  • A lot of people will still parrot the launch criticisms at you and refuse to acknowledge that they pretty well fixed it. The devs overpromised and underdelivered, even now its not quite what they promised. But if they had dropped what the game is now on release it would be pretty universally regarded as one of the best games of all time.

  • IMO owning property for investment only becomes unethical once you are profiting beyond a "good living"

    Property is the safest and largest growth investment that real people can make and the most likely to create generational wealth. Demonising that only advantages the multi-billion dollar conglomerates who have absolutely no ethics.

  • Depends on the local market.

    Assuming you go to a good food truck, my experience with food trucks is GENERALLY that the food quality is as good as a high end restaraunt of the same type (because they only do 2 or 3 things) but with slightly lower prices however its still noticably more expensive than a "pretty good" item from a "pretty good" restaurant.

    Like... your getting a 9/10 for 7/10 prices, but you can get a 5/10 for 5/10 price anywhere.

  • Yeah, they used paid models to do some weird shit who took the job and by hashtagging it, retweeting it and sharing it on Lemmy you just put the PaloAlto logo in front of millions more people...

    Its almost like their plan worked perfectly

  • If anyone wants to talk shit about Checkerboard Vans slip-ons I will throw fuckin hands. I have 3 pairs on the go at all times - around the house, going shopping and going out and have for about 20 years which has nothing on the origins of the design which originated in 1976.

  • I have a hat.

    The hat goes on when I leave the house or leave the office. Putting the hat on triggers me to stop for one second and actually think "Do I have everything I should have?" If I make it out of the house without the hat, I spend a proper minute or two double checking that I have everything because if I can forget the hat, I could forget anything.

  • Ok, you have been fed some bullshit. Anyone who just gives you a "eat X calories" advice without knowing your age, height, gender, etc... is full of shit. Makes me no end of mad when you see "Contains 25% of your daily..." on food packaging. Because a 19yo male rugby playing bricklayer and a 46yo female accountant have vastly different requirements.

    At the core of it, its CICO (Calories in, Calories out)

    https://www.calculator.net/macro-calculator.html Tap your details into that, select a REASONABLE weight loss goal a week, underestimate your exercise, and select the high protein option since you are weight training and want to avoid muscle loss.

    A few eggs on a couple of pieces of wholemeal or multigrain toast, pot of greek yoghurt and a coffee is a perfectly good breakfast and Protein shakes are a great way to get protein in and keep calories reasonable, my lunch at work is 2 scoops of Casein protein and a protein bar. I eat boring and super low cal during the day because I train in the afternoon and want to enjoy my dinner.

    When it comes to adding back in workout calories... both sides are right. "Diet fatigue" is a real thing, and if you want to keep your calorie defecit around a certain number to avoid getting burnt out then yes, you add them back in. Personally I calculated my macros and calories to "mild" weight loss and estimated my exercise as "none" so my training was where I found the larger part of my deficit.

    I could write a very short book on this stuff so if tou have any questions feel free to PM me.

  • Also if you see a livestock truck on the road. Get away from it. Especially if its raining. ESPECIALLY if you are on a motorbike or driving a convertible. Animals dont stop pissing and shitting just because they are on the truck.

    You want your vehicle shotgunned with a pig excrement slurry? Nah didnt think so.

  • Kids

    Jump
  • Even if you arent good at improv "Thats a good question! I'm not sure, we should look that up!" Is an easy go-to.

    Then after shower and get into bed we look up todays questions.

  • Disregarding the conspiracy theories, if he had (for example) 10 staff, kept 7 of them absolutely in the dark and away from anything they could narc on and either had dirt on the other 3 or paid them obscene money to not ask questions... those 3 arent coming forward to say what they knew, they are giving the same story as everyone else "I saw nothing".
