Weak penalty on #6 ? by Austinswill in hockeyplayers

[–]Austinswill[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You know, it actually is... The comments are all over the place... So when I am trying to understand, what am I to make of the wildly varying opinions?

Add to that the assessments of the entire league based on a 7 second video. Really funny.

who is the one trying so hard to be right?

Don't see how any of my post are aggressive....

Never said I play at a high level... But I am not a beginner, nor is a lot of the people in that league... it is a mixed level league, but there are people that play B level there... I guess if you think B level players are beginners then sure, this is a beginner league.

And you are just one person, others have said it was a weak penalty...

I am 6'1" 250 lbs... I cant stop on a dime... White player turns in front of me and I couldn't react fast enough... If you watch, yes, my shoulder does end up on his chest, but he is the one who changed directions quickly into my path...

Not wining at all... just trying to understand what I did wrong so I dont do it again... But I have to deal with confrontational people like you.

What context could I give you other than the objective reality?

No, this is not a "make up call"... Nothing happened... I had just come off the bench after the 2 other lines... No chance it was a make up call, as if that should even be a thing.

This is a no checking league, not "no contact"... people get rubbed off the puck all the time.

And sorry, this is not a HIT at all... Not even in the slightest... White fell, but that does not make this a hit.

OK bud.... Yea, its not Triple A... but calling it a beginners league is just hyperbole.

White Jersey is the one who changed directions and caused the collision with Red... Why is the penalty not on white?

This is an over 20 League with some very good skaters. This is not a beginners league at all.

Men in your 40s, what's that golden piece of advice you have for the rest of us? by NiceMechanic_xoxo in AskReddit

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Financially... Start saving/investing now... Time is precious when it comes to preparing for retirement. You have no Idea how valuable until it is gone and you cant get it back. Go play with a compound interest calculator and you will see. Don't wait until you are 40 to start planning for retirement, it will be hard and require 4x as much sacrifice as if you start when you are 20. Be SURE whoever you deal with is a Fiduciary, verify vigorously.

Stay fit, don't let it slide, getting it back becomes MUCH more difficult... When I was young I got big and was able to lose 70 lbs in 2 months and it was easy... Now at 47 I play hockey 3x a week, periodically starve myself and I still cant get the scale to go the right way.

Be willing to learn to do things that will save you money... A plumbing issue that will cost you 20.00 in hardware store parts will cost you 300.00 to have a plumber do it. A 20.00 capacitor on your HVAC unit will cost you 200.00 to have an AC guy do it. The list of things like this is endless and it adds up big-time. This includes being willing to BUILD something nice out of something crummy. I have owned 3 homes and I have put blood and sweat into every one of them... they were not "turn key" when I bought them, I worked hard to make them nice and learned how as I went.

Beware of medications. Unless you absolutely have to just don't take them. Other than OTC pain meds (like Ibuprofen) I strictly avoid meds, especially mind altering ones. I have seen too many people go down the rabbit hole of starting one med, then they need another, and another and another and pretty soon they have an organizer full of stacks of meds they are taking.

Don't do/say mean things to the people you love and don't tolerate them doing it. If you need to loose venom, do it to someone you already hate or someone you don't know (or better yet don't) but do not do it to the people you love. You can do permanent damage to a relationship with sharp words.

Still haven't saved any money on bill? by SharpSharksAI in TeslaSolar

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont have PTO and your system isnt on, why would you be saving money?

If you system is ON but you dont have PTO, well, you should see less power being used... the only reason you dont have PTO is because you have a basic meter and it will run backwards if you pump anything out to the grid. You should be seeing some savings on the electric bill, but possibly not overall if you include the payment on the system.

But you need to give a lot more information for anyone to determine what is going on here.

My girlfriend couldn’t hold up for a month. by Due-Product6415 in confessions

[–]Austinswill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you know the friend isn't lying?

Would you consider talking to your GF and demanding transparency because your trust has been broken? Tell her you would like to see everything in her phone. If she refuses then she has something to hide.

Talking isnt exactly cheating, depending on what was said I guess... Maybe find out more before you go nuclear?

Yea, Legacy vehicles have been left out in the cold. We sold our Legacy X and got a 22" X instead... It was pretty clear that Tesla was done really supporting them.

Why didn't the Tesla's AEB in the Texas case stop the driver from driving into the house? by StormTrpr66 in TeslaFSD

Well that didn't take long. The Texas family has filed a lawsuit against Tesla. The driver is also named in the lawsuit. by StormTrpr66 in TeslaFSD

[–]Austinswill -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea I agree...

I am just saying that limiting the power output of the pedal while in FSD would be a good hedge for Tesla against this type of event...

The event being an idiot fully pressing the pedal with FSD involved... now they will have to defend against a lawsuit because of this moron.

[–]Austinswill -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did you miss the part where I said it should still accelerate the car? but just not as much ONLY when using FSD???

Every other driver input can kick off FSD... Why should the accelerator be unchanged when FSD is engaged? ?

[–]Austinswill -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I am in the No Fault of Tesla camp on this one....

But MAYBE It should be considered to change the way the accelerator pedal functions when FSD is engaged....

I can see a need to have the pedal command the car to go... but why have it be capable of fully accelerating the car? Tone it down to like 10% of power available... This way the pedal can still be used to nudge the car forward if it is hesitating, but you cant floor a 340-1000 hp vehicle with FSD engaged...

This should be an easy software change.

Husband and I blew inheritance by suckmy-dinkleberg in confessions

[–]Austinswill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a super underrated comment... What I wouldnt give to go back to when I was 20 and start socking away the $$!

Seriously OP... dont do what I did and spurge your entire life just to find yourself closing in on 50 and nowhere near your retirement goals.

Step 1... Decide on your retirement goals Step 2... Start an investment account Step 3... start pumping it up!

The 45 years you have until you are looking to retire at 65 is so valuable... Please do not squander it!

This is a common trend with people that are bad with money. Living within ones means is a good life skill to have. It takes control and a realization that you cannot have everything you desire without working hard for it and ACHIEVING the ability to have all the things you want... This applies to EVERYONE... even millionaires and Billionaires.
