To be honest, I'm bad at this game and I'm sick of dying between around level 25. It feels like everyone is exclusively playing HC right now, though. Are there active communities on any non HC servers?

I'm interested in a low stress, pve-focused experience. I'm not interested in wotlk or retail

Suppose hypothetically you only have one weekend this summer to hit the WMNF, and suppose hypothetically the weather that weekend is looking rainy and foggy. Continue supposing (hypothetically) that you are feeling like you might as well bag some of the peaks that offer less excitement in terms of views, but maybe more excitement in the actual climb. Which peaks would you do?

I asked this in r/chessbeginners and got no responses. Here's the text of my original question:

I recently got Mark Esserman's book Mayhem in the Morra! and I've found the physical book format a pleasant way to learn. I'd like recommendations for similar books, where similar means

• About an opening or set of openings
• Accessible to beginners, but provides more in depth analysis too if you want it
• Explains thematic ideas in the opening
• The opening is somewhat off-beat, but theoretically solid

I am having a very frustrating experience installing Packer. The issue, I think, is that I have no idea what I'm doing. I am following the directions on the packer github page. I run the command

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/packer.nvim

No problem. Then I run

nvim +PackerSync

and I get the error, E492: Not an editor command: PackerSync. If I run :PackerCompile or :Packer<whatever> in Neovim, those give errors too.

After some googling, I am given to believe that I need to edit some kind of configuration file to make sure neovim knows Packer exists. The p

Ultramax is off. Auto-pause is off. Device is a COROS APEX with up to date firmware.

I've been having issues with the data logging on my watch during runs. It's giving large (often >30second) gaps between location readings. This is causing some weird issues when my activities are synced with Strava and rendering the device nearly useless to me.

• The issue occurs even when GPS signal is strong.
• It occurs everywhere I've been, including several cities both in North America and Europe
• It occurs irrespective of choice of satellite system (GPS, GLONASS, etc.)

Is my watch defective? Is there a setting I've missed? Does anyone have experience with this?

I'm having a weird problem that only occurs with Strava and it only occurs with my Coros watch. Strava is stripping a huge amount of activity time from my runs and making me out to be considerably faster than I am.

Here's an example from today

This is fairly mild compared to what I've been getting recently. A few weeks ago, Strava gave me a pace of 8s/mile on a segment.

As far as I can tell, the gps data from the Coros is accurate. It's accurate in the Coros app, and it's accurate on other websites like Runkeeper. On the other hand, if I use a non-Coros device, Strava gives me no issues.

Does anyone have experience with this? Any idea what's happening?

Are there any good places to run near campus that are flat? Besides a track/treadmill obviously. Even a flat 2 mile loop that I could circle a few times would be great. Preferably paved, but I'd take a nice trail too

Between like 47th and the loop. Traffic is at like a standstill. Wasn't construction over early this morning?

My home internet is extremely (<100kbps, get ~6mbps on other devices) slow on my home laptop and no other device (different laptop, phones, tablet)

It is slow over WiFi and when plugged directly into the router.

Rebooting the computer occasionally fixes the issue for a few hours, then it reappears.

Booting in safe mode fixes the issue completely while in safe mode.

The network performance graph in the task manager does not show any programs using the internet except the expected ones, and the displayed rate is consistent with what I'm seeing. For example, if I try to watch a YouTube video in Firefox it will say I'm at 20kbps total or something.

The issue occurs in all browsers (Firef

In a lot of hobbies/technical fields, a jargon develops to allow experts to easily communicate ideas to each other. This is usually a good thing, but sometimes the jargon gets out of control and obstructs communication rather than aiding it. I wonder if this is starting to happen in VX.

For example, I overhead a newbie talking to a veteran the other day and he asked what a bimodal pre-ionic vector radix was. The veteran responded that it's used in Angstrom field analysis and uses holomorphic image mapping. While technically correct, this is a pretty advanced answer and probably didn't help the newbie at all! What he should have said is that a bimodal pre-ionic vector radix is basically a QD

I've been roughly following the directions in How to Brew. I'm using the equipment from this kit.

My beer is currently fermenting in a bucket, and I'm going to siphon it into a bottling bucket (like with a spigot) for the actual bottling process. My question is: I have only one bucket lid (the one that came with the kit). Since I'll have two buckets in use simultaneously during the siphoning, where should I put the lid? (Should I buy another lid?)

More generally, when transferring between containers, how do you avoid having too much oxygen come into contact with the beer?
