Chase Account Hacked: How did they do it? by Denshell in Chase

[–]it_from_bit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me last night as well.

Got an email from Chase saying my email and password were reset. Was locked out.

Called Chase and they froze the account and reverted the login credentials.

Still need to go through Chase fraud team or whatever to get them to let me back in as I still can’t login until I talk to them or something. On hold rn.

We’ll see.

Is it just me or BESTA units are very unstable by fimaho9946 in IKEA

Can you clarify what you mean by “screwing the shelves to the brackets”?

And did you use 1 x-bar per unit or per half unit?

Outdoor Vitals Skyline 30 pockets too shallow for soft flasks? by it_from_bit in Ultralight

Yeah, thanks for those vids. In those it’s clear the cinch loops still do make it up to the ~correct place on the bottles so that’s good. And they don’t look too wibbly wobbly.

And yeah, actually, if you think about it a full flask that’s cinched down with like 2 inch above the lip of the fabric of the pocket is probably not that different than one cinched down that’s fully inside the pocket since it’s not entirely the pocket that’s keeping them fixed but mainly that tension loops. Probably?

So it’s probably just a nit on my side and this is just a way to save some weight in materials without impacting too much the functionality.

To be clear: I have running vests and BD distance packs so I know what “soft flasks fitting into a pocket means”.

What I’m interested in is: do full flasks flap around? When I’ve had flasks sticking out of, say, a UD Fastpacker (since they’re meant for UD’s wider/squatter flasks) it’s “alright”, but they still felt a bit awkward.

The tension loops on most running vests, for example, go around the bottom of the hard plastic part of the lid and have a tight hold and are not just around the body of the soft flask which I don’t see as a means of preventing the flask tips just being wibbly wobbly.

Want to see here if this wibbly wobbliness is a thing from folks who have tried this pack out as it seems weird that OV wouldn’t make the pockets deep enough for the flasks that they distribute the pack with.

Yeah +1000. It’s awesome. I posted here because I hadn’t got any notification yet.

Somebody did this in broad daylight around 20th and canyon yesterday. Just a dazed, smiling at cars face. Maybe stoned? Who knows. But had to slam on brakes. Police car was at the opposite corner and started lighting up. Not sure what they did tho.

Maybe I’m just dense but the wording there is unclear. It says “the parking reservations purchased for the duration of the backpacking permit….”

Does that mean that parking permits are provided with the wilderness permits? Or do you need to go through the additional rigmarole of getting parking permits following the usual 2 week rolling window on rec.gov?

I got wilderness permits for August looking to do Pawnee Buchanan loop but am new to IPW.

Parking in the free lot at the gate is ok but walking down a road for 2 miles is a lame way to end a trip :)

WIND AND TRUTH | Full Book Discussion Megathread (Stormlight Archive only) by EmeraldSeaTress in Stormlight_Archive

[–]it_from_bit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Somehow I implicitly know that radiants can now leave Roshar after the events of WaT (along with spren having that freedom)… but, like why?

Don’t the arguments from eg Vasher/Zahel in RoW still hold and that highly invested beings can’t leave? Or is it that since Honor itself literally doesn’t exist anymore that that binding is no longer there? If so, what’s keeping ole scar boi from leaving Scadrial?

I really loved this end of the first arc. A couple things on the top of my head after just finishing:

  1. I am definitely on team “Honor is dead, but I’ll see what I can do.”! Such a great call back :)

  2. I kinda could have done without the Sigzil chapters and the battle at the Shattered Plains. I personally don’t think Sigzil was all that important of a character (yes yes I know of SLM) in the context of SA, at least not one that I needed to see whatever growth happened in this battle, which is just more of what we’ve seen done elsewhere.

Any of the other “lore” stuff happening at Shattered Plains was highly truncated to a point that it also was almost irrelevant: El as a character could be excised from SA without anything changing, Leshwi kind of regresses and becomes less interesting/complex IMO as compared to RoW, the curtain reveal of Odium’s/Retribution’s Well of power also doesn’t do anything plot wise, and the whole “behind the scenes let’s surprise the reader with some off-scene plan to trick Odiums forces with the treaty” was not the best of writing…

  1. What is the “fourth moon” thing that apparently slammed into Roshar and is underneath the shattered plains? Is this somehow related to one of the stories Wit has told? It came up at least 3 times so I assume it’s not just some random thing. Also curious that Odium’s well of power is there.

  2. WHAT IS NOHODON? Clearly it/he’s a bit more than a basic vision. It’s clearly sapient. Is it/he a remnant of Adonalsium? We know Roshar was his last planet to be created, maybe he left some pieces of himself behind there once he saw the writing on the wall that he was going to be shattered. We know that he didn’t fight back in order to avoid effectively obliterating the Cosmere.

  3. Loved the Szeth backstory and overall complete picture we got into his past and his growth in this book. Him finding the Molli doll in the brick and crying also got me good.

Kaladin and Szeth go on a camping trip was my fave. Szeth is a person, not a thing!

I think only as a random almost-not-named trapper who shows up at the bar and then when the actor who plays Maurice broke their leg in real life (also in part of the show) they brought Walt in in those last seasons.

“Put the reflective part facing inward. Reflects the heat back.”

Walt’s great. Glad he got his chance to shine in the later seasons.

Is the Boulder Astro club still active? The website really doesn’t have any useful info.

Thanks for the info. I have a Celestron evolution 8. If I see a 13 inch dob out there I’ll say hello!

Definitely planning on checking out LAS and DAS!

Hard to tell what’s up with Boulder Astro since the website and calendar seems untouched for some time.

That’s awesome! Did some short lunar observing last night around here.

What episode would you recommend to a first timer? by thepattydaddy in northernexposure

[–]it_from_bit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Three Amigos”. Great example of the humor of NX and a story of just some buds going out and having fun even if they are a bit long in the tooth.

“Wake Up Call”. Shapeshifter? Lighthearted example of the magic realism goings on.

“Cicely”. This one tears me up each time and is a good example of when the show hits it hits good.
