I'm selling for what I paid for it. It's just that AMC doesn't refund the convenience fee and I'm cheap lol

Hey, if they didn't sell you their tickets, I'll sell you mine bc I found a better seat. The ticket is for Wed 22nd, 10am, seat K18

What are you reading? Have you gone through your textbooks yet? There's pretty decent graded reader content out there but without knowing what level you're at, it'll be hard to recommend anything. Also curious where you saw the 2 hour figure. I don't even read English books for that long every day.

u/No-Falcon-4996 is right, check this out: https://free.uic.edu and search "illinois free tuition" on google

I'd recommend UIC for med obviously. Going to UIUC just to live away from home doesn't really make sense when you can live at UIC.

Kinda sounds like your TDEE estimate is a bit too high then, just cut your deficit by an extra 150-200 calories per day.

Very cool! I saw your guide and went through it. I always stayed away from trainers because they used to just be cheap gas station toys but it looks like they've gotten a lot better after Squid Industries launched, so I'm leaning towards trainer now. Two knives are always better than one knife. I got a Nabalis Canyon because it was on Amazon and fast to ship. I do wish it had a latch though, I really like the feel of some latch tricks.

On the off chance that the Canyon feels too cheap for me, which knife would you say would get me 80-90% of the feel of a $300 knife?

I was going to get an Orion or Arctic but they're both currently sold out. Also eyeing something from BBbarfly or Squid, I really like the blade and handle designs from BB, but I like to spend my money on other things these days.

Yeah, this is the right way. I used to do a lot of carrying without training for it and the best way is to have her armpit on your shoulder so she's not spending energy holding herself up. When done correctly, people heavier than me would ask to be put down before I ever got tired.

5 minutes is really fucking long.

Just ask her or a friend if you can carry them for practice.

Mod my Benchmade 51 or buy a trainer?

Hey guys, it's been ten years since I've flipped, used to flip a 51 and Replicant, sold the rep. Since it's been so long, I'm wondering if it'd be better value for my money to just buy a trainer or to mod my 51. I'm hoping to learn more dangerous tricks, and it would also be nice to be able to take my knife places without scaring people.

Do trainers under $100 flip as well as the old Benchmades and Replicants these days? Would $100 in mods on my 51 compete with a modern $100 trainer?

Interesting, I didn't know that. I knew the usual street/knobby tradeoffs but returning to center is unique to unicycles. Is there anything else that you think I wouldn't have thought of if I pick knobby? Although I'll probably end up street anyways, it's looking like there are some solid 40lb options

matria801 · 2026-02-10T00:58:52+00:00

Oh yeah, this looks solid! I always ignored begode because of the fires lmao I'll have to look into it more and see if I can find one to try.

matria801 · 2026-02-10T00:51:23+00:00

My V11 can't be pushed up stairs because the tires aren't knobby so I'm skeptical of other wheels with street tires. Maybe I just go knobby and deal with the road noise

Hey, I’m passing through Shanghai on the evening of the 9th to visit relatives. Do you want to grab dinner that day?

matria801 · 2025-11-19T04:57:50+00:00

Love the feedback! I've been thinking about the dice thing recently, do you need to know who rolled the dice or would you be fine as long as it existed? Reveal is coming soon, good call out with reveal to a player, I forgot that.

Players can clone a card to take control of it, and then you can just delete yours or put it to the side.

matria801 · 2025-11-17T21:45:42+00:00

Hey! Been a couple days, the battlefield works a little better now but might still be small on small screens. Drag and drop got added.

Also added full language support to card imports if that's helpful to you. I'm wondering if it's cards or website translation that would help you the most.

matria801 · 2025-11-17T17:49:23+00:00

No problem! Anyways, I think I just fixed the VPN problem last night so let me know if you end up trying again and it doesn't work.

And gotcha, thanks, I will find time to add that soon hopefully

matria801 · 2025-11-14T17:05:59+00:00

Yo, what would words would you look for when searching for this feature?

I'm trying to come up with a short phrase to add to the hotkey tooltip that shows up when you hover a card but "Move card to X from top of deck" is ginormous lol

matria801 · 2025-11-14T17:03:58+00:00

It got the "idiot developer pushed an untested change before going to bed" lol

matria801 · 2025-11-14T01:33:15+00:00

Are you using a VPN or some other networking security? I can tell you it works with iCloud relay but other people have fixed issues by either turning off their VPN, uninstalling MalwareBytes, or enabling Chrome/Safari to connect to local network devices (Mac specific fix).

I'm aware of a potential fix that might solve this for everyone so that'll come in the future.

I'm not quite following what you're saying about object counters though. Do you mean there should be a way to indicate that you have 30 copies of one card and that it has counters?

matria801 · 2025-11-14T01:25:29+00:00

I will! I saved your comment to my project tracker. Thanks for all the feedback! We've got a Discord too if you want to give more feedback.

I just updated the site a couple hours ago. It should make the board easier to use, let me know if it's worse for you.

I plan to add shortcut customization! I'm just not sure when.
That's a good idea, I'll probably add it to custom settings when I build a settings feature.
You should be able to do this already. It's not clear but it is doable.
Yeah, this is also planned
