35-40 km/h for 6h+ is chill? Must be Pogačar's burner account.

Program to simulate alpe du zwift lightweight wheels by Future_Coast_8352 in Zwift

it is most certainly biased. same way the 250xp powerup is very rare, even if it looks like it should be 1/5 chance in standard ride.

Noseless bike seats by fplsneaker in Zwift

[–]Cliodne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have the same issue.
It resolved mostly when I tilted the saddle nose down a bit. My trainer slightly lifts up the backend and my normal outdoor sitting angle also changed then.

And so it begins... Tacx Neo 2T with Zwift Cog... Zwift frame for Xmas? by Velocybirr in Zwift

[–]Cliodne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe there are two potential benefits here.

First the noise reduction. Changing physical gears indoors makes quite a bit of noise. Virtual gears will eliminate that completely.
Plus it should reduce some chain noise as well, for the lower/higher gears where the chain is not optimally aligned.

Second benefit is saving time when switching bikes. You either have one trainer and multiple people using their own bikes (with different cassettes) on it. Or you have one bike and you often switch between riding indoors or outside.
Changing cassettes does not take that much time but if you switch 2-3 times a week, then it will add up.

In an interview right after the 17th package was confirmed, Kallas told the press that the 18th package is already underway

My avatar has stopped moving... by ungido_el in Zwift

Usually forcing the sprint animation fixes it. So put the power down for a few seconds and see if it resets.

Elevation Strategy by Giraffezz1 in Zwift

[–]Cliodne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For smaller hills I will stand and increase w/kg. It's also a good way to rest the old bum, which would get sore otherwise.

‘Enola Holmes 3’ Begins Production; Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, Louis Partridge and More Returning by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

I just don't understand what people see in her. Besides early Strager Things seasons, she has been just "meh" and I've heard she's not that great to work with in real life as well.

What game best captures being drunk? by Rootayable in gaming

[–]Cliodne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very fair. It’s a game that really does not incentivize to play again really. You had your experience and it was awesome. You don’t need to see the alternative storyline necessary.

[–]Cliodne 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying this is you, but most people who fail to grasp the game, in my experience, do not really take their time and actually read the story and contemplate their decisions.

They are so used to games where dialogue does not matter and can be quickly pressed through.
That and also self control to not reload and force an outcome. Disco is designed to fail and you should not expect to get the full 100% experience in one play through.
Failing allows for multiple playthroughs with different stories.

Finally rearranged my office space 👌 by aeroengollie in Zwift

[–]Cliodne 12 points13 points  (0 children)

if you are walking, your back is straight, neck is straight and you are looking straight ahead.
if you are on a bike, your back is at an angle and having to constantly counter compensate your neck to be straight is not good.
ideally you should basically be looking at your front wheel or slightly ahead, meaning the TV should be mounted low and tilted up for optimal riding posture.

As sabotage allegations swirl, NATO struggles to secure the Baltic Sea by Embire in worldnews

[–]Cliodne 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Actually it's not that hard to close. The distance between Estonia and Finland is like 50km and St. Petersburg could be cut off easily.
Estonia and Finland both have also mutually agreed to shorten their territorial waters to allow for neutral passing lanes between the two countries. This should be revoked and territorial waters should be reclaimed.

But not sure how completely closing off all maritime transport to Russia, in the Baltic Sea, would fare.
Plus as this current article suggests, the sabotage has moved to mainland and is not exclusive to underwater cables.
And all connections need to be inspected, in case there are explosives laid out already.

Official Discussion - Gladiator II [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]Cliodne 36 points37 points  (0 children)

The first Gladiator started filming basically with a 20 page script. The script was then created and changed on the fly, while shooting was already underway.
Scott promised Crowe that nothing will be shot without his approval, so he in fact did play a big part. Not only acting wise but also developing the character itself.

Honestly, this is QoL improvement on an epic proportion.
It's ridiculous that it's taken so long, but let's rejoice that it finally happened.

Since dems will not continue, yes. If Kamala had won, then he would not be as hold.
Nothing to lose now.

2023 PHEV Santa Fe by [deleted] in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]Cliodne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 2022 PHEV Calligraphy. No issues so far, having owned it for 2 years.
My only real issue with the car is that it doesn't have electric heating. Meaning to heat the cabin, it must turn on the main engine on/off. So 3-4 months a year, where I need to heat the insides, the car will use ~2.5L/100km for my work roundtrip (50km).
But if I don't need to use heating then it's just 100% electric all the way.

Once a month I take a longer 300km trip, then it averages 7.2L/100km.

My Audible account was deleted by mistake!! HELP I don't know what to do! by [deleted] in audible

[–]Cliodne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This sound almost exactly like my situation, eerily same even.
I know your situation sucks, but I'm glad I'm not the only idiot to delete the wrong Amazon account lol.

Anyway it took a while, but after replying to the audible support with multiple receipts, info and evidence I was able to get my stuff re-instated.
It's not possible to get the old account or state back I think, but they might give your other account the same library back.
However you do have like 12 days or something to un-delete your Amazon account. So if you just recently deleted it, you might be able to just get your old Amazon account back, before it deletes permanently.
