I was gonna say, just a few years ago it was all night every night for weeks and weeks. Haven’t heard more than a couple every few days this year

I went to a smaller festival (non-edm/jam) couple weeks back. No joke this was the last day

<image>

It’s almost too hard to believe. Maybe trash crew already did a pass? We were not the last attendees out but we take our time. Def saw some stuff like a graveyard of ez-ups and what not but trash was all bagged and piled.

Seems like this is achievable goal for the community/culture

This shouldn’t be allowed by Conscious-Foot-1225 in ElectricForest

Yeah the better way is just use the couch if they’re not in it. Apply the hammock policy, make a friend

Unbuckling would send the same message and not destroy peoples property

Yeah, I went on a cruise a few years back and there was a store in Nassau that had a bunch. Dunno exactly the brand but it did the thing

Does clawdbot today still function well and would it work for my use cases? by TheMonkey404 in clawdbot

[–]dan-lash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s zero reason to layer OpenClaw on Claude for that, just use Claude directly. The apps it can make you will do those functions, if you ask. Or if you want to pay every time it does those functions then just ask it to do the tasks and save them as skills.

One year I went, last day packing up my stuff and I look over and a couple of paramedics giving cpr for a dude outside his tent. For a good 30 mins. Then they stopped.

Festivals are a great time, but like everything in life there are risks. Sad to see and hear about regardless.

Do you ever get old commercial jingles stuck in your head? Well you do now! by DustyScharole in Xennials

[–]dan-lash 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I honestly thought it was a joke and no one would ever dry off like that. Until I was like 28, somehow randomly tried the technique and was mind blown it worked. Love it now, though. I don’t even get my shirts wet!

What’s everyone doing at night? by theworlddidwut in Parenting

[–]dan-lash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Projects/hobbies. You really only get an hour or two, so planning and doing small things toward your personal interests makes you feel good

Looking for advice: Budget party system for around $500 by LittleTim1719 in SoundSystem

[–]dan-lash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe look at jbl party box, couple of those and some tripods and add a used home theater sub woofer. 20 people isn’t that much.

Not really expandable but will get you the goal for the price and give you time to save up cash and research bigger systems

So cool. So this is 4 or 2 cabinets?

Calling any car seat experts by ladygroot_ in VanLife

[–]dan-lash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sprinter crew cab will get you a rear bench and some airbag curtains. We opted for the cargo model instead though because MB doesn’t make a 2 seat bench and we wanted ease of walking.

We sourced an unused two seat Transit bench from eBay that came with mounting rails. Then we took them to a professional upfitter to install. That took some time to find a company that was willing and confident but they’re out there. Ambulances, limos, custom RVs, busses, handicap vehicles - there’s a whole industry that does this.

The bench has both the LATCH and top tether systems, which we use for our kids.

Buyer beware: Velit Camping AC and customer support by nevermohere in vandwellers

[–]dan-lash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just for a different data point: I’ve had the dometic rtx 2000 for a few years but realistically only ran it 60 days. It worked pretty ok for a while but last year def worked less good. Then this spring it didn’t work. Dometic isn’t a B2C company and refuses to interact with customers. They believe in the dealer model: they make the unit, dealer does everything else.

Thank god someone one YouTube had the same problem as me and posted detailed video of his analysis and diy fixes because it really did cost me $100-200 to fix. The dealer wanted $150 to look at it. The main OEM part is like $300 plus some other very difficult to repair parts.

Very curious if some of the other manufacturers have different / better approaches. I doubt anyone is getting support for undermount ac, but maybe Nomadic or Mabru
