    wtf, have you only had bad mealy pears? A good pair is an amazing thing. Edit: not fixing it.

    OFFICIAL THREAD: General Cookery and Discussion

    Was in Mexico City this past week. Had a tarragon pastry on a whim at Panadería Rosetta. Holy fúck I think it was the best pastry I’ve ever eaten. You’d think it would be savory, but it was an actually sweet. A sweet flaky pastry flavored with tarragon. **** that thing was good. Went there...

    The Official Skiing / Snowboarding / Playing in the Snow Thread

    Ooof. I'm glad whitefish isn't busy like that. You could get that kind of wait for the high speed chair on the backside on a busy day where the frontside conditions suck... ...but even then my favorite chair almost never has any wait, serves interesting terrain, and is literally just a 500'...

    The Official Skiing / Snowboarding / Playing in the Snow Thread

    Yeah, I racked up mega vert Saturday by skiing the fastest vert-per-minute chair all morning. In some ways off-piste is almost faster as you are closer to the fall line (especially if there are crowds or the groomers get chopped up). Not that it was intentional, the skiing was just fantastic...

    The Official Skiing / Snowboarding / Playing in the Snow Thread

    I accomplished my goal of being the top skier with my name by 28k feet and pushed the needle above 600k vert (although both of those are really meaningless as they only count pass scans which doesn't always happen on upper-mountain chairs). What I find a bit interesting is that 600k puts me...

    Cars We Drive!

    If I had the ability to add a lidar sensor to my face, I would 100% use it…especially since there are a lot of conditions where my eyes don’t do that great of a job.

    Yeah, I refuse to accept that partial height cabinets are anything besides builder cost cutting. Less cabinets to build, less demand for custom fit cabinetry built on site. Maybe builders did it enough that some people started to think it was normal and chose it themselves, but it is a...

    Closing weekend storm has materialized: Rain in town must be keeping everyone home and thin cover is keeping the rest off the south facing front side. Been skiing lines like this nonstop and gliding right onto the chair with the minor cost of picking my way through 1-200’ of sketchy cover...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    Decided it was past time replace the ~2011 road helmet, so I ordered a bunch of different ones (nothing I tried on locally fit well). I think the winner for my head shape is the Giro Helios Spherical Helmet. It uses a super cool Mips variant they call "ball and socket" where instead of having...

    Deciding whether I should enter the closing day pond skim in my full size chicken suit On one hand, I've never done one and would like to and it hasn't sold out yet. On the other hand we've got potential for a powder day on closing day...and I honestly don't want to give up half a day of...

    At least in this situation, the plumber probably could have fixed it (if he'd found the obstruction), tightened up the leaking p trap, and asked Joffrey for $200 which he probably would have paid without complaint. Trying to upsell a full replacement on a later date seems like a worse deal than...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    In a similar vein to the trainer...I also didn't accomplish anything on the "winter bike maintenance list" I made for myself. Although that means that yesterday's XC ride was on my old wheelset so I will have more recent memories to compare when I switch everything over to my sexy carbon...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    Yeah, I cancelled zwift and think that I will switch to TrainerRoad as a way to still have structured workouts/training plans...but then just watch TV/Movies like I used to do when I had a set of rollers. Never really got into the Zwift stuff. I suppose it is a little more engaging to be...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    I should have tried a more rigid schedule or something, but I also found out that my wife is due (!!!) 2 days before the event I was intending to train for...so the "need" to get those training miles in is gone. Not that I wasn't still active over the winter. Skied 56 days so far this season...

    This is an entirely predictable outcome: I did not ride the trainer nearly as much as I intended to.

    Unless it is ancient, it seems like you should be able to buy one that is just plug and play.

    Gotta get those guys flying drones on the ski/board Freeride World Tour... Some of the FWT drone pilots seem to have forgotten that their goal is supposed to be getting good, stable, footage of the skiers...nobody wants to see how awesome their flying is, they want to to actually be able to see...
