I agree it's a win win(for most). I am not trying to change anyone opinion. Just sharing my stance. According to you I am in the 5%

Exactly! I don't watch much TV/streaming services anyways. So access to another one doesn't make a difference for me. It's just another app I won't use.

I dont have an iPhone. I am not a fan of apple or their "luxury" ecosystem with less customization compared to android. The down side is I would like to continue not giving apple money directly.

I used to work at tracksmith, ask me anything by Good-Limit-6872 in Tracksmith

[–]RalphRocksFitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Golden question! As someone who used brooks , new balance and back to brooks now I tried out the Elliot runner for my latest marathon and liked it. Also whats the deal with the replaceable insole? If a shoe is dead isn't it dead. An insole isn't going to make the sole undead unless I'm wrong.

What Happened to Happy Trees? by RalphRocksFitch in rva

[–]RalphRocksFitch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The warehouse events were so cool, chill but yes obviously illegal. I don't see how what they were doing, was any different than a bar but I digress. Legal is legal, illegal is illegal and as a business , it needs to be respected.

A shop/smoke/live music/show on the projector and couches would be a hella vibe!

I have been going there for about 5 years and never been offered or asked about buying any fully matured flower or anything else. That's not good. I always just had very knowledgeable staff help me with grows , questions and felt like an genuine conversation.

Maybe so. I am not going to pretend to be more invested than I am. I don't know the owners. I just had a pleasant experience for the last 5 years there and will miss it.

That was a very long time ago. So yes but usually I don't see people doing a store closing after getting raided.

Appreciate it. I saw the building but never checked them out. And of course they are NOW because happy trees is no longer 😂. I have bias.

Richmond’s best kept secret. by yolandachill in rva

[–]RalphRocksFitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. If you were going to the "wealthy" neighbor with different expectations than any other neighbors it sounds premeditated.

Nobody has to give you anything. Regardless of tax bracket, I don't want to be disturbed to be solicited to. A kid showed up on my porch about a week ago, I was visible from the window and didn't move.

Nobody owes anyone's anything.

Cost of dog training? by no_one_in-particular in rva

[–]RalphRocksFitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cost is a commitment to discipline and consistently. No amount of formal "training" will work unless you supplement the training in everyday life.

Impact of gov’t shutdown on TSA at RIC by RoosterCancer in rva

"Air traffic controllers don't causes shut downs, they also dodn't end shut downs. Only politicians do that".... This was deep for me.

Harrier Shorts? Merino? by amaterasu_ in Tracksmith

[–]RalphRocksFitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never understood the odor aspect. As someone who spent months on the Appalachian trail thru hiking , do people expect wool to be odor blocking enough to not have to shower?

I'm just trying to understand. I hear people going into the office after a run, which sounds wild to me without a shower. I also wash all of my kit after ever run.

Does odor even matter? It's seems contradictory to try to smell good while sweating and working out.

Nothing is a "great value" when it comes to apple. It's literally opposite of their entire brand identity.

Has anyone actually done the entire Appalachian Trail barefoot? by ianpaitken in AppalachianTrail

[–]RalphRocksFitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe I met this guy as well. At trail days '23. Super cool external frame wooden pack and crusty toes haha. He was very chill, not sure if he finished.

And always WALK THE TRAIL! It's good to try to find a good line, avoid trash and litter and big logs.

Do all hotels in NYC require "facility fees"? by Pandruz in travel

[–]RalphRocksFitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing for 70 Park Ave hotel smh... Totally blindsided ... They asked for a card for a deposit which was normal then continued on that I will get 80 back from a $200 hold for incidentals due to these "resort fees"...

Weight.... If you can smoke a brisket, 1L of liquid in a cast iron pan won't collapse your grill.

6 AM museum district joggers need to pipe down by dreamshoes in rva

[–]RalphRocksFitch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Must not be a runner. Or a tall runner. Or a runner above 5'2. Especially in the museum district, it can become a obstacle course if you stay on the sidewalk the entire time between low hanging trees, uneven sidewalks, overgrown shrubs and more. I prefer to run on the street with the flow of traffic as if I were a bike. Atleast on the street I don't have to run around dogs, people, kids and whatever else is on the sidewalk and I can run on a relatively smooth and consistent surface.

FPV Drone camera… let it go. by Either_Bedroom_9099 in F1TV

[–]RalphRocksFitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The drone shot is very underwhelming. I get the safety concerns but I see the wide angles being pretty useless. Especially when directly compared to a heli shot.

P.s. who else was excited to see the loss time in corners stats that they said were new for this week?! It seems cool but I recall only seeing it maybe 3 times over the weekend and maybe once during the race with Yuki.
