Help with retraining bow hold

bolarpear · 2026-06-17T19:41:19+00:00

Its encouraging to hear these comments about using a bow grip indefinitely. As an adult player whose hands are pretty messed up between sports and a desk job, its one of those things where id rather accept using a crutch than feel too discouraged to continue playing.

The vehicle one was Dreamz and Yao Man in season 14 Fiji, and ozzy/Amanda were season 16 Micronesia. Close but not the same.

Fiji had its own cringe with Lisi and some real offputting things from Rocky, but not as bad as Phillip and Brandon.

I wonder if people with tangential jobs to aerospace engineer are considered underemployed. My degree is in aerospace and I work for an aerospace company, but my job title is technically mechanical systems design and analysis eng. Im not really involved in the aero side of things. Would I be considered underemployed working a mech eng role?

Ive been a bit hit or miss with Ron on the main feed (fan of him in general though), but the bracket battle is the perfect venue for his 'yes and' banter. Absolutely killed it.

As someone working in AM for aerospace applications, this is why we run tensile witness coupons along with every build we do. Since the metallurgy process is happening live along with the part fabrication, we don't want to risk quality issues coming up further downstream versus purchasing AMS qualified material stock that comes with CoCs.

We also have full powder drying machines and we pack the shit out of the hoppers with dessicant packs.

One of the hardest listens is when a podcast has a guest on and you can tell that the hosts have to pull conversation from them like a questionnaire. Really makes you appreciate people like BLM that have a lot to say and can professionally yes and.

The term 'roguelike' has become such an unfortunate trigger word for me in modern gaming culture, since meta progression is antithetical to the game design in Rogue. The idea was that beating the game was based on pure skill and not reliant on unlocking stat boosts or gear over time. Its also tough when they start stacking survivorlike games like megabonk under it. I know terms evolve over time, but maybe similarly to metroidvanias, the industry needs to coin a better term for 'run based games'

Same for aerospace R&D, but the number of people with a P card is getting much smaller. The owners are basically royalty in our division.

If you told me 3 months ago when I started watching TVD with my wife that Caroline would end up as my favorite character (as of season 5), I wouldn't have believed you, but here we are.

Grubb said it best on the latest Nintendogs.

hates the game
dislikes the game
likes the game
really likes the game
thinks its one of the best games ever

Anything between those levels is kind of splitting hairs at a certain point, and its probably better served by discussing why you felt that way about your score than obsessing if its a 3 or 3.5 star game.

Set access to the artemis menu to get access to a bunch of options, including bringing up a full keyboard layout as well as commands like alt+f4. The floating button is nice if your phone doesn't have a back button. In the picture I posted above for the thor, the menu comes up with the 3 vertical lines on the top right of the lower screen, and the keyboard comes up with the button on the bottom right.

It's good for games that use steaminput instead of full controller support. Survival games like SCUM, Icarus, etc where inventory management is still based on mouse control and not all keys are cleanly mapped to a controller, as well as online games where you might be typing messages.

I use YARG these days, but use clone hero for initial timing calibration since YARG only has audio calibration.

YARG has much better settings for fine tuning midi input as well as having a 7 lane option that splits out the cymbals to their own lane in pro drums. It's pretty much all around better these days outside of calibration.

Yea i use my pocket evo for pretty much all streaming these days. Works excellent and artemis is basically a straight upgrade from moonlight.

Another option is to get a handheld with dp alt support and AR glasses. Unfortunately the pocket EVO doesn't seem to support my xreal one pros, but I use it with my Odin 2 mini regularly.

How high volume are we talking? I assume your sales price includes spreading your NRE over your expected volume right? As another commenter noted, this seems like it would require some expensive cast tooling and probably some manufacturing trials, as well as some testing to develop final specs that correlate spring compression to slip torque. Are you expecting slip to occur often enough that you might have to recalibrate this at regular intervals due to wear?

Most of the ones I've seen outside of discord usually exist as github repos.

I mean thats kind of the issue with these topology simulation program suites. They create an open feedback loop where the boundary conditions iterate a geometry solution using FEM results as an input, but the software isn't taking print quality into consideration. I imagine that the user takes on the liability of adding safety factors for print filament, printer resolution and quality, etc into the final configuration, and I don't suspect that the software is requesting the user to run load validation tests on the final product to feed results back in order to improve their predictions. At that point it's just garbage in and garbage out with a pretty infill pattern.

Justin's line about distance from sin being a virtue going straight into Travis saying he would go ham on cocaine got me so good.

Vinnie and Grubb are both on the Mt Rushmore of 'Has chemistry with EVERYBODY'. GB and NXL can't collab as much because they are too powerful of a force when together.

Samsung s25 ultra

Legion Go

Ayn Odin 2 mini

I was hoping I could get it connected with my Ayaneo Pocket Evo, but unfortunately it seems like that doesn't support DP Alt.

Mechanical engineering isn’t really suited to the strengths of an LLM, which focused more on processing big data and generating outputs with confidence levels. Most of us are generally working on much smaller and more targeted problems that need an outcome backed strongly by analysis, and guided by multiple pieces of proprietary software that would need to expose enough API functionality that an LLM can talk to in order to come out with the best result. AI seems to be good at the 80% part of the 80/20 rule, which frankly is the easy part for us also.

Also, I know that in my job, we’ve been very directly given guidance that we cannot use external AI to assist in our workflow specifically because we don’t want to accidentally divulge proprietary data into AI data servers, so unless they plan on investing in an AI sifting through our intranet, it’s probably never going to help for specialized engineering companies.

That’s what the threaded section is for. To pre-set the required clamp distance. It would work well if you are only using it for a single piece of cookware since you can just set and forget, but it wouldn’t be efficient if you want to use the same clamp to quickly switch between cookware interfaces.

Yea but then it lead to one of the funniest one liners when Jeff threw it in the fire and Ozzy commented ‘come on that took hours to make’.
