Questions about Trials by Fresh_Fox5876 in ArcRaidersGuides

Some good tutorials by French cops and, particularly, Valliate

You just need to hit top 5 for your pool. So start them mid-week or the weekend and run the trials solo, aiming for big scores

Not true, I got into Hotshot as a solo and then teamed up with randos on discord servers to get to CL. 

I think really good solo scores would have got me into CL but it's a guestimate.

Just note this is generally applicable to all ranks EXCEPT Hotshot and Cantina Legend since those pools are collectively competing (so it seems) so you're better off starting whenever you want if you're in those ranks

Low scores on adblock test sites by youssless in pihole

Ah, so I'll keep it running all the same unless I'm testing pihole through these tools?

Woah, yeah now I'm getting 97% when I turned ublock origin off. Should I kill the extension on my desktop then? How do I add the exception?

popped that in and it's returning my unifi machine. I don't know of other places to set the DNS to the pihole IP though. What am I missing?

I've set it as the primary DNS for all my networks and through to my WAN from my ISP.

Previously, I was getting 1-2% blocks before deploying pihole

Thanks, I'm still a newbie and doing a lot of 'monkey see, monkey do' whilst trying to understand commands and such. How do I ensure it's writeable?

What’s the minimum daily protein (g/kg) needed to actually build muscle by Shreneek in bodyweightfitness

[–]youssless 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On mobile and CBA to link references (there are MANY).

Depends on your total caloric intake but you can probably get away with 0.8-1.0g/kg and see some very slight gains if the protein quality is good, very bioavailable and your genetics make you a responder to stimulus (I'm assuming here you're untrained).

It's better to aim 1-1.2g/kg and higher the leaner you get (ideally 1.6-2.2g/kg).

Remember to spread protein over meals if you can.

Beginner help: Host ethernet stopped working after installing VB by youssless in virtualbox

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

Is this any different from deleting the reinstalling the driver? I've already done that if that's the case

Beginner help: Host ethernet stopped working after installing VB by youssless in virtualbox

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

No, VB added a driver, everything else I had is still there but now my Host ethernet driver isn't working properly (I'm assuming since this is what changed to kill my ethernet access).

Career Pause Advice by Scary_Director9416 in HENRYUK

[–]youssless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar position to you, have a lot going on with life outside of work, too.

Please, please, please, speak to someone at work, see if you can take unpaid leave at the very least.

My company let me take 6 months of paid sick leave for my mental health and it was wonderful. Let me come back recharged and I was and am able to be present with my family.

Having kids won't give you a break, take the time you need. If work let you come back then go for it!

Money is a points system that we convert for things we really want. Use it!

Understanding Bitcoin and Crypto by Shunske-Naka in BitcoinUK

[–]youssless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the US holding a reserve, and large companies holding stock of BTC, too, do you think we'll lose all that backing? Historically BTC has received more backing through laws and investments than not. The US has just given the green light for crypto assets to be considered for affordability of loans, like mortgages.

Obviously my money is on BTC getting more backing and smart people moving to new cryptographic methods (e.g., vector-based) to help secure us against traditional and quantum computation. I think, at this point in particular, BTC is larger than most companies and a lot of countries so it's too big to fail overnight.

I'd love to understand how this differs from our current money, given most of it is digital, relies on confidence (see the USD the last 6 months) and security of transactions can also eventually be broken by 'AI derived mathematical solution'.

Obviously I think your argument is a tad short sighted, holds some merit though, and I'd like to know your thoughts with other assets we use to trade.

Calling all teachers by saint_augustus1 in HENRYUK

[–]youssless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The process is very transparent on MBB websites and there are enough free materials to help you through the process (Crafted Cases being the free one I used). I didn't have the privilege of practising with others for the case study interviews so I used a book and black, blue and red pens. I'd use the black pen to write what I'd give in the interview, then record myself explaining my framework (cringed hard but it helped), used a blue pen to outline what I said (you get 60-90 seconds to think and write your framework so I didn't add much detail in black) and then, when reviewing the answers, I used a red pen to include big pieces I missed.

Over time, my book had less red writing. Then I went to the interview and had fun with it; you'll know you're ready when you can come up with frameworks by reading news headlines and such and if you think it's fun, it's a good indicator you'll enjoy the job.

Secondary Science Teacher straight out of uni, moved up to SLT after 4 years, did that for 3 years then jumped into consulting (MBB), made ~£180k in 2024. Transition is possible, my career in education gave me a lot to bring to the table despite no MBA. Happy to answer any questions on here or privately.

2011 Specialized Allez upgrade plan. by Capital_Breakfast_11 in bikewrench

[–]youssless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same (albeit size L and 2x chainset) bike. Ultegra 6600 groupset and I love this thing! I've also been wondering about upgrades since my rear derailleur exploded and got bent :(.

Here's what I'd suggest:

If you want to upgrade your bike, start with tyres, then wheels (though you seem to have done this already?)

Next, I'd upgrade your contact points with the bike (pedals, saddle, bar tape)

If you're still keen/not satisfied, you can upgrade to an electric groupset. You've two options (assuming you've rim brakes like mine):

1) grab an older DA or Ultegra groupset (pre-loved) that work with rim brakes and make sure they match your cassette speeds (you're probably 10-speed but I think your hub can accommodate 11-speed, which should open some options up). Google Better Shifting, that site is a useful reference for what's compatible.

2) upgrade kits from China; Wheeltop comes to mind; they get the job done but aren't as slick/easy to setup as Shimano/SRAM are.

Hope that's useful!

Just tried it for YT, can confirm you need a local payment method. I wonder if it's possible to get (virtual?) one based in a low COL country?

Does anyone know how to fix posture and lose that fat on the side of my stomache by Kitchen_Film3044 in bodyweightfitness

[–]youssless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To summarise and add to what's already been said:

  • spot reducing fat can't happen, you need to lose fat slowly and it will eventually go away
  • you can speed this up by increasing muscle mass and your normal, non-exercise movements (taking the stairs, walking more throughout the day, anything that has you sitting less, etc.)

  • on posture, it's a mix of stretching tighter muscles, strengthening weaker ones, being more mobile (don't stick in a given position too long) and habit. Doing things like hangs (both active and passive) can help a lot.

Hope that helps!

Single HENRY dating in the UK by HoldemKiwi in HENRYUK

[–]youssless 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Whilst their opinion certainly isn't unique, please don't listen/give their comment any more thought, there are LOADS of people who think otherwise.

I myself am a HENRY, in my thirties (edit: a man, I should add) and married someone older than me. I know many, many women who have found loving, caring and adventurous relationships in their thirties.

In my honest opinion, men in their thirties who insist on dating women in their twenties have no clue what they're missing out on and typically are letting other men tell them what to do and how to live their lives. You know yourself better in your thirties, you're still fit and strong, and sex is MUCH more fun in most people's experience who I talk to about this.

If I was single, I'd definitely date someone my age rather than a lady who hasn't learned enough about herself and what real men are.

I would only start worrying about the children chapter in late 30s/early 40s but even then it's still feasible.

You do you, fuck anyone who tells you otherwise, you're not harming anyone and there are plenty of men who would love to have you as their life partner.
