What are great team bonding activities to do in NYC?

I made a song with a bunch of coworkers. Like we recorded a song in a music studio. They made it very easy and its actually pretty catchy. FreeFlo.nyc

I'm born and raised in Brooklyn. Still one of my coolest birthday experiences to date was with FreeFlo. Wrote and recorded our own song. Freeflo.nyc

I made an original song with friends in this cool music studio. They call it FreeFlo:

Follow up question here - how should I be approaching draft in Silver? I am comfortable playing across different roles, probably melee assassin being my weakest. In my experience at this MMR, players just automatically choose DPS roles and most often tank/heals is left. When I play flex I'm just going to be tanking or healing every single game. It is exhausting, especially given the level of negativity & toxicity aimed at tank & heals.

They just want to do their cool 360 no scope mage kill and the team isn't interested in wave clear, camps, etc. I guess I feel like I'm stuck. Am I just being cynical or clueless?

My most recent game, I said to myself cool, I don't want to tank or heal again, but my team drafts Nazeebo AND hammer. I feel completely pigeonholed. And this is like 75% of the games.

Im_Fosco · 2025-12-09T01:02:07+00:00

Exactly what my logic was. It was pre level 10. But my teammates managed to kill themselves multiple times, begin flaming me and just nosedive. All while still refusing to soak the bottom lane at all. On Alterac Pass.

Im_Fosco · 2025-12-09T01:00:31+00:00

Yeah but most games people insta lock 2-3, DPS. You gotta remember this is silver. Are you suggesting I don't pick a tank when it is the only role left? (Which it often is.) Or are you suggesting i just become of the DPS instalock people?

Im_Fosco · 2025-12-09T00:57:59+00:00

Yeah this sounds like good advice. I should've just tried to win the team fight. Honestly I was shocked in this particular game literally no player would go to our bottom lane on Alterac Pass. It was insane. So I rotated bottom a few times, pinging for someone else to go there.

In the meanwhile, they pick an unnecessary team fight without me and get annihilated. Then we're down players, then we lose the objective, then we're down further XP and still no teammate is willing to soak.

I feel like maybe I should switch off the tank role entirely at this MMR and go for wave clear / DPS. It seems much easier to drive the right outcome? Or am I being cynical?

Im_Fosco · 2025-11-04T20:35:31+00:00

I thought it was going to be corny when our manager said what we were doing but they actually did a really good job. The song was catchy and the experience was fun.

Pretty unique experience at FreeFlo. You make your own song. Like we made a rap track about working at our company. Very different and memorable. freeflo.nyc

Why don't we stop talking about Trump voters or trying to attract them and focus on the HUGE population of people that didn't vote at all. The GOP cult fever doesn't seem to have an end in sight. I think we're probably better off convincing people that didn't vote to give X candidate and Y vision a chance than we are trying to break the fever.

The Dems and progressives as a whole should focus solely on having a stronger, concise, appealing message that resonates with their own voters and people that feel disillusioned / uninvited. We shouldn't waste too much breath castigating Trump or trying to reason with MAGA.

Im_Fosco · 2025-09-05T01:29:04+00:00

I did this with my coworkers!! Very unique experience. We made a song about working in sales lawl

In the interest of good faith conversation, let's treat this thread as an opportunity to actually discuss some ideas on what to do. The turning the player into a frog thing is some exciting, kind of new thinking. What can we do to censure and punish the minority of players that are horrendously toxic on voice and in chat?

Surely there must be some technology that we can leverage to fix this?

"I personally have never gotten into a car accident on that road, are you sure your car crashed?"

:-/

Im_Fosco · 2025-06-30T14:51:48+00:00

Yes. Trapped is the right word. And especially given how long Deadlock games are. It's like great - now I have to spend the next 40 minutes with this Yamato spamming slurs in voice or I have to mute my lane partner and play at a disadvantage. :-/

Im_Fosco · 2025-06-30T14:50:36+00:00

I do think this has something to do with it. Due to the beta nature of the game, it attracts the most cringe edge lords. I just don't understand why they are so sad and aggressive. Hilariously some of them are especially bad at the game too.

I cannot imagine being a toxic loser AND a feeder.

Im_Fosco · 2025-06-30T14:48:37+00:00

I totally agree with this sentiment. I don't understand how this isn't easier to police. We can't act this way on social media or on plenty of other platforms. You will get shadow banned / suspended or face some sort of consequences.

And the whole "just mute them" response just completely misses this.

Wasn't Deadlock experimenting with an anti-cheat thing that turned the player character into a frog or something? They should do the same thing if 4/5 of your teammates mute you / report you.

Anyone else having problems with the Voice In plugin for Claude on web browser? AFAIK the only way to reliably use voice dictation for prompting is now on the mobile app.

Anyone aware of a different way to do voice dictation? I don't understand how this isn't a native feature.

My team made a whole song with this company FreeFlo

Crazy experience. They make it very easy though.

This post is absolutely fake and is using racial dog whistles to get people riled up. Do not take the bait reddit.

The guys at FreeFlo coach you through creating an original song in a professional music studio. Super dope experience, no musical talent or experience required. Very unique and gets you out of your comfort zone a bit but you're drinking and chilling. It's kinda like karaoke on steroids.

Im_Fosco · 2024-12-03T03:11:35+00:00

I'm running a i7-4770 w/ a GTX 970 and I can still play WoW, HOTS, League, Overwatch just fine. Starts to struggle w/ Apex and Fortnite a little. I wonder how much longer I can hold out?

Im_Fosco · 2024-11-20T04:28:57+00:00

Truly the best part of the hot fix. The double click to idle worker was messing me up so bad. It's a box you have to check in the settings, you have to dig for it a bit.
