сесезонная велопокрышка Shwalbe GT-365,

Shwalbe GT-365 bicycle tire, first impressions

For this winter I swapped the already worn out Bontracker tire on the rear wheel for an all-season Shwalbe GT-365. I've done about 100km on it so far, mostly on asphalt, concrete and normal forest and field roads. To form a final opinion about this tire, there was only a test on muddy forest roads, which I did on this last day of October.

I speak in Russian, so I can say shortly. It a very good tire for travels, city. And I sure, that this tire will be excellent work on snow. But it not for cycling competition with hard off-road hardcore. This tire has excellent clings to the road on asphalt, concrete, forest and gravel and a "medium-mudest" roads. For liquid mud you need a more "wicked" tire.

This echo was recorded on my Zoom H5 with Rode NTG1 shotgun mic on May 29, 2021, edited today.

I spent a week on my friends' farm in Bella Coola, helping out, but also recording for a story for Radio-Canada. Here is just me walking in the hay.

If you understand French, you can read the story or listen to the radio piece (preceded by a conversation with the show host, when I was recovering from Covid and had a big ol' gravelly voice.)

Cet écho a été enregistré sur mon Zoom H5 avec le micro shotgun NTG1 de Rode le 29 mai 2021, édité aujourd'hui.

J'ai passé une semaine sur la ferme d'un couple d'amis à Bella Coola, pour aider mais aussi pour préparer un reportage radio et web pour Radio-Canada. Aujourd'hui, juste un petit extrait de moi marchant dans le foin.

Et si ça vous intéresse, vous pouvez lire l'article web ou écouter le reportage radio (précédé d'une converse avec l'animatrice de l'émission, alors que je me rétablissais de la Covid et donc avec une grosse voix bien rocailleuse.)

Epi has played a lot of number-go-up strategy roguelites, but Balatro is not one of them. Vega is obsessed with Balatro and has to teach Epi how to play without being able to see the screen. Other things may also go wrong.

This stream is also the debut of a new tool for collaborative streams that Epi made!

Finally replaced the old display with the new touch display for my VF-1 inspired home cockpit panel.

The display is the N173HCE-E31, a 17.3 inch with 1920x1080. The touch registeres as a USB HID Mouse by ILITEK and is basically sitting on top. I never noticed before but while cramming it in I noticed that it's a little bit lopsided 😩 Ah well, it's hardly noticeable.

Sadly I made no progress for the rewiring and pushed that back. I really have to clean this eventually but that'll result in a long downtime for the cockpit.

I did however make progress with the HUD app. Initially I had no touchscreen support in mind so I had to rewrite a lot of code. This forced me to take a closer look at the UI elements and I found so many bugs and optimized so much. Still in the middle of tweaking which is why there is a lot of debug visible in the video. I'm very happy with the result though and I think I'm really getting that Valkyrie VF-1 vibe going 🤘
