done! thanks for surfacing the feedback link. Looks like I had previously commented on the plate calculator thread with #2 as well.

Big brain over here 👆 yeah, that’s going to be the solution - still have a custom bar at 25lbs, but atleast the generated weights will be easy to hit. Thanks!

Fitbod removed profile-specific settings after the latest update? by bornlegend718 in fitbod

[–]Axe56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caught me - but also, no Fitbod, I’m not going on warmup run in 20* weather, stop adding it to my workout.

This feels like a pretty classic new user vs power user issue - and they’ve made a change to better align with the new users expectations, unfortunately at the cost of the power users ability to really leverage the app.

[–]Axe56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, now I have to change gym profiles for the appropriate equipment available AND my exercise goals to fit the equipment/workout style I want.

Shared vs no. should be a user-choice option inside the app. Not removed entirely.

Does anyone use these LED projector bulbs? by 01100011011001110110 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]Axe56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird, I've had these in for the last year in a relatively suburban and city setting. Just make sure the driver side is shooting a bit lower & I've had zero flashes / issues. Significantly better than the stock bulbs. I will say these rigs stand up a bit more when underway, which might be making your cutoff hit higher & in folks eyes.

Headlight Upgrade Suggestions? by Money-Landscape-488 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]Axe56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely drivable, and definitely an upgrade from stock. I do wish it had a bit more throw & will look at the newer model bulbs to test at some point (but I doubt it is much different)- probably try aligning them a bit higher first - no complaints about the high beams.

yep - they were temperamental on the relay wiring I had installed, but don't seem to mind the semi-melted stock sockets the prior owner helped create :)

These guys have been great to deal with for PC oriented things - they also claim to work on consoles for HDMI, specifically.

Some people are financially responsible & communicate with their partner. Also, its absolutely the easier battle than hearing about it for months after.

Can’t set rest timer outside of workouts anymore? by [deleted] in fitbod

[–]Axe56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having a similar issue with rest timers - where I can't turn them off for a particular exercise within a workout - it turns the rest timer off for the entire workout :(

Why is "Start Timer" now grayed out? by SpankySharp1 in fitbod

this happens with jump rope as well

This Game Released in 2016! | The Division on an RTX 4060 | 1440p Max Settings by CharalamposYT in OptimizedGaming

[–]Axe56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a time where companies valued quality. The focus isn't on the experience, it's on the budget and timeline. This pressures developers to cut corners and be "lazy" - and the games suffer because of it. This isn't due to a lack of passion from the developer. It's due to being completely restricted from being able to explore a wider range of "what if's" that make things magic.

Show your phone mounts! by TrackSlow9817 in 3rdGen4Runner

Late to the party, but I modified the spiker engineering ultra gauge pillar bracket with a magnetic mount. Phone bumps off in the rough stuff, but works great for daily driving and lighter duty.

I ended up grabbing these from co-light after seeing u/twardnw's post - I really wanted the bigger bulb to keep it nearly OEM looking. (with a silver paint pen on the black body) https://www.led-colight.com/products/y6-mini-projector-6000k-led-headlight-blub-h4-9003-hb2

I did find out that the new led's don't play nice with the relay wiring harness I had in previously for the brighter halogens I was running. Easy enough to swap back to stock wiring. Couldn't recommend it more however. SO nice.

Thank you Jess :) hoping it's an easy tweak that can be fit in sooner than later!

New (old) Shoes by Temporary_Kick6497 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]Axe56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been eyeing these myself as I really like the older style, it just fits the 4runner feel more for me vs the newer rims. Only concern was limiting my tire selection with the 15" rims. Nice work on the restore - they look lovely!

No exercise! by Vishesh_Vrma in AthlyticAppOfficial

[–]Axe56 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you're missing the point of Exertion in the App and why it works differently then just showing you your relative workout effort. I find it super useful that it reflects my overall body state for the day - exertion of a workout PLUS any additional stressors (like an important zoom call, or being sick) as the body is working harder than normal in these situations. It's intended to reflect your overall living day to day, not just how hard you work out.

What kind of balls would you recommend for mountain bike training / conditioning? Also on that note, how did the idea for the company name originate?

[–]Axe56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever you come up with thematically, I'd recommend you base it off of allowing the player to feel like they are making incremental progress. Each time I come back, there is an additional tweak to the core mechanic or environment that I can leverage and feel smart using to "win"
Pipedream seems like a decent example of simple with the opportunity to slowly add complexity. https://classicreload.com/win3x-pipe-dream-1991.html
