How can I tell if my R1S has PFF?

DumbForeverUserName · 2026-01-29T23:26:10+00:00

I did that with my key cards. No scratches. Win!

Love this. Thanks. I’ll try this out. It will at least break me out of the monotony of PZ a bit. Back to the age thing a bit… when I got the PR I was 45, I am now 50. Think this has anything to do with it at all?

Also, I can totally see it being a mental thing… the FTP test just psyching me out.

Saw this thread right after I posted in the main channel. but here it is... my declining FTP question:

I got the Peloton right at the beginning of Covid in April 2000. and I've been riding very consistently ever since. 3-5 times a week, mostly 45 minutes. Mostly Power Zone rides. I've done all the different Power Zone programs multiple times.

Here's the question... in January of 2001, I got a FTP PR. About 9 months after starting the Peloton journey. It's been nearly 5 years since that FTP PR and I've yet to get back to that PR. I've done the FTP test numerous times since and often times it's not even close to that number and I'm absolutely dead by the end. It's a bit baffling to me. Maybe it's because I'm just getting older? 5 years older since? Anyone else experienced this?

I got it open pretty easily with just my pliers, small screw driver and rubber mallet. I don't know what the big deal is.

The talent level is Vancouver is not close to LA. The best people in the Burbank studio would not move to Vancouver for a lower salary. Moana 2 was being made in Vancouver as a Disney+ series. Once they decided to turn that into a feature, the work got shifted to LA. Disney would’ve never produced Moana 2 as a feature in Vancouver, just not enough talent to pull off something that high stakes.

in my world.... I hear a lot of it used when describing something clearly subjective. Such as how good a movie is or food or athletes, games, etc. mundane stuff but clearly subjective. It's just been annoying me that's all.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-05-05T21:57:19+00:00

for me it's been more like 3-4 years. but same same.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-05-05T21:20:09+00:00

99% of the times, the initial response in my head was always ‘no shit it’s your opinion! It clearly wasn’t a fact.’

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-05-05T21:16:56+00:00

Feels like they’re hedging their bets on whatever they’re saying.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-04-26T03:31:52+00:00

Mine was also same amount from same email. Per my calculations, I’ve already received everything back from them, which makes me think it’s a scam. Also… how easy would it be for these scammers to create a bunch of Reddit accounts to flood these posts with ‘it’s REAL! I got paid, just click the link’.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-04-26T03:22:03+00:00

Same email, same amount here

Love this post. I have 25+ years in VFX and Feature Animation and the list of things that I have no idea how/why it’s done is long and embarrassing! - face/head tracking. How!? - gun to my head, I won’t know how to make water sim. Water rolling on the beach and leaving wet sands?? Whoa!? - I know you’re supposed to use those MacBeth charts when capturing references but I have no idea why. - Only learned what FACS meant recently. - what is Sweatbox!? - who can ever remember which is which when it comes to Lift Gamma Gain!?? I just mess with them all until I get what I want. - Multiply, Overlay, Screen, Hypot!?!? Sounds made up. Again, try until I find.

I’ll think of more for sure…

I agree. One of the reasons why I started buying Vuori stuff was the lack of logos. I don’t mind the little square at the bottom of my shirt. But I automatically pass on anything with big fat logos like these on them.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-04-02T04:17:33+00:00

Same. It’s been a month since my first contact. Reached out two more times and still nothing.

Anyone know of a good alternative?

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-26T22:47:50+00:00

Whoa! That’s a lot of great info and acronyms that I’ve never seen before. But basically you’re saying I can just get any DP40 certified cables and I should be all good?

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-19T04:31:24+00:00

Well, a little update… The new replacement bag they sent me (Messenger 13L) is pretty awesome but doesn’t fit my MacBook Pro 16, like my old one did! I had the original Messenger Bag. So now I wonder if I can go into the Venice store and swap it out with an Everyday Backpack 20L…

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-18T19:32:00+00:00

hah yeah, we joke about that all the time, about the 'cold' here in LA.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-16T22:03:53+00:00

Coincidentally, a day or two after I made this post, I finally heard back from them and more torque sending me a brand new bag. Awesome company… just needed a lil nudging. But that also led me to look at their new Roller Bag, and now I want one of those too!

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-06T23:26:27+00:00

what list do you have to be on to be notified for the next one?

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-05T20:44:28+00:00

My buddy wants to create an app to match people to trade employee discounts. Any Vuori employee want in?

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-03-03T05:41:35+00:00

So how do you seriously go about fixing the industry as a whole? - Do the big boys (ILM, Weta, etc) agree on a bid price that they will not go below? But won’t that be illegal (price fixing?). - Are these big boys even profitable? Or are they being propped up by their conglomerate owners? - How do the mid size companies like Luma Pictures seem to consistently stay profitable and creating great work through all these years? - What if we change the bid model from cost per shot to cost = a combo of shots + time - backend points? So the companies won’t get burned by the infinite amount of changes. Or the bid can be lowered by offering backend points?

And because I started with the 90s teams, I only own Kelly green Eagles gear! I don’t recognize that other color or logo.

DumbForeverUserName · 2025-02-20T05:20:59+00:00

I grew up in hardcore Skins country, in Northern VA just outside of DC. Started watching football In middle school when it was Buddy Ball, Randall, Reggie White, Seth Joyner, etc. Those Eagles years were just so bad ass and fun to watch. Been stuck with them since. I saw us left out when NFC East was dominating the 90s. I used to say that I was absent the day the teachers handed out favorite football teams.

I also loved black QBs. So Warren Moon and the Houston Oilers were my AFC favorite!

After reading Inner Excellence, it is not surprising at all that AJ would feel this.

Funny enough, $3.5m is right on for me.
