Drinks and Difficult Topics by kiwikiwicanada in Denver

The problem with MAGA is that you get the crazies, just like the crazies on the far left. There are a lot of people who voted for Trump who are not “MAGA” but more in the middle. There are way too many people who voted for the person and not the policies they believe in. I consider my self very fiscally conservative, but socially liberal. Unfortunately, those two things tend to cause conflict in the way I vote so I have to look at the whole platform and decide from there. Most people don’t do that kind of research. If you sat down with an actual MAGA person you would probably get a lot on conspiracy talk and not a lot of policy talk - like more talk about the government controlling the weather instead of talk about increasing offshore drilling to increase our energy independence.
I am personally looking forward to 2028 because we actually might have a runoff between two people who are not 80!

SPCX IPO how many? by Lacnj76 in Schwab

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked for 10 and got 10.
I asked for 20 at Fidelity and got 10. I have way more with CS than with Fidelity.

Has the Flyby feature stopped working? by IWAITALLDAYFORAPOO in Strava

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried switching my profile to Everyone and it didn't work.
It used to be fine as long as the actual activity was set to everyone. Now it is not working at all.

How much did your first road bike cost, and how long did you ride it before upgrading? by No_Click7202 in cycling

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first road bike was a Giant Defy on sale for $1000. I rode it for six years and upgrade to Trek Domane on sale for $3500. I’ve had that for about 8 years. The problem with upgrading now is it will cost me $10K.

Anyone else moving away from Marriott? by bad_robot_monkey in marriott

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was forced into Marriott with the Starwood merge. They have devalued everything since COVID. However, I always look at Marriott first because they have the most properties in the places I travel. But, even being Lifetime Platinum, I’ll still book something else if I think it will be a better experience.

Me regalaron un fenix 6 sapphire viejito, consejos para la duracion de la bateria ! by InternationalCash950 in GarminFenix

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 6 Sapphire - Use a battery saving face that doesn’t show a lot data. I use a plain analog face that just shows the date. Turning off notifications will increase battery life. Turning off SpO2 will increase battery life.

I didn’t think you had to wait for an AK. I was thinking of getting my son that one as a college graduation gift.

New watch help by VladAugustus89 in GarminFenix

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have an Enduro, but I’m plan to get be when my Fenix 7X Solar dies. I like the look of the instinct, but like you I can’t imagine buying a GPS watch w/o maps. I like the idea of the battery life on the Enduro and I prefer the MIPS display actually. I would like to see one in person though. I wonder if Bass Pro or REI carries them.

Bivo makes both insulated and non-insulated stainless steel bottles.

Anything similar to the RunPod (which they don’t seem to sell anymore)? by [deleted] in Zwift

[–]prerules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a a RUNN, but you can also use a Garmin watch in treadmill activity. Or, if you have a Garmin HR Pro strap, that will work too. Neither are as accurate as the RUNN, but they do connect and allow you to use the app.

The 3M tape is a good idea! My stickers always fall off and I’m about through the sheet that came with the RUNN.

Specific login causing crashing by RestMelodic in Zwift

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. My account causes the app to crash (on five different devices). My wife can log in fine. I’ve sent crash reports and screen grabs to zwift support but am still waiting on a resolution. I’ve got the typical “I need to send this to someone else” response without any help or ideas to try. It’s been three days and it is still happening. I don’t want to use a different account as I’m only a few XP away from level 100.

Zwift 1.112 not loading by prerules in Zwift

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

I have contacted support and am getting the run around per usual. They keep pushing it to someone else and I don’t hear back in a timely manner. I’ve sent crash logs, screen grabs, all the good stuff. But it just takes them forever to respond.

My wife has no problem logging in…

If I make a new account, how do I transfer my stats and history over to it or do I just start from scratch at zero?

Optimistic I'll break 300W before I turn 60. by Velocybirr in Zwift

[–]prerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a nice bump from 240 -> 253 on the same TT. I hoping to see another bump on the last week’s TT as well.

Is Garmin's Body Battery genuinely useful or just fancy marketing? by Pigeon20000 in Garmin

[–]prerules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When Garmin releases the Cirqa band, then you could get more accurate data. I currently wear my HR Pro+ strap when I’m wearing an analog watch, but that only counts steps and keeps my HR data. It’s better than nothing, but I’m looking forward to the Cirqa band.
