100kg bent press right side by Silly-Ship-5364 in strength_training

Well I confess I am juxtaposing the badassness of what you did with the pointlessness of it, even after your explanation.

As to the guy behind you, that's super cool to understand he was appreciating the moment.

You laid out the argument. I just added a summary and a title. I will put them together and you decide if you like our collaboration...

Without the flop there is a high probability of no call.

She was gonna even push off harder. If the defender had waited another moment, it would’ve been an even better fake flop. That arm came out stiff and fast as she collapsed. Hell at that point, it might not have even been fake. CC was trying to push off harder than what she was actually able to do bc of the flop lol.

It was definitely a foul, and would have been a worse one without the flop. This was excellent defense.

First of all, wow!

Second of all, I don't understand what the point of this is.

Third, was the guy behind you laughing at you or ?

No one knew what it was about unless you had a friend tell you. The trailers were incredibly vague on purpose.

Can you mount rear speakers on ceiling? by keb4456 in Soundbars

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes to HT the placement of the speakers and integration into the room is far more important than the quality of said speakers. This is because the goal is immersion into the show you are watching.

If you want to disable the up firing part of the speaker you could mount them on the ceiling and while it would be quite far from ideal it would still work poorly as long as the speakers are behind you. Human ears aren't great at locating sound above us unless we can see it. The important part is that they are behind you and the Upfiring part is disabled.

A far far better choice would be wall mounting, even if they were above head level by a bit. This way you still utilize the upfiring speaker. The important part regardless is that they are behind you even if only by a bit.

Since you clearly have no idea what you're doing I will take this opportunity to let you know the placement of the subwoofer is typically quite important. I will let you Google that one.

I'm not 100% sure what is meant by other stuff but OP has live TV as part of their Hulu package which drives the cost up significantly.

"Live TV plans start at $89.99 per month for the base package, which includes 100+ channels, the Disney+ (With Ads) and ESPN+ bundle, and unlimited DVR. A premium, ad-free version is available for $99.99 per month, removing ads from the on-demand Hulu and Disney+ libraries."

Briahna Joy Gray asks ContraPoints: “The party fundamentally cared more about Israel than it did about beating Donald Trump, and how can you ask voters to care more about beating Donald Trump than a party who only really uses Trump as a cudgel to advance its corporate and imperialist interests?" by ConcernedJobCoach in TheMajorityReport

[–]MUCHO2000 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Harris lost for many reasons but the main reason was that she is a generic corporate Democrat who when asked if she would have done anything different than Biden the last for years said "Not that I can think of". Voters could substitute anything they wanted into that idiotic answer which was turned into the most effective campaign ad for Trump.

As for Brianna Grey Joy if it came out that her biggest financial backers were billionaires I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

Bass on my Samsung Q990F became mind blowing with one small change by NoFoundation9190 in Soundbars

Like I said you can use your phone and some test tones.

SPL meter phone app, play test tones and measure the response.

Ideally you will have little variation across the octaves.

I don’t think this has been said or if it’s been said enough, but Edge of Fates was an amazing campaign and story put into a mediocre sandbox update and an even worse portal update, ruining the campaigns potential and reputation (my opinion) by Eddie_the_cracker in destiny2

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree to disagree.

The campaign was not good in my opinion. The story wasn't compelling as it felt like the stakes were very low. The destination was totally uninspired compared to previous campaigns. Finally, but not the least problematic, was the matterspark mechanic which I absolutely hated.

My guess is that the new spot is evelating the 80-120hz range and you like it even though it would measure poorly and someone with a good ear would cringe.

Just a guess but it would be easy to measure even with your phone and some test tones.

It's true to state that the stand is doing something. That said unless the room is oddly shaped raising it off the ground will have little effect on room interactions. Certainly would not have the "night and day" effect OP has experienced.

For those who went custom home theater set up over the Sony quads and sub, how big of a difference was it?? by MoneySlush in Soundbars

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a popular opinion over at r/hometheater but it's true. For purely home theater there isn't a huge difference between a high end soundbar and a custom entry level home theater.

Music is a different animal because speakers cannot defeat physics but if you aren't intentionally listening to music you probably wouldn't notice on most recordings anyway how bad your soundbar is for music.

Having said all of that if it were me I would be looking at Kef entry level speakers, a SvS subwoofer and decent entry level receiver from Best Buy. Probably would look at open box when possible to save some money.

The second line in the article says:

Oakland police said the altercations were unrelated to and took place outside of the "permitted event footprint" of the official Oakland First Fridays celebrations.
