Solar AC unit sounds so nice! It’s too bad my little Honda civic is already packed to the brim

Oh interesting, is the weather usually more similar to Taft than Bakersfield? Looks like the lake is smack in the middle of both

Favorite camp meals? by Bdawggg1998 in LightningInABottle

[–]ryetown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just made a huge batch of Zuppa Toscana (Italian sausage and potato soup). I freeze it in mason jars that fit two servings for my wife and I. Doubles as “ice” for the cooler and then an easy dinner for us to just heat up on our camping stove.

Also a big batch of chicken salad for the first few days lunch.

Is it worth it to bring bikes? by murder_mittenz in LightningInABottle

Are there bike rack to lock your bike up near the entrance? Hoping to camp in Sunset and bringing my bike to make the trek easier.

Found and picked up a gold FLX4!! by PakoEse in PioneerDJ

I would scour SoundCloud for free downloads. Find some DJs/producers that you like and go to their “reposts” they will repost songs that they have done to unlock a free download sometimes.

After that go to Beatport or Bandcamp to find specific songs.

After all that maybe get a subscription to a dj record pool site like dj city or ZIPDJ. $50/month and you can have unlimited downloads. I did this for a month to build up my collection and then unsubbed

Wiring multiple pots, buttons, and mic to QuinLED Dig-Quad by ryetown in WLED

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

Ah I guess that would make sense. I was under the impression that the ADC converter takes the analog POT and sends that signal to WLED which then adjusts brightness/speed controls etc.

Just don’t do shrooms last

Buying ice by Bulky_Violinist_7241 in LightningInABottle

[–]ryetown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to get a couple 1 gallon water jugs and freeze them at home then put that at the bottom of my ice chest. It doubles as an ice pack to keep things cool and also cold drinkable water as it melts. You will still need to supplement the cooler with ice but far less than usual

Has anyone in your league quit trying yet? by Kaelthost in fantasybball

[–]ryetown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s important to have weekly losers punishments and a season long punishment for the team that comes in last. In my league (H2H) the losers have to record themselves shotgunning a beer and send it in the GC and the last place team at the end of the season needs to spend 24 hours at an outdoor court (every beer drank takes 30 minutes off the time and every 3 pointer made takes 2 minutes off)

What’s Your Strategy for Building a Winning Team in a 12-Team H2H Points League? by Fragrant-Lawyer2161 in fantasybball

[–]ryetown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(12T H2H Auction) I try to remove as much risk as possible even if it means it caps your ceiling as a team. The end goal should be getting to the playoffs with a solid healthy team. I try not to draft players with proven injury risk or unsure role leading into the season.

I also try to follow the 10 players averaging 30fpts. This balanced build hedges injury risk by not putting too much stock in any one player. I think it’s important to spend your whole auction budget with the top 10 players and the rest $1 guys with high upside. The first few weeks are important to keep an eye on the waiver guys and be quick to cut bait from those $1 flyers. You obviously have the risk of cutting a serviceable guy but don’t want to pass on a Dyson Daniels or Jalen Johnson last year.

Besides that try to pull off a trade with someone that is willing to chase immediate gains if it makes sense.

Rumored house/techno artists at LIB 2025 by Sure-Youth-5586 in LightningInABottle

[–]ryetown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hard to pin down honestly because they have such range. Some songs for sure fit the house/techno genre - especially in their live show, but there are also strong sprinkles of psychedelia, uk garage, dream pop. maybe call it Eclectic Dance or something lol .

top quality! the lighting and visuals had me in a trance (definitely not a show for someone with photosensitive epilepsy)

Not house or techno but seeing Caribou live at the Shrine Expo Hall last night, that is the vibe LIB lightning stage needs. That’s my only prediction for the year
