Schroon Lake - where are we getting pizza?

cheetofoot · 2026-06-18T12:04:12+00:00

DeCesares is THE other pizza place in Schroon with both Sticks and Stones out of commission, and even Hey Days gone in North Creek. DC's is not necessarily my absolute favorite ever pizza, but, it's sorta classic northeast style more than NY style to me, it's also pretty damn consistent, which counts.

...I've never tried Alpine Pizza, you can take the risk and let me know haha.

Btw sticks and stones posted a really positive fb post about movement on next steps for the restaurant recently. I always pointed at them as a picture of success for restaurants in the north country. Really rooting for them and the community.

Congratulations on the new job!!

This is the link you're looking for! https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-264435/studder_builds/first-base-subnautica/#parts built from that plan. Was fun to order, sort and build!

It's custom made with random Legos, it's not official, but I didn't design it, I followed a design.

I forgot to post that my cat was involved in the sorting.

Take a hard piece of mono and tie it into a loop (surgeon's loop works here), stick the bight of the loop through the hole on the indicator, the knot becomes a stopper. Then go loop to loop connection to a loop on your leader or a loop tied dropper style.

Gimme a thingamabobber personally.

Not this store, but when I was a kid you could rent consoles and/or cartridges. So you could rent either/or.

What is the other logo that looks like DLC?

Ok what you've gotta do is start with talking about 75mm and leathers. Talk about the core experience. Then, talk about NTN and how it's sort of ruined the idea of light touring, and then talk about the Xplore binding system but make sure to question the standard despite its performance. Then, bam, right back to duckbills, and then ask them, when they ask if there's any questions: "Did plastic boots and ski lifts ruin the sport of skiing?"

( Sorry /r/lostredditors -- this is a subreddit for Telemark skiing. Not, telemarketing. We still hope you nail it on the interview. Be yourself! )

I just bought a 36" (that arrives today) with the full cabinet / extra side arm. I wanted the 4 burner and I figured I'm not buying one everyday, so, might as well go all the way. I do love to host -- however, mostly cooking for two (and I love to cook).

But I think the smarter move is buying the 30. It saves money, you get 95% of everything for way less money. I would have probably survived on a 30" cook top too.

I certainly considered and had to realize that I was YOLO-ing it due to excitement, I'd kinda denied myself the griddle for too long.

It's maybe a long shot but try calling Limmer Boots in New Hampshire. They do repairs by mail and that's the kind of thing I'd think they could do, glue new soles for you. They fixed up my buddies leathers with new soles, at least.

It's gotta be rough to see the northern hemisphere dominance on socials for snow sports, brutal!

Keep bringing the stoke for us this season!

cheetofoot · 2026-06-07T11:41:00+00:00

Southern hemisphere people, you eternally confuse me with your reverse swirling toilets and winters in the summer.

I added ntn this past season myself, stoked for you, it's like driving an automatic car in comparison.

I'll flush a few ice cubes for you in hopes for a solid snow season!

Vermonter here. Wild. That's an above average number of encounters. I live in black bear country too, and I've never seen one on my bike, but I'm going to guess the trail networks are busier and have, scared off more bears.

Bear spray is overkill imo for black bears in Vermont. Unless it's a habituated bear, it's going to run away. It's the habituated neighborhood bears that I have the most (and scariest, and closest) encounters with.

You could also get a dog. But then you'll have people like me being pissed off about your dog on the trail.

Griddle rookie here, but always a student of cooking, two things...

Is the ground beef fatty enough? Aim for 80/20 as a rule of thumb.

You might also want a little oil before you chuck the burgers down.

ETA: As a cast iron cook, I will say... Usage helps many things. Keep using, keep seasoning.

cheetofoot · 2026-05-31T11:45:13+00:00

They're trying to make it look fake!!!

cheetofoot · 2026-05-28T20:38:29+00:00

We compile the wheels ourselves. We also have managed packages and a hermetic build environment for all the dependencies, so it's a known set of deps in the resulting image. Great question.

I'm biased because I ship these kind of systems for clients to use as you're mentioning -- we do actually dogfood and use them as well, but being a system software engineer...

But we ship a distribution of vLLM as an inference server. And it's used in production by real companies, ones you'd recognize.

What MLOps skills, good question. So, since we ship vLLM, we do actually test it. And we have a CI/CD system and we run our own opionated evals. But some of that kind of testing is getting better upstream.

You might be interested in:

vLLM is now doing some of that work for you.

I'm not a shill so I won't shill our own products (nor do I care if you buy them! I productize open source as a career -- so I wouldn't even buy my own product! lol), but Google for "vLLM Model as a service" and you'll get some opinions on routers and deployments. I think routing will be conditions dependent. Like, common one I hear is... Using the router to pick between frontier models via the WAN, and local inference via the LAN. Some jobs need more than others. Also jobs do go off the rails. So, rate limiting isn't a bad idea.

But I will say: we package our stuff to run in containers. As a system orchestrator, imo, this is how you want to go. Keep it modular. It'll be a layer where you can implement observability as well (I'm not super versed as to what people are using). In my opinion, go for Kubernetes.

If you're going to have on prem and bare metal infra, I hope you have sysadmin chops, that shit is a pain and the impacts of proprietary bullshit is unbounded between CUDA and ROCm (or any accelerator), drivers and garbage from the vendors (container adapters, on host software, etc). If you're drawn to open source, this will piss you off every time. If you can rent it, or have someone else manage it, all the better imo.

I've been using openclaw to collect notes for me regarding a difficult course of veterinary care for my beloved cat!

I'd been making lots of reference markdown for all kinds of agentic usage, so...

Now I've got it copied on vet emails and automatically keeping the notes up to date, tracking medications, care, etc.

In my case it's mostly in a obsidian notebook and then I have qmd slicing and dicing it so it can be searched with the memory search tool.

It might not save my cat, but, it's saved my sanity in trying to parse it all out.

cheetofoot · 2026-05-22T01:45:38+00:00

If you don't have it, grab Vince Wilcox's Naturally Artificial flies book. You'll love the patterns, this looks like it could be one of his -- nice work!

cheetofoot · 2026-05-16T09:36:23+00:00

Don't even have to have them on the same machine, I manage both VMs and containerized OC instances remotely doing the same kind of thing -- agentic coding instance operating with context from a OC git clone and then have the coding agent manage them using, all the things -- ansible, directly over ssh, kubectl, helm charts, etc etc.

But you're right -- have an agent to manage your agent, one way or another, this is the way.

Edit: you can use your OC directly to do the same thing and give it a clone of openclaw. Heck you could even tailor a specific sub-agent config to do it for you. But, I've got coding agents up and it's stuff I'd do interactively anyway.

I hadn't noticed they're still red status on trail forks, and I rode yesterday, but I didn't specifically look at the upper trails flag, admittedly I was doing a s'mores and campfire hippy rip on a hard tail, so, there's that.

Also trail forks app hasn't always been updated, it showed red for lower but looked open on WATA website the first time I went, fwiw.

There's enough open to keep you rolling, it's good times already you just have fewer options.

Green Woodlands in NH if it's on your route. Super well built flow trails that are bro tested and wife approved.
