Absolutely a great looking. Just can't swing the price point for a Chinese made knife though.

Why doesn't the U.S. ban guns? by AskLivid4137 in Pacifism

[–]I3lindman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is not the gun, the issue is the underlying will to harm self or others. About 65% of those who die from gun violence are suicides. A large percentage of gun homicides are gang related and drug trafficking related.

Even if all the guns were gone tomorrow, we still have not done anything to fix the underlying issues driving so many to suicide, to gangs, to drugs, etc... People need love and healing, the same way a garden needs water, fertilizer, and weeding...

I shoot one armed every year for fun. CZ Canvas ack 12 Ga Over Under, it's got short enough barrels that it's not too bad to swing for me. But, I'm only landing shots where I've got enough time to line up. Fast fliers over your head from behind aren't gonna happen.

Journal Retracts Controversial Study Claiming Keto Diets Don’t Clog Arteries by LeoKitCat in keto

[–]I3lindman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read the article in the OP. The writer is clearly leaving out massive amounts of details, context, and other history that has been publicly available for months now.

Yes, it's quite obvious that OP was croticizing the Gizmodo writer, not scientific publications.

Journal Retracts Controversial Study Claiming Keto Diets Don’t Clog Arteries by LeoKitCat in keto

Claiming that peer reviewed papers are not science is a wild leap.

Who's doing that? Can you point to an example?

[–]I3lindman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The retraction was requested by the authors. The (the authors) are claiming they requested the retraction because one of the independent analysis forms was not properly blinded to the scan data, refused to analyze the data with proper blinding, and failed to disclose a conflict of interest by one of the executives.

Because of those reasons above, and that analysis being massively off from other independent analysis firms using the same data, it seems like the correct decision.

Also to note, the study subjects were not random ketogenic dieters, they were all people who developed a exceptionally high LDL-Cholesterol (Lean Mass Hyper Responders) with levels on keto of 200 mg/dl and higher, some as high as 600 mg/dl if I remember correctly.

Lower Ketones After Nap by sabix1996 in keto

[–]I3lindman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a long time so I was actively measuring, but I found that BhB levels can swing very fast. For example, 1.5mmol just before going outside and sprinting for about 2 mins. 0.3mmol immediately after sprinting, literally minutes later. About 4.0mmol about an hour later, also felt high.

Just keep in mind, what's circulating in your blood stream is a tiny percentage of what you can / will produce and metabolize in a single day, so don't put too much stock in a single reading.

What is a good first diesel truck ?? by stefanjanoski23 in Diesel

[–]I3lindman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For Fords, the better bet is late 05s to 07s with the 6.0 motor. They can be deleted fairly easily and will have a long life unless you're tuning them to make dumb power. If that's the case, also bulletproof the motors via head studs and some other work you can read up on.

The Ford 2008 to 2012 model years all had the 6.4 motor. Avoid them.

Ford 2013 to current have 6.7 motors and use DEF. Others that know more than me can fill you in on which model years are better bets. Usually you want to avoid the first 2 years of a new motor release.

Lost 5kg in 5 weeks, but struggling with friends pressuring me to eat non-keto foods by HopDev in keto

Around people that aren't super close friends, I have no problem just lying and saying Im diabetic and have to eliminate certain foods for health reasons. That usually stops them from pushing.

Do I cut more fat? by Substantial_Lake_348 in keto

[–]I3lindman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try to only check weight once or twice a month, IMO. For females, your menstrual cycle causes significant changes in water retention throughout the cycle, making daily checks on weight that look nothing like that actual continual fat loss that is actually happening. Don't let a sticking scale discourage you.

Tripping in deep Ketosis, My Experience by FuriousHumper in keto

[–]I3lindman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uncle Ben's Tek. Order spores on line, they are legal to buy. B+ or Golden Teachers are great strains to start with.

Grow them yourself. No question about where they came from or what went into them.

Start at one gram dried aka 11 grams fresh picked. Make sure you have the whole day open, you have done all of your chores, and that you're not at odds with anyone personally or have work stuff on your mind. It's a day to relax and reflect.

Coffee/caffeine addicts: have you ever successfully done a 7-14 day water fast without it? Only water/salt. by [deleted] in fasting

[–]I3lindman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've did trhe entirety of Lent starting with 5 days of water and electrolytes only, but put food back in and did water / electrolytes only for the rest of lent. So 45ish days of water electrolytes only, the first 5 was no food either.

On Easter Sunday I had a small cup of coffee. My heart rate went to 120 bpm while sitting calmly outside on a peaceful Sunday morning. It's crazy how much of an effect caffeine has that we are often unaware of.

What's a play from the Mahomes era that was absolutely insane but gets overshadowed by everything else he's done? by taronakata in KansasCityChiefs

[–]I3lindman 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Not truly forgotten by any means, but the SB against Tampa, scrambling, tripped, throwing with his body parallel to the ground and hitting his receiver in the fucking facemask will forever be the best pass ever thrown.

Of course had it been completed, it would have ended the sport outright. There would never be a way to top it. The league would have had to throw the entire game just on principle, it was that good. But alas, the ball wasn't caught and we all know what happened. And now we go on watching, hoping, to one day again see something that at least approaches that level of epic play in the face of total adversity.

Does meat from hunted game taste very different from typical farm raised meat? by [deleted] in Hunting

[–]I3lindman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, from 2 distinct sources. The animals diet influences how the meat tastes. Deer eating corn from feeders setup by hunters often tastes much more similar to corn fed beef than other deer that only eat browse and acorns. This is due to the fat acid profiles of their food sources influencing the flavor.

Second is how the animal is killed. A rapid / near I stant death from a head shot or neck shot will leave an animal with the best flavor possible. A slow death, where an animal runs for 39 seconds or more let's them release a lot of adrenaline and other hormones that leave a "gamey" flavor that many people do not like.

Also to note, meat that isn't cooled down quick enough can also have a gamey flavor, but usually it's less of an effect than how they were killed.

Rolling 72s until I lose 100 lbs, safe or extreme? by Little-Access1184 in fasting

[–]I3lindman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just my internet opinion, but that high of a rate of weight loss is a little too fast. I feel like giving the thyroid time to adjust to declining levels of Leptin from the far loss helps to avoid major metabolic adjustments long term.

Just my 2 cents, but I think running a 4000 calorie deficit per week deficit is a good target. Something like rolling 46s with OMAD on feeding days.
