    Saturday <insert emojis here>

    one upside of Baby Aya puking in the bunk room a few minutes ago is that while we clearly had to strip the bed and throw all that in the washing machine, we didn’t have to remake it. just shifted her to another already made bunk, and shifted Yuna before the whole cleanup process begun across the...

    Bow for a kid

    @Adventurous @eric strt6 and other bow-knowledgeable people: my 10 year old wants a bow and arrow setup. What would you recommend for her to plink away in the backyard at maybe 15-20 yd (toward the side of the house)?

    the official Toshi is reformed thread

    I have been informed by @Full Trucker that I have indeed become more crotchety and jerk-like in recent years. So let this be my public apology to all of you. Well, most of you. Some of you, perhaps. I will be less of a jerk-face in the future, and will not correct kidwoo's incorrect use of...

    Monkeys in Switzerland?

    @buckoW are you in Switzerland? Or is my European geography failing me? Any other monkeys? I found ski bindings I’ve been looking for (old color scheme preferable to new ugliness!) from a .ch site but they only ship to Switzerland…

    Alpine touring skis

    @Full Trucker @rideit @kidwoo @Jm_ and other ski-monkeys: what'd y'all recommend? I have no experience at all in this realm, alpine only for me in my 41 years thus far. My daily driver setup these days is Tecnica Ten.2 120, Look Pivot 14, K2 Mindbender 108 Ti fwiw. I'd rather have skis on the...

    Beating stevew to it for once up at this hour because Baby Aya needed extended snuggles after sundry complaints (first neck then leg). She may not be doing her all day lesson today, which has a whole secondary cascade of things for our schedule. That we had to re treat the house for swallow...

    Anyone an AirBNB landlord?

    Any of you all have experience in short term rentals? I'm set to close on a house in Tabernash (near Winter Park ski resort) at the end of April, and my homeowner's insurance actually works out to be a bit cheaper for the year if it allows for short term rentals, go figure. What other sorts of...

    +- sunDERP --*

    Front range ski traffic is so bad that I'm up at this hour to leave... :D (Actually up for ski-related issues, albeit local to this house related to various sicknesses and thus repacking a lesser quantity of ski gear into the Tesla instead of the minivan. At 2:30 in the morning. Gah.)

    iOS quote-highlight Reply button broken

    Issue that appears specific to iOS (or possibly Safari—not present on Chrome on desktop): When highlighting a portion of a post then one gets the two pop up options: Quote and Reply. The Quote button adds to the multi-quote and works. The Reply button appears to do nothing, contrary to its...

    Coffee for a n00b

    I think I’ll start drinking coffee, for health benefits. I’ve probably tasted it twice in my 37 year life. Hive mind, tell me how to do it right: what kinds of beans, grinding at home, French press? Or otherwise, etc.

    Grass fed (and other fancy) beef

    Anyone choose to eat grass-fed and -finished beef, as opposed to the usual corn- and soy-fed type? I gave it a try via Butcherbox and frankly wasn’t impressed relative to my baseline of USDA Prime grade ribeyes from Costco. Apparently this is common in that grass-fed beef has less marbling and...

    Creaking disc brakes

    The disc brakes on my commuter creak insanely loudly when coming to a stop. Braking before those last few mph is fine +/- not having much leverage unless one grabs low on the drop-bar brake levers, but the last bit is quite impressively loud. Always the same pitch, too. Setup is: - Soma...
