Seems like they finally got those sorted out in the 2016s - mine shifts fine, which is just anecdotal, but I’m hearing less chatter about it on the CherokeeClub forums.

I’d add that Evernote has an add-in for Outlook. Between that and the web clipper, it’s radically changed how I do research and archival.

This post just highlights what is missing from Fallout 4 that many of the other prior releases had - peace quests / cooperation options. Convincing BOS, and the Enclave to focus on Cesar’s Legion was a pain, but it was possible. Fallout 4 is decidedly monotone, you can pick one and only one faction to “win” with.…

You can rotate quite a bit inside the bag, including being a stomach sleeper, the hood just doesn’t follow. So if you’re one who tosses and turns a lot, bring a warm hat or balaclava, loosen the hood and you’re good. I tend to “rotisserie” myself, although stomach sleeping in camp gear tends to suck a bit as my…

I’ve always stayed away from Amazon’s cloud storage due to their End User License Agreement, despite actually paying for cloud storage and being a Prime member. Last time I checked, Amazon reserved rights to do analysis on all of your images (Similar to Google Goggles if you’ve heard of it), XIF data (GPS…

Yes, but the upper limits on portable chargers is pretty insane. There’s a big gap - it goes from portable, to luggable. http://gearjunkie.com/enerplex-mobil… Solar charged battery packs that are larger than car batteries, generators and even charge packs powered by camp fires. Or, just tote around a motorcycle or…

Noise canceling headphones. The engine whine leaves me exhausted otherwise. I’m a fan of Audio Books, so I just start one up and zone out with my tablet for the the ride. I always pack a battery pack or two just in case.

(Pardon the “Back in may day, Sonny....” moment)

Last I knew, Airlines still wanted an address (or at least encouraged) on each bag. Giving a trusted non-home address seems sufficiently secure while not running afoul of the folks who could make my trips miserable.

For the record, I do partake in “bushcraft” to a certain extent as called for during long wilderness treks, but I think most folks go about it all wrong. This kit isn’t so much for actual survival or even military evasion training, but instead dicking around in a wooded camp ground - in one place - for as long as you…

Something I’ve never got, why in the world do “survivalists” not just look at ultralight backpacking gear lists. I’ve covered thousands of miles with stuff half the weight of this - in comfort, with sufficiently durable gear. For the weight of the random survival cord and trading out for a lighter knife that is still…

Maybe I’m overly paranoid, but I always put an alternative address on anything that might have my house keys in/on it.

I live in Parker but I’m a consultant so I travel to clients from Ft Collins to Colorado Springs very regularly. I also do nation-wide gigs. Frankly, I think the chart is spot on. We like to complain about traffic, but after spending 6 months in places like LA and Houston, ours really is just an annoyance.

I use the AirFrame in my jeep, it’s not ideal when the going gets really rough but is perfectly fine on the day to day. And as you mentioned, it does block the vent, but I haven’t found that to be too big of a deal.

Windows 8 and newer are connection aware, so if it’s tethered that network shows up as a metered connection. It will not download updates by default on metered connections with the exception of priority (critical) updates and will pause all App Store downloads: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-…

More into backpacking, but much of the same applies. Body Glide for feet without a doubt (Hydropel was better, but I can’t find it anymore) and for uhm, other areas Sportslick which is doesn’t seem to hold up on my feet, but is way more multi-purpose and does a good job at lasting all day. If I had to pick just one,…

You’re welcome to disagree, but blocking app updates will break things. Allowing updates only has a slim possibly introduce an issue down the road. You can always roll back, but most users just aren’t going to understand why Skype, Outlook or whatever quit connecting, or why Uncle Bob get’s X feature but they don’t -…

As an IT pro and someone who is the “computer guy” for lots of other family & friends, I really wish there were less of these posts being pushed out there. Disabling updates should be something only a Advanced Techie should be doing, and only then when very specific reasons are causing it. It should not be a normal…

The hard part there is that most folks are already on the + calories per day but consider that their baseline. Without knowing their exact output, they don’t know how much their input should be. There are tools out there (I use a Fitbit charge HR), but stepping on that scale and charting your progress really is…

In 1492 America was not “wild” like we usually think of it. There were already settlements of significant size, trade routes and established paths - many of the explorers made journals mentioning roadlike natural formations and large orchards and massive, but empty settlements - as though they were being intentionally…
