    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    I started with keto about 10 months ago, dropped 30lbs, then switched to a standard lifting diet until I stopped lifting, where I switched back to keto, then when I started lifting again recently I switched back to a standard lifting diet. When I stop lifting again I'll probably go back to keto.

    Finished my first week of Phraks GSLP On each day I finished the workout in about 40 minutes, so I tacked on some accessory workouts on the end that were similar to the main workout. On days I benched, I added incline bench. On days I overhead press, I added DB overhead press. On days I squat...

    Relative velocities are a cool thing. Watching slow, detailed movements align the capsule while the earth spins at a billion miles an hour just beneath it is great.

    Cool breakdown on the different rocket versions: Falcon 9’s History Explained – The Specific Design Changes that Led to a Rapidly Reusable Rocket I guess SpaceX has to run the same version 7x times before they can do manned missions, so they're trying to design freeze this Block 5 rocket. But I...

    I dropped keto for a standard high-carb lifting diet and started taking creatine. I feel like a fucking blimp. I gained some 15lbs in 2 weeks.

    I don't know much about rogues and what they can offer utility/dps/adps wise. Right now my group is war/brd/ber/sha/bst/rng. What do you think would be best to replace with a Rogue?

    Got my rack, set it up last night and did a squat / bench press / pullup work out, I really liked it! I ended up getting https://www.amazon.com/Valor-Fitness-BD-7-Power-Attachment/dp/B002EJC990

    rofl. This is like an america's funniest home videos where a guy is pitching balls to a small boy with a plastic bat. You know the hit to the nuts is coming, it does and it's funny. And then a hawk swoops down out of no where and grabs the guy's toupee. In the mean time, I'll take a...

    EQ devs are so underfunded that I wouldn't want them to even try that. There are a few things they can do to improve boxing without specifically making tools for it though. Ex: improving /follow and improving the way abilities / discs / socials fire.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    fucking morons, lol. Nobody bought that shit. But huge numbers of people didn't buy the game because of the real cash fuckery and they aren't buying it now. If they want to do MTX, they need to go MTX free, virtue signal about being MTX free, build up a community for the game, and then add MTX...

    RIP. Besides the operator ignoring the autopilot warnings, I wonder what caused the autopilot failure in the first place.

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    I enjoyed skyrim with a vorpx when the Rift came out, but I thought the textures were too low res and the melee combat was too uhh, up close. I can definitely seeing Skyrim VR being an absolute dream for an archery and magic character though.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    What, in your opinion, is the most impressive example of these ancient structures that would necessitate a power greater than ancient humans to manage? Would you say it's carving out these blocks, transporting them, raising them or setting them?

    I'm kind of disappointed that it doesn't seem like he's done much more in the last ten years. I was hoping that he'd remake stonehenge, complete with bridged concrete blocks on top of the upright ones.

    I think for a long time the value in Starlink will be giving access to fast internet to rural areas, not delivering better internet to urban or suburban areas. The big downside to LEO is that the satellites will have their orbits and mechanical parts degrade due to atmospheric drag. So it's...
