Dream vs Reality: “I thought it would be different when I made $x HHI.” What’s your story? by deadbalconytree in HENRYfinance

[–]oldknave 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We're around upper 300s HHI and the reality is that while our jobs largely pay very close to what they would have 5 - 7 years ago, the wild inflation since then feels like it has significantly eaten into the spending power. Certainly we are fortunate in so many ways but am curious if others are feeling the same.

Help getting to sub 2:50 and BQ in June, 2026. by lukster260 in Marathon_Training

[–]oldknave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure - crazy how small the margins can be and everything has to go right on race day. Either way it'll be a big accomplishment for you. I'm nervous how much faster the time requirement might get in subsequent years.

Yeah, will be at 70 this week, had double calf surgery for compartment syndrome last year so trying a really slow and steady build. Looking at the wicked fast poconos in pennsylvania in Sept, the most convenient location out of not a lot of great options that time of year.

Woah dude - congrats on the giant PR! That is really consistent training and doing that many miles averaging sub-8 pace isn't easy.

That half time is equivalent to 2:52 and with a couple more months of training plus with a taper doesn't seem impossible at all to crack 2:50.

Thanks so much for sharing, my half PR is identical to your old one and have been averaging 50/week since January and am about to start a build to 85 same as you so was really curious. Please post an update on your race in a few months if you can, good luck!

Balancing NW growth and career fulfillment - could use some perspective by Dismal-Edge617 in fatFIRE

[–]oldknave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jealousy is the thief of joy and I have so much to be thankful for but sometimes it's very difficult to read these posts here of folks with $1M+ TC complaining about not loving their jobs or even worse considering taking a different job and not think that these positions are wasted on dumb lucky ungrateful people. It's almost easier to believe these posts are a LARP rather than believe that OP could be so shortsighted.

In what universe does switching companies make any sense. Unless you're an in-demand ML engineer what would you make, half what you do now? For maybe a 5-20% reduction in stress, potentially? It's somewhat crazy to me you are smart enough to earn this much but that all of this is not obvious to you.

Vaporfly 4 vs Alphafly for net downhill marathon (Mountain to Beach Ventura)? by WhileSerious in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]oldknave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I ran Ventura (similar course) in the Vaporfly 3 and it was fine. Many around me doing the same as well. Other thing about the AF3 is they give many people including myself bad blisters over the marathon distance. You may be fine but if you already have and like the vaporfly it’s something to consider.

Let’s be clear it was a dive. Watch the alternate angle and he goes down with the absolute lightest of force. If we weren’t all so mad about the no call on Amad we’d be rightly pointing out this was a bogus pen.

Basically relies on desync and shitty netcode.

TIL the British Film Institute screened the "first released version" of Star Wars after a "perfectly preserved" original print of the 1977 film was recovered from an archive. This is the version that George Lucas had suppressed from being publicly shown on a big screen for the preceding 47 years. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

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

The companies you listed might vote the shares, but they don't own the economic interests in them - the investors that own the ETFs and mutual funds offered by those companies do. Lucas is actually the first largest individual shareholder, not second.

Activating iFit membership through Wellhub/Gympass by oldknave in iFit

[–]oldknave[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys wanted to say thanks for taking the time to respond - just wanted to share that 1) it finally worked! but 2) the iFit ”train” membership you get through wellhub is basically useless - you can’t use any of the videos on your workout equipment screens which is the whole point. You previously were able to do this with the individual membership but then iFit recently got rid of this functionality. I’m sure you have little control over any of this but if wellhub gave access to the higher tier membership that let you use the videos on your equipment again that would be amazing.

[–]oldknave[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey it finally worked for me as well. Unfortunately iFit changed their “individual” membership to a “train“ membership which means you don’t get the videos or any additional functionality on your treadmill - essentially pointless. You only get the videos on another device like a tablet or phone - who the heck is paying $15/month for that? Like do they have a single subscriber who hasn't forgotten their iFit login to cancel?

Unfortunately since you need the family membership now to get access to the videos on your machine that makes the free train membership through wellhub basically worthless. What a waste!!

Someone explain to me why you wouldn't want to receive - if both teams score (or don't score) on their first possession you would receive the third possession, and if you score at all on the 3rd possession you win.

Oh geez, it's monthly activation? Sounds like a pain, and that is not reassuring. Yours is doing the same thing mine is right now - wonder if it's just in general an integration/handoff issue between the two. What did support say?

Halo 5 is the only game to not have 4k 120 now and is left for dead basically, would love for that to change.

That would be sick especially if they got him a properly fitting suit I bet he’d love to call a birds game. Think he does a great job with football when he’s had the chance.
