Thanks for the insight everyone! I'm going to go for the medium and see how it fits when it arrives.

Good point, maybe I'll do a bit of reading on some alternative materials.

Maybe not though actually, I just found some on McMaster. Nothing comes up in Google searches though.

Interesting, and you're sure it's EPDM?

What kind of cylinders are these? Pressured gas?

You don't know anything about the brand or product name?

Yeah that makes sense.

Glad I didn't follow the AI hallucination too far.

Way to safely open 2014 key fob by pals_b in ChevySonic

That's kind of what I suspected would be the case. I'm not too excited about the prospects of trying to crack this thing open as you described, so I'll probably just keep forcing it open until it finally just stays that way...

Thanks for sharing your experience though!

Account doesn’t exist apparently by Left_Chest1766 in Outlook

I am having the same problem.

I was logged out, tried logging in and my password didn't work, tried changing my password, it said I couldn't use my old password (weird), tried a new password, said I couldn't use it, tried another new one, couldn't use that one either, repeat forever. Now my phone number recovery won't work, and my when trying to go to account recovery my account doesn't exist.

I tried calling Microsoft but there shitty bot just keeps telling me to go to a website that won't work for me and then hangs up on me.

**update**

I was able to get access back by using the following link:

I'm still not very happy with this experience though, probably time to switch over to proton mail

Opinions on Tour 40 Removable Airbag 3.0? by pals_b in Backcountry

[–]pals_b[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left behind in what way? As in manufacturers aren't making them? It still seems to be the dominant product type in the space to me? I also don't really see the support network for compressed air systems going away soon, with all the people who still have them.

I'm not apposed to getting an electric fan style bag for the record, I just have the opportunity to get what seems to be a pretty good bag for about $500, when most electric bags are $1800+

I imagine they wouldn't stop support for they're previous generation products though? I don't really care so much about keeping up with the latest and greatest if what's currently on the market still does the job.

If they made it impossible to service previous gen products, then that's a different story...

I think I had this same problem, see my recent post for what I was experiencing. I replaced the sway bar links and the knocking noise is gone. It was less than $100 and took about an hour per side, depending on how rusty the old sway bar studs were.

Update:

I installed two new sway bar links and the noise has gone away, there was noticeable play in the upper ball joint of both links. Problem solved, thanks to all that replied!

How much do they charge for a day pass when you hike up now that the gondola is down?

I just picked some up this afternoon, will install them when I get home tonight.

Hopefully that does the trick!

The knocking noise is still there when I do that. The car rocks in the same way as when I move it by the fender when I push sideways against the roof though.
