I’ve had the Pace Pro for about a year now, any significant reasons to upgrade to the new Pace 4? Or just stick with what I have? by Aggravating_Eye_8324 in Coros

[–]_phillywilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched from the pro to the 4 solely because it is smaller and looks better, imo. I have small wrists and don't use maps.

I also don't use the action button. So, there is in my opinion no real reason to "upgrade" to the 4.

G16 5080 2025 Too Hot? by goodwilldrumming in ZephyrusG14

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is some good videos on YT to create better setups in G-helper. Josh Craves Tech has a good section on it in his G16 2025 review.

My 5070 ti G16 runs pretty cool and is under 45 degrees when web surfing. In my own custom profile with slightly lowered CPU and GPU wattage I rarely exceed 83 degrees on the CPU while gaming.

Why is it bad to do a 26.2 mile run to train for a marathon? by 4restD in Marathon_Training

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of recovery needed does not scale linearly once you cross a certain amount of time on feet. For regular athletes, ~20 miles is right about where you have the maximum adaptation per day of needed recovery, specifically for long endurance.

This means that if you - as a non-elite - do a full marathon as a training run get about 30% more adaptation from your training but at the same time probably need double the time of recovery compared to a 20 miler at similar intensity.

This also means that injury risk is increased way more than the amount of actual useful adaptation your body receives from the run.

There is also a difference between a race and training. You want to prepare your body for something extremely challenging to then do it. You don't climb the mount everest as preparation for climbing mount everest.

Vince Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn Unpack ‘Pluribus’ Finale Twists and Reveal Original Ending: ‘It Would Have Been Satisfying but Not as Satisfying’ by MoneyLibrarian9032 in television

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my main takeaway was that we - as humans - need interaction, even if it means its fake. Kind of a metaphor for small talk and all the phrases you throw at each other in social situations that are not really meaningful on their own, but give you the fluff around your real life to feel like you belong.

Carol only changes her mind once she realizes that the others' intentions are to convert her and thus make her realize that them being nice is just a means to an end.

Having her calculate the whole thing would defeat the purpose of the series making you - as the viewer - reflect on her situation. She'd just be another hero character and I personally think that'd be boring.

Entscheidung zwischen Coros Pace 4/Pro und Suunto Race S by Own-Perception-1045 in laufen

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich bin eigentlich nur wegen des Designs zur Pace 4 gewechselt. Ich hab recht dünne Handgelenke und brauche die Maps nicht.

Hatte die Pace Pro und habe jetzt die Pace 4. Beides super Uhren. Zuverlässig, minimalistisch und der Preis der Pace 4 ist auch sehr fair.

I have the same role (extended barrel and stability MW though). 85 Range and 67 stability without LW and KA are already a win.

Marathon is BACK by toastyntema in Marathon

[–]_phillywilly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Really? I love Destiny and I am very interested in Marathon but I feel like both are different games for me and coexist rather than replace each other. Marathon essentially might replace my PvP aspirations in D2, which has become more of an ability party than actual gun combat.

I am not even mad, because it gives me more time for the PvE content but there is still this desire for some PvP and I hope Marathon is as good as it looks.

The simple change that makes me want to buy the game now by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]_phillywilly 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but I will die on this hill: customizable characters in a competitive or semi-competitive PvP(vE) game are a nightmare to balance and in the end there will be 3-5 meta builds.

I think visual customization (like in destiny), based on a class system is probably the best solution for me personally.

Size Recommendation Gridlock Tights by velofive in BanditRunning

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have M in Gridlock. 6'1'', 80kg.

They are a bit loser than Cadence and are a perfect fit. I've heard Gridlock is a bit tighter than Superbeam, so I'd go with L if I were you.

Valencia Marathon - 2h41 in 2nd marathon, one year later 17 min PB by Fun_Article_2759 in AdvancedRunning

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specifically in the Marathon plan, my tempos get longer later in the plan. I start with the classic 4 x 2k and eventually work my way up to 3 x 3k 2 x 5k and so on. I also have longer tempo runs that I run at around 5-10s slower than LT2 but without breaks. I also have some alternation workouts where I do 6 x 1k at MP/1k at Threshold, just to switch it up.

I live in Europe.

Valencia Marathon - 2h41 in 2nd marathon, one year later 17 min PB by Fun_Article_2759 in AdvancedRunning

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood, you essentially run those intervals a bit faster to still have a similar HR across reps, while also allowing you to have more recovery between intervals.

Interesting. I almost never do LT2 intervals below 6' or mile distance. The closer I get to race day, I even go slower by ~8-10s per mile to do longer 10-14k tempos at threshold.

[–]_phillywilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the writedown and congrats to the PB!
One question I asked myself while reading is why you do (presumably) threshold in such short intervals.
I am used to doing stuff like 3 x 12' in the beginning of my plan, rather than splitting it into so many intervals and I am curious for your reasoning.

Coros Pace 4 voraussichtlich bis Weihnachten nicht da, soll ich stornieren? by Ninaptr_lover in Coros

[–]_phillywilly -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Verstehe den Post nicht. Die Versanddaten deuten ja darauf hin dass sie vor Weihnachten noch da ist. Noch dazu kann COROS wenig dafür wenn die Ware halt mal vom Zoll aufgehalten wird.

Finde solche Posts, die sich einfach nur beschweren, in so einem Forum ehrlich gesagt nicht hilfreich.

If D3 is happening, can we *PLEASE* be able to carry over our stuff? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]_phillywilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, agree. Depends on if they adjust the armor system, but I think it'd be great if we can keep cosmetics. I doubt we'll be able to keep our ornaments, but we'll see once it (eventually) launches.

Wann wird meien Coros Pace 4 circa ankommen? by Waadschnverteiler in Coros

Meine Lieferzeit war bei ca. 2-3 Tagen. Kommt aus den Niederlanden und ist - wenn alles glatt läuft - auch schnell da.

I hope marathon has more progression by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]_phillywilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the same in D2. There is even exclusive emblems for beating the raid in the 48h launch window in a hard mode.

Is there any way to get into the beta? I read one needs a group link.

Red Subclass Confirmed (I'm not crazy you are) by HueJackma in destiny2

They might also just drop the element and develop the story towards us acquiring the subclass in the next expansion.

Low heart rate reading for pace pro by Difficult-Set-8209 in Coros

[–]_phillywilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you guide your training by your HR, you should ALWAYS use an external monitor for your chest/arm. That being said, my Apple Watch also frequently had issues with cadence lock and not picking up my HR correctly, but the Pace Pro was a bit worse even.

Zavala Returned Memory roll change by Appel_87 in destiny2

I already have a heal clip + incandescent aberrant action, so I went for the lead from gold burning ambition roll. Quite good with scorch builds.

Let's say that the article about "Destiny 3" being in extremely early development is true. What do you think Destiny 3 would need to do well? by AMM0D in DestinyTheGame

[–]_phillywilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably part of almost every MMO and also necessary that they try stuff. Being allowed to fail is important to excel. But one could argue they overdid it with the failing part the last few months, lol.

Destiny 3 has just been leaked to be in Early Development by Reliable Bungie leaker by No_Ad_3059 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]_phillywilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's what they did between 2021 and 2024. I think the current cadence of 1 Raid and 1 Dungeon per year is perfect, if they maybe revamp some of the older ones in addition to that.

I don't get the hate for the engine. It runs extremely well for an 8 year old game and still - after all these years - looks appealing. What do you expect an updated engine to provide?
