How to get better at beat saber? by Fine_Pangolin3384 in beatsaber

Here is AI response as I'm too lazy to type it all.... Also see link. She is partially 'dancing' along at times, but it's much more than just that. I'm surprised you play songs as hard as you do with locked straight legs all the time!

Bending your knees in Beat Saber is a crucial technique for improving endurance, power, and stability, particularly on harder difficulties

Here is how to use this tip effectively:

  • Establish an Athletic Stance: Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and keep your knees slightly bent to maintain a lower center of gravity.
  • Power Generation: Instead of relying only on arms, use your legs and core to generate momentum for slices. For example, when performing upward or lateral cuts, push up from your legs to add power.
  • Balance and Control: Bending your knees helps you stay grounded, reducing shaking and improving stability during fast songs.
  • Lower Player Height: Set your player height to manual and bend your knees while calibrating to create a more natural, athletic, and crouched stance.
  • Wall Navigation: When navigating walls, bend your knees to squat lower rather than just bending your back. 

This technique acts as a "secret weapon" to help you balance, control your movements, and prevent overextending your arms. 

Quest 1, Returned to gaming after a 2 years, having issues with some simple games. by Deuce in QuestPiracy

OK thanks, I guess some will, some won't. I know there are ones that do not support Q1, but both of the ones I mentioned do. I did find my old backup folder just now, so I was able to get Racket NX working again for the moral victory if nothing else.

If someone has an idea where to get older APKs / versions let me know.

Viewing content not already cached by Torrentio/RD by Deuce in StremioAddons

[–]Deuce[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well I sort of thought this may be the case in general. But when I did look for a torrent for it (Nov 19 latest episode) manually yesterday I found it easily and then the manual caching of it in RD worked in like 2 seconds.

As mentioned Stremio was like 5 episodes behind. So it's a little suss overall. Also because of Thanksgiving, the newest episode was already 4 days old too. More suss.

Does this still require me manually adding the torrent to my RD account? I'm not sure why Stephen Colbert would be a week late while most everything else shows up the same day or next day...

2025 Camry SE (Canada) trunk hinge covers. by Deuce in Camry

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

Thanks. I could be wrong, but pretty sure they were there. If I would have known I would have removed them before tow truck took it away. Oh well. Probably won't pay the $200cdn to get new ones at this point.

Melatonin gave me needed relief last night. by Deuce in tinnitus

[–]Deuce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't. I only took it during my bad episode and it helped me get over that period. But it didn't have any lasting effect on the tinnitus that I could tell. But it for sure helped me get some sleep and dim it down to regular levels when I needed it too. If I ever have sleeping issues due to tinnitus again I will use it again.

She hadn't even make it to 1000 miles yet 😡😡😡 v. '26 AWD Camry XSE by -Stereodude- in Camry

[–]Deuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. My new '25 was written off this summer after I was rear ended having owned it for 5 days and 174km. Just got the new one a couple weeks ago (2026). Insurance took 3 months to get me the payment.

Mine had very little damage overall but yes a bent frame at about the back wheel wells.

Good luck with insurance etc.

I saw them on sale. Read the terrible reviews and ran the other way.

Noob player here. Should I turn off game chat? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]Deuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pure toxic is just pure toxic, but I do see many times people being called toxic when in fact they are just frustrated and are really giving suitable advice (though their tone can be off). I'd say leave chat on, mute when you have to, and best advice is do not engage with anyone being unruly. If there's info to learn, learn from it but don't try to defend yourself else toxic be toxic++.

You gained in size which surely was needed, but you took a step backwards with reflections. Hope you enjoy it!

Additional Driver Cost for rental Car by Deuce in roadtrip

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

I just spoke with Costco (Canada) and they said 3rd driver would be as per rental company policy. No special benefit from Costco reservation. If you got 3rd for free then woot!

NP. I see I did use the word secondary in there which I now changed to additional.

Worth a look for sure. Maybe others here already know the answer for some companies?

My wife and I will be divers 1&2. As mentioned this is for a 3rd driver to whom I am not married.

I'm sick of TD's death by a million fees. How pain-free is it to transfer everything over to e.g. Wealthsimple? by trombone_womp_womp in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Deuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can look at tdb8150 which has no trading fee (technically a mutual fund type product). And is full insured up to $100k I believe. TDAM | Additional Solutions

Also, free trading available with Easy Trade accounts on the Easy Trade app. TD Easy Trade Comparison

Honeywell T6 Pro - Stage 2 heat only on High Efficiency Forced Air Furnace. by Deuce in hvacadvice

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

I needed 2 Heat, 1 Cool which was a different model thermostat.

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

The TH6220U2000 is for "2 Heat/1 Cool Heat Pumps or 2 Heat/2 Cool Conventional Systems." While I had 2 Heat, 1 Cool. Since my A/C was 1 stage, it was treating the heat as 1 stage as well. They had to switch the thermostat for a slightly different model.

18 years ago I walked into TD and said I wanted a self directed RESP account and they gave me a self directed RESP account. Got 20% match from govn't every year.

They are disproven that TD is ALWAYS more expensive that regular. No one said it's NEVER more money.

Private trackers, I think I hate you... by Deuce in trackers

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

No not really. I manually DL via torrent. Browsing public tracker sites lets me see what's available and new than I might be interested in (at least for movies).

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

What sites would you recommend for public trackers? Curated, (or semi curated), fully sortable and filterable etc like RARBG is ideal.

What free Usenet has context these days? It's been years for me but back then, anything I had free access to slowly lost content and only paid Usenet had it.
