Let’s gooooo!

These days there are yo-yos made that will not come back to your hand when you tug on the string. They’re called unresponsive yo-yos and they require a trick called a bind to make them wind back up. Those sorts of yo-yos would spin the longest. But it’s kind of a skill thing, if a beginner uses one they may get a longer spin than on a raider say 30-60 seconds instead of 10-20, but if an expert throws one they can get 5-7minutes of spin time out of it. It’s determined by how hard you throw it, how well you maintain its tilt so that the inner walls of the yo-yo don’t rub on the string and slow it down, and the maintenance of the bearing/response system inside. It can be rather complex but with practice I think most folks could figure it out and have a rather impressive sleeper 😊

Yea I think they retailed for $15-$20… the prices can be rather wild, some yo-yos these days are made out of titanium and go up to $400usd. I had a few made out of aluminum in the past couple years that I sold between $40 and $60, and some wooden ones that I sold for $20. For the most part the prices seem to be dictated by the branding because imo, most of the modern yo-yos I’ve come across all play about the same 😅

It’s quite fun to do, I agree :) did you ever do dizzy baby? You pinch the top of the triangle and swing the yo-yo all the way around, over the top and through the triangle :)

That’s awesome! I love the raider! It’s a great looping yo-yo and it comes with a ball bearing so it spins forever compared to the budget one I used in this video :) I used to have quite a few of them but eventually sold mine because I stopped focusing so much on looping tricks. Any chance yours was a McDonald’s one? I remember a lot of kids got those from there back when the last yo-yo boom happened :)

Liking your own note is retarded.

By greeting and welcoming new Nostr users via #introductions or #grownostr, we build our own welcome algo.

TikTok “rewards” new users with an incredible algorithmic push for their first post to show them the power of the app.

This happens organically here as well. I think it’s increasingly important to welcome new users to help them feel and experience Nostr like we all already do.

Visit the hashtags and greet and zap some new users every now and then 🤙

Lots of posts about founding fathers being young and comparing them to 20-35 year olds today.

Understand most of these guys had private tutors most of their lives, and didn't go to government propaganda school.

What they learned was far more difficult and required far more diligence and accuracy. It was only a few that became the founding fathers. They really don't train kids like this anymore.

ohhh i see yea i was curious cuz i restored a rusty cast iron pan i had lying around and cooked some fire pita bread on it today. cleaned it with vinegar salt and baking soda and it looks ok. is oxidized metal toxic or what?

why are you paranoid about rust?

Privacy is friendzoned.

Privacy is the ability to choose what you want to share, with whom, and when.

What is too much privacy?

Pft. You gotta try more glory holes. Lots of privacy there...privates

My favorite part ♻️⚡️
