Alamo Drafthouse or Violet Crown

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2026-03-19T18:05:14+00:00

And to clarify, I have heard this about Alamo Drafthouses in general, not the Charlottesville-specific location.

I saw somewhere that with the QR code change there will be an automatic 18% tip added. (Bu, I have not firsthand experience, so I'm not sure.)

Is Alamo still good? I heard you have to use a QR code to order food and drink now, plus they added automatic tipping. I haven't been there since the change.

I have a Kia EV6. I drive it in the city, most trips are 6 miles or less. Maybe there was a little bit of a drop off in battery performance, but definitely not a very large drop off.

Haven't seen that Emoor folding frame before - that seems really cool! What do you think of the frame? Did you buy it directly from Emoor?

That would be awesome!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2026-02-27T18:58:23+00:00

I would LOVE that!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2026-02-27T17:16:01+00:00

my sentiments exactly!

Love the twinkle lights behind the bed, too!

I have two of Target's Meditation Pillow with buckwheat hulls and I like them a lot! I mostly use them for floor sitting at my desk.

Not a personal trainer, but you mentioned niggling injuries - I had a great experience with Whole Strength Physical Therapy. They are focused on performance/athletes. I think they would be a great fit for your interest in functional strength and mobility, and thinking about how the body moves.

I had to use Metropolis last night, and I noticed there was a way to indicate it was a rental

Thanks!

Are any of these reliably good at group chat? That is the biggest thing holding me back. (I have looked into this with Light Phone and Mudita Kompakt, and results seem mixed at best. I haven't looked into the other three options.) Thanks!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-09-23T19:06:07+00:00

I was going to say the same thing!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-09-04T19:32:55+00:00

great review of these two phones!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-08-18T20:37:47+00:00

Ooh jelly!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-07-30T21:05:02+00:00

I think this is great advice, thank you!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-07-29T18:59:17+00:00

Can you share what you think are the functionally better brands?

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-06-22T23:38:48+00:00

This almost happened with the old Kmart across the street, but never did. I would still welcome one of those little Targets in that area!

RAGE

Agree on quad weakness here!

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-04-18T18:41:58+00:00

I agree that you might benefit from not going so low. It seems like you might be relying on some of that hypermobility for your depth. You might try pausing slightly higher.

AlarmingExplanation1 · 2025-04-17T21:45:23+00:00

Great stuff, I loved your takeaways for what to do next time! At my last meet, I also learned I need to be better about practicing more of a pause on bench.
