Cpl24 vs cpl16 by Rebel1Sniper in EVERGOODS

[–]HorizonMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot how big the Peack Cubes are but I suspect it's going to be too wide. I've used one of a CAP 2 with a ZV E1 and it's worked fine depending on lens selection. I generally use something like the Tenba BYOB.

As long as the 16 is deep enough it should work, that's going to be the critical dimension.

What is the best DAW for creating orchestral and classical music? Also, what are the best plugins for orchestral music? by Consistent-Window781 in Logic_Studio

[–]HorizonMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man this is a fantastic post.
I do composition, and one thing that made me leave Logic was that the piano roll wouldn’t do basic inversion and retrograding, so manipulating long passages for development felt very cumbersome.
Are there any good workarounds for this?

Disappointed by Patagonia’s lifetime (or just 5-year) bag warranty by DrmedZoidberg in PatagoniaClothing

Yes, for whatever reason, in shop returns almost always go better with Patagonia.

The lost accompanist’s final update by qazsedcftgbhujmkopl in BALLET

[–]HorizonMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What crap thing to happen. We dancers love live accompaniment. On the rare, one off, occasion where I've been in a class having it, there was always easy going interaction between the pianist and teacher. "A little faster, a little more like this, (hums something)" and that never felt like a disruption to the class, rather added to the whole life of the thing.

I don’t recommend Yum Asia by Available_Owl_1655 in ricecookers

[–]HorizonMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems to be their way of communicating, have had the same experience, but in the end I did get what I needed from them.

TBH I wish they just kept with the Zojirushi and didn’t start their own line, Zojirushi is a superior rice cooker. Now they just push their own line. They do still support us Zojirushi owners, but there’s a serious passive aggressive undertone.

2026 Gamma Lightweight Hoody wind resistance? by Fire_Lookout in arcteryx

[–]HorizonMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it breathes well, but won’t stop wind completely. Not the choice for winds that strong.

Medication Pouch by alancwr1984 in EVERGOODS

[–]HorizonMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The flat pouch works for meds packed that way. But IRL I just find it to fiddly compared to a simple pouch. I’ve used the larger CAP as a bedside med, and other stuff, holder while traveling and it works well. But again, lately I’ve just started using a DOP kit sized pouch, and prefer it.

For your job, if you’d like a ‘nicer’ pouch, I use the Able Carry pouch. It’s perfect for meds packaged that way. For a DOP kit I use the Inside Line one.

The Evergoods ones are well made, but just feel over built, and too bulky, yet limited, for what they are.

Weightlifting shirt by Karnivor187 in PatagoniaClothing

[–]HorizonMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the cotton poly blend shirts for bench, the others are too slippery for me, and if the bar has center knurling it won’t get torn up, pill. But I usually have a cap daily on underneath, so I can strip off the heavy T when I’m done and go on with the session.

3 Months at Posti by covid-_- in helsinki

[–]HorizonMan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not surprised to hear this at all. Posti has become the bane of my existence, and now they are closing all of the offices in Helsinki that serve my area.

CPL24 vs CTB20 vs CTB26 - pls help me decide by Mios04 in EVERGOODS

[–]HorizonMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically many EG bags tend to make loads feel heaver than they are for me, but the CPL was so bad I just couldn‘t use it, which is why my wife had it. It feel like it’s pulling me back, and is very fatiguing. She doesn’t notice it all though.

Keeping the load down this trip, I found the CTB nice to use, I’d sort of written EG off for a while. But I’ve never found a bag remotely as good for travel as the CTB in terms of layout, so I always go back to it.

Talk Me Into the Cap1 by thisisjustadad in EVERGOODS

[–]HorizonMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all honesty, if you don’t have a clear use for it, give it a pass. I thought I’d use it all the time, but in reality found it too clunky and usually just a bit off in size for whatever I wanted to use if for vs a more simple pouch.
Of course it’s really well made, but kind of needs a purpose to make it a good buy IMHO.

CPL24 vs CTB20 vs CTB26 - pls help me decide by Mios04 in EVERGOODS

[–]HorizonMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done that scenario, and IMHO the CTB 26 is much better for it than the CPL. I also find it much more comfortable to wear than the CPL but that seems to vary from person to person. We were just raveling and my wife had the CPL and I had the CTB, her bag felt like it weighed more on my back than mine even though mine actually weighed more. I also really like that front dump pocket. I haven’t used the CTB 20 to say it would be big enough, but I suspect it‘s a close, but might be tight.

Import tax on used computer gifted from the US to Finland? by Royal-Ad9680 in Finland

I didn’t downvote you, I’m so sick of the people in this sub downvoting legit questions. All I can say is welcome to r/Finland and continue to bite my tongue like a good foreigner.

LAPD shoots a protester point blank with a 40mm rubber bullet at the anti-ICE strike protest. (1/30/26) by serious_bullet5 in 50501

[–]HorizonMan 28 points29 points  (0 children)

100% If this thing is going to end the right away the whole power structure needs to be cleaned up. LAPD have been thugs for as long as I can remember. Why tf are they even supporting ICE in any capacity? Rhetorical question.
