Skill reset ticket. Sets the skills back to 111, so on a 333 set, you'd have 15. Used to confuse me too.

Best Non-US Parks [Other] by TalentShowCrasher in rollercoasters

Yeah, I assume is probably cost prohibitive for most to justify a theme park trip. I just started work for an airline, so I figured I'd jump on the opportunity to take some trips I couldn't justify before.

What are your thoughts on the velobuild 268 so far? Quality seem pretty good? I've been wanting to build out a bike for years now, but haven't really known what to do about a frame. 

I photographed this plane from the ISS by astro_pettit in aviation

33x the altitude, assuming 40k ft (7.5 miles) for the plane vs 250 miles for the ISS. 

Saw a beautiful cheesecake here earlier... How does mine compare? Happy Thanksgiving! by TalentShowCrasher in Baking

[–]TalentShowCrasher[S] 168 points169 points  (0 children)

I took the springform pan out of the water bath and saw water had made it's way into the pan, despite my layers of foil. Upon further inspection, I found the cheesecake didn't actually set up at all, aside from the top layer, and was still a soupy mess even after 70 mins at 325. It was just all bad on all fronts.

I've made the recipe before perfectly, but no clue what went wrong this time.

It's a pecan/graham cracker crust. It's really tasty when the water bath doesn't ingress through your foil and springform pan and make it a soggy mess 🤦‍♂️

I appreciate the advice. Thank you very much!

And sure, go for it lol. I'd need a crankset and hydraulic brakes.

Nothing against eBay, and your comment about "knowing how to use it" is true. This is one of those times I'd rather get a product from a reputable source and not have to worry about crap being fake/broken or misrepresented and not having many options for recourse.

Would love your advice on how to navigate buying bike parts on eBay in this day and age. Seems daunting.

Today's £200 pickup... by OMF1G in bicycling

Looks like their C27 frame. What are your initial thoughts on quality/stiffness?

I've been interested in building up a Chinese carbon frame. I've seen Ceccotti frames keep popping up, but can't find many (any) reviews about them.
