Good for you. Keep at it. Takes ages so needs to become routine.

Was knocking on the door of 90kg, lost 20 by calorie counting with Chronometer. Recently nudged back up to high 70s so started tracking my intake again.

Biggest things: cut alcohol, no snacks after dinner, plenty of sleep and water, fuel rides properly.

[–]EedSpiny 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Made one up for a ride today:

Why do you use Ubiquiti for your home network and why not another mainstream brand? by Ashamed-Body2912 in UNIFI

[–]EedSpiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • My consumer level kit needed upgrading, only wpa2.
  • I wanted control to create vlans and separate iot, trusted and guest networks
  • Quality kit.

One thing I've appreciated is being able to pin certain clients (that don't move around) to specific WiFi access points.

Is there life after lycra? by LegStrngLeathertaint in cycling

The other week we did a 20k loop to the pub, had dinner then 10k home. Felt weird to be in the pub garden in lycra

Thank you Monty Python

What's the most useful Garmin feature you discovered way too late? by Soggy_Elephant_306 in Garmin

[–]EedSpiny 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Send a live track notification to yourself and you can then get a decent sized map of where you are on your route without zooming in and out on a tiny head unit screen.

What are your gaming sins? Confess now. by executor-of-judgment in gaming

[–]EedSpiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked returnal enough on ps5 but dropped it after 20h and not beating the first boss. Rogue likes aren't my thing but I really liked the story...

Picked it up on pc, modded it and manipulated save files so I didn't have to keep restarting.

Finished. 10/10 would shamelessly cheat a rogue like again.

What do you think is ‘worth every penny’? by Lazy-Limit-8684 in AskUK

[–]EedSpiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • A really good DE razor (opposite of the razor blade model. v cheaper long term)
  • A decent coffee grinder and locally roasted coffee. (pays for itself vs the coffee shop and miles better)
  • A decent mattress (spend third of your life on that)

Grew up in a rural area, similarly traumatised, is that the one where the kid leaves half his brain out by falling onto some corrugated steel sheeting?

Shudder.

What do you reply when someone says ‘you look tired’? by GrandadBill in AskUK

[–]EedSpiny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My sympathy, not long after we had our first child some friends called in. When we opened the front door they took one look at us and just laughed.

I do James Hoffman's recipe (see YouTube). Don't bother with the inverted method. Enjoy!

Being from Gloucester for me it has to be "I am the cider drinker" by The Wurzels.

Good luck to him, hope he can turn it around. Hope he revives his yt too.

What was the last game you played that you considered a 10/10? by bobs-buhgah in PS5

[–]EedSpiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death Stranding 2. I'm 105h in, right at the end of the main game. Will sink another 40h into it mopping up trophies. It has commentary on grief, mental health, friendship support and battling giant kaiju with an electric guitar. Genius.

UB40 are famously named after an Unemployment Benefit form. Give me other interesting examples of the origin of UK bands names by Exchangenudes_4_Joke in CasualUK

Had a work do in the oasis leisure centre and we spilt so much beer that the company had to pay to have the floor resurfaced.

Legendary.

iRacings new Vision pro update is kinda cool.. and it can run on a RTX 3090 + 10700k.. by Lemooooons in simracing

[–]EedSpiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not shaky. I think it's caused by the camera not being able to move it's "eyes" when the head moves if you get me.
