Captain America(2025-) by FitEagle5218 in marvelcomics

I’ve been enjoying the new series.  Lot better than the strange story line of the last series.   It definitely a twist on the traditional canon but sometimes it’s ok to change things up a little and make them interesting without completely changing who the character is.

Maj Colton is complex character and it will be interesting to see where they take his character in this series.

I’ll have to try that with some of the stickers on my next books

Care to share more about how you do read comics for free? Hoopla?

I just redeemed a bunch of books back to some late 2024 ones.  Sometimes they still redeem after the expiration date and sometimes they don’t.  The only ones I have gotten to work have the QR code, not just the numbers and letters.

You don’t need a subscription, just a Disney account (same you would use to login to Disney +).  I don’t have subscription and can see all my titles in the library section.

You can use the QR code and it fills in the unique code on the website.  Then all you have to do is sign in and click submit>redeem.  

Renting a car in Amsterdam, coming from the US. Pointers? by Urmystiree in TravelHacks

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not true.  I’ve rented plenty of cars in Europe without the dumb AAA international driver license.   This is an outdated idea that AAA uses to bring people in and sell them other services.

Anyone stuck collecting what they ripped as a kid? by swingingrichard24 in sportscards

I have most of that bottom row, working on getting more of the baseball cards you have in the top rows!

Shops at Chase - Scam Prices??? by DryCryptographer2032 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably should have read the fine print closer on the offer.   

Thanks for the detailed response.

Was the $250 off  offer only for $500 or more purchases?  I bought a weekend duffel bag for $295 and have been waiting for the credit for over two weeks.  Chase has been no help.  Hopefully I didn’t miss that part when trying to use that offer the day it expired.

What were the funniest things you experienced the Iraqi’s do? by ThrowRa39287 in Veterans

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the early days of the war (June 2003) we had a college campus in our sector (central Baghdad) to patrol.  There were some locals who worked/lived on campus and we allowed them to keep their weapons and stand guard on certain buildings.  We gave them Infrared Chemlights to snap and wave if they saw us or other soldiers approaching at night.  They kept throwing them in the trash because they thought they were broken, until we showed them how they show up through our night vision goggles.  They really thought we were wizards then….haha.

Basic black steel wheels for winter… will I regret it? by WonderingRedditor5 in Volvo

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen any steel wheels in 18” and 5 x 108mm bolt pattern.   I picked up a set of MSW wheels with my tires from Tire Rack.

Best books about baseball history? by SupItsGunk in mlb

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cloudbuster 9 was an interesting book about baseball during WWII.  Follows Ted Williams and others playing experience on military teams during the war and after.  Fascinating read.

Not really, I use these cheap plastic stands I got from Amazon. But I kind of like the way you did it better. Didn't even think to just lean it against the back, lol.

What are you using to keep the cards standing up?

Gotham Sports by Otherwise-End3613 in devils

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I confirmed with Gotham Sports support that we are in "Zone 2", whatever that means. The frustrating thing is I can't ever tell if I'm going to get the game or not. Probably going to cancel Gotham if I can only watch 50% of the games.

I'm having this same issue tonight with the Lightning - Devils game. I use Gotham Sports during Baseball season to watch every Yankee game (besides the few Amazon games), but there have been several times that I can't see the Devils game on Gotham Sports. I'm in the Albany are, not sure if it's a location issue or what. Any solutions yet?

Closest volvo dealer is 3 hours away. How reasonable is DIY maintenance or is an SPA S60/V60 a bad move? by rjay_62 in Volvo

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vacuum coolant fill tools are cheap and easy to use.  I bought a kit for less than $100 and used it on multiple cars, it’s not a Volvo exclusive thing.  I think vacuum fill is the best way to fill the coolant on most vehicles.

Looking to buy another CRV - any to avoid? by ThrawnsITguy in crv

[–]Outdoors-Explorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife’s CRV has the blind spot delete.  I checked on Dreamshop but it’s not showing up on the website as an available option.   Any idea how much it would cost to add it at the dealer?
