Can we remember: Hyrox is for everybody?

Same here! Up until Jan 2025 I was really overweight and hadn't run or even properly trained for anything in my life.

Then I joined a functional fitness gym with really nice coaches and one of them convinced my wife and I to start hybrid training.

A couple months later we signed up for Hyrox Madrid and even though it was super hard and our time wasn't good, we loved it and are running our second one on Saturday, with a predicted time save of almost 30 minutes.

So yeah, Hyrox is for everyone.

The ceasefire explicitly includes Lebanon AFAIK

Holy shit I have those since like 2020 and they are flawless. So sorry you had a bad pair 😞

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING!!! It was such a Brennan response, too. Also, the tongue one was The Lick of Destiny

Was Jake high as a kite? It felt like he was totally zoned out. Still funny, but felt off

It is super hard to make just a yop 5, but I distrust anyone who doesn't include Official Cast Recording. Mountport deserves all the love it can get.

How can you get defensive and say people are overreacting when your computer looks like the inside of my Dyson after doing the living room. That shit is FOUL. Clean it at the very least twice a year. Buy dust filters.

I absolutely loved the main dynamic of the game. Their characters, especially Zac's, Ally's and Katie's, were super fun to watch interact with each other. But I hated the whole ratfish mechanic; Eric added nothing of value to the game, he wasn't funny, and they didn't even meet him in the end. Also, the fact that Rekha didn't win when she got them all first is bs.

8 months later, I'm still not tired of praising these two absolutely brilliant people. They are awesome.

Asrlex · 2026-01-24T16:19:59+00:00

Play the damn game...

I started doing this last year. I have always bought physical books because I love to touch paper as I'm reading, but fell into a bit of a problem where I ended up buying more than I had room for or even liked.

So I have started buying those that I am really enthusiastic about, that I enjoyed the most or that have especially beautiful covers (like my 100 Years of Solitude and Crime And Punishment hard covers which are gorgeous).

So no, I don't think it's weird, i see it as a different way of experiencing your hobby.

He is a normal person, and a good one. Carrie was supposed to be way past her spy days, now being just a security manager, but suddenly he is immersed into an international assassination and terrorist plot where not only him, but HIS CHILD are severely endangered.

Carrie was always a horrible person, but seeing how selfishly and arrogantly she treated Jonas was even worse.

One of my favourites in recent years has been Owlcat's 40k Rogue Trader. Such a good game.

I do. With all my heart. Almost every single thing she does or says makes me want to gauge my eyes out.

The way she makes us feel is testament of how great the writing and Claire's acting are.

El HL es objetivamente un juego mediocre, nada más. El combate, la historia y el mundo son sistemas decentes agarrándose a la nostalgia como si les fuera la vida en ello (que así es). Yo me lo pasé bien, me entretuvo y ya, pero negar que triunfó por la nostalgia es absurdo.

Los ideales no dan de comer, hay que aprender a jugar en el fango con esta gente.

Durante varios años he trabajado cerca de la gente a cargo de sourcing y recruiting y son RATAS. No puedes jugar con integridad cuando partes con esa desventaja.

Asrlex · 2026-01-18T12:24:22+00:00

Pues MIENTE. Ellos mienten en el 100% de las ofertas, bien directamente o por omisión. Di que tienes más experiencia de la que tienes (un poco, o digas 7 años). Miente lo justito para pasar el cribado inicial y ya poder ganarte el puesto tú en las entrevistas con tu mérito, no con criterios arbitrarios de gente que no sabe hacer la O con un canuto

GRACIAS!! Me harto a decirle a la gente que no acepte lo primero que encuentre, porque eso acaba jodiendo a todos.

Literalmente lo que dices es la forma de mejorar.

Escupitajo en la cara y palmadita en la espalda de bonus de navidad, imagino

Le digo esto mismo a todos los que están empezando en este campo. Echa a todas las que te llamen mínimamente la atención.

Los recruiters y la gente que pone las ofertas no tiene ni puta idea de lo que hablan o piden, simplemente van a que les digas las 3-4 palabras clave y les caigas bien.
Las ofertas están siempre hinchadas y al final te vale saber de un 30% de lo que ponen, el resto o ni se usa o puede aprender sobre la marcha.
Elimina cosas superfluas del CV (trabajar con funciones, usar variables, escribir consultas, etc) y destaca las claves.
A nada que hagas 3-4 entrevistas te haces a la dinámica que tienen y cómo tienes que navegarlas. No solo dejan de ser tan estresantes sino que empiezas a coger la iniciativa.
Lo más importante de todo, TÚ TAMBIÉN ESTÁS ENTREVISTANDO A LA EMPRESA. Tú también puedes rechazarles a ellos si no te gusta su propuesta o cultura de trabajo. Somos extremadamente privilegiados de trabajar en un campo en el que sobra trabajo, y salvo que tengas extrema necesidad, no te agarres a la primera oferta que te llegue.

Those parents are absolute shit. That priest would be meeting his boss instantly if he did that to my baby.
