    Happy Thanksgiving to you all

    It's history. Get over it. Look at the positive stuff. It takes a know-it-all like you to bring a downer to an upbeat day. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Cheers, M² p.s. I probably shouldn't have said that but I'm tired of the whiners and "poor-me"s. Everyone has it tough.

    Pelagic Pressure Systems Decompression Algorithms?

    I haven't owned all Hollis computers, so I only commented on the one that I know about.

    Pelagic Pressure Systems Decompression Algorithms?

    Hollis DG-03 runs PZ+. I ran it in parallel with my Perdix and they were fairly close on most of my dive profiles with the Perdix set conservatively. Since they were both AI it worked out nicely. Cheers, M²

    The scale of Cozumel’s economic problem with no cruise ships

    Yep. I sometimes tip each boat trip to the DM. I have in the past used envelopes to each person involved in my trip including the boat captains, the one who schlepps the tanks to be refilled, the scheduler, and DMs. I have developed a daily number and use that at the end of the trip. I...

    Thoughts on how many years we should expect our dive computers to function properly.

    That should have been "@scubadada for once". I didn't proofread before posting. Sorry. Now pull out your BFK and cut my air hose. Cheers,

    Thoughts on how many years we should expect our dive computers to function properly.

    I agree with @scubadafo once. My phone is over 4 years old, my laptop is almost 10 years old, if it hadn't been for a lightning strike, my TV' would be more that 10 years old. Cheers,

    Boat dive without buddy?

    Hi @OnTheMark I go to boats alone, but I also have almost 1300 dives so I generally end up being the "instabuddy", which I don't mind. I dive mostly in Cozumel. In Cozumel, there is always a DM in the water. As @scubadada said, "Where are you?" Where do you plan to dive? Since you are...

    Single most important factor in choosing a recreational dive computer

    Most important thing: Does it look good on me so other divers would like to look this good. :rofl3:

    FYI. United scrubbed July flights

    As a Texican I'll just say that I fly to Cozumel for some really good diving only a couple of hours away. Cheers, M²

    Quiz - 4 - Diving Knowledge Workbook - Diving Physics

    Didn't you read the answers? It says it plain as day. And who says it's larger? Are you trying to be a spoiler? Have a GREAT day! Cheers, M²

    Resort's " New Normal " Rule - No AIR 2 or diving your long hose

    Dear OP, I actually read your post. Some bolding was done by me.. I would not dive with this resort. I won't dive with a dive op that dictates my hose configuration and air sharing technique. I personally think that if I were to give or get COVID-19 to or from a fellow diver it would have...

    TG6 Video settings (too dark)

    Use the Custom Mode setting (C1, C2)??? I don't know. It's just a guess. Set it for a picture with more exposure, then push the video button. It worked on mine. The other option is to get a video light. Cheers

    Quiz - Recreational Dive Planner™ - Total Minutes

    I think you need to carry more gas or stay relatively shallow. That's really conservative. :D Cheers, M²

    Quiz - Recreational Dive Planner™ - Max Depth

    As I said, it's for quiz purposes. I agree. That was an earlier question. It makes sense. The only reason other than a quiz is if someone needs 35 minutes of bottom time to reach some goal. :) Cheers, M²

    Quiz - Recreational Dive Planner™ - Max Depth

    I thought it was intuitive. My question is why would you need a problem like this unless it was for a quiz? Cheers - M²

    Quiz - Physics - Minimum Displacement

    What are the dimensions of the block? What is the lift point? How far off of the bottom satisfies "To move the block off the bottom"? Is the 300l/11cf displaced at exactly 19m/63ft? With the answers already given, I guess it doesn't make a difference. It's a theoretical block that weighs...

    Shearwater extends warranty to 2023

    If you paid in advance maybe not. If you paid by Credit card check when the charges actually hit your card. Most companies don't hit the card until shipment. I'll cross my fingers for you. Good luck. Cheers-
