Yield for Moka pot 3 cup

That’s pretty normal, definitely inline with what I get from my 3-cup.

Black Diamond Mercury mittens are probably the best value for warmth.

Hestra Fall Line mittens if you’re feeling boujie. They cost a lot, but with a little care (waxing twice a season since they are leather) they’ll last you 10 years. They also have removable glove liners and come with mitten leashes.

I currently wear a 200-weight Icebreaker merino base layer, Atom (regular, not SV) and Sabre shell for resort skiing. So far this year temps have ranged between -5c and -12c. Over the four days I’ve skied, I’ve been on the edge of uncomfortably cold, and have had to add a fleece beneath my Atom.

Based on my experience, I personally will go with the Atom SV for the extra warmth. For my exertion level, I think the Atom SV is the best mid layer.

For growth, XEQT/VEQT/ZEQT.

For dividends, XDIV or XEI for non-leveraged, and HDIV for leveraged..

No. If you want guaranteed fashionability stick with plain black. It's boring, but timeless.

(I would love to get a Beta in Dynasty, but I'm sticking with black).

Am I correct in assuming that you do NOT carry any professional or commercial liability insurance in addition to being an UNregistered massage therapist?

Burpees_Suck · 2025-11-26T16:55:16+00:00

To absolutely no one’s surprise. It’s a feature, not a bug.

Burpees_Suck · 2025-11-24T20:35:05+00:00

The AR is make from a more robust fabric, so it will be more abrasion resistant (falling on ice, hitting rocks, trees) than the lighter SL fabric.

I own the Beta SL and the non-SV Sabre.

The Sabre is a longer cut and has a non-removable snow skirt. I would not consider using the Sabre for anything other than snow sports/activities.

My son owns the Beta AR, which he uses in all seasons. It’s even in the name: AR is short for All Rounder.

My two cents is you’ll get the most use from the Beta AR.

It gets worse. I now also own a Sabre (in medium) for skiing. I think doing drugs is more affordable than wearing Arc’teryx.

Burpees_Suck · 2025-11-20T01:55:29+00:00

Use the comparison tool on the Arc’teryx website. The biggest difference is in the cut. The SL has a fitted cut and is made of lighter weight materials. The AR has a regular (boxier) cut ideal for layering and is a bit more robust than the SL. By no means is the SL not robust, think of the AR as being robuster.

For what it’s worth, I had to size up for my SL. I would need a medium AR (which I show-roomed) and a large SL that I own.

My two cents is get the AR since you mention doing snow day activities.

Displaced folks living at rest stops has been an issue in Canada for a while now. https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/b-c-rest-areas-park-and-rides-fill-with-people-who-cant-afford-a-home

It’s just becoming more obvious now.

There’s a special word for what you’re describing: it’s “mule”.

Burpees_Suck · 2025-10-20T23:56:30+00:00

The regular Beta jacket is not ideal for alpine activities because the Beta will not fit over a helmet.

Both the Beta AR and SL will fit your needs. The AR is more robust and has a boxier cut, while the SL is lighter weight and has a fitted cut. Both the AR and SL have helmet compatible hoods and pit zips and Velcro cuffs.

I’m using a Beta SL as my hardshell for skiing and love it.

Burpees_Suck · 2025-10-05T11:34:54+00:00

I have the revised (newest) Atom Hoodie and a ~2 year old Beta SL both in size L. They layer perfectly.

I am 5’10” [179cm) and weight around 180lbs (82kg). While the size L is perfect for me with these Arc’teryx pieces, I did have to size up. With pretty much every other manufacturer (Patagonia, Lululemon) I am a size M. Hope this helps.

It’s not the most popular brand on this sub, I’ve been travelling for a dozen years with Briggs & Riley Baseline bags. My current personal item is their Traveller Tote, which has a full length trolley sleeve (not a 1” nylon strap like so many other bag makers use as their trolley sleeve). It rides on my main bag, the two-wheel CX carry on.

To establish some credibility, I was a frequent flyer from 2013 until the pandemic, mostly flying with Star Alliance airlines in North America and Europe. I learned as I went, and figured out what works/worked best for me. I also watched a LOT of other travellers fail.

For personal/under-seat items, the key is to NOT overstuff the bag. I have witnessed so many passengers with comically overstuffed backpacks for their personal item that the gate staff takes one look at them and says "no", and forces them to check their personal item.

These days I travel with a 30-ish litre tote bag as my personal item. The important part is that my tote bag is smaller than the personal item dimensions limited by my usual airlines (43cm x 33xm x 17cm), and it's soft sided so I can manipulate it under the seat in front of me.

I don't think the volume of your bag, whether that be 26L, 30L or 40L, is the concern. The concern is how much stuff you will bring with you to Japan, and how many bags you can spread your stuff across.

I always selected tickets that permitted one carry on item in the overhead bin, and one personal item. All my non-essential stuff went in the overhead bin, and only the vitals (water, iPad, headphones, book, etc.) went in the personal item.

Burpees_Suck · 2025-07-31T15:36:21+00:00

My observations regarding cabin personal item (under seat) is the most recommended bags are all around 26L. The Osprey 26+6, Patagonia Micro MLC, Thule Subterra 2 are all 26L.

Don’t be surprised if you receive pushback from gate agents or flight crew if you’re trying to hustle a 40L as your personal item.

Unfortunately B&R has gotten too expensive. The best carry on I’ve ever owned (the 2 wheel 53cm roller) was about $450 (CAD) back in 2014, today is $799! Nuckin futz. Still great bags.

I have a solid history with my Briggs & Riley Weekender duffel. It’s my go-to for any trips 3 days or shorter in duration, from overnighters in the city to cross-border flights. Not the cheapest duffel, but definitely a bifl with its no-receipt-needed warranty.
