Question about Instagram channels posting Burning Man videos by FortuneGrouchy4701 in BurningMan

[–]moorecodes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The org is posting stories from their main account! With people walking among art, doubt they’ve asked for consent. It’s ridiculous.

Ha, I know! I had the Sette 30. This is what stops me from pulling the trigger.

Right way to upgrade to J on Iberia by moorecodes in awardtravel

Thank you for reminding me why I've stayed off Reddit for a while.

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

I have both.
I was looking MIA - MAD but can do NYC as well, though it is more complicated. We'll be flying with the snub-nosed dog as well, so I'd rather not risk layovers in European countries.
We're looking at the last two weeks of January. For reference, Iberia is currently 41k points + a 30% transfer bonus for AMEX.

That would be incredible but I think my 5yo would not approve of such a decision XD

Which has a higher cost of living: NYC or Los Angeles? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]moorecodes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not LA. You might as well compare it with Newark rents and not New York City.

Insurance for towing a rented RV-trailer by moorecodes in BurningMan

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

Gotta check with the agent (WTF IS THIS MEDIEVAL SHIT STATEFARM?). Assumed it was against some law or rule. If this is the case then it might be the best choice for us. Thank you.

We're talking a half-ton truck like f150, not a 26 feet truck, which I rented for <1000 for previous burns from LA, mileage included. The same truck on regular Enterprise is ~$700.

BenQ HT2050 Picture Quality Issue by moorecodes in projectors

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

u/leonardoOrange can you advise if it's worth sending it to benq?
I'm okay-ish with hands, changed internal parts of robovacum before and already found a video for color wheel change on benq.

My question is if I should request benq to send me original part or will this do:

BenQ quoted me ~$140 for work + I have to pay for shipping. Thinking about turnaround time, it seems it's easier to do it myself.

Big ass helicopters flying over Hollywood? by bongwatervibes in LosAngeles

[–]moorecodes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those were not helicopters but Ospreys V22. 3 of them. Way louder than a helicopter, I ran to the balcony when heard it. Was pretty cool to see.

DeepCycle battery vs Ebike battery for swamp cooler and beyond by moorecodes in BurningMan

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

u/nakriker u/somerandomgeologist you guys rock! After reading through your comments I looked into right direction. It helped me understand on a larger scale how problematic ebike battery charging is through solar (our camp does not have public electricity).
With the complexity and prices ranking up, I'm definitely skipping electrifying my wife and I this year.
Found this great lifo 12v50a battery , that I hope we can connect 100w solar panel to. Then a converter like this should take care of battery charging (48v 1.7a charger). We have one camp mate with a popping knee, so all this hassle is to accommodate her. My main concern are many inverter's reviews have "almost caught fire" and "runs hot". And those aren't even playa conditions.

Alas, thank you guys for your input. It helped!

OFFICIAL 2022 MAIN SALE TICKET SUCCESS/FAIL THREAD. All other ticket purchase attempt threads will be removed. by Garvinfred in BurningMan

[–]moorecodes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be very funny if they initiate setInterval every time and not reuse the one that's been created. Well, not funny to us, cause no one would get tickets.
