What is a sledges?

Sledge on my friend!

A skier drawn by a horse is an actual sport for the record. But generally, as long as the speeds dont get too high it's a fun sport, but people have died due to extreme speeds and forgetting that the sled has no brakes. A helmet would be also wise.

You are right

at first glance, my brain saw porta-urinals

Look into the Kingston Data Traveler. They have some all-metal USB drives in that product line that are very tough - I've had the same one on my keys for years.

Example

Espresso machines do not need to generate 16 bars of pressure, standard is 9.

Cars from 40 yrs ago and longer leaked plastic fumes from the dashboards and stained rhe windows in high heat sunny days.

Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud. Take your pick. I'd trust Apple before Microsoft, and Microsoft before Google, but that's just me.

Sledges? Uh.

That is impressive considering how many sleds I went through as a kid

Your average sledge won't survive a good hammered sledging, but you'll still have a fun time in the snow, and hopefully you'll remember it.

Plastic shouldn't be allowed on this sub

For pedantry, those are hyphen/minus characters. The widths of hyphen/minus, en dash, and em dash are different. They're three completely different characters, different Unicode code points and everything:

- hyphen/minus
\– en dash
\— em dash

And you can get to them easily from the iOS keyboard by long pressing on hyphen/minus.

Honestly I’d recommend a shell wallet. She’s great and are pretty resistant to friction wear.

Alligator also holds up pretty good.

Hermès is just a name, the products aren’t actually that nice. It’s brand recognition not a display of craftsmanship.

My alarm is from the '90s, and I still use it. I would guess '94 since I assume I got it when my mom bought her house, and I got my own bedroom. It's a GE. Bet that brand isn't "buy it for life" worthy anymore.

Those Swedes do know how to make a strong (annoying at times) strong reusable things

How are they failing on you? Do they physically break or do they not work when plugged in and give errors?

If it’s the latter, it’s typically because memory sticks have inferior controllers comparatively to better quality SSD’s, and that said, not all are made equally in terms of quality NAND (memory) and controllers

Long story short, Samsung stuff is a safe bet

If you’re looking for a tough memory stick check out the Samsung BAR usb

We were lucky to get a trashcan lid to sled on lol, take the handle off and put some rope through the holes and you had steering, speed, and a great way to help your mom meet doctors lmao

The simplicity is the best part. Nothing to break or catch a kid.

My childhood ('90's-00's) involved a lot of smashing up plastic sleds by pulling them around a pasture behind a pickup truck (and later a four wheeler). I don't recall a plastic model that survived more than a day or two of frozen cow pies and tree roots, but we eventually dug up an antique wooden toboggan that we beat to hell, but which as far as I remember is still in one piece, sitting in some rafters at my parents house.

Not totally relevant to this post, but it was fun! We lived in an area too flat for any proper snow sports so it was the next best thing. I suspect that my wife and I will have a heated debate one day about whether our children will get to do this...

😂🤣😅 Similar but scaled down at 5'8" and a not entirely soft 250 - when I am shopping in fragile stores with my wife they always ask if I need help - 'nope, I'm just here to keep my hands in my pockets and try not to break stuff'

I'd try the [Gorilla](http://Check this out! https://a.co/d/fuA8L5D) or look for another ruggedized drive. Or maybe a metal 1-piece drive like this - not necessarily this one, just an illustration of what I mean.

That sounds sweet. I would have way over engineered it.

Damn, had to dream check after looking at that time.
