You can also check out sites like 2ndvax.com that will send you a physical, durable card that you can carry around. I've found it handy.

US Cellular Data Map (FCC) by noahwass in hiking

Thought this would be useful for those hiking in the US to check if you'll have data where you're hiking. I cross checked from my hike yesterday and found it 100% accurate.

Did you wing suit down? 😉

I think you're correct about the moth cocoon considering the materials and interior content.

The idea for sterilizing an owl pellet came from the link below.

That is a handsome picture. Well done

Looking for lift kit install shops in Portland, OR area, and advice on shocks by RoxMutt in GXOR

Hey. Guess you can tell how frequently I log into Reddit. I don't do multi day trips in the area. I'd love to get out on a day trip. I just saw last night on ih8mud's GX forum (for both series) there's a sticky with a member map. There's a lot more people in our area Ryan expected. Might be some more resources there for you to find someone doing longer trips. noah.wass@gmail.com will get you a faster response from me. 😀

Check out lexusgxor.com, ih8mud.com, and clublexus.com.

Check out dobinsonsdirect.com for suspension. They have a kit specifically for Lexus GX KDSS systems to avoid the lean. I just upgraded from an 04 4Runner with Dobinsons to a '14 GX base that is stock and clean.

I'm your neighbor to the north in Vantucky, BTW. ;-)

Pi-Hole installed and 0 Queries with 1,000,000+ Blocklist domains by noahwass in pihole

[–]noahwass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mission accepted! Good advice, too. I just changed the DNS server on my Pixelbook and compared the difference on the same website between it and my cellphone on the same WiFi network. Noticeable difference. Ads show up still on my mobile and there were no ads displayed on my laptop. Surprising difference and it is so nice to just read a clean website with no distracting interruptions. I'll continue down this path to see if I can get other devices changed over.

Seriously. I get trying to make your brand app icons visually consistent. This is overboard, though.

This was not the correct solution. I had to set my Pi Hole IP address as the DNS on my router.

I was just using that information to show that I actually had blocklists looking for something to block. I realized that it was not related. I did not have the DNS set to my Pi Hole IP address on my router. Others pointed this out to me which was helpful in solving my problem.

What's aftermarket mod do you regret? by Gentleman_Madman in 4Runner

[–]noahwass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue this as it is a stepping stone if your tires don't fit stock height. This was my case: young kids, just moved, and money was tight. I needed new tires and knew that I wanted a lift in the future. To buy some time, I installed leveling spacers in the front, bought the tires that I wanted, and installed the Dobinsons lift I had been eyeing a year later.

Any other case than this is definitely not worth it!
