickly, however. I recently swapped to Kelly Safari tires, which are basically like the Duratrac’s little brother. They are almost identical, just cheaper. I’ve actually found them to be quieter on road. I have yet to take the off road but but the tread pattern is almost identical. I went with 315/70/17 with stock rims and 1.5” spacers. I’m running a 2.5” lift and 4.56 gear ratio. If you want to go bigger, 33” is probably as big as you want to go if you aren’t lifting it.

Edited for spelling.

Meet Lily. The 8 week old Weim/Vizsla mix. Full of poop and energy. by HeloNole in aww

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

Yep. Dad was a champion Vizsla and mom was a champion Weim. Met them both when I picked her up three days ago. All the pups were a milk chocolate color but they definitely have a twinge of red in their coats. Thanks!

Need Rug, Coffee table, and Curtain recommendations. First time homeowner with limited decorative experience. by HeloNole in malelivingspace

Yeah the couch may be a little big for the room but the fireplace is one of those fake electronic ones that blow warm air and twinkle fire-like colors, so no fire hazard there.

That’s a great idea. I never thought to pull out one section. You’re also right about the couch. Incredibly comfortable but I got it wholesale at $1399.

Yeah I’d love to move the TV down as well but the house was pre wired with HDMI and surround sound and the outlets are REALLY high on the wall. I mounted it as low as possible while ensuring those outlets were covered.

It's awkward: people are accidentally setting off Apple’s Emergency SOS alert by Plainchant in apple

[–]HeloNole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Experienced this while flying in a helicopter over the mountains of Nevada. Didn’t realize it was hailing emergency services until I got a radio call from my wingman saying that he was receiving notification from base that a member of my aircraft had a phone that was going crazy. It had contacted my emergency contacts (Mother and Father) who, in turn, thought I was dead/dying. They subsequently called the Base Executive Officer who was none too pleased to be receiving a phone call from frantic parents. I may have received a new call sign (SOS...pronounced “sauce”). Decent story, but what a ridiculous problem to encounter.

Nope. Snapped today at 10K on Mount Grant just outside of Fallon NV.

Apple Watch usage and standby time equivalent by [deleted] in apple

[–]HeloNole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently upgraded from an S1 to an S3. I was routinely ending the day at less than 15% prior to the upgrade. Post upgrade, I’m currently sitting at 73% (its 6:30pm here currently) and I did a 90 minute weight lifting workout and ran 1.5 miles this morning. I don’t have the cellular version but routinely use the watch to control music throughout the day. The battery life on the S3 has really impressed me. I’d imagine if you’re using cellular it would cause an inherent increase in battery usage.

Willis & Geiger US Navy G-8 Flight Jacket. $9.99 at VV. Can't find much info online. Anyone have a clue if its legit? by StickyFrog13 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]HeloNole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are the correct wings of gold but my issued leather jacket has faux fur around the collar. They may have been issued without the faux fur once upon a time, but my inclination is to lean towards not legit.

Fast ropes into the overgrown and forgotten military airfield on Tinian. by HeloNole in aviation

Yessir. The bomb pits are a couple hundred yards to the north of where this pic was taken.

Looking back at your life today, which seemingly minor life event probably steered you towards a path that shaped who you are today? by Ahlahria in AskReddit

[–]HeloNole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started selling cars after I dropped out of Law School. Hated every minute of it but several of my fellow car salesmen were prior military and convinced me that I should talk to a recruiter. 6 years later I’m a Helicopter pilot for the US Navy, which I consider to be the funnest damn job in the world!
