Yo world I heard you like blockades so I added a blockade to your blockade…

The article focuses on the Rockies and Sierra Nevada. The situation is marginally better but still awful in the northwest. As of today in Washington state:

• Snowpack statewide is at 54% of normal, down 10% from last week. (“Normal” being the 30-year average for the calendar date)
• 115% statewide water year to date precipitation, up 2% from last week.

So slightly above-average precipitation this winter, but it was largely rain instead of snow. And the snow we do have is melting fast. The reservoirs are full, but their total volume is nothing in comparison to the snowpack.

Everyone I talk to is expecting a bad wildfire year and widespread water use restrictions.

Fun fact: The disease is named for Lyme, Connecticut, USA. That’s where it was first identified as a unique condition.

It’s common enough in the northeast and north-central US that my public schools taught everyone basic prevention and symptoms as part of the regular curriculum.

115 is an odd fork width. I think you mean the fork is spec’d to fit a 15x110mm “Boost” hub? And the hub on your front wheel is 15x100mm.

If that’s the case, you can definitely adapt the hub to fit the fork. You need two axle spacers, a 15x110mm axle, and a spacer to shift the brake disc into the correct position. Problem Solvers actually sells the spacers in a kit…

The real question is: where tf did you get a free Flight Attendant fork?!

Edit: if you really want to go down the rabbit hole and design your own spacers, SRAM publishes everything you need in their frame fit specifications:

For US Forest Service land, the USFS has an interactive online map that includes campgrounds. Though be aware that many of these are minimalist spots: no reservations, no running water or electricity, just a flat place to pitch a tent and a communal vault toilet.

French FORAD/OPFOR blue flecktarn is the sexiest camo. Practicality be damned.

Whatever, just don’t bring back UCP.

What?

It’s a constant game of whack-a-mole. Sometimes the automod catches them, sometimes we catch them manually, but some always slip through. Report them when you see them and we will do our best to keep up.

Here we are over a century later and this map correlates very well to the states I enjoy and states I avoid.

I’ve got my life to live, and all my love to give

No, we are not okay with hosting that content. Thank you for bringing it up. That is a newly created community within the past two days, and we had not noticed it yet. I have removed the community.

For transparency’s sake, I will mention that we have a !combatvideos@sh.itjust.works community which may include some gory content. In that case, the mods approached us before creating the community to discuss what it could contain and how it would be run. The admin team decided to allow it since there is arguably a public interest in documenting what our governments are doing.

“It puts the lotion on it’s skin…”

I love being in the city.

I love being in the middle of nowhere.

I hate the middle ground. The suburbs/exurbs combine the worst features of urban and rural living. Everyone is spread out enough to be car dependent, but still close enough to be in each other’s way.

On a related note, GWAR did an NPR Tiny Desk concert. It’s really… something.

It all depends on the landing. If he’s coming down onto a sloped ramp then it’s fine. But if it’s a hard landing to flat then both bike and rider are at risk of having a bad day.

My parents used cinnamon toothpaste. Vile stuff.

Look at Mr. System 6 over here! I grew up on System 7 myself.

I bet you were transferring all your files over the internet encoded in BinHex format, eh?

I was adding a second drive to a Windows desktop the other day and was tempted to assign it A:. I just couldn’t do it, though. It felt like I was violating some unspoken rule.
