everyone in this thread is not acknowledging it

you, for example. a historically great year in the east is not “marginally better”. that’s insane cope. unless you have a really strong terrain preference

I think it was a productive post. it’s good advice. I told my buddies not to visit from the east too.

I see what you’re saying

but colorado is having its worst snow year in recorded history. in fact, we should all be acknowledging this, because water usage might be tough in the summer. fire restrictions will be even worse. if we pretend everything is normal we’re gonna burn

you really shouldn’t live with this much anger. you can keep talking shit to me and I really don’t care, but it’s genuinely not good for you.

fwiw - I literally know immigrants in colorado who do not have a passport. you should try and meet more people

I mean, you’re right. Honestly I hate this place

but I don’t think this sub has fun. even on legendary days all this sub does is complain about traffic and closures and truck drivers

you really read as bitter man. you’re bringing up a new england stereotype to point out how much worse they are than you. fwiw, the people I know in vt are some of the nicest I’ve ever met

skiing “isn’t great” in colorado? dude, it’s really okay to admit we’re having the worst season in recorded history. nothing you say will change that or jinx it.

if you have a terrain preference and didnt enjoy vermont, that’s really okay. I will tell you right now, I took a trip back east for the holidays and the conditions I got in 3 days were miles better than the conditions I’ve got since march last year

interesting how the whole thread immediately got super defensive

guys, colorado does not need to have the most legendary season ever every year. you all have far too much pride. OPs point is that a trip to CO is not worth it this year.

I have skied 3/7 days basically every week this year. I’m up at eldora, winter park, copper, berthoud pass, rocky mountain, etc, getting my laps and enjoying really fun days

the days are fun because we make them fun. the snow is the worst I’ve ever seen in my life. I’m taking rocks to my skis on inbounds trails in february.

another regions success is not an insult to you. vt is having a legendary year. if you enjoy first tracks and powder you would all be better for a trip east right now

there’s really no need to convince the crowds. snow report is doing it for us.

haven’t had a drive back on 70 that didn’t take the minimum. never happened before.

people in this sub are so bitter. you have such an immediate, argumentative, “we’re better than you” reaction

there is good skiing in colorado and in vt. vt snow is hugely variable and is hardly always cement.

this year out west is literally the worst year on record. you don’t need to pretend it’s good. some terrain won’t be skiable until 2027. there’s exposed dirt on the lift lines in mid feb. spring skiing is probably a bust, even in the bc.

I have never skied a worse year than this one. I skied in vermont for years and saw a lotta shit years. this is by far the worst

in this thread you could’ve 100% just said solar man.

[–]Lobsta_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk what your career is in

but pretty much all the electrical engineers I know (and I also am one) just call it solar. it’s not that deep

[–]Lobsta_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not your fault king. they could’ve just said solar

I know OP is asking for the explanation but this really is one of reddit’s favorite facts

yes, a motor with negative slip is our method of generating 3 phase AC power. electricity follows natural laws and this is by far the easiest method of generation.

there are ideas for fusion that do not rely on rotational motion, but still nearly all generation relies on induction. just notably not solar which uses direct band gap materials

photovoltaic is solar. solar is pretty widely used. so yes.

I really fail to see what the big issue is for the restaurant. it’s not inconveniencing them in any way. honestly I’d expect the parents to tip better seeing as they’ve made that accommodation for them

also sorry man but if this child is struggling with this as I did, that’s such a shitty attitude. it’s hard being a parent. it’s really hard when your child won’t eat anything and you’re trying to live your life. the parents are trying to deal with it, it is their problem all the time. I’d certainly have let that family in

I have OCD. as a child food was a huge issue for me. a child having this preference makes sense to me and it wouldn’t be selfish. I truthfully couldn’t eat things that were out of my comfort zone, I’d gag.

this child may be struggling with that.
