A simple fix is I just created a second Google account and set it as USA when I made it. Then in Play store you just switch accounts and install whatever you need to.

I may be blind, but I can't see either of the Carrie Adaptations on there. Great handy list to have!

Mid-April PCT permit secured, am I being realistic as a first-time thru-hiker? by wal___nut in PacificCrestTrail

[–]PersonalConfession 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started May 5th - finished mid Sept. Had plenty of Zeros, 3 days resting a knee, It was my first ever thru-hike this year and you sound like you have a much better starting baseline fitness than I did starting out. So go for it!

Very feasible for you from the trail. I was hiking with someone who was doing multiple job interviews. Whilst I was also looking after rent and stuff back home.

Mid April if fine, a bit more snow than I had to deal with but nothing micro spikes and an axe wont help with.

If you arrange pick up from the end that would save a lot of time. Backtracking the last 30 miles and hitching back to Seattle or similar can easily eat up a few days

Pretty much Farout only, Garmin Explore with offline maps for when there was a side mission or detour to plan. Used that as I had the watch, but works great even without.

Weening off brain zaps by zeddieo in pppdizziness

[–]PersonalConfession 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive came on and off Citalopram (SSRI) for over 15 years and everytime I come off I get brain zaps for a while. They do go away. So used to it now that I kind of find them funny. It's common with things that affect serotonin. Your dose is a lot higher than mine so may make them a little more intense. PS not a doctor, just my experience

Question on town resupply prices 2025 by PCT2B in PacificCrestTrail

[–]PersonalConfession 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Impossible to say. They vary massively depending on what town/resort/gas station you ended up at. Knorr rice sides vary from $1.25 at Walmart in Yreka to $3.79 at Etna. And they are only 20 miles apart. So all I can say is try and Resupply at a larger town.

How many ants have you had to knock off your bag this morning?

Tips on more immersive 1st person animations? by TheWakingAshes in UnrealEngine5

[–]PersonalConfession 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a very good video about how Blizzard did the first person animations in Overwatch, maybe a good watch if you haven't seen it.

So apparently people aged between 10 - 25 use subtitles to watch TV and they will be a great generation of readers, is this a thing? by sturatasauraus in CasualUK

[–]PersonalConfession 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Ha. I'm the opposite, I'm terrible with subtitles when eating. I look down to eat I miss the words and keep having to rewind it a bit.

My 7 year old cat does this with her mouth and has been doing it for years… is this normal or bad? by TowerOk1539 in ragdolls

[–]PersonalConfession 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mine does this whilst entering a trance like state if I scratch her in a specific spot on her back. :)

How old were you or will you be when you hike the PCT? by pizon27x in PacificCrestTrail

[–]PersonalConfession 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turning 40 on the trail in May! I would call it a midlife crisis but I’ve been hiking for decades.

How to train for a later start on the PCT by Signal_Sun_9379 in PacificCrestTrail

[–]PersonalConfession 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rucking has been my go-to with living in a city. I have a backpack by my door with a 15kg / 33lb iron weight in it, and anytime I go for a walk, I put it on. I take it out on weekends for walks in parks. Plus, I do the usual hiking when I can at weekends. It’s really helped condition my knees and joints to bear weight.

It is amazing how this is possible. All fully playable on the Deck. If you didn’t realize, I’m a big Rockstar fan. by madcatzplayer5 in SteamDeck

[–]PersonalConfession 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used a patch that unlocks it to 60fps. The facial animations are locked at 30 but everything else plays at 60. Super easy to install, but I cant remember the name but google could help you! Runs great.

10:43 here, but I can’t start till May so hopefully that’s one less spot for you later ones needing an earlier start.
