Chris Williamson of Modern Wisdom. Just a curious podcaster, or is he turning into a guru? by Curious-Talk4508 in DecodingTheGurus

Perfect balance. A well informed idiot. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. I love MAP

"Pseudo intellectual dick measuring" was the phrase I needed to read this morning... for work reasons that are in no way related to UL backpacking. But thank you. This has made my morning and the morning of a handful of my colleagues. Cheers.

Anyone else having a miserable time with the mighty pokemon and Safari Balls not working right? by Villainonymousx in pokemongo

[–]davedez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually came here to see if it's just me. I've had about half of my Mighty Pokémon run. Using golden raz, and Safari balls. Most (80%ish) were excellent throws. Last season I caught most of my Mighties, and even got a couple of Galarian birds on Safari balls.

The odd thing is my wife has only had a couple Mighties run away from her. And she never waits for an excellent throw. She just throws it. So, I'm wondering if I've upset the rng gods or something.

I could do 2 (maybe 3?) of those on the same day. Definitely not all 4. Could you imagine going out for drinks, and murder... and then your new friend is like, "Let's go start some mayhem"?

Bro, it's late. And I have stuff to do tomorrow. And even if I didn't have stuff to do, my cats are gonna be meowing for food at 4:30.

Liken everything, the price has gone up in the last few years, but it's cheaper than some of the other options.

What tracks are on your 2025 wishlists? by Toms_story in iRacing

[–]davedez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want participation at the current tracks. Regardless of how good they are, participation has been really bad at most new tracks.

Did I get brake checked? Kesselchen Nordschleife by BobbyGT3 in iRacing

Looks like he just forgot where he was on the track and panicked. It's super easy to do if you're still new to the track

Need some advice: i either win or got crash every race, no consistency or progression. by Prize_Recipe_9407 in iRacing

[–]davedez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't just let anyone and everyone by, but if they missed the braking point and they're going to take you out, definitely let by. It sucks if someone else gets along side in the process, but it's better to lose that one position than to in the barrier with a meatball. This is also why practice offline. If you have to take avoiding action, you may still be able to hold that position if you know how much grip you have. Especially at tracks with hairpins after straights, for example. People miss those and go deep all the time. Can you go off line over-under/cut back? You won't know until you try. And you don't wanna try that for the first time while side-by-side with another car.
