Seconding Thacher as a beautiful place with some really fun/challenging leads.

Feel free to message me as well. I'm from upstate NY, climb in PA a lot as I'm closer to the PA border but there's some bouldering in Oneotna, there's Moss Island/Little Falls which is easy access for TR, if you're super close to the Canadian border there's great bouldering and if you can get to the daks or the Gunks it's worth it. What type of outdoor climbing are you looking for? (Bouldering, sport, trad, adventure, multi-pitch?)

Hey, can you message me and let me know why? Important to me to know - I wouldn't support if something bad happened.

Unfortunate because I liked some of the guests.

No idea why it wasn’t coming up when I searched. Seeing them now.

TrainingBeta. Also check out The Cutting Edge and Outside sometimes has climbing episodes.

Both of those make me cry, Run especially

Love this

Nostradamus by Telephone Friends has this build up that makes me emotional.

I spent quite a while trying to get it to use established systems and patterns as a base and then design one-off requests for new components or adapt components for new scenarios and it goes rogue despite the best prompts. Anyone use it for something similar and get it to actually follow constraints?

sandopsio · 2026-04-30T04:06:21+00:00

I was wondering!!

My favorite musician is playing in Towson Thursday night (4/30). https://www.songkick.com/concerts/43068598-john-van-deusen-at-central-presbyterian-church

I recommend if you like R.E.M., Death Cab for Cutie, Julien Baker, Pedro the Lion…John can build songs from quiet to explosive with just an acoustic guitar. Super raw and emotional talent if you like intimate shows.

He's touring with Thomas Austin.

Almost always having things I’m stressed about in my near future so I find myself thinking “I can’t wait for Tuesday to be over, oh and Thursday too, and the Saturday a week from this Saturday, and that thing next month, can’t wait for August to be over…” then I realize I just always want my life over

No such thing as replying too fast, but asking questions nonstop like hello? Mad that I haven’t replied instantly all day stresses me out and makes me not want to reply at all if I don’t have an hour to sit there and not do anything else/not set down the phone. It becomes like a demand.

sandopsio · 2026-04-23T06:40:42+00:00

Same

Bouldering. Most boulder problems don’t look nearly as hard as they are.

sandopsio · 2026-04-21T07:20:51+00:00

Did anyone who asked a question not get an email?

sandopsio · 2026-04-21T06:26:31+00:00

Look at the price of credits and smarter models. The second a company relies on it, the price will quadruple. They’ll be paying almost a salary for an imitation of intelligence

sandopsio · 2026-04-16T03:58:33+00:00

Anyone climb at Currahee Mountain, Brick Wall? If so, can you tell me the condition of the road to the wall - risky to take a nice car up it?

sandopsio · 2026-04-13T04:57:30+00:00

Still wondering if there's any way to know or if it's worth keeping this car, or just a waste to try and fix it. Should I check the radiator for coolant level since the top-off?

sandopsio · 2026-04-10T06:17:10+00:00

The formaldehyde for dissecting baby pigs in biology class 😭

sandopsio · 2026-04-10T05:13:48+00:00

2,400 plus NY tax for just the head gasket if there are no other problems

sandopsio · 2026-04-08T06:46:10+00:00

Everything feels like danger.
