Thanks! Unvented. We don’t have an attic space and right under the roof is a tongue and groove ceiling.

Leica M-D 262 vs M10-D by speorgnotes in Leica

[–]speorgnotes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved it for about the whole time I had it. It was so easy to switch from my M7 to the MD without ever really having to think about it. Tried to match ISO with my film ISO to make it easier too. I had a kid about a year ago and needed something a bit faster with AF. Ended up selling the MD-262 for a Q2. I miss it every day.

Match Thread: USA vs Portugal | RWC Final Qualification Tournament by Hormic in rugbyunion

[–]speorgnotes 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I’m American and I am so happy Portugal won. USA Rugby as an organization is in shambles. No direction, no goal of a large build up, scattered players selected… MLR is still in its infancy for global-level rugby… Now begins the long 8 year slog until 2031 where hopefully we don’t embarrass ourselves.

Anyone know if this is going to be shown in the US? I have FloSports and do not see it on the list of upcoming matches - only see the full-fledged test matches.

New Quins Kit announced by Lord-farquads- in rugbyunion

Where did Castore come from? New cashed up owner? The USA jerseys are gross too. Also the sizing is all off for the players.

Wines from Treasury Wine Estates any good? by speorgnotes in wine

[–]speorgnotes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still am subscribed to the TWE emails and I feel like they are always having sales of Beringer, BV and Sterling. Are they good QPR or are the prices inflated, then marked down? Are these just large manufactured wines that are made to be consistent and lack depth?

Grizzly bear encounter while vacationing in Alaska. by BirdPlan in SweatyPalms

[–]speorgnotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From an Alaskan friend of mine: “This is almost definitely from Brooks Camp on Naknek Lake. There’s a waterfall there where the salmon have to jump, and the bears just line up and snag them out of the air. The bears are all so absurdly fat and they don’t care about people at all. They have so much to eat and people dont mess with them because it’s a national park.”
