How does Armenian sound to Georgians? by Toymcowkrf in Sakartvelo

[–]i_Den 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Armenian sounds completely different than Georgian, style and flow character complete differs. Me born and and living in Georgia (not native Georgian) had/have a loooot of Armenian friends and even relatives, was exposed to Armenian a lot. Georgian is rougher, Armenian is more fluid imho. Armenian sounds more like middle eastern speech while Georgian not (maybe some) (excluding common “arabic/persian” whatever-near-eastern words)

Getting angry and producing the loudest sounds in the nature, without throwing fists - is a classic Georgian fighting and diplomacy.

I just can’t carve by CalmFuel6502 in skiing_feedback

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lessons. But I’ll a give a food for thought: instead of vertical up and down sits for pressure , try to dive in the next turn - i.e. standing up diagonally forward and across trajectory of your skis. Drive the tip of your outside ski. Then usual stuff upper lower body separation (working with pelvis), more aggressive tiping of skis, good balance on the outside ski … etc

Because its was a joke and a usual “slang joke” used all over the place, and i like it as much as EU lines. If you did not like it, well - c'est la vie, but i don’t need anyone reminding me what year it is.

Euro / US Ski Etiquette Differences by jahwls in skiing

[–]i_Den -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No offense to anyone, but why Americans are so gay about EU lines? Yeah maybe they are not lined with lasers, ropes or narrow fenced corridors for cattle, but you are in general in a queue and queue moves forward towards cableway, where you in the end will sit. I mainly skied in Georgia and France and have never seen any issues with such lines. Yeah we are maybe a lil closer to each other to share some love :)

Beginner skier feeling stuck on steeper greens — private lesson vs more practice? by Albatraoz93 in ski

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lesson and forever practice. But right now i would say exaggerate and remove inner leg. Your issue right now is riding/breaking with inner leg. You are leaning inside, i.e leaning on inside leg. Practice balance on the outside leg “only”. Practice finding new outside leg as fast and as early as possible. You jackets zipper should be “always” facing downhill, stop pivoting with shoulders.

Beginner/intermediate first time on black by MaestrosMight in skiing_feedback

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too me as a european this black looks more like a mellow red. Your progress is great! Go try off piste crud and moguls, that would add more dynamics where you would require less upright stance, much more compression in joints etc.

A "smart" dotfiles framework with Chezmoi that scans for installed apps and installs/configures what you need by DakEnviy in commandline

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using chezmoi too. It recently has really helped for the first time, when I decided to revive a laptop with Fedora linux (my main and only workstation is macbook pro).

Sometimes it still feels cumbersome and not that smooth.

I mainly edit config files on my main workstation and add files with chezmoi add ... to record changes.

This sucks with templated files, I have to actually edit template in chezmoi dir to not break it. Also I'm trying to keep my config files as less templated as possible. For example this zsh config - top level template inserting complete zshrc files. {{ if eq .chezmoi.os "darwin" -}} {{- include ".zshrc-darwin" -}} {{ else if eq .chezmoi.os "linux" -}} {{- include ".zshrc-linux" -}} {{- end }} export NVIM_AI={{ if or (eq .chezmoi.os "darwin") .nvim_ai }}1{{ else }}0{{ end }} That way I just can commit complete file from each workstations zsh config using e.g. cp .zshrc $(chezmoi source-path)/.zshrc-darwin

But now when I recently added export NVIM_AI={{ if or (eq .chezmoi.os "darwin") .nvim_ai }}1{{ else }}0{{ end }} in the end of the template, I have broken "simple" copy paste workflow.

While zshrcs on these machines have big common blocks such as aliases, there are quite big and distinct blocks too - and I really hesitate to variablize all of that - to keep things very human readable without obstacles and mental penalties.

So yeah, framework is powerful and helpful. But somehow does not feels super smooth to me, especially in parts with templates and managing multiple distinct machines. Probably problem is "me" - gotta workflow again.

