    I always have a strong cell signal here, and it swaps wi-fi pretty seamlessly. I do have an issue with the bluetooth lagging a bit occasionally and dropping my wireless earplugs occasionally, but I assume that's an issue on the earplugs' end. /shrug

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    damn you're extreme. Yea, what else is there for you to do? If you get a few strong ones and hold some high end gyms you can get free coins, and that seems to be the endgame atm.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    Shit like this is why I'm 10x more excited about augmented reality than virtual reality. This game is a bit light, but the potential is amazing. And yea, I spent nearly my entire day off walking around catching pokemon.

    I wouldn't worry about the gym. Your diet is most of the effort. Adhere to a plan and you'll be fine.

    Justified

    Another great quality that set Justified apart. The writer credits include the original author, Elmore Leonard, on every episode, but he died before the series finished, and the book he wrote upon which the show is based only covers events from season one. I'm curious how involved he actually...

    I like my 5x, and Project Fi. I haven't met anyone with a superior set-up in coverage or cost. The 5x isn't a really strong performer as a machine, but I use it for data more than media, and the 6p exists to serve that need. I am curious where the augmented reality/VR tech is going to take...

    Yea, and diet soda is generally 0 calories. The more popularly consumed version of the product is full of sugar.

    Yea, medium fries are like 250-300 cal, and medium soda or coffee is often 200ish as well. Cutting both out over a week will burn 1-2 lbs.

    What's the source of that picture Itz? I thought the lore was that old gods = disorder. The basics of the titan origin story was that in the beginning there was just elemental chaos, and the old gods were somehow akin to that.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Throughout the winter as I engaged in the lifestyle change that enabled my weight loss I plateaued frequently in total weight. One week I literally dropped 10 pounds and kept it off. The week before I lost about 1 pound and the 2 weeks after I lost 2-3 pounds each. My diet was consistent. My...

    WarCraft (2016)

    Movie sucked. Dialogue was stilted and weak, plot was several layers of cliche. Action was alright, and that's what the entire movie should have been. It should have been a film akin to 300 where cinematic action sequences stole the show. This attempt at some kind of epic with a powerful...

    Sounds good man. If you have no cravings then you're likely on a good path. The psychology of the process is critical. Achieve realistic goals, and then set further goals based on the pace you're comfortable with.

    Maybe it's bullshit chaos, but a few friends of mine claim that aspartame is linked to headaches for them. Diet Dr. Pepper has aspartame in it. I've never noticed anything from aspartame. As far as I know it is safe despite its villification, but I actually prefer sucralose anyway, so it's...

    I hope this hasn't been linked yet. This is a TED Talk of research around the development of neurons as adults. A while back it was thought this didn't happen. They say not only does this happen, it happens a lot, and your diet and activity has an effect on how much it happens. You have to...

    Have said they need to remove workers since civ 3. They're terrible. I suspect builders will also be terrible though. Non-military entities of any kind don't deserve a place as controllable map units on the same map as military units, including settlers. Maybe have two unit overlays that...

    I wholeheartedly agree. OJ, especially without pulp, is just sugar water. People say "oh it's juice, it's healthy." Yea, drinking several cups of it removed from the fibrous package it comes in, you're on the way to diabeetus town. Eating fruit has a lot of benefits that don't carry over to...

    Yea, I linked it on my FB. I rarely use FB for anything. This is a move in the right direction. Sugar, at the levels that the average american consumes it, is poison. I've been trying to convince some of my co-workers to drop the soda forever now. They're still fat, and still doing the dew...

    Liquid calories is always step #1. You don't need them. Remove them. A habitual coffee with sugar in the morning and/or red wine at night is not a deal breaker, but they should be considered in the larger scope of things. Soda, sweet tea, energy drinks, etc. throughout the length of the day...

    It's not simply about the mass of fat vs. muscle. Fat has many harmful effects on multiple organs. Your skeleton can support larger muscle mass. The larger issue with lifting is destroying your joint flexibility through use, not because of a larger mass of muscle. Your organs cannot function...

    BMI isn't relevant for bodybuilders. It doesn't distinguish between fat and muscle. Muscle mass and or body fat percentages are much more relevant metrics for determining general health.

    Negative. And you're conflating two issues. 1) You say the results should be the same regardless, so intent isn't relevant. 2) He's saying choice exists even if an object beyond our control them entirely on its own and we only think they're our choices. That's a complete contradiction, and...

    I think you're not getting just how basic the distinction is here. You don't have a choice if they're right. There is no infinite. You didn't choose. You think you did. You think you have the option. You thinking that also isn't an option. It's beyond your grasp. You're just a witness, a...
