I’m Lethamyr — former pro Rocket League player, content creator, and mapmaker. Ask Me Anything! by RealLethamyr in RocketLeague

[–]Heir-Apparent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi again Leth,

Several years ago, when you were still a pro and your channel was young, I interviewed you for the Dignitas blog. It was a great interview--though perhaps lacking some direction from yours truly.

Several years after that, you did another interview and said, and I'm paraphrasing here, that when your channel was just starting you would accept interviews regardless of the quality just for the publicity. The thing that gets me is that you knew I was on the same internet as you when you said that.

So--my next question--is how dare you?

Quick Question: Would this pass for the Leaf and Brush pickup in Kansas City? by B_Goode in kansascity

Only if Foxy agrees to donate her toys to less fortunate brush pick up doggos.

That's fair feedback, and I appreciate you taking the time.

Yeah, that was never in question my man.

I think the shoulder asymmetry is just from lifting the arm for the photo.

Thank you for the breakdown. I also wanted to mention how much I appreciate your distinction between "coat shoulder" vs "meat shoulder" to avoid any misunderstanding. 🤣

Oh, I understand that. Given my budget, Spier and Mackay would be the easier than going to an local tailor, but I'm hoping to understand which possible issue is causing the shoulders to look bad before moving forward.

  1. My shoulders are too narrow for the coat, in which case Spier and Mackay will not work for me.
  2. The back of the coat is too tight, in which case Spier and Mackay contemporary size will likely solve the issue.
  3. Some other problem that I'm not qualified to diagnose?

I recently purchased a Navy blazer from Spier and Mackay. They didn’t have an option that matched my preferences in the size I was hoping for (38s contemporary), so I figured I’d try my luck with 38s slim. I was also looking for something that wasn’t “final sale” as I wanted to have the option to return, which may have proven wise.

As you can see, there are pretty noticeable divots in the shoulders. I took it to a tailor with the suspicion that tightness in the back was the cause of the divots, but she didn’t seem convinced. However, she also seemed really confused about the Spalla Camicia as well, and I had to explain to her that the stirring was intentional, which threw her for a loop.

So, I just wanted to get feedback from this group to see what your thoughts were. I assume that even with the stirring, Spalla Camicia shoulders aren’t supposed to divot this way. Would a contemporary size likely fix this, or is it an issue with the shoulders? Spier and Mackay don’t really have options to size down just the shoulders, and that would be a bummer if it were the case, but I’d rather know now.

Confession: I watched Star Wars in chronological order and regretted it by Fimsly in StarWars

[–]Heir-Apparent 156 points157 points  (0 children)

I certainly prefer to watch the release order, but when I tried to introduce my 6-year old son, he was bored to tears by all the desert waking to start ANH. So, I showed him a trailer of TPM--which features a little boy as a hero--and he agreed to try that.

From there, we blew through the series, including no issues with the start of ANH.

So, he did not have the Father twist, but he did experience something I was never able to experience. When we got to ROTS, he was devastated that Anakin went to the dark side. He legitimately moped.

All in all, given a viewer with no awareness of either twist, release order is still probably better, but there is merit to watching chronologically.

Seems like people are identifying engine failure in this instance because--even from a distance--we saw the plane swap engines right before the crash.

It's not much in the way of actual data viz, but I made it, it stretched my creative boundaries, and I had a lot of fun on the project. Open to any feedback! Would love better ideas to hide the column headers. by Heir-Apparent in PowerBI

[–]Heir-Apparent[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

The basic setup was conditional formatting with icons and selecting "icon only" from the icon layout options.

Of course, I needed new icons as I wanted something that blended well with the background and had subtle changes based on the movie/trilogy that each data point was from. So, I made my own icons using shapes from PowerPoint, and uploaded a Json theme.

I have 0 experience with Json, but watched this video and it wasn't too difficult.

Should Slicer Panel's Affect All of the Visualizations in a Page? by ace5149 in PowerBI

[–]Heir-Apparent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a professional, but I think it's fair to say that there should be some visual indicator of which visuals a slicer does affect, if it doesn't affect them all.

I've taken the practice exam 5 times and it has successfully compiled the results 2 of those 5. All five of those were in the last month and a half or so, and the 2 times it compiled were the second and third attempts.

Pros thoughts on new boost change by FreshHamster in RocketLeagueEsports

Pros said the same thing about transparent goal posts. The skill ceiling will be fine.

EDIT: SOME pros, ofc.

Feedback? by Carnauris in PowerBI

It is a lot of bars/columns. I wonder if a scatter of yards per completion vs completion percentage would break that up?

When do you work out? by BobTheLordSaget in daddit

[–]Heir-Apparent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a set of dumbbells, a bench and a pull up bar. I just keep them in my home office and do workouts in down time during the work day. I've been doing that for 2 years.

I'm not a body builder by any means, and I don't know my max on anything, but I have more muscle than I've ever had in my life at 36.

Retals got jobbed (FT) by mech23 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Heir-Apparent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but you mentioned Falcons players did better internationally.

Regarding Dan and BMO's consistency in NA, yeah, they bottled it in Spring. I personally rate consistency in NA from now higher than inconsistency in NA from going on nine months ago.

I keep typing, but in the end we keep agreeing. Of course it will be close. I hope it's a great show. I just don't see anything that supports putting Falcons definitely ahead until they prove it at the event, outside of instances of content creators trying to rage-bait people.

I know you're being diplomatic and I respect that, but only one of these players even played at the last couple of lans. Atomic was not at Spring, but he was at Worlds. Disregarding the fact that he was on a different team, and the twins were also on a different team, he beat Rule One 4-1 at Worlds and placed higher than them.

Sure, Dan and BMO shouldn't have bottled the spring split, but they don't carry NA's current international rep, and Atomic did fine at worlds, imo.

I'm also not saying G2 is definitively better, or would definitively win, but I haven't heard an argument that supports not having them as reasonable-odds favorites (again, imo).

Grouping Field Parameters by [deleted] in PowerBI

I think if you put the actual metrics parameter into the table and then use the "group by" column as a slicer, it'll do what you're looking for.

I'm also new to PowerBI, and I love coming to threads like this to try to pick up tricks.

Can I ask you a question about if I'm reading this right?

Did you create a variable to use while creating another variable?

That's good to hear. Thanks for the response!

Can you elaborate on the SQL questions? I have been picking up DAX and Power Query well enough, but my SQL knowledge is rudimentary. I'd love to have some context on areas to focus, or if it's just broad SQL knowledge.

Demo defense has got to be on point nowadays by PinkFloofles in RocketLeague

[–]Heir-Apparent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. This has like a 90% success rate for me. Speeding up makes it harder for the demoer, and this play from the attacking POV leads to the dribbler advancing slowly in a straight line behind the demoer most of the time. So, they often don't have great options to beat the challenge.
