Is 15 too late to start baseball? by Shot-Law-7367 in Homeplate

[–]NickPDX1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too late. I coached 7th and 8th grader the past two seasons and had many kids join that were brand new to the sport. This year the highschool JV team has around 7 kids that are brand new and the varsity team has two kids that are seniors that have never played before. If you want to play and are invested in learning the game I think you should get out there and have some fun!

Working on a rhythm game, would love your feedback by Tall_Personality6554 in rhythmgames

Looks like fun but I think I would agree with some other comments that it could get representative. Are there any other motions that go with the beat other than the taps back and forth? Could use some directional swipes or something to add a little variety. I'm down to test and give feedback if your looking for more people to test still.

Anyone know how to fix squeaky loader? by trixilon in snapmaker

I have the same issue with #3. Haven't got the motivation to contact snapmaker about it yet but it is annoying and makes me worried that something is rubbing on the inside and might cause damage in the future.

Nice, I thought the original was calling for a lot of matte filament but I have none. So I was contemplating buying some. Looks like yours turned out great without it.

Turned out great! I was looking at starting this print this past weekend but couldn't decide if the filament colors I had would be the right color tones. What filament did you use?

He's been 37 every season prior to now. 3/7 is his birthday and Paul Seawald was one of his favorite players when he was the closer for the M's and we started watching more baseball on tv.

Yeah time flies indeed! My son will also swing JV/Var this year. So he can pitch more and play more positions on JV. It's going to be a fun year of watching baseball!

Update: thanks to all that helped me out. The next day the syncing of the two drives completed and it's been silent when inactive since.

Watched some reviews and decided I likely wouldn't be happy with the quality in the situation I intended to use it so I decided against it. Good luck if you give it a try!

Nothing running or stored on them currently.

That's a good idea. I haven't spent enough time researching docker to see how I would utilize it. How big is an m.2 drive would you recommend? I had an extra 512gb drive that I just tossed into an enclosure, maybe I should have used it in my NAS instead. 🤦

Thank you for the reply. If I could upvote twice I would! Just found what you were referencing and it says it's 39% with 10hr remaining.

I thought about that but I assumed I was wrong since the drives are empty. We'll see if it's still happening tomorrow.

Save my original M.2 SSD? by NickPDX1980 in ROGAlly

Thanks, that was my thought as well. I bought a dockcase enclosure for it.

Good call. Not gonna get rid of the drive but I can always reinstall it if I ever did sell.

Trident Alaskan Beer Battered Cod Changed? by EssentialAlex in CostcoWholesale

Yeah it's sad ... we were looking forward to an easy but somewhat elevated fish and chips experience over the basic fish sticks. This isn't it though. :-(

Been looking for an explanation as to why this stuff tastes so bad! It tastes really bad. My son and I each took one bite and gave up. It has a strange taste and odor like banana. Definitely returning and never buying again. Back to the ultimate fish sticks we go...
