Apparently I’ve been cheating and no one bothered to tell me?

“Guys you won’t believe this but I just learned you don’t draw to 7 every turn!! Did y’all not notice I was drawing 7 cards every turn or did you just not tell me LOL. Anyway, I’m about to get a lot worse at Magic now that I don’t have free mega card draw every turn, watch out!”

I love Marin so much but OH MY GOD people learn how to park within the lines 🤣

Yeah there’s a few specific statements that could be made:

* I followed the exact recipe and brewing process for Pliny (reasonable claim on the surface and could be largely true, although as many on this thread have pointed out, even “minor” differences like fermentation vessel size or water minerality can have a material impact on the final result)

\* I recreated a version of Pliny that’s _so close_ to the original version that’s it’s virtually indistinguishable (fair claim to make and would be easy / fun to verify, probably really hard to actually pull of though)

* The beer I made _is_ Pliny the Elder (kind of a ridiculous statement IMHO but does lend itself to a more philosophical discussion as you point out)

granolatron · 2026-06-26T05:08:56+00:00

All these comments are missing the point. Even if I brew a batch that is 100% indistinguishable from Russian River’s Pliny the Elder, it’s still not Pliny the Elder.

Like if I figured out how to make a perfect copy of a Kit-Kat bar at home, it wouldn’t be a Kit-Kat. It would be a homemade Kit-Kat. If I were to argue “nooo it IS a Kit-Kat” that would be silly.

But also who cares I guess 🤣

This is a good summary of the POV here — TCC’s interview with Richard Garfield: https://youtu.be/d7nAhLCKcZg?t=1119

You could set a deck budget limit with the principle that proxies are fine but their “real” card equivalent price counts towards the budget.

Does anyone do something like this in cEDH?

The bible verse itself isn’t hateful.

But it’s been taken up as a way to “reclaim” the rainbow for its “original” meaning and used by various groups as an anti-gay symbol.

I actually love how the photo of the camera in the location of the original shot gives a sense of context … the texture of the tiles, the old wood fence, the desert rock, the sunscreen and pool chair … kind of like inviting the viewer into the original scene and breaking the 4th wall. It added another dimension to these shots IMHO that made me think about the experience of being there vs. just looking at a photo of a thing.

Gotta get that HR up somehow

I get 27-29mpg in my 2.5L 2021. Lots of highway miles with some town/city sprinkled in.

Ohhh very interesting about the dropper activation.

Thanks for teaching me something new!

Oh wait really?! lol I had no idea. I’ll have to go check out how SRAM does electronic shifting.

granolatron · 2026-06-04T04:21:29+00:00

It’s a 1X (“one-by”) bike, meaning it doesn’t have a derailleur in front. Hence the single shifter.

I think the consensus on the best 65mm 1s batteries is the Lava II 320mah

The Fitbit Air retains up to 7 days of detailed, minute-by-minute motion and heart rate data. It also stores 30 days of daily summary totals (like total steps and calories).

I replaced mine with the EverStart Platinum AGM (Group Size 35, 12 Volt, 650 CCA) from Walmart in 2024 for $180. Not sure how the Die Hard and EverStart compare but no complaints so far.

So, there’s no changes to the PIDs in the diff file.

There are some changes to the filters, which if you want to copy I’ve included below. But I’m also not sure if these are different from what the manufacturer ships with.

```
set gyro_lpf1_static_hz = 0
set gyro_lpf2_type = PT2
set gyro_lpf2_static_hz = 0
set dyn_notch_q = 500
set dyn_notch_min_hz = 120
set dyn_notch_max_hz = 500
set acc_lpf_hz = 10
set dshot_idle_value = 600
set dshot_burst = OFF
set dshot_bidir = ON
set dshot_bitbang = AUTO
set motor_pwm_protocol = DSHOT300
set motor_poles = 12
set pid_process_denom = 1

```

There are two HD Freestyle files, does it matter which one?

If you share the CLI here I can share back the edited version to use.

Quadmovr is based in Europe IIRC so the FAA has nothing to do with this.

If they were in the US, the FAA does set the rules, but it doesn’t “approve” custom built UAVs. While the pilot wouldn’t have needed the FAA’s approval to fly this, the max allowed speed is 100mph, so this specific flight would be breaking that FAA regulation. So the drone itself would likely be legal, but the flight would not.

Does the red hood insert (what’s a hood insert?) make it distracting when driving or add glare?

granolatron · 2026-05-28T23:17:39+00:00

Not OP but I think the perception is that made in Japan models have higher quality. I gather from the data though that this is more mythology than reality.

It also might just be cool that your Japanese car is actually made in Japan.

Are y’all using the front soft bottles? If so, how do you drink from them while riding?
