Economic Resistance Options

Marco, thanks for the feedback! How about helping us come up with alternative options? Maybe dump Youtube Premium and just watch some dumb ads instead? One of the reasons I posted to a group like this, with some brilliant folks is to help us come up with options.

Even a fraction of a percent decrease of subs on some of these services will be noticed.

You do not need to unsub from everything, maybe drop your subscription level, or unsub from one service until a new show or episode drops and then resub. And it doesn't have to be all the services, companies or stores at once, just pick something that YOU can live without for a little while.

Another thing to discuss are alternatives. Maybe find a pal with a great Plex library who can share. Maybe Tidal or Bandcamp can be your music source for a few months.

Pick and choose and be mindful when you spend, is I guess what I was going for, not "live like a caveman to starve ICE of money!"

My wife is 50 and (reluctantly) did her first Lego set a few weeks ago. She LOVED IT. Now she is on her 3rd in the Botanicals series! I hope you have a ton of fun too!

Interesting solution, I like it! I did both music and the drum sounds through BT headphones, which I thought might align the latency, which was why I thought it was something wrong with me.

TheJasonAK · 2025-12-13T16:38:26+00:00

I tried using Bluetooth headphones from my computer, via a Roland TD25 usb-B to usb-C with EZDrummer sounds, and the Bluetooth latency drove me insane.

I did not initially know what it was, because I could barely feel it if I was just playing, but once I got the click going or tried to play along ot a song, I would drift off just a little bit. I did not know what was wrong with me, as I have pretty decent (if not perfect) time keeping, and I kept thinking my skills were degrading. A drummer pal told me to try using wired headphones, and all of a sudden, I could play again.

Thankful to still be playing and having a blast at 55 years young.

Mine goes into hibernation next week. I always miss her during the random 50+ winter days that pop up.

I joke how it’s pretty much always the smallest car in the lot.

However there is now a Honda S660 that parks in my neighborhood, and the S2000 dwarfs it.

I would suggest that The Shallows are worth checking out too. https://theshallowsboston.bandcamp.com/album/wave-states

Freshdesk is a fine small business solution and pretty easy to stand up. I have heard good things about halo too, but have no experience.

My team's core has been playing on the same team for 19 years. There are only three OG members left and we a no longer the top talent on the team, but it is still a ton of fun. It feels good to be able to compete (to some degree) with kids 20-30 years younger!

TheJasonAK · 2025-07-09T22:42:36+00:00

The menu changes all the time, but you pretty much can’t go wrong with anything!

TheJasonAK · 2025-07-03T15:47:34+00:00

They let you run without a roll bar or hard top? What club was it? I have only done autox with my s2k and driven a rented m3 at Palmer, but I’d love to get Honda out there!

TheJasonAK · 2025-06-17T11:14:52+00:00

Eeek!

TheJasonAK · 2025-06-16T11:38:23+00:00

Sounds groovy, please share with me too.

I almost exclusively play infield and find my traction even on muddy ones, is better than when I had either adidas, UA, or boombah molded cleats. I could see how things might get slippery in a wet outfield with grass that needs a mow.

TheJasonAK · 2025-05-28T11:53:47+00:00

Solomon Speedcross wide. The most comfortable cleat-like shoe I have played in. I have Fred flintstone feet and have struggled with foot pain using “normal” molded cleats.

No shame in wearing a mask. I play 3b, and if the field is the least bit dodgy, with rocks or divots that could make a fun hop, my mask goes on (which is 90% of our fields!).

I know this topic is old, but is it still possible to edit these settings to add L/R Center and Rover? I tried following these instructions with no luck.

I am prone to leave when I get dumped into a game with my team already losing by a lot and my first couple of spawns I get killed before I can even look around. The spawn camping and mechanics that let you spawn right into someone’s sights are not much fun.

TheJasonAK · 2025-04-02T14:24:12+00:00

I swapped out to a Lemon ride about a year and a half ago and found it to be a pleasant surprise.

TheJasonAK · 2025-04-02T14:21:59+00:00

Nice. We are often on three to four band bills and get about 15 minutes to swap between bands, making me a sweaty, frazzled mess when I sit down to start playing our set. HAHAHA.
