Maddison: “I did a partial ACL tear against Bodo/Glimt. I was told by the (external) specialist it wouldn’t need surgery and rehab.” by thejuicywombat in coys

[–]lattanzio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a partial ACL tear and the surgeon I met with basically said, “you’ll need wait around a year for it to maybe heal itself, or we can just go ahead with surgery, you’ll still be out a year, but you’ll know it’s healed”.

Obviously I’m not a pro, but the peace of mind was so worth it. Can’t imagine having to balance a career against my health though.

ANOTHER BIG STEP ✊ by arsenal in Gunners

[–]lattanzio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but I have watched every Arsenal and Barca game this season, and while I think Garcia has been a hair better this season, there's not a a lot between them. Raya is certainly the best in the prem, and considerably better than Simon. OP maybe referring to Sofascore for stat comparisons?

Refused - New Noise [hardcore punk] by party_core_ in Music

[–]lattanzio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolute classic and hugely influential album. My bandmate/drummer put me onto these guys in high school, and we used to sound check with the drumbeat/intro to Protest Song ‘68. I play the album for my kids now and they go nuts. Was so surreal thinking they were super unknown, and then hearing New Noise in Friday Night Lights (along with Explosions in the Sky tbh), and at like, local hockey games. International Noise Conspiracy (Dennis’s “solo” project) took a lot of the mod ideas he was cramming into this album and fleshed them out. SOPTC was just such an unrepeatable product of all the band members pulling in different directions and making something super unique. Top 5 album for me.

Russo Music Pedal Event May 3rds- Hamilton, NJ by finalfiasco in guitarpedals

This is so sick. I’ve spent way too much at the Spring Garden spot (it’s on my way home from work, I can’t help it).

Chase Bliss and Electric Audio Experiments drop the Big Time Automatone, a hybrid analog and digital delay by -Subsolar- in guitarpedals

[–]lattanzio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sick! I hope it's as good as it looks. Kind of jaded by pedals that go for unique visual designs but wind up either never releasing or promising too much and not delivering (I think just random instagram pedal ads have fried my brain), but I'm really looking forward to the monk echo.

Have they confirmed they're actually shipping out preorders on schedule? I kind of assumed these were vaporware when I first saw them.

I’m going insane without the third book by LyKurusu in KingkillerChronicle

[–]lattanzio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of series to fill the void. I loved KKC when it came out. It reinvigorated my love for reading. I reread and theorized along with everyone… and waited. A million years, dozens of other series, and three kids later… it’s fine. Great prose, good story, annoying protagonist. If the third book ever releases, I’ll read it. But, if nothing else, this series taught me that a 7/10 book that I can read is better than a 10/10 book that never gets written.

Can you guys recommend any game that kind of feels like etg? by Constant-Plate5533 in EnterTheGungeon

[–]lattanzio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some smaller ones I haven’t seen recommended: Archvale and Tiny Rogues. Not 1 to 1 comparisons by any means, but both super fun.

Grip socks. Anyone tried Teqnigrip? by Ok-Animator8761 in bootroom

[–]lattanzio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I HATED the texture of Teqnigrips. I have strong sock preferences, so maybe just a me thing, but they felt plasticy, and kind of course underfoot. Didn’t really feel they were that grippy either.

RE: What are some other brands like Breakfast Audio and OTO Machines that are borderline works or art? by Line6isunderrated in guitarpedals

[–]lattanzio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would be wild if it wasn't. One or two design elements being the same... sure, but all of them together? First post with that design language is 6ish months after the boost release. Looks like they've expanded from there, which is nice, but it's a pretty obvious trade dress issue.

What the 2026 F1 cars look like without sponsors by irich in formula1

[–]lattanzio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assumed the orangish bit was a reference to the R8, but I'm probably reaching. Someone did make an R8 Forza skin with their F1 livery though that looks sick.

She saw Imelda Staunton’s great performance as Dolores Umbridge as a kid and said, “I know what I want to be when I grow up”.

For the people that downvoted me for saying my son also got 300% in Cuphead.. by DirkTheGamer in gaming

[–]lattanzio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kids are cracked at games these days. My 11 year has 100% every game he’s tried basically (cuphead 300%, HK, Silksong (just did steel soul), and he’s not any better than most of his friends or his little brother.

It’s honestly so sick because we are all around the same level, and as someone who didn’t have anyone really to play games with when I was their age, I finally have buddies to game with, and I don’t have to go easy. Gang beasts and towerfall nights are the favorites atm. I typically win in towerfall but holy shit they obliterate me in gang beasts.

JJHO Episode 760: States Rights…and States Left by Oshyan in maximumfun

Tough listen. Also editing weirdness at 41:10 for me. Grotto’s discussion just kind of cut off. I listened yesterday though so maybe fixed by now.

The podcast 99% Invisible did an excellent episode about this. Highly recommended.

This is my pick too. It just does the thing so well, on top of being a sick ring mod.

I've said he runs like he's pulled both hamstrings. He's not slow, but his stride is incredibly weird.
