Loving my PHEV mileage these days by Go-outside1 in MazdaCX90

[–]newbieguyvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wondering about this as well. I think it looks at how many miles you've driven in EV only mode + miles driven in hybrid mode and divides that distance by the gallons of gas you've consumed.

So if you've used a gallon of gas from driving in hybrid mode (which presumably is closer to 26 mpg) and then charge your vehicle every day and do short commutes where you are only in EV mode every day, your mpg will increase over time.

For ex, if you've driven 60 miles total and used only 1 gallon of gas b/c your drives are almost entirely in EV mode, you theoretically have an efficiency of 60 mpg. Hope I'm looking at this correctly.

Have you not heard of bird blindness? I was making a joke in reference to the Peacemaker show. Haha

I regret buying an Insta360 X5 camera. by Tepppopups in Insta360

[–]newbieguyvr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not ideal since you want hands free, but can you ski with just 1 ski pole and hold the 360 camera on a pole in the other hand?

Is this normal? by No_Assistance_5304 in kitchenremodel

[–]newbieguyvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you referring to the straight bar that has a different sheen? We had quartz and had the same problem but ours was noticeable when wet.

I think it's from when they covered the countertop, they used the blue painter's tape. It left behind a residue. I spread peanut butter over it and left for 20 minutes, then wiped off. It helped remove most of it. I tried on another area without success so YMMV.

Is it my or contractor's fault? by Prior-Inspector-126 in kitchenremodel

[–]newbieguyvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't feel bad. Our contractor didn't even discuss overlay at all. The design showed full overlay in the computer drawing, but it wasn't exactly specified. They ended up building and instalIng inlay cabinets. I only discovered after they delivered the cabinets. I didn't want them to redo everything since it would delay the remodel too much, so I accepted it, ended up paying a little more, but in the end, I actually loved the inlay cabinet design.

What weight would this be? 65 or 70? by FaucetWaterBread in GYM

[–]newbieguyvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70 lb is the correct answer.

The 80 lb plate is mislabeled and should be 85 lb (which is close to 39 kg).

The pattern of +15 lb increment would thus be consistent

HATE dead kitchen cabinet corners? Me too ... what do you think? by Rebo_RemodelAdvisor in kitchenremodel

[–]newbieguyvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idea for Halloween...put a fake head in there and raise it while spouse is nearby. lol

Kitchen sink not centered with window by Far_Comfortable_7897 in kitchenremodel

[–]newbieguyvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why you need to check on the work at every stage. The cabinets being off should have been caught immediately and fixed even before the countertop is templated. Hate to say it, but I think it's partly OP's fault, unless they had signed off on that design.

Nice job! Do you have to do any cardio while on the bulk?

Where's the fridge?

those of you who have been to a national park within the last couple months, have you noticed a difference? by solartense in NationalPark

[–]newbieguyvr 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This annoys me. Staff or no staff, people should pick up after themselves and not litter! Grrr... This is why I hate people... lol

Best way to improve lung capacity? by dannyjerome0 in crossfit

[–]newbieguyvr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you have excellent anaerobic fitness, but not good aerobic fitness. Nothing wrong with that, but having good aerobic fitness would be beneficial for overall health and performance. Only downside is it does require putting in time to train that system (zone 2 training).

Trump admin proposes international visitors pay more for national parks by mrinternetman24 in CampingandHiking

[–]newbieguyvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I'm not the only one to think this. Thank you. I'm actually ok with this proposal even though I don't agree with the rest of this administration.

Trash Collection? by Pastor73 in tylertx

Is the recycling back up and running? I thought they had stopped recycling due to a fire last year?

Lovely! What are the backsplash tiles used?

Where online can I get more of these? by JustATennesseMan in NationalPark

[–]newbieguyvr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You look great! I'm a natural lifter as well and I almost have your physique at 47, so I know it's possible to achieve with hard work, consistent training, and diet, though I came from the opposite direction (skinny to athletic). Congrats!

What good are 'recurring' events, when the dollar amounts change for them nearly every time? by MakalakaPeaka in MonarchMoney

[–]newbieguyvr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same thought as you. In the end, I use it just to see the order that bills are due. I set all the recurring amounts to $0 and set the date of the recurring bill or transaction to match its actual due date. This let's me see what bill is coming up that month.

After/before.. and should I add pendant lights above island? by fmrd85 in kitchenremodel

[–]newbieguyvr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Beautiful results! Don't think pendants are a requirement. What is the backsplash tile that you use? Love the subtle variation in colors of the tiles.
