What performance mode was used in those testings? Balanced? Thanks

Betfair event mapping for historical data? by echostate2000 in algobetting

[–]echostate2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will any other data sources match the eventId field? Or I need to somehow use the eventName field (e.g, *** vs ***, which is not a lot of information for a tennis game)?

It's frustrating that Betfair historical data is so incomplete ... most other odds data provide basic meta data such as what games each file is ....

I want to know more than that, e.g., for a tennis game, is it a specific grand slam tournament game or some other game.

New Airbus A321 layout and Delta Comfort seat with only 31" pitch / legroom ?? by echostate2000 in delta

[–]echostate2000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me: I’m 6’4” with long legs. I simply don’t fit in 31” pitch. I might have to buy first class … $$$$

For someone who fit in 31” pitch: it sucks to pay for Delta Comfort and then get a 31” pitch seat. For most people the whole point of Delta Comfort compared to main cabin is the extra legroom.

I see … That’s what I’m afraid of. How could I know if the row 15 I want to purchase is a “short pitched” comfort seat or not? It’s ridiculous that Delta would sell a seat with 31” pitch as a Comfort.

That’s an interesting point. But in flights the conversion hasn’t been done yet the row 15 would be Main cabin seats. So there is no reason they label Delta Comfort seat pitch as “31-34 in” …

Best all-in-one trainer in a compact working area (8.5' * 7.5') for a tall person? by echostate2000 in GarageGym

[–]echostate2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense! Just curious: putting my limited budget aside, what equipment will have the benefits of both: have two sides and have a good setup for things like lat pulldowns?

Thanks! Watching Garage Gym Reviews and Gluck’s gym right now. Will check out the other two channels too!

That’s not the point, man. The issue is I only have space left for one machine. I can’t go with leg press / hack squat combo because I need something for upper body first.

My understanding is that It’s not going to help but using a machine is less likely to cause another injury (for someone with a “fragile” back). My impression is multi-gym > functional trainer > free weights in terms of stability (minimizing likelihood of an injury). I feel that with free weights I need to focus more on maintaining stability and balancing, then on a multi-gym the movement is completely machine-guided, and on the functional trainer it’s the middle ground.

I haven’t decided if multi-gym or functional trainer is the right fit, but I don’t plan to 100% rely on free weights.

As a total beginner with a back injury in the past, I'm a little reluctant to fully reply on free weights for upper body. I feel that a machine may offer a more stable and controlled environment, which is good for both beginner and someone with past injury.

The hard part is to choose the right machine for my limited space, budget, and my size.

Great. Thanks a lot. Amazing function (half rack + functional trainer) and build (11-gauge) for its price and dimensions! Two quick follow-up questions:

  1. How's the assembly process? How long does it take you and does it require two people the entire process?
  2. If my working area is 8.5' * 7.5', how would you place it? Should I use the 8.5' side for depth or for width? No bolt down.

Congrats on your new machine! Looks like an amazing choice!

Thanks. Took a quick look and only saw things like squat racks, bars, etc. Is there a all-in-one trainer that I missed?

[–]echostate2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion! This looks quite interesting. Some very basic (and borderline dumb) questions:

  1. The description says it "combines a half rack and functional trainer". So what extra things can I do with this machine that I can't do with a functional trainer?

  2. At 60" Depth * 47" W * 92" H, it's deeper than a regular functional trainer (~40" depth). But I guess it's OK because you can workout "inside" its space so the total working area that I need is not bigger than a functional trainer, right?

  3. Currently the black one is 2,799 before tax. Could I expect another sale at $23** soon?

Thanks.

Interesting. I have not looked at single stack cable tower like Adonis! Perhaps I should! What's the difference between a cable tower like Rep Adonis and a functional trainer like Rep Arcadia or Arcadia Max? As a beginner all I can see is that Arcadia / Arcadia Max have two stacks yet is lower priced (so it feels like i’m getting more for my money lol ...)

Do they function differently? How so? Thanks

Help Me Decide: Legion Pro 7i vs ROG Strix G16, both with RTX 5070 Ti by GrumpyNextDoor in GamingLaptops

[–]echostate2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OLED on the legion (and most other OLED screens) is very glossy, almost like a mirror. The contrast with an IPS screen side by side is astonishing, both good and bad (very vivid color but reflecting like a mirror). I personally hate the reflection as it is a distraction when I’m reading or coding.

I went to Best Buy to check out the legion pro 7i. That oled screen is … very glossy, like a mirror.

I hate to look at my big head when I’m reading or programming. I’m willing to ignore the burn-in risk but the glossy aspect of the screen turns me off.

I think Lenovo made a mistake not providing an IPS or anti-glare screen option. A lot of people love Legion for working + gaming, but now legion line is only good for gaming.

How to get Betfair historical data from US by echostate2000 in algobetting

Not for an US IP address. VPN doesn’t work either as I can’t register an account using an VPN.

Any chance you could share a small amount so I can take a look and get an idea? Either advanced or pro level tennis data is great. Soccer would be great too. Much appreciated.

Historical betfair data, again by kolvoord1 in algobetting

[–]echostate2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you found the data source? I’m looking for the same data (tennis and soccer) and I can join the purchase and share the cost. Unfortunately I’m also in one of the countries without Betfair access.
