I knew they were messing with the air pressure gauges with my tires, but to mess with my brakes, that's unacceptable. I figured I'd wait them out then go to local service areas, but I need to bring this to their attention about my brakes and schedule my final contract maintenance. After this, I will just stop going there. They don't have to know I'm going somewhere else. That's good; sucks you had that contract. And yeah, find another place.

NocteSpiritus Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 That I shoulda backed up my tumblr blog when I should have. I don't know why, but the one that I had built and worked on for the better part of a year had been terminated for reasons yet unknown to me.

Trene4000 Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I find it hilarious that the beer commercials show people doing elaborate dance routines, breathing fire, and celebrating. Yet, the performers can not drink the beers they are advertising while they are making the commercials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it that much of a blur? My god. Everything is so weird. You probably just have a better grasp of how much you remember and feel like its bad / odd. Almost everyone's memory is piss poor compared to what they THINK their memory is. 90% (reasonably clear) memories from age 5 to current is probably about all any of us get. You just are probably much more self-aware than others. From a study on memory I found: "In the 2-8 year range [participants] forgot 16% to 94% of new information. The obvious conclusion here is that learning varies widely (and wildly) and cannot be predetermined (except perhaps by deities, of whom, I think, we have not even a few in the field of memory/learning psychology). To be specific, when we hear statements like, “People will forget 60% of what they learned within 7 days,” we should ignore such advice and instead reflect on our own superiority and good looks until we are decidedly pleased with ourselves."

Troy Spiral (13) Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 This is going to be another sleepless night working on the newest video. Its grueling but strangely it makes me feel mostly pretty good. In about 12 hours when my eyes are bleeding I'll have a different take on it but that is only the last 3-4 hours which is in a sense more important than any other time. I can make a video but if no one sees it it defeats the purpose. A rule of thumb is 20% of the total time/resources it took to make a video should be spent (in addition) on "marketing" (in my case that just means sharing, asking for help sharing or liking and optimizing for the Youtube algorithm (a real headache)) which I tend to skimp on as I have some idiotic idea that people should be mind readers and just find me or help without me having to ask. That is a huge error. What i should do is get the people that (might) complain that I'm "spamming" them out of my head. One, I will remember who they are and be very unlikely to bother them again... like ever. Two if I don't do my best to try and promote a whole lot of people that might have had even a minor interest in things I'm making or trying to make will never see them just due to my concern over rubbing someone the wrong way. I'm also just scared I'll have to stop. I really hope that doesn't happen. Motivation wise I'm in this YouTube thing for life in whatever form that takes. (or at least like 10 years) only brass-tacks problems with the reality of what you need to make (decent) videos would stop me. I am all-in on this. Its a good feeling honestly. It really does feel like a positive "mission" that gives me direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TronRP Posted March 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I wonder how the boy is going to feel being in his first non-contact tournament. He always thinks he's the best at everything, but he is going from Football mentality to Chess strategy. I'm not sure he will be ready for the amount of mental prowess that's necessary for the stamina needed in this form of competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TronRP Posted March 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Dang it! The boy just woke up and we will be leaving in just about an hour. I told him yesterday to treat today the same as a weekday...i.e. up by 5am. Whatever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kills youtube. But you can double duty that live stream via both YT and Twitch at the same time (and after it ends you'll have a video on YT) but that is pretty involved to set up. What the big kids do is live stream on twitch and then make "highlight videos" from that stream and post them to youtube. When you spend so much time making something you want to give it the maximum chance for people to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a good practice though to keep the sleep schedule the same across the whole week. Goes for all of us unless we have something special to do. You know... going to the club, binge watching my little pony... the usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat (1) Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) I know I'm not normal by any stretch but is it extra weird that I'm excited that in less than 2 weeks my thirties are done? I am actually happy about this. I am a straight up weirdo I suppose. My thirties sucked through. Time for something new. Maybe I just love the look on someone's face when I say my age.

TronRP Posted March 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 These pass out nights have gotten me back onto a morning schedule, but it's rather unsettling to know that if I stop moving around 9 or 10pm, I will not be awake again until sometime around 4:30 - 5am. I'm going to chopped this up to recuperating from Sunday's 13 hour marathon day of Chess at Oakland Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
