    I'm open to opposing research. Seriously. But regardless of Taubes' behavior and views, none of these guys has addressed the giant elephant in the room. Five decades of telling people to count calories, reduce fats, eat more whole wheat and grains, and limit protein has led to a worldwide...

    You can keep being a disingenuous cunt about how this argument went all you want, it is clear to anyone reading this thread what happened. If you don't want to have the conversation, stop fucking replying. No one will be sad.

    Weight Loss Thread

    I think the discussion worth having is how much genetics contributes to your ability to process carbs and whether or not insulin resistance is the real culprit behind the health epidemic that is ongoing. Research is coming out that children of diabetic mothers are much more likely to be diabetic...

    Says it is impossible to have a discussion because people are too invested in their viewpoint, then refuses to discuss the issue maturely because he is too invested in his own viewpoint. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You're a hypocritical asshole. I tried to have a discussion in good faith and your answer was...

    Whelp, you got me. Pictures of one dude who eats like shit, has great abs, and whose only job is to look good is certainly the kryptonite to all arguments against sugar. You sure are good at this. Have fun eating like shit while you bulk and then returning to a low carb maintenance diet when...

    Oh, so you're going to be a dick about it now? Okay, we can do that. How about you show me any evidence that excess fat or protein causes insulin resistance? No? Okay, give me any study that shows better overall health outcomes for a diet high in carbs and sugar vs a low carb one. I'll...

    Gary gets shit on a lot because people misrepresent his views. Also, he doesn't do himself any favors by saying CICO is bogus in interviews and in print, when in his longer discussions he talks about it being not the whole picture. He definitely has a very rigorous attitude towards research...

    I agree with you about blaming carbs for all our problems is silly. I'm 36 years old, spent my late teens and all of my twenties eating whatever the fuck I wanted, and was skinny the whole time. I have great genetics when it comes to diet, apparently. Constant diet experimentation, though, has...

    I'm just lucky that I care way more about the bacon, eggs, and cheese than I do about the biscuit. Biscuits are delicious, but after eating low carb I definitely feel like shit for hours after eating them.

    I agree with that much. It has to work due to the laws of thermodynamics. I'm saying that the way we measure caloric intake and put them on packages and the way we determine how a body burns calories is most likely at least partially incorrect. **EDIT** I'd include that we also don't...

    Investing General Discussion

    What is your suggestion for diversification inside a Vanguard account? As in, do you agree with the idea that you should be into several different index funds or just all in on a single overall US market index fund?

    So what do you guys think of Gary Taubes? I've been doing quite a bit of research on keto and the like, and at this point I'm pretty convinced he has the right of it for the most part. Now, I certainly buy into the premise that everyone is different and so all diets have varying effects on...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    I used to complain mightily about AT&T internet vs Cox here in OKC, but after years of advertising Cox still doesn't have Gigablast available almost anywhere and I am sucking down AT&T's Gigabit fiber for $80/month with no caps.

    Is there a 24 inch version of this monitor? If so, is it as good as the 27? I have a r5 1600 oced to 3.7 and a 1070. I have heard 144hz gaming is the way to go but don't know the first thing about it. I was going to go with 1080p/144hz with my system. Is gsync really worth the extra?

    How interested/experienced are you with overclocking? Also, are you gaming at 1080p/60hz? The combo of R5 1600X and a 1080 Ti 11GB is a bit confusing without more info.

    Did we watch the same movie? This guy was hooked up with the central figure to the largest international doping scandal in history BEFORE the story broke and ended up being an emissary for Grigory to WADA about the whole thing due to the security concerns. Grigory is now in US federal witness...

    So you're saying that this was all planned and staged by the US government and that the whole movie is a anti-Russian propaganda piece. Interesting take.

    I saw it in 3D and didn't mind it at all. I'm not a person that totally hates 3D, though, when it is used specifically to add depth to scenes and not as some stupid gimmick. If you just dislike all but the best 3D movies then you should probably pass on this one.

    The fake injuries to stop tempo is fucking bullshit. They need to change the rules to say any player that is injured enough to need a timeout has to stay on the sidelines until the next change of possession. Would stop that shit in its tracks.