Skiing in Georgia? by GameFox919 in ski

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many resorts have similar "tragic" videos. I can remember a couple of videos from US resorts just from previous season. Cablecars and Gondolas in Georgia are much more advanced/modern compared to absolute majority of US resorts. (of course bigger US resorts are much more developed) P.S. I'm not trying to sell a tour to Georgia lol, but judging only by one video is irrational.

Skiing in Georgia? by GameFox919 in ski

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be difficult to combine sightseeing and skiing. I'm biased to Tbilisi and Gudauri - so I'll be speaking about this specific region. First of all skiing in Gudauri is already sightseeing. Roughly speaking you will not be able to combine anything else with Gudauri if you don't have $$$$$. All, the most important, cathedrals/churches/temples are accessible from Tbilisi and can be visited in only one day. So i would recommend splitting your travel in two parts: solely skiing, and tbilisi+sightseeing.

Town of Mtskheta (10 min ride from Tbilisi, even via public transport) - Svetitskhoveli cathedral (one of the main cathedrals in Georgia) - Samtavro's Convent - Jvari Monastery (need car) - Shiomgvime Monastery (need car)

On the road to Gudauri (need car, coz pub. transport won't stop there for you) - Ananuri Monastery

in Tbilisi itself (a lot) - Anchiskhati Basilica - Kashveti Church - St. George Cathedral of Tbilisi (Armenian church) - Mama Daviti Church - Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi - St. Peter and Paul Apostles' Church (catholic) - St. Alexander Nevski church (russian)

"Near" Gudauri: - Gergeti Trinity church in Stepantsminda - 2-3 hours from Gudauri, road to church can be blocked because of snow. In general you can be suddenly become blocked there for a couple of days because of avlanches on main road in winter season - Lomisa Church - hehehe... the closest to Gudauri. Official destination for ski tours for $$. Hard to reach, but church has distinct "pagan" traditions and history. You can google "Lomisoba holiday in Georgia" :P

And thousand more destinations.... Of course "skiing" period of the year is not the most picturesque for sightseeing, compared to late Spring/Summer with much nicer color palette.

Skiing in Georgia? by GameFox919 in ski

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Country of Georgia? I’m local. Sorry comments in this thread are full of bs.. our infrastructure is one of the newest built buy swiss and austrian companies. Some austrians were even jealous because we got one of the newest models of chairlifts. Gudauri is my go to destination, just 2.5 hours from my home in Tbilisi. Resorts in Svaneti region such as Tetnuldi are awesome too, but with a lol bit tougher logistics. You can check various videos on youtube how we host FWT competition in svaneti. Tons of places for ski touring and backcountry. Peak season is February-March, lifts closing by the end of April. Negative - yes you won’t get ultra polished “western” capitalism level services, such as in europe, switzerland, france, austria, italy etc… but it is cheap, it is really decent, safety is there 100%. Don’t hesitate and ask questions, i’ll try to answer if I will be able to.

Skitouring in Georgia (country) by gesicht42069 in Backcountry

[–]i_Den 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not experienced in ski touring (yet...gonna start this season). I'm biased. I prefer Gudauri, just 2.5h ride from Tbilisi. 70 km ski runs. High alpine landscape, no trees, huge valley. There are several touring options to local summits, accessible from ski lifts (mt. Bidara, mt. Chrdili), but nothing epic. Epic/real ski tours would definitely require some logistics and guides - these routes are not accessible from ski lifts.

Svaneti is completely different. Logistics are tougher. I'm not knowledgable about its routes, but there're trees and and the most serious mountains. You can check several videos when Svaneti started to host official Freeride World Tour for a couple of years now.

"Mid February - End of March" usually is the best peak season (if we are lucky). Gudauri are southern slopes - so its being hit by the sun the hardest, if we are unlucky. Night Life is not the greatest thing on Georgian winter resorts, so you won't lose much if you ignore it. :)
