I do not open mail, I do not answer phones, the fridge is pretty much a home for mayonnaise alone
Watch a pocket-knife surgeon cut a cyst out in the kitchen
It's the cousin to acutely removing his own stitches in a pinch
Kool-Aid ooze that is toothache, mushroom growing in the car
It's just another Tuesday

Sure enough.
Today I get to play graphic designer and VB scripter, which is cool cause I have zero formal or informal training in either. And there is nobody I can ask for help. Lovely.
mmmmn espresso on a cold morning.... light schedule today...except for the round trip with the 390 pounder 
Doing the 9-5 shift today which for me is very rare , at least it's all in town.

Seems like a good time for a job change.

You hiring? I'll work under you.Seems like a good time for a job change.
My life.
Morning. Garmin Speed sensor arrived, perhaps I could find time to ride this evening or at night. My recorded max speeds should increase dramatically.
versus the GPS?My life.

There's my little ridemonkey friends!! I ran six miles on the track this morning, alternating one lap hard and one lap easy. Shorts a t-shirt in December, and I am someone who errs on the side of dressing warm.
I worked until 7:30 last night, then logged on to 50 new e-mails this morning. jhfc.

Just make sure you use some combination of Comic Sans, Papyrus, and/or Cooper Black fonts and you'll do just fine.

Hello snow! My town next to the lake got dumped on with snow, or more accurately, is still getting dumped on. A full size school bus was once again sideways and stuck at the end of the street.
Half the snow 30 mins south at work.
Supposed to keep snowing until tomorrow.
Guess I better inflate the fat bike tires and bleed the shimano brakes.

Yep. My Fenix 5 shows consistently 10-15% shorter rides and lower top speeds than my buddy's F6 when we ride together. @CrabJoe StretchPants has one based on his Connect data so I am curious to see the difference.
yes. i hate teams.Has anyone elses work place retired Skype in favour of Teams Chat? We're doing this in 7 days. Teams Chat sucks so much in comparison, how does no one realize this?
interesting. i benchmarked my garmin off my cell phone, and they were pretty close to one another. to be fair they could both be way off.
the reason i don't use the speed sensor on my MTB is because the rubber mounting case for it isn't large enough to fit around an MTB hub. have they fixed that? its been a while since i've looked.
The cadence sensor comes with 3 different length rubber bands, but the speed sensor is a fixed/permanent band....so no. This was over the summer, so very recent.
It was pretty hard to get onto my Pro4 hubs, which are pretty average sized hubs. Though that was more a product of working through the spokes and being a PITA to get your hands in a good position.
You running a Seismic hub or something?

We'll need to ride together ASAP and have you not ass-plode your bottom bracket.
My 5X is consistently 15-20% longer in distances than my friend's Lezyne unit, and that's after at least 10-12 rides. Last ride I did another friend was very close (within .2mi over a ~10.5mi ride I believe), but don't know what he was using.
In my experience, all the distance/speed/elevation readings on pretty much all handheld/watch GPS seem suspect. Though when I look at the recorded GPS tracks after a ride/hike, the accuracy overlaid on the map is crazy accurate, so I tend to believe it.

We still use both interchangeably, but when someone messages me in Teams I am far more likely to ignore you.
the elevation is definitely suspect. i'll get 30+ feet of elevation change when i'm on the stationary bike.
we used both for a while too, but that was just to give a timeframe to get everyone transferred over to teams before discontinuing skype. it's coming whether you like it or not.We still use both interchangeably, but when someone messages me in Teams I am far more likely to ignore you.
I'll probably ignore you too, but because the Teams window doesn't flash or notify you that there is someone sending you a message.We still use both interchangeably, but when someone messages me in Teams I am far more likely to ignore you.
And how can you not pop out the entire chat window like Skype? From what I can tell, there is no easy way to open more than one Teams window. So if I do see a new chat message, I need to exit whatever I'm working on in Teams, go read the stupid message and then navigate back to whatever I was working on.
Cutting the ability to get in touch with me by 1/2? I'll take it.
Right click, pop out chat....I'll probably ignore you too, but because the Teams window doesn't flash or notify you that there is someone sending you a message.

You can do that per individual chat, so now I'll have a bunch of needless tabs on my task bar.
It needs to be able to popout the entire chat tab. You know, exactly like how Skype was.....
Is that with the speed sensor?
ahh gotcha. Best you can do is have your taskbar set to "group similar tabs" or whatever it is. They'll still all be individual chat windows, but at least you just mouse over the same taskbar icon, and select the right one.
Not as clean as skype clearly, but better than what you described.

Morning Monkeys.
It's cold, damn. Clear for like a week, but cold, holy hell it's cold. I need a better heater for the shed, brrr.

what hub do you have it on?

I joined my company right after they started phasing out Skype in favor of Teams, so I really don't know any difference. We mostly use Teams for audio and video meetings, and tend to use Slack for all text-based async communications. Apparently there was a time when Skype was still in play, and there were three (3) IM clients being used. Thank goodness that's over. I am firm believer in once the nuances and quirks are learned, I can make anything work.We still use both interchangeably, but when someone messages me in Teams I am far more likely to ignore you.
