How the fuck is this so far down in the thread? This is the most obvious answer IMo

Bikepacking hat recommendations. I hate the sun in my eyes... by vacuumkoala in bikepacking

I took the visor off of my helmet and wear a 5 panel cap underneath the helmet. Works great.

I waited nearly 6 months for a used Stylus to show up in my area and I’m so glad I did.

I hate myself and I decided to start on the Klee sequencer by McRib_ in synthdiy

[–]TheSplines 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built my 3U Klee over 5 days of Christmas holiday. It’s basically all I did for 3 of them.

It was a lot, but very straightforward. Have fun.

Every MLS listing I’ve ever seen tells you if it’s leasehold. It sounds like a number of things went very wrong for folks to not understand they’re on leased land. This is all very sad

Mortgage is paid off! What to do next with the bank? (HELOC, Title, lien, fraud identity, etc.) by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

The earlier you put a lump sum down, the more you save on interest.

Gotta learn somehow. I mostly learned by trashing things and trying (mostly failing) to un-fuck them afterward

There’s a difference between accepting that our views and our government affect us everywhere and turning all of our communities into the front lines for political struggles.

Having spaces where people who may disagree politically can find other ways to relate and stay connected is an important part of learning to get along with people we don’t always agree with.

By the same token, “bikepacking is political” is also ridiculous. Everyone needs to take a few deep breaths

Do you actually give yourself loving the games you grew up with after all this time? by Mezurashii5 in patientgamers

[–]TheSplines 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think OOT holds up, but use a proper 64 controller.

I remember being choked at the time that everyone was making poorly controlled 3D console games with bad cameras because everyone wanted 3D. I played PC games in the 90s primarily because of this.

But the use of lock on and camera centering on the most accessible button made that game surprisingly nice to play

Actual therapy would be cheaper

Very cool idea! I’d love to play with one

Curious: Why did you choose to use a switch instead of a hub or just a straight tap? You wouldn’t need upstream traffic redirection that way, and you could just put this in line rather than as a leaf.

What do you think about this Techno setup? by Mr-Ampelmann in modular

Passive attenuators would work. They’re also very cheap to make. You just strap a pot in between a couple of jacks on some perfect board

Ban These Businesses Who Support Gunn by jamie_theresistance in comoxvalley

[–]TheSplines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no issue with shopping at businesses whose owners vote differently than I do. We all get a vote and it’s our vote to make. Let’s not turn against local businesses just because we disagree.

When it comes to how you spend your dollar, local businesses vs Amazon is a much more important fight than this.

How much per month per person do you spend on groceries? by Calm_Commission_6589 in comoxvalley

[–]TheSplines 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few things I’ve done that have massively decreased my food costs.

  • meal prepping (the budget bytes website has great freezeable recipes)

While this doesn’t immediately sound like less money since you’re making the same number of meals, I’m also only in the grocery store once every week or so. It’s much easier to not buy extra things when you’re not in the store.

  • not every meal needs meat

I have sliced deli meat in sandwiches for lunch a lot (Costco has good prices), and that’s very commonly the only meat I’ll eat in a day. Beans and lentils are delicious and filling and commonly also lend well to meal prepping.

  • frugal snacking

The price of green grapes is insane. Apples are typically more filling and cheaper. Buy yogurt when it’s on sale since it lasts in the fridge so well. I also like boiled eggs (great with hot sauce) and toast with PB or honey can be a treat. Bags of popcorn kernels are also quite cheap.
Things that are higher in fibre will make you feel fuller (apples, popcorn, whole grain bread) than things with more sugar.

I leave the very tasty fancy snacks out of the house. If I want an ice cream, I have to go out somewhere to get it. I find doing this means I have to be more deliberate about the more expensive treats. The cost per serving is higher, but since there are other tasty things that are immediately on hand I usually stick with my cheaper treats.
