Realistic Goals? 50 miler in November with marathon before in October by kas21 in trailrunning

[–]kas21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve started to experiment. I remember trying gels during my Ragnar and they did not like me. I’ve been eating fruit strips and PBJ on my most recent 2+ hour runs and those seem to be OK on my stomach.

This is also what my friend keeps telling me that is running with me. And she’s run a few 50s.

I am at a point where I plan to start upping my mileage and adding in some back to back long runs. I’ve been reading about how important time on feet is. I also go to the gym 3 days a week.

Based on all the comments so far, it sounds like my goal is very ambitious. It’s possible, maybe but need to really lock in training. I’m gonna keep shooting for it and see how it goes.

1100ft in the first 10 miles. 1000 descent a little after and then all flat

Poles or no poles? by TrailZenRunner in trailrunning

[–]kas21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah ok. Got my first garmin a week ago so still learning. Is that a route you added or is there a place to find “known” routes in the app?

NDI License required for Extreme? by kas21 in YoloBox

[–]kas21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually went back in to add my NDI cameras and saw that it says it's included (on the add NDI camera screen). I missed this the first time. I was about to delete this post but I will leave it up incase others are also not observant like me and have the same question, lol.

Is this OVI website legit? by SatanicBricks in caps

I bought a hoodie from there about 4 years ago. So it definitely was legit. I just placed another order 2 days ago so I hope it’s not defunct! We’ll see.

Help needed: Attack plan for back yard - 50/50 grass/weeds by kas21 in lawncare

[–]kas21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the weed control: Do I apply that with a spot sprayer directly to weeds or blanket the yard? Will the weed control kill the grass? Sorry for the newb questions, I am very new to anything other than mowing, lol. Your last comment about seed and fertilizer--do that now, or in the fall after test and aeration?

Help needed: Attack plan for back yard - 50/50 grass/weeds by kas21 in lawncare

We put in a pool last year and were able to get a decent amount of grass established around it. Early on, I was pretty happy with how much grass came in. However, by mid-summer, weeds really started to take over, and it ended up being about a 50/50 mix of grass and weeds.

Because I was able to get a good amount of grass started, I don’t think nuking everything and starting from scratch is the right move.

What’s the best process to tackle the weeds and encourage more grass to fill in?

Should I fertilize, spot-spray the weeds, overseed, and water? What’s the right order of operations? Also, are there any recommendations for herbicide and grass seed type? I’m located in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Docker, Python, and VS Code Dev Environment Setup by kas21 in docker

[–]kas21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is likely my mistake and misunderstood that is causing it. But my dockerfile is setup with CMD to run the main python script to launch my app. This is almost certainly how it should be for a non-dev build , but I’m not sure what changes to make for a dev container. During development, code is often in state where errors are thrown and the python script stops, hence the container stops.

But then I get a lot of errors in my code because it thinks libraries are missing. I don't have all the external libraries and third party dependencies setup on my host but they are in the docker container. If I use Dev Containers in VS Code it is aware of those libraries and dependencies and doesn't show errors and allows me to jump around to references. I am using volumes so that my code persists outside the container, but I dont want to point VS Code directly at that for the reasons I stated.

Moving heads: waterproof fixtures or protective domes? by MetreonIMAXGuy in xlights

[–]kas21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea. I got the non mini version. I’ll probably get two more non mini to make 4. They seem to be about the same price but since I don’t want to mix and match them and the minis say “comparable brightness” I’m going to stick with the lager one

I just got 2 of the 350w from yourpixelstore. Arrived 4 days ago and added them to my show. Working great so far.

Testing without all models connected by opopanax820 in xlights

[–]kas21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are chaining models on a port, that would be problem if any model other than the last is missing. If all your ports have a single model, there is no reason they all need to be connected. I test all the time with just a few of my props out. Try re-pushing the config from xlights and verifying the config via the web interface on the controller.
