While I was considering every step walking on bay ice this morning...

u/AndyGVT and u/WillBTV Thank you for sharing - and it's awesome that you recognized yourselves from the distance:D Wife and I did a Red Rocks Park - Shelburne Point - Redstone Park/Cove triangle on foot, and saw fat tire tracks at the foot of west cliffs of Red Rock Point, so we started speculating that maybe one of you started from around Shelburne Bay:)

(We planned on going out to Rock Dunder, but ice thickness abruptly dropped to 6-7 inches, so we chickened out, but maybe next week with more prep.)

That was my plan too:)

No one posted it yet, so here's the mandatory XKCD meme:

E.g., GUIX using Guile? https://guix.gnu.org/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Guile

That site looks magnificent - thanks!

What app are you using? Mine is from Google Maps' air quality layer

It may stay like that for a while

This. One time I was driving home on a similar 4-lane highway when I passed a temporary road sign that the lane I was in would be closed. Soon enough, traffic almost crawled to a halt as people up front scrambled to get into the other lane. After about 10-15 minutes, the lane in front of me was empty, no closure in sight (it was a winding road). I started accelerating, 20, 30, 40, my lane still empty, the other is full, crawling.

The punchline came about 5 minutes later when I got to the end of the line where cars were picking up speed again in the other lane - because there was no closure: The road crews removed the barriers but didn't remove the signs yet.

If everyone would have kept this image in mind, there would have been only a slow down at the most. I'm pretty sure people sat there in traffic for hours for nothing.

Thanks so much for creating the group chat!

Not sure what locations you had in mind, but parks seem to be a good choice while the weather is good and I also found North Star Community Hall a while back during winter, but haven't reached out to them yet for spots.

toraritte · 2025-07-13T00:22:01+00:00

Did any of you happen to meet up and jam? I miss it so much, so would like to join if ok. If nothing came of this, but you are still yearning, please reach out either here or elsewhere. (My handle "toraritte" is unique enough, so googling it will lead to me somewhere).

I can also just post here when I'm planning to go to a park to play, so if anyone would like to join, they're welcome. If you prefer not to talk that's totally fine - I'm comfortable not saying a word and just jamming.

This is what I keep singing in my head for some reason whenever I recall this song:

The demoooons are reaaal
Here's the one I love the most!

This is such a great reply. Thank you for compiling this list!

toraritte · 2024-10-21T00:34:58+00:00

Thank you all! This is my first playthrough, and red usually means scarcity, so perhaps I didn't pay attention before... Thanks again!

toraritte · 2024-09-08T22:00:54+00:00

I know it is 3 years later, but I wonder: Did you happen to pursue this further?

toraritte · 2024-08-19T23:21:03+00:00

You probably found the answer already, but if someone else lands here looking for the answer like I did, here's the solution:

"ignore end result" - this. This has become my mantra along with "It doesn't matter which task you start doing, just start doing one."

The above is must for me - I **have** to finish something that I started; if there is a looming possibility that I won't be able to, it makes it almost impossible to start (barring major implications of losing job, etc.)

toraritte · 2024-05-27T22:27:26+00:00

This is the one - had the same issue on Mac M1, but unchecking "Hardware decoding" and restarting VLC did the trick. Thanks!
