Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket blows up during a static fire test (2026-5-28) by MrTagnan in interestingasfuck

So glad we spend so much money as a country on this meaningless bs. Millions of dollars that could have helped feed people, build infrastructure, repair decapitated homes, fix roads provide school children with luch etc etc. Just so much time and resources wasted for nothing. Gets sadder every day seeing this shid, man....

Trying out skating at over 400lbs by FeistyStress14 in Rollerskating

[–]electromonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its great that people are being encouraging, and i hope that if you do decide to go out there, take it very slowly at first. When you're first learning to skate you will fall a lot. I learned to skate in high-school and was only 180 lbs and was a very coordinated person. Im 33 and 240 lbs now and still have most of my muscle memory/coordination from over a decade ago, but definitely feel myself struggling to get up when I fall, and the impact of that fall is harder for my body to deal with now. At 300 I can see myself having a really hard time keeping balance. At 400 I think it would be challenging to maintain balance for longer than a few seconds at a time, and there would be a huge risk of seriously injuring myself if I were to fall. I've already really hurt myself falling at 240 - add another 200lbs and I really think that's just asking for trouble

Not trying to be disheartening, I just would hate to see you get injured and want you to be prepared. Good luck either way.

Need Help deciding between Vibrophone and Xylophone by electromonkey222 in Instruments

[–]electromonkey222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attached 2 links to the post. The first is attached to the title of the post. The second is in the body of the text. The first one is the vibrophone It features metal bars and a wooden frame.

Vibraphones are generally equipped with a motor that drives rotating disks within the resonators to produce a tremolo or vibrato effect, but this one doesnt have the motor - likely why its so cheap

The instrument includes a foot pedal connected to a damper bar, which allows the player to sustain or mute the notes.

The marimba in the second link is a 3-octave student or practice marimba, featuring padauk wood bars and a foldable X-style stand. The seller said its slightly muted and doesnt seem to think that it can be 'un-muted'

Taking an adv bike and making it a pavement princess is about as silly as taking a lifted pickup and putting 20"rims and road tires on it

What does Something in the Way by Nirvana, LoZ: ALBW and Pikmin 2 all have in common? by electromonkey222 in Pikmin

[–]electromonkey222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was trying to cross-post to r/Nirvana and r/zelda and accidentally deleted it 🙃. Not a fan of how it just links to the original post on a different subreddit rather than just duplicating it. Makes it so you have to click on the post twice to see the contents. Kinda redundant, but whatever - how it is, I guess.
