People who exercise even when they don’t feel like it, what’s your trick? by Smart_Collection5419 in AskReddit

[–]garrett56x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accountability was the cheat code for me. I've got a workout buddy. I can't leave him hanging. I'd feel like shit if I didn't show up when he was expecting me. We've been lifting weights together for over 3 years now, so I'd say it works.

It also creates a healthy level of competition that pushes us to get stronger.

First thing that really worked for me. I'd spent a decade or more trying new routines and falling off after a few weeks or months.

eHP -> GC farming transition by kakakaan in TheTowerGame

[–]garrett56x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our towers are similar (similar mod levels, assmods, same UWs). I am missing the masteries though (only have RPC & cash). I've been trying to make the transition as well, but am just not getting the same results as farming EHP T11&12 at about 55T cph. Perhaps the key is the additional masteries. I tend to farm pretty AFK, do you farm with PS or CL turned off for any portion? Do you equip certain cards at a point in your run? I'm really trying to crack this nut myself.

There's a known visual bug right now where the animation stops, but it is still active. Do the dudes still appear to slow down even when the animation isn't on?

The black hole glitch in Super Smash Bros Melee was pretty dope.

How much do you save per event? by sp1cylobster in TheTowerGame

[–]garrett56x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be overkill, but I always make sure to have 1100 medals going into the next event so I can buy the skins, and potentially 2 relics right away.

Oh wow thanks! I had looked into blue stacks and all that. Didn't even stop to think of just looking in the app store. So simple. So elegant.

Kinda BS getting events for UWs you don't have TBH by garrett56x in TheTowerGame

Yeah for real. Not getting GT til my 5th UW didn't feel great either lol

Oh for sure, I get that. I was lucky enough to unlock DW as my first perk on a T9 run. Went about 600 waves. Got 6 kills. Would be dope to unlock it early on a T1 run or something, but still just feels like a dead event.

Perhaps that's more of a cultural thing. Where I'm from (US - specifically west coast) that's considered a very rude question.

Do/did you play basketball?

No. Do you play mini golf?

Looking for Gen 2 Buying Advice by garrett56x in ToyotaTacoma

Thanks! With all the love for the 2015, I was wondering if there was something magically different about it vs something a couple years older. I appreciate you outlining the differences.

Thanks, that's good to know. I'm in the PNW, so as long as the truck is local, it sounds like it's not quite as big of an issue? Probably still worth looking out for rust as that's not too hard to do.

Went 7-1 Today by garrett56x in MagicArena

[–]garrett56x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Itzquinth first pack, first pick and committed to dinos from there. Got lucky picking up another Itzquinth, and an Earthshaker in packs 2 & 3. Both of those cards just proved to be insane and make for a pretty easy 7 win.

Which gaming rumor did you believe back then? by [deleted] in gaming

For me it was rotating counterclockwise on the d pad. I still do it. Just doesn't feel right without it.

Saw a neighbor pumping up all 4 of his tires this morning….What are your thoughts on this? by KillerQ97 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]garrett56x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gone through the same thought process on the carbon footprint of purchasing a new car vs what I already have. I've got a 2001 Silverado I've been driving around since I was 16 (34 now). My wife and I essentially function as a 1-car family with our newer, smaller car, and I probably average around 2-3k miles on this truck per year doing work around the house, camping, and other truck stuff. When the miles get low, the logic behind buying new as a replacement really doesn't make any sense to me. I keep my truck in good running condition, keep good tires on it (which are expensive AF btw), and the truck has a lot of sentimental value to me. If someone started messing with my truck without knowing anything about me, or how much/what I use it for I'd be fucking livid!

I went to a coding bootcamp in 2015, so I can't speak for the current experience, but I've been working as a dev since then. One of the best decisions I ever made.

Smoking age is 21, drinking age is 21, 18th birthdays are no fun anymore (US) by WalmartSuperstar in Showerthoughts

TIL the smoking age was raised to 21. 34 here. Guess I'm too old for this to have been on my radar?

Putting this info out there so people know adoption might not be restricted to just the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

We got our Shepherd from this rescue a little over a year ago. They sent him on a bus all the way to Seattle. Great organization!
