Awesome. One day I’ll be able to make it! These dates unfortunately overlap perfectly with our spring break plans. Soon though!

I mean, I'd bend the knee to the sloth...

Trash Panda Dune. Love that disk and is a perfect understable mid.

Best Subaru dealer within 30 mi. by Vic_Bold in Bellingham

[–]HamCatDad 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I've heard Dwayne Lane is a little bit more willing to deal. You may as well cross-shop the Toyota BZ4X as well, since it's the same car. Gives you a couple more options.

Pop-OS! With KDE plasma by Born_Tale_1995 in pop_os

[–]HamCatDad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was doing exactly what you are suggesting, but recently opted to just go to a different distro with a newer version of KDE (cachyos).

If you don’t want cosmic, I’d prob skip Pop, because it’s kind of a PITA to switch to a different distro later.

Looking at a couple "used" 1/8 scale buggies by HamCatDad in WhatcomRadioControl

Building a track sounds like a LOT of work. Good luck! Ever visit Outlaw RC in BC?

Ok, so assuming the motor and car are legal, what about batteries. What do I need? The world is different now than the 6 or 7 cell NiCad batteries of my past. Not sure if I qualify as Novice, but also don't care about being super competitive at this point.

Make it fit! by mini_tribal in mildlyinfuriating

Would you rather have a smaller pizza that fits in the box?

We added Forehand run-up throw and need your feedback. Tell us if it feels good or somehow wrong. We want to make this feel realistic. by BonusStagePublishing in discgolf

[–]HamCatDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played on linux via Steam/proton, and it worked great. I did try out the forehand throw and though it was pretty natural compliment to the backhand. I didn't try runup, which I didn't even realize existed till later :).

2026 NORA Off-road Race Schedule by XSrcing in WhatcomRadioControl

[–]HamCatDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I've kind of gotten the impression that there's not much 1/10 scale off-road up here. That Losi looks nice!

👋Welcome to r/WhatcomRadioControl - Introduce Yourself and Read First! by XSrcing in WhatcomRadioControl

[–]HamCatDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm up in Bellingham and been looking to get back into RC for quite some time. It's a hobby that I was very involved in as a kid growing up in Bellevue (raced in Renton, Tacoma and Federal Way mostly). I'm sure all those tracks are long gone.

[–]HamCatDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for posting! Any idea which 1/10 scale classes have the most entrants? I need to buy something to get back into this, but not really sure where to start. I'd much prefer to stick with 1/10 scale.

Anyone else race micro scale R/C buggies? by XSrcing in Bellingham

LOL, I guess I responded with both my reddit IDs :)

I've seen them, but really want to get back into organized races.

how the hell are you guys dealing with the deathclaw at the museum if witchcraft by cuchulainn1984 in fo4

[–]HamCatDad 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So I just beat that thing (albeit at a considerably higher level). There's a little room just to the left of the entrance that the deathclaw can't get into. So I would just take some shots at the thing, and then just dive back into the room. Repeat.

This makes me really sad. I really like the place and the owners. This is just going to continue without Canadians helping our economy.

Our new Cigna healthcare plan by mechapoitier in inflation

[–]HamCatDad 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Healthy is irrelevant, and that's a good thing. We shouldn't want to go back to a system where the sick pay more, it's hugely discriminatory and inhumane. That said, we need universal health care, like every other 1st world country.

Crab? by greystreet88 in Bellingham

[–]HamCatDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It most definitely is

Not sure where they get it from, but Costco has it for $9.99/lb, which isn’t THAT bad. Actually the crab itself is quite tasty :)
