The US is a two party system, it will not work with 3 or more parties, so Progressives need to work within that system.
As of right now with the current state of the two parties Progressives MUST vote Democrat. As a result Progressives need to put 1 strong progressive candidate in all Democratic primaries, ideally to win but also to shift the conversation leftwards.
As for Republican candidates, they need to be attacked from the left on popular issues (such as childcare) to push the Orton window leftwards.
Hello everyone! These terms may be unique to my world, so I'll try and describe them as clearly as possible:
Push Marketing - strategies and activities in the marketing realm focused on getting the consumer to buy the product as soon as possible by utilizing deals/coupons, "Buy Now" buttons, and adding creating a sense of limited supply
Pull Marketing - strategies and activities in the marketing realm focused on giving the consumer reasons to connect with the business & build a relationship by engaging with consumers, giving away products, and telling the story of their businesses
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been watching the marketing strategies of both large corporations and small businesses and have noticed what seems to be a shift from Push Marketing to Pull Marketing. This seems to me like going back to when the majority of businesses were family-owned and knew their customers by name when they walked in the door.
This Pull Marketing model seems to reflect a transition from profits and "making the sale" to a focus on brand and building relationships with the consumer.
I'm curious what your thoughts are on this observation.
Is this going to be a long term focus? What do you expect to see from both large corporations and small businesses?
Could this mean a switch from low customer-acquisition costs for a large number of consumers who buy low-value products and have low retention rates to...
... a focus on high customer-acquisition costs (from free gifts and the time spent on B2C engagement) that buy high-value products with high rates of retention?
What comes to mind when you read all of this? Do you prefer Push or Pull Marketing?
I'd love to talk about what this could mean for the marketing world or if you disagree with this idea entirely!
Let's see what we come up with!
Right now, I have 8 Linux machines that I backup weekly. I have two sets of backups for each machine:
- A script runs weekly on each machine that generates a tar.gz of specific directories I want to keep, and stores that tar.gz file on the local server itself. Once a week, my backup server runs a script to rsync those tar.gz files from each of the 8 servers, to itself.
- Proxmox weekly VM backups
Both #1 and #2 get pushed to the cloud (Backblaze B2). Is #1 a bad strategy? Should I have each server pushing it's own backups directly to B2? Or maybe mount the backup server on each of the 8 servers? Curious how you all do it.
I understand that push-pull (disqualifying/teasing) is for the purpose of getting the girl to chase. My main, very experienced wing has said that you don't need to do push-pull or any specific techniques to get a girl so as long as you have solid/unbreakable inner game. However you're only going to get a girl of a certain level based off of not using certain techniques (i.e. push-pull), because girls always want a man that's of a higher value than they are.
Everytime I implement push/pull I'll say a line like "You're pretty cute & I'm digging this interaction but I'm still figuring you out." Or I'll say "Who are you? You're definitely really cute/attractive but I'm not too sure about you yet." None of these things feel natural at all. I sometimes say shit like "You know, when you smile or laugh, your nose wiggles." & I'll say it in a very flirty manner. I don't mind saying that line cuz I genuinely enjoy trolling people & busting people's chops (it's my sense of humor).
I'm a naturally affectionate dude in general (especially with girls who're my type). My wing (& some posts here) have said that's not a good thing & to stop it. It's hard for me to do so since I'm so used to it for one & secondarily, I just don't get enough volume in my city outside of nightgame (I live in a sprawling city, not good for daygame), so whenever I'm on a date with or hooking a girl that's my type it's hard for me to not get really excited. That said, I wanna take action & see results despite living in a not-so-ideal city for game.
Some successful guys have said that they don't use push-pull & they get results. Is their inner game so on-point that they don't need to use it at all & still get results?
I think I might be overthinking this guys but I appreciate any advice on this.
Almost 80-90% of marketing can be classified into 2 tactics: Push & Pull.
Simply put, a push strategy is to push a product at a customer, while a pull strategy pulls a customer towards a product.
A push strategy is a faster way to move a customer from brand awareness to purchase. (this process is often referred to as funneling)
Push is about taking the product to a customer.
Push tactics include:
- Direct selling/face to face sales.
- Designing packaging to encourage purchase.
- Negotiating with retailers to stock your product.
Below is an example of a push strategy:
>Let’s say you’re walking around New Road and enter Samsung’s showroom. Recently, they’ve launched the Samsung Galaxy S20, and are offering a discount on the phone, and are also adding an incentive of a free USB pen drive.
>Showrooms, discounts & incentives are push tactics as they push you to buy a product.
A pull strategy pulls a customer toward a product. It is all about creating an ongoing relationship with the brand.
Pull is about getting the customer to come to you.
Pull tactics include:
- Advertising & mass media promotion
- Word of mouth.
- Sales promotions/Discounts.
An example of a pull strategy would be:
>Let’s say while browsing through Facebook and see an ad for a Bluetooth speaker that has an extraordinary sound quality and is waterproof, on top of that. There were no incentives & discounts, but the product was advertised to you & you approached the buyer to order the product.
This is a close example of a pull tactic.
It is best to keep in mind that any successful strategy will usually have both the elements of push & pull.
When the two are combined, an effective marketing strategy is formed.
>Suppose, you’re watching TV and see an ad for a Samsung Galaxy S20 pops up and you’ve been seeing the ad appear everywhere. You’ve heard & witnessed great reviews of the phone. Then you go to the showroom to test it and find out that along with a discount, an incredible Bluetooth speaker is being given away for free.
The aforementioned offer is more tempting than the ones above. Thus, an effective strategy is formed mixed with push & pull tactics.

