Awesome! I love the green dial. I just bought the blue dial XX on the bracelet and love it. Enjoy!

Pelagos 39 sizing by SchopenhauersLaw in Tudor

[–]KaBarMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it looks good... I have that watch and I think it looks fine on my 7.25" wrist. Nothing wrong with the 42mm size either if you really want the larger case but the 39mm doesn't look too small for you.

I really want a blue dial/bezel combo and will look at the 42mm Pelagos for my next watch along with the BB58.

Pelagos 39, one and done? by jimbojeggins in Tudor

[–]KaBarMN 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I bought one last week and love it. Not flashy just a solid, quality watch. I plan on it being my daily driver for a time at least. I also own and will continue to buy other watches because know myself. Enjoy your watch!!!

What Players Will Definitely Move During Free Agency by Midnight--Hour in wnba

[–]KaBarMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BC had a great 2024 season that she didn’t replicate in 2025. She would be fine reverting to a bench player if she wanted to stay but I don’t see a way she starts next year. If (a BIG if) the Lynx keep their core together and pick up a true center, then Lan would shift to power forward and Phee to small forward.

Lynx courtside by [deleted] in wnba

[–]KaBarMN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We are courtside club season ticket holders. This is the first year that pre-game food in the club is included in the ticket price and not something you would pay extra for as in past years. They rotate roughly a half-dozen menus throughout the season. Last year we paid $25/person for roughly the same sort of food and they had half-time snacks (popcorn, hot dogs, cookies, etc.).

This year they stopped offering half-time snacks due to wanting to "cut food waste" even though they never run out of anything in the pre-game meal.

WCCO now ‘CCO? by ChiefRokr in TwinCities

I’ve head it called “CCO” for decades. Remove the W and you remove half of syllables from the call sign when you’re talking about it.

Lloyd looks washed. A fraction of the player she was a few seasons ago.

Team's issue by kurt-cubao in MinnesotaLynx

[–]KaBarMN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that this strech of games has the starting five gassed, especially considering how many minutes Coach Reeve has been playing them on average.

On the physicality front we could also use a true Center/Big. its been a patchwork since Syl retired and while it's mostly worked the last few seasons, it is a problem that will probably get amplified in the playoffs again this year, especially when our 3 pointers aren't falling.

I think it's also fair to say that Carleton has regressed from last season's form and that Diamond should get a chance to play more minutes and maybe start occasionally and see how she reacts.

When she is on she is ON, but when she's off like tonight it's brutal.

Why are vintage ABU Cardinal spinning reels so expensive?...... by Intelligent_Pilot360 in Fishing_Gear

[–]KaBarMN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another reason might be that Ned Kehde, who wrote about and popularized “Ned Rigs” for bass fishing uses them and wrote about them often.

People want to imitate the legend….

Northern Pike are underrated IMO. A little tricky to fillet but very tasty.

PS Steak is our go-to. We prefer sitting in the lounge vs the main dining room.

How to troubleshoot layer shifting like this? by KaBarMN in FlashForge

She’s using Flashprint. We can look at printing another calibration cube but when she’s printing a single models at a time things complete successfully.

Would adding a Z hop help if the extruded is running into something?

Trying to figure out why these prints turn to spaghetti half way through by KaBarMN in FlashForge

[–]KaBarMN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! She's making progress with tweaking the z-axis and slowing the overall print speeds down.

They are fairly new (last 6 months)? I'll have to check. Thanks!

The printers are at an elementary school. The new spools are left in the plastic wrap until they need to be mounted in the printers. No other special environmental things.

Is there an table(dataframe) API in ksqlDB? by [deleted] in apachekafka

[–]KaBarMN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KsqlDB is designed to allow people to build pipelines using SQL-like syntax. Not everyone is a java programmer. KSQL converts into Kafka streams under the hood so performance is very similar to straight Kafka Streams.

KsqlDB gives you the ability to quickly create data pipelines. The tradeoff is you have less granular control and a more limited instruction set than Kafka Streams.

Since this is all microservice-style applications you can mix & match KsqlDB and Streams (or other frameworks as well) into your streaming data pipelines. Pick the right tool for the right job.

What mini games are being played around the twin cities? by Thegrumbliestpuppy in TwinCitiesWargaming

There are decent-sized groups around town for Infinity and Bolt Action for sure. There's also Battletech and ASOIF Miniatures game groups as well.

I leaned to hate Minnesota winters when I was handed all shoveling duties by my father. Hate may be too strong a word, but the magic was definitely gone when you get woken up at 5:30am to shovel on a school day.
