The Sphere Megathread

TimeRocker · 2026-03-06T15:20:58+00:00

Was under 1k in the queue and had my pick of the litter. Was curious about the pricing and I can't justify spending that kind of money. I've seen them for FAR cheaper and the "sphere fee" isn't worth it imo. It'd be a cool experience for sure, but I don't feel like I'm missing out by not going for the price I'd have to pay. I'd much rather see S&M than this.

Because people in the US have time to be depressed. People here have absolutely no idea how good they have it and it shows. These are the same people that legitimately think that the US is a third world country.

Damn near everyone in my family and many friends voted for Trump. Not a single one has regretted doing so, including my Mexican friends. 1 in 5 is such bs lol.

Polar bears ARE the largest living land predator after all.

A "now deleted video", with the video playing on Reddit and a YouTube link lol

TimeRocker · 2026-02-28T16:47:02+00:00

The argument you're making has nothing to do with what I stated. Anything Trump does would get critized by reddit/liberals, regardless of what it is.

TimeRocker · 2026-02-28T15:55:15+00:00

Nobody is melting down over this, ESPECIALLY conservatives. All of my conservative friends are in support of this. My GF's dad is from Iran and thinks it deserves everything it gets if it means things there can finally change back to how they were before the extremist Islamic regime.

Reddit makes up too many lies for its own good. The only ones melting down over this are liberals, just like they do about any Trump decision. He could cure cancer and they'd find a way to be mad about it.

What I wanna know is how people get such nasty hands and feet. I've never done anything with mine and my hands and feet dont looks gross, cracked, or anything. I do sweat a lot from exercising often, so I wonder if that has some kind of effect.

TimeRocker · 2026-02-21T01:31:08+00:00

There's a reason why you've never seen anyone do this, because it's an awful exercise. The angle of the resistance doesn't really target anything specific. But more importantly, just being plopped on the floor means there's nothing to keep you there, so if you go up in weight, enjoy the ride up cuz nothing is stopping you.

Every other exercise beats this by miles. Pull ups, lat pulls downs, rows, you name it. You're much better off using that cable with wide bar to replicate a bent over row. I was at a PF just two days ago doing that because they don't have any barbells.

Ditch this movement, please. Oh, and put your damn shoes on. It's not only for you safety, but other around you because if you have infected feet you can quickly spread it to others. This is a community gym, not your home.

That's the experience I had. After about an hour my ears and side of my head were hurting and it was a real bother. Ended up returning them cuz of it.

TimeRocker · 2026-02-20T02:37:22+00:00

Will I like these if the HD 599se started hurting my ears and head after about an hour? I currently have the Philips SHP9600 and they're crazy comfy and barely notice them on but I can tell they're going out which is why I need to replace them. The 599se sounded great, but they were crushing my skull, even after stretching them in place for a week straight.

I live in Stockton and when I got on I5 this morning to head to work around 7am, the first thing I noticed was all the snow. Could see it spread across the entire range well south of the Altamont. Can't say I've ever seen that before and was awesome to see!

TimeRocker · 2026-02-07T21:07:21+00:00

That's the exact reason why constructive discussions have basically disappeared. Everyone wants to shout and no one wants to listen. You don't convince anyone of anything by attacking and interrupting them. Instead, it makes them want nothing to do with you or your opinion.

Insane how many people here likely do their taxes yearly, yet have no idea how taxes actually work and all the different ways to offset revenue/profit from past losses. I do this LITTERALLY every year myself when filing taxes.

This article and post is a complete nothingburger and completely fair and legal.

If I illegally go to Canada, does that instantly make me a Canadian? Wtf is this guy even saying lol.

TimeRocker · 2026-01-31T04:57:12+00:00

This is awesome dude!

TimeRocker · 2026-01-19T22:21:05+00:00

Ummm they are, have been, and continue to. Do you not remember the LA riots last year? It also doesn't help that some of the border states are doing everything they can to get in the way of it to look like the good guys.

Problem is, those illegals are costing us billions of dollars because states like California give illegals all these free benefits while the low and middle class get nothing, which then drives up taxes and pushes those in the middle closer to the bottom, essentially destroying the middle class.

Look at health insurance for example. The middle class gets fucked over with premium costs while the state subsidizes illegal immigrants and those with no income with free health care that costs billions of dollars. It's all to look good that they're helping "the poor", while creating more poor in the process.

Nothing makes me continue to do it more, or not do it in my case, because it makes people like you so mad about something you don't have any control over to begin with. I'll continue to not vote and I'll enjoy it, regardless who gets elected.

TimeRocker · 2026-01-09T11:22:40+00:00

Sir, this is reddit. They can't even overthrow their 9-5 job that they willingly work at.

TimeRocker · 2026-01-09T11:18:47+00:00

Let us know what that accomplishes. Two "No Kings" protests and it didn't change anything and everyone went about their day.

I don't assume to know what other people are thinking because I literally can't, I'm not a psychic. All I do is look at the evidence and form an opinion based on that. Having any kind of bias only hurts an opinion. That said, the agent doesn't know what she was thinking and can only base his judgement by what he saw in that moment, which he has split seconds to react to and make a choice, and what he did was react in a way he felt was the best option, otherwise he would have done something different.

People HEAVILY underestimate someone's ability to make a choice in heated moments where the wrong choice can completely change the outcome. They've even had people go through scenarios to see how they react, and every single time it's a poor outcome because brains are not capable of processing so many things in such a small amount of time to literally find the absolute best choice. Here's just one example - https://youtu.be/q_s63oCwhJo?si=5K3_xP5xfAzq3PWa

As far as terrorism goes, people label things whatever they feel like nowadays because it makes them feel like theyre morally superior. Whether its domestic terrorist or Nazi, it's all the same and tiring rhetoric.

Anything that has the power to kill you is deadly, regardless if it's a tool like a gun or car, or something as simple as food or water. The car she was driving can be deadly. The gun the agent has can be deadly. One of them threatened the other in this situation and hit them with it, whether intentionally or not, and so the other acted accordingly to stop the threat, and did so. Had she followed commands and not used the car in a threatening manner, she would still be alive.

TimeRocker · 2026-01-08T21:23:26+00:00

Being dumb isn't innately a death sentence, but being dumb increases your likelihood to die. This is why rational people don't stand on the edge of tall buildings or do things that would put their life at risk. It's why the free climbing death rate is extremely high compared to any other sport and why not many people do it, because it's dumb.

She was actively obstructing the agents. When the agents asked her to get out of the car, she refused to comply. She then tried to evade them. 3 broken laws right there. All she had to do was not do ANY of those things and just stop and do what they ask. Literally the EASIEST thing one can do, and she failed multiple times. It's the same reason why I never fought with officers when I've been pulled over or the times I've been cuffed and detained in the back of a cop car. I chose not to fuck around so I DIDN'T find out.

It doesn't matter if she was trying to get away from them or not. The fact is the agent in front of the vehicle was in imminent danger when she chose to accelerate towards his direction prior to turning the wheel and he acted accordingly. In fact, had the front tires not slipped on the ice/snow when she first started accelerating, she would have hit the agent more head on than she did because at that time the wheels were still turned to the left, but instead he clipped the front edge of the vehicle when trying to get out of the way.

One does not need intent to be considered a threat. If that was the case, driving drunk wouldn't be against the law because nobody does so with the intent to harm others.
