    You're exactly right. And I'm pretty confident it's undeactivated glutes. I described this a bit more in detail a couple days ago, but I did a bunch of glute activation exercises before my last workout and my squats felt a lot better. I'm pretty excited to hit them again in tomorrow's workout...

    Funny you mention that. I was at a buddy's for a BBQ on Saturday and there was a neighbor wandering around his property. He sauntered up and told us he saw big foot last night. The guy was clearly not all there. Mid 50s, had no teeth, a vacant look in his eyes. Besides that he had two striking...

    State Of Decay 2 - May 22nd Release

    I haven't really looked into SoD2, but I hope they added a bunch of mechanics to control your party while you're off killing shit. Something like State of Decay + Rebuild/They Are Billions/Fallout Shelter That way you go to your base, tell a crew to head out to scout an area for 15-60 minutes...

    Cool. I keep on with my current setup. Why do you say having different caloric intake on rest vs active days is useless? I have no idea, just trying to learn.

    I'm not sure why but I loved State of Decay and couldn't get into Dying Light. I think I just didn't like the combat or something didn't click for me.

    Just finished a desk that I ran into a design issue about a year ago and got too frustrated to continue, but redesigned last month. Nice to get out from under a project that haunted me so I can move on to screwing other projects up.

    So it's been a month of my weight lifting program and I'm pretty happy with it. I've been doing Phrak's Greyskull LP Variant, which is pretty simple. I've tried a few different things to add more volume to it, but have settled on just doing 3x10 on lifts that match my three main lifts...

    Yes. Not only because the stars saturate the image sensor of the camera (so the stars themselves look bigger) but also because we're seeing a 3d galaxy projected in 2d. So even stars that would appear extremely close could be separated by a massive distance in the camera's axis of depth. I was...

    No idea. Is Dying Light p2p or is it client-server?

    State Of Decay 2 - May 22nd Release

    quote from the SoD reddit which makes sense. It's probably like this: Time to add code to do tethered coop: 1 month Time to add code for untethered coop: 5 months and total change of multiplayer architecture to be server-client vs p2p.

    State Of Decay 2 - May 22nd Release

    Yeah the tethering is a head scratcher. The idea of teaming up with a few people and independently surviving with the same base but being able to tag-team a tough zombie horde is a well-proven gameplay design. I wonder if that was their goal and they weren't able to implement it for p2p...

    To me, an orbital ring is like the American pioneers looking at the frontier and saying, "It sure is hard to cross from the colonies to Oregon territory. I KNOW! let's build an massive metropolis that spawns all the way from the east coast to the west coast, and just take the public hyperloop!"...

    State Of Decay 2 - May 22nd Release

    Really looking forward to release! It plays nothing like GTA V, and really the comparison only makes sense in that they both went for realistic graphics (vs cartoony) and have driving/weapons. The original game is a lot more driving + stealth scavanging + melee than the trailer shows. Weapons...

    What's the estimate for how much $$$ it would take in today's technology to create an orbital ring? And how does an orbital ring allow us to bring an asteroid from the asteroid belt to Earth's orbit?

    @BrutulTM I've pumped asteroid mining a lot in this thread, and there really is a huge upside to it for both on-planet industry and off-planet. It really is the real pathway we have to get off this rock. But until we make real strides in propulsion tech it's going to be really hard to go...

    No way someone with that schedule doesn't feel exhausted 100% of the time. If I had to work + school I'd immediately cut back exercise to like 2hrs a week instead of 10+.

    I don't have the same anxiety issues, but when not exercising regularly I feel way better in general on keto than off of it. However, as you get more comfortable with exercising regularly you may want to try mixing up your diet a bit and see how it goes.
