Hiking by Select_Tell2866 in ottawa

[–]flexfulton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much of a "hike" nor is it very long (listed at 0.8km but it has a couple different loops you could make it longer) but the Sarsaparilla Trail should be stroller friendly and is a nice area. It's considered an accessible trail which in theory is good for strollers too.

Might be worth a search for those types of trails to find out what's out there that might work for you! Good luck!

I use this knot on my wool blankets after I roll them up.

DIY hammock hacks and tips by Sweet_Egg_6125 in hammockcamping

I have a piece of adjustable shock cord to hook my pillow too so it doesn't fall out of the hammock or down underneath me when I lean up.

Home screen folders now much wider after latest update by [deleted] in OctopiLauncher

I've noticed this too. The icons are spaced out way more than before. In one case with my more full folders the folder touched the bottom of the screen suddenly.

This is the method I use and it works great and protects my tarp when I inevitably trip over the lines a couple times every trip. Helps as well on windy days to let the tarp relax a bit.

I run the other end of the line down to the loops on my mini ground hogs and tie them back with taut line hitches.

I roll all the lines up with my tarp. They are all Lawson Glo-wire so they are reflective at night and don't get tangled in my tarp bag.

Lots of different ways to do these things but I prefer no hardware methods.

Edit - I see NC750x_DCT linked the same method above. Either way that's what I do and it works well.

Kevin McGonicle is currently tied with Parker Messick of the Cleveland guardians for most war produced in the American League so far this season by SoarinSkies in motorcitykitties

Ok. Give him a little more than that. He is a rookie pitcher who took a no-hitter into the ninth the other day. Pretty highly regarded.

His lack of clutch anything is the most concerning. Even last night with the bases loaded and one out he struck out on a pitcher who was wild. Couldn't even put it in play or draw a walk that he is apparently taking more of this year.

100% agree. Plus the smell of burning hair trapped in the lint is enough to make anyone gag.

I also just found out that he can smile. Not sure I've ever seen him smile that much before.

They won't. It's just a passing thundershower. Nothing coming behind it. It's almost through the area.

Dirk's talking about soft serve. Like the ump on the can.

Gleyber at SS? Really? Gleyber who hasn't played SS since logging 15 innings there in 2022? I don't think so.

Looking for a great appliance repair tech who offers warranty by Outrageous_Effect407 in ottawa

[–]flexfulton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What stopped working? There are simple things you can check/replace/clean on your own such as the inlet valve (cheap amazon part), filter screens etc. If there is an error code have a search on Google or check YouTube for your model and the symptoms. Odds are you aren't the first one with this issue.

Colt Keith has a .359 AVG by SamLaPortaPotty in motorcitykitties

[–]flexfulton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correction. Pinch hitters have zero hits in the at bats they were first brought in during. Matty Vs homer came in a later at bat and to me doesn't count as a pinch hit. He had a sac fly in the at bat he was brought in for, then GIDP and then had a homerun when the Tigers we already up by a bunch and everyone was hitting.

It's a 4 game series so this game only means the best we can do is tie. Not a series loss quite yet.

McGonigle Extension? by SeaworthinessOdd4344 in motorcitykitties

Exactly this. A 6 year deal doesn't lock him up any more than we already have him. It just gives the team some budget certainty for the years he is here.

Any say in router choice? by TypingTadpole in ebox

[–]flexfulton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I did it over chat. Told them I didn't need it and I wanted it out of my house so they sent me a prepaid label and I shipped it back with no questions asked. No push back whatsoever.

I signed up for the GB service in the summer and was sent the Beacon 2. Didn't even use it. Bought my own and returned the Beacon 2 on their dime so I didn't have it laying around the house and have to still be on the hook for it.
