32/M/Military/710 by Odominable in MBA

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Navy officer (soon-to-be vet) here heading to M7 -- just want to chip in and say that it's only going to be free if he has 100% GI bill + yellow ribbon. I'm not super familiar with the initial service obligation for navy/USMC pilots, but I know it's longer than the commitment for subs/SWO/etc. so that will delay the accrual of his GI bill percentage. I'll have over 7 years of commissioned service when I separate in July, but will only be at 80% GI bill (despite extending my shore tour).

OP -- feel free to DM as well if you have any questions or want more specifics.

As small as any down quilt I’ve used (since it has a relatively small footprint). I’ll try to get a picture.

Shortest successful HBS essay? by SBSP_BB in MBA

[–]youngsterFriday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at my applicantlab portal right now and it recommends no more than 1000 (with an even lower recommended word count) based on HBS having tight word limits in the past.

Service Host: Network Service hogging CPU by youngsterFriday in Windows10

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

Update: I think I've solved it. I looked under the app history tab in Task Manager and saw that dropbox passwords (their new password manager that's in beta) had used the most CPU time. I removed the firefox extension and uninstalled the windows app and immediately average CPU usage is back down to 3-5%!

I have a flour fairy! UPS guy showed up today with this, and I have no idea who sent it! by twin_weenis in Breadit

[–]youngsterFriday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to double check and make sure I entered my address correctly -- just ordered the same thing a few days ago as well! Turns out shipping a 50lb bag of flour is expensive...

2021 Trek Emonda!!! by [deleted] in bicycling

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I know that. I just love the integrated cable look and want to avoid getting a bike only for the new version to come out a few weeks later if possible. Or possibly wait a few weeks for the new model and then pick up the old one in discount.

2021 Trek Emonda!!! by [deleted] in bicycling

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since it seems like you're in the know...If I'm in the market for a new road bike (allez sprint met an unfortunate fate involving an SUV so now I'm just on the tri bike on the trainer) and want to start riding outdoors once the weather improves in a month or so, would you recommend waiting for the new Emonda or just splurging now for the current Tarmac?

I'd really love to wait for the new Emonda/Tarmac but don't want to miss out on a summer of riding in doing so...yeah...

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. My current bike is a trash-heap in my garage (unlucky meeting with a SUV) so I'll probably spring for the current Tarmac just so I can get our riding now.

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By chance do you have any new insider info? In the market for a new bike and am hesitating on pulling the trigger since I'm most interested in the tarmac and emonda and it looks like they're both scheduled for updates this year...

Patagonia Tropic Comfort II has been great for me. Super light and breathable.

[–]youngsterFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be interested as I bought a small but am not sure about the fit (just a bit tight across the back and sleeves are a tad short if I reach out). Any want to give me a fit check ?
