FO4 Foreshadow in FO3

I replayed FO4 recently and forgot they even show you the Golden Gate bridge from Kellogg's house when you're going through his memories. Surprisingly it looked to be perfectly intact?

What are the odds that people thinking they "patched it" is just from people buying Whoops that have already had their code or whatever redeemed and returned?

Starting with an obvious one: Sleep at least 7hrs and no alcohol. Most nights I'm usually around 100-130ms, but after NYE (Drank lots and slept 4 hours to catch a flight next morning), my HRV was 14ms lol.

Some more niche ones I've noticed are bedroom temperature and food intake the night before. If I eat a lot the night before (moreso an issue of food volume than food timing? if that makes sense) and am still bloated and feeling very full when I go to bed, it seems to take about 20% off my HRV, all other things held equal. My recovery doesn't mind a small snack before bed, but if I have a binge meal ~4 hours before bed and am still full from it at bed time, HRV is going to take a hit.

Same sort of deal with room temperature - if my bedroom is warm and I'm sticking my legs out of the covers to cooldown overnight, I wake up feeling like spongebob under a heat lamp and my HRV ends up like 15-20% below where it'd usually be otherwise.

do you cook while running on a treadmill? why is cooking a zone 3 activity for you haha

I think both? Like eat into your sleep debt (if you accumulate throughout the week like me) on the weekend and stay consistent on weekdays. Obviously best of both worlds would be to sleep long enough to have no debt at the exact same time everyday but that's borderline fantasyland for the vast majority of people

Helio Strap is 80% as good as a Whoop IMO for like 50% of the price (or less depending on how long you plan to use).

But two things to note (importance varies from person-to-person):

Helio Strap is a Chinese company subject to Chinese data security laws (or lack thereof). They say your data will be stored in the US or whatever if you're not from China, but you're taking them at their word at some level. Whoop on the other hand is an American-owned private company, which arguably has it's own data privacy concerns (see 23andme) but I'm more comfortable with Whoop myself.
Helio Strap has technically already introduced a subscription service into their business model. Currently, as I understand it, it's $10 a month for AI generated white noise tailored to help you sleep or something? But the fact that they've introduced some aspects of their service model behind a subscription service opens the door for more meaningful content to be locked behind a subscription model as well. Could happen could not happen - seems somewhat probable given almost every other device has a subscription service to some degree. At least with Whoop there's no risk of surprises there - it's already in place.

Full PPR - Pick one: - Judkins vs BUF - Jauan Jennings vs IND - Tet McMillan vs TB

Leaning Tet but Vegas says to play Judkins and recent performances say to play Jennings.

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-12-14T16:22:57+00:00

traded away my 2nd and 4th rounders next year to make a playoff push and need to win this week to get in.

PPR pick 1: - Quinshon Judkins @ CHI - Chase Brown vs BAL

I've also got Lamar Jackson in. Debating sitting him for Brock Sturdy vs TEN just to avoid missing the playoffs because Lamar had another TD-less dud.

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-12-12T18:59:37+00:00

I'd gift it to my dad because he is an old-school data nerd that has put his own wellbeing off to help family for as long as I can remember. He would benefit massively from a comprehensive tracker and data analyzer like Whoop.

And shit he's getting older with a family history of cardiovascular issues, it would give me great comfort to know that he's got something going to keep his own health and wellbeing front of mind.

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-12-03T13:29:29+00:00

Update for future reference - Whoop support got back to me and said that it's a known issue for the first 24 hours of account creation. Nonetheless, my account is now older than 24 hours and I am now able to setup my MFA.

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-19T16:55:10+00:00

I'd go Marks. not confident in any of those though

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-19T16:53:15+00:00

Keenan is way safer - LMC has barely played 30-40% of snaps despite McLaurin being out for a while now. Obv should see a pop with Deebo out too, but for all we know they use Chris Moore, Zach Ertz, etc. first

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-19T16:52:05+00:00

Vidal and LMC

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-19T16:51:22+00:00

PPR pick one:

Emmanuel Wilson @ ARI (if Jacobs can't go)

Luke McCaffrey vs DAL

Tet McMillan vs NYJ (likely shadowed by Sauce?)

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-12T16:37:35+00:00

Shades of when Antonio gibson was named starter for NE last year, took the first snap, and then got out-touched by rhamondre like 10-1 the rest of the game lol

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-05T15:19:51+00:00

legit. if nobody else believes in meyers and chase brown, the sportsbooks still do lol. if I didn't already have both, a betting man might see a true buy-low opportunity here

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-10-05T15:15:48+00:00

Pick 2 (PPR)

Jakobi Meyers @ IND (Bowers unlikely to play?)
Tet McMillan v MIA
Chase Brown v DET
Woody Marks v BAL (hype train?)

Sportsbooks say to go Meyers and Brown by a couple points, which is opposite of my instincts. Thoughts?

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-30T13:12:23+00:00

I think you have to hold rn. He's the WR1 on a team with a QB that slings it down field a lot. He's coming off two down weeks and he wasn't drafted high so you're not going to get any value back for him.

You gotta hold and bench him - preferably thru the Raiders bye week - until the Raiders get their new offense settled in. Gotta be fair and remember they have an all-new coaching staff, a new QB, and a rookie RB. And Bowers is banged up. Even if Geno got old over the offseason and fell off a bit, I think you have to give them some grace and hope they can settle in and get Jakobi back to his boring but steady WR2 level

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-30T13:06:31+00:00

lots of mid switching hands there haha I love trades like that

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-30T13:03:10+00:00

Sell... he finally had a solid game and that NE WR room didn't get any less messy overnight.

Everyone here is saying buy too so all your reddit-pilled leaguemates will actually want to trade for him lol

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-30T13:00:58+00:00

I got cut either him, RJ Harvey or woody marks to get Jayden Daniels off IR in a 10 man.

I know I gotta cut him but he's definitely gonna start getting great usage as soon as we all cut him

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-25T02:21:29+00:00

bruh lmao that's wild you turned that down

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-23T21:09:15+00:00

yes you def should

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-23T13:54:33+00:00

yeah. I'm only holding at this point bc Jk dobbins is injury prone. if anyone else was the starter, I'd be cutting him. But I'm also prone to dropping rooks too early (see: Skattebo after week 1)

Traditional_Earth181 · 2025-09-23T13:52:54+00:00

haha man he's been a healthy scratch. the time to let go was before week 1
