Say more about shoulder harness? I think that's what I'm looking for...
All of the interior will be visible - the purpose is to make a 2 dimensional frame for my face, so don't even need the rest of the box if I can figure out how to suspend the frame
One year I went as a kelp forest, with helium balloons holding up the kelp. God Damn helium balloons are insulating!
How To? Hands free box on head
I'm making a Halloween costume that features my head inside a box. All good if In use my hands to support said box, but I'd like my hands to be free.
This seems like a solved problem, got any hints on how I might support the box so its stable while leaving my arms and hands free?
"...police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added."
Am I a joke to you?
La Quinta?
Needs fossilized banana for scale...
My main question is: what automates pushing new content to my Plex libraries and kicking off a library scan?
Seems like there are lots of apps that do similar things (monitor trackers for example). I just need one that moves content from \Data\Torrents\ to Plex:\movies and tickles it enough to trigger a scan.
Does Overseerr do this?
Interesting. Ombi means I don't have to run docker. How do you like it?
Derp. Corected typo. Bike box. But, yeah I am considering taking the box for a spin too...
I couldn't bring myself to spend hundreds on a bike box, at least not without more travel on the horizon. So card board it is. But... Wheels sound nice. So, I got some castors and trimmed some spare 2x6 and now... Wheels!
Ghetto bike box - now with wheels

I just saw mangosteen in Chinatown Manhattan... First time seeing them in the us!!
Seattle year round commuter. For my current short commute: a rain cape (poncho).
- it's comfortable to wear both wet and dry
- easy on/easy off. Less fucking around trying to get geared up.
- I don't sweat through my clothes because it ventilates like crazy
So many more reasons, but good lord those 3 are reason enough. Putting on still-wet gear at the end of the day is nasty.
I also wear rain-legs. I wear wool socks and sneakers (1 less piece of wet gear to deal with). No gloves (cape deals with the rain and wind).
Tent footprint: exterior hem or not?

Hello Making Friends
I am making a footprint for a tent from tyvek: should I hem the exterior so that the fabric folds over from the top side and is sewn (or taped) to the underside? What about adding gromets?
I am thinking that the hem would keep ground water from seeping between the tent and foot print if it were to rain.
I am also thinking this is too much work for very little benefit, and an unfinished edge is simple, easier, and just as durable (this is freaking House wrap).
Thoughts?
Good questions. I own priorities, my team owns operation. Fixing this is on our list of priorities, not high enough to get the amount of attention needed to really fix it.
We have 3 (three. Three!!) redundant monitoring and alerting systems and have yet to detect the issues routinely found by our customers. Its not because we didn't detect them, it's because we have so many false positives we stopped looking (but still run the monitors).
Uuuuuugffhhhhhj
Red hot rebar headed downstream at 40mph - holy shit!
There is a steel mill (recycling plant) in my town. They give tours every Friday. I have been 3 times, twice with teams of (software) engineers.
If you want to go see what engineering means when lives are on the line, tour a steel mill. Fucking amazing.
I really loved Ubik when I first read it. Good read for sure. Later readings made me think it was a bit pulpy, but that might have just been the cheap paperback edition I read from. I'll have to give it another shot.
fixed: New and strange home button behaviour - how to fix?
On my pixel 6 the home button returns me to my home screen, or it used to. Recently, if I am on a google search (from the home screen google search widget), home does nothing.
I'm expecting it to return me to the home screen - that's what it does on a pixel 7.
I don't think I've made any changes to cause this, any idea how to get it back?

2 broken spokes - 50 miles from home
Am I right to be annoyed that I have two broken spokes after having a reputable shop fix 1 broken spoke a few days ago?
I'm out doing a tour, tomorrow is the last big day - 45ish miles. The rear end felt a little squidgey coming out of the woods this evening. I figured I was low on air but No! Two new broke spokes (rear wheel, drive side, broke off in the J bend, holes are right next to each other).
I got to practice using a fiber fix - and truth be told we aren't really doing anything rough, so I imagine things will be fine. But... Dang, I wish the shop would have told me the tension was off and I was going to break more - I would have brought another fiber fix!

Some friends and me out rolling around Vancouver island. Here we are headed out of Victoria to Duncan. Really nice, relaxed riding most of the way.
out on tour, skipped wine tasting
I'm out rolling around Victoria with some friends, one is a wine buyer. He got the good local stuff for the gang to try. I really wanted some, just a bit... Decided to pass.
I thought Neko Case was bigger

Gotta be a pretty early bird to get close at zoo tunes. Nice to see some music outside!
trouble logging in to reddthat?
I am trying to login at reddthat.com/login using both my email address and username - no dice, just a green spinny icon endlessly.
I've tried on my phone (duck browser) and on desktop chrome. Tried incognito mode - no change. Infact, I dont get any response even with known bad credentials.
In Devtools - I don't even see a call being made to the server.
I think Incognito rules out any plugins - any idea what might be up?
