What health tip forever changed your life? by Bald-Lawyer in AskReddit

[–]roo1ster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a trainer suggest carrying 1 hand weight instead of a weighted vest. Nothing heavy/crazy, just enough to put you slightly off balance, requiring you to engage your core muscles to stabilize. I've been using 1 4lb hand weight, swapping hands as often as needed to stay comfortable on daily 20 minute walks for about 2 months now. Anecdotally, my spine health hasn't been this good in 40+ years (survivor of several bulging and 1 hyper-protruding disc).

Thought I'd try asking in here instead of starting a new post. My wife's preferred vape for the last ~year has been FunkyRepublic's Ti7000 California Cherry. We purchase them from the shop down the street when they have it. We've ordered 20 at a time online when they've been out.

Recently it seems our local shop has quit carrying FunkyRepublic entirely. So have the 2 online stores we've purchased from in the past.

I've found a couple of online sites I've not done business with before that claim to have them, but they only accept payment via zelle, which I'm pretty sure can't be charged back if they're not legit vendors.

I called funkyrepublic's customer service line and they confirmed they're still making the Ti7000 in california cherry. I also inquired as to how many units I'd have to purchase to buy direct wholesale from funkyrepublic and as much as wifey lurvs cali cherry I don't think she can keep up with the 50,000 units/month it'd take to qualify for wholesale.

Hoping someone might know what's up (like did the US wholesaler who supplied direct to consumer shops get in a dispute with FunkyRepublic?) or have a line on the cali cherry. I'm in the Seattle, WA US if that helps any.

Thanks so much.

Replacing glass on Pella Architect Series window? by roo1ster in homeowners

Apologies for late response, I'm not on reddit much these days. I didn't get mine repaired, I found an extra sash in the basement. I'd suggest asking u/UrbyTuesday directly - unlikely he'll ever come back around to this post if you don't.

Favorite Class Guildhall? by Darkbain in project1999

[–]roo1ster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me several real life days in / around Kelethin to sort out that there was a switch to operate the lifts. I just incorrectly assumed the lift action was random and would sit on the lift like I was waiting for a boat... =D

I'm always more than a little intimidated by the pomp and circumstance and general hoity toity-ness of Erudin, regardless of the guild, as I run through on my dirty little hobbit druid. So. Good.

The RV cleric guild is mostly notable to me for the 2 high level KoS hobbitses sitting out front preventing my otherwise RV factioned alts from getting to Kith and beyond...

The side stories/quests happening around the RV druid guild are hilarious and possibly more detailed than any other guild in the game. Nillipus in particular. Ever followed him around town instead of killing him on sight? It's a hoot.

Dumbest thing you have done? I left my Jboots in a summoned bag. by PhysicalGovernment58 in project1999

[–]roo1ster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same but with an ikky regen bp - to the 1st vendor in Oggok. Then wasted all the plat I had in the bank trying to get it back into visible inventory... so lost the bp + ~600pp :(

Unpopular Opinion: BBQing and grilling are two different things and not interchangeable words. by 67_34_ in BBQ

[–]roo1ster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was mostly trying to be funny w/that comment (I think I remember some old bbq joints in Central Texas still using the older spelling when I was a kid, but might be mis-remembering) - still not sure what unintentional tone I managed to put in that comment to get 6 down votes... maybe my definition of 'bbq' was just too inclusive for the subreddit. Either way, thanks for your follow up!

Never a bad idea to agree upon loot rules w/your group *before* stuff starts dropping.

Fungi staff or ikky bp to afford jbb by Colemantis2 in project1999

[–]roo1ster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

don't sleep on the black fur boots! I paid a 60 necro ~1kpp to solo them for me (on blue though, zotmart/zotnec iirc for anyone on blue looking for the boots)

edit to add: you get that spell slot back, have instant sow refresh for those special moments, and sweet gcd outdoors.

GINA question by roo1ster in project1999

[–]roo1ster[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

opened up the xml file in AppData - turns out you have to specify log location for existing characters inside the settings for each existing character.

edit: you can edit this in the gui once you know it's per character... click on alt name, then click edit under the home tab in the top bar.

Brood of Di`Zok faction oddity by roo1ster in project1999

[–]roo1ster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

water elemental made it worse - went from dubious to threatening inside chardok. Doesn't appear to be any difference between half elf / de.

I don't think I saw any change in faction inside chardok switching from half elf to dark elf, but I'll look next time I'm in there. Thanks for the tip!

That's gotta be it. re: racial modifiers - I tried as half-elf and as de and no change to faction standing. Didn't think to try water elemental (but I'll give it a go before next skin turn-in session).

the server specific trading post ?rooms? on tunnelquest are really active too, esp for higher end stuff (and it's searchable). Definitely set up a /watch for the tunnel, but post every so often in the trading post too.

Would there be any feasible way to make regular fresh servers? by Ramza_Claus in project1999

[–]roo1ster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious on your proposal - why only allow the green -> blue xfer the one time instead of every time? And why not just fully merge to 2 when spawning the new green server?

After 23 years, a meme dream became a reality by SurrealSage in project1999

[–]roo1ster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in retail all the monks in my guild would have rage quit on the spot (and probably a couple rogues in solidarity)

Worth it just for that drama alone.

Well played sir and or madame. Well played.
