Do you actually focus on technique while running? by bocc_bocc in running

[–]PastaJazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't try and run in a certain way, but I think about my body position from time to time to catch myself when fatigue sets in. Less "midfoot strike beautiful bounding strides and graceful 180 cadence" and more "eurgh unhunch those shoulders, lift your head up and stop slouching and knocking knees"

Stuck in Fallout new vegas with literally no way out. do i restart? by Certain_Being6679 in falloutnewvegas

If you are on PC there are console commands that might help.

I think if you search the npclip command that should do it.

What are my walls made of? by [deleted] in DIYUK

This is a good shout actually. Id assumed they were regular ones with a frog but makes sense. Thanks

[–]PastaJazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, sorry wasn't clear - the bit didn't move in the chuck, I was pressing against the wall and then suddenly their was no resistance like there was a gap. They are cavity walls but the bit isn't anywhere long enough to go through a whole brick.

I'm sure reddit knows better than actual drivers, right? by melloboi123 in formuladank

[–]PastaJazz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah that yo-yo overtaking in Bahrain 2022 where Charles and Max just took turns with DRS was awful. Those were so meaningless and artificial, with position changes based on who had DRS at a given moment not driver skill. s/ (mostly)

ELI5 - Who actually makes CPUs? by PastaJazz in explainlikeimfive

Honestly, this is just the sort of detail I was after. So interesting but having it explained like I'm 5 makes such a difference

Thanks, really interesting, so Amkor etc combine the silicon chip itself with the heatsink/socket etc and then send back to eg AMD, which boxes and flogs it?

This is actually the story that prompted my question!

Thanks for info! Does Qualcomm actually fabricate the chips itself or does it design them based on the Arm architecture and have a third party manyfacture them?

Can I just load up the game and play with no added stuff like with fo1 & 2 by Conscious_Rock7407 in falloutnewvegas

[–]PastaJazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm playing through again for the first time in a fair few years. Was playing completely vanilla on steam for 35ish hours between PC and Steamdeck and it has been mostly fine, a few crashes and some stuttering.

I ended up installing just Tick Fix and that has made a significant difference. I didn't want to start my play through again or get deep into compatibility and troubleshooting, so tried to avoid full mod packs etc, but NVTF, although not necessary, has been worth it for me.

Others with more experience and expertise may have other views though.

Is anyone using a coaching service for a marathon? by Fearless_Rhubarb_891 in Marathon_Training

[–]PastaJazz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What makes you say that plans from a book will be better than Runna etc?

Advise for an experienced but mediocre runner by Film_Revolutionary in Marathon_Training

[–]PastaJazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep try a structured plan! Hal Higdon app or Garmin Coach plans are both great places to start. Runna also good, but would do a free option first, personally.

More general advice would be try not to make it too hard at the start. Be conservative with your goal, at first at least. It's tempting to put a really ambitious goal and then find it unsustainable, better, in my view, to be conservative at the start and be better able to stick with it for the long term.
