Is it dumb to spend $1,500 on a TV now days? I have a 7 year old 37" Samsung that has started to go out. I was looking at replacements and I am thinking a 65" is about the largest I can have in the room. 70" is probably too large for the viewing distance in our living room. I went to...

I really enjoyed this movie. Not sure I would go see it again in theaters, but I didn't feel like I wasted my 3D money. The 3D specifically seemed well done. It wasn't distracting, but it did take away a bit from the fast paced scenes.

I agree with the tastes nice part. Making a shake with cream / protein / raspberries is a pretty great ice cream replacement while low carbing. The other nice thing about the shake is that it is liquid. If you are like me and have trouble with solid food after a tough workout it really hits...

But did it give you an Xtreme workout and / or massive pumps? Inquiring minds want to know. I use Labrada and it is about 50 / 50 for me. It is most useful on days I don't feel like going to the gym, seems to tip the scales in my favor.

This is specifically why Keto worked so well for me. Sure you have to give up sweets, pasta, and bread (among other things), but eating really fatty food feels good. Once you drop sugar for a while, if the cravings don't go away, they are usually deadened. Even if you do get a craving for...

I like how they released this movie to cable, etc. Cost less than the price of a theater ticket. Just popped it on randomly because why not. I really enjoyed the movie. Good pacing and about the right length. It was shot well with lots of interesting scene changes throughout the train cars.

Approximately 5'9"

I decided to make an appointment at the U of MN to use the BodPod they have in the Rec Center to measure my body fat. They actually have a pretty good deal right now where for a group of 5 it is $50. I estimated by body fat % with calipers (22%) and visually (25 - 30%) before going. I figured...

How do you eat that much post work out? When I am done, I can barely convince my body to have more than water and some hard boiled eggs or peanut butter. I have near zero interest in solid food after 2 hours of class. It isn't because I don't think I need it, my body just starts feeling...

I finally achieved my first goal over this weekend. I weighed in at 199.8 this morning. That makes for a total of 83 lbs lost in one day under a year. Overall changes are 42 > 36 inch waist and going from XXL > L shirt. I was somewhat worried I would hit goal by the year marker as I injured...

Olive Oil / Olives? What are you using it for?

Yeah, I am curious what happens to Nazi Zombie Mountain next season. Maybe they just said the procedure would 'alter' him so he could be recast again :P.

Getting pretty close to goal but I may have derailed my train yesterday. I was rolling with one of the guys at the gym and while attempting to escape side control I felt something...pop?snap? Almost like a rubber band being stretched and released at my lower left rib cage. The pain and...

Guilty as charged, except now I add protein powder as well. 4lbs to goal son!

Maybe it is just an elaborate subterfuge where they expect Ser Barristan (or someone else) to be a spy. So they send Jorah away, he makes his move, and then Jorah comes back and was like "I have been here all along!". Then again, maybe not.

This was my thought as well. Trying to look more like her mother to keep Baelish fiending.

I am sure it will not happen (because it is what I want again), but I was assuming The Mountain will die and present an out for Tyrion. Caught in some sort of guilty/not guilty limbo because both champions die. Also, I feel like Baelish should have some in store for the Frey folks. If they...

I never get what I want.

Yeah, pastries in general and / or bread is where I fail. I was on vacation a couple weeks ago and was going to try to stay true to my diet except for my actual anniversary. That was thrown to the wayside the first morning in the face of continental breakfast croissants and danish. They were...

Saw the movie yesterday and enjoyed it. Quicksilver's scene was definitely the best. I don't think they could have done it any better. Also, save the cheerleader, save the world.

The Arya / Hound interaction is one of the story arcs that I enjoy watching the most. I wish it had a bit more screen time. The Hound going from a bastard to a sympathetic character, yet still a bastard is a good shift. Peter Dinklage should just get more awards thrown at him. I am...

I would have to rewatch the teasers for this season but I am pretty sure there is a duel between Oberon and The Mountain. I figured he would do the honors shortly after Tyrion's trial is over as promised by Tywin.

