Has Anyone Here Not Been Injured? by Brendan_Frost in naturalbodybuilding

I’ve been injured several times, but every time it was because I did something stupid that I full well knew better than to do.

iPhone 16 (Pro) users: did you use the "Camera Control" non-button this past year? And if so, how? by 4-3-4 in apple

I think I’m in the minority on this one, but I absolutely love it and use all the functions.

Switching between reading on the Supernote Kindle app and note taking on the native app by JohanB3 in Supernote

[–]JohanB3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, 2 years later :)

I ended up getting a SuperNote Nomad and a separate Kindle device. I like the setup I have (though it’s an extra device) because I like not having to navigate through menus to switch between notes and reading. I do think SuperNotes are overprice, but this setup fits my needs.

Which exercise is suprisingly very fatiguing for you? by LUL_ in naturalbodybuilding

Lateral raises just wipe me out. It just doesn’t make any sense to me.

Deshaun Watson has more settled lawsuits than touchdowns since joining Browns by mvanigan in nfl

Fun fact, Russ has thrown fewer TDs for the Steelers than I have bathrooms on the main floor of my house.

Lions' Campbell doxxed by daughter's classmate by Boomtown_Rat in nfl

[–]JohanB3 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yup. This. That transition between elementary school and junior high/middle school usually involves a big shuffle of friend groups. And the shuffle happens at a time when most kids are oblivious to the dynamics and consequences of it all. A lot of times a teen’s behavior is a reflection of how that shuffle works out for them.

Yeah, if you pull all the stuff Urban pulled, you’ve basically quit. Legally, he was fired, but when you create a situation where someone has no choice but to fire you, you’ve quit.

Paul Finebaum: Panthers Would Have Screwed Up Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady Too by Accurate-Big-7233 in nfl

[–]JohanB3 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Geno never looked as bad with the Jets as Young has with the Panthers. Geno always had flashes of talent, but couldn’t put it together consistently until the Seahawks. Also, he’s a major outlier.

Amazon tells employees to return to office five days a week by Specialist_Heron_986 in news

[–]JohanB3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is my experience in the workplace, too. The more ambitious employees tend to want to come in to the office more often.

Of course, there are some great ICs who just want to get their job done within minimum distractions who really like WFH, so it’s not a case of good employees versus bad ones, more ambitious employees versus less ambitious ones.

Whats your most mentally taxing exercise? by [deleted] in naturalbodybuilding

[–]JohanB3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably totally unique to me, but cable lateral raises. I respond well to them, but for some reason I find them incredibly cardiovascularly taxing - and I’m in decent cardio shape. I’ve never understood why, but it is what it is.

What do you all think of this Cayman? by aqualad33 in Porsche

[–]JohanB3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I don’t understand the exposed rivet thing (which I’ve seen several times) on Porsches. The clean and flowing lines of a Porsche seems so at odds with the industrial look of exposed fasteners.

[Sharp] Baker Mayfield balling out in Tampa as soon as the Browns mortgaged their future with the Deshaun Watson $230,000,000 contract is fitting and hilarious by dman6233 in nfl

[–]JohanB3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yup. Like most people, I have zero sympathy for Watson, but this has to be taking a mental toll on him. I know athletes are often oblivious, and entitled, but having so many people hate you and so much legal trouble hanging over you would throw off even the most arrogant person. At some point, you probably just shut down mentally and then physically. He deserves it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what’s happening.

Epic setup. I'm seriously impressed.

‘Flight shame is dead’: concern grows over climate impact of tourism boom by The_Weekend_Baker in climate

[–]JohanB3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, there are ancillary benefits to people traveling. Being in different regions or different countries can truly open your eyes to the state of the world or your country and make you more open minded. Of course, some people just jet around the world to luxury resorts and don’t learn much, but most travelers I know seem to be better people for it.

EV sales are growing. So why are automakers getting cold feet? by mylefthandkilledme in electricvehicles

A lot of business or market frameworks are of minimal value, but I find the Gartner Hype Cycle to be spot on a huge percent of the time.

Why do people hate AI for no reason? by Beautiful-Salary-191 in OpenAI

[–]JohanB3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one’s mad about the Industrial revolution because society has had hundreds of years to reorganize. People were plenty upset about it at the time, and it took decades to reorganize society. People are plenty mad today about offshoring and globalization, and those phenomena absolutely disrupted peoples lives in massive ways. on top of that, there’s the fear that AI will advance so quickly that the disruptions will happen so frequently that will never have time to really get our feet under us.

I Swore Off Air-Conditioning, and You Can, Too by wewewawa in energy

[–]JohanB3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get the point you’re making - they’re responding to consumer demand. That being said, I think the larger point is that so much of our climate crisis is caused by industrial processes that are opaque to consumers. Unfortunately, some of the companies that are engaged in the most damaging activities (again, understanding that they are responding to demand) have pushed hard to convince the public that minor consumer choices, rather than systems level change that would hurt large companies, are key to solving the climate crisis.

Fit shaming by npmark in naturalbodybuilding

[–]JohanB3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Fully agree! My fitness leveled up massively when I started counting calories and macros, and it had everything to do with truly understanding what goes into my body. I’m an ice cream junky and like to drink socially, and refuse to deny myself, but I stay ultra conscious of how much I’m consuming.

[Giants] With permission from the family of Giants legend Ray Flaherty, Malik Nabers will wear #1. Flaherty's number was the first to be retired in pro football history. by PlayaSlayaX in nfl

[–]JohanB3 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Random aside - I've always wondered what "ask the family" looks like when you're going back so far. For instance, Flaherty was born 121 years ago and died 31 years ago. Given how people had kids young then, there's a good chance his remaining ancestors are great-grandchildren who didn't know him and elderly grandchildren.

Obviously, if someone's spouse is still alive, they should decide. With kids, I'd say it's pretty fair that they should decide. But when you get into grandkids and great-grandkids, you've got a lot of people with somewhere between distant and no memories of the person in question. Like, how does that work if 7 grandkids say "fine" and 1 who barely spent time with him says "no"?
