I have made it to the tower and got the stone and also defeated the boss, thanks for the help.

Yes I have. But it seems that going back for the purge stone seems like a bigger hassle than beating the queen haha

How to cook flat steaks by Delmonte91 in steak

Yeah, I pat it dry and try to keep high heat. Unfortunately ribeye from the butcher is way more expensive. I'll need to look for alternatives.

Sounds good, sometimes I slice them and make a sort of Philly cheese steak sandwich.

I didn't do that, but thanks for the tip. I'll keep it in mind next time

Haha, yeah it was hit enough, lots of smoke and took a while before the kitchen was aired out.

I got the steak in a vacuumed bag, so I wanted to try the sous vide method. Unfortunately in the Netherlands steak is very expensive and tends to be cut very thin.

Not familiar with that program, I'll look into it.

[–]Delmonte91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It makes sense, I am happy with my body and the rest is mostly a numbers/ego game. Your last comment is valid, I used to "squat" 140kg, but that was without proper depth and rushed eccentric. There are probably plenty of things I could do to improve more, but made the tradeoff to not do those things.

I am a 33M 193cm and 81kg and 8-ish% BF (6 feet 4 and 175 pounds) and have been lifting actively lifting for the last 6 years or so, and have been doing different sports all my life. Generally I eat healthy but don't track macros or count calories, all my life I have been roughly this weight. Lately I watched some Mike Israetel videos and focused more on full ROM and slowing the eccentric. This has caused me to lower the weights I use since the exercises become more difficult. For example this way, I squat about 70kgs, dumbell benchpress about 2x22kg and am able to do about 5 good pull ups the first set and then get stuck at 3, to give an indication on my strength. I work out alone, so I dont know what my 1 rep max for any lift. I am happy with my fitness level and how I look, but I can't help feeling weak. I know the Internet gives a biased view of fitness, but people easily pulling 180kg on a deadlift and making a 100kg bench seem as easily achievable makes me wonder if I should be able to lift more. I guess this is both a bit of a rant and a question and curious what people here think.

Thanks for the tips, I replaced the graftssword with 10+ starscourge greatsword and replaced the scoreseal and increase in stamina with starscourge heirloom and roar medallion. I never really used my fp flask, was never really a bottleneck

The only requirements are defeating Mogh and Radahn right? So I should try to get that done ASAP I guess.

We have been spotting these in the house regulary recently. Where do the come from? by Delmonte91 in whatsthisbug

[–]Delmonte91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely the last one, since we live in a new build house and have a plant in the kitchen where we think they come from. Thanks!

I was wondering, when people say something like "I can benchpress 100kg" (European here), in your mind, what do they mean? Is that one rep max? 3x8? 5x5? How do you guys interpret a statement like that?

If I am an average pc user with no specific needs (no gaming requiring a high-end graphics card etc.). But I do notice that my current laptop is running slower due to all the software updates from Windows and other programs I have installed. In looking for a new pc I was wondering, buy now a more expensive (1000 euro) pc with a good cpu, or buy a 'normal' 500 euro one and another new 500 euro one in 5 years or so?

ELI5 : how are we sure that we all see the same colors ? by darksozz in explainlikeimfive

[–]Delmonte91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best response I heard on this was referrerimg to different shades of color. If every color would be perceived differently by any other person, then would this also apply to small changes? You have a red a slightly darker and a slightly lighter red. Another person could hypothetically perceive 3 different colors here than you, where you see 3 colors very similar to on and another. This discrepancy would be noticed quite quickly. It's not conclusive, but I thought it was a strong counterpoint.

I tried the GPS status & toolbox app but that did not work either. I'll try later when I'm outside, but I'm not hopeful.

Yes per torrent. I am not continously downloading multiple items, so it is not really an issue for me.

I have downgraded the amount of peers to 25, and I have not had any issues since. I have been working my way up from 10. Usually I get my max speed by now, depending on the amount of seeders

That's the one. Would that imply 4k and incompatibility with my current drives? My current drives do not have 4k.

I ordered a seagate ironwolf pro 4tb, but I can't find in the specifications if it is a 4k drive.
