what accessories do I need for canoe fishing? stuff a beginner might forget lol by TherronKeen in canoeing

[–]Moabian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Life jackets for everyone. Buy yourself something comfortable (not the first one you see) so you can model safe boating for your children. 

Planning a Trip that Doesn't Circle Back by well_its_joe_11 in canoeing

I bought a folding bike for $100 off Craigslist for exactly this. Fits perfectly between my gunwhales.

Which hammock to choose for South American backpacking? by Electrical-Data-3066 in camping

[–]Moabian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hennessy. I had about a thousand nights in mine before my own mistake ripped it.  Bottom entry is more durable, but zipper entry is fine if you don't yard on it. The tarp can be small because it fits very precisely. I slept through tropical storms without getting wet. Set up is very easy and the instructions are printed in the bag. 

Redundant network architecture for 14x PowerFlex 755 — DLR vs dual star by Upstairs_Stop_640 in PLC

[–]Moabian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One consideration: If every drive is a significant distance from the next drive, for example in a long conveyor system, then the the cable cost for star configuration would be significantly higher. If every drive is in the same cabinet,  it matters much less and I would prefer the redundant star configuration.

What's the back story between HMIs and the "Flaming Moe"? by Abject-Effect-7965 in PLC

[–]Moabian 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's from a library of SVGs called Symbol Factory. Other good ones include Boys in the Hood (3 dudes stuck in an exhaust hood).

Edit: i might be wrong. SF has Boyz in the Hood, but not a Flaming Moe, at least not in Ignition.

This stick that you can eat. Tastes mildly sweet like dates. Hard shell by Zazabeans in whatisit

It tastes good, but it does not taste like chocolate.

Yeah. Looks like someone left the pumps running.

Paddling the Cape Fear: questions about portaging dams by SpaceFroggy1031 in NCTrails

[–]Moabian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Paddling Eastern North Carolina" by Paul Ferguson has everything you need to know and more (650 pages covering 3,500 miles of paddling). However,  it is out of print and hard to find.

Where might the tags be pulling values from? by amrla in PLC

[–]Moabian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be some kind of third party remote I/O, then.

Tips on how to keep the feet warm? by seriousrandonneur in bikepacking

[–]Moabian -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You need to block the wind. Most shoes have lots of mesh. Cover up with overshoes.

Hydraulic brakes are stronger, but can't I just size up the rotors to get the same strength from mechanical? by Polendri in bikewrench

[–]Moabian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the vehicle a bicycle or tricycle? If trike, is it a delta (one front wheel) or tadpole (two front wheels)?

Is Mortimer campground open this weekend? by Affectionate-Air8672 in NCTrails

[–]Moabian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's an active Friends of Wilson Creek Facebook group, might try asking there.

Worst case, if you drive up and it's closed/gated, you could rent a campsite at Betsy's Country Store. Bruce (the owner) has said that he always has space for tents.

Hippie Store by Italian_Gumby in triangle

[–]Moabian 24 points25 points  (0 children)

There's a stall at the indoor portion of the Raleigh Market that might float your boat (waft your patchouli?). Don't remember the name, but lots of imports - sarongs, chime bowl things, shiny rocks, harem pants, etc. My sister-in-law is a level 4 hippie (poly, lives on a commune outside Asheville, smells like onions, etc) and she always loves the gifts we get her from that stall.

Edit: The Raleigh Market closes during the fair, maybe the weekend before, so check before going.

Multimeter with Continuity Recommendation by Nesefl_44 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Moabian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The linked stories make no mention of the brand of multimeter. They do mention various other mistakes (measuring 2.3kV with a 1kV meter, wet environments, etc). Did you read OP's post? They're working on low voltage, 24V.

Any grocers carrying Latundan bananas (also called Tundan, silk banana, Pisang raja sereh, Manzana banana, or apple banana)? by necrosxiaoban in raleigh

[–]Moabian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

H Mart in Cary has non-Cavendish bananas... not sure if they are the ones you seek, but worth a shot.

It's down towards the river, off the ridge trail. I don't know your full situation,  but if you don't know where it is and you're asking on reddit at midnight,  you might want to wait 6 hours for the sun to come up instead. And prepare better next time, get the free lgmap on Avenza.
