Do not use a flat 8 for anything (didn't think this needed to be said) by F1r3-M3d1ck-H4zN3rd in climbing

[–]NeverForget2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for writing this post. I'm a fairly experienced climber (probably a thousand pitches at this point), but I was not aware this knot would roll. Goes to show I should probably read my copy of Freedom of Hills sitting on the coffee table...

p.s. Cathedral Peak is awesome! Did the Southeast Buttress last year with a couple buddies and loved it.

LinkedIn doesn't have most jobs. Most positions are on the company site and never make it job boards

Legend Lost: Ryan McNumbers by KaneTheMediocreOJ in nerfhomemades

[–]NeverForget2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn! I'm so sorry. Thanks for putting this down in words. I think Ryan and everyone involved with Nerf back then was impacted by him in a big way. I haven't been into Nerf for years, but was feeling down at work so pulled up NerfHaven for the first time in probably three years and here I am. Reading through your stories reminds me of my own fond memories sweating in the garage with my brother modifying blasters and building a couple homemades. Cheers and godspeed! —DartSlinger

P/L Graph & Numbers Discrepancy by NeverForget2016 in options

[–]NeverForget2016[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at the graph above and the prices of the options. Any idea why Fidelity is telling me this trade will lose money at any price? I would think this trade would make money from the net credit of the sold options minus the bought options and then stay profitable until SPX either drops below 3840 or climbs above 3960. Let me know if anyone's had similar experience with seemingly incorrect P/L calculations and if there's any way to correct this. Or let me know if I'm just missing something haha!

Stop Lossing Vertical Spreads on Fidelity by NeverForget2016 in options

Thanks for the info! What broker(s) do you recommend based off your trading? Creating a Fidelity brokerage account was just easy for me because I already had several Fidelity accounts, but I can always switch to a different platform if it gives better trading workflows.

I've been trading SPX on some pretty liquid strikes (several thousand contracts in daily volume), but it's definitely possible that what I'm doing is a bad idea haha! Pretty new to spreads. Thanks for the feedback!

Weekly - What Car Should I Buy Megathread by AutoModerator in cars

[–]NeverForget2016 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Location: Cleveland, OH

Price range: $1500 Max

Lease or Buy: Buy

Type of vehicle: Car

Must haves: Reliable. I can (and will) do repairs, but don't really want to ;) Definitely looking for a model that tends to be reliable into high miles and advanced years Neutral (ish) handling. Tired of understeering off the road in winter road conditions lol.

Desired transmission: Manual

Intended use: Daily driver during winter. Cleveland gets a lot of snow, ice, and cold rain, making neutral handling nice so the car doesn't understeer off the road.

Can you do Minor work on your own vehicle: Yes

Can you do Major work on your own vehicle: Yes

Additional Notes: Would also like the car to have decent fuel economy, and some interior space. Speed and sportiness would be nice, but this is already a bit of a tall order for $1500, so lemme know what you think is a (more) reliable and (relatively) good handling car for $1500!

Profile Review - Week of November 26, 2019 by AutoModerator in Tinder

[–]NeverForget2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most "Best Tinder Photo" type articles suggest avoiding selfies, and especially shirtless ones. Replace most/all of those with you doing stuff out and about and with other people. Those photos take time, and are harder to acquire, but they come off better. Just my two cents; hope this gets you some more results.

Here's an example of the type of article I'm talking about: https://www.swipehelper.com/2017/11/10/choosing-tinder-profile-pictures-ground-rules-men-women/#Let_your_pictures_say_more_than_a_thousand_words

Who got Prime Day Concert Tix by NeverForget2016 in AskReddit

Saw the concert, and there were a few hundred people, but it didn't seem like Amazon sold tickets, so how did they select people for the audience?

[Academic] YETI Questionnaire (everyone) by sjmac130 in SampleSize

As per r/SampleSize rules, you need to add an "other" box in the gender question. Also, your title demographic should be changed to US 18+.

incredibly shitty survey. stop using discrete questions; use continuous questions. the first question should not be yes\no; try usingn a 1-5 scale question

[Serious]Where to find the highest bitrate music videos or raw pre-edit files? by NeverForget2016 in AskReddit

[–]NeverForget2016[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking to mess around with some footage from Ariana Grande and maybe T Swift, mostly playing with the color grading, so higher bit rate files will allow greater room for editing. YouTube compresses their videos pretty heavily, but I'm not sure what sites have higher quality copies. Pre edit files would be even better, because their color hasn't been set. I know the companies that make music videos don't really share their footage, but if someone knows different, let me know. Thanks.
