    If Operation Mincemeat is done properly the smell in the first few rows should be horrible.

    Bike industry failing?

    My view is, there's no downside to NICA. From a MTB rider who wants to see a lot of mountain bikers I'd love it if the kids carry it into adulthood. But even if they never ride a bike again, there's no downside to them being on a team, riding, the competition etc etc. We just don't need to...

    Bike industry failing?

    But does it transition into more riders post-college? I think he's saying that yeah there's tons of NICA racers but the majority of them move onto other things. Which isn't really that weird, life gets in the way and priorities change. It's also one thing if you ride with NICA or Collegiate...

    The issue with most PTs is the same as GPs. They see everyone and deal with everything, not a lot of specifics. Most PTs have a revolving door of clients, most of them hurt themselves bringing the garbage out or whatever. Most only show up for a short bit and then drop out. Trick is to find a...

    How the hell are we supposed to retire?

    I was searching for some 401k info in my emails at work and when we were looking at different 401k providers someone asked us to look at their family member that worked at some company. Leaving out the person/company info, I found these fees hilarious. Obviously we did not go with them.

    Have you seen actual PTs for the knees or just self diagnosis?

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    You're not wrong. At least you have a chance to duck as opposed to a sucker punch after being sweet talked.

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    I was telling Utah separately that I kind of like the transparency of this administration. Look at the lies it took to get everyone to accept the Weapons of Mass Destruction bullshit for invading Iraq. For Venezuela it's "We're blowing up their ships because of Narco-Terrorism. Ah fuck it, we...

    Can leave them on 24/7/365 and it wouldn't be noticable compared to pool pumps, furnace fans, A/C etc. 100W equivalent LED bulbs use around 13W. 10 of them would maybe draw 1A. 100 of them would draw less power than a space heater.

    Does it make sense to look at the incoming feed vs actual circuits? Incoming feed will tell you total usage and times it goes up or down but aren't you interested in looking at individual circuits? Do they offer additional clamps and inputs so you can move it around different circuits, like...

    Does the heat pump give you energy usage info on it's display if you have one? Maybe the unit is set up to go to resistive heat under a certain temperature when the heat pump isn't efficient. That temperature setting can possibly be changed.

    Bike industry failing?

    It's really hard to stay with it if you have a rough/wet summer and then that moves into a wet or icy winter. Depending on where you live the after-work riding if you aren't near a good park can be really hard as traffic is a major issue so in some ways you're really relying on good weather on...

    That must have been one hell of a crash.

    Car-spotting thread

    Do they feel sadness and wishing a little they were dead? Do they pull their bumper up enough to not allow in the car next to them? If they do, I'm sure they excel at the "do not make eye contact" part. Otherwise they aren't taking over yet for sitting in that traffic at night waiting to get...
