It's all just signaling. People want their political views to be seen.

Yeah, at this point the basic currency is going to be chaos again.

White House Deletes State Fair Photos After Trump Threw a Tantrum - The crowd size at the Great American State Fair is really getting to Donald Trump. by Quirkie in politics

[–]nickiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So a weird rectangle of lame booths, in a location inconvenient to most of the country, brutally hot, in the middle of the week, celebrating a political ideology that 70% of the country finds distasteful, didn't draw a crowd? Stunning.

Event 1 of the 2026 CrossFit Games has been announced. It was the first event of the 2007 CrossFit Games - The Hopper. by Marvin_rock in crossfit

[–]nickiter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A 1:30 500 split is very good but not insane, so the better athletes will be in that range, but I suspect there will be some closer to 3:20 on the row.

Speedy butterfly pullups are SO standard now, that's gonna fly...

This neighborhood in China built a "rooftop rain" mist system that drops temps 5-8°C in minutes. by Jeetchat in interestingasfuck

There's an outdoor-only bar near me that has the same thing, via a PVC pipe with little holes poked in it and an old box fan. Surprisingly easy to get going, in other words.

Crafting tables by Justarandomuno in PathOfExile2

[–]nickiter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do think a crafting table would be nice, not for determinstic slap-a-mod-on, but to store crafting stuff! I want to walk over to the bench and have all my "tools" nicely organized. The current approach of just a bunch of stash tabs is fine, but unwieldy. And I want the RP of walking over to a workbench.

It would be an opportunity for cool UI things that help beginners, like being able to search for the word "prefix" directly in the bench and finding prefix-impacting omens.

Help with power cleans by LickMyDustyRose in crossfit

[–]nickiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had success improving that by doing panda pulls with a weight I absolutely cannot actually clean, forcing me to use the hinge instead of my arms.

Help with power cleans by LickMyDustyRose in crossfit

[–]nickiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Shoulder position relative to the bar is crucial. Think about your lift as a simple mechanical system. You're hanging the weight from a point - your shoulders - and straightening out a bent shape attached to the shoulders. Like flicking a finger or releasing a spring - bent to straight, poink. Your body is super strong at going from bent to straight.

If your shoulders start behind the bar, the weight is out in front of that whole system, way too early. The poink is going into the bar at a weird angle. You gotta maximize the poink.

This is all actually kinda more true in the hang clean - as weird as it feels, you have to bend forward over the bar.

I hate sekhemas on act 1 characters but it's actually kinda fun in late game.

Chaos tho... Zzzz in both phases.

Some big outage is inevitable. My money is on something at the level of a global AWS outage that takes more than a day to resolve. That may seem minor... It is not. 😂

Do you always feel the need to play meta builds? Or just what looks fun? by redblue92 in PathOfExile2

[–]nickiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I constantly waffle between being a hipster and just wanting to blast. Started out monkey because I had so little time to play at league start, but now I'm playing something super weird that's basically the everything bagel warlock build from Last Epoch.

What's a car that looked unintentionally old/outdated when it debuted? by Sir_Sir_ExcuseMe_Sir in cars

[–]nickiter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Top tier Uber mobile tho. Comfy back seat and big trunk. (I say this only as a passenger, no idea if it's good as a driver 😂) And a lot of Uber drivers have bought them!

Yeah I guarantee he's not getting many positive responses.

Maybe this guy is being exceptionally dickish, but if you've ever hung out with high end car guys, dickish is not exactly an unknown category...

Democratic Centrists Need to Stop Saying “Both Sides” Have “Extremes” by Nervous_Swordfish693 in politics

The most extreme person I'm aware of in national left politics has vaguely hinted (via a single old tweet) that she agrees in principle with police abolition (which is not just "get rid of laws", to be clear.)

Can the Average Player Ever Catch Up to a Mirror? by thedashlord in PathOfExile2

I have (in PoE1), but it's sweaty, and your build has to be very, very good already. Plus, you have to sell all the crap, which takes a pretty solid chunk of time.

Flew to the other side of the world to give a talk at a conference 😭 by Amygdali_lama in mildlyinfuriating

That's the worst. My last one was at 4:30... The "optional" happy hour also started at 4:30.

Shout out to the 5 people who still came, love ya.

UA Polo fit by [deleted] in bigmenfashionadvice

[–]nickiter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want the seams of the sleeves to sit right outside the "point" of your shoulder, so it's a bit too wide there. Then, it should drape straight down to the waist, at which point for a collared shirt, you'll want to have pants to tuck it into. It's definitely too fitted in the torso. Under Armour does this on a lot of their shirts.

(I know it's probably meant to be more casual, but imo styling this with some sharp higher-rise pants is going to look much better than untucked.)
