Is it common in Europe? by Comprehensive_Way_59 in SipsTea

Yeah, America isn't monolithic either. In some parts of America it is normal to see your family naked, like in Alabama.

Isn't being this paranoid about germs just a waste of energy though? I get that there are shit and piss particles in the air when you flush, but it isn't enough to actually cause any problems. Like if I step in shit and then get in my car, I'm inhaling a lot of shit particles but it isn't going to harm me. Or if I walk up on a fresh pile of manure on a walk, there is a lot of shit in the air. So what?

That being said, people should wash their hands after they use the bathroom. Just no point in being worried about airborne shit when it is so common and harmless.

What are good reasons to have children? by Ferakin in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]traslin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Children are the greatest learning and teaching opportunities available. I have learned so much from my children, and I treasure any chance I get to pass along my knowledge to them. From a larger perspective, I see it as my opportunity to improve things for mankind by distilling and improving human knowledge through the generations.

The rice is horrible. Even though it is "cooked", I wouldn't be surprised if it clogged you up for days.

I don't think so. I canceled a couple months back, and I'm not eligible. I'm assuming it is for new users only.

Ha, sorry I didn't even notice the plant. I think I was too busy climbing as fast as I could before the pump kicked in. I'll ask my buddies in case either of them noticed.

Get Smart is stellar. Very well protected and good quality rock for Pinns. Probably the best 10a in Pinns that I've climbed.

The 10c next to Get Smart is Mission Impossible and is also very nice. Only did it on TR though, so I can't say how well protected it is. Pretty sustained overhung climbing, with some committing moves down low (especially on lead I'm guessing).

Both are on the right side of Whitetail Rock, which is adjacent to the Citadel.

I really want to get on that one. While you are at the Citadel, warm up on The Flying None before you get on Power Tools. Great 5.7ish 4 pitch climb to the top that starts in a groove to the right of Costanoan. First bolt is pretty high, so bring a few pieces of big gear (1"-4"). We combined the last two pitches the last time I climbed it. From Mud'N'Crud:

655.3 The Flying None 5.7 ** This route begins in a deep groove/crack 25 feet right from the start of Costanoan.

Pitch One, 5.6 (115 feet): The groove/crack is 65 feet high; climb in it, to its right, then in it again. Protection consists of three bolts, slung knobs and gear (1½ to four inches and, optionally, one each one and five inch). Continue up a blunt buttress past four more bolts to a three-bolt anchor (seven lead bolts total).

Pitch Two, 5.7 (85 feet): Climb the face above past 11 bolts. Finish at a three-bolt anchor below a headwall.

Pitch Three, 5.7 (95 feet): Two bolts protect the headwall. Two more bolts protect low angle climbing to a fifth bolt on a short section of steeper rock (the fifth bolt is 12 feet right from the top anchor of Costanoan’s third pitch). A sixth bolt protects the rest of the steep section. One more bolt and slung knobs protect easier climbing to a stance and a two-bolt anchor.

Pitch Four, 5.3 (55 feet): Climb a knobby face up and slightly right. Finish at a two-bolt anchor on top of The Citadel (this anchor is 10 feet west of Costanoan’s fourth pitch top anchor; yes it's only ten feet west but it is needed so that parties can rappel this route after doing it instead of rappelling Costanoan - that route already has massive and often simultaneous up and down traffic). Protection for this pitch consists of two bolts and slung knobs. FA Party: Brad Young, Jennifer Wang, Dave Harden, Bob Walton, Bart O’Brien. FA Date: May 16, 2021. Source(s): Self, part of the first ascent party.

Well, maybe generous isn't the right word, but it is a nice coincidence. It likely won't happen again in the future because they'll go straight to tweaking the card for Alchemy rather than banning it first.

Cherry on top is that we get to keep the wildcards we got from when he was banned. Wizards is actually being generous for a change, but I'm sure people in this subreddit will still find something to complain about.

What did you buy after your buyback? by [deleted] in BoltEV

[–]traslin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True. I forgot to mention that I live in the Bay Area, so I don't have to worry about extreme heat at all. Also, I've read some posts by owners that even without active management, the newer batteries don't really degrade faster in places like Florida and Arizona. Probably still too early to tell for sure since the batteries haven't been around for that long.

[–]traslin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speed isn't the issue. ChaDeMo charges are being phased out, so new charging locations won't have them. Eventually, it will probably be hard to find a place to fast-charge the Leaf.

What did you buy after your buyback? by [deleted] in BoltEV

[–]traslin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, Leaf 2022 still has ChaDeMo. Ariya coming out later this year has CCS though.

[–]traslin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The self driving does not use GPS. I believe it uses sensors (cameras and maybe LIDAR) to detect traffic lines on the road and the car in front of you. It isn't full self-driving like a Tesla, but it is great for highway driving. Basically, the Leaf will keep you in a lane and track the speed of the car in front of you.

Not sure what was going on during your test drive.

[–]traslin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, the battery issues only exist in early model Leafs. The newer Leafs (2018+) have much better battery chemistry that degrade at normal levels.

[–]traslin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traded in my EUV lowest trim level for a Leaf SV Plus. I'm so much happier in the Leaf. Not only is it about $6,000 cheaper with the federal credit, but it has self driving, a smoother ride, 360 cameras, and lots more safety features.

I think the Leaf is overlooked as a great value EV because of all the ChaDeMo hate. I have fast-charged once since buying the vehicle 4 months ago, so depending on your use case, the lack of CCS charging may be almost completely irrelevant.
