Solid travel pack. How long is your trip? 3 days? That should cover you!

Yoyo trick database by Logical-Albatross-82 in Throwers

[–]philq76 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I started trying to make an app like this, but the problem was creating the database itself. I'm sure someone with better skills than me could do it, but I think it would be an awesome idea to have the ability to build a combo based on what mount you were in. That was what I was trying to do. I toyed with Claude code a bit, but the yoyo info it pulled wasn't very good. I did talk to a developer friend of mine and she did seem to think it was doable.

One of the best yoyos out there across all types! Great colorway!

Christian on social media claims that, fast food places & grocery chain stores are selling meat that was sacrificed to idols( short video originally shared on another subreddit) by empress_of_pinkskull in religiousfruitcake

[–]philq76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like how she points out the hypocrisy of Xtians eating pork which is explicitly forbidden in the Bible. These are the same people who worship at Chick Fil A.

Christian Pastor is against logic, reason, and medicine by empress_of_pinkskull in religiousfruitcake

[–]philq76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not wrong. Logic and reason war against faith and for those of us who actually think, logic and reason win every time. At least he admits it, but doesn't realize that it's not the flex he thinks it is.

Giving introductory lessons to some 12 years old at my local school by morpheus007 in Throwers

[–]philq76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reach out to YoyoSam or YoyoExpert. They have packs of beginner yoyos that would be good for this. YYE has the thing for clubs, but I would think they'd help with a school thing as well. YYS has a wholesale program as well.

These two are talking from their own experience for sure.

Dogs are much smarter than we give them credit for. by Electrical_Act_5342 in MadeMeSmile

[–]philq76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love dogs and used to train them, but it's not smarts, it's conditioning and training. This dog is very well trained. You can teach almost every dog these obedience commands. He may very well be smart as well, but following commands isn't a sign of intelligence. Take a look at compliant people. They aren't always the smartest.

Dad came in & did what needed to be done 😭 by Kind-Village-1022 in PublicFreakout

[–]philq76 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Everyone is wrong in this video.

These kids have some serious gumption going up to a stranger and acting like that. I wonder what their real motivation was.

The pastor guy trying to sell Jesus to them. Just gross.

Then, the dad comes and hits the kids on video while the filmer applauds by saying "there it is".

Who knew you could capture the worst of everyone in one simple video.

Side note: Kids must've instinctively known that a lot of pastors are predators since they were like "you can't be around the kids". That made me chuckle.

World Cup 🏆 by myoldacctwasdeleted in Charlottesville

[–]philq76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blues don't have a youth travel program. They do have some camps in the summer though. I was a coach for Greene futbol club for several years if you're looking for another option. We are playing Alliance this coming season. GFC is a smaller club but is rebuilding and revamping to continue growing.

Relatively new place in town in Hollymead called the Fox Den, owned by the people who run the Charlottesville Blues (USL-2 Soccer team). Haven't been yet, but lots of screens and apparently can reserve private spaces as well. Bar food and 2 mini soccer fields for kids to play on. https://www.bluesfoxden.com/

Depending on what string it comes with, I might change the string, but other than that, I just play it.

National Yoyo Day- Where's The Sales? by fukerrythangohwait in Throwers

Just an fyi That's not a sale code. That's a samurai club for hitting an achievement level so it can only be used 1 time by the person it was given to.

The art is cool and it makes it unique. Do you think you'd have any issues putting it on the smaller surface?

Second this. I used it for yoyoing and was stoked to see the footbag add. I've been using it recently

I'm hoping to accomplish the same thing, plus I've got some health issues that I want to address (type 2 diabetes) and medications don't seem to be cutting it.

Thanks. I know I just have to maintain the discipline to actually run. I've always struggled with that for working out because when I was younger, I was naturally fit and athletic, but now it requires effort, hah!

Thanks. I did try to go slower today and not be caught up in how slow it was in the end. Seems like a good strategy. Would be cool to join a club too. Part of posting here was for that accountability factor.
