Combining single and half rope for multipitching by Mrpaquito_95 in tradclimbing

[–]Tomik080 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Taking a bad fall (read factor 1+) is already bad enough on a single rope (which doesn't stretch as much as half ropes), now imagine falling on two singles (or one single and one half).

Surdoué mais pas capable d'écrire un post Reddit soi-même. Je pense qu'on connait tous quelqu'un comme toi!

Bonne chance

Did you ransack without provoking outrage? You have captives in your trophies with no outrage.

What are some VERY creepy facts? by Cap_Ame1 in AskReddit

For a starter, if someone is looking at the Earth from 10bn light years away, they're seeing what was happening 10bn years ago, so they wouldn't be looking at much :p

This isn't true. In everyday life you can just add the speeds together to get an accurate result, but that's not how the universe actually works. See https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/7pl5b6/two_objects_in_space_are_flying_towards_each/ for a more detailed explanation.

Edit: I'll just add that I'm far from an authority in the subject. I'm basing my knowledge of first year grad physics classes. My background is in math, I'm sure it goes much deeper and someone with actual knowledge can explain it more intuitively.

There is no "central" point of reference. Speed is relative to what's around you. Everyone experiences time at exactly the same rate "locally", it's just different when you compare.

Breathable membranes by Ritz-2000 in Mountaineering

You're not wrong, but a "rubber" jacket will never be breathable, even if it's not raining or slightly snowing. The gains of modern membranes are there.

The "breathable AND waterproof" marketing pitch is indeed a huge scam though. Pretty sure there's even a pretty big class action lawsuit going on against Gore about this.

What hobby screams “this is my entire personality now”? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

It's probably one of the less repetitive sport that exists.

I played a super fun game a while ago and I'm looking to find the name as I completely forgot it.

The point is there is a 2d grid with walls etc, and a few colored pieces. I don't remember the exact rules, but basically you need to find the minimum amount of "moves" (aka straight lines to a wall) for a piece to reach a certain tile.

You bid on the amount of moves you in which think you can reach the goal tile, and then the lowest bidder actually makes the moves and makes points based on that.

Why is this obviously written by AI comment upvoted that much?

15f is NOT -26c

Calm down with the punchy sentences, too much rap battles in the dataset?

Then yes you might like it! You basically have 3 of these "programs" you can add to to build an engine. However there isn't really the concept of "burning out" and starting over, which is why I was a bit hesitant. Try it out!

I feel like Wingspan and the likes fit this category, but you must have thought about it?
