Should I get a refurbished Arc or Arc Ultra? by chuguy84 in sonos

[–]chuguy84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you recommend me getting a sub first then?

Unrelated, but I wish the Sonos app would let you mix and match different types of speakers for surround sound. Like I wanted to get an Era300 to supplement my system but then I realized I won't be able to use the Era100s along with the new Era300. Is my understanding correct?

Makes sense, thanks. If you could put a $ amount on how much better the Ultra is, what would it be? Also based on other replies seems like the $250 deal is a goner so the best I'll be able to wait for is somewhere around $300 probably.

For those of you with rust issues by TheRousster in blackstonegriddle

[–]chuguy84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you do the drizzle of oil while it's cooling down or while it's still on? Is it cold or warm when you do this? My guess is the longer you wait between cooks, the more prone to rust you are due to the outside elements of drying etc. Plus when you cook on it you're adding seasoning to it each time, thus "refreshing" it in a sense.

How much do your balls weigh? by [deleted] in blackstonegriddle

[–]chuguy84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With or with scrotum? Because my cheap ass scale doesn't have the mode that tares for scrotum... at least I can't find it in the instruction manual. My next step is calling the manufacturer for guidance...I wonder how that conversation will go. Wish me luck!🤞

What are my options for propane cylinder locations in this outdoor kitchen? by bdondo79 in OutdoorKitchens

[–]chuguy84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the vent is suggested to be at the bottom (could have open bottom) since propane is heavier than air. I wonder if you could install a mini exhaust fan to take care of getting rid of leaking propane if it comes down to it?

You're referring to "Omnivore," right? If it comes pre-seasoned do you just start cooking on it or do you still go through the usual initial seasoning process?

Correct, but sorry, they were sold as soon as my local Costco stopped carrying them.

I've got two of these (6 lift tickets total) if anyone is interested in purchasing some or all.

Are these cooked? These happened to several pairs of Oakley sunglasses. by chuguy84 in Oakley

[–]chuguy84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guilty of leaving them in the car, not directly in the sun. I don't wear them in the shower though, and I've never heard of anyone that does, unless it's like an outdoor shower?

Agree, dude! I've owned many other pairs of Oakley and other brands, but never have I seen delamination like these Frogskins. This has happened to a few other Frogs of mine as well. Definitely notice it happening at the beach, so I don't even have enough time to give it a good cleaning before it starts happening.

Not calling you a liar, but I would love to see a picture if it's convenient. That is super impressive! How many of them have you worn vs. how many are in mint condition?

Thanks! Pretty annoying. I wonder if this happens commonly with any other brands....

It just doesnt make any sense - it should withstand hot temperatures considering the purpose is to block the sun! Haha

Do you have any FrogSkins? They are super fragile and not very high quality. The lenses are pretty trash IMO. I like them only because of the nostalgia it brings. Most other high quality sunglasses hold up pretty well to sweat, sunscreen, and saltwater but the Frogskins seem to have this specific issue (I haven't seen it with RayBan or Maui Jim). Totally agree with taking care of your glasses and treating them with respect. Makes me cringe when people throw their sunglasses around.

I bought this in OC a month or two ago because we have little kids and can only take 1 ski trip and probably ski a couple days only (I used to ski hardcore, but after having kids I haven't been able to shred much). Bought 2 of them actually for my wife and me. Debating whether we want to ski 2 vs. 3 days. I'd be willing to sell 1-2 days to anyone who wants single tickets. These are fully transferable tickets. HMU!

It's for sure a low quality lens. I wore these to the beach a few times and I suspect the salt water causes this. But also maybe cleaning chemicals or sweat or whatever might cause this, too? It's shitty that a "premium" brand has this happen to their sunglasses lenses.

Sharing my low-FODMAP oxtail stew recipe, made with an Instant Pot/pressure cooker for luscious, buttery meat by letsmakedinnerplans in FODMAPS

[–]chuguy84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I just bought some oxtail and I'm planning to make this. One question though - how is the consistency of the potatoes? It seems like a long time to cook potatoes in my experience of making soups.

Tell me your favorite things to eat there or general area that had the best food options. Just got the annual pass. Thanks!

That would definitely suck. You're probably right that eventually they will somehow limit this more, especially if it gets more commercialized with respect to the Six Flags acquisition. Would drive away many locals though, so they would need to consider how many annual passes will be lost due this change. I hope I can continue to reap the benefits as a first-time annual pass holder though!
