I love it. Wiith some slight design changes (less birds ☹️) I could see this being in a diner today - updating the prices, of course.

I can't speak to their current products, but my M400 is still going strong after 10 years of daily use. My wife's Garmin stopped holding charge after 2 years.

Polar's app leaves something to be desired, though.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to release a direct-to-streaming animated sequel/spin-off?

All of the examples relate to differences in pronunciation, so the guidance in the OP is good - use your personal pronunciation. I would imagine this would be harder for non-native speakers, but fortunately there aren't many words (that I'm aware of) that are commonly pronounced with a leading vowel sound or leading consonant sound depending of dialect.

The only example cited in this thread that most people will experience is "herb" which has large populations that pronounce it with and without a silent "h." "History" and related words are not commonly pronounced with a silent h outside of regional dialects.

English is definitely nuts, but can you give an example of where this particular rule doesn't apply?

No, it's cooler than that! All these vegetables are cultivars of the same species (Brassica oleracea). Citrus trees are different species with common origins.

A trick that has worked for me: pull on a finger. In a dream (probably because I've conditioned myself) it will stretch like taffy which was enough to indicate that I'm dreaming.

Interestingly, after a while seeing my finger stretch wasn't enough to convince me that I was dreaming: I would question whether it was stretching enough. Like "oh, it's only double it's normal length, so this is probably reality." This has also happened with other tricks I've tried, like try to fly ("I'm only hovering; probably not a dream"). It's almost like you build a tolerance for particular abnormalities.

Sorry, that was longer than I meant for it to be

Is there any clue to where dark gold ore will be in the new area? I'm at 39 pieces in one of my runs and stuck just mining through random walls.

Pepper recommendations (self.gardening)
submitted 1 year ago by reattach to c/gardening

Hi - I'm new to the community!

I'm planning my vegetable garden for next year, and am looking for pepper suggestions. I'm in USDA Zone 7a, grow in raised beds, rotate crops every year, add home compost and fertilizer (bloodmeal at planting, bonemeal when flowering) annually, and start my seedlings indoors.

I've had good production the past few years with Greek pepperoncinis, Petit Marseillais, shishito, and various habanero varieties, but have had poor yields in the past when trying to grow the peppers my wife prefers: poblano, jalapeno and banana.

Any suggestions for either varieties or technique? Ideally I'm looking for a versatile heirloom (I save seeds) with a moderate (sub-habenaro) level of heat.

M400 losing stride sensor calibration factor (self.polarfitness)
submitted 2 years ago by reattach to c/polarfitness
0 comments fedilink
 

Hello everyone!

I've had an M400 for about 8 years. Recently I've noticed that the manual calibration factor on my stride sensor changes (not to 1.000, but to another value) periodically, without my changing it. I have the stride sensor calibration set to "Manual." I think, but am not sure, that it happens after I sync with Polar Flow using my phone. I don't see any settings in Polar Flow where the stride sensor calibration factor would be set.

Anyone else have this problem, or know what I am doing wrong?
