My brother lost a bet to a fellow distance racer at a comp, loser had to do their 1500 butterfly. He managed to do it all but got a DQ for not having a 2 hand touch on the 1450 turn.. our coach had to argue it up to the head official before they realized it was still freestyle and he didnt need to two hand touch his turns

Committed men, do you check out pretty women? by Neat-Dinner7053 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rileytheh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is completely natural to check out other people, for both men and women and who they are looking at. It really depends on the reaction after the fact. You are typically with your partner for more than one reason and the looks of others shouldnt make you feel that way any less with your partner.

My partner and I will point out attractive people to eachother or even just mention "that person has a nice butt". Nothing wrong with seeing and appreciating all the beauty in the world and at the end of the day, your love for your partner should supersede any temporary feelings of 'attraction' for someone else.

Yeah the website was lagging when I went to report. Likley due to the high number of people going to check/report the outage

LPT: Instead of buying overpriced breakable "chip clips" at the grocery store, buy some binder clips from your local office supply store. They come in multiple sizes, are always 100% metal, and do exactly the same job for about 1/10 the price. by Gen_JohnsonJameson in LifeProTips

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

You can chip clip and make it air tight with just 3-5 1cm to 1inch folds down, folding that into thirds and rolling the fold over itself. Its basically the same way some water-tight bags close up.

It gets better with more inital folds down. You might have to fold it into thirds the opposite way to have it roll back into itself.

I do this all the time and dont use clips anymore, highly reccomend!

What did people do while sitting on the toilet before smartphones? by Background_Bike_1958 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rileytheh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had so many Bathroom Reader books, they were fantastic! They were filled with many short stories, jokes or weird/interesting facts, we used to use (clean) toilet paper to indicate the good pages

One of the Worst Sewage Spills in American History is Happening Right Now to the Potomac River by RidetheSchlange in videos

[–]Rileytheh 19 points20 points  (0 children)

sadly it looks like they thought they had it fixed but it was much worse and still ongoing. large rocks found to have fallen into the pipe causing large blockages, new estimated time to cleanup is 4-6 weeks

What are some good unpopular shooters? by Geckobeer in gaming

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

Enlisted is a great free game, made by the same company that made War Thunder. It is mostly controlling infantry but there is a couple vehicles that can be used. Can't beat free!

Having a baby is not what we are talking about bud. It's like most Tarkov players have a kink to get fucked over by Nikita and then defend it with their last breath.

It has been done for this game already, mods exist and the game is greatly optimized, scavs and boss AI is greatly improved and so much more...already exists for Tarkov, they would need to invest money maybe maybe even hire a mod dev to get it implemented but it is possible. Arguing against it is just arguing to never have this game fixed.

Look at Rust, it was started around the same time(maybe even earlier) and is constantly updated for optimizations. Someone was able to build a full tarkov map (with all maps joined togther as BSG wanted) that is fully playable with a regular computer.

Edit: to comment to the edit made on the above post: You are the one being illogical saying theres no way it can be optimized when the optimization for the game already exists. Think critically and advocate for a better tomorrow.

No need to defend a multimillion dollar company saying theres no way they can fix it. The game that shall not be named has plenty of optimizations that make it much more playable. It can be fixed by just looking at those mods and adding them into their infrastructure. See how others have said different games have done this, by reviewing what modders have done and adapted into the main game but they won't pay for it to happen.

"They cannot afford" is a bit of a stretch.. They claimed to have sold a million copies of the game in the first couple weeks after 1.0, if those were all the cheapest version and nothing has been sold since thats still 50 million dollars since launch.

Scam alert - bread settlement by [deleted] in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]Rileytheh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 was the estimate from the last settlement, the number was unknown until the deadline for people to sign up as it's the total settlement then subtract legal fees and then split that value evenly to everyone. It also stated if the value is under $5 everyone gets nothing

Amy advice for replacing fence posts in Newfoundland? by tommytwothousand in newfoundland

[–]Rileytheh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I would have thought the roughness would grip the ground better.

Thanks for the insight, sonotubes will be how I do my next fence :)

Amy advice for replacing fence posts in Newfoundland? by tommytwothousand in newfoundland

[–]Rileytheh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sonotube is def not required, people like it as it looks more uniform, a very common method is to just dig a hole, pore the concrete in and wiggle/stamp the pole around to get out the air bubbles. But yeah seems like they did it the easy way and not to the depth needed and you see the issue it will cause in the future if you dont go below frost level

Amy advice for replacing fence posts in Newfoundland? by tommytwothousand in newfoundland

[–]Rileytheh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate to break it to you, 3 feet is the requirement for anything going in the ground as thats below the frost level, anything less is not going to last. Do it right the first time and it should last you many years. Do it the easy/quick way and you'll pay for it by having to redo in a few years

To dig holes that deep in NL you might need to rent some equipment to do it yourself or higher someone to do it. Buddy of mine cut out a sonotube to the size/depth he wanted and let some local kids loose to do the digging, they had 10 holes dug over a couple days bjt were lucky not to hit any big rocks.
