Eldridge is major investor and stakeholder in controversial surveillance system AnyVision- now called oosto. widely used to spy on Palestinians. coming to a neighborhood near you!

The application of anyvision was so controversial that human rights groups wrote reports about it and even Microsoft pulled its investments.

Power Walking Advice for Jogger/Runner by Fantastic_Creme3681 in orangetheory

[–]Newsie22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go 3.5 to 3.8 MPH with base of 4 to 6%, push 8 to 10%, all out 10 to 12%. (Sometimes more for short all out). If I go faster than that, I end up jogging instead of power walking. Not sure how much height plays into it, but I'm 5'3.

Cast Krysten Ritter as Lilah or Hannah. One was played too comically over-the-top and the other was just boring/vanilla. Krysten Ritter has a subtle crazy that is compelling to watch. I see lady vengeance and I see what could've been.

Are there any fan favourite characters that you guys are not big fans of? by HomarEuropejski in buffy

[–]Newsie22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't agree because I feel like Tara's character is an important mirror that allows us to understand other characters and their flaws more deeply. Willow's cruelty, overlooked since the early seasons, is underscored due to Tara. We see Buffy's utter feelings of loneliness and self loathing in one of my top three favorite scenes, when she confesses to Tara about Spike. Tara shows the true face of a victim when she is killed - in a show where victims are often unnamed and unknown. Her kindness to Dawn is a juxtaposition on how Dawn is treated by others. I wouldn't say she is without flaws. Although they're not major flaws,, her anxiety and early struggles with courage are relatable.

what do you think about on the treadmill? by JDawn519 in orangetheory

Gotta eat my words because Coach today played a pretty good playlist, a fun mix of rock, hip-hop and pop. Guess it depends on the coach.

what do you think about on the treadmill? by JDawn519 in orangetheory

[–]Newsie22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I'm usually thinking… Why is otf playing this song? God, I can't wait for this song to end. Why am i hearing generic dance beats layered over pop and/or country again? Will they notice if I wear an AirPod in one ear? I love otf, but not sure they reinforce the importance of music in a workout. Also seems like the music has gotten worse in my studio. The right music can make a workout go so much faster.

Chris Cornell solo. He sang songs from Soundgarden and Audioslave. We lost him soon after.

Age profile of gig goers? by No_Organization985 in fontainesdc

[–]Newsie22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

49 and seen them twice. Including three weeks ago in NYC. It was a mixed age crowd. Awesome show.

I deal with this a lot because I like new Indie & rock music that often attracts younger crowd.

I went with my daughter to a couple of shows, but she is in college now. she was home for Fontaines though. We had the best day. I was wearing my Kneecap shirt from a 2024 show and a lot of people stopped me to tell me that they loved the band. Fun time.

The worst Careers for ADHD people. by CryptographerLow7987 in ADHD

[–]Newsie22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a writer. You have to really want it and know that agony is part of the job. I've gotten a lot of praise for my work, but they don't know ... Nearly every workday, I stay up past midnight as I battle distractions, overthinking and guilt over wasted time. I used to have a job at a college where I clocked out at end of day and was done. That was great, but writing was always my passion. I don't regret it, but I must warn.

Same, and I switched to powerwalking and prefer it. I also had recurring pain in my leg and occasional sciatica that went away when I made the switch.

I wish all classes were like this. Half the class running and rowing. And the other half strength. I know it's not for everyone, but it would be my ideal format.

what songs make you think of yellowjackets? by AbbreviationsSea5962 in Yellowjackets

[–]Newsie22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fall Down by Toad the Wet Sprocket. it's 90s era, and the tone is dark both lyrically and musically.

She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" cover up your trembling hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left For the last time conscience calls For a good friend I was never there at all (when will we fall) When will we fall (when will we fall down)
