It really depends on what you want to do. If you’re trying to build muscle, lifting weights and a little bit of cardio will make you strong and feel just generally better (less mental fog, have more energy, etc). You can generally get a good deal of the benefits if you’re just starting out at home, provided you are actually being consistent with your workouts. Workout clothes are much more comfortable than just wearing a pair of jeans and working out, plus they won’t chafe if you get them wet from your sweat. A lot of the reason I have a gym membership is that it provides an incentive to actually get my money’s worth by going to the gym (I am rather cheap), thus I’m less likely to not workout. I think we all remember how awful gym time at school was, but a paid for gym is a much better environment, as you can go take a shower after rather than having to be sweaty in your clothes for the rest of the day, or even just working out at home with the opportunity to shower after sweating.
Book club or maybe even some sort of 3d printing meetup? I’ve always found that the people that are interested in those probably would hit the other items on your list.
Not noisy enough.
I mean, wasn’t it mostly spam anyway?
Excellent read, this isn’t a post you should just up vote blindly, read it first.
Yeah, but it has its use. I make tofu nuggets with mine almost exclusively, can’t really do it with a normal convection oven in my experience.
Appliance-wise at least.
Think it was something about being bought out by private equity, and being run into the ground. I’ve loved all of the instant pots I’ve owned, only have had more than one because I needed a bigger one.
Facebook is leaking again.
Don’t forget the inevitable zoomies that preclude the eating of the evil water snake. Seriously, I have to put up my dog every time I wash my car, and she whines the whole time.
Took a couple of secs. Cologne.
Problems arise when you have a dog that would greatly prefer the hose to the peanut butter.
Conclave (2024). Don’t watch too many movies these days, made an exception for this one because it was recommended by a few friends, and it didn’t disappoint. The acting is what makes it stand out, not necessarily the plot (basically a bunch of Cardinals squabbling about who is to be the new pope, with much infighting and backstabbing).
Does depend on your carrier though. AT&T is pretty much off the table, it’s not whitelisted.
The model codes to 2nd and 3rd Gen Intel I series chips. Made figuring out what processors were in used laptops quite easy back in the day. Now I have to Google them (doesn’t help that their naming scheme is more confusing).
More the barefoot shoes, like vivo barefoot and whitin. Just know, if you are doing a ton of walking without conditioning and/or streching, you are gonna get hurt. So the alternative is zero drop shoes, like Altra.
Why, why did you consume the oats?!
Depends on the location. A lot of them just have a cop car in the parking lot, or the cops will eat in late. I wish they paid their staff more, but it’s really hard to beat their prices.
So he’s threatening to tariff China again. Chickening out in three… Two… One …
