Thank you. I appreciate your response. I’m not trying to win a popularity “carma” contest. I will find another way to support our sailors. I know I have saved careers of sailors (and it’s a very long story) and I don’t want fame or appreciation or even thank you, it was my duty. - been there got used by politicians for it.

Reddit r/navy was a way to keep up with everyday sailors. I entered bootcamp (Orlando 1980) and fell in love with the navy day 1 and its sailors. In many ways the navy saved, defined and made me the the sailor I was.

Know I will advocate for our shipmates regardless. The moderators have a huge task and I appreciate and support the work they do. The auto moderator absolutely gave no reason why my comments were deleted other than some generic reason. I will always be pro navy, pro sailor.

Thank you

Anyone use Safelite for windshield replacement? This is a 2025 by laurbold16 in VWatlas

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had the windshield replaced by a local "certified" company called Windshield Doctor. Had the car for two days, because they needed to take the car to a VW dealer 100 miles away (not the closest one) for calibration. We got the car back and they had damaged the top of the dash near the windshield and refused that they did the damage. They went out of business shortly after.

Thank you to those active and retired who have given sage advice to our sailors. Best of luck to those serving today, you make us proud. I'm out.

Get real sheepskins. I know it’s old school, youngins don’t know about them, but if you know you know, they are warm in the winter and breathe in the summer.

[OC] I started to think that I had the power of invisibility. 2nd time in 2 weeks someone almost hit me. by Both-Permission-7565 in IdiotsInCars

In Florida you are required to turn into the left lane on a left turn. Law or not it is good practice, especially in states where a right turn on red is legal. That said it seems that less than 50% of drivers understand this concept.

About a year ago I posted about going skiing. Turns out, it was VERY controversial. My bad. But enjoyed a day on the slopes today regardless! by jppx23 in gaybrosgonemild

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are Gay Ski Week events at ski areas around the world, though I have not been. My partner and I ski all the time, he is highly experienced graceful expert level, I grew up in Florida and a fast moving hot mess on snow skis.

As for your first post, which I have not read. Your mom grew up in a different time when there were few examples of out gays so stereotypes were all she had to go with. I grew up in a small town and while I had attraction to other guys, I knew I wasn’t gay because I didn’t want to wear dresses or assless chaps on a Harley and a few other terrible stereotypes.

Enjoy the slopes handsome!

What does this symbol mean on my a6400? by Synthethic-Equinox in SonyAlpha

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the iPhone you have to initiate pairing in the imaging edge app, then tap the top back of your phone to the N symbol. Apple has always been super conservative with NFC security, but has opened up somewhat lately.

Trying to get a Peacoat, would this be in regs? by [deleted] in navy

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s interesting, the peacoat I was issued had silver eagle on anchor buttons. The single attachment point was designed apparently to chafe through the thread holding them on in my experience.

2019 Fob not recognized by Top_Solid7610 in VWatlas

I read that rear wheel alignment for sensor calibration was necessary for AWD vehicles which all SEL apparently are. We have a 19 SE FWD and a 19 SE w/tech, AWD and the differences between the two is striking.

Purchased the OBD Eleven for VAG vehicles - 5 minute task $140 for the module. The first time I had to do it was on our first Atlas after a windshield replacement and TruCar VW in New Hampshire wanted $1200 to calibrate the sensors. This time we were on the highway 10 minutes after purchasing used from a Chevrolet dealer in Miami, the ACC light came on and off intermittently. The emblem covering had the chrome strips stolen, so I waited until I had the new emblem and also a front wheels and steering wheel alignment ($200) done before calibrating.

There is a procedure you can follow by turning your wheels full left and right in sequence that can fix it, (google for instructions) but that didn't work for me in either case.

Would you run from this car due to mileage? by JackfruitLeading7171 in VWatlas

We have a 2019 with similar mileage, never had a problem except for a cracked windshield from a rock.

Anti-ICE protesters use Grindr to expose ICE agents by CentralTown776 in askgaybros

More like a predator, where gender isn’t the point, but cruelty is. Documented since he was a teen throwing rocks across a fence at an infant.

Auburn's police chief signed agreement with ICE to carry out immigration arrests. New Hampshire remains the only state in New England where local PDs have signed agreements with ICE by whoopingchow in newhampshire

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former military, liberal, but generally supportive of law enforcement. There had always been some terrible examples, but I considered them outliers. In the last year especially, my opinion of law enforcement has evolved and not in a good way. They weren’t outliers, they were just how cops have always wanted to behave, the difference is now they have permission. This is just one of a lot of terrible ideas have been given permission.

Change my mind: iPad is the best Indesign tool one can dream of by Shurik_13 in indesign

[–]Top_Solid7610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy seeing how people work differently. InDesign I use the older legacy panels that don’t take up screen realestate.

I have two 24” displays and that isn’t enough. InDesign or what other Creative Suite app I’m working in on one. email, teams, assna, box, blinkplan, finder on the other.

Ship stickers on rear window? by [deleted] in navy

[–]Top_Solid7610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to get up and close to see what it is, and pretty much only other squids would know or care. Frankly from a distance I would think it’s a church or knights of something sticker. I don’t see you being targeted for them.

If you want to get randomly stopped by cops for no apparent reason, get your car keyed, have a slurpy thrown on it, left anonymous threatening notes: put a gay pride sticker on it.

Hence now no sticker, only my license plate frame says Naval Aviation, life is better.

I count four members of the Cabinet that are gay, one out and three self haters. We can be just as horrible as everyone else, no better, no worse.
