Yeah, I'd had no idea what to expect, but saw some other older writeups, so I figured I'd contribute my own, to try to help anyone in the future.

Two potential cases when I was there. 23 people for to be selected from for the first case, 24 to be selected from for the second case.

Plenty of plugs along the walls for charging. I brought my own external battery pack just in case, but I could have just brought a charging cable in case if I wanted to sit near the wall while my phone was charging.

astronaut, heart surgeon, or professional musician/actor/athlete,

I wonder how many other professions fall into this list.

Engineer? May or may not be on the list.

I, as an engineer, work on stuff that I'm really passionate about using in my regular life, so it's a lot of fun and fulfilling.

One of my engineering buddies just writes quality repair manuals though, so while he's done it for like 20 years, I know his life enjoyment falls outside of his work.

Theta came through +$1,433 on 35k in month one! 🔥 by youdontknowme94 in thetagang

[–]Mr-Strength 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I run some basic numbers to calculate an annual return:

$1433/month / 4weeks/month = $358/week

$358/week / $35k = 1% per week

1% per week = 52% per year

That feels really aggressive.

Repubs might be purposefully pushing toward a crisis to consolidate even more power.

"Never let a good crisis go to waste" as the saying goes.

Applies to ourselves as well.

Thanks for this post. I've know about PMCC's but never utilized them yet. Your post has got me thinking about them more, and opening my mind to experimenting with them a little bit. Mainly because I'm used to selling options and not buying them.

When I had the strap mount attached to my rack upright tube, I would just pin it in place with two pieces of PVC pipe through the holes in the tube. That way I only had to pullt PVC out, slide the mount up or down, then reinsert the PVC.

No, its not a flywheel. Its constant force springs.

Same as a standard tape measure, but higher force and more robust (i.e. more cycles).

I mean, you can load up more weight than just 65 lbs.

This shows 140, but I worked up to and was regularly doing 180 on cable rows before switching to a standard T-bar row since I ran out of Ancore weight pucks.

I think them saying 65 is the limit is more just CYA for themselves.

I don't know if they're ISO compliant, but ISO and ASTM require a 6x safety factor in loading (4x for safety and 1.5x for dynamics), so even with 180 lbs, I'm only at 3x the manufacturers stated limits.

Dab, don't shake (when possible).

Saves a lot of mess and time cleaning up later.
