used the new liforme mat for the first time this morning. Purple color.

There are stains which I hope will go away. Should I keep it under the sun? or shade? or indirect light?

to be honest not very practical having the need to unfold and hang after every practice..

thinking about returning it: would the Manduka better for this?

any hint and suggestion is appreciated. Thanks in advance

i have a two monitors set-up: on the left a small arzopa and centrally a larger Benq.

All connected to a ThinkPad usb hub.

Everything has worked well until 2 hours ago, i was working as usual.

Now all of a sudden, the resolution on the Benq became worse, and i see the same desktop/image on both displays and when i click to DETECT multiple monitors, i get "WE DIDNT FIND ANOTHER DISPLAY". So the cursor doesnt go anymore from one monitor to the other..

what happened? what could i do?

got the Fenix7 as a (paid) replacement for my Fenix6 (since Garmin didnt feel fixing the start/stop button). I feel it is an improvement over the Fenix6, however yesterday during an open water swim i noticed that the distance measure goes up even if I dont move. I mean, if I am in the water during the activity and I have to stay still for some reason (waiting other people etc), the velocity drops but the distance keeps running while I simply move my arms to float. While I thought the distance would have been measured by the satellite. So remaining still it added like 40meters....

so it brings me to the question: how reliable are these little tools people like to overpay for?

like maybe many, my icloud space is full, and I am currently reluctant to buy additional space again. So I am looking for a solution allowing:

- bulk download (to save time)

- retaining all the pics' info, including data picture taken (instead of having the latest download date, as happens too often)

- maybe having the pics with a name allowing to sort them in the order they were taken. If I have to rename the pics, then there is no saving in time

- download pics in high quality (maybe a format that everyone else can also open easily, rather than the HEIC which no one seems to be able to open) so that could be printed.

I have read an old thread suggesting a link to request apple the bulk download, and will do that, even though i dont know how it will turn out and if it will satisfy my requirements above.

More in general, how do you guys do? do you download your pics periodically so dont have the massive problem? any authomatic system? any other useful tip?

thanks in advance

Had the ninja for 7 months now.
And still from time to time, during my breakfast smoothie making, a warm smell comes up. Like if it needed some lubrication.

Does it happen to you as well? What should I do/use?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks

Have the Fenix 6pro, the start/stop button got stuck and Garmin doesn’t want to repair it, rather they gave me an “offer” to return my watch and buy the Fenix 7pro for a price higher than on amazon…

So what alternative to Garmin would you suggest for splitboarding tours, running and swimming?
Thanks

hi

all of a sudden my top right button stopped working, i tried the soak-rinse-click method I read about, but nothing.
I wrote to Garmin and they said that 1- CANNOT be repaired, and 2- offered to return it and they will offer a discount on the "fēnix® 7 Pro – Sapphire Solar Edition" for €630.

I found both statements weird, since I read online that people can repair it, and also the 7pro online cost slightly less without need to return my current watch.

What do you guys would suggest?

thanks

ho comprato l'anno scorso un sistema di irrigazione automatica, questo: https://www.amazon.it/dp/B0C5Q9T5MQ.

Di solito lo uso per assenze fino a 14 giorni, e uso come serbatoio una tanica da 30litri, la più grande che abbia trovato.

Il motorino che ho permette di organizzare irrigazioni ogni 12 ore o ogni 24 ore, della durata di 5, 15 o 20 minuti.

lo uso per innaffiare un acero, due rincosperma, e le varie balconette sulla ringhiera.

Quando ho fatto le prove mi è sembrato che 15 minuti ogni 24 ore fossero eccessive, e in effetti la tanica era finita al ritorno.

L'ideale sarebbe poco meno di 10 minuti (che però non è disponibile). O l'alternativa sarebbe 5 minuti ogni 12 ore? ma come orario significherebbe 5am e 17 nel pomeriggio, mentre ogni 24ore mi permetterebbe di bagnare dalle 19 in poi o in generale dopo il tramonto.

Avete qualche motorino/soluzione da consigliare? e se cambio il motorino immagino che il sistema di tubicini rimanga valido o dovrei sostituire anche quello?

grazie in anticipo

hi, we will be staying in a hotel in Cangas de Onis.

we will have our own car.

