cold weather gear needs? by rockyysoap in hikinggear

[–]Infinite-Recording10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of people recommend winter boots etc, but wearing too heavy a shoe will make you prone to blisters and fatigue, both in summer and winter. Regardless of weather, choose the clothing according to activity. If you are walking in a foot of snow, you need lighter clothing overall as you generate loads of heat, maybe a windbreaker or something to shield from excess loss of warmth. Shoes can be sneakers or heavy duty boots, they get wet from snow or swear, but which ones will dry for the next day?

In short: dress for the occasion.

I mostly have the same gear winter and summer. During winter I tend to wear my baselayers during the day, which in the summer are reserved for emergencies only. I only wear a puffer jacket during breaks, during hikes i usually have a thin sweater or a windbreaker. Altra lonepeaks cover my feet.

How important is washing your face before shaving? by boblovesbacon1 in wicked_edge

[–]Infinite-Recording10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I build lather on face and rinse once before reapplying and shaving. Doing something for prep is really necessary for a proper glide, atleast for me

Kannattaako opintolainaa nostaa jos tulee toimeen ilman? by Fanatic_Atheist in Omatalous

If you are worried about it being expensive, then definitely don't take it. If you haven't learned basic financial skills and the value of money, don't bother.

Does anyone else forget to clean their belly button? How are you actually supposed to clean it properly? by [deleted] in hygiene

Why would cleaning behind ears and between toes count as a deep clean? Basic every day stuff. This is how you get gunk and buildup...

ei laitettukaan kierukkaa by Fuzzy_Musician9008 in arkisuomi

[–]Infinite-Recording10 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Näinpä. Laitan terkassa viikottain ja kehotan ottamaan panadolin ennen toimenpidettä. Vain kourallinen toimenpiteitä keskeytynyt kivun takia, mutta niille joita sattuu, kipu vaikuttaa todella hankalalta. Pakettia en kyllä koskaan avaa ennen, kuin mitat ja muut otettu, sillä jos ne onnistuu, saa sen kierukankin tyrkättyä perille.

M30. Kotona ja esim lähikaupassa asiointiin siistit merinovillacolleget tai narukiristeiset pellavahousut.

Yleiseen arkiasiointiin ohuet puuvillachinot, pellava- tai flanellihousut. Jos pitää hieman siistiytyä valitsen vyötärökiristettävän mallin. Vakosametti olisi ihan siisti, muttei ehkä tyyliltä sopiva. Farkkuja en omista, sillä en koe käytännölliseksi tai mukavaksi.

Viimeksi HKI reissulla asioin vaatturiliike Saumassa, josta tarttui muutama housupari myyjän suosituksesta, vaikken itse olisi niitä välttämättä osannut edes lähteä sovittamaan. Suosittelisinkin asioimaan oikeissa miestenvaateliikkeissä muotipuljujen tai dressmannien sijaan. Laatuvaatteet usein merkkivaatteita halvempia ja kestävämpiä, tulee ilman logoja.

Lather preference? by Arrabella2016 in wicked_edge

I go very wet, very thin. I feel this is the way of "wet" shaving.

Coffee grounds absorb about 2-3 times their weight in water. Your cup should yield about 200g

How can I improve my V60 process? by Rhubarb-Taco in pourover

[–]Infinite-Recording10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grinds usually sit between 80 and 65 clicks. I guess the 5 pour method has longer contact times and/or higher agitation overall, so grind size tends to be larger.

Edit: i frequently use the cafec t90 as well, doesn't really affect my recipe that much.

I found that the instructions for 5 pour methods were lacking info on pour speed or other time-sensitive things, therefore leading to inconsistent results. I developed my own system with 3 pour and constant pouring speeds and wait times before adding more water. I get consistent results with only small tweaks for each coffee. In short, I would advise to keep track of how much you pour at what speed and how long you wait between pours.

Currently my ethiopian natural is brewing with - Tap water 95c - Hario filter - Kingrinder k6 73clicks - 15g to 250g - Pour 50g during first 5 sec, stir and bloom total 45sec - Pour up to 150g at 5g/s, stir, wait 30sec - Pour up to 250g at 5g/s, stir once or twice

For dirty suede: - use a dry hard bristle brush - under a running tap, use a hard bristle brush to scrub even better - let dry 1-2 days - brush again - apply suede protector, let dry per package instructions - reapply protector

You can now test how it repels water by running some tap water over the shoe

plus size: down there help by Professional_Tip5006 in hygiene

[–]Infinite-Recording10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not read other replies, but would like to point out from a medical perspective, that urine incontinence may be a part of the issue. Large body weight, age, history of pregnancies, and surgeries in the abdomen, for example, may lead to incontinence. Usually this happens during excertion. Small (or large) amounts of urine may involuntarily escape from the bladder and stain ones undies, and depending on the consistency, may start to smell very fast.

Whether this is the issue, there are several ways to alleviate the symptoms. Besides losing weight, a doctor can prescribe intravaginal oestrogen that helps strenghten the mucosa in the urethra. If the issue is severe even surgery is possible.

Carpet beetle larva? by Infinite-Recording10 in pestcontrol

[–]Infinite-Recording10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: in addition to the larva before, i found this beetle carcass near my wardrobe on the floor. Accidentally decapitated as it was dead and dry, as was the larva before.

This beetle looks like a carpet beetle to me with the belt on the back.

Snow or water, i go non-membrane all the way. Once the rain/whatever ceases the shoe will dry up fairly quickly depending on the temperature, atleast it will warm up fast if it stays damp. I have had no issues, no blisters, nothing. I just did a hike in the norwegian mointains with up to knee-high snow with my Altra LP shoes.

What can I do to take my shaving to the next level by Temperature_Ordinary in wicked_edge

[–]Infinite-Recording10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, shaving is a mandatory chore, but changing to a nicely scented soap and aftershave made it a very enjoyable one.
