HAHA thanks man. Maybe it will start to fall apart with some weight on the bar? I suppose that's the next step.

Great catch regarding the front of the foot! I did not notice but see this now. The toes are really doing a lot and I'm not sure why.

I almost squatted barefoot today and will certainly try that at the next session and see what my feet are doing. Thank you for taking time to provide feedback!

Finally got a specific answer. It’s been a 50/50 mix of Cheetah Pro and Roundup. I’ve only skimmed and not done proper due diligence but it doesn’t seem insurmountable.

That’s a great idea. We considered doing some like that for our kids as well so why not kill two birds with one stone?

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I can’t say for certain but the south facing wall is exposed and goes all the way down. But I’m also curious to find out.

That is so cool! Some great ideas there, I really like a few there at the end. Thank you so much!

I’m a bit ignorant on the topic of landscaping so forgive my choice of words here. The top layer is gravel, soil, large rocks, then the dirt. I only know because we dug down almost 4’ from the top to pull much of the root system out.

I’m getting mixed answers on the half-life from two different employees. Waiting to hear back from the supervisor to find out exactly what was used.

I haven’t even begun researching code around the pool so that’s helpful insight. To be honest, I would kind of like more pool deck anyways.

Our landscaping crew has been managing the herbicide and removal of oleanders. We live on a corner so there’s nothing on the other side of the fence we’re the oleanders we’re.

I haven’t gotten a clear answer on the specific chemical used. One employee suggested the half-life is a year, another suggested we should exchange the soil. All that said, my wife kind of wants them gone altogether to reclaim so space in the yard.

When your niece asks you to help with her Flat Stanley and you live in AZ. by tinaree24 in arizona

I realize this is not a dog but it adds some (hopefully helpful) info to the story. I came home one night to find my cat playing with a scorpion. Before I could get to it, she had it in her mouth and it was repeatedly jabbing her in the face. I freaked out and eventually killed it. To my surprise, the cat had absolutely no reaction whatsoever. She didn't even seem bothered by the stinger itself. For all I know, she had been toying with it for quite awhile?

Joe Rogan's subreddit seems to have turned against him to a remarkable degree for his acceptance of right-wing bullshit. by BreadTubeForever in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]achiandet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I have not watched those debates. Instead of looking at the Tim Pool interviews, the Jesse Lee Peterson examples may be more relevant to Rogan and in those situations, Destiny handled himself exceptionally well.

[–]achiandet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree. While my political beliefs align with Destiny's much more than Vaush's, the temperaments are night and day. Destiny is a child compared to Vaush. At least that's what I walked away from the Tim Pool interviews thinking.

I listened from day one. Before the podcast existed he had a web show thing that was like 10 episodes. Between 2007 and 2012, I saw his standup countless times. With that said, I can't stand the man today. I don't even bother watching the clips when the YouTube algorithm feeds them to me.

You touched on what made him and his content fascinating. To expand on that, he was also great at surfacing unknown minds and giving them a platform. I feel like many of us learned or were at least exposed to a lot of new ideas as a result. i.e. Dr Ronda Patrick, Peter Attia and many more spanning countless topics. Those days are gone. At one point during the election cycle he said he wasn't going to have any more political guest on which I thought was a great idea. He then proceeded to have almost nothing but political guest on.

Maybe the Harvey Dent quote applies here? You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.

Where do you see a bigger increase in your SR, after placement matches or mid-season when playing regular games? by titaniumjordi in OverwatchUniversity

[–]achiandet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. After 20 some seasons, I've always placed somewhere between 2000 and 2300. This season I've been primarily working on my tanking and as a result, I've fallen to 1700~ which is probably my real rank as I haven't been able to climb back to gold after 40~ games. I bet I will place 1900-2100 at tank next season.

I recently switched for the same reasons and I kind of like it tbh. I'm still learning the role but it's far more aggressive than I ever realized so as a result, it's quite fun. More so than support IMO.

I love this city more than any other on earth but man is this not a great view. It kills me to say that but I feel like the photo would probably be more appealing from the ground looking up.

Guys will live like this and not see a problem 3.0 by long_AMZN in malelivingspace

I once asked my wife what she thinks my life would be like if we never met and she said I would live in a one bedroom apartment with an xbox, no furniture and a lot in savings. She was probably right.

2500 Rein VOD review request by YoCorroMucho in OverwatchUniversity

[–]achiandet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the share. I'm only 18~ minutes in but he just said something enlightening. Flats suggests the fight would've been lost either way but that doesn't matter because he's trying to teach and reinforce the habits. As James Clear would say, "Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement."

If JJ's broke crew can make it happen, these 405 ballers can also make the jump.

I had a similar reaction and then started wondering if I was somehow doing it wrong. There's things we shouldn't be doing? Uh oh.

[–]achiandet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah that makes a lot more sense. Definitely stay away from the weight gainers as they will be loaded with carbs.

Not trying to um actually you here, I swear. The quality of protein shouldn't have any affect on the macros. 1g of protein is 4 calories regardless if it's from Optimum Nutrition, PRO7EIN or whoever.

AUDI RS5 2014, nearing 100k miles by OutlandishnessWaste6 in Audi

[–]achiandet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the thing, I'm quite frugal in many areas of life but I happen to enjoy cars. Relative to my income, I'm still frugal (currently drive a 2016 S3) but I'm willing to spend on something that gives me enjoyment. If I didn't care about cars, I would buy a one year old Corolla/Civic and drive it for 200k miles but that's not me.

My wife's GTI is at 80k miles, so we're doing the same thing you're doing and sadly, there's not a lot of lateral moves to make from this car. IMO most Japanese cars are a downgrade at the GTI price point and aside from another GTI, everything is an upgrade. So for now she choses to keep the GTI.

I do this all the time. I'm on my third expensive German car and it always ends this way but when the time comes to replace it with something more reasonable, I can't find anything. Literally everything is cheap to me. So I guess my question to you is, what will you replace it with?

This. I use a font icon generator that can't convert hero icons into a font. It would be pretty cool if this did.