Would like to do the Cares Route, but one way only, so I will be booking a return transfer service.

I see you can do the trail either from Caín or from Poncebo: what would you recommend, considering we are going from Cangas and will return to Cangas?

thanks in advance

In the day I am interested, there is only 1 slot available, and i travel with my kid (which also requires a separate permit).

Do you know by chance if i can get the permits for "camper" instead? what would be the difference?

any other solution/secondary market? or going there by guided tour?

Thinking of visiting the Covadonga lake from Cangas. We will have a car.

I found an old thread saying: "Covadonga lakes, it's not ideal because in peak season you can't just go on your own, everybody needs to use the public buses to access the area"

Is that true?

Hi
Will be landing in Coruna at the beginning of August and have rented a car.
Since we land at 19:30 and need time to pick up the car I doubt we will have time to go straight to Santiago (have a 12yo kid). We will then was thinking to spend the first night in Coruna and then move to Santiago the day after.

How many nights would you suggest in Santiago?, 2 are enough or 3 nights are needed? Assuming we arrive in Santiago in the afternoon after Coruna, we spend a night there and the day after we do Cies: i see Fisterra seems to be a detour on our way back to Santiago? should we plan Fisterra as another day trip from Santiago?

Also, I am open to your suggestions on what to visit once in Santiago and how to best organize it.

GRACIAS!

Allora, piano piano sto accantonando le Azzorre come idea di viaggio per le prime due settimane di agosto con figlia dodicenne, e mi starei concentrando su nord della spagna, arrivo a Santiago o Coruna, e in auto fino a Bilbao da cui si ritorna.

Ho giocato un poco con AI, e mi suggerisce indicativamente questi itinerari. Secondo voi come sono? cosa cambiereste/suggerireste? troppi sbattimenti cambiando ogni due notti? o è fattibile?

- 2nights in Coruna+ 2 in ribeira sacra + 3 cangaas de onis + 2 potes + 2 santillana de mar + 2 san sebastian + 1 bilbao

OR

1 coruna + 2 santiago + 3 Cangas + 3 Llanes + 4 santander + 2 san sebastian

I know it gets asked often, unfortunately where I live I don’t have the chance to try all the suggestions.
I have already the Patagonia torrentshell 3l. I used to have the previous 2l version which delaminated and Patagonia replaced with the new version. The jacket seems to have it all: waterproof pitzips strong. However it is hard and noisy, and I get wet inside. I would like to find something softer and more comfortable and really breathable. I would use it only for occasional protection during hottest months also in urban setting, or something light to throw in your bag before leaving “just in case”. I already have heavier waterproof jackets for snow or hiking.
So I am considering as an alternative to torrentshell: norrona falketind dri (but no pitzips) montura magic jacket (I heard the new version is not anymore what used to be). I am sure RAB makes something similar.
Should I give up the waterproofness and check water resistant instead? Is there any delamination risk if I pick a non 3L?
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.

hi,

Looking for some idea for a trip in august, first two weeks. Leaving from Italy, with my 12yo daughter.

We were thinking about Spain, and ideally would love to see the eclipse on the 12th of august.

Ideally flying there and renting a car. Also, i would imagine returning the car to a different airport.

Would you be so kind to suggest a potential itinerary, mixing up nice things to see, nature, seaside, in general something more active than "too much relaxed", and considering the presence of a 12yo kid? any idea is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

grazie in anticipo!

I tried the Outdoor Research Swift Air cap, which was perfect on paper, with large mesh on the side and covered on top. I thought the fit would be like their Swift cap, however it sits much lower and it hurts my ears. So I am looking for a cap to be used under hot direct sun, breathing well but also protecting my almost bald head. I see many brands (RNNR etc) do a mesh with small holes on top as well, which make me question how protective they might be. I see RNNR also does the "Distance Hat: Unicorn" which is aligned with my ask, but i'd prefer something more... discreet and simple in terms of colors and look.

Anything you might suggest? i saw the BAMBU WERX would be perfect, but too expensive to ship to Italy.

Does this cap cover the top of your head? Or also the top is mesh as it seems from the pics?

Because if it is mesh then I don’t see how it can really protect from direct sun exposure? Other brands do a similar mesh however the top is covered (e.g. OR swift air).
