Whoop Movie
Regulo Akers
A: It's funny you ask that. About two-and-a-half months ago, I was, unfortunately, pulled over by a state trooper coming down I-75. When he got to the window, he immediately told me that I'd done nothing wrong, he just had to pull me over to ask, finally, what "whoop whoop" means.
It's like when I was in the Marines; we had "ooh rah." We would say "ooh rah" when something turned out good or we had a good mission. "Whoop whoop" is the same way. It's an easy thing to say, it's fun to say, and it can mean everything or nothing. And it sounds just the same, whether you're drunk or sober. And even sometimes when you're sad, you can say, like, "Whoop whoop, man."
Most people use it as a form of farewell. You're like, "Whoop whoop, ninja." Like, "Catch you later." Or like a greeting. At the Gathering of the Juggalos, even old-school Juggalos at the end of the day almost dread that, because you can't go 10 feet without saying "whoop whoop" 20 times because there's so many people at the Gathering that every few steps you're seeing a new person, so you gotta give them a "whoop whoop." And, oh, you can't leave this brother out, so you gotta say "whoop whoop" to him. And then, this sister, you gotta say "whoop whoop" to her too. And you're whooped out by the end of the day.Will Sigler is a 36-year-old Juggalo, former Marine, and longtime ICP fan who works at Psychopathic Records. Send your questions to [email protected].
Help! I disabled my connected between my Whoop and Strava because whoop was creating a duplicate post from my strava activity. Even though disabled as a strava integration, whoop is still pushing to my strava activity timeline. Has anyone else had this problem or figured out how to trouble shoot it?
Thanks!
Here are the steps from the Whoop website:If you'd like to disable automatic uploads, open the menu in the WHOOP app and navigate to move "Integrations > Strava" and ensure the "Share Activity" toggle is OFF.
Is there a way to have specific activities NOT duplicate from Whoop to Strava? I would still like my workouts and Hockey activities to show up on strava, but NOT my cycling activities as they would be duplicated. (*distance, duration...etc.)
For a long time I have been looking for a small cheap development drone. A few months Back I saw another blog post about about someone who had managed to make a tiny whoop run Ardupilot. From the moment I saw the post and the associated video I knew I wanted one of my own.
BTW, I could not find an RC receiver in the parts list.
So you intend to use a joystick via telemetry radio for manual control like stabilize mode?
If so, how do you connect the smartphone, joystick and telemetry radio (ground side)?
I am not using a dedicated RC receiver. to save weight I decided to use the mavlink joystick function in QGC. I purchased a micro usb to usb c cable which allowed me to plug in the sik radio to the phone. From there I bluetoothed the xbox one controller to the phone and setup up the joystick in the QGC android app. You can also do a similar setup with a laptop too.
My current belief is that, probably, for saving some weight you will get better result with conventional RC using tiny efficient chips like ELRS, and with some scripting enabled to start missions from an RC.
I have been looking at potentially doing another arduwhoop build specifically for indoor use. I was thinking that for telemetry I would use one of the tiny esp32s in substitution for the sik radio since wifi should be good enough for indoor.
Humans crave patterns. The reason pop music is successful to begin with is because almost every song is immediately familiar before you get more than 10 seconds into a first listen. Between the formula of European classical scales and chord progressions that have gelled over hundreds of years and the driving heartbeat rhythms that stimulate our internal organs at the right decibels, listeners are immediately hooked in by familiar structure and themes that have likely been ringing in their ears since they were in the womb. And with the pervasive nature of pop music, where everything is a remix, a feedback loop has been created in which songs are successful because they are familiar, so in order to be successful, songs are created that play on our sense of familiarity.
just had this thought, that since leaving out the 4th is giving the millennial whoop some kind of pentatonic feel, it might also be some pseudo native american thing. like wearing headdress to Coachella, something very millennial as well.
