My money is on it being a rental

But like, 3.5 to usbc is a 10 buck conversion. Tbh i see merit in double usb c over usbc and headphone jack, might be more doable too, the DAC prolly takes more space than an additional usbc

Depends on the types of commutes you do and where you are.

For kindergarden to work, for me, car and public is basically equal, but it is like 7km. If it is a carshare / rental car then I will end up slower because finding a spot to park is pain, this of course is negated if it were my car since Id have (paid btw at my last employer) employee parking.

It would of course be easier and faster to get the kinds to kindergarden via car, but this is a 15 min walking distance we are talking here.

There are tradeoffs, but ultimately I choose transit and just grab a rental if I actually need a car, which is rare. Mind you I live in the city and the moment I move to a house outside of the city I am getting a car.

I have to say I prefer transit, no stress, no thinking about times and routes, I can read a book, study or just meditate. Not to mention that the costs are sooo much lower. In the city I travel all month for 15 euros.

This is a semi-good LPT. You can save a lot of time and grievance by just not folding your clothes and throwing them into piles (inside boxes or drawers, preferably) by type (socks, underwear, shirts, etc). Bonus tip - if you have a spot where dirty clothes keep piling up (used to be bedroom for me), just put a laundry basket there (in the exact spot you discard your dirty clothes).

If you hate doing laundry, get a dryer and do this, it will make it so much easier. It becomes transport your basket from your aggregation area, dump it in the washer, throw in a random amount of whatever washing thing around, set an alarm on phone, throw it in the dryer, second alarm, take it to your usage pile(s). Turns laundry from tedious into barely a chore.

For encouragement, if that helps, it is a lot easier to get it back than it is to gain it, muscles form a sort of memory (not the muscle memory people usually think of) and once you start using them again, it takes much less time to get back to functionally same strength.

Hard to give you too specific tips, but heres some:

• Spend time fingerboarding every session. During my warmup I like to do sets of 3x 5-8 on 3-5 off, at 60-80% (if closer to 60% then I might do sets of 5) of my maximum. In between hangs ill do 3-5 mins rests where ill be doing other warmup excercises. Don’t need to have legs off the floor, start lower intensity and increase with successive sets. This both helps with long term finger strength, but also makes your fingers grip better for the session since you’ve recruited the muscles by progressively loading them.

• Forget the grade, tape color or whatever system your gym uses. Grading is inconsistent and subjective and does not count your specific strengths and weaknesses. There will be higher grades you can climb and lower ones that will wreck you. Use it as a rough guide, but at the end of the day what matters is how hard the climb is to you.

• In the same vain, forget optics, dont focus on completion as intended, use other holds to make moves easier erc. The goal is to learn moves and get better and have fun. I always try climbs out of my range and I get excited when I can tack on a move I couldn’t make last session. Eventually you can string the whole sequence together.

• Focus on good form (silent, precise steps, good body positions, dropknees etc) on easy climbs, I find this transforms boring climbs into something more interesting. Focus on how this feels. It can make me feel like a pro climber climbing like this on a V0-1-2, you don’t really experience this when climbing hard climbs, the focus is just not there. I do this for my warmup climbs, but returning it can be worthwile dedicating longer sessions to this.

• If you feel climbs are too hard, maybe try the spraywall, if it is set well and the angle is doable. You can find easier versions of moves you can’t do on set problems and it takes away the stress of reaching the finish hold. Just try fun moves.

• Dont overtrain (keep the load reasonable, stop climbing when performance drops, you feel like the grip is just not there anymore), sleep well, eat good food after workouts (all the time, of course, but especially).

• Finish off your sessions with a strength workout, but don’t overdo it. You don’t need gymbro routines with 10 excercises at 5 sets each. Your main training is on the wall. Dont be afraid of “easy” variations. Pullups (with a band if you have to, horizontal or negative pullups), pushups or ring dips (latter is better but harder and more daunting, recruit a band if needed) and a core excercise or squats of some variation, don’t sweat the specific kind at the moment. Anything between 2-5 sets, as you tolarate and want will be fine. I usually jam these into a superset, shooting for reps around 1-2 reps in reserve, with 3-5 mins rest in between sets and since I like to be efficient, I do some flexibility work during that time. For upper body, difficulty in the 3-8 rep range will be best, generally, but this is dependent on the excercise. If you hit 10-12 3x, you can safely move to a harder variation.

E: Oh, and importantly, rest between attempts, dont keep throwing yourself at the wall and expect better performance without rest. Start from the place you failed so you can try the hard move rested.

Teach me the non-sweaty ways. I love my bike, but theres no way I can arrive not sweaty. Before you say go slow, I’m not letting no bus take my god-damn glory.

In regards to #1 - I have never understood the whole blood related = gross. Like I get it, risk of genetic disease is much higher.But I have always though that the grosness comes from the nature of the pre-existing relationship dynamic.

Lets say two peoe who met in their 20s and are married do an ill guided mail-in ancestry test and find out they are 1st cousins or even siblings. Apart from the obvious issue of managing offspring risk, I don’t see why this would automatically kill the relationship or be gross.

E: Interesting, seems ive hit an unpopular opinion. Anyone care to elaborate?

Absolutely yes to the first part, just use archinstall. The second is in large part up to you, but pacman + AUR are amazing.

One of the main reasons I stuck with YouTube Music is that I find the algorhitms superior to spotify. Maybe this is placebo, but I think between the 7 mixes + discovery + artist / song radio I always have something that does not feel the same, and I feel like any intentionally searched listening updates the mixes fairly quickly.

He asked for four, two main and two backup. Of those one backup was non-functioning and the other was supposedly possibly by him to carry the money.

He asked for two sets specifically to imply a hostage might be jumping with him, to negate the option of parachute tampering.

So did you even read or just copy articles where the title agrees with you? The first one is “according to google”. The only article i saw crop up on google use the term derogatory(as per the article) to describe woo-woo was on medium, talking about how it makes people who believe in the supersticious and paranormal feel bad (much like the second article you linked). If you actually read them, you would see there is only one negative implication in the first article, and it is not in the origins of the word but in the “message” of “western superiority”, because god forbid we actually ask people to back up their claims.

Where is the racist connection then? Maybe just look up the origins of the word on the dictionary and admit you are spouting bullshit?

Source or gtfo

What koolaid are you sipping? Woo-woo, even in the dictionaries is supposed to refer to sci-fi / ghost sounds. Give me one decent quote to say woo-woo is racist.

Why are you still going on about this, it is so off-topic for the thread it hurts. You have completely deflected and warped the conversation, not even talking the OP, from which this is worlds apart but even from this single comment thread. And yet somehow you are +15 on upvotes despite this sort of behaviour being the reason this thread even exists.

Not brigading my ass.

This is why noone wants to interact with hexbear outside of your instance, this is why world got rid of you, this is why I block every single hexbear comm the second i see it in all and why I hope to god ml will have this conversation as well.
