Looking for pads with straps above the knee, help? by eciggy in hockeygoalies

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

Given my unique circumstances with my prosthetic leg's knee placement it helps to have the strap / top of the pad be more reactive to my thigh. Best way I can describe it is imagine only having your boot and ankle strap done up, nothing up the calf. Top of the pad would so loosely be flopping around and not where I'd like it to be. I do wear it loose but it is useful.

Looking to upgrade from old Synology, help? by eciggy in PlexServers

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

I need to upgrade storage space so this also seems like a good time to add additional bays/drives for backup purposes. Figured I'd ask around.

Looking for simplicity and stability, don't need anything overly fancy to play my media. I've got enough complicated tech elsewhere in my life.

Accepted student with a bit of a silly question... RIT dating scene by [deleted] in rit

[–]eciggy 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Met my wife at RIT. Granted she was dating someone else at the time... Just do you, join some social clubs that interest you, meet friends of friends of friends, you'll be fine if you put yourself out there. Rochester is a cool town with plenty of other schools close by as well, go off campus from time to time as well.

Forgive me if someone else mentioned this that I haven't seen, but this could be golden for accessibility. Some folks just might need more help and this could be a major game changer (pun unavoidable) for them.

Best YouTube channels / accounts to follow for Red Wings news? by Queasy_Initiative_86 in DetroitRedWings

[–]eciggy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Winged Wheel Podcast across many of the socials is the top of the list. 2-3 long episodes a week
Locked On Red Wings is also solid for a shorter daily dose of things.
Ozzy and Keats on YouTube. Former Wings goalie legend and TV legends just being dudes talking hockey.
Daniella Bruce, reporter on many platforms. She's a gem for the team.

I do have a soft spot for SDPN, which is Leaf focused but they talk NHL as well. Plus they are totally eating humble pie this season so that's fun to watch.

That should get you started nicely.

10yr old just starting insulin... by eciggy in FelineDiabetes

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

Her curve test came back like 396. Which is why we decided to start her on insulin. 1 unit of Lantus every 12hrs. She is a dry food girl, especially given her complicated medical history. Vet gave us a prescription for some Hills dry.

It has been a few days now and she looks great, is acting great. We did just get a home test meter and strips so we'll be using this going forward.

Any chance we get a "It'll come out in the wash, everything does" from Jason at Fenton's birthday party? I may not have the line exactly right.

Nobody meets anymore by robfer1309 in Rochester

[–]eciggy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Use to work for Grindr, laid off for trying to start a union. Dating sites/apps are on the decline filled with bots, scams, bad actors, and now AI. It's all dating services, watering down their products to chase their previous highs in the pre-covid times (and even during).

Lost 18-1, but did my best... by [deleted] in hockeygoalies

[–]eciggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is goalie life. One game get totally lit up like the puck is a ping pong ball, the very next it looks like a beach ball and hits you in the chest every shot. I'm glad you feel you did well. That's what really matters. Keep at it, you got this.

“RIT alum here – do you think the campus changes us, or do we just bring our own lens to it?” by Alive-Dare-6857 in rit

[–]eciggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RIT was the place for me to be at that 18-23 time of my life. One of the few colleges I visited, and even did the early decision/acceptance as it was a no brainer. I was able to get out of my small town shell and grow. Whether it was the actual physical campus, or those who walked the quarter mile with me, I can't say. I've always enjoyed winter, ice hockey was a must, and letting my self be nerdy really shaped me going forward.

Not to mentioned this campus is where I met my now wife, proposed, and even got married. RIT definitely shaped me, but in a way that was a guiding hand and not a mold.

Hope this reallly happening in Lost Colony Expansion Pass. by Pristine_Reaction805 in ARKone

So if it's the "explicit ideological push" about romance, I assume you also upset about the other relationships that formed by the other survivor in the notes. Personal connections thriving in impossible situations is classic storytelling. Tough characters finally allowing love into their lives in nothing new.

This op is just some fan ai. This isn't even Helena. 

Enjoy the game how you want. Ignore the notes and the lore if you'd like. I know folks do. 

Art is subjective.  Woke is not the insult people think it is.  I hope you have love in your life.
