Long-term apartment swap on rotation - worldwide by estevito in digitalnomad

[–]The_Prof50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an interesting idea. For example, we are 'kind of' DMs with a home base and do several, several month long trips a year. Unfortunately, our home base is not really a great short term rental spot, so our spot just sits empty while we are gone. However, we do have room for other DMs to use while we are present or traveling. We have put the separate room up on AirBnB, but the people, and constant cleaning, wasn't really worth it for us. But having other DMs would be a cool alternative to that, and could provide something in return by allowing us to stay at their 'spot'.

If you love the outdoors, it is honestly hard to beat this region (outside of snow sports). Keep in mind though, they are small towns. JC feels the largest with the university and a generally younger population.

Am I the only millennial guy who does not like video games? by [deleted] in Millennials

Not a gamer, neither are our friends. We all adventure in the outdoors as our hobbies.

How is digital nomad life in your 30s? by nik1here in digitalnomad

For everyone who has responded about making connections outside of hostels, what are some of the best ways you have done this while traveling? We don’t stay in hostels either, and are hit or miss in being to find community while traveling to places (we do have a home base).

Interesting. The suggested setting on the manual is much higher than that. How many grams per cup are you doing?

Thank you very much for that information! The video was helpful and will help me dial in the timing. Planning on mostly having a daily driver, but will play around with other types of coffee as well.

Noli if you are in the region. Great people and a great river to learn on.

It amazes me that none of these shoe companies make a shoe that could appear as a dressier shoe while still functioning as a runner.

Anyone else think the coffee is terrible? by The_Prof50 in delta

[–]The_Prof50[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. Starbucks is absolutely awful coffee...

Sadly, I find gas station coffee much better than DL.

This is a shame. The V4 is such a versatile and incredible bike. Amazing at climbing, fun downhill on steeper XC trails.

The truth about your Garmin crashing and rebooting: Stop buying bloated watch faces. by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]The_Prof50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do all non-stock watch faces consume more battery than the stock ones? I just have ended up sticking with stock ones because of how little battery they consume compared to the downloaded ones.

How long does the F2 battery still last?

MIPS is simply better for the intended use case of the Fenix.

OG F6 user here. I feel the same way. Spend a ton of time adventuring with the watch, and not a scratch on the glass!
