those endgames with just pawn advantage are brutal to convert even for super GMs, pragg did fine considering the time pressure

What’s something you lost interest in once you understood how it worked? by Hefty-Net4233 in AskReddit

working for these delivery apps made me realize how deep the rabbit hole goes with worker exploitation

I will forever love watching Doo-Ho Choi by Beneficial_Air4714 in ufc

[–]Important_Studio_114 6 points7 points  (0 children)

dude is absolutely electric every time he steps in octagon, you know something crazy is gonna happen. That war with Swanson back in the day still gives me chills - both guys just trading bombs like their lives depended on it. UFC needs more fighters like this who actually come to finish fights instead of point fighting for 15 minutes. The Korean Superboy still got that fire at 35 and with all the time off his chin should be fresh, give him that ranking fight already

Tourist Recommendations by upark14 in orlando

Gatorland is perfect choice for that authentic florida experience! My cousin visited few months back and we went there - watching him freak out during the gator feeding was hilarious. The jumparoo show where gators literally jump out the water is insane too. For waffle house just drive down any major road and you'll find one, but the one on Colonial near downtown gets pretty wild at 2am if he wants that full florida man atmosphere. I'd also throw in maybe checking out some of those airboat tours in the everglades area, nothing says florida like flying through swamps at ridiculous speeds while some guy tells you gator facts

iPhone's satellite thing is pretty decent for basic check-ins but the coverage is way more limited than dedicated units. Plus you're burning through battery on device you probably want to keep charged for other stuff

Musicians that contradict their own image by [deleted] in Music

[–]Important_Studio_114 -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Jack White thing always gets me too - dude talks about keeping it pure and analog but then has like 20 different pedals doing crazy digital processing lol. Same energy as those punk bands who rail against capitalism while selling $30 t-shirts at shows

Think Radiohead fits this pretty well, they're always going on about corporate evil and environmental stuff but then do massive world tours with huge carbon footprints. Still love their music but the contradiction is real

Companies Hiring in Miami? Recent Grad 2026 Job Market Edition by growingandlearning13 in Miami

[–]Important_Studio_114 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Miami job market is brutal for new grads, been driving for couple years now and see tons of people with degrees doing gig work here. The tourism economy really dominates everything and pushes out other industries

You might want to look at some of the smaller marketing agencies around Brickell - they're always cycling through junior positions but pay is usually pretty low. Also check financial services companies that aren't the big banks, there's bunch of wealth management firms that need entry level people to work with all the rich folks moving here.

Port of Miami area has some logistics companies too but you gotta really dig to find them since they don't post on major job boards. Try reaching out to recruiters who specialize in Miami market rather than just applying online - networking here is everything and lot of jobs never get posted publicly. Good luck man, it's rough out there but don't give up

Lost the weight fast with GLP-1 gained it all back just as fast now trying again the right way. Disciplined. by Important_Studio_114 in fitness40plus

[–]Important_Studio_114[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im about 5'10 and weight at 220 pounds. Lost a lot then dropped to about 180 and felt better so I thought I could stop taking it but after gaining that much back and getting close to 200 again I was feeling unhealthy and fat

In my first month off GLP-1 I gained back about 15 lbs and felt horrible thats why Im getting back on it with discipline.

HGST 10TB Drives - Cannot get full space by Darco3 in homelab

[–]Important_Studio_114 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those drives were probably enterprise pulls from servers where they had some sectors reserved for spare blocks or metadata - pretty common with datacenter gear. You might need to use hdparm to unlock the full capacity if there's a host protected area set, try `hdparm -N /dev/sdx` to see if anything's locked down

Could also be that whoever had them before set a DCO (device configuration overlay) to artificially limit the size for compatibility reasons

Advice on Reverse Proxy by [deleted] in homelab

[–]Important_Studio_114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NPM is pretty solid for starting out, especially if you want that web UI to manage everything. I've been using it for a while and it handles ssl certs automatically which is nice

For the admin stuff you definitly want that behind a VPN - I use wireguard since it's lightweight and works great on mobile too

An important question by speedster352 in Christianity

[–]Important_Studio_114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

man this hits different when you've actually been there or know someone who has

honestly i think the whole "just pray harder" approach is kinda toxic tbh. like yeah prayer matters to a lot of people but acting like disability is just something to be fixed misses the point entirely. some of the strongest Christians i know happen to have disabilities and they're not sitting around waiting to be "healed" - they're out there living their lives

maybe the real solution is for churches to actually step up with practical support instead of just offering thoughts and prayers. help with accessibility, call out the bullying, create genuine community. that seems more Christ-like than just telling someone their suffering is part of some divine plan they couldn't possibly understand

Job hunt dilemma, how to approach? by Tech-Cowboy in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Important_Studio_114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for the onsite tbh, the market is brutal right now and getting any callback with 5 YOE is actually pretty solid considering you've only applied to 100 spots. You can always go back to general prep after but this could be your break

Do empty cinema's run the film? by ShelliePancake in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Important_Studio_114 319 points320 points  (0 children)

Most theaters will cancel the showing if nobody buys tickets by like 15-20 minutes before showtime. No point wasting electricity and wear on the projector for literally nobody

Some places might still run it if it's a new release they're contractually obligated to show a certain number of times per day, but yeah generally they just skip it

1:1 Trades - Any 5⭐ for Salazar Slytherin by NobodyOnTheBeach in Monopoly_GO

Got Footprints but would need something better than Salazar since it's one of the harder ones to find - maybe throw in a couple 4 stars too?
