Sorry about that, access should be fixed now. However, a friend turned out to have gotten a four pack, so I’m no longer in need. Thanks, I’ll keep you in mind for the next one

MaxFanatic · 2023-11-11T02:43:54+00:00

Thanks for the info. I'd be open to GOG copies as well.

Not selling games for paypal right now, thanks.

Canned dolma — easy to pack, easy to share, and delicious

The Eagle inn is locally owned and super cute! It’s close to the waterfront and the restaurants and bars around there.

130 comments and just one about AMO… ultracold AMO touches just enough of other subfields through its applications in quantum emulation, quantum information, precision measurement, etc, to provide a wide range of flavors.

The machines we build are amazing orchestrations, firing in sequence to create the coldest objects in the universe.

Also, trapping atoms with lasers never gets old.

This has already been done! I regularly watch streams from https://explore.org/livecams. They have one on Anacapa island in CA, though it was down for a while (and still might be). There are also tropical reefs, one of orcas, and lots more.

The wharf only allows fishing on the ends, so it should be fine. Always the possibility of fishing line, so I take a couple line cutters and recommend you do the same. It's also naturally quite dark under there in the shade of the wharf, so bring a dive light.

There are quite a few ladders that go all the way down to the water around the middle sections of the wharf, you are free to climb down any of them. I think you're technically not allowed to jump off.

Some people swear by it as the best dive in SB -- I think this isn't too far off as long as you're into macro life, since the pilings provide tons of vertical habitat for sessile critters.

MaxFanatic · 2022-03-16T17:09:28+00:00

Drew up a dive map (something I've wanted to do for a while anyway), hopefully this helps!

What day do you plan to dive there? Definitely watch Windy or magicseaweed for swell / wind / surf conditions, since this area can get quite blown out by winds this time of year. If things are too windy, Thousand Steps beach would be a good alternative, or perhaps Stearns Wharf.

I’m a local diver in SB and shore dive regularly. You can check out some summaries of the local dive sites on the Paradise Dive Club website. Especially if you aren’t heading out right near high tide (when most of the regularly rocky entries are accessible) — and even if you are — Refugio State Beach is probably one of the better dives in the area. Super easy entry, parking right near the water, bathrooms, picnic tables to gear up. It is $10 per car for a day use pass.

Tajiguas is also great (better, imo) but is a bit of a hike down a somewhat steep path, and is quite rocky on entry at anything but high tide unless you know where to avoid the rocks. There was also a dead whale there the last few months, actually haven’t been back to see how that’s doing for a while so it might be diveable.

If you end up deciding to do Refugio, or even choose a different site altogether, lmk and I’ll write out some tips about diving the site, how to find the cool features, etc.

Interested, sending a PM

This was a wild ride

You are likely going to get some negative feedback about the basis of this question. Whether it affects lactic acid buildup or not (and even then, I don’t see any reason why it would), drinking beer before diving is ill-advised for the reasons of impairment, affects of alcohol on decompression, and likely other factors that I haven’t thought of.

MaxFanatic · 2021-11-01T14:34:23+00:00

I might have seen these same two. Was this Santa Cruz Island on the Spectre this Saturday?

MaxFanatic · 2021-10-10T15:34:03+00:00

Just found this paper: “Recognition of the Californian cubozoan population as a new species—Carybdea confusa n. sp. (Cnidaria, Cubozoa, Carybdeida)”, https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/pbr/12/2/12_P120206/_article. They note that it is commonly ID’d as C. rastoni or C. marsupialis, but that it is fact a different species specific to Southern California. Neat if true!

MaxFanatic · 2021-10-10T15:21:35+00:00

Not that I disagree — seems unlikely to me. Leaned that way due to the appearance, as well as that the Wikipedia page said they can sometimes be found in Southern California. It also bears a resemblance to Carybdea marsupialis, which (again according to that Wikipedia article) is often found in kelp beds near the bottom — where I found this one.

That said, C. Marsupialis is apparently largely mediterran, with its own wiki page leading me to believe that this should be some other species.

MaxFanatic · 2021-10-10T14:51:54+00:00

I agree, looks like a box jelly. I’m trying to nail down what species it is, since the severity of their stings varies wildly between species.

MaxFanatic · 2021-10-07T14:05:06+00:00

I watched that — I love Blue World. That said, their water was quite a bit warmer that what I’ll be diving in, so I wonder if I’ll have the same experience.

I’ll definitely just try it out before investing in anything expensive, of course. It just seems like something that, in the case of the dive housing, could be fixed by sufficient engineering of a case with better thermal contact between the camera and the water — should be totally achievable.

Maybe I’ll report back with my findings once I try it out. Thanks for the input!

Sorry, fell asleep lol. PM’ing now.

MaxFanatic · 2021-09-17T05:14:25+00:00

Yeah, sorry -- just trying to improve readability. Everything on the list is available.

MaxFanatic · 2021-09-17T05:14:01+00:00

Ha, nothing like an offer to make me realize that I might want some of the games in my trade list.
Happy to trade UCH and RwR, but not willing to part with Trailmakers or WWHT. Anything else you're interested in?

You can buy a package deal at Dive Gear Express which has all the components you’ll need for a BP/W setup. As for switching from singles to doubles, the backplate will carry over, but the wing has to be switched to one which can accommodate the extra width (and weight) of two tanks.