I've always been highly skeptical of options considering how manipulated the stock price is, and the fact that the price almost always stays dead center in max pain especially after these options pushes happen on our sub.
Think about it. They push options all day and get everyone hyped about them, then AH they spoke the price to further solidify to those that read about options that now is the time to buy before it skyrockets, then the next day they crash the price back down from AH and fuck everybody who bought short terms in b-hole.
This is why I've been against playing options especially when the sub pushes them, it's any easy way for the opposition to gain some liquidity and cash while fucking over apes.
Buy. DRS. Hodl. It's all that really matters.
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OWn30Z3pkE -- This is really just a demonstration of how things could/should look from one end, and how things shouldn't look from the other end. This isn't for solo players or people who aren't interested in trying.
I give an overview/walkthrough between 0:39 and 7:40 to give an idea of what people should be doing from both positions, then the rest of the video is just showing actual gameplay.
TL:DR Send at least one person mid, and least one person inside doors (you have to pass the door). It's a really tight timing vs people who have a clue, but it works to convincingly win matches.
Grenades are really important. Don't waste grenades, need to have at least one person's grenade up at the start of every round.
A lot of people I run into in comp don't really seem to understand mid control on this map. I don't exactly know how to play this map, but generally teams that get control of mid tend to be the winning team. On some maps one decent player is enough to give the enemy team problems, this doesn't seem to be one of those maps. Feels like it takes the entire team making the same level of effort if the enemy also has all three players running mid.
Round 1
11:42 - This is an even round due to picks at the start. Should probably show why top mid is better, and why outside is not. Enemy player who went mid top had no support, the enemy teammate who was there to help with door ditched (20:21) for some reason even though they knew I was going there. My teammate who went mid had "support," didn't do much but it was still significantly more than enemy team player had. I think they would've won this round if Chief stayed to fight me (e.g. what happened last round of match).
20:23 - A lot of people hate having teammates like this, and a lot of people who say he shouldn't rush mid like this. It looks like stupid blind rushing, but for me personally I try figure out ways to support players like this since I'd rather play with this type of player vs a passive player. They could've won off this push, and I'd probably blame the other two before I blamed this guy. Some people fault the first person to get picked, but in a good amount of cases the last people

But in order to get updated files from my laptop: I push changes to GitHub, then I need to connect to the PI via SSH and git pull the new stuff.
Does anybody know of a better alternative? Maybe something more automated. I'm sure I'm complicating myself here.
Not sure how to describe this question, so it was difficult searching for similar quesitons.
Thanks!
I hope I am wrong here: I expect this post to get lost, downvoted by shills, or generally unpopular, even if I end up being amazing accurate, like my previous posts (see my profile). If you are reading this, count yourself lucky, as many will not.
Shorts are trying to push GME to 155, and DRS is making this much more difficult for them.
In looking at the last three cycles/pops, we start seeing a repeating pattern after each rally, where the price action consolidates lower to a target price point, before it pops again. Luckily, shorts cannot change the long term trend of higher lows. As we draw parallel channels for the tops and bottoms, we start seeing a trend.
The white trend lines illustrate a long-running macro channel I had established months ago, and the price action continues to confirm to this larger high-level trend over months. The red and green trend lines create a channel showing the downward consolidation.

