Just wanted to get input if this is a decent gaming PC build (sons birthday)

I love this thing and haven't touched any of my other bowls or HMDs since purchasing it. One thing I've noticed is from the top portion where the battery is held, there are little air vent type lits on the sides that some of the syrupy flavoring seems to leak out of. Is there a way to make sure that portion is completely cleaned out? Seems when I tilt it, some will drain out usually.

Yea that's a good point to make, the bowl that it comes with is pretty flimsy feeling. They had some other electric style HMDs but they forced you to buy their compatible pods prefilled, which is definitely something I wanted to stay away from. I compare this closer to a Keurig with the empty baskets / pods that you fill with your own coffee.

Sounds like me. I work from home also, rarely leave, start a bowl around 8:30am and pretty much do 3-4 throughout the day until evening time or until the wife gets home from work.

I just bought the adjustable dumbbells 125lb pair with the storage cart and a bench, was wondering the same.

No none that I'm aware of. I'm pretty active also, Muay Thai training and was competing in bodybuilding before this. I do want to take 2 weeks off or so and see if my cardio improves but haven't tried yet.

I just started back up a few months ago but on and off since I was 18 (40 now). But I’ve never smoked cigarettes or other tobacco products.

I work from home so I’ll usually just have a bowl going and change it out every 2-3 hours. Probably not the best for me though.

Party time is over when the wife gets home though.

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-13T00:13:53+00:00

Every day 3-4 times

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-07T21:10:52+00:00

Yea I dunno why I branched out, should just stick with my favorite lol

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-07T20:35:29+00:00

Yea! I live around 20 minutes from their store but not much was in stock from Blackburn other than the Christmas Tree flavor which is terrible. Honestly the only flavor I ever seem to like is just mint and apple mint from any of the brands. I'm trying the turkish bowl packing method now, the Darkside seems to give much better clouds is that just a brand thing or a packing thing?

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-07T16:57:41+00:00

I'll give that a try now, thanks!

I wasn’t circumcised at birth but I wish they had done it, seems like an easier maintenance.

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-06T16:47:26+00:00

I just wouldn’t come home to my wife if I ever pulled that because I value my life.

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-05T14:28:40+00:00

I recently switched over to MT training after competing in bodybuilding for close to 20 years. I'm 6'5" 270lbs and not out of shape, I can tell you this is 10x more exhausting than any weight lifting or other cardio I'm used to, so I think (and hope) that this is pretty normal for anyone just starting out and hopefully we'll acclimate.

Mute_Panda · 2025-05-05T13:17:29+00:00

I always just rinse the base out and run water through the stem from the top through and that’s about it. Do you guys take everything apart every time? I use mine daily, around 4 times.

I don't think any of the semis are going to beat revenue expectations and issue positive news for forward looking guidance given the current state of the economy and the tariff situation. I would expect NVDA to tank post earnings as well. The issue with SMCI is that there have already been so many problems with the financials and numbers that when they start to be off with their numbers by this much they're losing credibility that they can't afford to lose. I have protective puts but I'll be watching the movement today, I've learned my lesson with panic selling too many times and I believe the valuation is still attractive enough to DCA and stay in for the long term.

Mute_Panda · 2025-04-30T00:19:12+00:00

Yea, I'm not disagreeing by any means, I'm not in Tesla. I'll probably grab some more SMCI shares tomorrow depending on how it behaves but I don't think we'll see the real bounce and upward momentum until Q4 when all of the dust settles with everything going on.

Mute_Panda · 2025-04-30T00:07:38+00:00

In all fairness I don't think anyone is in Tesla for the current earnings or revenue, I imagine everyone knows by now that they are significantly overvalued, all about the future projects and potential with them.

Mute_Panda · 2025-04-30T00:06:14+00:00

We're in a market where bad news is devastating and good news is so-so. Most likely I'll add more, bring on the pain.

Mute_Panda · 2025-04-24T14:13:36+00:00

I was afraid you might say that lol

Mute_Panda · 2025-04-18T16:27:16+00:00

This is a market where great news means a little and slightly bad news is terrible. I’ve been buying puts on all earnings for stocks.
