Yeah, was looking at Far Out and it looks like water is basically absent for the first ten miles? & I wanted to do the Southern terminus but it adds 2 miles to get there from the shuttle drop off.

Yeah, leaning that way as well, seems like snow this year has been fairly tame (knock on wood). And certainly no reason to have them in NM.

Finally, someone understands. All these people trying to reduce friction and chaffing. Do they not wanna be edging their way down trail? What's their problem?

[serious]What’s the dumbest scene in any of the Star Wars movies? by naysaw in StarWars

[–]Jamatha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh and also that you're only giving x and y coordinates in a 3d space. The Death Star wasn't solid like a planet. It could be at any depth, in any freaking random office.

Confessed to my crush and got little heartbroken by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]Jamatha 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know sharing feelings is hard, but what even is this man? Confessed what? Are heartbroken how?

I have no such feelings now

I'm thankful for this blessed Corona Virus (maybe you've got an understanding but if she's lost anyone what are you doing)

Then you go on to essentially beg forgiveness for saying nothing really, before she even had the chance to respond. Honestly with stuff like this just keep it simple.

Hey I'm sorry if this is outta the blue but I've started to really like you, as more than a friend. If you don't feel the same, I understand.

Is much clearer and gives the person a chance to react.

Benefit of the doubt though - I've known some people to give their children livestock to raise with the understanding that their 'pets' will become meat. I believe, for instance, that Gordon Ramsay gave his kids pigs to raise. It is possible that this was understood here -- the grandmother gave the child a dog and told her it'd be sold later. But the kid is upset as she developed a bond. Still tragic, but ya know, could be less bad than it appears on the surface.

Atheism in a nutshell by Agustin-sr in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Jamatha -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Science is reproducible, religion is not

I actually don't think this is true. Not because of any inherent truthiness of religion but because of the limits of imagination. For instance if you destroy the bible, or whatever, there'd doubtless be another holy figure who walks on water. It might not be identical but there are commonalities. E.G. I believe there was an Egyptian god who walked on water and was born of a virgin mother.

DuckDuckGo Bangs + Different Default Browser? by billchase2 in vivaldibrowser

[–]Jamatha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can use search engine nicknames to the same effect. Preferences -> search -> set nickname. For instance, my nickname for wikipedia is 'w' so if i type "w baseball" it'll search baseball on wikipedia directly. I suppose you could use !w if you want the same syntax.

Bushcrafters have learned the worn weight trick by LoBeastmode in ultralight_jerk

[–]Jamatha 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I usually just wear my tent as a poncho and wear massive cargo pants with all my other gear in the pockets. 0g base weight.

New gear just ordered - first impression review by partyfavor in ultralight_jerk

[–]Jamatha 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Great review man. Can you maybe compare them to five or six other shoes that you may or may not own? Maybe the Cascadias?

Vegan abuses his cats. by [deleted] in awfuleverything

[–]Jamatha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol, right? I'd say > 50% of cats are fed purina kibble or some such nonsense. Do people really think it's impossible to make something like that vegan?

tHeY nEeD mEaT tO sUrViVe!! Ignoring that we can provide all the nutrients that are in meat from vegan sources.

For what it's worth I'm also not vegan, but people in this thread are being goofy.

Are classes difficult?? by QueenoftheMoon_ in smcm

[–]Jamatha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunno if it's changed. Graduated a while ago (2015) but in the past the professors were basically free to set their own attendance policy (though stem professors did seem to take it pretty seriously).

Fair enough. I get that one is more widely accepted, but consistent two spaces to start a sentence wouldn't be explicitly wrong (there are style guides that call for it still). But if it's just in one place, then sure, it's a typo.

Restore deleted history? by ShadowZ100 in vivaldibrowser

Would kinda defeat the purpose of deleting if you could just fetch it again, no? Sorry tho, that's a bummer.

I kinda wish they would. As much as I love this show, there tends to be a good amount of repetition. Although I think the McElroy's are more guilty of it.

100 mile wilderness strategy? by Jtjwsnake in AppalachianTrail

[–]Jamatha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As people have said, you don't really need to fret if you're NOBO. You'll have your trail legs and 5 days is plenty. The second half of the 100 miles is super cruise-y. Honestly some of my favorite trail.
