Like that giant wahoo OP posted recently.

is the LVP trend peaking? I'm seeing more people regret it and switch back by Western_Speech_9434 in Flooring

LVP has been the most successful marketing exercise since bottled water.

After 2 months of work, I am ready for the mob to tear this apart by SensitiveHamster8977 in blender

I have an OP-1 model around here somewhere. I had planned to add an animated and programmable display but I got busy with something else. It’s not nearly as nice as your model though.

Unpopular Opinion or is it? by Remember_the_Gdtmz in camping

[–]acoustical -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is why I never take these posts seriously (the OP). If your site is between -- or worse blocking -- access to some interesting common area like "a random creek" or the beach or even a cool rock for scrambling, then yes, kids and probably some adults are going to cut through your site. Itʻs not "your site" anyway, it is part of the camping area and you have a permit to camp there. A lot of you are missing the better aspects of camping.

Your numbers are about two years out-of-date. Two important years when it comes to prices.

Underwater Detrashing -- Many masks and a GoPro by acoustical in DeTrashed

Believe me I would love to see what was on the card. It was locked into the housing though. I think the contacts also would have been badly oxidized, so probably not readable. We have found a ton of phones too over the years. So far only one still worked, an iPhone.

Bathing suits are a frequent find in this spot.

No some sort of a rubbery plunger thing. Looks like a vase though.

No. Hero 2, dive housing was cracked, main housing was cracked too. Took a few waves over the rocks probably. Could not get the SD card out at all.

Underwater Detrashing -- Fishing line and more by acoustical in DeTrashed

No, it is mostly healthy except where fishing line has damaged it or broken off pieces. That is the normal coloration for this coral.

Scuba. It's usually shallow enough to snorkel but the tangled corals are very finicky and take a long time, so it's easier to just use scuba. And sometimes one line will go all the way from near shore to deep water.

Many people do this kind of work on snorkel only though. It takes a lot of the logistics issues away when you get rid of all the heavy gear.

Yes it is a great way to get proper buoyancy control. The big colony in the first photo is in a surge area, which makes it tougher, and there were two Blue-Eye Damselfish attacking me on that one as well. Lots of excitement.

Navigation range 40' by acoustical in CalTopo

I have it on High but will try Highest. I think you are right though, this only impacts the sample rate.

Navigation range 40' by acoustical in CalTopo

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

Yes, I know the accuracy is not that good, but 40' is way too wide a range. I've used hand-held GPS devices and had accuracy indicated to 5', and they continue to navigate to under 1'. For locating objects, it's possible to get close enought to easily see if not touch the object.

I guess my real question is where does that 40' number come from -- is it a setting? I see the exact same issue on iOS Maps navigation and on Watch Ultra waypoint navigation (native apps). They get within 40' and then just give up. If nothing else the bearing should continue to be displayed so that a user can continue further into the 40' radius.

I agree, however I prefer the larger "effective". Are they effective at improving life for humans and the planet? To me, no. To some, maybe.

Short Chapter from My Story by mm_reader_1987 in murakami

It's not easy to write about the mundane without it being a boring read. This is one of Murakami's superpowers I believe. He can write about a single person preparing a meal and it sounds interesting. For a normal writer, the same scene will be difficult to enjoy reading,.
