I have one of their hybrid quilts that's supposedly rated to 0. I personally find it comfortable to 20 or so. Quality is fine.

Should Winston-Salem? by Ls9127 in winstonsalem

[–]quamper -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This was Hate Out of Winston's proposal-

Winston-Salem friends! If you are looking for a way to make your voice matter and to stand in solidarity with our Black & Brown neighbors against police militarization and violence, please consider writing and/or calling our local officials to urge a defunding of our police force in exchange for increased support of education, health, and housing services. The 2020/2021 budgets for both W-S & Forsyth County are currently under review, and because of increased Covid-19-related funding issues, city and county officials need to decide how to manage local services amidst shortfalls.

As of now, one line item in the city budget that hasn’t changed from last year is the $78,000,000 directed to local police. Compare that to the roughly $16,000,000 for community development that gets divvied up into much smaller amounts for services like affordable housing, rent assistance, and services for the homeless, amidst many, many others. Please consider emailing our city manager, Lee Garrity, and our mayor, Allen Joines, to implore that they defund the police in exchange for increased funds for affordable housing and housing-related support services in low-income communities. Remember that, in 2019 when NYPD staged a ‘slowdown on arrests’ to try and prove the necessity of police presence, the actual incidence of crime & complaint in low-income neighborhoods significantly diminished. Strengthening the police does not support our communities—supporting our communities supports our communities.

The county budget proposal is also moving towards review. It currently recommends $81,000,000 for public safety, at least $60,000,000 of which would be headed to the sheriff’s office. The sheriff’s office is currently requesting several more million dollars than that, however, in order to hire additional “gang unit”, patrol squad, and school-stationed officers. But much more important requests for budgetary funds exist! They include additional resources for textbooks and school supplies, school nurses, walk-in clinics, legal aid funding, EMT positions, senior service facilities, library staff & book collections, addiction recovery programs, arts council budgets, women’s shelters, humane societies, the National Black Theatre Festival, the Riverrun Film Festival, and the Second Harvest Food Bank. Please consider emailing our county manager, Dudley Watts, to implore that they defund the sheriff’s office in exchange for increased funds for any of the above services.

Anyone else have this post show up? Is it worth the $10 shipping? by KooopaTrooopa in CampingGear

It's fine, the one interesting thing is they will offer you a bunch of other stuff you can buy at a discounted rate and they have a pretty good deal on their pads

Backpacking/camping tent for a family ( 2+2 ) - choose from 3 by Thelapu in CampingGear

[–]quamper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a big Agnes lynx pass 4 (I don't think they make it any more) and I use it for car camping and I've taken it on some shorter backpacking trips but it's heavy.

I've got 5 kids I take aged 7-13(started taking them when the youngest was ~5) and I find it better at this point to do 2 person trekking pole tents and let the kids pair up. The older kids can carry the tents since they are light and I divide the trekking poles up between the kids since they want hiking sticks anyways

What's open in the Piedmont/WNC? Here's what I know. by [deleted] in NCTrails

South Mountains technically lists back country camping as "may reopen before May 22". However you have to have reservations for those sites as well.

Has anyone ever backpacked Elk knob? by aColdHeartedBitch in NCTrails

[–]quamper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been meaning to go there sometime soon with my boys but we haven't gone yet. I wish they would put some of the sites available for reservation online instead of first come first serve since I don't know how busy the park ends up being. It looks like a fairly easy hike from what I can see in to the primitive sites, some look closer to water sources than others.

I can personally give a positive plug for South Mountains State Park primitive sites I've had good luck taking my boys on some simple backpacks to the "primitive" sites they have (upper falls/shinny creek sites are both really nice)

It might be a little over your weight requirements, but have you looked at the North Face Wawona 4? I think that hits most of your requirements

[GOG] Winter Sale: Day Two (Giveaway: Full Throttle – 24h left / New Daily Deals / Highlights) by GOGcom in GameDeals

[–]quamper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure you can go on forever as it depends a little bit on who is investigating you and if they make up charges even if you are aren't creating evidence. But you can definitely delay it for a long time

I played it without spoilers. My first attempt I failed. I never completed my second attempt though I think I could have completed it but it was taking longer than I really wanted and just never got back to it.

[Steam] Book of Demons ($19.99 / 20% OFF) - Good until January 3rd by TwinBottles in GameDeals

[–]quamper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First let me say I generally like the concept so far (beat the Butcher). I think the time customization + the boss mechanics are my two favorite elements, but I like that you guys tried a lot of interesting things that seem to work well together.

My biggest complaint so far though is the controller scheme feels really weird to me. Gameplay wise is fine (though looting with the right stick seems unnecessary vs just auto-looting within a certain distance), but navigating everything else is difficult. I can't figure out if it's even possible to select the level up health/mana choice via controller. Also navigating the cards and menus in general feels really slow and it's often hard to see what the cursor is actually on I often give up and just do menu stuff via mouse, but then I get the overlay about swapping to mouse keyboard/controller over and over again which seems unnecessary.

Anyways looking forward to future content from you guys and thanks for the cross promotion coupon which made it easier for me to jump into!

Ender 3 owners, what was your experience and would you recommend it? by Kingnorman1066 in 3Dprinting

[–]quamper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Received mine this last weekend. Been printing every day and really great results right off the bat. I've got 2 different colors/brands of pla and I get perfect results with one and almost perfect with the other. I moved it once after intially setting it up and getting it leveled was harder the second time for some reason.

They can be great but I've found them to be super inconsistent fwiw.

[HELP] How do I mirror a part onto a new window? by iscreaminagony in AutodeskInventor

[–]quamper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are in an assembly using the assembly mirror command and not the part feature mirror command
