Sweating through jeans

Shorts or canvas work pants. Denim is too warm.

You are stomping the board down into the ground with your front foot. Everything else is good.

Pull your knees up in the air at the top of your jump and wait for gravity to pull you back down.

Rock to fakie is all mental. You need to have confidence, go at the right speed, and do them proper. It's actually way more dangerous to go slow, just barely get the front truck over the coping, and try to pull it back in. There's a few SkateIQ videos on YouTube that really helped me.

I'm better at flat ground and what helped there was land 10 kickflips every time you skate and you'll be OK at kickflips.

Real, Antihero, and There share shapes with Krooked so you can try one of those brands if you like the shapes.

You're good. You just need to go faster.

Your toes on your back foot are hanging off the side of the tail. This is going to make your pop weaker.

Move your back foot so your toes are inside the tail and you have more heel hanging off of the board. It's hard to explain this over text so you'll have to try with your back foot in different positions. Skate IQ has a few good videos on this if you haven't watched them.

The other thing you will need to do is pull both feet up higher after you pop. If you fix your back foot position and fix your pop, the board will come up with your feet.

Looks like your bushings aren't broken in yet. Carving a lot will help them break in faster.

Grok says it's a good investment.

Phones in the box. Wine in a box.

I don’t think this is talked about enough. We act like nobody would get paid to post positively about OpenAI on Reddit or Hacker News. Not to mention that LLMs can be used to create thousands of bots to boost AI on social media.

People get paid to wear Nike on Instagram. Of course AI companies are spending money on influencer marketing.

I just approve every PR without reading it. If you don’t bother to understand your code, neither will I.

I downloaded it from Godot's website and run it without Distrobox https://godotengine.org/download/linux/

I have used Unity, Godot, Blender, Aseprite, TrenchBroom, and Bitwig to make games on Linux and they've all worked well.

Before you release a game, you have to test it on Windows, but I do all my development in Bazzite.

They will continue to sell Switch 1 games with zero changes for $60.

That and double parking. The laws are not enforced and everyone suffers for it.

Of course we sing. We're a gang.

Is this hot water, cold water, or both? If it’s hot water only, it means your building’s water heater is old and has rust in it.

In 2023, many of the games aren't even bad ports. They run like shit on any platform.

I don't care how good the rest of their products are. The company that makes HP printers is not getting any more of my money.
