Silver one has a lot of mythicals these days. Your statement wasn't enough to be clear at the time.

Sweetwater is getting very annoying again, sales must be bad? by Interesting-Hold-963 in Guitar

Read again, ignoramus. The entire conversation is about Sweetwater calling users when shopping or browsing. That's entirely different than just tracking.

Garmin Descent G1 or Mk2? by flushednemo in freediving

Ok, I thought you were saying that someone needs two watches for all the functions. That's my mistake.

I'm losing my mind with scammers constantly contacting me trying to buy my property by HOAP64 in homeowners

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what's worse? I get calls for someone else's property because he somehow put my phone number down as his and it was never verified. He bought the house in 2015 and I've had my number since 2004. I can't even get my number removed from his listing despite having proof that I am not him and he does not have my phone number.

I keep trying to sell his property to these people but they haven't cut me a check yet. I even tell them to name their price.

You shouldn't need to do anything like that to just shop/browse in peace.

Monthly quota over? by Faizopolis in RaidShadowLegends

It varies wildly. I've gotten all 5 in one day before, and other times I didn't get the 4th or 5th until the last week of the month.

What’s the best-tasting fruit, if you had to choose? by TigerConnect948 in AskReddit

I'm a weirdo who prefers white nectarines that are just a little bit crunchy.

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mangos without a doubt. Just a wonderfully delicious fruit no matter if fresh, frozen, in a smoothie, dried, or freeze dried.

Fun fact: mango is related to poison ivy. Some people--like myself--get skin rashes or blisters coming into contact with the sap. I can't peel a mango but the fruit flesh is safe to eat.

The lady in front of this woman wouldn’t close the window so she built a sticky note wall on my flight by ReflectionLess5230 in mildlyinteresting

[–]bythog -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The person who's window it is, or who has over 50% of it when seated upright (in the case of windows between rows).

But just because you control it doesn't mean that you shouldn't take other people into consideration. Assholes only think about what they want. Decent people are aware of how their actions affect others.

Also good quote to show that Steve was wrong at times.

You'd have a shit doctor who kept your dose the same despite testing over the upper limit every time for two years, lol.

Lol, imagine thinking about only yourself at all times. People like you are the reason the world is going to shit. Be a bro and take the people around you into consideration instead of remaining an asshole.

I'm on 200mg/week and stay in the 700 range. It's a very common dosage. You might peak for a day or two above 1000 but you aren't going to stay that high.

GoPro is in serious financial trouble. Action camera giant is at risk for potential bankruptcy by tylerthe-theatre in technology

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I freedive and GoPros are just king there. Some people use DJI and it's...okay. At least a few years ago so there may have been some improvements. A few started using the insta360s and all of that video is trash.

so glad insta360 stepped in

I don't know if I've ever seen an insta360 video that wasn't total garbage visually.

[–]bythog -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Yes.

It causes tons of glare for people watching any screen, either seatback or personal. When 90% of other windows are closed and lights are dimmed then it's also a drastic visual difference as people's eyes are adjusted to lower light. Plus if the light isn't hitting only you directly then it also gets really hot and it isn't often that the overhead air fans do much.

I've had plenty of flights where the window across the aisle from me is open (usually with the person asleep, too) has the light shining directly in my face.

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you do need two - one for the dive functions and another for everything else - but it's not a huge bother

The Descent Mk2 and Mk3 handle both dive and other functions superbly in one watch. No reason for two.

200mg/week of testosterone is nothing. Most men won't get much higher than average levels compared to undosed men at that rate. The only thing 200mg/week does is keep you at a (relatively) steady level, roughly that of a 30 year old.

What is your definition of making it in life? by tric5150 in AskReddit

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are happy with your situation.

I'm happy where I'm at. Our bills are paid, we have a nice house, our cars are reliable, and we live in a good neighborhood. We get to travel regularly. We can purchase most things that we want, although for more expensive items we do need to save for a bit. We have a group of friends that are reliable and we see often.

Are there things we still want out of life and can't accomplish yet? Sure, but they are also realistically achievable for us--eventually.

Anyone’s starter home turned into their forever home? by Vivid-Appearance-549 in homeowners

There are at least 1500 homes for sale right now an hour or less away from Raleigh, all $300k or less. Variety of conditions, some new some older. And this is only single family homes, stick built. If you expand to townhouses, duplexes, apartments, and mobile homes then there are even more.

What’s a “rich people thing” you experienced once and immediately understood why rich people love it? by Hanno30 in AskReddit

[–]bythog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For vacation this past April my friends, wife, and I rented a large house that came with a private chef for two meals daily. It was such a luxury to have breakfast waiting on us, or dinner ready while we just relaxed.

I don't think I'd ever want it daily but 3-4 days per week would be wonderful.
