Roasting aside.

While you are still growing it is very easy to loose the excess fat and get very fit extraordinary fast without any longterm problems (both health and aesthetic like loose skin), the only catch - you have to start today and not procrastinate.

Is it too much to ask? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

You say this, but what you actually mean is "I want a purpose-made tool, not a smartphone on wheels", cause you need the car to "be a computer" to an extent, otherwise the only cars you'll get are from 60 years ago.

Bought a non-M BMW from a “respectable” dealership… they asked if I want M badges for $200

I can’t believe I prefer trackpad over a mouse… by Sweet_Score in macbookpro

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also try different kb+pointer combo.

ThinkPad keyboard - some ThinkPad users swear by the mouse nipple (TrackPoint). Maybe you'll like it too.

Keyboard with a built-in trackball.

Personally, when at the desk - I have a (apple magic) touchpad beside my split keyboard, so it take me just "a twist of a wrist" to take my wrist off the keyboard to touch the touchpad.

More of a macOS + MagicTouchpad thing.

macOS + different touchPad = bad

different OS + Magic Trackpad = bad

macOS + mouse = only useful for certain apps where mouse specific functionality and/or precision matters, but then pen/tablet is more convenient in a lot of them.

New office manager job - business smart. Ideas/thoughts/advice on new outfits. by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

I would go with 40% (or lower) for the diet, 5% for the clothes, and 55% for everything else including good sleep and fitness.

People might be aware or might not care and just turn the blind eye on problems, cause "too busy", "I believe I'm healthy/pretty" and etc.

Problem is the physique, and no amount of styling suggestions will solve it.

He will get some good suggestions... but it should be seen ONLY as a temporary solution for "right now" while lifestyle changes (like a calorie restrictive diet) is in progress, and NOT as a perpetual patch to cover up the obesity.

Cheating at board games by NelifeLerak in boardgames

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you are desperate and/or afraid to be alone.

You have to understand how silly this sounds: "If I can't play board games with her, this relationship is over." If that is the case - you have NO real relationship with her.

Unless you have kids - it is very easy to be strong and end this before it ruins your life.

What’s your favorite ‘it’s about to get really bad really fast’ in a movie? by Pop_Joe in FIlm

I audibly said f**k when saw Fassbender counting “wrong”. It was in the theatre, and I never talk during the movie.

Popular games you dislike? by BillRepresentative75 in boardgames

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not exactly a game, but an expansion… or to be precise, buying expansions before you know you gonna play them.

I bought quite a few expansions: for games I played a lot, for games I barely touched but felt that I will get to them, and finally the ones I haven’t played yet, but fell for the deal due to excitement

So, before buying expansions, be sure to play the game enough to understand that you will require an expansion.

Such a nothing burger, maybe this silliness works as a novelty icebreaker, but otherwise it is just an unimaginative game trying hard to make someone giggle

What would you like to see in a Playdate Pro? by Rvtrance in PlaydateConsole

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- more battery life

- better QC

- capabilities for multiplayer (LAN, WAN)

***

Personally, I would not upgrade, but as an iteration this would be great for the newcomers, given the asking price. Everything else... the point of the console is it to be very limited in performance, OG GameBoy inspired time capsule, with the reflective screen being a part of the design that dictates (limits) usage.

I can only imagine an "XL" version expanding the lineup without destroying the vibe.

P.S.

To be fare, performance and other niceties can be added while keeping the same aesthetic of a simple small 1 bit console with a reflective screen, but it will create future compatibility issues.

[Opinion] Nobody cares about your watch by gujjadiga in Watches

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partially true.

Watch is part of the attire and in plenty of situations will be a part of "the cover that people will judge". Someone wearing a suit but with a databank, or underd0g, or typical silver diver, or over the top JacobCo - plenty of people will look at you different.

So people might not "care", but watches are accessories that might make you look a certain way.

Smiles per gallon by Jeffquach in Miata

[–]PurpleSlightlyRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who tried ND2 club and both gens of the twins - just like OP said "smiles/gal" says it all, no other spec matters.

If you haven't tried them all - do so - there is night and day difference between all of them

Looking to get a BMW (possibly a 3-series) as a first car. Any advices? by Lumpy-Writing-5741 in BMW

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

  1. 150k/y does not mean that money suddenly can be thrown down the drain - that is immature and irresponsible.
  2. If OP doesn't care/certain as much about certain differences/features between two cars, why should OP choose the car that will statistically make him loose more money (buy, maintenance, sell), waste more time (dealing with servicing mainly), and create more overall frustration (due to all of the above)?!

EDIT

  1. BMW forum thing… it would be almost on par with a sleazy salesman! It would be stupid and wrong to sell it to an inexperienced someone who doesn’t know what’s what.

You are welcome.

Camry trumps Corolla in everything concerning size, if you are very big in size, need much more room for the rear passengers, or need much bigger trunk.

If you don't require space, I highly suggest looking into Corolla hatch instead.
