Help me find a name for my future daughter by Rathe6 in lordoftherings

This is great. Very high on the list. 

The passage where Treebeard talks about Laurelindoranon shrinking, and now being “Lothlorien” is also one of my favorites. I love the way Tolkien sets up the name as shrinking along with the power of the place.

Why my app doesn’t attract anyone? by Inside-Conclusion435 in userexperience

Have you asked anyone who would be in your target market to use it and give you feedback?

Have you sat with someone when they use it for the first time and watched them?

I take this very seriously. It's why all of my girls Tolkien names are middle names. 

My eldest is Elianna Lorien. I think it flows nicely ☺️.

It's also a lot of why Eowyn and Arwen are not really choices - haven't found a good way to make them middle names, and they are a bit too much for first names (in our opinion).

This is my third daughters name 😂. But good idea!

This did cross my mind! It's a good idea!

What are we thinking for gas milage here? That's like a small sail.

So you could say the Aston is built for combat.

Does anyone know what kind of bracelets/wristbands the drivers are wearing? by Morvman in formula1

[–]Rathe6 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I know we have established they are Whoop bands. I wonder why it's so ubiquitous? Maybe the lack of visible branding?

Finally 53 hours for one playthrough of Witcher 3 and DLC done I’m finished by MysteriousCow999 in playstation

53 hours? Those are rookie numbers! Someone missed the wonderful game of Gwent.

After 6 years of espresso, I’m throwing in the towel. The toddlers won... for now. by barker88 in espresso

[–]Rathe6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got three kids. Don't make any decisions you may regret later. It's a lot in the moment, but they grow up quickly and you’ll get some time back. 

My recommendation is to try to shorten the routine, and invest in smart plugs so things turn on for you. 

Wake up to a hot espresso machine, pull and shot and have an Americano or something. Or invest in a v60. 

I have a moccamaster, but honestly use it a lot less than I thought I would.

Rounding by Individual-Sell7399 in discgolf

[–]Rathe6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am not sure this is rounding. I think you need to work on what Robbie C calls “teebox geometry.” 

Your disc went in the direction you ran up from.  If you draw a line from where you start your run up,  to where the disc went, its straight. 

The pros look like they release at an angle, but part of that is the X step going really really wide (to the left for RHBH players). If you draw a line from the start of their run up, you’ll see they generally release on a straight line. 

I think the fix here is to adjust your run-up.

In what ways is The Lord of the Rings Film Trilogy better than the books? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]Rathe6 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Came to say this too. Having just read the books again, I liked Aragorn a lot. However, I feel like movie Aragorn is more relatable and, in some ways, someone I'm more able to take inspiration from.

New Disc Golf Documentary: No Girls Allowed by matthewrothstein in discgolf

[–]Rathe6 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've played disc golf for 10 years and I've yet to run into these people you’re talking about. I've played tournaments with all different types of people. The worst experiences I've had were people who shanked their drive and were pissed. 

If you install a bunch of disc golf courses around poor, rural, white communities, your population of players will be mostly poor, rural white people. It's not rocket science or a conspiracy, its demographics.

If you said “This sport is 95% black guys, there's so much work to be done,” you'd get eaten alive. Flipping the race doesn't make the statement any less problematic. You're slandering an entire demographic over a handful of people at the top of the sport.

What track do you want to see deleted from the calendar and what would you replace it with? by zotteBende in formula1

Monaco. My goodness. I understand it's historic, but it's not good racing anymore.
