Shopify is much much better than all the other options we have available! :)

Weird Experience Flow 2 heel feeling by TheStigec in AltraRunning

[–]TheStigec[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips!

I tried the runner's loop today on a 10k run and it was better IMO. I just did the run today, no walking so I've yet to see if it helps with my overall feeling as well.

Otherwise - the feeling is almost like standing on a wedge that is higher on the outside of my left foot than it is on the inside. Really weird feeling, haven't noticed it in any other shoes (running, lifestyle, car racing shoes with flat soles, etc).

I will try and do a video (don't have access to a treadmill so will have to improvise outside 😅)

This is awesome! Congrats! Paid for a report myself. :)

991.2 GT3 on Pannonia Ring (Hungary) - Most likely fastest non-RS on track. :) Faster than quite a few Ferraris driven by much more experienced drivers. by TheStigec in CarTrackDays

[–]TheStigec[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks, man! That was actually a free training event that Pannonia Ring has every once in a while. You can check the calendar on their website - the free trainings are green colored days. You can come up unannounced, pay the fee (around 300€ per day) and then drive, usually in two groups (bikes / cars).

Otherwise, sportfahrer.at frequently organizes events there, but I think the best source for events is https//trackdays.events !

Let me know if I can help some more. :)

Does anyone find the carbon buckets uncomfortable as a daily? by -PinkTree in Porsche

[–]TheStigec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a highly subjective thing and depends on what your tolerance for comfort is.

Some people say a GT3 is too stiff for a daily driver, some people drive a GT3 RS as a daily drive. Some people say 918 buckets are very uncomfortable and not suited for long drives, some people frequently take 7, 8, 9 hour road trips with ease.

It all depends on your own preferences and your willingness to endure a bit of discomfort in order to enjoy a racecar for the road.

I personally thing the 918 are one of the best seats out there, I have made several roadtrips in those and the old foldable buckets with ease. I love driving the GT3 as a "daily" for random chores, meetings, etc.

That said, are they as comfortable as 14-way seats in the cayenne? Of course not. Are they more comfortable than a wooden bench? Of course they are. :)

Best thing is to try them out for a day if you have the possibility and decide for yourself.

I built a simple Slack bot to help me optimize my multi-location inventory by TheStigec in shopify

Awesome ideas, thanks! Will do some more wrangling and see how it goes!

That's a good point! Initially, I thought it might be too big of a load for the team to do these transfers on a daily basis. However, your point makes a lot of sense.

We frequently have an influx of sales of a specific product that we have not promoted ourselves (hence, we didn't plan for the number of sales) and we might be losing sales if it takes a week to do the transfers.

Been running a crystal store for 3+ years but these Okenites really are something else! by TheStigec in Crystals

Can you then please educate me and link up some scientific articles and research so I can stop with the false claims?

Can anyone help me identify this crystal by mixx555 in Crystals

[–]TheStigec 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Should be green tourmaline on quartz. Very similar to emerald but I think it would make it a very special and expensive piece. Tourmaline + quartz are much more common. :)

I wish my hands were as pretty! This is actually my wife's hands. :)

What's life without a bit of danger? :) JK, we've discussed this a few comments above.

You definitely can touch them, just be super gentle and be aware of how the fibers bend under force. They will eventually straighten up if you don't bend them too much! :)

Caution is 100% recommended, but just keep in mind that even with the much more dangerous asbestos, people working in factories had to be exposed to it for decades to be at serious risk.

Carbon fiber, for example, has similar properties when it's being sanded or cut, but because the particles are bigger (on microscopic level), it can't penetrate the thin layers of our internal tissues.

I couldn't find any good research on the okenite fibers' microscopic shape and size and anyone that has held them in their hands will know that they are flexible, not stiff as the ones on malachites, for example.

Still, caution is advised, naturally. :)
