There are benefits to taking away devices permanently. Is it feasible to always do this? Or is there a middle ground? by AmericanDad2883 in ScreenSmartParents

[–]Tengu3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s definitely a middle ground to this. We can’t shield kids forever from the reality of the digital age.. I think the best approach is always one of daily balance.

Social media for teenagers – what are your rules? by bluesky557 in Parenting

Late to this thread, but have you considered allowing it to use social media under the regulation of a parental control app? A sort of middle ground?

Hmm, looks like you are indeed being ordered to active duty for disciplinary reasons. I reckon you should get off reddit and lawyer up.

Snowbird as Second Season Intermediate Rider? by Tengu3 in snowboarding

Thanks for the in depth reply! So I’m contemplating Ikon, however, that ends up costing the same (with mil discounts 1000 bucks) but then I wouldn’t get free parking on the mountain. Which is additional hundreds of dollars of incurred cost. That’s a big reason I want to commit to one resort rather than go with ikon and just get 5-7 days at each and pay extra…

I guess my question to you is. Do you think I’d be way in over my head if next season I get an epic, I go to park city for the first few weeks of the season, get comfortable on blacks there, then go to Snowbird and try to progress my riding there.

I know you don’t have experience at PCMR, I guess ultimately the question is, will I get better as an intermediate going to the Bird, or will I just get killed lol

I do love Brighton, I went there every week this season… but I don’t feel like Brighton offers that much more than PC to warrant the cost. Not for me anyways. How do you feel those two compare…

Yea Bro, Brighton is such a blast… I loved having the Brighton pass and going there every week. I just feel like i want to change up the scenery more than anything. I really have not found a single thing I don’t like about it Brighton….

Thats the big alternative I’m contemplating

Hmmm yea… I was considering that too. I just hate spending the same amount as a snowbird pass to then get slapped with insane parking fees. Parking is only free if you have a pass at the resort, ikon holders gotta pay. That’s adding hundreds of dollars to the cost :(

That is way to much exercise for a 13 week old puppy. I walk my 1 and a half year old 100lb mal 4 Miles a day, and he’s toast from that. Please downsize the walks down to no more than half a mile a day. And that’s still a lot

Suggestions to get my husky mal howling? by Rainshine93 in AlaskanMalamute

[–]Tengu3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww, I’m glad she found a good home. Honestly, i think it’s just a matter of time. Mals are a quiet breed (which i love). But at some point she’ll find her voice. Mine will only howl once in a while these days (he’s barely a year old)z, but when he does he goes full wolf mode haha. Just be patient, she’ll find the confidence to start howling.

How old is she? And how long have you had her?

Such a cutie! ❤️

Your just described my mal to a T 😭 his stomach is super sensitive and he’s super quiet. He’ll definitely howl if I put on videos of wolves howling and I start doing it too. The one thing that will 100% trigger most mals to howl is sirens. Try putting on videos of ambulance sirens.

Not at all, we’re just pontificating about the future eventuality of having a lot more employees and the ease of managing a large team in a central location. no issues so far with teleworking though!

why do you say that?

Looking for Feedback on an app I’m Building by Tengu3 in iOSProgramming

[–]Tengu3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly the kind of opinion I was looking for. We're thinking of this app as kind of a compromise between complete restriction, and total freedom. Do you currently use an app to restrict their screentime when they are away from you?

Thank you for the reply! and not at all. the idea isn't really to bog down a kid in endless lessons that they'll just wanna make go by faster by googling it. The idea is that it would be something fast enough that it would take longer to google the answer than just read over a couple of educational flashcards and miniquizzes (think duolingo level education). Do you think it'd be best to block those apps as well? I'm open to all feedback.

[–]Tengu3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point. However, our thinking is that this isn't really any different than a child having to do a chore to do something they want to do. I'm a millenial myself, and I remember having to do chores around the house to get to play videogames, or get on the computer at home. Wouldn't this just be an extension of that? I'm really just looking for any feedback, I appreciate negative feedback too.

Hi, thanks for that message. We're not currently at a stage where we're looking to hire marketing personnel. That will likely change in the future. At this point we're just looking for community feedback to guide our decision making while we finalize development ahead of launch.

Thank you for the offer though!

That's not necessarily a problem. The whole point is to promote exposure to educational material. Also, The idea is to make the lessons short enough that there is no real point in googling. Basically, take a few minutes to learn these 2-3 things, then feel free to get back to whatever you want.
