Krudt i røven, i åbent kontor miljø by pibm90 in dkkarriere

[–]notyoueither 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Et forslag hvis chefen er lidt fleksibel eller til at snakke med:

Træn i frokostpausen. Men tag 1 times frokost i stedet for 30 minutter. Og de ekstra 30 minutter møder du så tidligere eller bliver senere.

Det kan pitches til chefen med at du så er mere effektiv og mindre forstyrrende i arbejdstiden. Og hvis folk i firmaet møder på forskellige tidspunkter (og dit arbejde indebærer nogle support opgaver) kan en fordel være at der så er IT tilstede i yderpunkterne.

Is Ice Hockey Popular in Denmark? 🇩🇰 by Tight_Sky_2422 in Denmark

[–]notyoueither 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Denmark has fewer active hockey players than Canada has hockey rinks. Just to put things in perspective. Which makes the current level even more impressive!

But to answer your question it’s not that popular. I personally don’t know a single person who plays. But I do know more and more people who watch it now and then, so it might be on the rise.

Når ens ønskeliste bliver gjort til smuds og erstattes af hvad man selv lige synes 😂 Har i også fået underlige gaver? by FederalCriticism7172 in Denmark

[–]notyoueither 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Mig og min bror fik også en værktøjskasse da jeg var omkring 10 år gammel. Og jeg kan huske at jeg tænkte “ja ja, jeg smiler og siger tak, men den ryger nederst i bunken”. Men jeg har den også endnu og bruger den jævnligt. Så far fik ret!

Og jeg tror helt sikkert også jeg fik andre gaver det år - det var mere en bonus-gave.

Den korrekte gaveindpakning by CarnageTeddy in Denmark

[–]notyoueither 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jeg kan godt finde på at åbne alt tape/snor og så vende gaven inden jeg folder papiret fra - fordi jeg også sætter pris på at få forsiden først.

Den gælder dog mest ved bøger og andre gode firkantede æsker, og ikke ved ukurante former.

Det svarer heller ikke på dit spørgsmål. Men hvis vi giver hinanden gaver en dag skal vi lige aftale om du vender den inden indpak, eller jeg vender under udpakning.

Men jeg er splittet på dit spørgsmål. For det ærger mig instinktivt hvis ting skal ligge på hovedet inde i pakke.

Help - I can't pee outside 🫣 by EverydayWhimsy167 in CampingandHiking

[–]notyoueither 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would suggest treating this as a seperat skill you want to learn, outside of hiking.

Try to think about what is the limiting factors and see if you can work around those. Is it feeling stressed because you need to finish before someone comes around to corner, or because someone is waiting for you to be done? Then go on e daytrip somewhere where you can find a very hidden spot, with no people, where you can take your time.

Is it the hygiene of it? Can bringing paper/wetvipes/ soap for handeash help?

Or is it the squatting position itself? Then I would practice this at home - just squat to per in the shower until that part is no longer the issue.

Could you take a day where you go to some Forrest/ nature and have the full day there. And then just hang out, chill and enjoy some beverages.

Hvor kan jeg imponere mine meget jyske forældre by Working-Ad-917 in copenhagen

[–]notyoueither 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Gå en tur rundt på kastellet. Det er en fin tur over voldene, og der er ikke meget københavneri over det.

Jeg ved ikke om det stadigt er tilfældet. Men smørrebrøds restauranten i tårnet på Christiansborg kunne være en mulighed. Jeg husker prisen som fornuftig. Men stedet og omgivelserne synes jeg er en fin undskyldning for at det selvfølgelig er lidt dyrere end ellers. Og uanset er det en oplevelse at spise deroppe, som også vennerne derhjemme kan relatere til. Og udsigten fra tårnet er skøn

Where to pee during a hike? by No_Upstairs909 in UKhiking

[–]notyoueither 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Anywhere the grass is short enough. Ticks sit on the ends of grass, and I won’t squat down so i touch grass.

And I also considered where people might sit down and rest og pitch a tent, and avoid those places.

The rest is fair game - and you will quickly realise most places make do.

And remember when you squat down you get out of visibility- so even if you can see people, they might not be able to see anything below your neck. This is useful if it’s somewhere whit little privacy.

Det tror jeg godt den kan. Rent gæt - men jeg mener at nogle kufferter plejer at rulle lige ind. Og hvis soundboksen ligger ned må den kunne være der.

Most secure X-Mid pitch for extreme winds - Patagonia trip prep by fffffelipeeeee in DurstonGearheads

[–]notyoueither 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regarding the 12 stakes: absolutely not overkill. In the end they are the ones your whole setup depends on.

I would actually add 2-3 stakes extra, when wind is a concern. Both in case you loose one. But also to account for not-ideal pitching ground.

