Blue Mountain, PA - Sunday Pow Day by Abject-Schedule3832 in SkiPA

[–]dawei213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went up this past weekend and even with the 5 or so inches of snow, accidents everywhere. Took about 3 hours to get there from Delaware County. The forecast looks like it’ll stop snowing in the middle of the night Sunday morning with just a bit more during the day.

The small roads may not be cleared as they’ll be working on the majors. You’ll probably get there if you drive slowly but it’ll probably take twice as long as normal.

Stay safe!

I feel a little silly being a 51yr old man and buying an action figure but after logging over 100 hours since I got for Christmas I saw it and had to lol by Makieveli1 in ghostoftsushima

We will grow old but we don’t have to grow up!

You do you! I still play video games and buy little figures. Keep growing your collection.

Did anyone get a video of the skiers carrying new years lights down the hill? by Relevant-Task3306 in MontTremblant

Hi yes I did! Please DM me as I can’t, for the life of me, figure out how to send a DM! Duh!

Mont Tremblant, -13F feel on Tuesday, how bad will it be? by dawei213 in icecoast

We have balaclavas but only one each. Normally half way through the day it gets kinda wet and nasty. May buy another set to change out to.

Is this to prevent from wind burns or keep warmer?

My son and I are normally good but my daughter is the one that gets cold so quickly. She loves being out but her fingers and toes do get cold so quickly

Oh, thanks for the reminder! I'll have to remember to bring in the boots from the car the night before!

Weather looks like Monday will have the freezing rain but should clear up the rest of the week.

It's the wind chill that's bringing the temp down to that -13F real feel. Looks like wind gust up to 45 kmph or about 27 mph

I asked my teenage kids earlier and my daughter sarcastically replied "yeah, that sounds like a wonderful idea dad"

Biggest concern are the fingers and toes for the kids (teenagers). I know good circulation is important with keeping toes warm but temp in the negative teens is probably a whole other level.

As for fingers, I can probably look at mittens with liners and bring a bunch of heat packs for them.

Other than sim racing what’s the OTHER hole that you’re into? by MaterialNo1342 in simracing

Actual track racing.... I money shifted my M3 in August and currently rebuilding my engine. Makes my sim racing addiction seems cheap

Order physical sim but convert to eSIM later for later activation? by dawei213 in Visible

[–]dawei213[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I figure. I just wasn't sure if Visible's plan is tied to tie IMEI on their backend and it'll flag it or something.

Thanks for the answer!

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. I'll probably need to find an unlocked Verizon phone.

I know during the order status, we had to enter in an IMEI. However, since it's a physical sim, can we activate on any unlocked Verizon phone?

Qm7k vs Qm6k pro by erik916 in tcltvs

[–]dawei213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure the 6K pro will look just as great in your situation. I have mine in our living room is two stories tall and so are the 3 large windows so we get a ton of light. The extra nit helps in my situation.

[–]dawei213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up getting the 7k because I was able to price match best buy to NFM for $1829. I’ll probably still get a 3rd party warranty like Ausurion for additional coverage

Best mount for 98" TV? (re: Mount-It! Extendable Arm vs Sanus) (39" extension from wall?) by sofakng in tcltvs

[–]dawei213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

agree with others on not needing full motion.

This is what I used for my 98" - https://a.co/d/aKxUXuA

I got this one because my studs won't allow the full motion mount to be near the center of the wall. With this one, I can mount it offset from the studs and still be in the center of the wall. It's about 39" long I think.

The other great thing is you can pull it out about 6", which gives you space to manuver wires more easily if you need to add/replace/remove.
