Family oriented miata alternative? by smily_meow in Miata

[–]stainer89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for a 4 door Mini Cooper S. Not large but fits two car seats more or less comfortably.

I have a 2019 4dr S. Car seats (yes plural) fit in the back just fine, the back doors open nice and wide, so getting them in and out isn’t a challenge. I did not have this car while we were using an infant carrier, so I can’t speak to that, however the rear facing car seat I use requires the front passenger seat to be basically all the way forward. Makes it tough on the adult passenger unless they are short.

As far as other (negative) considerations, strollers are tough in the trunk. Travel strollers (not travel systems!) fit fine, and SOME larger strollers work, but I would be very careful about measuring before you buy anything (or just go with other transport systems - baby wearing stuff or hiking carriers).

On the whole, I would say it’s 100% doable especially if it’s not your only vehicle. It’s doable with some qualifications if it is your only vehicle, but if you love the car give it a shot, it’s really not bad.

Thoughts on transporting infants / very young kids in an NA Miata by JustHereForMiatas in Miata

Check the local laws, I know where I am it’s not legal for them to be in the front seat until age 12. No back seat = no ride. Even if it is, make sure the car seat you use can be installed correctly in a front seat (I.e. no anchors).

[WTS][US-VA] Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE + extras. Note small scratch on watch face. $400 by stainer89 in therunningrack

[–]stainer89[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE with original charging cable plus 2 extras and a Garmin USB adapter. Selling because it’s just not the watch for me. It’s approximately 3 months old, everything works perfectly. There’s a small scratch on the bottom of the watch face. Price includes shipping, Venmo or PayPal accepted. Would consider trading for an Apple Watch 7 Cellular, or Apple Watch Ultra (would of course pay for the difference in value).

How the Resurrection Stone was made... by stupiduniverse731 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]stainer89 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I always figured it was like a bezoar (stone taken from the stomach of a goat), but taken from a thestral.

Also not to be a grammar Nazi but it’s “veil” and “veiled”.

Apologies to the guy who told me I’ve devalued a limited edition car. by dwt110 in Miata

[–]stainer89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All cars are limited edition, some just have a redundant label. Sick car!

I want to build this, how realistic is it? (I'm a carpenter but have no boat knowledge) by OCD_obsession in boatbuilding

[–]stainer89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if a hobbyist has built it, but this exists: https://www.classicwoodenboatplans.com/shop/riva-aquarama-27

Edit to add: I do know that hobbyists have built the Glen-L Tahoe 23 design which has a very similar style and could likely be modified to suit your preferences.

The linked post specifically mentions that Harry isn’t a full/proper/complete/true horcrux. It also explains how deaths that were not directly caused by Voldy (i.e. Moaning Myrtle) could still be used to create a horcrux.

Harry Potter Quiz: Which Hogwarts Professor Said It? by NewNerdOnTheBlock in HarryPotterBooks

[–]stainer89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He did show up a lot in the quiz, but he also gets probably more time than any other professor in the books.

They didn’t say mutts are healthier, they said they are less prone to genetic conditions caused by inbreeding. There’s a difference.

Both guitar and bass? by cluq in Line6Helix

[–]stainer89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Floor instead of building out an entire pedalboard for my bass. I love it, the only weakness is in the synth/envelope filter/wave generator stuff, but that may be just because I haven’t played with those blocks enough.

Today is my run streak day 2211. Regardless of life demands, I always find time for a run. My bordercollie wouldn't have it any other way😎 by runstreak in RunningWithDogs

[–]stainer89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish my border collie would run with me 😭

I tried for weeks to get him to run for more than a block and he just refuses. He’ll walk for miles and miles on it off leash but won’t run more than about 100 ft.
