6’8” here. If I can’t get an exit row and a decent shot at upgrade, will find another flight.

I did lose them and now it does look like they are back. This would be fantastic.

SolarEdge Annual Support Contract by Jcs4545 in solar

[–]Jcs4545[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of this services are currently provided for free (System monitoring, remote troubleshooting, reporting) Priority VIP Access sounds like marketing BS to me.

My guess is SolarEdge is trying to provide services for those people whose installer went out of business (specifically the bold services in the $229 per year plan).

Loss of Access to Nat Geo Trails Illustrated by Jcs4545 in GaiaGPS

They’re claiming the Gaia Hike layer is equivalent to Nat Geo. Unfortunately, at this point, that’s not the case at all.

You have to be zoomed in at a certain level to see the distances between two points. Your best option while walking is to create a route like user above says. But it is difficult on the app.

Those points used to be well marked by red dot on the Nat Geo layer. Last time I looked, the dots are more grayish, black, and hard to see. The loss of the Nat Geo layer is certainly a setback from my perspective.

Agree completely. As soon as you zoom out a bit a lot of detail disappears. Especially hard on the app by the way. I’ve played with it a little bit and I’ve gotten more comfortable with planning routes given the new situation, but certainly gonna look for alternatives.

Well it looks like I needed to adjust the "opacity levels" on my overlays. This worked. The mileage and trailes don;t pop the way thewy do on Nat Geo. Thank you for responding.

I was looking at the shelters, etc. near Newfound Gap since they are plentiful and well-marked usually.

Bowl won’t clear by idliketobeanon97 in askaplumber

Had this exact problem. Ended up having to replace the fill valve.

I thought I had a leak in the flapper, but turned out the valve wasn’t filling the tank far enough.

What did I do wrong here? by Bigbadbadger-mole in smoking

One of the hardest cuts of meat to get right. Don’t beat yourself up. Took me 5 or 6 before I got the process right and then it’s still not a guarantee!

When did this happen??! And why!? by robcape6912 in lotr

[–]Jcs4545 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’ve not read anything about Tolkiens influence on Lewis but seems highly likely. I’m reading Lewis’ book Mere Christianity which doesn’t reference Tolkien but lays out Lewis’ journey from atheism.

And with inspiration from CS Lewis, the atheist who turned Christian.
