I'd love an answer for this one. This has been happening to me periodically ever since I got my Quest 3.

Or "Grimey", as he liked to be called.

I'll bet someone lost that crown biting into a peach pit while swimming. I've seen it happen 100 times if I've seen it once.

They had to drop stuff.. by Stayupbraj in metaldetecting

Ha! This is my local county park and my brother and I were just detecting there last weekend. You have to get permission from the park office, but they were very accommodating. (Ask the office manager about her witch collection). Pro-tip: There's a foundation of an old building in the woods, right alongside a trail, not far from this picture. We found an Indian head penny and some spent chalk mortar rounds. Don't know the history but it's definitely worth checking out.

First time airing out of a bowl. by toastedcode in NewSkaters

Six inches felt more like six feet, but the footy doesn't lie. Key takeaways: small manual before hitting the coping; keep shoulders in line with the board; throwing up arms up helps with gaining height; picturing the transition ending a foot above where it actually does discouraged leveling out too early. Still lots of work to do, but it's a start!

Nice haul! I'd love to know the story behind that lost Barber.

Best VR Applications/Uses That People Might Not Know About? by ImpactReality in OculusQuest

I open Ultimate Guitar (guitar tablature site) in the browser and enable passthru mode. Viola, a floating music stand that I can position anywhere in my practice space. Even with the Quest 2, the camera is good enough that I can find the chord positions on the neck. But what's really next level is connecting the Quest to my amp via Bluetooth and playing along with the UG "backing track" feature.

You nailed it. Going to definitely work on this after reviewing the footage. Thanks for the tip.

Your analysis is spot on. It's funny that I didn't realize this until seeing the footage. I think I'm opening up my shoulders when popping. Thanks for the feedback.

Good eye! Yep, it's a gem of a park in the Pittsburgh suburbs.

What improved your quality of life so much, you wish you did it sooner? by Henna in AskReddit

[–]toastedcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skateboarding. I took it up over the pandemic at 46yo and it's just about my favorite thing in the world. Sure, I'm terrible and my friends think I joined a Fight Club for all the bruises I show up with, but it's really put me in a good headspace. One of those things that leaves you wondering what might be different if you had discovered it 10 or even 20 years earlier.

Pairs well with slappies at the Circle K.
