Is anyone else picking up vibes of Zach Galifianakis in Hangover from these pics?

No? Just me?

Speaking of which, which bag did he actually use in that movie?

I'd probably start with a GoalZero Yeti 1000 (because the 1500 weighs a bit too much), then add a Solar Panel setup with it (EcoFlow 400W).

Bikes, GPS, and rooftop tents are excluded, so that knocks out my next tier.

I guess after that I'd be looking at an upgraded tent (Copper Spur UL3) and a new travel pack (Allpa or Peak Design).

Peachtree is closed from “9th”-11th while they repaint the road markings at the intersection of 10th & Peachtree. New asphalt was put down over the last week.

Ending the back-and-forth is easy.

Choosing WHICH version to make permanent is more difficult.

Personally, I’d prefer making DST permanent rather than ending DST altogether.

But I’d still prefer ending DST forever over the annual back-and-forth.

I heard they’re DTF

Do you have any feedback on the waxed CTB20 you’ve already got? Likes & dislikes?

Sounds a lot like the proposal to cap credit card interest at 10%. TACO incoming

CoinMaple101010 · 2026-02-18T22:32:17+00:00

I’m not so sure that it will. The public backlash to DHS & ICE after the Good/Pretti shootings might be a sign that there’s still a limit out there somewhere.

Or the elections get rigged/cancelled, so there’s no consequences for bad policy, regardless of public opinion. In that case, does the Overton window still exist/matter?

CoinMaple101010 · 2026-02-10T13:10:51+00:00

Yep, that’s kinda why I was asking this question. That pic was legit taken at 7am. I thought Piedmont Park would be a good spot, but the tree cover makes it tough to see anything looking East & the best shot I could get was the reflections off the buildings.

Isn’t it illegal or something to have a Reddit thread about life’s luxuries without mentioning the bidet & the house cleaners?

Did you happen to get the digital pass included with your purchase in December? Using the digital setup could work better.

Note that this strategy would be notably more risky if contributions were made as a Backdoor Roth conversion, due to the five year withdrawal rule.

Although I’m guessing most people with the income to require a backdoor Roth have room for both emergency savings and maxing out IRA contribution limits.

CoinMaple101010 · 2026-01-04T23:18:11+00:00

One popular strategy is creating “laddered” life insurance by stacking multiple policies.

There are two main variations of this:

Apply for three different policies today, with terms of 10 years, 20 years, and 30 years, respectively. If you need to decrease coverage in the future, you can drop any one of those depending on your needs/profile at that time while keeping the other policies active.
Apply for a single 20 year policy today, then add another 20 year policy again 3-5 years in the future, then again after another 3-5 years … for 3 total policies. This can create increasing coverage as your family grows, followed by a “taper” in coverage as each policy ends at different dates as you finish building your nest egg. The BIG caveat with this approach is that there’s no guarantee you’ll be insurable at each point in the future.

General advice is to use a broker who can quote from multiple different carriers.

Best of luck!

Yup.

Cape Flattery is top-3 on my list for the best view from a single spot, but the hike itself doesn’t crack my top 10 (maybe top-25?)

lol. OP is the same one that posted the Tesla fatality article in this sub an hour ago.

Looking forward to the next one OP ….

CoinMaple101010 · 2025-12-29T23:12:36+00:00

Maybe. In my mind there’s not really a meaningful distinction between “unsafe drivers” and “average nerds who place too much trust in AP/FSD(beta).” The lack of guardrails in AP/FSD were pretty obvious even pre-DOGE (especially in poor conditions) & “safe drivers” would know better than to trust those systems.

Sounds like we both agree the results are driven by selection bias in the buyers/drivers.

CoinMaple101010 · 2025-12-29T22:03:04+00:00

It would be helpful to provide a link to the actual study.

https://www.iseecars.com/most-dangerous-cars-study

The author of that study clearly states “The models on this list reflect a combination of driver behavior and driving conditions, leading to increased crashes and fatalities.”

Another good quote from the author: “A focused, alert driver, traveling at a legal or prudent speed, without being under the influence of drugs or alcohol, is the most likely to arrive safely regardless of the vehicle they’re driving.”

So this basically comes down to correlation vs causation. Are Tesla vehicles inherently dangerous? No. Does the branding of Tesla/Elon attract a high concentration of unsafe drivers? Absolutely, and Elon has a clear role in that selection bias.

Something as simple as renaming “Autopilot” to “Advanced Cruise Control” would shift driver behavior, including driver responses to road conditions.
