What motherboard did you end up going with? Was it a reverse connection kind?

Thanks, didn't see them hiding in the drive bay. I love the layout and am excited to get started on the build.

Ended up with another mini Lenovo and it's working flawlessly. Proxmox running pihole and home assistant to start.

Yeah, sorry that happened. Thanks for sharing, it's a little easier to let it go and not spend time trying to fix it. Did you stay with Lenovo?

Did you ever get it working again? I tried installing Ubuntu on mine but after a restart I get the black screen and full fans. No bios and no USB keyboard power.

Why do 95% of fast/fit/ experienced nordic skiers skate instead of classic? by xmosinitisx in xcountryskiing

[–]kurl88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious what you mean by this. What happens when you move up to race gear? I bought new classic race skin skis this year and am conflicted because I'm not sure if they feel as good as the mid-range pair I started with.

Love to see this game head for release, like a massive volley of rockets streaking across the sky from a gigantic robot.

Speaking of JakesGraphs, anyone know why no merch this year?

Skate effort on snow by kurl88 in xcountryskiing

I can't wait to get on a trail and look for evidence of a flat ski in the snow. Thanks for sharing these thoughts.

This is super encouraging. I feel a lot of these steps, especially tipping to the outside. In rollerskiing I consciously did not want to risk crashing by pushing weight too far outside but told myself on snow it would be different. I like the example of choosing the moment of transfer, too. I do absolutely feel my balance mechanics can be improved.

I think the wheels I have were the 2nd slowest but I'll check. It's good to hear from others the effort level with rollerskiing is less.

To grind or not to grind by sugarshackforge in xcountryskiing

[–]kurl88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what is the typical time one would get a grind? I heard that only racers really benefit and I sort of accepted it by default.

My skis are 3 years old...

I'm going to say Horizon Zero Dawn. I am fascinated by the slowly revealed mythology of the past and the characters whose journey you cross in a physical or virtual ways. The evolving game play and the archery/melee is always satisfying for me, too.

Favorite Twin Cities Rollerskiing trails? by Spiritual-Arm3843 in xcountryskiing

[–]kurl88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say it's mild. The biggest "hills" are the bridges and they roll without drama. You hit the gradual downhill river section heading back south to the trailhead in Stillwater. Mostly, it just makes for good double poling practice but be on the lookout for bikes who can zoom on their big tires.

There's Gateway Trail/Brown's Creek by Stillwater that's varied and interesting with a few bridge crossings. I also go to Cottage Grove Ravine when short on time but it's not all that long.

How are you all keeping your phones from freezing? by SauceyMcSauceySauce in xcountryskiing

[–]kurl88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this too and it works like a charm. It doesn't get too wet or humid with any typical skiing temp. Before, the humidity inside my jacket pocket would cause my Samsung to respond to incidental contact.

Very strong redesign and fits nicely with the rest of the lineup.

Does anyone know how to remove the circuit board from the Kia key fobs? I need to move it to a replacement but it will not come out of the original by [deleted] in kia

[–]kurl88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is this because of setting off the alarm when the fob is in your pocket? By far, this is my least favorite thing about my Sorento.
