    MoFi restocked I think around 1k each of some Miles Davis releases, including In A Silent Way (possibly my favorite Miles record), which is a $220 median record on Discogs (I’d had it in my want-list for years, unfortunately after it exploded in value). Now it’s available at $40 until they last. They also have Sketches of Spain, Milestones, and A Tribute To Jack Johnson. https://www.musicdirect.com/music/vinyl/miles-davis-in-a-silent-way-numbered-180g-vinyl-lp/
  2. I can’t find the YouTube video that has the stretches I used, but here is what worked for me: I did wall calf stretches (putting the ball of your foot angled up against a wall, but crossing your leg over your other one instead of doing it straight) several times a day. Before bed, I would stretch the shit out of my PF by squatting down like in the photo below and working it as much as I was comfortable with. I’m no doctor, but I believe doing this helps to stimulate blood flow to the area since it doesn’t get very much. Sorry for crappy photo, but it’s the best I could find. There are other ways to stretch the PF, but this one really worked for me since it uses body weight instead of relying on yourself to push or pull in a certain direction. When waking up, I’d be sure to do kind of a hand massage of the soles of my feet before getting out of bed, and I forced myself to wear shoes all day even if at home. For me, Brooks Ghost have been great. They have a ton of heel cushion which helps your Achilles/PF chain have to do less work so that it can heal. A shoe with a higher heel drop can also help by loading the hips and knees more, relative to the ankle/foot (Brooks Ghost are a 12mm drop) when you walk or run, further allowing the PF/Achilles chain to heal. Doing all of that and wearing the right shoes fixed me right up.
  3. Feels like every time they go to baseline cam we lose the point. Quit that shit, ESPN!
  4. The Land Cruiser is allegedly coming back but on the Prado platform as a 4 cylinder turbo hybrid. Still speculation though.
  5. Yes, there was a lot of overtaking in the pits. You also had to choose your fuel level when qualifying (as it would be the fuel you started the race with) which made for some interesting strategy, but it didn’t really lead to on track action at all.
  6. I feel that South Rim is the best viewpoint in all of Texas, myself. Especially if you go up the Pinnacles route so you don’t get any preview of what you’re going to see beforehand.
  7. Yeah, not watching races at 7/8am feels weird at this point.
  8. Holy balls I did. I have no excuse. I love TBC’s track layout. A classic.
  9. Ok, I started it. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/28267-formula-1-2023/
  10. Alright, it’s that time. Starting this sooner than last year, but mostly because last year’s season actually went into mid-December. There are a few new faces (De Vries, Sargeant) this year, and least 5 drivers have expiring contracts at the end of 2023. Discuss.

    Nice. I ain’t that fancy, but did add an MP-500 stylus to my Nagaoka cart (MP-150/200 body) recently. Saw a tip from a guy on a Nag FB about a Japanese site to buy Nag stuff from that is way cheaper than everywhere else (even Japanese eBay sellers). I’m enjoying it. Had been using elliptical styli before, so the fine line is very precise sounding.
  12. E100 Still not happy with my 120 film holder for scanning. Going to switch to a Valoi setup. Film was also filthy on the Delicate Arch shot, oops.
  13. Here’s a few from the Mamiya RB67. T-Max 400

  15. They have to have two timing transponders, installed in any of these positions. Edit: elfenix beat me to it. In any case, the distance traveled is all relative anyway. The only time it might matter is when cars are crossing the finish line, but you can visually see that. If it’s close enough to where you can’t, you could use transponder data.
  16. They actually went to Hakkasan and not the Salt Bae restaurant. Some guy in twitter just tried to assume things after Salt Bae posted this receipt at around the same time. Hakkasan isn’t as high end but is a Michelin star restaurant.
  17. That’s fuckin awesome, dude. I’m excited for you.
  18. I was able to find it. The original insta post is deleted now, though.
  19. ^^ You can actually see FiFi on the runway in some of the views of the incident.
  20. Also, that’s most definitely Marko in the photo above.
  21. I do think Vettel was a product of the Red Bull machine, though. The “finger boy” stuff was really annoying back then for sure (plus multi 21, etc). His persona even carried over into Ferrari a bit (like when he got red mist and rammed Lewis at Baku), but he’s chilled massively since then and seems like a great dude.
  22. I wonder if max will boycott Checo now. You know, since he was being so “disrespectful”.
