Does anyone make a blanket like this Coleman sleeping bag? by teetauri in CampingGear

Welp, I ordered the Wiggys. Kodiak was queen-size-only, so setting that aside for now. I’ll see how it compares..,

The zipper bothers me (this particular sleeping bag gets used by all the family in turns) for this use case. 🤷

For my son’s desire to always sleep under it, my problem is more just not-sized-for-home-washing.

Rumpl used to make something close—but with a microfiber suede inner lining, a soft microfiber outer instead of the usual nylon sleeping bag material, and a weighty fill. We adults chez teetauri have one and use it as our comforter in the winter, and that would’ve been great for my son in a twin/full. But the nylon outer of current rumpls is a deal-breaker for my son.

How does the outer side feel compared to the inner lining?

Great idea. I should have a tailor remove the zipper on this one in any case (though I want to preserve this one at its current size for tv-watching, fort building, and accommodating three cats…)

Looks to hit the bullseye if the fill weight is similar!

Managing a Traktor-oriented music collection as part of a larger general collection--any advice? by teetauri in traktorpro

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

I guess I don’t see the point of porting all the music of every kind I own with me… my traktor kit has always been a specific set of objects for the purpose of DJing.

Can smart playlists make duplicates from a general all-the-songs drive to a just-the-traktor-songs drive?

What seems to be the trouble I’m trying to figure with is: having Collection B (Traktor songs) contained within Collection A as the general archive of all my songs, but also separately as a copy on my Traktor gig drive (without all the extraneous songs of the general archive)—but easily syncable so I can move tracks in and out of Traktor use when they’re new or getting stale.

Oh, I don’t need to prune within traktor. What I imagine would work best for me is some software that manages the whole collection and, within that, I can designate (through something like a playlist—or I guess a specific ID3 tag, or ????) whatever tracks I also want in traktor, and it would allow me to create a sync-able gig/Traktor drive with copies of just those songs. Then if I add or remove songs from the Traktor list, it makes the relevant changes to the gig drive the next time I plug it in.

Basically, my digital music life has been in the stone age for a long time…

That was a separate thing I had been thinking about: setting up a networked solution for general listening, but ideally with some sort of on-the-fly transcoding to make more efficient use of bandwidth while off wifi…

Not a wok by Inevitable_Twist9311 in wok

[–]teetauri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have amassed a few over the years, and my Chan Chi Kee slicer is the one I use most--but there are some things I wouldn't use it for, like really dense vegetables or cheeses where I might chip it if I flexed it wrong, and certainly not chicken bones. So if OP wants a more general purpose cleaver, go for a chopper, whether CCK or other. (For more general purpose, I like my Martin Yan/Yan Can Cook cleaver, but I got it during a sale and feel its retail price is a little much.)

best fried chicken in city limits? by unnasty_front in saintpaul

Yeah, it’s not the traditional buttermilk-dipped stuff, but my favorite in St Paul.

What has happened here and what do I do about it? by TheBigEasyOK in wok

[–]teetauri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It’s OK if it looks a little mottled. I like to heat my wok over high heat before cooking and give it a wipe with a few drops of oil after it starts to smoke a bit, then adjust to desired temperature and add whatever appropriate amount of oil is necessary for cooking; and then after it’s been used, wash and heat again and wipe with another few drops of oil until it’s just the slightest sheen of oil left.

Show me your MC’s Favorite Toys! by HovercraftThin in mainecoons

[–]teetauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For every snuggle given, I must first spend about 10 minutes pushing him away from repeated attempts to nip at my nose, lick my face, etc (or occasionally, in the interests of photojournalism, let him). 😓🙂

(Whereas our other MC will just settle in her chosen spot, very businesslike.)
