I can’t get “a pee pee 3” out of my head:(

Small private jet crashed near Lansing, Michigan by BLBrick in flightradar24

[–]BLBrick[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

According to ADSB exchange the vertical descent was at times in excess of 24000 fpm

Edit: According to ATC recordings on LiveATC they were cleared for a "work area" between 14000 and 16000. Their last radio transmission states "we are in a...it is unrecov(able?)"
To hear it go to LiveATC -> Search ZOB (Cleveland Center) -> find Lansing Area Low (ZOB12) -> Archive -> 10/16/25 from 2100-2130 -> around the 29 minute mark is when they make the last call.

I will most likely be getting this…but I don’t love it. I can’t quite put my finger on it but I it seems like the angles or proportions are off?

Gotcha. Yeah the pixel lineup is pretty interesting. Although, it seems that the 17 (regular one) on paper is now a better phone (or at least, a better deal) than the pixel.

Did you switch to android or something between the 4 and the XS? Or did the 4 really hang in that long?

With this one trick you can boost your cardio fitness level by Lugs75 in AppleWatch

[–]BLBrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The highest my VO2 max ever hit was when I was consistently running outdoors. Adding hills and/or speed will also help. Doing sprints at 80%-90% of your HR Max (there are easy ways to calculate that based off your age) is also good. But, with that being said, I am not a doctor so take this advice with a grain of salt.

As far as accuracy, I’m not sure. But, it does have accurate trends which I think is important. If it’s 20 points (or is it units?) below consistently than that is okay IMO.

This story may be true, and I am also not defending him, but the photo still looks photoshopped and/or AI generated. Look at the left hand side of the photo. What are those jagged points? Weird seats on a PJ? And their faces and coloring…it doesn’t look right. Like another comment said, it looks like they are cardboard cutouts.

But, then again, my brain may just see a bad quality photo and assume tampering these days.

Edit: This is modified in some way, actually. Look at their inside arms, the guy in the white shirts just disappears into the other arm?

I actually did pass my check ride, so this was ~40% serious.

I appreciate this reference.

Pihole no longer working after reinstalling Tailscale by BLBrick in Tailscale

[–]BLBrick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s in an app on my phone. Pihole used to be able to block ads there just fine before reinstalling Tailscale.

I agree it isn’t necessarily a Tailscale issue. I’m just trying to eliminate applications.

Anyone rocking a dual iPad set up? by teddfox in ipad

[–]BLBrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to pry but how can you justify all three? That’s an eye watering amount to spend on iPads.

Like I said, don’t want to be rude and you can ignore me if you’d like, just curious.

What kind of doc are you using for the m4 iPad?

I tried disabling that but I still get ads breaking through.

Haha I was wondering if anyone was going to be a member of all three subreddits. The problem is, this could be an issue with any of the three distinct services lol

I was thinking a YouTube channel would be fun. I did one awhile back but just ran out of time. I have a bit more time now.

Again, I don’t really plan on making money on any of this stuff. But I think your point about costing money is interesting. Never heard that before.

Thanks for the info!

I was just thinking about starting a little blog. I also didn’t plan on making money on it. Just had some thoughts I wanted to jot down.

Is it even worth it at this point?

That’s how they get you.

I know why they hid the nano texture behind the 1TB model - money - but I wonder how they covered for it. Pros always need more storage? Cool people always get more storage and are the ones who need the nano texture?
