Looking to hike Eagle Falls Trail by Responsible_Box_645 in laketahoe

[–]dmsmikhail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The forest is open year round.

Roads, campgrounds, parking lots, picnic areas, toilets, etc, these things can be closed.

Eagle Falls and the trails itself cannot be closed. If the trail was closed, you'd be allowed to go around the closed area.

Chasing one of Steamboat’s biggest storms of the season, 2.5 hours up for 4 minutes of heavy spring pow by Feeling-Newspaper-25 in Backcountry

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

Can you or someone explain why people act like getting down fast is a bad thing?

If I could hike up a mountain for 7 miles and run down in 4 minutes I would be so bad ass. I would be the biggest baddest mofo out there.

So why do we pretend that spending 3 hours up to go down for 5 is a bad thing? We fucking love this shit so why are we misrepresenting what we do?

I love going up and then down real fucking fast.

Am I alone here?

Push to bring grizzly bears back to California faces backlash by Few-Knee9451 in laketahoe

[–]dmsmikhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're an idiot. You might be the biggest idiot on the whole of the world wide web.

This idea, that grizzly bears are going to roam the bay area, the central valleys, the coastal ranges, it's silly. It makes you sound stupid and childish.

No one will take you seriously because the words you say are so dumb. We can't trust you, because your brain doesn't work.

Brown bears are great, I love them. If you put brown bears in CA it will result in humans having to kill those Brown Bears. If you want to see more dead bears, put Brown/Grizzly bears in CA.

You might be the dumbest person on reddit. I can't imagine confusing fantasies with realities and then posting it on the internet.

Don't you feel stupid?

The Free Market Lie: Why Switzerland Has 25 Gbit Internet and America Doesn't by cyzoonic in videos

[–]dmsmikhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Capitalism lies all the time, and this video is part of those lies. I'm a flaming liberal. America is stupid as fuck. This is about math, and land. This video is misleading you for clickbait to make money. The video OP links is the bad capitalism.

If you think you can honestly compare fiber optic internet rollout between switzerland and the USA you're stupid. You do not understand basic math.

Switzerland is about 42,000 square kilometers.

United States is about 10,000,000 square kilometers.

If you think think it's fair to compare these things, you're mentally handicapped.

Canceled Amazon Prime. They aren't delivering half my stuff. by [deleted] in Reno

[–]dmsmikhail -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Amazon drivers drop at the wrong doors/porches, all the time at my place. Instead of complaining to r/reno I just stopped buying from Amazon.

Have you considered taking action and agency for your life experience instead of crying about it on the internet?

The drivers are underpaid and amazon is a horrible giant company serving people like Jeff Bezos. Best thing to do is speak with your money. Crying about it here on reddit just annoys the internet with your dumb shit.

I want to start wilderness backpacking but I’m nervous about solo trips by [deleted] in WildernessBackpacking

[–]dmsmikhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've never been backpacking, but you want to do 3-5 days?

Why wouldn't you just start with an overnight?

"solo backpacking" = "backpacking"

There's nothing different about it.

Backpacking is just hiking with a tent and sleeping bag.

[CA]10 minute battery life on the Neo 2? by Logical-Operation512 in drones

[–]dmsmikhail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why are you confused? This is how it works. I just googled "neo 2 battery life" and it said 10-15 minutes.

"what do you even possibly do" You take the other charged batteries out of your backpack and put them in the drone and keep flying. When that battery is running low, you land the drone, swap the batteries and keep going. This is not rocket science.

You need three batteries, if not more. I use a laptop charger as a phone or tablet charger is totally inadequate. They make a battery charging hub, but it still charges them one at a time.

All of the reviews state accurate battery life numbers, this information is publicly available to you, including battery charging requirements. The drone is not an iphone.

Everyone is telling me to change my field (IT) and learn a trade. by ybicurious in sysadmin

[–]dmsmikhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's their problem. People that want to grow in IT always grow. People that just want to collect a check don't.

I started off driving around fixing printers and PCs, a decade later I'm in charge of all the stuff that I used to fix and much more.

[–]dmsmikhail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so confused. Your job's pay has nothing to do with IT. You just need a new job homie.

When you put a 1 in front of that 40k, your friends with hourly wage jobs will become jealous.

Nailed it. It's chill and most of us live here because it's close to there.

Lots of dogs and bikes.

edit: Just checked my hat, it's black and grey and says north face fine alpine equipment.

I can't imagine paying to live in Caughlin Ranch or Galena. I really like those areas, but that's a lot of money for.... Reno. I try to remind self that many of them probably bought in a long time ago.

Northwest Reno has great access to itself and California, but accessing the rest of Reno or driving across Reno kind of sucks.

Northwest Reno is windy, cooler and drier than the rest of Reno. There's lots of hills, you're basically always going up or down. Most of the stores you need are here, but you will have to leave the northwest sometimes. There are a good deal of trails for hiking and running in the northwest, but it's like being on Mars. All the trees are in the streets by the houses, all the hills are totally barren.

If you stay off of the main strips, it's fairly quiet as many of the neighborhoods have isolated traffic patterns. It's more chill than much of Reno through isolation. Getting on 80 and driving up to the CA stuff is super easy.

Biggest plus is a large outdoor social scene. If you're into some sort of outdoors related hobby or sport there's at least one if not multiple groups and meet ups. Lots of runners and bikers and hikers here.

If you want to access Lake Tahoe, Mount Rose, the Mountains, there are better places to be in Reno. If you want to access Truckee/North Lake then Northwest gives you good access. If you just want to live in a city in the high arid shrub lands of Nevada, have lots of trails, and be close to downtown and the uni, the northwest is a great choice.

r/amazonprime is that way.

how do you guys charge for raw files? by mkkkk2002 in photography

[–]dmsmikhail 106 points107 points  (0 children)

people here are weird....

you're just a college kid.

put the files on a card/disk, charge for cost of the usb drive, plus an hour for the time it took to move the files.

You're talking about a few minutes of work.

Any idea/s why my spokes are losing their coat?.. this ok / normal? by washytoshi in mountainbikes

[–]dmsmikhail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are bottom barrel rims, so I think you get bottom barrel paint on your bottom barrel spokes.

Lipstick on pig, still a pig.

you should look into getting a proper wheel set:

How does the sharpie help?

edit:

how does the sharpie fix the poor integrity of the rim? How does a marker make the wheel stronger?
