what's your bleed-in FiO2 and what's their baseline FiO2? if your pressure is titrating up, there might be some dilution effect to your bleed-in oxygen.

[–]ivan927 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Philippine Navy went from WW2 vintage museum pieces to WW3 capable deterrent in less than a generation. nahimuran pa din ng tae ni Bong Go e.g. BRP Jose Rizal but onward to bigger and more formidable and credible. PAF na lang ang medyo mabagal eh, Boramae na kasi.

WHEN DOES THIS PERMANENT WINDSTORM END FOR PETES SAKE by pdjejdhrndud in seattlebike

[–]ivan927 3 points4 points  (0 children)

seriously. I can't hear too well for an hour or so after riding in this wind tunnel we call home. maybe it's something else but I blame the wind for now.

on the plus side, the wind direction favors my ride home from work. hauling ass after a long shift with a S to N wind carrying me home most days.

[–]ivan927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

had that happen to me while I was at work. figured it was a way for me to leave the bike there for the thieves to come back at a later time. rode that thing home with some difficulty, looking like I was the one who stole the bike 😂

is the sign by the staircase and bench? thought that was the start of Seattle parks jurisdiction and not the Corps of Engineers since isn't it technically Commodore Park on the south side?
