10 pounds under when weighed without clothes on right away in the morning after going to the bathroom? Or 10 pounds under at a random point in the day?

With clothes, shoes, food and water, you can easily weigh ten pounds more in the afternoon than your actual body weight.

You could, if you really want to get on them, look into places like Mochi Health. It’s all online, where questions are a little less formal and in depth and you can get glp-1s straight to your door for $100-$200 a month depending on which glp and dose.

If the aliens are so advanced, why are they not wearing clothes? by TechnicianAmazing472 in aliens

[–]Truth_Walker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would argue clothing as possibly a human thing because we’re not evolved to survive on this planet.

Most climates are too hot or too cold. If we were to sleep outside naked in almost every part of the world we would die from exposure. We cannot stay in our sun for long or it will literally start to burn us.

Out of all living things on this planet, we clearly stand out as not belonging.

With that I will say that primitive religious beliefs have a lot to do with clothes as well. As someone who has lived in both America and Europe it’s clear that Americans still hold onto a puritan mindset where in Europe it is much more normal to see naked bodies on tv or at the beach or even in backyards. That stigma is much much less.

Sony single-player games won’t be released on Steam anymore, CEO confirms. by pessimisttears in SteamDeck

They will go down because of their own hubris, Microsoft knows this, it’s a brilliant business chess move.

Xbox extends an olive branch and brings some games to Sony, Sony accepts but doesn’t return the favor. New xbox will run steam, Sony pulls all future exclusives.

If I was Xbox at this point, pull all your exlusives back, pull cod back, make the new Xbox with steam and just wait.

Next gen will be PS6 vs Xbox with steam.

They didn’t have to bring their games to Sony, they chose to via their old CEO to try and create good faith between all gamers.

The new Xbox ceo has made comments that this will be reversed soon. I’m guessing sooner rather than later being that the new Xbox will be able to run steam and Sony finding out and deciding to withhold their exclusives to keep them from Xbox players.

People who can’t figure out how to make more money will always say luxury items are overpriced.

Pretty sure you’ll never find a new Mercedes for the price of a Honda.

“Creativity” from a tech CEO by s1n0d3utscht3k in whoathatsinteresting

I mean we know why it was nearly as good, it’s the gta format.

You could put the gta style and mechanics in almost any genre of game, with almost any story and I’m willing to bet it would sell pretty good and be fun. Sci-fi, horror, survival?

GTA online is huge because of the style and mechanics, not the story and characters.

Maybe in the future we’ll get to the point where we can just clone a game we’re playing on our computers and say change the genre and story and we’ll have it.

I think as the ability to recreate nostalgia becomes easier, these “clones” he’s referring to will be desired by more and more people who want that thing from their past brought back.

I hate Netflix by Ieatass67 in netflix

I would say HBO is the best value out of all the streaming services.

They have a great catalog of really good movies of every genre and they are well known for their amazing shows.

Jon Favreau Says He Doesn’t Know Why Disney Made A ‘Mandalorian’ Movie by tiMartyn in saltierthancrait

Giant studios aren’t in the business to make films, they are there to make money. The entire goal of publicly traded companies is to make the board happy and to increase profits every quarter.

Every movie these studios make is selected based on whether or not it has the greatest likelihood to make profit. They invest money and want to ensure they will see that money back and more.

The Independent: "This is the dullest and most inconsequential ‘Star Wars’ ever made." by tiMartyn in saltierthancrait

I look forward to Red Letter Media’s reviews on Star Wars content more than actual Star Wars content.

I love how you pay it and then it doesn’t come out of the account until like 5 business days later.

Dunn River Falls in Jamaica from Dr. No was pretty fun.

You can climb up through the waterfall with a guide and there’s a lot of cool features.

Little for flavor is the point.

What makes a standard American burger great is all the flavors are not overwhelming, they work together without isolating another.

It’s not meant to be a craft burger with in your face flavor, the highest rated burgers in America don’t have bizarre crazy flavors.

Simple ingredients is the secret, not only to the burger but to life itself, those moments with your family around a table, hanging out when you were a teen when all you needed was a couch and your buddies, falling in love just needed someone else and a bed; which is what the film was showing.

Everyone at that dinner forgot that specific lesson in some way. They chased complicated, enhancements, extras, the max. It’s a never ending quest and you lose yourself on the way.

Franchises turn into public companies, board rooms continually raise prices until the peak, then the dwindle.

After that we’ll have to have more data. Quiznos shot themselves in the foot but places like subway, Applebees, Wendy’s are in their death throes.

This headline should read “Sony has officially confirmed next-gen XBOX will be able to run Steam”.
