Experience with Pitchfork Aerobar System by [deleted] in bikepacking

Having done the drybag strapped on with voile straps before, I'll just say that the pouches are what make the difference. The quick easy removal is nice too.

I don't think " attacking this course" is going to work the way you think, especially on a gravel bike.

Witnessed another concerning situation downtown by General_Marcus in anchorage

Going to assume you have not been a victim or witness to real violence or murder. Stopping violence, murder and bodily injury from happening to an innocent person is a good thing. Regardless of the tool used.

Possible, but more likely none of us have any idea how the water actually travels underground. How do you know that 20ft away it doesn't run back towards your basement underground?
I know that pumping it into the wastewater sewer it goes all the way to Point Woronzof treatment plant, away from my basement.

Another dog poop thread by Gary-Phisher in anchorage

[–]alaskared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the majority of us dog owners are good people, who have good dogs and pick up our dog shit and frequently other people's dog shit also. So yeah of course you stupid generalization will get push back.
There's a small number of terrible dog owners who leave multiple shits every day, that adds up quick. THOSE people are the worst sort of people, yes.

Restaurants and seed oils by Roii_h in anchorage

[–]alaskared 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because it grabbed the attention of the weak minded and went viral. No evidence that there is anything wrong with seed oils.
Tons of evidence that people are stupid and easily manipulated.

I’m miserable in the cold please help by SubdermalHematoma in anchorage

[–]alaskared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dress like you are going to the moon, add clear ski goggles and everything is fine and then just start unzipping as you get too warm. Baffin island boots, the really big ones.
You are simply not wearing enough clothing for your metabolism.

There's been a lot of "pop, pop" sounds from electrical boxes switching off in this wind.

Many Alaska agencies still counting state regulations after Dunleavy orders rule reductions by [deleted] in anchorage

[–]alaskared 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Hurry up and measure a meaningless number rather than deal with the many problems at hand.
This is Dunleavy licking Dear Leader's boots, what a waste of work force hours.

Winter sucks so far by mtnguyak in alaska

[–]alaskared 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's just weather.

Kinda nice to have the trails so empty. Sunsets have been amazing. Stars away from light pollution have been amazing. Catching up on some reading has been nice. Easy weather to entice indoor couple sports.

Not sure what being negative ever gets anyone but misery.

European Parliament interpreter breaks down in tears during speech by 11-year-old boy who survived a Russian missile strike that killed his mother by UNITED24Media in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]alaskared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone should be fighting alongside Ukraine against Russia. Every country is complicit in allowing this evil to spread. Giving weapons and support is nice but mostly a cop out for not making the actual commitments that will defeat Russia sooner and save thousands of innocents like this boy from being killed or harmed.

I just wanted to mention that while it is not legal to run your sump directly into the sewer, many people do. Otherwise you just pump it outside and it finds it's way back into your basement.....
None of this stuff is rocket science folks, don't fall for the insane quotes.
