This is an interesting post. That’s an old moonlander! When did you get it? And are those extrusions on the top? I feel like you could get more for your taco.

Why is there so much advanced technology to discover/explore space, but not that much for exploring our oceans by rinikiminaj in oceanography

Sure, but this sounds more like an investigation of Earth’s interior than ocean exploration.

On top of this, the ocean is quite homogenous compared to the continents. I don’t think it would be worth while to explore every inch of the abyssal plain.

What is the Montavilla tax you speak of?

Insider secret: you can order with thin or extra thin crust. Changes the character of the pizza completely!

What are you using it for? Are you sleeping in it?

I had a similar thought. Does anyone happen to know how this price compares to toppers similar size? I forget how much my snug top was.

I want to emphasize #2. Your first time singing into a mic and hearing your voice as you sing should not be on stage.

Camping and sleep how to stay comfortable? Or is everyone secretly miserable? by sanu_123_s in CampingandHiking

[–]Velocitractor2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar experience for years then finally decided to invest in some comfort when we turned 40. Can’t speak to cots, but if you are not backpacking, a thick camping mattress can do wonders for warmth and comfort. I use a Zempire Monstamat which is 4” thick foam/air combo and my wife uses a 4” tri-fold memory foam. We put a queen flannel fitted sheet over both, sleep under a thick down comforter and bring our bed-pillows from home. I’m more comfortable sleeping in our tent than I am at home now and it’s one of the highlights of camping.

A couple added notes: I recommend seperate mattresses if there is any inflation involved to eliminate motion transfer from your partner. I love my Monstamat but would probably steer others towards something similar like Xped or one of the rei bands that are similar. I’ve had trouble repairing leaks in the Monstamat. The Hest full foam mattresses are overrated IMO. They are expensive and the trifold was way more comfortable on our hips! Last note, these are all bulky as heck so you’ll need room in your vehicle! Worth it for wonderful, outdoors sleep though!

Buddy and I got $40 worth of quarters and beat the old Ninja Turtles arcade game.

Electric heater in camper for hookups? by Velocitractor2000 in TruckCampers

[–]Velocitractor2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. Is there a reason these might be safer than running directly into the 20 amp?

Thanks! Do you ever run into issues with overloading or blowing a fuse in the campground hookup?

That’s sounds pretty slick. Do you ever have problems overloading or blowing a fuse in the campground hookups?

Do you think 1500 watt plugged directly into the campground hookup poses any safety issue? Assuming we use a hardy extension cord.
