For the crosstrek specifically I would look at the Husky floor mats which are very similar but did a better job in my 2017 Impreza of covering the dead pedal.

Oh, to dream of a dead pedal area.

I got a 6-speed, so no concern there, ha.

But I'll look at Husky brand if these ever start to wear out/not fit right/get ruined.

Pod Go guitar processor



The amount of amplifiers and effects it has is crazy. Sound modeling has advanced a lot.
It sounds so close to the real deal. I’ve got it connected to two small practice amps for true stereo effects.
It’s got all of what most guitarists need from the line 6 helix, for a third of the price.

I tried that last year and my container plants looked like they were doing great but never put out any veggies (although that could’ve also been the types of plants I put in the containers)

But I’m also just plum out of places to dig dirt from, and the only spots I have left to gently caress with are just straight up clay or chock full of pea gravel from an alleyway a hundred years ago

during a discussion of absurdly inappropriate marketing pushes towards kids, I was reminded of the Aliens toy line from the early 90s that had a bunch of weird play-action aliens like the Snake Alien, Bull Alien, Scorpion Alien, etc. I remember getting a bunch of them and the Evac Fighter for christmas one year. I also remember finding that evac fighter later on in life, and converting it into a Thunderhawk Gunship for warhammer 40k because there was no way a kid like me was going to be able to afford the real one and so I had to make do somehow. And then I sold it and forgot about it until now.

Well, turns out they're dirt loving cheap, even the MISB ones, and so now I once again own a shiny new Evac Fighter.

My wife and I just booked an Airbnb in Reykjavik for August. It'll be nice to travel again. I've got to fly out at the end of this month for work, but she'll be joining me at the end of my expedition. It'll be our first trip since late 2019, which feels like ages ago now. Gonna look at a volcano and ride a fat pony and get a new tattoo.

I don't usually buy game soundtracks, but for this one? Oh, I'll definitely make it the background soundtrack of my quiet moments, long into the future. If I were just a little less sensible, maybe I would spring for the batshit Limited Edition, but I'm not. I'll not be getting the marvel of vinyl jacket engineering that apparently requires 3 people to open and brought professionals to tears. Maybe someone in this thread will, however.

Protip for Iceland if it’s your first time:
Spend no more than a day in Reykjavik and spend the rest driving the ring road as far from Reykjavik as possible.

Also make all of your meals just hot dogs you buy from gas stations or just make spaghetti from a grocery store unless you want to pay $30 for the most mediocre panini of your life for every meal

I had an 8 hour layover in iceland in which I did the ring in a rental car and honestly it felt like enough

That’s the Golden Circle, which are a few big attractions right near Reykjavik. the ring is a road that goes around the whole country. 8 hours is good (hell four is) for the golden circle but for Iceland you’ll drive the ring road with the target of seeing a waterfall that’s 45 minutes away but it’ll take you an hour and a half to get there because you’ll stop like three times on the way just to marvel at random gorgeous scenery.

Staying more than a day in Reykjavik would be like going to Yellowstone and spending the entire time in the visitors section because it has neat exhibits and telling everyone you don’t see why everyone says it’s so beautiful

This is correct. There’s a beautiful glacier lagoon on the south end and some of the best sushi I’ve ever eaten at Nord Astur in Seyðisfjörður if you end up doing the full loop. The whole drive is amazing, you won’t believe how much the terrain can change over short distances.

There is some fantastic diving, both inland and ocean too, but seconding the hot dogs.

Also, there is a penis museum in Reykjavik if you're so inclined.

drat, where do you find mopeds that cheap? Around me, even just a frame with no engine goes for over $100, easily. If it runs, or can easily get running with a few hours of work, you're probably breaking the $500 mark.

Yeah this would be a moped to me, these where real popular when I was a teenager. Still are I think, though scooters are really popular now too.

Got it from a friend. People know my son and I are the “moped guys” so they always direct us to any they find. In this color and condition after getting it running, I’d think this Mobylette is worth probably $750 or so. My friend claims he has the original MA title at home as well so if he finds that it will bring the value up a bit as well.

Yeah originally moped meant it specifically had to have pedals but the vernacular now also includes other 50cc scooters like the Honda Express which doesn’t have pedals but looks like a moped in every other way.

For registration as a moped in my state it has to have pedals.
