After clearing driveway I drove to trailhead to snowshoe pack some fat biking trails. What's it look like trying to pack a foot of powdery snow? Here's the first pass.

#BikeTooterSecond packing pass "feels" easier, although it's probably nowhere near rideable yet except maybe downhill. Basically everything is shifted about 3-4" to the right so one foot is reinforcing center while other is slightly widening track.

#BikeTooterThird pass shifts the opposite direction, again making sure to re-pack the center line. Ideally you can find friends/family to join in and get the 2nd & 3rd part done in first pass.

#BikeTooterThe difference between one pass and a few.

#BikeTooter@jerzone Wow, that looks like a struggle to pedal through!!!

Nice sequence. Good workout! How long of a section did you pound out? -

@ai6yr Someone gave it a try. Looks like a sufferfest just getting to this area where it starts climbing, but that pretty much took the wind out of their sails and they slumped back to their car.

@jerzone Ha! That's SOOOO DEEP

@ai6yr I was wondering if they had an e-fat bike, most people don't make it that far with so much unpacked powder.

@stefano Sorry for the stress, hope the rest of 2026 only brings you cookies

Dear 2026, I believe I've already built up enough stress to last me until the end of the decade. Could you kindly tone it down and refrain from adding any more?
Thanks!Signed:

L’UE alle prese con i costi dell’energia. Ma petrolio e gas naturale (importati) contano ancora il 60 per cento del mix energetico

Domani i capi di stato e di governo dell'UE chiederanno a Bruxelles misure "mirate" a breve termine per contenere i prezzi, trainati in alto dal conflitto in Medio Oriente. L'Italia e altri

It's less that I want less art, and more that I want less Whedon/Fillion/Confederate apologism. I have more thoughts than I can probably effectively convey 500 characters at a time, because I don't even necessarily disagree with the themes (the government _is_ out to get you, but also holy shit we can deconstruct it better than this)
I love firefly, but especially in the context of modern everything, ugh, someone else please give me space cowboys.

@Craigp The overall curve of the sail doesn't require any special operation other than bending it with your fingers.
These ships are just a few centimeters, so a tennis ball is too big anyways. Generally you roll the sail up against a pen to curve it, though this might destroy some of the 3D bulges.
I'm talking about creating individual bulges in the lattice of sheets. If you fold it into a zig-zag and let dry around a small rod, unfortunately half of the bulges from that will go in wrong dir.
-
@androidarts How about folding it a few times, wetting it, and then pressing it against a tennis ball? While still folded, of course.

@datarama @liw I forgot to mention no car! I do have three cats, but they don't cost nearly as much as kids.
It will not surprise you that I am on the spectrum too. My late wife was probably borderline.
It was really freeing to me when I wised up and asked the financial advisor. (And was glad I already had one, courtesy of my credit union.) Heartily recommended if available. Fed him my current assets and amounts of the several pensions I had pending, highballed a guess of how much I'd want to spend per month, he plugged the numbers into a program that made reasonable assumptions about inflation and computed I'd be OK until at least age 90. Likely much longer now.
That leaves the problem of boredom/feeling useful--I enjoy my work and that I am helping people who deserve it. (I work at a university.) But I've developed enough other interests that I ought to be OK, and tested it some years back when I got burned out and took several years off working.
In any case I hope you find a comfortabler solution.
