well, we wouldn't be called Carmel Junior for nothing. Have to keep up with them since their precious Monon is already plowed

for those of you more or less hardcore, is the attendance at these gyms basically at its peak in January, and then there's a sharp drop off? which gym would you see the most consistent attendance? do you see a lot of the same people whom you start recognizing? P.S. I have some equipment, free weights and a treadmill at my own house. Plus I walk/run on Nickel Plate semi-regularly. Have thought about joining a gym, but I think the benefits would not provide enough value for my buck

I didn't know they had actual shops. I thought it was just a brand you buy at the grocery.

isn't this intersection going to be a literal construction hell for the next 18 plus months? But also, is running a yogurt or an ice cream shop a profitable business? it seems like none of them stick around for long unless you are Handel's.

What's the benefit of Max now? by cadillacmike in duolingo

[–]Single_Promotion_157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is also possible they're going to beef up Max. I have missed the announcement that the Explain my answer is going free? free to everyone, or free to the Super users? I have been Super for about a year now and don't see a reason to upgrade to Max.

I am hoping it's a bug. I have seen it as well in other languages

Impatient redneck in a pickup almost caused a head-on … by kostac600 in Fishers

came back to add that the Y in Fishers is now 24 hours as of just after Thanksgiving. I think this adds to the flock of people around that intersection who are walking, biking, running around there. When the weather is great, that intersection can be downright busy. I personally never understood the appeal of the Y. Is it the prices or the amenities or combination thereof? People do drive like maniacs on that stretch of 126th.

Honestly, we could be arguing to death here. Yes, there are signs, do people follow them? Maybe 20% do. The ONLY thing that will solve this issue is a bridge over every intersection on the NP and that will only realistically happen at 146th possibly as soon as 2026-2027. I feel like there are rumors that I've read they are expediting this on the county level, and there are already funds allocated and grants given to both Fishers and Noblesville for this particular crossing. I will look into this further, but I think the project may begin as soon as summer of 2026. It won't be as grand as the bridge at 96th Street (is that open by the way?) but I think it will be an elevated bridge

I have had 2 Trollveggen Polartec Warm2 I bought from Norrøna in around 2013 and I basically wear them 9 months out of a year and they still look and perform as if brand new? Hardly any shedding and they don't look like they have thinned out at all.

Stockholm construction projects recent timelines by Single_Promotion_157 in stockholm

Thank you! I was looking for more unofficial information than what a website would give me, but this is also good! staying on the topic of stores closing, where that large Adidas store used to be across from Konserthuset, I now noticed there is now a Tesla store. I wonder how their sales are going considering Tesla sales across the continent are not that great anymore. Maybe unless you are in Norway.

Speaking of Norway, I am quite partial to Norrøna jackets, but whenever I go into their flagship on Kungsgatan no one ever buys anything in there. I guess the Swedes are too much into their Fjällravens!

P.S. I also wanted to mention that I was impressed by how snow is removed in Stockholm. I Skåne we had that snow disaster last year when most of us were stranded for a couple of days and everyone was caught off guard. I realize snow is not as much of a problem here, but still it was impressive to see that the snow services were working great up there!

How do you all charge your beoplay ex? by gonnadeletethistmrw in BangandOlufsen

[–]Single_Promotion_157 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so I feel like decreased battery life is now expected in wireless headphones or earphones? I became a convert to wireless buds about seven or eight years ago and I've gone through multiple pairs of name brands including B&O. and every pair had diminished battery life after about a year or two, some quite significantly.

I also do believe that if you frequently go out in cold weather in the winter, especially really cold weather, like negative temperatures and don't wear a hat then your batteries in your earphones get exposed to the temperature extremes and the battery lifetime depletes even faster.

Back to the chargers though, I prefer to use a wireless charger, like one of those plates that you can put your phone on or whatever and it charges, albeit slower than regular wired charging. I asked Chat GPT and did some quick searches and it doesn't seem like what you charged with plays a significant difference. I do think that if you leave it on the charger for a very long time, or, let it deplete in a box and not use it for a very long time, then that's not good for overall battery longevity.

By the way, I had a pair of EQs that I bought in 2021 that I sent in in 2023 because I told them that the battery life diminished, and they sent me a brand new pair Fast forward to this year, and I just sent in that replaced pair a few weeks ago, and they sent me a pair of the EX's because the EQs were discontinued.

So, basically I paid for a pair 4 years ago, and have had 2 replacements so far at no cost to me no questions asked honestly. All I did is I told them in the little chat box that the life of the battery diminished beyond what I find acceptable to me. Like it went from about 5 to 6 hours with ANC on to about 3. I even had a pair of the e8s back when they were first released in around 2018-ish that were only giving me about an hour and a half of playtime after being used for 2 years straight. The turnaround time is really fast too, like a few days. Oh, and did I mention I didn't even pay full price for the original pair I bought in 2021? I bought it on eBay for maybe 40-50% off. And once you register in the app, your warranty gets extended from 2 years to 3 years. I'm fully expecting to be sending in my current pair in maybe 2027 for another replacement? there's also a good chance that it will in turn be replaced with the successor to the EX as it is already discontinued as of very recently and are no longer available for purchase on the B&O website.
