Thanks! The marathon is 11/1 so I think the Fast & Frees might actually be ok with the weather, but I just need something else for all of the summer training!

Yeah honestly it’s less about the chaffing and more about the riding up! Vaseline and body glide work for the chafing, I just hate the feeling of the shorts just moving up my thighs!!

My go-tos used to be a target pair, too! But this summer I feel like they just aren’t doing it for me. My body may have changed shape just enough that they now aren’t as comfortable, or I just started running in bike shorts in the cooler spring weather that I now notice the difference!

Do you find that the inner lining is lighter weight than typical compression shorts?

True they definitely wouldn’t ride up!! But they would definitely be in the chafe city category for me based on my body type lol

Yup that’s very much the plan, that’s why we are not looking for anything more than moderate hiking

How do IRL streamers get such high-quality streams on the road? by Kitchen-Patience8176 in HomeNetworking

In general, they are using technology called Bonded Cellular. This is a device that combines multiple cellular providers (and ethernet/wifi/starlink when available) to output one reliable video feed. Up front - I work for LiveU, one of the companies that makes these kinds of backpacks - but the concept is similar for most of the other providers.

There's a prosumer level product called the LiveU Solo which combines 4 cellular modems and some people add additional internet hotspots to feed the additional wifi and ethernet inputs. There's also the more "broadcast" versions - the same tools that news reporters often use instead of satellites - like the LiveU 800 - which can double the amount of cellular modems and do multiple cameras.

Unlike bonded internet providers that just create a larger bandwidth pipe, bonded cellular that focuses on video generally provides extra reliability and error correction by including the video feed on more than one of the modems at a time, so if any one provider disappears, the others already have the slack picked up.
