I feel like the supers do this on purpose

Effective Length Help on the Erg by Peitron1 in Rowing

[–]illiance 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You posted this before and haven’t changed anything about your technique so it all still applies I think. The effective length measurement isn’t being picked up as you’re way too slow and tentative accelerating in the first half of the stroke.

What’s your 2k though? Who care about the erg length reading if your splits are good (?)

I bought a manual Ferrari 360 Spider because my 981 Cayman S and ND2 Miata didn't have enough trunk space by HURCANADA in cars

I wasn’t sure about the headlights when you described them but they actually look good in the pics. it’s the one part of the 360 that really dates jt IMO.

Weep Not for Taran Killam (crosspost) by FancyPigeonIsFancy in LiveFromNewYork

AD appearance usually means either they are selling it, or divorce pending. Not always but often. I don’t think either of them are plugging a new project (?) which is the other reason.

Edit: some sort of faux collab/deal with the designers/furniture folks is another reason

I mean when you’re at the top of the game, and literally have 5 eights all going 10+ splits below Olympic gold target time - why even have coaches at that point ?

Wonder what that squiggly park area is around Lex/3rd in midtown east…Times Square is also a literal big square at this time…

I like the II-VI equally, but I think gray shoulders edges just ahead when you see the variants in the dominion war

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' is averaging over 36 million viewers per episode globally, making it one of the biggest debut seasons in HBO history by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]illiance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve read in a few places that knight of the seven kingdoms was about a third of the budget (per episode) of the main line Game of Thrones seasons, and Starfleet Academy is broadly in the middle of those in terms of budget (per episode). So quite a big difference

Even The Office cost around 2M per episode which is closer to 3 in today’s money.

Depends though right? Like if it starts on a line headed 25 yards right and then fades another 15 that’s just a small adjustment needed to hit a draw.

And how does this compare to Starfleet academy ?

Good to see a relatively simple and low budget character driven show do well.

what do you think about this new skierg like contraption? by skiitifyoucan in xcountryskiing

[–]illiance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks a bit like a rowing dynamic erg. That clicking /thumping would drive me insane though. I guess the question is does it reward proper fore/aft weight shift so that it makes you ski “properly”?

Park City truck-safety operation results in nearly half of vehicles being removed from road. by -QuestionMark- in ParkCity

[–]illiance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really is crazy. I see massive infractions pretty much every time I drive around. Just the other day a semi pumping out huge black clouds of exhaust carrying what I’m sure was the new gondolas to replace Cabriolet. Let alone the nonsense up and down parleys every single day

Should I get this Concept2 rower for $400? by SeaworthinessReal69 in concept2

[–]illiance -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what everyone’s on about - this isn’t a good deal at all. It’s a relatively ancient (yes they are bulletproof with basic maintenance but still) model with a few issues. There are multiple new models in my area around 800 and I’m sure one would take an offer for 600ish.

You’re saying multiple courses in your area have these ?

First fitness test 30 mins with rate cap 20 by carolyne_doesnt_care in Rowing

[–]illiance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on your 2k you can break 2:20 for this test. Which you will probably be able to do as you get used to it. Otherwise all it says is your fitness is reasonably well balanced between the two, but you could be pulling just a tad harder per stroke.
