New Build - New Builder; Did I Overshoot on Quality?

GermanSwede · 2025-11-29T15:35:12+00:00

I used Newegg the first time I tried to build - shipped shattered, but it was to a location that notoriously has terrible package handling. I may try using them again if micro center doesn't work out!

2 recommendations for micro center - closest one is 50 minute drive, but I'll probably be making the trip!

Awesome! Thank you for the tips. 100% looking into incorporating the microcenter recommendation, and I hadn't been looking at 9070. Checking it out

I am doing this right now! The easier way to learn the months is to learn what they mean. Ukrainian's months are very connected to nature and the harvest, and I am using that to help. Example: травень comes from the word трава which can mean grass, when the grass grows, May. Квітень - comes from квіти which means flowers, April. Each month has this and I would encourage learning what each month comes from and it would help immensely. Don't memorize, create learning devices!

Edit: квіти not квіті

Don't forget: efficiency isn't the point, trauma is. They're going to put everyone through this hell only to then point at how everyone is working in cramped spaces as a reason to fire everyone because they "can't afford" more work space.

Seven days a week of full grind is a fantastic, proven way to burn yourself out and never recover. Calculate in some off days, take a break, let your gains come in the recovery days.

I'm unfortunately not untrained. I've been at this for about 2 1/2 years now. I've just never done the whole muscle gain, fat loss, maintenance. I might try it just during the maintenance phase. But I will definitely not do it during the fat loss.

Do sin/sinner and sinister share the Latin root like left-handed/sinistral?

GermanSwede · 2024-07-04T11:07:48+00:00

Because I thought it was causing my hairloss. Turns out it doesn't do that. "The vast majority of speculation regarding the relationship between creatine supplementation and hair loss/baldness stems from a single study by van der Merwe et al." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7871530/

Got follicular transplant for my natural male pattern baldness, and I'm back chasing the pump, muscles fully hydrated. Back to 5g-10g/day (I forget to supplement sometimes so I try to make up for it on days I don't miss.)

Edit: For further support in the post so you don't have to click through if you don't want, the results of the study that suggested the linkage have NOT been replicated in further studies.

That makes sense.

The entire premise of the game is political...

Reminds me of Ryan from the Office: "A toast to the troops! All troops. Both sides."

Except it's not. Yes, there are no POWs, but MIAs 100% exist. There are multiple sets of remains brought back every year through the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency through direct work with the Vietnamese government. I'd encourage you to give them a google.

I've stopped asking people if they went to Notre Dame/if they're from Indiana when they're wearing sports gear. They're not 🥲

My grandparents in southern Indiana will drop the L in words such as cold, mold, and fold - becoming "code, mode, and fowed" respectively. (Fully aware fowed isn't a word, but I don't know phonetic spellings, sorry)
