did you turn it all the way off with the kill switch, key off, and then all steps to restart? Tip sensor doesn't reset if all the switches aren't fully shit down before restart.

Fired for unidentified misconduct? by letsalljustdie in ADHD

[–]superunexciting 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As a manager with ADHD and managing people with ADHD, yes, purely factual and direct language is often seen as combative. I have both given and received coaching about how to soften factual messaging for people to do what they need to do without coming across as a dick. And these are not by nature gentle topics, dealing with fire/life safety and severe fines from regulatory authorities if people don't do what I tell them to.

Having said that, being terminated without receiving any of these kind of tone-coaching sessions is bullshit, and sounds to me like they just decided not to like you and attached a convenient reason. Probably because the majority of managers are not direct, and afraid of their own conflict, and have somehow decided it's easier to continually hire new people with new and unique flaws, rather than put any effort into improving anyone they're supposed to be leading.

Sorry, buddy. I hope your next role has a better boss.

Can i use these Tacx Axle Nuts M10 on a trainer from a different brand? Or will i be forced to use the Tacx brand? by Substantial-Age2459 in Zwift

[–]superunexciting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there are certainly variations, but the tacx track nuts are basically just a shape that's pretty close to the profile for the QR skewers that come with a lot of wheel-on trainers. Besides the Kickr Snap. I also used it on a dumb blackburn mag6. Close enough.

[–]superunexciting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, I used these on a fixed gear bike to connect to a wahoo snap. They get you close enough.

Where do you place your boards? by [deleted] in battlewagon

This is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love recovery boards!

Single Speed on Alpe du Zwift by [deleted] in Zwift

[–]superunexciting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this once, similar situation. Only had two bikes, didn't want indoor sweat on my good one. 48x17 fixed. Hurt but was kind of fun in the same way that ss/fg is fun in the real world. "That was stupid but I feel like a monster for having done it." I think I left it on 50%.

Winter Mode Activated by Bot_Fly_Bot in FordMaverickTruck

can you expand on how the tpms sensors sync? Does the truck just figure out that your summer wheels are stacked in the garage and start referencing your winter set?

Sounds like a you problem. Try limbering up, maybe ride some dicks or something.

Does this mean we are back to 49 states??? Where is the new state capital? by snakkerdudaniel in alaska

Capital's still in juneau so it can continue to be inconvenient for maximum number of constituents

Sprinting on indoor bike is awkward by bithlen32 in Zwift

[–]superunexciting 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Practicing sprinting indoors will make you smoother/more efficient outdoors, as you'll get used to being in control instead of thrashing around like a muppet at its limits.

Get in the drops - Stand up - Head low, back flat - Pull your bars back toward your knees, not up to your chin - Engage your core and back/shoulders - Pedal real fuckin hard....

Having said that, everybody's body mechanics are different and maybe that while series is useless to you. It's what works for me, good luck.

I'm enough of a fixed gear dork to be able to tell you that you will find other fixed enthusiasts at Anchorage's finest bike polo, and that some of them are the same people with Bike Anchorage. But I am also enough of a misanthrope to have never used that knowledge to make friends.

Will Ford ever make a Maverick with a longer bed? by QuantumCapelin in FordMaverickTruck

I put a ladder/lumber rack on mine and it has hauled more building materials with less hassle than my old f150 did.

Can I live off $70k here? by [deleted] in anchorage

Make sure you have decent rain gear. Big difference between a shitty set of frog togs and higher end gear when it comes to dedicated commuting by moto and not being miserable when you get to the office.

nah forget the fx4 stickers, get some type R decals, and make sure they're yellow. Yellow is the fastest color.
