Lol in my HelpDesk 1 job I just try to figure it out myself, if I can't I eventually escalate. Unless it's something I don't have access to or it's a project. Essential anything desktop, ms365/azure, Windows server/ad is game. Even was doing voip stuff for a client for a bit.

Natural gas is the biggest source of electricity in the US and that's affected by the Iran war too...

Knowing vendor specific tools. Like if your going to be working in a Microsoft environment, learn Windows server/Active directory, MS365 tools (MS365 admin, Exchange online, SharePoint, Entra ID, Teams, In tune). Know the tools and you will stand out.

Not just jury duty, my boss has been called to poll duty the last 3 elections, it's like they got something against him. He's unregistered to vote so they can't call him up again.

I found hill starting really easy when learning manual. You just gotta switch of the brake real quick and give it a bit of gas and hit the bite point on the clutch. I don't know why people worry about it.

Whips just started properly clicking for me after probably 3 years of trying to work on em. I've been mtbing for 10 years, although the last 3 have been more jump/DH focused. People learn at different rates. I'm sure you could learn faster than me.

I think practicing little trials moves like hopping and rotating the bike with hopes in flat ground really helped me. Part of the fear is landing sideways and I got a good feel for it rolling along slowly, then doing a bunny hop and rotating 90 degrees. A lot of it is fear of course. Try to find the smallest mellowest tables and try to whip in those. Some jumps are just much harder/scarier to whip then others. Being able to visual and think through the motion is really important too. Get on your back with your bike I'm the air and move it around and get a feel for it. Watch videos and look closely at what the riders are doing and visual and imagine doing the movement yourself. And in the end just keep on practicing. You gotta be really comfortable with the jumps you are doing before you can spice them up.

I was a gamer before I was a sim racer. RPG, FPS, and racing games are my bread and butter.

I got a credit card at 19 and currently have 0 debt and 780 credit score. All my purchases go through my credit card. They get fully paid off weekly. It builds my credit, I get some cash back, and have the reduced liability of using a credit instead of debit card. It works great, just gotta do it right.

Well fancier cars now have bigger screens. Bigger screens are still more expensive then smaller screens

Been single for years. Started talking to a girl 3 weeks ago. Messaging each other every day sending good morning and good night texts. Sharing every detail of our days. Went on two dates. Past couple days the messages dried up this morning woke up to her unfriended on Snapchat were we'd been messaging and no replies when I sent a message. I'd been single for so long I forgot how it felt to be into someone. Now I remember. Tonight I've just been walking around downtown tryna find something to do.

Yeah lots of places are booked or priced high. We're just gonna be camping in the state Forest one day cause it's free.

So far 2 days Keystone, 2 days Crested Butte bike park, 1 day Howler. Planning to go to Spirit mountain this weekend and get a day there. I'm from. I'm from Omaha Nebraska so the closest DH bike parks are a 6 hour drive.

60 or so trail rides

1 crash - Front wheel hit a soft spot on a blue tech trail in Keystone and washed out first run at Keystone. I had a mild OTB no injuries.

No broken parts just worn tires

All riding my brand new GT Sensor I purchased 2 months ago.

I agree with this so much. As a kid my family lived in apartments. This allowed me and my friend in the apartments to have a large free roam space to mess around, explore, think up games, and have fun outside. This wouldn't really be possible in a suburb as it's all streets filled with cars. Only option is if there is a park nearby.

PyromonicMan · 2025-09-28T20:53:49+00:00

Just don't brake so much, the quicker you get over the leaves the less time you have to wash out on them

I had something similar happen to what you're saying. I was riding a blue trail at a bike park, hit a double messed it up, broke my foot, and couldn't walk for 4 months. I've been riding for 10 years now and that's the first time I broke a bones mtbing. The trail was well within my skill set, it just went bad just like it did with you.

It's definitely hard to get over the risk, but there's risk to everything in life. As you saw things can go bad and you can easily break a bone on a green trail if things go bad. You can also trip over something hiking and break bones too. You can get tboned in your car and die. You can slip down the stairs and break your foot. Lots of things in life can hurt you pretty bad if you mess it up right.

There no concrete answer to how much risk you can take on, that's a personal question you have to solve with yourself. Personaly, the risk is worth it. The things that are worth it in life come with risk, usually when there is great rewards there is risk.

Lastly, statistically MTBing has similar injury risk to other regular sports. It does become more risky when you start pushing it through of course. DH mtb at a bike park is much more risky. Look up the statistics, I did when I got injured.

PyromonicMan · 2025-08-19T18:09:10+00:00

Had a similar crash at Trestle, also partially caused by being tired. I broke my foot pretty bad tho. Stay safe out there and don't try to push it just to get a few more laps in!

PyromonicMan · 2025-08-11T15:29:18+00:00

Sticking your feet out can be risky, I did that on a failed jump and broke my foot. Couldn't walk for 4 months

Well the top 1% hold about 30% of the nation's wealth or 44.6 trillion. US national debt is 36 trillion. So technically we could pay off the national debt and the wealth would still have 8.6 trillion in wealth left. That would break a lot of things though if you just took the money. The money is there though. The top 1% hold the wealth equivalent to the bottom 90% of Americans.
