Hello,

Our scheduled cat sitter for our camping trip this weekend just suddenly cancelled the day before we're hoping to leave.

I know it's a long shot, but does anybody know a good cat-sitter near Bevo who may have last-minute availability?

We just have two Cats with simple needs, but my closest family is a 35 minute drive one way, which totally borks our camping trip.

Thank you!

Hey Everyone!

I'm coming back to the hobby after a while, and after taking my BNF tinyhawk out again, it's like riding a bike :).

But looking around, there's so many upgrades and better gear available like higher quality cameras.

I'm not really looking to buy a "better, newer" drone yet, until I settle back into the hobby, but to get my feet wet, are there any "must have" upgrades for the little guy by now? I'm very comfortable with soldering and modifying boards and designing 3D prints.

I'm currently running a BNF Tinyhawk 1, EV800D goggles, and a Taranis QX7

Here are some of the upgrades I've heard about and am interested in:

  1. New frame, lighter? more traditional layout?
  2. Impr

Hello r/kites

I've bumped into some cool videos of peolpe flying and singing the praises of dual line stunt kites. They look super fun, and seem like a perfect companion hobby for my micro FPV drone, for when the wind gets a bit much.

My issue is I'm stuck between a few beginner friendly options, and not really sure which way to go.

My Main Choices are: Very affordable:

HQ Bebop Prism Nexus OKS Usa Barracuda
Prism Synapse*

These are all in the ideal price range, as it'd be nice to avoid spending $100 or more on a 'try it'.

Stretching my budget:

Prism Quantum Prism Hypnotist

I understand the Synapse is a foil style kite, which is quite different, but I'm not sure I'm goi

First, I've read through the wiki, and it's lacking any information on step feeding besides acknoledging its existence (does not even mention TBE nutrient schedule).

  1. I started a mead at 1.125 SG, and it fermented down to 1.080.

  2. I step-fed it & added water to bring the SG back to 1.121, and it's fermented back down to 1.070

Am I correct in adding up 'consumed' SG? .045 consumed in step 1, and .050 consumed in step 2.

Am I correct in assuming that the current must is at 12.5% (1.095 to 1.000 in the calculator)?

if that is true, why do calculators suggest the SG should be 1.141 for 12lb of honey in 3 gallons, while I've consumed .095 SG & still have 1.105 SG in the must? That w

Hello r/mead!

I'm preparing to embark on my first brew, and I have what seems to be a pretty odd recipe in mind.

Basically, I'm hoping to achieve a sack mead between 17%-20%. I understand that such a high ABV poses challenges, but my high level plan is basically:

  • fement a 5 gallon batch dry with EC-1118 & rather cheap honey (likely from costco, I'm sure you know the one)
  • use the TBE staggered nutrient schedule in order to help get the ec-1118 to near/ just past its tolerance.
  • sous-vide pasteurize to stabalize in the carboy, so it can settle for a few days
  • back sweetening the batch to a semi-sweet FG with a more premium honey before bottling for final rest

Some question I had w

This issue is on my 2003 Acura RL 3.5 w/ 213K miles

Noise Example

The example is at 60 mph and the noise happens between 0:22 - 0:14 seconds remaining (imgur only gives time remaining).

The car makes a high pitched, grinding/sqeaking noise with a light pulsation over 50mph. The car will drive 'normally' for several minutes, then for 7-20 seconds make the noise, which seems to sort of 'swell' in intensity, then suddenly return to normal. It seems to be coming from the front driver wheel. It does not change if I sharply change lanes while it's happening, trying to load/unload the wheel bearing to check.

I just finished replacing my Lower Control Arms, Sway Ba

I don't know if anyone saw the post about the WeWork manager but where is this surge of pro business people coming from? It seems like most people feel that being let go from one job is somehow complete penance and carte blanche for making dozens of people's lives hell for months, threatening their income, and sexually abusing them?!

Some of these people are even calling OP a "jerk" like they have no idea what WeWork is and the sexual abuse that was taking place. Just because OP used a joking tone when talking about warning the abusing manager's next employer (about potential liability, a
