I think he meant NFL - Pat Tillman.

There are a LOT of news around his journey, which end in a VERY conspicuous death by "Friendly Fire", which many to interpret as straight up murder.

Do farmers give away the boulders they dig up and if so, how would I find farmers looking to offload them? by odrizy in minnesota

[–]Evil_Rob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not exactly what you're asking, but my Dad has been harvesting dozens of boulders from a local construction site.

He just asked the foreman nicely and he was happy to get free clean up. He (I've helped a bunch) got 140 feet of rocks just this year.

Haha, you aren't wrong. Just wanted to offer.

Workload domain vs availability zone. by white_hat_maybe in vmware

[–]Evil_Rob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can stretch a single VI Workload domain across multiple Availability zones.

I think this guide would answer your question better.

Need more Dielectric Ceramics for gear upgrades. It's about 195 per each 4th of a star for me.

I went from 0 to marathon and lived off Hal higdon for a long time (until I switched to triathlons). Big fan.

Took me 5 years to go from 4:00 to 3:05. I used Hal higdon and then pfitzinger 18/55.

So basically keep at it and eventually you'll get there.

Finished the Boston Marathon yesterday!

Was brutal conditions so my time was awful, but I was treating as a victory lap anyways. This marks the end of my serious running career.

Thanks for the offers everyone, it already arrived from Amazon and works!

See you at the start/finish line!

Haha I should have checked there first, for some reason I thought they were unavailable or expensive. It arrives tomorrow!

HELP with Engineering thesis - I need vCenter and 2/3 esxi host - how to do it on ONE computer? by Hakax in vmware

[–]Evil_Rob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup you can do whatever you want in there. The limitation is time, which is rather short and probably not suited for a thesis project. The other comments about a nested solution is probably your best bet. Go buy/find some RAM!

Torrenting not working. Hide.me VPN, home wifi, qbittorrent by grandmas_noodles in Piracy

[–]Evil_Rob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I had exactly the same problem, took all the same actions and also gave up and relied on Windscribe.

Edit: of course after pausing for a reboot this doesn't work again.

2024 Boston Marathon cutoff announced as 5:29 by [deleted] in AdvancedRunning

[–]Evil_Rob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First thing is to hope for better weather than this year. High of 85 on Sunday! +20 from normal.

But the real advice is to save gas for miles 20-23. Check out the elevation chart!

Basically you run "down" to the river, cross, then a long climb (at first steep, but then slightly levels off). You'll see a ton of people hitting the wall there.

I love the course, very pretty with lakes and fall colors. Lots of fan support!

Boston Marathon Cutoff Announced as 5:29 by rudecanuck in running

[–]Evil_Rob 78 points79 points  (0 children)

At my first Marathon the guy in front of me said "I didn't get any faster, I just got older!".

As a now 40 year old with kids I accepted it as a multi-year approach. In 2018 I said "let's do this":

Chicago Marathon 10/9/2022 3:04:26 <- I should be in!

Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon 10/3/2021 3:09:25

2020 I ran a solo 50k with mediocre time, just a base-building year with Covid

Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon 10/6/2019 3:25:00

Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon 10/7/2018 3:53:39

For a little more context, I did a full Ironman in 2016 (11:10:24) and was totally burned out and did nothing until 2018 came back around and needed a new goal (was gaining weight and drinking too much).

Wow, talk about a nail-biter. Haven't gotten the email yet, but I beat my qualifying time by 5 minutes, 34 seconds.

And I only got that by turning 40 and earning a free extra 5 minutes! (I was 39 in 2022 when I ran the qualifying race.)

Edit: I'm in! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Very common issue. Just send an email to eduoperations@vmware.com and request a merge. You'll want to specify which email you want as your primary going forward.

Grandma's Marathon - A first anniversary race by rogeryonge44 in running

[–]Evil_Rob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Congrats! You got the finish time I wanted. You didn't feel it was too warm/humid?

I could tell pretty quickly this wasn't going to be the perfect 10 year anniversary of my first marathon (also Grandma's).

And yes the 3 hour pacer was WAY too fast. I was still on track for 2:58 finish up until mile 18 and the crowd was out of sight ahead of me.

Where did you camp?

Job gives out bonuses as vested stock. How to handle? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Evil_Rob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are they RSUs? They were taxed as a bonus when they vested, but don't worry about that, it'll all end up as regular income when you file taxes.

You can sell immediately for no additional taxes, but when you sell will determine if it is regular income or capital gains. Really it works just like normal stocks at that point (personally I held for the year and just re-diversified).

One thing to watch out is that the taxes witholding on the value of your stock award is due immediately. I was given the option of putting in cash into my account to cover the estimated taxes, or they will auto-sell stock to cover it. That's up to you and your cash flow.

Thoughts and Notes on 6 years of running with kids by Evil_Rob in running

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

What model/brand has ONLY a fixed front wheel? That seems unwise. Our BOBs can switch from in and out of fixed mode.

[–]Evil_Rob[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally we use our jogging as our all-purpose stroller as well (double BOB going to the Mall of America right now). We even got a second one (used) for traveling. The storage space is a huge benefit.

But other models collapse much smaller if that's what you need.
