goatmealto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What’s your go-to hiking gear in 2025? Here’s what worked best for me3·30 days agoTbh I feel like less is more, and a lot of these depend on duration/climate.
Universal is good boots. I like something light waterproof and high ankle for the most versatility. I use an old pair of danners they’re pretty good, only complaint is the top is too wide and little gravel pieces get in there on messier trails. My dads got the on cloud ones and likes them a lot. Says they’re pretty comfortable.
Depending on hike length I’ll either hydrate well before or carry a water bottle (~2 hours or less) or bring a camelback bladder in a light camelback backpack (longer hike). Honestly love that thing I’ve had it 15+ years and it’s nice just getting water from a straw on your shoulder.
Next is climate. Hot: light breathable quick dry tee. Super sunny: make it long sleeve with a bucket hat and/or sunscreen. Chance of rain: light rain jacket (like you mentioned). I got a Helly Hansen one that’s built well. Cold/chilly: layers. I almost always end up taking them off once I get moving, but it’s good to have for breaks/start/end. Really cold (30-45F) would be like a puffer jacket that can pack down (I have an arc Teryx but I don’t think it’s that much better than a north face or a Costco generic). Moderately chilly (45-60F) a light mellanzana type sweater/jacket.
Food for 4+ hour hikes: I like fruit (oranges, apples, tomatoes), potato chips (the salt hits different after a good sweat), beef sticks, pb&j, and beer. Maybe an electrolyte powder if it’s really hot.
(Honorable mention to crocs or birks to get out of your boots as soon as you get back to the car)
I think most other gear is dead weight. Did a 26 mile day hike across the whole Grand Canyon with just the camelback and food (11 lbs total) and hot/sunny clothes option above and smoked all the people with 20+ pound packs and random gear
goatmealto Work Reform@lemmy.world•McDonald’s CEO is grappling with a ‘two-tier economy’ as he slashes prices on value meals—and signals backing for a minimum wage increase2·1 month agoIt’s like the prisoners dilemma. We were top left. Some companies thought they could pay less and still reap the benefits of other employers paying well, now everyone does that we’re bottom right
Also anecdotally, among my friends the ones who had it paid for/scholarships are against relief while the ones who paid it off themselves are for it. It does kinda feel like those who went through it want to save others from having to do it to

One of my credit card apps gives me a pop-up on every page that it won’t work because there’s no Google play services, but it actually just works anyway. Had to turn exploit compatibility mode off for a couple of them though

Yea I feel this like I’m cool as a dude and wouldn’t want to not have been/be a dude but I really like experiencing different things and it’d be neat to experience being a woman for a bit
goatmealto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?5·5 months agoFor me, the house I’m in was built in 1912 but it’s still holding strong. My parents have me beat though, they got the original governor of south carolina’s front doors which were from somewhere in the late 1700s

I’m in the upper Midwest (100+ highs and -40 lows) with no garage and keep my e-bike in a shed, but I take the battery inside after each ride and wait for it to reach room temp before charging.
The bike should be fine. The battery may have some issues
goatmealto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•If everyone goes to baseball games by car and everyone gets wasted like Randy Marsh, how do people get home?7·7 months agoWhen I visited Netherlands it was nice to not have to think about this while going out.
For your question, most people don’t get drunk. An average adult man can process about 1 drink an hour, so 2-3 standard drinks or less spread out over a game should be fine. You also kinda coordinate with your group to make sure someone’s good to drive.
If you’re all planning on getting drunk, you take Ubers. You can also come back in the morning for your car if it was unplanned

Yea Evers has been good about making it clear they won’t prosecute for abortions. This was a (tough) choice by PP to stop abortions to continue to receive federal funding and provide other free services vs having federal funding cut off and being able to provide even less
