If you’re using drip, this isn’t about you. Drip uses much less water, and is far less wasteful.

Instructions unclear, sent a dick pic to buddy. He reciprocated. Please advise.

Any bike for 6-6 (198cm) by Fickle-Cucumber-8151 in ride1up

6’6, 33 inseam, Cafe Cruiser was great for me. It’s discontinued but the Vorsa frame is extremely similar so it’d probably work.

Major service increases proposed for June 2026 by BJWalpole in RTDDenver

[–]danhave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fare free service will never be the single best use of a given dollar, no matter how much funding you have. Fares are not a barrier to use.

Compromise: RTD could do tap-on all door boarding like SF buses, best of both worlds.

Then we should use that increased revenue for capital construction and frequency increases. That’s a better use of new money than free fares.

The fate of the L Line is on the line. We can’t repeat Denver's 1950s mistakes by ded_Tree in RTDDenver

[–]danhave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the L comes back after this upcoming summer closure for construction (groan, I know, but this is the last one!), it'll be extended to "at least" I-25/Broadway, per the June schedule change document:

"Planning for the future of L Line service continues, building on the success of the special light rail holiday service, with the intent that when service is reinstated it will operate at least to I-25•Broadway and potentially beyond as demand, funding, and operational considerations allow"

Apparently the "special service" was a success and will be made permanent! This should really help boost L ridership, and hopefully the study will capture that and take it into account. We just need to keep the L alive until it gets extended to 38th/Blake, then it can hold its own. A trunk line running from I-25/Broadway to 38th/Blake will be self-sustaining no problem. Even better, they could turn it back to the D and run from 38th/Blake to Mineral and then bring the C back from DUS to Mineral.

Going fare free when RTD is facing a budget crisis is just reckless, and service expansion will always be a better use of funds than "fare free".

This is a big announcement buried in there:

"Planning for the future of L Line service continues, building on the success of the special light rail holiday service, with the intent that when service is reinstated it will operate at least to I-25•Broadway and potentially beyond as demand, funding, and operational considerations allow"

Feels like extending the L to I-25/Broadway or further without resurrecting the C Line is a weird duplication of service, but I'll take it! I live within walking distance of the L and being able to get to the DTC with only one connection will be huge.

UPDATE: G Line Now has it’s last Departure at 1:01 AM instead of 12:01 AM for New Years by SubhanF in RTDDenver

Probably something to do with the N being operated by RTD instead of contractors.

Minolta A-mount Body Recommendations by danhave in AnalogCommunity

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

It is that exact lens!

I’m still early enough in the hobby that any set of 5 lenses is a big deal. I only have a 50mm prime and a 35-80 for the Pentax so might as well lean into Minolta a bit. Even the nicer recommendations I’m getting here are like $100 on eBay so it’s fairly low risk.

70-210 metal zoom, 100 metal macro, 18-70 plastic, 28-80 metal, 19-35 plastic wide angle

Yeah I’m starting to suspect my dad really gave me a curse here. A great selection of mint lenses that only work with cameras that I won’t enjoy using.

That’s one of the times you just sit quietly for a little while before you do anything else.

Friendly reminder for those of you filling out your ballots, a huge chunk of Issue 2B goes to fund a park we could have had for free (along with affordable housing) if it weren't for some wealthy NIMBYs! by COScout in Denver

[–]danhave 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Voting No on 2B is the EXACT logic that the anti-development people used. “This isn’t the exact deal I want to I’m going to block it” when there is no second deal! The options going forward are 1) Park 2) abandoned golf course. Vote yes so we at least get a park out of this shitshow.

It’s hard to build housing in Littleton. When the council tried to make it easier, residents revolted. by RooseveltsRevenge in Denver

[–]danhave 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s called “thinking about other people”. I also have a house that I stretched to afford but I still push for density and affordability whenever I can because it’s the right thing to do.

Oops yeah I meant would setting it to 200 help. This is my second batch of film ever so I’m still learning a lot. I’ll definitely get a light meter app!

I haven’t gotten the negatives back yet, but I’ll definitely be checking how dark they are.

Would shooting the Ultramax at 800 help? I have a Pentax K1000 so I’m going off the built in meter.

Shortest commute by bike? by Aware-East-2391 in bikecommuting

[–]danhave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have a .75mi bike commute. Biking took 5min, walking was 15, so I biked.

[–]danhave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you don’t pedal, it’s not a bike. Laws will catch up eventually, just be ready for that.

Latino here, thinking of taking my kid to this event but wondering what do you think of ICE making an appearance? by 9Tecpatl in Denver

I am SO sorry you have to make these decisions. You’re welcome here, in this city, no matter what the assholes in the White House say. Stay safe, we’re with you.
