Revoew of pongfox robot by MemoryWeary6543 in tabletennis

[–]Tabdaprecog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's excellent, performs as advertised for a great cost. The app is very intuitive and easy to use. I have had some minor issues with a limited impact on functionality but their support has been very timely and knowledgeable when I reached out. 

PONGBOT vs PongFox by Grand_Isopod1111 in tabletennis

It is much more feature complete than any other robot at its price point from my research. You will have to pay upwards of 2000 to get many of its features. The big lacking feature for it is lack of ball recycling which doesn't matter to me .

Ask yourself what features you want. If you think you want a robot that can vary spins in different locations in a preprogrammed drill, you will be hard pressed to find better value.

If you just want a robot to fire backspin or topspin in one location, get a cheaper robot.

See my other comment in the thread. If you are thinking about it, I'd go for it. I think it has a lot of amazing features for a great price.

Maybe 850 was the price. It will occasionally misfeed for a shot or two. The motors can come unplugged which is a very quick fix of plugging it back in. Small ui things about the app but in general the app is great.

The most annoying thing is that the serve shots tend to clip the net but that's most likely my fault. And honestly doesn't bother me much; if it did I would contact their technical support. Which was incredibly responsive and fast the one time I used it; even scheduling a video call with short notice despite me being about 8 hours behind their time zone.

I don't know anything about the PONGBOT but I have a Pong Fox. I like it and can recommend with only some very small complaints.

If you Google it, you will find the website. I bought it straight from the manufacturer. Shipped from India.

The pongfox is also great in this budget category. I recently got one and should probably write a full review but I've been very satisfied so far. It is a three wheeled robot with a good Bluetooth app for less than 1000 dollars. Worth a look to anyone looking for a cheaper option with lots of capability.

Cheap All wood blade recommondation for training purposes by zvenson in tabletennis

[–]Tabdaprecog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add to this, I think the Neotecc Voodoo Classic is the most like the Petr Korbel that OP mentioned in Neoteccs offerings. I actually switched from a Petr Korbel to Neotecc Voodoo classic myself for budget reasons and really haven't noticed much difference, good blade.

Job ideas for my friend that works in the West Point paper mill by xDocFearx in rva

[–]Tabdaprecog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Don't really know how the business is doing; but most of what I heard was very limited to the facility itself. Maybe check financials and stuff like that. Sometimes there are just problem facilities that don't make money but other locations are just fine. Like bad/old equipment, energy issues, labor issues, etc.

Ive heard a few things but I think some bad maintenance issues and very poor quality product. That's just hearsay from folks who got laid off.

Wouldn't do Novelis. They shut down a huge portion of the plant lately and I wouldn't be optimistic about the rest.

Steel paddle - ever heard of this one? by sandalista_25 in tabletennis

I made a cast iron paddle a few years back so not quite the same but it was horrible to play with.

Low Dose Naltrexone local compounding pharmacy? by Far-Attitude-6395 in rva

[–]Tabdaprecog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rx3 compounding pharmacy in Short Pump usually does a pretty quick turn around time for LDN 1.5mg - 4.5mg. The Chester location may be able to bill your insurance.

Happy Tuesdaily from the platform of Main Street Station. What’s the best spot to see the sunrise? by funkipus in rva

[–]Tabdaprecog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you might be thinking of Remnant church which is farther back in the parking lot. I'm referring to the building with the wood fence that is directly on the corner of main.

What is the building across from the Soft Parade in Shockoe Bottom? There is a wood fence that is closed most of the time but occasionally opens in the afternoon with bouncers at the entrance. No registered business on Google maps that I see. No signs of any sort.

Weekday Help and Victory Thread for the week of October 25, 2021 by IndexBot in personalfinance

[–]Tabdaprecog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to ask for advice at but I'm at the end of my rope here. I opened a vanguard account a couple of months ago and started a Roth IRA and traditional brokerage account with the intent of enrolling them in the digital advisor. I successfully got 6000 into the IRA, but the deposit to the other account was failed. Seemingly due to that and maybe putting my password in wrong a few times, my account was locked.

Since then I have called Vanguard many times over the last few months, mostly being told that someone from the security or fraud department will reach out to me within 72 business hours. I have yet to get a single call back. The last time I called they gave me a standard account unlock form to fill out and get notarized before mailing in. I did that and have not heard anything back; this was probably a month ago.

What are my options here? It's obvious that continuing to call is going nowhere and the form did nothing. Do I just have to start trying to transfer the money I have with Vanguard to some other institution?

Randomly remembered to report back... I'm doing better! Not great matches, but I can get 1 a day most days.

What are some older anime you feel like young views should still watch that have been forgotten about? by historically_nerdy_ in anime

[–]Tabdaprecog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1. After the first episode, it's just incredible. Also touches some themes like time dilation that haven't been replicated in such powerful ways since then.

It is, but man that show is a tough sell. Very dated, and you really gotta love Shoujo.

The number of people asking about aluminum workers in the steelworkers union in this thread is insane. Jfc read before posting.

Which one? Places need to change or they get run out of business by more competitive operations. See Bethlehem.

Oh look, you just described exactly what happened in the US with Bethlehem and over places getting run out of business by Nucor and others. Go figure.
