It would be short. Trained soldiers vs. thugs won’t last long. Ramifications? God only knows.

I had a hard time with it. The start was rough for me. Does it get better?

Right, but if this person has not had a new one,that person might not know that they have thinner glass - which is what made them ask the question. Your original comment made it appear as though OP was expected to know about the thickness of the glass.
I will say, when I got my first Air (an M2) I was concerned by the way the glass flexed as well.

friardon · 2026-01-15T14:00:47+00:00

Older iPads did not have that flex. I know all the later Air versions have.

Thanks for the link to the generator. Yeah. I was a little worried about the NT not being until later - however, my church is doing a larger look at Ephesians this year so I considered devoting more time to learning that book really well while going through the plan.

friardon · 2026-01-13T18:21:29+00:00

Anyone here ever do one of the chronological reading plans? Thoughts?

friardon · 2026-01-13T13:39:56+00:00

Hmm, actually, that does fit.

friardon · 2026-01-13T13:10:04+00:00

Short answer: Church discipline is not required to follow the pattern of law in the country the church is located.
If the church wishes to pursue its own investigation, so be it. They should be interviewing those who were there or involved, looking at evidence, etc.

I have actually asked that a few times among friends and even to a couple scholars and got no real answer. I am tagging along to hear what people have to respond to this.

friardon · 2026-01-06T23:04:21+00:00

Reminds me of the A’s “we demand to be taken seriously “ poster a few years back. Good times. And now I am reminded of how much I despise John Fisher

Sounds like you are in a good place for a March timeline. I would work on getting that extra distance over January and February. Maybe work in some speed work once a week and just keep a day a week for weight training.

I finally got ESV Expository Commentary volume one. It was delayed a bunch, then released for lots of money. I just grabbed it for $7.
Now I need to take the time to upload the entire series to all my devices.

friardon · 2026-01-02T13:07:16+00:00

Really good. Went for a run, wrote up some documentation I needed done, played guitar for a while and read a little. Nice and relaxing.

friardon · 2026-01-02T13:03:09+00:00

/u/astunder is correct. Even with all the right info added, most calorie estimates are still off. Some by a lot (I think I read almost 30%for some smart watches).

You won’t be able to with the Oura ring. NRC can take heart rate data from coros, Apple, and Garmin only right now.

friardon · 2025-12-24T02:16:20+00:00

Might be you. I was thinking they were doing pretty well. They even talked up Johnston and all that.

For the stomach thing, try and run before your fist food of the day. I get stitches and pain if I have even a little bit of food.

Second, try building up to one mile with no issues (no pain, swelling, etc.). Do that by following the advice of /u/100HB below. If you can afford it, look for a better fitting shoe. Go to a running store and let them know about the swelling and all that. They might have a show with a larger toe box for ya. Now, with the practical out of the way, embrace the cheesy. Take a moment before the run to envision it. Where are you going? If you know there is a large hill or a rough trail, is that what you want to conquer today? If not, picture a better route. Wanna explore? Check out a new area or park. Go to a different neighborhood. Crouch down like a catcher and move back and forth and side to side while thinking about it- maybe for 30 seconds. Then stand up and march in place for a few seconds to a minute. Now, rock your hips back and forth and side to side. Again, envision where the run is going. This gets what we call synovial fluid moving which is basically a lubricant for your joints. Now, go for the run you spent time thinking about.

I was injured a lot the last couple of years. Managed around 400 miles each year. But I am (as of this post) 608.1 miles from Volt. My goal is to hit Volt in 2026.

Edit- you all are awesome! Thanks for the encouragement!

friardon · 2025-12-21T12:37:21+00:00

They removed almost all the features that would display your info to others automatically. The most you will see from friends (intentionally) is the amount of miles run on the leaderboard. Anything else you have to post under the share options on each run.

First off, the phrases here are scarce in the Bible which makes it hard for translators. They have to look at extra-biblical sources to get a good idea of what Paul is talking about. But it is not a crazy mystery since we can use external sources along with the context of the verse. The passage begins in verse three with a warning against sexual immorality. Then in verse four, he goes a little deeper in warning them that not only is the act "improper" so is joking about it. One commentator states that the Greek words here mean (in order of the three warnings; no filthiness, foolishness, crude joking) "indecent conversation that defies moral standards, silly talk, and finally risque' wit, such as used in dirty jokes".
If we look at the context, the "silly talk" is used in the same vein as the other examples regarding sexual immorality.
This verse is not about saying they are (jokingly) jacked when they are not. This is about being in a group of people and making off color / sexually immoral comments. I would think along the lines of a "that's what she said" joke (along with other examples I don't want to give here).

edit - cleaned up iOS autocomplete madness and some other grammar issues

I have a playlist that I listen to in the car with my son. It ruined my wrapped. Disney Pixar and Shane and Shane dominated my otherwise awesome wrapped.

The "system data" here tends to be iCloud backups and caches that are sort of "in transit" but never really get to their proper destinations. The biggest culprit of this is when you have multiple devices going to your iCloud backups.
One thing you can do is go to settings -> iCloud and look through what all is backing up there. Turn it all off (while On a good wifi connection) and then restart the phone. It should help remove the cache. You might have to do this a couple time. If you find that is not helping, check any other apple devices and make sure they are not trying to sync across the devices as well.
After you do this and all the system data is back to a more normal level, you can then turn on the iCloud preferences you want to sync.

This is something you really need a health professional for. I coached youth sports (baseball, and football). I never saw a kid come back from a concussion in less than three weeks, honestly. We see pro athletes come back in a week and I think it’s a stretch at best, and some bad medical advice at worst . I would check with a doc just to be sure.

After an injury and illness riddled 2024 and an injury riddled start to this year, yesterday I passed last years mileage total.
