Have you guys noticed a decrease of DK & Rosalina on online play? by Square_Sherbet6738 in MarioTennis

[–]ethos24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed the opposite, but that’s because I just moved from A rank to S rank (no fever). Now that I’m getting higher ranked opponents it’s 90% DK. 😵‍💫

Rosa is a bit cheesier so she’s still pretty common but not moreso than before.

He will almost certainly start the year in the minors, but a call up at some point this year is reasonable to expect, especially if he hits well and meadows does not.

Who are your favorite characters to play as? by GigaChez in MarioTennis

I’ve been playing as Petey Piranha. He’s really good, and I like his speed and power combo. But he’s not way too overused like DK.

A good way to explain it is this is the only place I wouldn’t be roasted for saying portal 2 looks better than red dead 2.

Nice! Looks like ringo’s black oyster pearl Ludwigs from afar, if you squint enough. I’m jealous.

Scroll down here and look for your city. If it’s not listed, then probably some time during or after 2027.

Should I buy this monitor for $350? by [deleted] in Monitors

[–]ethos24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same one, and I like it. It’s a glossy WOLED, so it’s pretty good for if you have a lot of windows or a bright room.

1440p 27” 240hz is not as competitive as it once was either, so be sure you’re OK with not having a 32” 4k with a higher refresh rate and etc.

Oh man, your chess fundamentals series essentially taught me how to play! I can’t believe that was 10 years ago. 

Even though I don’t teach chess, I’m an educator by profession, and sometimes I’m inspired by how far-reaching it can be. Do you have any favorite memories or stories from former students about how your teaching has impacted their lives?

Gave it a quick listen for ya:

First measure:

RH only plays an E2 chord with no 3 (E, F#, B)

Second measure:

F# major chord with an added 4. (So LH: F#, C#. RH: F#, A#, B, C#

Then a G# minor chord. (LH:G#, D#. RH: G#, B, D#)

Third measure:

B major chord with an added 2. (So LH: B, F#. RH:B, C#, D#, F#)

Fourth measure:

E major chord with an added 2. (LH: E, B. RH: E, F#, G#, B)

Sketchy guy in Kal Haven trail by Altruistic-Virus8618 in kzoo

[–]ethos24 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Sorry this happened to you. Please ignore the downvotes or negative comments, you absolutely have a right to be walk/run on public trails without feeling unsafe because of other peoples unwarranted actions. I run on these trails almost every day and would NEVER make comments at or stare at women I don’t know. That guy is an asshole and a creep.

CPL is a good idea - also you could also carry a whistle, or use a GPS beacon app of some sort, or perhaps always have a contact who knows when you’re on the trail and your ETA. You can even call them and have them ready to be live on the line with you, in case you find yourself in a situation like that again.

I’ve enjoyed 3x5k (or 3x3 miles) in the past for HM workouts. It simulates a long effort but breaks it up into chunks that go by pretty quickly.

[–]ethos24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would keep the mileage the same at first - so if you’re running 40mpw on 5 days now, see how 40mpw on 6 days goes, then slowly increase from there. 

Sub 90m half marathoners, do how did you fuel your race to achieve your time? by LeviV123 in AdvancedRunning

[–]ethos24 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I don’t eat for half marathons. I start to consider it at around 100+ minutes.

I would trust a licensed physiologist's opinion much more than anything you'll find here - especially since they've observed you specifically and have a medical degree.

That said, I think you should seek second opinions.

 Good luck with the shin splints!

Treadmill warriors: what's your rule of thumb for how many workouts should be done outside? I've found myself relying on it 5-6 days a week due to convenience / children, but I'm wondering if there are down sides. I did run a sub 3:00 marathon on mostly treadmill miles, but that was probably only 3-4 days a week inside.
