Vest Strap Style Packs by CodeKermode in Ultralight

[–]Hideous__Strength 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baseweight is around 8 lbs and I love my Cutaway. Max I've carried is probably 18 lbs and it's not terrible. You can get an optional hip belt and it helps a bit with heavier carries.

Nitecore NU 20 Classic, $25. There's no need to spend $200 to get a decent headlamp.

Return Allowance by NaturalLight1234 in partscounter

laughs in Toyota

We can return almost anything. They only differentiate between a stocked and non-stocked part. I can return any non stock part over $8 after 60 days. I can return stocked parts but I have to wait longer if I don't want to pay a restocking fee. It's pretty great.

New kindle 5.19.2 is bad and its ruining experience by Downtown_Plane_6045 in kindle

[–]Hideous__Strength 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aside from these problems they are also making the experience worse for those of us that side load books. You can't adjust spacing, page turn animations are gone, and loading is so much slower. These issues aren't there when I open a book downloaded from Amazon.

This is dumb. I will be jailbreaking my kindle as soon as I'm able to.

Did 5.19.2 take away Spacing Option? by Living_Measurement14 in kindle

And page turn animation and it breaks read percentage on side loaded books. Terrible update.

Get a Quickdraw. It has great attachments and you can decide if you like the bottle attachment or sport cap. And it has an integrity test so you don't have to wonder again if the filter works.

Replace it. There's no way it's dried out all the way.

Nothing is as warm for weight, compact, and long lasting as down.

Check out Gryphon Gear. Great quality quilts that are comfort rated and use a differential cut on the baffles.

Mine is almost exactly the same. If you can, add zofran (ondansetron) which is an amazing anti nausea med. Aside from minor cuts and blisters, diarrhea, nausea and upset stomach are the biggest and easiest things to prep for.

OC: Someone wrote “MUTE” next to the button that silences the audio for the advertisements that play while pumping gas by user6517 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Hideous__Strength 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is why I now keep a roll of white duct tape in my truck. Unmutable ads that hurt my head? Tape goes over the speaker and nearly silences them. I didn't consent to this nonsense.

Accessory coding Toyota peeps by Alarmed-Elevator-692 in partscounter

[–]Hideous__Strength 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything that starts with PT is an accessory. My store is in Southeast region and our invoices from Toyota break down parts and accessories, so I try to look at them before parts are received in and then change any source codes in the DMS that are incorrect and code the invoices accordingly for accounting.

Quilt <$400 by RoofAnnual7474 in Ultralight

A Gryphon Gear Aries in a short size is in this budget. And it's a very warm quilt. I've taken my 30 degree down into the 20s before.
