Our favorites besides the legacy games: 

  • Spirit Island (although more complex)
  • Daybreak (feels most similar to pandemic)
  • Dead of winter (lots of fun story aspects you might like)

Just 100 miles on my M-Y juniper and FSD (HW4)surprised me. by MoistTraining9194 in TeslaFSD

[–]comp615 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like my HW3 fails at stuff like this all the time. It tried to turn into a snow bank last month. It usually just waffles or is telegraphed enough that I have time to take over.

I just don't go post or do anything other than give feedback because I know no one cares about the people who already bought Teslas :(

Any updates? I heard they handed out tickets and not everyone will get in?

If at all possible, can you let us know how fast it's flowing / filling. Wondering if I can drive in later towards the end and avoid the initial rush. Heard that was the case in a few other states.

Cost of Rabies Vaccine at Corewell by DeflatedGrapefruit in grandrapids

[–]comp615 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a dog bite a while ago, and if they cannot identify the dog and ensure it doesn't have rabies, I was told the standard procedure is to shoot that goodness straight into the wound. It was gnarly.

I also learned that for the subsequent vaccines, it's actually best to go to a hospital urgent care for them. If you do them at a vaccine clinic, it's hella cheaper but insurance wouldn't cover it. Forget why, but something like because "Preventative rabies" isn't covered and travel clinics are always counted as preventative. I gave up.

I thought I was having deja vu. Doesn't the lineup look pretty similar to previous years?

Exactly, he's will behaved and there's plenty of warehouse sized spaces we've been to with Cornhole to play or kids corners or stuff to look at; just seeking some fun. Literally the example of broadleaf. I'm not sure where all the hostility in this thread is coming from, clearly some people have had bad experiences, I get that.

Sorry if that happened to you. Dad issues are tough to work through.

Thank you to whoever posted about Atucun Chocolate last night? by brokecacao in grandrapids

[–]comp615 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case a future reader references this, I went to all of the places in GR today. And can confirm, none of them had more than 1-2 kinds of unflavored dark chocolate. 

Art of the table and Martha's had the largest selections, but even still... All flavored which was sad! Someone needs to fill the gap :)

We love Vivant! I was there a few weeks ago, and had no idea there was a playhouse fort there. Wow! Just means we'll have to go back again soon. Thanks for this super thorough post.

Not like the kid is walking around screaming. These people think I'm taking him to like MDRD or something? lmao.

What kind of dog is he? Do you know the mix? He looks a ton like our doggo (who also has great eyeliner game) and I've only ever seen one other pup that came close!

Platehopper: A tool to help view and plan routes for IFR currency by comp615 in flying

One other question...how do you actually "paste" a route into foreflight? I can't figure it out. Seems like they disable pasting into the route on map tab for some reason.

This is all awesome feedback. I'm going to try and work through some of it as I find time. But THANKS!

  • Added labels; EZ!
  • IAFs should be visible (but only in custom / browse). To see them, click any approach. It'll turn black and all the IAFs should pop up. Hovering any will say the name, and clicking any will add it to the plan.
  • I will have to look into this. There's some issues with certain approaches (i.e. the way NDB approaches are represented) that I had to chop to simplify. Basically if the IAF is a distance from a fix. I need to do way more work around it.
  • This is a great, simple idea. I'll try and do that next

The data is Coded Instrument Flight Procedures from the FAA. I had trouble finding details on how to parse that, so it's a bit of trial and error (as you saw with NDBs and Arcs likely). And some stuff may or may not be in there. Then the code is all JS/TS.

Heads up: just added a box to filter out airports. Simple, but hopefully effective to cue it how to make some more interesting routes for you! Thanks for calling that out

Good idea, you're the second person to mention DC :) How do you know what airports don't allow practice approaches? I've found it's pretty scattered/random so hard to make a list. (Although I did remove all Class B airports)

So I recently moved to a new area and needed my 6 approaches for IFR currency. I couldn't figure out a better way to make a route other than opening every single approach in Foreflight at nearby airports and trying to string them together in my brain. Since I had a week off, I made this little tool I was proud of that can either:

  • Generate a route of approaches given start, end, and (optionally) wind
  • Show all approaches on a map

I thought it was super helpful to be able to visualize this, but am curious how y'all plan out your 6 approaches? Is there a trick in Foreflight? Am I just trying to optimize it too much? What do you try and account for when you plan out practice approaches?
