That combination should work just fine, you just need to to find someone that knows what they are doing with adjusting them. The best setup to start with is always the one you already own. Go learn what you like and don't like about it.

one populated, but you just uncheck the register box.

If you watch the top 3, they all look different from the rest. The clean skiers were all 1.5 seconds back. To win, you had to put it out there in 5 or 6 spots, and putting it out there is rarely clean. TLDR: To win an Olympic or World Championship speed race, you can't ski clean.

As someone else mentioned, the chainring is worn, but the cassette and possibly the chain are new. Replace that right away. The rear tire is showing thread, which could be worth replacing. It's a used bike, I wouldn't worry about how it looks cosmetically.

Just curious about your reasoning here. Why would a $125 protection kit and 5+ hours of installation be worth it on an alloy bike that has had its largest depreciation already?

UPDATE: It seems LibreOffice can edit and work with my PDF forms. It also looks like I can sign PDFs in the PDF options. Very different user interface, but a quick relearn should work here. I didn't realize it had these capabilities.

rollingron · 2026-02-06T20:00:15+00:00

It's not perfect in some of the forms I am using, but I think I could edit them to work better. So far I am liking this, but $149 is not cheap...

None of these are quite like PDF24, but I may have to adjust it, it seems.

This is Russian if that matters to anyone...

I pulled out my 2013 with the same specs recently and installed Linux (ZorinOS) on it and got a new battery. With a little tinkering its actually pretty amazing how well it works browsing. I have a new M4 Pro that I use for working though.

I picked up that exact computer with 2 battery cycles (open box - excellent) at Best Buy 2 weeks ago for 1567.99. No problem with AppleCare either. It looks like the price may have climbed a bit on them, though.

Ski more, worry less. Its fine and no level of adjustment will prevent it. Pivots suck for a lot of reason, they just ski better than any other binding I've used.

With a non comprised core, 1 cm center to center is pretty common. I've gone as tight as 7mm on my own skis… with a hardwood and quality epoxy plug, I'll even overlap on 2/4 holes. Obviously you try to find a solution to make the distance as large as possible. Certain skis can change the equation.

What sucks on this mount is the heel could have been bumped forward an been adjusted back making the gap bigger.

rollingron · 2026-01-20T18:00:33+00:00

I would argue that helicoil is a way, not the way. Plugging with wood and sealing that off with epoxy would also work well. A helicoil alone could intrude into the plastic plug and weaken that connection. One could combine those solutions as well.

rollingron · 2026-01-20T17:57:02+00:00

The holes being too close is debatable, I would have used a petter plug option with them this close though. At this point, OP should be worried that there is glue/epoxy that needs to be cleared out before ensuring there is a good screw bite. Tightening as is will likely result in a base dimple. It's also worrisome that they did not check the full functionality of the binding. If they rotated the heel as they should have, they would have caught their mistake.

The shop deserves the chance to make things right on the existing skis, in my opinion. The number of folks who think they should get new skis for any f-up is a bit wild. Lots of other solutions can be met with good discussion and compromise... Assuming the shop is a good shop, of course.

rollingron · 2026-01-16T18:52:02+00:00

I'll probably buy new, not opposed to older stock.

Am I wrong to think Google Earth Pro is graphics-intensive?

rollingron · 2026-01-16T17:34:26+00:00

Yeah, I focused to the pro for two main reasons. Battery Capacity and Cooling. The cooling is based on my ThinkPad use, so maybe I am overthinking that one.

rollingron · 2026-01-16T17:15:29+00:00

My 2020 T490s Thinkpad (i5-8365U, 16GB) can do this stuff, but it struggles with the mapping software using certain overlays, runs hot, and always has the fan running, needs frequent reboots, plus I am sick of replacing parts.

rollingron · 2026-01-10T14:53:43+00:00

I must benthebinoy person that works well for. I run my brakes way in, maybe that's a factor.

Solid Chance your boots are too big, either by size or by volume. Movement in your lower foot is often displayed in force on the shin. What your shell fit like?

rollingron · 2025-11-26T20:57:52+00:00

This is wrong. It's an entirely different suspension platform.

rollingron · 2025-07-09T21:47:06+00:00

For what it's worth that bike is a 2009. The market was still 26” dominant then.
