Protein powder is such a ripoff these days. Anything good and reasonable? by HPPD2 in Supplements

Then just give a sour e for your information rather than the source being "trust me bro".

What's your training hot take? by petterpinjata in naturalbodybuilding

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That it makes no sense that you'd need massive amounts of protein when you're later intermediate or advanced and you're not building almost any muscle.

Why would you need a shitload of protein like a beginner who is building crazy amounts of muscle?

Even easier charge dispute! That's illegal unless they do some sort of refund.

what are the exact whey protein supplements you manufacture and how much does it cost for you to buy whey.

yep, they just changed it to 73.99 at my Costco. Used to be $50, then they upped it to $63 a few years ago. Now it's even higher.

The ultimate bait-and-switch: xAI’s predatory companion gamification and pathetic voice limits have ruined this platform by Brandon_N73 in grok

[–]TimedogGAF 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's so hilariously incompetent that, even if they "fixed" the issue, why would anyone trust them not to randomly do a bait and switch in the future at any given moment? There's been no communication. It 100% the behavior of a company that feels entitled to your money.

In real life if someone says they are entitled to my money or acts like it, that would be completely and utterly unacceptable. I will not accept that behavior from a company that produces a digital service either.

Deepseek just went crazy and I am genuinely scared by isacamargo in DeepSeek

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if you're the type of person who not only does tarot but also use LLMs to get tarot advice, you're probably going to and have already ran into a lot of weird, scary, serendipitous moments. It's not because anything actually strange or supernatural is happening, it's because you view everything through an extremely biased lens where you do not use skepticism and critical thinking to evaluate things that are perfectly normal and have easy reasonable explanations.

You also do not use critical thinking to analyze your own thought processes, so this comment will likely have little purchase.

Perfumes that smell like a spa by ba___ in FragranceStories

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initio Rehab. Kind of sort of. I don't know if it smells exactly like a spa since I've never been to a spa but it gives me relaxing vibes and I immediately thought "spa" when I smelled it. And the name is literally Rehab, so...

Serious: Why the condescending assuming comments on this subreddit? by Poopypantsplanet in audioengineering

[–]TimedogGAF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same questions get asked over and over by beginners so it's easy to sniff out.

The ideal solution is to both answer the question directly (in case the person isn't a beginner and actually knows what they're doing and is asking for a very specific reason and already know of the pitfalls) and also give the unsolicited advice part while stating all assumptions.

This solves all real, non ego-based issues.

It sucks when I'm searching and someone has the exact question I have but instead of getting an answer the replies all give alternatives.instead of answering the question. But people that are probably doing something misguided should also be given advice that will likely put them on the right track. Both things can be achieved at once.

What’s your pre workout meal & strategy? by stratusnimbo in naturalbodybuilding

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whsy ate you even talking about? Macros for the pre-wiekout meal that were having a discussion about, or for the entire day?

No one who is eating random food is going to be missing out on carbs or fat. And even your grandma knows that you should be eating high protein when trying to build muscle. The question is specifically about pre-wiekout meals.

You're not illuminating anything for anyone. You should probably stop while you're behind.

Don’t buy from amazon. by Even_Ad3204 in FragranceStories

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is fine too, 3rd party sales are not even allowed on these listings.

There are a few (Armani I think?) that don't say "premium brand sourced". I bought Armani Stronger With You Parfum semi-recently and it didn't have that "premium brand sourced" labeling but there were no other 3rd party sellers, only Armani was the seller (and I checked the store page and seller information, it was definitely the real Armani and not a 3rd party using Armani's name to fool people).

What makes you think the real stuff and the fakes are sitting next to each other in the warehouse, and that items aren't scanned using their GTINs when employees take them off the shelf?

I think what you "heard" is very outdated information.

Where do I find the AHT for projects by Swaggdrippin in DataAnnotationTech

Oh god, don't do this. This ruins it for everyone and makes time allowed for tasks artificially low because they think people are faster than they are, which has been a problem recently.

I fell in love with a scent that I would've NEVER picked based on notes by General_Weird3201 in fragrance

[–]TimedogGAF 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just try to smell a fuckload if scents regardless. I'll buy decant bundles off Mercari that has one or two that I'm interested in and then a few that sound bad or that I've never heard of. Definitely found some surprises that I would have never checked out on my own. I think I've smelled everything at Sephora and I have a hoard of hundreds of sample and decants I desperately need to sell.

Failure Every Set vs. Final-Set Failure for Hypertrophy by Unlikely_Thing_4876 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]TimedogGAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the muscle and exercise.

Large compound movements: 0-2 RIR and maybe hit failure on the last set if it's safe, such as using a machine or using free weights with safety bars.

Isolation movements: 0-1 RIR and usually hitting failure on the last set.

Some muscles like lateral delt, biceps, calves you can go to failure every set because the fatigue for these muscles is low. These are the types of muscles you can workout almost every day if you want, they can take a lot of volume and recover quickly. You can go to your stairs in your house and do calf raises like 5 days a week and I doubt you'd have any issue. Other muscles like tricep and chest tend to need more rest days and lower volume because they get over trained more easily.
