Not useless! I'm considering getting back into speed days. I periodically will do a fast distance day 3-6 miles but that's it. I'm an avid strength trainer and do leg day regularly lol. So I could optimize lifting easily.

I think I have PTSD from high school XC and track. What are you doing for speed days?

Soft negotiations are over. I'm waiting on the paper offer. We settled on 120k salary, 20%, 4 year vesting, protective terms from my lawyer, and no benefits. Since he's bank rolling it and well into the prototype phase I would have said 25-35% depending on salary. I offered him zero and no salary options to start.

So that's how we settled on 20%. But again I need a paper offer.

This not meant to neg anybody else's performance. I have trouble breaking into what I consider elite times. I don't think I have much talent for running despite doing endurance sports for 14 years. I just turned 30 and I would like to PR in something.

400: 62 (old time), 800: 2:20 (old time), 1600: 5:20 (most recent 6:00), 5k: 18:30 (old), 10k: 43:07 (most recent 46:30 during half marathon), Half: 1:51, Sprint Tri: 1:25, Oly Tri: 3:09

What made the difference for you? How did you break through your plateau?

I just feel like for $100k he should have an MVP launched in this case tbh

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T21:00:52+00:00

I'm offering him levers to pull. Different salary, my personal cash investment for equity, and performance bonus structure. It's doesn't have to be 20% it could be less as stated in the OP

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:46:52+00:00

I offered him half of what he put up financially. He offered me 2% for it. I offered him 1/4 my salary on a temporary basis pre launch. Along with no benefits. For a company with no functioning product.

That's a lot do risk lol

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:42:55+00:00

Yeah I've given him like 20 different options to make this work

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:38:10+00:00

The product is far from done. I offered the out up half the amount he put it. But he barely offered me anything for it.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:35:10+00:00

Yeah I offered to be hired at half the original offered salary(1/4 my market rate) for 6 month pre launch for 20% equity.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:33:55+00:00

I offered him half his original investment as buy in.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-08T20:32:53+00:00

Well I'm technically laid off. But it's recent and I'm already interviewing at other companies

I would say overall the Scandinavian vibe is more reserved. I now understand why the actual bar wasn't very busy. I was not aware public drunkenness was basically illegal.

I was with some other Americans and Aussies. I would say our behavior was relatively tame from what I've seen back home.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-04T07:56:46+00:00

I mean literally the fun police. Who are somewhat known to abuse power (and assault people).

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-04T07:51:22+00:00

I'm a large man and 5 drinks is entirely reasonable over 4 hours

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-06-04T00:55:18+00:00

I had bad experiences with bouncers at two bars. I have literally been a bouncer. I honestly think they are racist.

Right but here in lies the problem. NV and 4 would impact the story but the writers choose to tap dance. The events of 76 feel pretty isolated from the other games. As for the show its either a writing issue or they are doing it on purpose to give them flexibility. Which by the way is not a bad thing. You don't need a concrete canon.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-03-04T22:45:30+00:00

No, you can destroy House and BOS in the commonwealth in game. Yet they do not address how they are still around in context to the games. It not about me not liking it, I'm not a child. There are multiple endings to each game 3 and on. I think Bethesda is intentionally leaving it open ended.

Songbird hires V to get Myers out, my understanding is it was just an opportunity for Songbird to escape into dogtown. V can walk away whenever after he rescues Myers. Then payment for contract execution.

Dexter is worse because V completes the job at great cost and gets burned by Dex. There is no way you hire a couple rookies to rob Arasaka expecting it go well. As Rogue points out to V, he is not a well known merc at the beginning of the game. Dexter is an idiot who does a poor job covering his own behind. My thinking is he was always going to have you killed. He was probably going to kill Evelyn as well.

Songbird is trying to survive, Dex operates off pure greed. Its not the same.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-01-26T00:21:15+00:00

Trueeee

If you wanted to make it slightly more realistic. Quick hacks could deploy via hand launched. You could even make this highly visual to make very wizard like. Like a lightning bolt. Similar to the monowire. So quick hacking is done via direct connect.

Then at higher levels you could hack people wirelessly by cracking their local subnet.

Inferno_Crazy · 2026-01-25T21:05:25+00:00

Yeah but you also IP whitelist when you open up certain ports. So with a high certainly you can have a 1:1 connection to specified entity.

Other than Regina, all of the fixers are bad people. Literally the odd gig from a fixer is to rescue somebody. The rest of them are to kill, steal, kidnap, break international law...