Over the weekend I reached the home stretch for my first goal. I weighed in at 210, 73 lbs lost, 11 more to go. The end of June is going to be 12 months in total. I am not sure I am going to hit goal by that time, but I will be close. I am going on vacation next week for my anniversary and...

I would second GNS3. I would also second brain dumps. I used to look down on brain dumps, but then I realized some of the questions are just silly / ambiguous and screw failing a test because of stupid random crap. Now, this was 6 years ago so the test material may be more relevant to...

In terms of sweeteners, I switched over to Stevia (Truvia) when I started doing Keto. It took a little while to get used to as it was a slightly different type of sweet from Sweet and Low / Splenda. Now that I am used to it, the former sweeteners taste 'chemically'. I have never been kicked...

I have been noticing that as well. I would and live around Minneapolis. For the last week Ingress has had trouble locking on and keeping my position updated. I just assumed it was my phone. I did find that when I removed the Cisco / Meraki Systems Manager client from my phone it helped it...

I still use OWE, but it can't be counting for more than 150 - 200 of my overall resists. Most of the gear / legs that I have been finding have resist all in some form and they aren't close enough to ideal to reforge. After trying to milk some more DPS my resists hover around 1000. I don't...

I am curious how long it is going to take Arya to become a bad ass. I don't think that is really a one season thing, but maybe she will call on her valar morghulis friend to get this party started. I would prefer for Joffrey to get Arya'd / Oberyn'd post haste. I just dislike that little...

This had me confused for an episode or two. I thought it was just the same person different incarnation.

It is also reportedly combat time, if that helps it make more sense. Overall, I can pretty much count on a Legendary every 90 minutes. Getting a Forgotten Soul seems to reset the timer for me. There has only been one instance where I have gotten a Legendary more than +/-10 minutes from the 90...

Cashews are a bad example for carbs in nuts. Almonds, pecans, and sunflower seeds are the staple nuts that I usually eat. They are much lower in effective carbs.

When going through Keto Flu I have found chicken bullion helps quite a bit. I treat it just like I have a cold because that is what it feels like. Drink lots of fluids, etc. Have you been through it before? Some folks get lucky and it isn't as bad. Others I am sure are the opposite...

I am not sure how it compares in the grand scheme of Amulet's for a monk, but I got a good drop yesterday. There is some debate on what to reforge or if I should just wait for a more permanent Amulet. I am not exactly swimming in forgotten souls. Ehlo - Community - Diablo III Golden...

Thanks for the video. I am still in the weight dropping phase of my diet. I went from 283 > 214 lbs in the past 9 months so it matches up. I had planned on getting to 199 and then letting things slow down a bit. My long term goal is to get into 170 - 180 range. I am expecting the 199 > 180...

This is where things get confusing to me. I get that the fat intake on a daily basis is high. Let's ignore the fact that it is all from butter for now, I will get that corrected. However, isn't that the entire point of Keto diets? All of the internet reading and calculators, etc. recommend...

It wasn't so much a keto guideline, more the Bulletproof Coffee as a primary base. It was just easier to call it keto as it was more likely to have been heard of. I will do some reading / drop the butter. Back to the drawing board!

I told my doctor I was doing a Ketogenic diet. I didn't outright tell him I was drinking 5 tablespoons of butter as my breakfast / lunch. I was doing myfitnesspal for the past couple of weeks, should be visible. Ubiquitrips's Food Diary | MyFitnessPal.com The week of 3/16 - 3/22 is...

Maybe it was this? It is old (4/2013), but I thought multi-player increased magic find in general some how. Multiplayer Bonuses Many players have already figured out that if you coordinate well with your party, you're more efficient. That's definitely true, but we'd like this benefit to be...

I was hopping the multi-player buff applied. The buff you get to magic find, etc. when you are running around as a group. Two stacks for two people, etc. I think?

I was able to get up to level 70 yesterday, kill Malthael, and start some bounties. I definitely had to switch down from Master around level 67ish on my Monk. It was taking me too long to kill stuff and just was not fun. I arrived at Malthael at level 68 and decided to go grind out the last...
