Could have been.

Walker discusses this in the book. It was a thing in, IIRC, Renaissance through Victorian era Europe (and maybe early colonial America, I don't remember) but has not been documented anywhere else. It...

Bunion--that's rebound insomnia. Tapering off will minimize the effect.

Slooow roll with a mic-drop finish.

Minimum 7 hours, 8-9+ is better. There are some people that have a genetic mutation that allows them to get as little as 6 hours without deleterious effects, but you are more likely to be hit by...

On the weed thing, the current evidence seems to indicate that THC does not negatively impact testosterone production:

Bingo. Christ, look at how hard it's been to get people just to wear masks in public places. Those same people are suddenly going to start exercising and eating vegetables at the behest of the...

There's a popular notion that, despite previously failing spectacularly, a big PR push aimed at getting people to live healthier lives would be successful now because people are afraid of COVID. I'm...

January 19, 2021 will go down in history as the day the greatest science headline in history--past, present or future--was published:

Posts like this are the reason I stick around here. Awesome.

Winning run was sick as hell considering the conditions.

This is actually required by law and applies to all sweepstakes/giveaway stuff. Could still be rigged, though.

Bump #2

5/5, nails it for 47 minutes straight

It's about 3,500 vert.

1,050 is for "Transit" which in this alternative means gondola+bus service to the gondi base from satellite parking hubs. You'll have to talk to UDOT and Doppelmayr for firm answers about the...

For once, we're in complete agreement. What a time to be alive.

Socialism ;)

They have lots of nice things in Yurp that we aren't allowed to have (universal healthcare, high-speed trains, AWD MT diesel wagons, quality food) for stupid-ass reasons. But, in...

La Caille base station gondola is 1,050 ppl/hr: https://littlecottonwoodeis.udot.utah.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/9234_45_LCC_Alternative_Factsheets_Gondola_La_Caille_11_20_2020_FIN.pdf

Thanks for the heads up, also a huge fan of his.

Hah, yeah, that pedestrian crossing has been a disaster.

There are tons of opportunities to incorporate nano workouts into your daily life. Need to pick up something off the floor? Either do a full squat or a straight-leg bend from the waist instead of...

I'm surprised there isn't a proposal to build a temple on top of the parking structure.



Yep.



2.2 miles vs. 8 miles is the issue. My armchair-expert understanding is that, on average,...

Shady developers, the Utah legislature, and the Olympics is the ultimate trifecta for corruption and graft.

Go read the EIS. UDOT says the gondola will move 1,050 people per hour, while the remaining 2,250 people per hour that need to go up the canyon during peak times will have to travel in private...

Buckwheat waffle morning. Four down, about 20 more to go.

Shit, saw this too late. Good luck all!

Was texting with an industry friend and asked him how the supply chain situation was for them:

"It's beyond crazy. We made a brake order in early November and we won't see the order until May. Raw...

Perpetually living in the thermo-neutral zone, at best, does you no favors. Temperature stress creates a hormonal response similar to exercise but without the wear-and-tear.

Last statement is the...

I'm fully prepared for things to go downhill in hurry after 40, though I do take really good care of myself. I'm kind of over riding lifts anyways since it's become such a junkshow here. At this...

I'd happily take loss of their FAA license in lieu of jail time.

Me: 38, can still ski like I did at 28, though I get a lot fewer days/runs in due to the normal middle-aged family- and career-related reasons. I've had to dial it back on the bike due a bad crash...

I never heard the follow-up on that. Glad to hear they faced some kind of consequence, even if it didn't materially affect them.

Hey now, Peyote is a fine upstanding member of Kingdom Plantae that would never voluntarily associate with that asshole.

Hard to comment on this without something specific to reference. He definitely goes straight to the n^th level on whatever he's discussing. When he and Lex Fridman get together it can be hard to...

Fair enough. But, I can tell you with certainty that Weinstein having "no regard for most of society out of their Burning Man invitee list" is dead wrong.

I've listened to quite a few hours of interviews with Weinstein and that's not how I'd characterize him at all. For starters he's not a billionaire: ...

Well that bodes well for all the new trail they're going to build out there....

I'm anti-death penalty, but my conviction is wavering.

Also:

I wonder what all that cost in mid-80s dollars? Versus what a smartphone that costs $400 in 2020 dollars can do. Hell, the pic doesn't even include GPS which had yet to exist. What a time to be...

That definitely looks a lot different than the last time I was there. Tubeless is mandatory, that place is like the goathead mothership.

Nigeria?

Heh.

"Think of the kids!"

"OK, let's raise taxes to better fund schools and pay teachers more."

"Fuck no, teachers are overpaid already and more money won't fix what's wrong with public...

Heh, worth it for the couch hauling alone. Couch has been awesome, BTW.

Found a killer deal on a F150 FX4. Super clean, 97,000 miles and a matching topper, paid $7,100 out-the-door with tax, title, etc. Drives great, love it. I've put about 30k on it and besides...

Sorry, GL, hope you can ride this out.

Maybe not quite $50k, but way more than the truck is worth for sure (though it is damn clean and low miles for an '02).

It's not uncommon for me to have 6-7 bikes back there.

But it will make you less likely to notice it.

Can't sling bikes over the tailgate of a minivan. Though, tailgates on late-model trucks are so thick they've pretty much ruined them for this purpose. Good thing I drive an '02 :fmicon:

UHP says there are credible threats against Utah elected officials and state properties, 2021 legislative session will be completely online: ...
