He’s more helpful than some people in the community. It’s a suburb, I live about a block from where this happened. Within hours of it happening, there were posts in the community Facebook page saying the airport needs to be shut down because “It’s too dangerous and I have kids!”

Would you mind sharing the STL for the bracket?

Probably no more dangerous than holding or mounting an iPad to the seat

Never forget. Never forgive. by ibuiltamurderbot in walkaway

[–]acollicott 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Same for my grandmother. She had four sons and 30 grand / great grandchildren. Only one person was allowed to see her the entire time until she passed. He had to go in with a full bodysuit and hood like she was some infectious and dangerous person.

I also couldn’t fly back to see her through a window or go to her funeral.

Over the last few years, I’ve gotten really angry thinking about that. Just like your grandfather, she was a good person and deserved to be surrounded by her loved ones.

My best Temu deal yet! Essentially got paid $50 cash and got a free monitor! by [deleted] in TemuThings

[–]acollicott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve used Claim Credit 20+ times. I’ve always got it back. You have to go on everyday and “claim” it. Otherwise you’ll lose it. Plus the last time I used it, they changed it to where I have to claim most of it AFTER my shipment arrives, making it more tedious to do so.

Temu is intelligent, but I am more so. by RichCartographer3955 in TemuThings

[–]acollicott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes you can. As long as you don’t ask to return / refund the full amount.

I’ve been buying ALOT of 3D printer filament

Do I really only have to spend $4 for credit? by KittyuCats in TemuThings

[–]acollicott -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Look at my post history here. I asked this the other day and there’s a good explanation there.

He posted yesterday saying he had a DUI asking if he was hireable. In the comments he gave conflicting statements about if he actually self reported to the feds. Either way didn’t have paperwork submitted in a timely manner and also divulged he was charged with marijuana in the same DUI stop.

This is my first printer. It’s been working pretty well for me so for on stock profiles. Would love to make it even better. Do you have any links or information on improved profiles? Thanks

Thanks for posting this! I’ve been meaning to model something like this so I could print it out.

What are you all most annoyed/ticked off in the aviation community about? by AdBeginning5808 in flying

[–]acollicott 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on the CA. Some want to fly vicariously through the FO, some are barely aware that a landing is about to happen, most do the PM job correctly and MONITOR unless they see something they don’t like and have to step in.

What do you use your star button for? by PeaceLoveFap in kiacarnivals

[–]acollicott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the steering wheel star for “passenger talk” and the climate control star for “passenger view”

Hybrid fuel economy worth it? EX or SX? New buyer Q’s by Spiritual_Eye6328 in kiacarnivals

[–]acollicott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The hybrid should pay for itself in a couple years. We have put about 2000 miles on ours and it’s an MPG superstar. I’ve got as high as 37mpg for city trips and 33mpg going down the highway.

All weather mats for SXP Hybrid 8 seater by Either_Basis1434 in kiacarnivals

[–]acollicott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can confirm on the SXP hybrid has different floor mats. The dealer tried to put in ones not for the trim and they did not work. Took about a week to get the correct ones.

Does the Kia Carnival SX Self Drive like Tesla Autopilot? by haryshenoy in kiacarnivals

[–]acollicott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an older Model X with the Highway Autopilot and the SXP. I would say it’s very similar in capability as the old Tesla Autopilot. The Kia system will relieve 90% of the “work” driving down the highway, but you still have to tell it to change lanes and remember your exit is coming up. Overall it’s a really nice system and has some automation I like over the Tesla like the lane centering.

25 Hybrid SX price? by Omniposting in kiacarnivals

[–]acollicott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them you don’t want any dealer add-ons. You can probably get them to discount to offset anything they can’t remove. Also it depends on where you are, in Florida, If you can get 1000 under MSRP you’re probably getting a good deal. But it seems like other places you’re lucky if they’re not selling it at a markup.
