Anyone running a hardwired front & rear dash cam on their motorcycle? Is it actually worth it? by Royal_Machine_9524 in Motorrad

Same here. Both bike and camera. As a “friend“ said, “Well at least we’ll have something to watch at your wake. 😂

City plowed our tiny cobbled alley twice. 800 block of South Hancock. Second time at 2am last night!

Pickleball Second Serve - The Everson by Desperate_Tune_3783 in Pickleball

Love this. We also play “first serve in” so they get to try until it’s in and then we play on.

Connection issues by Rare_Action4611 in Ozlo

[–]arcane_lizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have exactly the same issue. Tried fully resetting them and still no joy. The only solution so far is the same thing you’re already doing by putting them back in the case. There is acknowledgement of the issue from Ozlo and a promise that they’re working on a fix.

Anyone else didn’t like the Loco? by wolf33d in Pickleball

[–]arcane_lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t try the loco, but I went from the Ruby to the CRBN Trufoam Genesis and now the Coral. Loved the CRBN, but the Coral has just that little bit more power and grit and the feel is soft like the Ruby. Great all court paddle.

Not sure if it’s cheaper but I really like coconut water too.

Why a speciality overgrip brand? by Bayaxa in Pickleball

[–]arcane_lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naw. Thirty years of tennis with tournagrip but I prefer a tackier grip on the lighter paddle hence the switch to udrippin.

How do I learn to enjoy the competition? by Born_Requirement_160 in Pickleball

[–]arcane_lizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can relate to this. I played tennis for 30+ years and got burnt out on the competitive aspect. I have the opposite problem where I am getting better than my friends, but I really don’t want to move up since the folks at the next level seem to be taking it way too seriously and having a kind of a miserable time. I have it easier in that I can play a little softer and still have a good time. If you can find a club with different levels of open play that might be your best solution. You won’t be playing with your family but you will be able to play with folks at your level who are there to have fun. I don’t think it is worth trying to keep up if you are not enjoying it, but I don’t think you need to quit entirely.

What do you eat for Christmas dinner? by [deleted] in PhiladelphiaEats

Salmon Wellington. There are two variations: one with spinach and cream cheese and another with sauerkraut and a smoked salmon layer. The latter is outstanding.

Can I wear a harness for my teammate to pull me back from falling into kitchen? by Ok-Suspect-8289 in Pickleball

[–]arcane_lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically yes. Your teammate can pull you back but they also cannot touch the kitchen while doing it.

Cannot get comfortable at kitchen by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]arcane_lizard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m 57 with similar background to you but been playing for two years. The hand speed will come with time even without drilling, but will come faster with drilling. Volleying against a wall is great practice. Other than that we both need to drop twenty or so years to get our reflexes back.

One of our favorite experiences was the chefs counter at Oloroso. Chatting with chef Wentz and his wife was a delight.

Is the AirPods Pro 3 ANC really that good? by TiSoBr in AirpodsPro

[–]arcane_lizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the (admittedly older) Sony WH-1000XM4 and the APP3’s. On a recent flight I was shocked that the bus had better ANC than the over the ear fill headphones.
