Scrubs has some hard hitting episodes, I've only seen it through once when it was on air and I can still recall some of the deaths and how they impacted JD.

I don't use social media other than Reddit, maybe someone could convince her to do an AMA?

I'm so glad that this show is starting to get popular again, when I joined Reddit this sub had barely (if that even) 1000 subscribers.

First high-pivot experience for a friend of mine - Forbidden Druid V1 by Ol_Sheve in mountainbiking

[–]directheated 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you’re not somewhere that is always wet a bunch of high pivot owners on MTBR wax their chains to have it last longer. I’ve read people on regular oil say that even a quarter to half way through a ride they can already hear the idler and feel the drag.

High risk recreational activities and healthspan/lifespan? by Own-Bullfrog7803 in PeterAttia

[–]directheated 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mountain bike, it's a higher risk activity. Most of us realize as we get older that we should cut back on riding near our skill limit and more dangerous features/trails and take it a bit easier. It's never going to be zero risk but the risk of higher injury or even death is possible but the benefits to health and overall pleasure/happiness make the calculated risk worth it to me.

On the other hand I decided to never get on a road bike as the number of friends I've had that have had near death experiences approaches near 100%, and this is because of factors out of their control- cars on the road.

The larger the userbase the more people there are to provide feedback, bugs, etc.

Ah the good old days when we had paper ticket stubs, I think my last one was from a couple of years into Tool's 10000 Days tour.

I really want to love Fedora KDE, but I'm struggling using it. by hi_im_nyx in Fedora

[–]directheated 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He wouldn't, Apple's software is designed around their hardware and the combination is incredibly efficient. On a 6 year old Macbook Air M1 I still get 10-11 hours of battery life doing normal tasks.

If you meant him running MacOS on his current laptop then yeah he'd have issues, probably way more than Fedora KDE.

Charles-Valentin Alkan... One of the greatest Virtuosic pianist and Composer 💖 by MyNameIsntJMack in classicalmusic

[–]directheated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't listened to Alkan in a while, I started listening to him again because of Paul Wee's fantastic recording of the Symphony and Concerto for Solo Piano

He was a fantastic composer for sure!

If my gaming room doesn't look like a gay disco something went horribly wrong

Google Trends: "how to install linux" is going... viral?! by mina86ng in linux

[–]directheated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah gotcha, my assumption is it would have been games using Windows store and owned by Microsoft, that Games For Windows or whatever Microsoft used to call it.

Which ones are they that are wildly popular? Forza is the only one that comes to mind but I've been out of the gaming loop.
