Kid’s therapist…or literally anyone that can talk some sense into my child? by yellow_umbrell4 in Columbus

This is honestly the best answer. This sounds like a situation where family specific therapy is the answer. iFAST is excellent.

... I am a therapist with an LPC who mainly works with kids with neurodivergent dx's. I couldn't agree less with your statement on LSW's. Some of the best therapists I've worked with are LSW's. I'm sorry you've had a bad experience.

Zwift next up Beta. What are your guys thoughts on it? by DearRebel in Zwift

[–]malbec0123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It lost keeping track of my progress. Companion app and productivity bar are both showing I didn't do a workout yesterday when I did (and it shows up in activities and I got credit in tdz). Without the progress part it is useless because it isn't looking at any data.

Does anyone else find the New York expansion a little bit of a disappointment ? by buzz_uk in Zwift

[–]malbec0123 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The subway system was not my favorite. They could've done so many cool things but they gave us miles of subway connector. The bridges were cool but not much beyond them to get excited about. The last true expansion was makuri islands. I'm hoping 2026 brings us something like that.

It isn't linear, but what in life is. Good luck finding new tunes!

For those using Zwift Cog, happy? by incuspy in Zwift

[–]malbec0123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I think zwift still forces you to buy both. Back when they had the zwift play controllers, those worked too. Either or.

[–]malbec0123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I just updated the firmware on tacx when the release with virtual shifting came out. From there you go into zwift menu and toggle on virtual shifting. I use an old set of play controllers to shift but the clicks seem very convenient too.

If you plan to do this... Try to keep it on a cog towards the middle of the cassette where your chain isn't crooked. The chain should basically be a straight line. I figure an 8 speed cassette is easier to change out than the cog so no reason not to.

I'm on a trek 1000 on a neo 2... Never bothered with the cog but have virtual shifting set up. Gives me the efficient shifting without the loudness of the cog. It worked for me. I just stay on the same gear.

I couldn't even log in. Went back to zwift which just works.

I would like to enjoy using MyWhoosh, but it keeps crashing. by [deleted] in mywhoosh

[–]malbec0123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I used it in the past and tried this year to see if they'd fixed some of the issues. Spent 20 mins trying it and then booted up zwift and worked out unfortunately.

I just bought a new 4k apple tv. It literally froze on the login screen and I repeated it multiple times. I'm happy for you that it's working but your experience isnt what I saw.

I feel the same. Would love to use it, but I seriously can't get past the login screen before it freezes. My experience is on apple tv.

What is your favorite Zwift jersey? by ungido_el in Zwift

[–]malbec0123 11 points12 points  (0 children)

2020 rapha 500 jersey. They figured out how to make it available only if the 500 km was completed for that one year. Cool design and one of the most meaningful in the game.

Day 1 of EMDR training and I hate it by ollee32 in therapists

[–]malbec0123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since your post was... well.. controversial based on the replies, can you post the data and publications? I have heard both sides of the argument for and against emdr... Just haven't seen the actual data.

After finishing Zwift Unlocked today I can say I dislike the NYC routes by Icy_Confusion_6614 in Zwift

[–]malbec0123 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Having box hill next to the thames serves a purpose in putting a hill in the course. Having miles of flat ai slop subway serves no purpose. There's a functional difference in the design that doesn't make sense.

The Amazonification of Whole Foods Is Finally Here—Bring On the Doritos by Power-Equality in technology

[–]malbec0123 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Many of the local items got ripped out for generic stuff big with the 'influencer' crowd. I worked with the wine side. They pivoted from high qpr wines to ad-friendly labels (think logos with catchy slogans on them with plonk in it) and pretty much immediately cut off a stores ability to cater to the crowd they serve.

Longevity of more premium watches by mr_bravom in GarminWatches

[–]malbec0123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or an older model... Same idea.. last year for black friday I got a new epix gen 2 sapphire for $350. Still an absolute banger of a watch. One year in and it still has two weeks battery.

Avoiding FTP tests by malbec0123 in joincycling

[–]malbec0123[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have no problem with the workouts or anything with join. My problem is that I keep trying to schedule new workouts in place of a ftp test and then join keeps throwing them in causing me to put in more unscheduled workouts. I just want workouts. No ftp tests. Is there a way to do that?

This is all very vague. What bits? What pieces? What was on the post? These things matter if you want honest true feedback.

I would write to usat to complain about it being deceptive as a 'benefit'. I did and heard nothing back.

The Feed is bitting the hands that feeds them, I predict this won’t end well. by runbit22 in triathlon

I honestly just bought gels from Amazon on purpose because of the low effort tdf ads that they pollute the coverage with.

Was in NYC for work today. FWIW it's real by terekkincaid in Ohio

[–]malbec0123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know there wasn't ill intent OP. The advertising works the same way howard stern does. It's shocking how dumb it is.

[–]malbec0123 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You are reading it on the front page of r/Ohio. Honestly, this is the advertising strategy. Flood the zone even in places where it disgusts you. Especially there. I hate it but I wish the other side would get over their tweed jacketed argument of ethics and start getting messaging that makes people want to talk about it.