How do we know that DRS is working? The price action is the publicly-accessible data point. If we look at the angles of each of the red trend lines, we can see that the angles since the DRS movement has drastically decreased, from -19° and -28° to -15°. Additionally, the price action volatility, also shown in the Implied Volatility (IV) of options tables, show that GME is becoming less volatile. This means that shorts have less and less ability to control the price action over time.

In looking at the AVWAPs, we have the following supports/proper entries:
- 02/19 AVWAP @ 175.26
- 02/09 AVWAP @ 166.41
- 02/02 AVWAP @ 155.14
- 01/15 AVWAP @ 147.74
Currently, the support is at the 02/19 AVWAP @ 175.26. When we go below this, possibly around 10/07 or 10/08, we may see a rally to the green trend line, that defines the top of the current channel. At that point, shorts will make a renewed effort to push the price back down.
Previously, we've seen the 01/15 AVWAP @ 147.74 touched by the price action on 04/13 05/11 08/04. However, due to the higher lows, shorts can no longer push the price levels down to this price level. As shown by the price action on 08/19, the 02/02 AVWAP @ 155.14 is the lowest they can push.

I was wondering if it’s possible to achieve a look like that with bodyweight excercises, and I mean without performing them weighted but just bodyweight, more like a prison workout. https://i.imgur.com/gN4x7mr.jpg
Of course in this particular case, a clean diet is essential, I’m aware of that.
All in all, he seems to have a pretty good chest, decent arms and possibly a lagging back, so my main doubt is that dips and push ups can give you that kind of chest.
I was thinking of something like that:
Chest: push ups (incline, wide, ring pushups), dips, ring flies
Back: pull ups (regular, neutral, wide, chin ups, narrow chin ups), rows (regular rows, wide rows, ring rows)
Shoulders: already working with pull ups, push ups and dips. Maybe lateral raises and facepulls
Arms: already working with chest and back excercises. Maybe ring curls and diamond push ups once a week
Legs: squats, deadlifts, pistol squats
Abs: various excercises
I don’t want to be any bigger than that. Do you think it’s possible or should I add weighted stuff, maybe only as regards chest?
Is it possible to get a Vertical GPU Bracket that will still fit into the O11 Dynamic XL if I have an EK-CoolStream XE 360 Running in Push - Pull
I have a picture of this being possibly done but cant tell if that is and XE or PE on the bottom.
ujb1pouou7981.jpg (4080×3072) (redd.it)
If anyone can tell me if this is possible and if so what vertical bracket
Sorry if this question has been asked before but I cant find a definitive answer
I can't tell if this is a me being problem or some sort of sick joke that Tim Robinson had planned
My new cpu cooler has 2 fans and I was wondering if I should run it with a pull/pull configuration or a push/pull config?
At least for GME, i think they have learned their lessons from the Jan 2021 gamma squeeze. They can no longer rely on the traditional hedging strategy of staying delta neutral when writing options. Because of all their open short positions, it’s expensive for them to stay delta neutral because of the buying pressure it adds to the share price that directly increases their margin costs for their open short positions (at least for MMs that are in cahoots with short hedgies).
Pushing the price to max pain allows them to keep most of the option premiums and at the moment it looks like it’s profitable for them. Meaning, the cost of pushing the price to max pain (i.e via additional shorting) is less than the premiums that they get from options traders. Specially during times when IV is high which means premiums are also higher. Or at the very least, this strategy is making them bleed less money to delay MOASS as long as they can.
I have been training calisthenics for this past year, with a few month long breaks because of other activities taking priority. I have done the recommended routine for a while, but I'm looking to change it up because I'm focusing mostly on hypertrophy and reps now. I was wondering if this push pull legs routine would likely be effective for hypertrophy.
Push:
Ring push ups
Overhead press
Dips
Tricep extensions
Pull:
Pull ups
Archer rows
Chin ups
Bicep curls
Legs:
Pistol squat progression
Walking lunges
Nordic hamstring curls
In order to increase my endurance as well, I was thinking of making the second half of the week focused on slightly easier progressions and higher reps, an idea I got from the Red Delta Project. Let me know how I should change my potential routine. Thanks.
