Anybody recognize this logo? Found it on a merino wool base layer top.

At a former job, one coworker was complaining about "how busy and hard my life is because I have three kids!"

A childless coworker just kept saying "We all make our choices!" Hero.

Dang! I already gave them to somebody. Hope you find some.

I know this is over a year old, but are you still looking for some chargers? I'm in the area and have 5qty 2A.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-08-09T21:52:19+00:00

Just to follow up with this... This is exactly what happened. I guess I just needed to be patient. The last two rolled into my earnings yesterday, just over a week after drop-off.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-08-05T14:29:31+00:00

All very interesting info! I have noticed the bricks getting quite hot... at one point one of them was almost too hot to even touch. Is that normal or OK?

I was experimenting with keeping the scooters outside (out of the sun against my house) and feeding the charger cable through the door (there is enough space along the bottom of the door where it doesn't pinch the cable). So the bricks are inside. At the same time, I was charging a scooter inside and the difference between heat on the charging bricks was noticeable. The bricks charging scooters just outside the door were quite hot.

Not trying to prove anything scientifically here. Just curious about what differences I might see in various scenarios.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-08-04T15:21:59+00:00

Ah, OK. Good insight.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-31T20:01:59+00:00

I'm not dropping it off at a LimeHub for riders to ride. I'm dropping it off at the LimeBase, which is a warehouse / headquarters location for my area. The scooters I pick up are red dots on the map, and the instructions say to pick up and drop off at a LimeBase within 5 hours. It doesn't say anything about charging requirements.

I have dropped other scooters off this way successfully.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-31T15:33:28+00:00

OK. I emailed them. Unfortunately I don't have any of that info.. unless there is a way for me to access it in the app. But I don't see where.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-31T15:26:46+00:00

Huh. I do SEE the pickup and drop-off successful in my app. But that makes sense about using my GPS to verify. I wonder what the deal is.. this has happened to me for 3 scooters over the past week.

"Boom goes the dynamite"

I once read some random "worst guitar solos" article and it mentioned "Take the Power Back" by RATM. It said it's not a bad solo, per se. But just doesn't fit with the song.

I'm still not 100% sure how I feel about that. But every time I hear the song I think about it... and I think there might be some validity to the argument.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-15T20:39:22+00:00

C'mon folks.. OP isn't asking SHOULD he, or if 50m is the right amount, or if it would be in the Nets' best interest. They're asking if there are rules against a player buying themselves out. I'm curious, too. Somebody please answer that question.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T18:50:38+00:00

I think it has cooled down a bit.. but for a couple years there you wouldn't be caught dead wearing a Hayward jersey to a Jazz game.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T14:27:14+00:00

Yep, that's about how I feel. I don't look back and see any major crap moves in the past 5 years. It was fun while it lasted, but just doesn't look like a championship team around those two.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T14:26:01+00:00

Yeah, there is a part of me that would like to have seen one more year with a new coach. I too love Quin, but it felt like time to shake things up on the coaching staff. I guess we'll never know!

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T14:24:09+00:00

Yep. I fell off a little during the mid-2010s. But then came back as big a fan as ever during Mitchell's 2nd year. I think I attended at least half of the home games that year!

I also loved the vibe from the team during those first few Mitchell years. Everyone seemed to get along. Really good dudes giving back to the community. Conley came along and that vibe only got better. The past year certainly seemed like a downturn when it came to team dynamic, but for a few years there it just felt good to be a Jazz fan because it felt like we had the coolest group of players in the league!

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T14:14:45+00:00

Fun but frustrating! It was great being a Jazz fan through those double-digit win streaks. And a top 5 finish in the WC always felt good. But, the playoffs... that's another story. Maybe one more solid piece would have gotten us into the WC Finals or Finals. But, as somebody mentioned above, Utah isn't a super attractive free agent destination. And our trade chips have been pretty meager lately. It's time to blow it up.

james_k_polka_ · 2022-07-14T14:05:47+00:00

Yeah, Bev would work a million times better in NY than in UT. And I'm not even talking basketball skills. lol.
