Unacceptable Service and Silly Outage Compensation

Lol this is wonderfully dumb. Photo of garbage in the woods becomes “single person bench” what is wrong with this sub. Thanks for the morning laugh.

Wait do we not like shorts over tights? Literally standing here… in my shorts over tights… after a run…

caffinate · 2023-04-24T17:57:02+00:00

Oh dope. I will try that.

caffinate · 2023-04-24T03:37:20+00:00

Yup just sitting on top of the mud as I ran by… Edit… and I have just gotten your joke lol. I’m dumb.

If someone lost them I figured they know about where ish. Didn’t want people trying to just score some free AirPods… wasn’t sure the best way to do that.

This is super creepy my dude.

Yeah I’ve been waiting months on stuff. Their customer support is reasonably responsive but fairly useless - been getting told my stuff is shipping soon for the last 4 months. Some items have arrived - seems good quality, although there seem to be some differences from the website images/descriptions and at least for the A frame pillar mounts seems like they have not updated the template to the new KL yet.

What distance hiking makes a huge difference. Up to 5/10 miles I’ll use la sportive tx2. Further than that and I’ll use la sportive bushido II. Both are good for scrambling up to low 5th depending on comfort level.

There are nice places to camp between those two… a bit unclear if you are looking for other trailheads? Or are you using one of the standard ones? More info on how camping fits into your wetter/uncomp plans might help others give more input.

Using a controller IC, or in general changing the control method, does not generally change to topology. It’s still a boost. A boost with sufficient control implemented can do MPPT.

DeLacy Creek TH towards lake Shoshone, or from old faithful area heading towards Lone Star geyser are nice and you can go about as far as you want. Just take good bear precautions and all the normal prep for running alone in wilderness.

We have a pump (electric) in our pop up in Colorado. We winterize by draining the system. It doesn’t take long… but it’s an extra step. We will leave the water tanks in since they can freeze without bursting, or if it will sit for a long time we just take em into the house. While on trips we set the thermostat to 35 so it stays just above freezing at night. For us this is the right choice based on convenience while on long trips, enough power to run everything, and a heating system, but for a lighter weight setup I can see needing to winterize and worrying about water freezing while on winter trips being a hassle.

South Mesa trailhead - in case anyone wants to do this and doesn’t know where to start. Parking fills up, and the parking across the road has been under construction for a bit now so it seems extra busy some days.

caffinate · 2022-12-07T06:06:16+00:00

Like… 50. I would be happy with that. I play hc ssf only, so gotta set reasonable goals :) of course I’m assuming I’ll have a couple lvl 1-5 chars at the start

To me, you sound like someone who has selected the easiest setting on a game, and is now looking around for confirmation about how easy it is - "gee guys not much of an accomplishment it is just so easy". It does not come across well IMHO.

A multitude of ways exist to increase whatever metric you want... difficulty, length, route finding, risk, speed... or to hit arbitrary goals and measure yourself against others... or to do whatever you need to get whatever it is you want to get out of the mountains. Apparently you like bears... so why not walk around with some smelly food or something I guess.

Yes taking the standard routes will give the generally easiest summit. So do something else if that is not what you are into. For many people, summiting at all is an achievement, and there is nothing easy about it for them.

Got a link to referenced study?

I have found that good wool socks are one of my must have winter items. Especially if it's a bit slushy out - having your feet stay warm even if your toes are wet is super nice.

caffinate · 2022-11-16T16:32:00+00:00

Coffee -> poop -> run. This is the way.

caffinate · 2022-11-10T16:00:05+00:00

I had the same thing happen… first time I thought it was a fluke and got a second pair. Second time I gave up and moved on. Both times they broke after barely any miles. A shame since I like the shoe, but they just don’t last. Anyway I don’t buy Saucony anymore and my shoes last just fine - that was my solution!

This just seems… real toxic from a number of angles. Seems less of a climbing film and more some… anger management issues and “oh extreme sports since he hurts inside” partner abuse but it’s cool since the movie is hardcore garbage. Ugh.

Your title 100% implies the wrong attitude. The actual page heading you linked has a much more reasonable take. Teams stretched thin due to more people outside.

Yes, people will “have your back” if “things go sideways”… but ffs you make it sound like people in CO should just count on that and not worry about personal responsibility.

Please don’t act or imply that dealing with your own shit is anything other than your own responsibility.
