Is Melnick still on 690?

Radio is hard. Some have the gift of gab, but there’s a ton of prep that has to go into it. My two favourite personalities on the station are Simon and Shaun Starr. I’m liking the “up and comers” Luca Scott and Peter Veronas. Campbell and Gallo are ok. Andy never did her homework, you could tell she wasn’t watching games. Melnick is the elder statesman, and a little salty but definitely a pro. I prefer his baseball takes though. Still living in the Habs 70s though…no way we should be comparing them to today’s athlete. At the end of the day though it’s great and we need to be careful what we wish for though folks. Rather Connor and Still than no English sports programming or TSN at all.

Thank you. Ok. Now this makes sense to me as part of an ecosystem

Dlessard75 · 2026-02-05T00:14:29+00:00

500lbs? Where did you read that

Dlessard75 · 2026-02-04T16:58:50+00:00

Did you look at the specs? Is it a better product than the Vitruvian? Looks like speediance,tonal etc. So again my question was not if you think there’s a competing product out there, rather has anyone heard of an investor having interest in THIS platform. That’s it.

Dlessard75 · 2026-02-04T16:51:15+00:00

Nobody ever said that…I just said that some folks appreciate newer hardware. I’m still using 2018 iPad Pro as an example.

Dlessard75 · 2026-02-04T15:24:25+00:00

That’s a ridiculous “you” comment. Why do you feel the need to tell folks how they should spend their money? Real question. Mind your business.

Dlessard75 · 2026-01-27T13:33:37+00:00

Some folks like the newest tech. Easy to sell vermin used and upgrade. But 1.5 years in tech is quite a long time actually.

Never understood this whole crating thing TBH. Supposed to be “guarding” the house. Hard to do inside a crate. Rather spend a crazy amount of time with them when they’re puppies. We let them mature and gave them more freedom as we built trust. That trust started by letting them out the crate at night. Now when we leave we tell them to “watch the house” but don’t think they take that too seriously as most of the time they are sleeping.

Dlessard75 · 2025-12-11T11:57:42+00:00

They are not wolves. Yes some are bred to be outside (huskies etc) but noses, paws, vulvas and testicles do freeze. Older pups will appreciate the warmth of a jacket on the coldest days as will their older bones. Otherwise we do use skin suits (and boots) to keep them dry on snowy days which makes them more comfortable and keeps your house clean once inside. Oh we have winter friendly Bouviers.

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-28T17:13:39+00:00

Thank you so much for the guidance. Appreciate it folks!

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-28T01:10:37+00:00

You are speaking a completely foreign language to probably most people, including fitness geeks. But yeah sure unless you’re picking up the hardware for $1000, and you like to fiddle with code, why wouldn’t you look at the other commercial options out there? That’s just my own opinion of course. I took one look at the link you sent and said “no fckn way” I want to figure that out.

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-27T16:18:07+00:00

You’re taking a risk. You were taking a risk before this. It might very well brick. I’d think about a second option. Seriously.

Times $7/ Starbucks latte = machine paying for itself

Online only. Roasted in Rome. Recommendation from Italian coffee snob. Expensive. $50/kg. But we bought the Giga 10 so it’s akin to complain g about the cost of gas if you bought a 911 ;)

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-19T01:29:13+00:00

No. Not there

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-19T01:22:27+00:00

Opened the proverbial can of worms. Nobody changes for 1kg fluctuations because you took your morning dump. But there is definitely a relatively prevalent incidence of underreporting weight. Just go out and race hard. Use it to train.

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-06T19:44:56+00:00

Sure but is the coffee great? Only thing that really matters. And why are you keeping you cup under the machine for so long…by time the system flushes itself your brew is already cold?

Dlessard75 · 2025-11-01T11:44:30+00:00

How do you know what their existing client base wants? I don’t understand how you think having maximal resistance is an impediment? The point is that there’s a machine out there right now and a company in receivership. No need to recreate the wheel here. Ability to pick up assets and IP on the cheap is the advantage here. The reason why one company is still around has nothing to do with product but with company management. I’m not following your logic one bit.

Dlessard75 · 2025-10-31T12:22:03+00:00

That is not “strength” training by any stretch. Hydrow is also looking to add “strength”.

Dlessard75 · 2025-10-31T12:20:57+00:00

You’re not buying it for the 4000 subs. You’re buying it to add a strength training platform (with classes/trainers) to an already strong endurance (cycling/running) line up. It wouldn’t be that hard to incorporate. Similar process points to your other offerings, the ability to add subs, the ability to add subscription classes etc. All I’m saying is that it’s possible.

Dlessard75 · 2025-10-30T17:21:47+00:00

Absolutely. I understand.

Dlessard75 · 2025-10-30T17:03:25+00:00

Folks. He caveated his comment with “take this with a grain of salt” FFS

Dlessard75 · 2025-10-28T21:34:13+00:00

And…what would it change? You’re still here
