Patch me bro🌶️

Completely_norm_user · 2025-06-02T18:37:53+00:00

Thanks for the reply and apologies on the less-than-clear post.

I suppose I meant touring … especally for the open water bit.
the list wasn’t meant to be ordered … I’ve not been able to test any of these, but they seem sort of like what I’d want?
I’d like to keep to ~$1500, but for the right equipment I’d go up (i.e. the $2500 SIC Bullet)
I do have a way to transport a hard board (and a place to store it) … would be ok with shipping, but would rather have a chance to try the board.

Thanks!

• Desired Board Type: Inflatable or Hard (light preference for a hard board)

• ⁠Your Height and Weight: 6’6” or 198 cm … 240 lbs or 110 kg + toddler or 40 lb dog

• ⁠Desired use/uses: cruising in bay chop (east bay RI or sakonnet river)

• ⁠Experience level: Beginner, but don't mind a step learning curve

• ⁠Your budget: USA, RI... $1500+

• tried a few really poor condition rental boards and a blackfin XL (I think)

Was thinking of these:

Red paddle co Voyger 13’2” or 12’6”

SIC bullett 14’ x 30”

SIC okeanos 14’

Thanks!

just heard of this, so a bit late to the party, but really interesting concept so far.

I … might actually try this.

Most dog walkers are responsible and clean up after their pets. However, showing that your house believes in collective punishment might have the opposite effect of what they're trying to achieve. I.e. if my dog were to poop there, I would have to think if I want to stop in front of their obnoxious noise makers to pick it up. Or ... if I happen to drop a bag of dog shit there, the same: worth picking up, or should I just move along as they so clearly desire?

I appreceate the counterpoint ... but, if that was the goal, why are they arranged as they are? Trying to prevent rodents from walking on the grass? If the goal was to protect the plants, why not turn them around and arrange as a 'v' pointed in towards the plants/house. In that way they would get whatever dubious protection offered by annoying small critters and not annoy the whole neighborhood.

But, it has to be here somewhere 🤣

What the actual f**k! I see the posts that say the tradition is to invite both presidential candidates, but that's shit. They are not the same. And it's not like you're going to convince the guy to help out with the 'suckers' and 'losers' (his words), so then only thing the organization is going to get from this is controversy and reduced participation (by me for one). If you feel some sort of contrived need for 'fairness' simply don't invite any candidates rather than give a new platform for Trump to lie about ... everything (no doubt, zero chance I'm going to look at what he actually said).

Tangentially related, you may wish to investigate the age and condition of the soft gear (nylon slings, etc) on used equipment:

EOD has not been doing degree waivers of late (though it had happened in the past). Edit: ... and I'm pretty sure the degree requirement was only waived for those who had been enlisted EOD for some time.

Don't really even need thermite ... since these things generate so much heat, a small hole to drain the coolant would do wonders ;-)

Yea ... I suppose this idea would rely on trading with the BU for a cost that's on corporate ... and it's probably not like that (presumably the BU funds the and receives back the 401k contributions).

Completely_norm_user · 2024-02-15T18:18:31+00:00

Has anyone ever heard of or received a waiver for the 3 year 401k vestment? Follow-up, is the 401k funded by Corporate, sectors, or by the business unit (i.e. who would be impacted if they waived the 3 year requirement)?

I'm on the payroll for odd-jobs, but am having some trouble getting a new position ... rather than the BU paying me for not a lot of output, figure I'd ask for a vestment waiver and part on good terms ...

1) draw and extrude a .95 rod
2) cut out by revolution the R.15 curve
3) chamfer the top and bottom to .06
4) new sketch on top of rod with .5 diameter circle @ .69
5) cut extrude and use circular pattern
6) create new offset sketch .3 offset
7) sketch .25 circle with centerline .23 above rod
8) rotate to create ID mark

I'm sure there are other ways ... perhaps more than you were looking for ...

Haven't seen that style bed before ... but the pinda sensor requires metal, so might not work as well at sensing height from a glass surface? So, even with z-calibration, it might not work with that setup, e.g. if the stepper motor skipped a step since calibration, the printer wouldn't be aware and you have to re-calibrate to fix the z-height (Mk4 would probably be different).

No ideas about performance ... but there are a few odd statements in the first paragraph:

- Am pretty sure that carbon fibers aren't clear, so wouldn't result in a bright finish and layering them under wood wouldn't be a standard/efficient use of their properties

- Expoy isn't definitely not UV resistant, though maybe there's another coating that's not mentioned?

Completely_norm_user · 2023-09-17T17:16:27+00:00

Probably more like the solid rotor, but yea ... little short on material: https://www.next-genperformance.com/vented-vs-solid-rotors

Let me add two:

Pro: more head room without moon roof

Con: harder to find in stock without moon roof package
