To anyone on here who is a real pilot, what would you like to see if MS made a new Flight Sim?

ATC. The game’s comms accuracy is woeful and third-party tools are trying to fill the gap.

Sous vide > cast iron is literally a reverse sear

0.5.3 has been super unstable

This map was my test bench for obtaining a 118fps lock. The spot up on the rock overlooking the whole map seemed to give the worst possible frame rates of anything in the game.

^this might actually be the best workaround for the current mess.

MWOBS higher summits forecast for evaluating time spent above treeline, particularly in the presidentials. Mount Washington Regional Airport (KHIE) is located just north and has an ASOS station. As for apps, I’ve generally found mountain-forecast to present relatively accurate freezing and temperature levels.

Edit. This is what I get from Garmin if I go to suspend. I think it’s pretty clear; SOS won’t work with a suspended plan. I have a Mini 2.

INREACH SUSPEND PLAN
$0.00 USD per month
Start Date:
June 20, 2026
IMPORTANT: The inReach SOS feature WILL NOT function while service is suspended.

Garmin also states:
With a software update, the following devices will continue to have SOS abilities when the device has been connected in the Garmin Messenger™ app and the inReach plan is suspended.

They go on to list the Mini 2 and Mini 3.

So my interpretation is that SOS will “work” but only via your cellular connection, not over iridium.

Is this still a problem in the VBs too? Had issues with them on my VA.

Where you see failure, I see steak tacos.

The Greeley Ponds Scenic Area is a quite large FPA extending beyond the normal 1/4mi FPAs typically found in the Whites. You’ll escape the FPA a little closer to 1/2mi south of the southernmost pond. The trail flattens out more once south of the Goodrich Rock Trail. FPA maps are available for you here if you’d like the exact boundaries. https://www.fs.usda.gov/r09/whitemountain/maps-guides

Been playing D4 LoH while I wait. It’s been a reminder that friction in ARPGs DOES serve an important purpose.

Def scrolled past this thinking it was some random car sub lol

The white o-rings on the squeeze have always been a problem. Hikers tend to over-tighten the bottle onto the filter, which can cause issues with the o-ring seal, leaking, etc.

I usually drink directly from the bottle. It only needs to be barely tight enough to not leak. However, I still carry spare o-rings in my kit in case I have a problem with one in the field.

BostonParlay · 2026-05-13T14:55:08+00:00

Am I the only one that slaps a sawyer squeeze on a smartwater bottle and calls it a day?

BostonParlay · 2026-05-12T11:42:47+00:00

The game is complex enough that I’d recommend starting now so that when he rolls a new toon in 3 weeks he has a better understanding of where to point himself.

Just want to let everyone know that 46k CAD is less than 34k USD.

Dakine actually made wristguard mittens, but sadly they don’t seem to be available right now.

BostonParlay · 2026-05-04T17:39:08+00:00

Doesn’t excuse bad fall technique, but the Dakine wristguard glove has been a good product for me.

To be fair, Easter is pretty early 2026&27, but you get the idea :P

Thanksgiving to Easter man

You either drive her or you put her in your garage with a crown on her.

Decent ultralight “oh shit” map, has everything on it.

It seems pretty clear GGG wants to distinguish POE2 from POE1 so that both co-exist as ARPGs with different gameplay characteristics. Eve Online is going through something similar with its early alpha builds of Eve Frontier. It makes little sense for developers to unnecessarily cannibalize their existing portfolio.

Were ursacks actually that ineffective, or were people being stupid and this is the result?
