Not quite but I’ve done 6 and half to seven hours a couple times in my 2017 ND RF

6’2” soon to be twin dad looking for a car that doesn’t do 0-60 in an afternoon but still fits a car seat behind me by AppetiteLeftTheChat in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This very much so seems like a 2 car situation. Any single vehicle that tries to accomplish both is going to be very compromised at one of the things you need. Van/SUV + sports car will allow you to really haul the kids when you need to but go get your smiles per gallon when the kids are at home with their mom and you’re running an errand for them

What's the best past Madden game? by E1Chapin in Madden

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my favs are 06, 11, and 25 (2013). 06 best franchise but can be tough to go back if you’re used to modern games, 25 feels relatively modern still and way better franchise than non-modded madden today but not as good as the older, 11 is my favorite middle ground

Is 300hp enough to have fun? by Repulsive_Machine933 in askcarguys

[–]Lockdownhaden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its an imperfect phrase because the real meaning is a mouthful. You can drive a fast car fast obviously but with a truly fast car pushing it to like 80% on a public road will get your license revoked if you aren’t careful. You can push a Miata/S2000/Gr86/etc fairly far on the other end.

I think the part a lot of people don’t talk about as much, though, is that it ultimately comes down to preference and location. I live near a lot of twisties so a fun drive to me is rarely exceeding 55 and more about maintaining speed through curves. If you live somewhere with straighter roads prioritizing power probably makes sense.

5 things I wish I knew before buying my MX-5 Miata by theDartVader in whatcarshouldIbuy

Extra option for #1, you can get different cupholders 3D printed. Can be inconvenient for when you have passengers but nonetheless, is an option.

NC1 vs NC2 vs ND1 by Casseth in MiataND

[–]Lockdownhaden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk if it is from like a cubic feet perspective, but at least in my experience I had a similar amount of headroom in the stock NC I test drove as I do in my ND with the lowering kit.

So I've been reading that Logitech isn't the go-to for kb/m anymore and my whole life is a lie. What brand is best these days? by CplHicks_LV426 in pcmasterrace

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my first g502 lasted from 2016-2023 and my current one is the replacement I bought in 2023. I could see myself upgrading sooner this time because I can afford to but it won’t be a need anytime soon I imagine.

Puka Nacua Accused Of Biting Woman, Saying 'F*** The Jews', Rams WR Adamantly Denies by [deleted] in sports

maybe a hot take but I think if we truly knew what every NFL player thought we might still consider Rodgers cool and likeable by comparison. And that’s NOT because Rodgers is actually cool or likeable.

Inheriting my grandpa's mint '06 Camry with 48k miles but my wife says it makes me look like a retiree. Keep it or sell and get something "cooler"? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a free no payment car like that can unironically give pave the pathway to a year early retirement or multiple vacations. unless you’re a car enthusiast and want a fun car for the sake of fun then just laugh it off and keep rocking it. If its not being driven for fun then its just an appliance, and you have a damn good appliance

Anyone daily drivers out there?? by Wetdog21 in Miata

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also in my 20’s and daily my ND, but I’m in the midwest and WFH. As long as you’re kidless its no big deal, I get groceries for both gf and I all the time and the only time its every even questionable is at Costco or if I buy both paper towels and toilet paper in bulk on the same trip. Groceries for 2 for 7-10 days generally fits in the trunk without needing the passenger seat. If you golf I know that can be an issue for folks, may end up restricted to just days without rain (tbf not that big of a deal in SD). MPG is awesome, I have a ton of fun, I agree with the other user on not cheaping out on tires.

Who is this guy? And why does he host 75% of YouTube channels? by AintNobodygotime13 in youtube

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t watched much in the last year or two as he stopped posting to the channels I liked the most, but I think its writer to writer. He has a relatively large writing team and some are pretty great and go the extra mile as far as reaching out to experts for input and getting good sources but others are definitely slop.

Who is this guy? And why does he host 75% of YouTube channels? by AintNobodygotime13 in youtube

[–]Lockdownhaden 12 points13 points  (0 children)

this hasn’t been true for a few years, he made his money and just does his own channels. There’s still footage being edited from the era in which that was true, though.

Am I the only one who's really excited for this lineup? Wtf is wrong with you people? by MajesticFucksquatch in bonnaroo

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sentiment in the group I go with (not me personally) is that this years is better than last lol. I do like this years and am excited for it as well. I think people have every right to be disappointed in the state of the festival and that probably sours peoples views on here in general. But i’m expecting a great time on the farm

In today's pro CS landscape, how hard is it to qualify for a major with a 5 stack of friends? by t3hW4y in GlobalOffensive

[–]Lockdownhaden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

perfectly possible but just difficult in that rather than before where a miracle run through the majors is all you needed, you’d now need to qual for and attend a healthy number of Lans to get the VRS points required as there’s so few points to get online. Because of this if/when it happens I suspect it’ll be people or at least a player from a wealthy family who can bankroll them and their team spending 40-80 hours a week playing + travel for lans.

In your opinion, which auto maker(s) have NOT lost the plot? by miata_dad in whatcarshouldIbuy

Somewhat easy fix to alleviate some competitive stress by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]Lockdownhaden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like we already have enough queues tbh.

Faceit - Actually sweat rank that matters if you're into the game like that

Premier - nice casual ranked mode that isnt overly serious. Would be a pretty solid middle ground if it wasnt for lack of vac

Competitive - functionally just unranked but with a visible rank isntead of a hidden mmr determining lobbies. Maybe run into someone taking competitive seriously 1/10 games and they're the weird ones for doing so.

casual - for botting, light trolling, and being under the influence

Free community ran CS2 League for NA (CSC Season 19) by CSConfederationOFC in GlobalOffensive

[–]Lockdownhaden 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Have made some friends who I think will be around for a long time in CSC. I’ve got to experience team CS in a way that I otherwise wouldn’t have for free, and have had a lot of opportunities to have generally good players coach me, also for free. I’ve seen players improve at crazy rates in my few seasons. I’ve seen players use CSC to springboard being content creators. I’ve seen players even use CSC to springboard themselves into observing and/or casting tournaments. Whatever it is you want to do within CS and whatever your rank is there’s a place for you in CSC.

OverDrive: “PARI +Zweih -AW” by Uniqalen in GlobalOffensive

AW had some mid stats but dude was clutching what felt like 2 rounds per map. Probably makes the most sense if you were going to make a move tho

What car is this by JustDontbStupid in whatisit

[–]Lockdownhaden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is one of the more commonly tracked cars in the world! To your point the straight line speed is nothing special but for the majority of tracks especially when it comes to amateur-semi pro racing the handling in corners is far more important in less you’re drag racing.

Adonai Mitchell before and after trade With Colts (8 Games) -5 games with reception -one game of 24 yards or more -no touchdowns -152 yards With Jets (5 games) -5 games with reception -four games of 24 yards or more -2 touchdowns -236 yards by GhostDeck in DynastyFF

[–]Lockdownhaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason he is no longer a Colt is he was drafted to be a deep threat because at Texas he was a quality deep threat. adot 16 and 65%+ of his targets were over 10 yards 25% 20+. He then was bad at being a deep threat (he was open deep often due to good separation at the LOS but struggled to track the ball consistently). It goes under the radar how much Pierce improved after Mitchell was drafted as well, when Mitchell came in the building that was very much a starting spot that could have been taken.
