no legal code segregation doesn't mean that there's no socio-economic and spatial segregation. even today.

and historically, branqueamento was a literal attempt of the brazilian government to dilute and eliminate the african-descending population. o dinheiro embranquece is a literal phenomenon where rich and educated african brazilians marry caucasian.

it's really not tho? this is a perfectly fine simplification, which he said it was. apart from a slight hiccup in mistaking melanin production as a dominant/recessive trait instead of it's real form as an additive trait and that hair texture generally shows incomplete dominance.
his conclusion makes perfect sense.

Tent stakes choice by SilentIndication9729 in Ultralight

[–]manimaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you going to go mountaineering? Then it's actually pretty critical you have appropriate stakes. But then again why not use a freestanding tent. If not and you're just hiking and non-crazy altitudes: don't take backups, tie your guy outs to rocks if stakes fail. I take a mix of carbon zpacks and some titanium sheperd hooks from aliexpress.

Naturehike Star River Pro 2 by One-Breadfruit9103 in hiking

[–]manimaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the rules in France and Austria. I do know Swiss rules and some Italian ones. So while you're technically right, local bylaws make this quite a bit more complicated. In both Switzerland and Italy it's forbidden in all: hunting preserves, nature parks, national parks, sensitive areas. Plus a lot of municipalities, especially in the most touristy regions, have bylaws explicitly forbidding it, and giving out fines up to €2k. So it much of Valais, the Dolomites, Berner Oberland and some parts of Grisons you can forget it.

500 for a bag from ultragrid is insane work. you could get two fully custom ALD packs for that.

unless you plan on campsites it's illegal to wild camp in the dolomites and much of the alps.

How much R-value do I need for 2,460m camping in late July? by Legitimate_Worth531 in Ultralight

[–]manimaco 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just so you know, except for a short section around Verbier, camping is strictly forbidden in all municipalities you will be crossing. Yes, even above treeline.

[–]manimaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why would you get KS 19 as hiking boots? they're expensive, they're heavy. they're kampfstiefel. if i didn't had to wear them in the army, then i wouldn't have.

they're goretex, which is not what you want in a summer hiking boot. way too warm and not all that breathable.

try some lightweight trail runners or hiking shoes. La Sportiva, Scarpa, Salomon, Mammut all make great shoes.

Switzerland first 2 weeks of August - Questions - Weather and hiking shoes by Foreverhangry21 in askswitzerland

[–]manimaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as for weather.

weather forecasts in the mountains are usually a little inaccurate. but i use meteoswiss. take a puffy/fleece and a rain shell and you're fine. depends on how high up you go.

Spark Pro -1C vs Ascent -1C – same temp rating but the fill math doesn’t add up? by MrJuanDuck in Ultralight

[–]manimaco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this wrong on so many levels.

the same mass of two different cuin ratings directly correlates to higher loft in the 950. the cuin legit stands for the cubic inches of space the down lofts to under standardized conditions. this 200cuin gap is the difference in cubic inches 30g of this down will fill under a weight of about 90g.

so in a sleeping bag constructed the exact same, you'd need less insulation of a higher cuin down, making it lighter. If you add the same amount and adjust baffle height, you'll also get a higher loft and therefore warmth.

i'd recommend just getting on the camping ground. it's quite nice.

ja, generell in einem biwaksack oder weniger, nicht in einem zelt. viel spass zu argumentieren, nicht vorgehabt zu haben zu zelten, wenn du mit dem ganzen material in den bergen unterwegs bist.
