    The Free Will Thread

    I think it's bullshit, or at least my brain decided I would type that. We have free will. And Aldarion is right, without it, morality and our justice system can't function properly. Many laws specifically require intent. If you can't possess intent because it's not under your control...

    I'd be fine with picture 3. Not there yet. He's bigger than me though. Similar position as Warmuth I figure. Also I can lift more than many of the guys at work that weigh 230+, and keep at it for hours. Few guys were calling me mouse a bit ago. It didn't stick, but the reference was mighty...

    Weight Loss Thread

    I assure you I'm not. I wish I had definition at 200. I was talking to my friends about taking my diet more seriously at 230+ and my idea was to eventually get to 200 lb and 10% bf, but I underestimated just how long that would take, by a LOT.

    6' 160 lb. My goal when I started at 235 was to see my abs. It hasn't changed. I hoped to see them at 170, so my diet shifted around 180 to be much less extreme, and I've been inching down, but they're still not visible. I can see everything else, so I want to complete the package. I'm...

    Weight Loss Thread

    I'd have to amp my calories a lot to make sure my lifting is doing anything. I don't want to waste my time. If I'm going to lift I'm going to shift my diet and really make it count. I'm still targeting fat burn over muscle gain right now, but I'm considering a change of pace if I don't get...

    At the height of my weight loss back in November/December, I was eating basically the exact same thing every day. Cottage Cheese+Pineapples in the morning (3/4 cup), Chicken/Feta/Spinach Pita Sandwich with Broccoli for lunch, and some Greek Vanilla Yogurt (1/2 cup) at night. I prioritized...

    That's what I'm saying. I need to lift. I don't add weights. I just add sets. I can't exhaust myself before work. I could try lifting before I go to bed, but I've read a few articles encouraging morning workouts.

    I'm involved in a war with a 3 part alliance against myself and my ally. They're stronger, but as soon as I started playing offense rather than defense they stopped working together. They are 5+4+2k armies, and could decimate my 6+3k combination (4+1k at the beginning of the war), but they...

    Weight Loss Thread

    Probably. I didn't used to think I was, but I have gotten quite slim. I may be slightly between ecto and meso, but I don't know. I just have less core muscle than I thought I did. I can do hanging sit-ups, pull-ups, etc. but when you're not moving a lot of weight you have to do a lot of...

    Stellaris

    The Federation leader can build "Federation" ships using the tech of each member combined, but the fleet created by this method swaps possession to whomever gains the lead of the Federation. It's pretty cool, but the AI doesn't use it. I'd say right now the AI is too bad to really work with...

    I eat a lot of broccoli and spinach. I'm trying to mix it up a little, not because I'm tired of either, but because I figure I should have a slightly more varied/balanced diet.

    Weight Loss Thread

    Yea, mine don't show. I'm trying to get to where I can see them, but my abs and buttocks still have a bit of sway. I suspect at least half of the body fat I have left is there. I added (roughly) because bf% measurements are all different. Some measurements might still have me around 10%...

    You don't, afaik. They'll get there. They have that kind of thing in many of their other games. Naselus is planning to do a total overhaul mod called Relativity. He's laying out what his plans are, and has already released the early stages of it, but it's got a lot of jagged edges atm...

    chocolate chip cookies are evil. Finally got under 7% bf (roughly), but man, my psychological understanding of what a portion size is has been lagging behind what I should be eating. I ought to count calories better than I do, but I wing it pretty much everytime and just go ham working out to...

    wormholes are totally fucking OP, or rather, everything else sucks. I think path control should be more strongly enforced by fortresses and the such, and fortresses should be more economically viable to distribute for different purposes. As it is there is little difference between the...

    Stellaris

    It needs to be optimized better for late game performance and needs to streamline its micromanagement handling features like sectors and fleet construction. 3/5 atm. It's a good game, but they can do better, and I expect them to. CK2 released much more wobbly than this, and it's amazing now.

    Yea, you actually spoke to someone who can tie his shoelaces without help and it was basically painless. That's the best. I can't stand how stupid a lot of car salesman are. The quality of their customers is generally about even though. I had some random conversations with other customers...

    Yea, I would like a "campaign" with a fictional historical setting, but I'm willing to give Paradox the benefit of the doubt atm. They've blended making large and small entities relevant for a few years now in a way no one else has come close to. I don't think we'll need asymmetric starting...

    Yea, HoI4's development has a huge focus on attracting at least the EU/CK audience to the game, if not more. I hope they update Rome this decade. I'm super hyped for Stellaris. I don't know what made them decide to go for a space game, but I speculate it's Gal Civ 3 being very weak...

    WoW Vanilla Emu - Emerald Dream

    I sure as shit didn't enjoy the terrible GY placement in vanilla on top of Nostalrius's lightning fast overworld respawn rates. It made it brutal to solo some high mob density areas, and occasionally you just couldn't get anyone to roll with. That's why I'd go out of my way to help people that...

    WoW Vanilla Emu - Emerald Dream

    Yea, vanilla is a hardcore trash fest throughout. So many dungeons are just wading through packs of mobs. And with tards that are used to the legit wow AE-everything strategy too. So I had to wade through people to find CC happy people that don't rain of fire before the pull has even reached...

    WoW Vanilla Emu - Emerald Dream

    Well I enjoyed my time there. There were definitely many bugs and inconsistencies with vanilla, but I'd do it again. The worst part is it coming to an end. Blizzard should do it themselves and/or license groups like the Nostalrius team to do it for them.

    allegedly airfare is dropping due in part to lower fuel prices, but jet fuel was already lower than average a bit ago, so it's not a dramatic shift in most cases. I don't have time to travel, and don't care to verify, but I read it was a thing.
