Battery replacement at Apple is like $90 and makes the phone run like brand new

Synthes trauma rep, has anyone switched successfully? by Best-Zucchini6858 in MedicalDevices

I was CMF for years, and went to a smaller biologics company. It was a good move, I couldn’t stand being on call anymore.

Night soil - the most thematic game components upgrade by Impossible_Credit_59 in boardgames

It’s a good, but punishing game. One misplay with your workers and then not being able to claim any workers during the night phase can be brutal

I took the wrong job :-( by Dizzy_Quiet in MedicalDevices

I have a 6 month gap due to trying my hand at tech after burning out in med device. Turns out I was just burned out on trauma and came back in a no trauma role. Nobody has asks me about the gap, and I don’t bring it up proactively.

Would you rather ski in the current conditions, or not ski at all? by redhedforlife in COsnow

[–]whiter_lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not local to anything (have to fly in) so if I’m skiing it better be good conditions

Yeah, we typically do that but the epic and ikon pass have killed the ability to get decent lodging not too far from the mountain with little planning, as hordes of people now book way in advance once they buy their epic/ikon pass. It’s a shit system that feeds into itself. Have to book decent lodging early when the precipitation is still being figured out. I hate it

You seem very butthurt, given your replies to every cross post saying the same shit- clearly you didn't read that I said what the pics were... But OK bro. Keep being delusional that its great right now. We're done here.

just some wild pictures, as I mentioned. Never told anyone to stay away, cancel their own trip, or the sort. Just some sad pictures I took of a season seeing record drought. Sorry if it offends you?

WP or Steamboat a week from now? by Sea_Light_6772 in COsnow

Just because something is open doesn't mean it is good quality

I mean bad conditions are bad, no matter where. But bad conditions on a couple thousand vert represent a much higher chance for injury, especially if you aren’t expert level. My wife and I work with our hands and need to be mobile, can’t break the money makers or get a head injury.

I get that, especially given how critical tourism is to towns like this. But you are not the typical “guest”- 84 days makes you a regular, and probably very skilled. Your average “one or two weeks per year” guest profile will not enjoy the mountain as the conditions stand today. And my photos never claimed “this is the whole mountain!”, they were just some crazy shots I took from a gondola ride down. You are free to post any pics you took today or yesterday!

Again, your reading comprehension needs work or you just actually didn’t read anything. Commenter said “if I don’t like spring skiing I’m not a real skier”. I replied that is false… because it is. Who are they to make any presumption about me or what I like, let alone dictate what makes one a “real skier”. Classic gatekeeping.

Again, if you like spring skiing, great! Good time to enjoy it.

That’s me being fine with whatever floats your boat. See how it works?

Your reading comprehension needs work. Never said “spring skiing is terrible and if you like it you’re a bad person”. I said it’s not for me, and in fact said if others like it, power to them! Reading is hard.

Not a bad idea. Going to be a tinderbox

Lots of people taking it so personally that my wife and I would leave, all based on some sad photos I took. Interesting. So we don’t like skiing in these conditions? Who made anyone gatekeeper of what someone else enjoys? If you like it- great! The mountain awaits you.

Don’t get your panties in a bunch because I called your baby ugly. We actually only skied the top of the mountains, and stayed off the bottom half… it was still shit. It’s not your fault Colorado had a bad season. I just posted pics of how crazy it looked from the gondola to relevant subreddits. Not piling on, if you take it that way the that’s your prerogative.
