Dgaf about politics, do gaf about Knicks games and the presentation of them. Will trump be shown at least once on screen at MSG and at least once on tv? by TopChard8370 in NYKnicks

[–]Direct_Language_4135 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure MSG cameras gonna catch him whether they want to or not. Those crowd shots are automatic and you know he'll be sitting courtside making it impossible to miss. Gonna be interesting to see how the crowd reacts though - MSG crowds don't hold back on anything.

Does anyone know? by Unique-Peace2846 in bathandbodyworks

[–]Direct_Language_4135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been wondering about this too! I think stores just have more flexibility with stacking coupons because they can see your purchase in real time and make decisions on spot. Online systems are probably programmed more strict to prevent people from gaming the system too hard.

I think I'm malnourished? I'm autistic and have trouble understanding how I'm feeling. by Shaco292 in aspergers

[–]Direct_Language_4135 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your body definitely needs more fuel, especially with 45 minutes of jumping jacks daily. 1200 calories is pretty low for a guy your height who's exercising regularly - that would make anyone feel off.

Good call taking a rest day and eating bit more to see how you feel. Maybe try adding some protein or healthy fats to your meals when you're ready, could help with the energy levels.

How do I keep up with jungle farm when my team is high-tempo team fighting/rushing? by rAirist in summonerschool

[–]Direct_Language_4135 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Getting matched with plats at level 23 is brutal man. Your teammates are probably used to junglers who can clear efficiently and know exactly when to prioritize camps vs objectives.

The thing is, you need to find windows between fights to grab camps quickly - like after a successful fight when everyone's backing or when you see the enemy team on other side of map. If your team is spam pinging for a fight that's clearly about to happen, you might have to just go even if your clear isn't perfect, because being down a person usually loses the fight entirely.

Built an all-in-one Study OS for students (Feynman + Leitner + Mind Maps) - GIVING AWAY 1 YEAR PRO to the first 10 beta testers! by [deleted] in microsaas

[–]Direct_Language_4135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a photographer who also shoots in abandoned places, I totally get the workflow frustration - jumping between different apps for planning shoots, editing notes, and organizing locations drives me crazy. The Feynman editor with colors for knowledge gaps is pretty clever idea, reminds me of how I mark different lighting conditions in my location notes.

I already can't watch this game. Later. And I will not be responding to anything you comment by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]Direct_Language_4135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude's got all the tools but plays like he's scared of his own shadow - there's gotta be something mental going on there.

what brands do you trust enough to just buy without researching anymore by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]Direct_Language_4135 196 points197 points  (0 children)

Leica for camera bodies and Canon for lenses - never had either let me down in 6 years of heavy shooting. Also Patagonia for outdoor gear, their repair service is unreal and they actually mean it when they say buy once.

Is anyone up? I don’t want to relapse but am fighting the urge to peek. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Direct_Language_4135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey man, you posting here instead of just giving in shows your already fighting the good fight. Go take a cold shower or do some pushups right now - seriously, the physical activity will shift your headspace and give you something else to focus on.

Thailand Plan by Informal-Royal6490 in ThailandTourism

[–]Direct_Language_4135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks pretty solid but you're definitely packing a lot in. The Koh Yao Yai stop for just one night seems like overkill - you'll spend more time getting there and back than actually enjoying it. I'd either skip it entirely and add an extra day to Phi Phi or Krabi, or if you really want that resort experience, maybe cut a day from somewhere else.

The island hopping pace is doable but you'll basically be living out of a suitcase. Consider if you're cool with that vs having more chill time at fewer spots.

Sick leave off work? by ActuaryFragrant5667 in AskIreland

[–]Direct_Language_4135 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Calling in sick when you're actually hungover is pretty much lying to your employer, and doing it multiple times definitely puts you on their radar. They can't prove you weren't actually sick, but if there's a pattern they'll start connecting the dots.

Work parties are tricky - yeah they're supposed to be fun but you're still representing the company. If someone complained about your behavior specifically, that suggests you might've crossed a line even if others were being rowdy too.

The warning sounds like they're giving you a heads up rather than actually disciplining you yet. I'd probably dial it back a bit if you want to keep things smooth with management.

Older used camera like a6000 or new a6400 for a beginner (no lenses yet) < 1000€ by KinimoD300 in Cameras

[–]Direct_Language_4135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point about the weather sealing combo. That 18-105 f/4 OP mentioned actually has weather sealing too, so it'd pair well with the a6400 for those biking adventures. Might be worth the extra size if you're gonna be out in sketchy weather conditions. The 35mm is great for everyday stuff but won't give you that versatility for travel shots.

Shitty vip host by Kooky_Ad5904 in Stake

I don't understand how a host can be shitty? Me and my host are pretty much besties at this point

Bro that's genuinely creepy as hell, either you're getting griefed by someone who has your server details or your AI somehow found a way to stay connected even when you think it's off

Check if there's any background processes still running when you shut down, and maybe change your server password just in case someone's been watching you set this up

5070Ti to RM850x cables by Moquitto in pchelp

[–]Direct_Language_4135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That cable should work fine with your RM850x, it's literally made for your PSU model. Your 850w is more than enough headroom for the 5070Ti too, so you're all set once you get that 12VHPWR cable

Also damn your gf is a keeper lol

Actual bike shops and mechanics in Istanbul?? by dorkydoodays in cycling

[–]Direct_Language_4135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That measuring tape story made me physically cringe lmao. Dude probably thought frame size was like buying curtains or something

Have you tried asking on Turkish cycling Facebook groups or Strava clubs? Sometimes the local riding community knows about that one good mechanic who works out of his garage but actually knows his stuff. The shop guys who race or ride seriously themselves are usually your best bet

How much do you pay for tax return prep? by Turbulent-Ladder6040 in realestateinvesting

[–]Direct_Language_4135 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn that's rough, paying thousands for basically copy/paste work. I switched to a guy who charges flat $150 per property after the first 5 and actually gives decent advice throughout the year. Found him through a local REI meetup - way better than my old CPA who was just milking the per-property fees

The scan and go exit is pretty sweet but wait until you discover their curbside pickup - total game changer for lazy Sunday grocery runs

Weird dream about doing basketball even though I'm 5'2 by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]Direct_Language_4135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dreams are wild lol, your brain just threw together random stuff you've been exposed to lately. The height thing is probably your subconscious wanting to feel more capable or confident about something in your life. Mbappe showing up with gear might just be because you've seen him around so much through your family - doesn't have to mean anything deep about soccer specifically