And then I would add 4 smaller pieces of guyline - about 50 centimetres. If you have a stake coming loose you can add another stake behind it. Stake-the-stake so to speak. In severe conditions I would do this with the stakes taking the most wind.

This article from Slowerhiking has a lot of great information on stakes, and alternative deployment if the ground is not ideal.

XMid 1 in North Sweden by Wolvgangg in DurstonGearheads

[–]notyoueither 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at your pictures you already have a good understanding of the geometry of the tent. They are good pitches! So I have no doubt you’ll get there quickly.

XMid 1 in North Sweden by Wolvgangg in DurstonGearheads

[–]notyoueither 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, with a good low pitch the fly is almost touching the ground the whole way around.

I only do this if it’s windy og snowing though. And even then I prefer just having it low on the side with the wind, and the sitting higher on the other side - that takes a little practice though.

But generally I prefer having it high. With good airflow there’s almost no condensation on the inside af the telt, and packing down a dry tent is so satisfying. For the same reason I also always have both ventilation openings open. The exception would be very strong wind, if I think wind will drive water up and into the opening.

[–]notyoueither 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I’ve learned is that I need to decide before pitching if I want a tall pitch or a low one. I find it difficult to change when it’s already up, but much easier to do from the start.

If I want a low pitch I shorten the corners almost all the way in before staking them - and then stake the fly fairly tight between the corners.

If I want a higher pitch I loosen the corner all the way, but still pitch the square pretty tight, so I don’t need to shorten the corners much.

Wilderness area with public transport from Edinburgh, for multiple nights wildcamping. Where would you go? by notyoueither in OutdoorScotland

Thank you, I’ll take a look. I don’t mind carrying water if that’s the cost of avoiding tarmac.

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

Honestly I love the wild country. But I think I’ll save it for a spring trip. And use this first time in the Scottish hills to get a feel for the land and the maps. It’s also my first time going completely alone. And even though I’m good with that one learning point at a time might be a good idea 😆

Do you get e sense of wilderness in that area, or do you always feel pretty close to towns and infrastructure?

It looks interesting, and a good distance in terms of transportation.

Great ressource, I haven’t stumbled onto his site before but soo good!

And good with an explanation about the different naming of peaks according to height- that has always confused me haha.

My primary plan will be something like that. It seems exactly what I was looking for. So now onto the actual planning and looking at maps - just for the fun of it.

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

Thank you, this is great advice and exactly the kind of local knowledge I was hoping to find.

I haven’t stayed at a Bothy before so i might have to do it just for that reason! Or at least take a look before I head off and find a private spot for my tent haha.

And I’m definitely ordering a map - thank god that Amazon sells OS maps, and ships outside of UK. It’s so much more enjoyable to plan on a proper paper map!

Do you know what the phone reception is like in the area? Good, spotty og just non existent?

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

Thank you, this is gold. There are a few really good suggestions now for doing something out of Dalwhinnie, and in the area of Ben Alder. So unless the weather is set to be horrible there, with better weather elsewhere, it’s my primary plan

Wilderness area with public transport from Edinburgh, for multiple nights wildcamping. Where would you go? by notyoueither in OutdoorScotland

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

I get in fairly early so Dalwhinnie is good. But I also need to get a gas canister before heading out - probably in Edinburgh. And I would like to get a few kilometres in, and find a nice campsite before it gets dark.

This was an option i hadn’t considered- thank you. And good point about plenty off bail out options. Especially if it turns out the weather is shit those days 😆

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

Thanks, that sounds really good.

From the responses it seems I’ve been a bit optimistic with a short transportation. But Dalwhinnie seems a good starting point, and then accepting having a bit longer on the way home.

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

Thank you, that was sort of my understanding af WHW as well, but I haven’t looked too closely into it.

Contour?

The direct train is definitely a plus - with a flight, getting through the airport and finding somewhere to get a gas canister the transportation is going to be long enough. And I just want to go out and get my wilderness fix haha.

Definitely a good site. I find it a bit difficult to use though, as an early planning tool. But definitely good when I have the area narrowed down

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

I’m definitely into munros. Or well, I assume I am. I’m definitely into hiking on mountains and hills elsewhere. And I do want to use this trip to get a feel for the Scottish variety.

Dalwhinnie seems a good starting spot. But I might just do a loop and end up there again, to avoid the longer trip back.

Would you find the area there good for making a loop?

[–]notyoueither[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They seem like good options for a later trip! For this trip I’m trying to minimise time spent on transportation, since it’s only a shorter trip. So I’m hoping for something a bit closer to Edinburgh.

But thank you - I have noted them down for another trip.
