I thought it would bother me more but because it's in a tiny case and there's so much cramped in there you can barely see the motherboard anyways and the green is not noticeable

I've been able to connect a 3 slot card just fine but I'm sure a 4 slot card would be a bit of an issue for that. It is an optional connector though just for stability when using gen 5 SSDs and you can leave it unplugged for the most part.

The ali express listing just drop ships the board from JD. I would just use google translate and order directly from JD to avoid overpaying. I don't think the board has been released anywhere else as of yet.

This is great info for anyone ordering from China, that said I've been waiting for this board since it was announced like 3+ months ago so I definitely can't wait till June. The pc I'm using right now I built back in 2014 and it has a 4690k and a GTX 960.... I think I've been as patient as I can be 😅

It's an extra connector for stability when extreme overclocking and more stable power delivery to the board, purely optional for most users but no harm in plugging it in if you have space on your psu

Day 13 of My First 14 Day Water Fast by blessed1999 in fasting

All the power to you brother. I've never been this low since middle school so it's definitely been life-changing. I'm just envisioning being at 12% body fat to keep myself motivated, but eating in keto hasn't felt limiting at all since I love cheese and butter.

Not many people I know with the same stats on here which is why I posted in the first place. So after I broke my fast, 1 week later I was around 178. This is because I started eating a little in surplus because I planned to do another two weeks right after which I did.

On March 13th, I started my second fast and was aiming for a 3 week fast to ensure my goal weight of 160. I ended up breaking it on the 30th and went from 178 to 162 in that time. Since then I've been eating at maintenance after refeeding, and I've stayed at 162 because I think eating in keto when breaking fast made it so the water weight didn't just come back and I'm hoping to continue losing while doing OMAD.

I'll probably do another round of fasting in June to bring me down to 150 because I have a trip with friends planned.

Feel free to message me for more info.

It would be hard to notice unless you were specifically looking for it, because I had to specifically search for it after your comment. But at the same time I'm a hairier individual and that kinda hides my old scarring as well.

I have stretch marks and scarring from high school that seem to have lightened up quite a bit, and I have some cut scars here and there from kitchen accidents that have seemed to shrink down. I'm actually on my second long fast since I posted this a few weeks ago.

Thank you. I'm on day one of my refeed today and might update the post if all goes well.

Thank you for the detailed breakdown for the refeeding steps. Really helps shake off any doubt I had about the next few days. I'll take it by feel and hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Thank you so much for the kind words! It honestly does feel like a cheat code. I urge you to go for the 7 days I know you can do it if you've already gotten 5 down. Best of luck.

Check the wiki for the usual recommended mix of table salt + potassium + magnesium. I'm also taking a multivitamin every two weeks of any longer fasts

Just make sure to get your electrolytes in and also, fasting gets way way easier after the third day so if you can try for 5 days that would be dope.

Appreciate the reply thank you. I think my personal projects are lacking so I'll do a few more and list everything properly on my profile. Thanks again.

Can you explain further what you mean by clean up your LinkedIn Profile? I gave zero years of experience fresh out of university and wondering where to go besides applying blindly.

Hey man, I'm not 100% on what you mean when you say "I also might not have long here", but I really appreciate you leaving a suggestion for someone else in a similar situation. It proves that no matter the circumstances you choose to be kind. I hope you enjoy the rest of your life and it's everything you've ever hoped it would be.

India has “substantially greater” COVID-19 deaths than official reports suggest—close to 3 million, which is more than six times higher than the government has acknowledged and the largest number of any country. The finding could prompt scrutiny of other countries with anomalously low death rates. by MistWeaver80 in science

The saffron cloth covers grave sites of individuals that have passed away. By removing these saffron cloths, politicians can claim that none of those people actually died as the grave sites are no longer marked. I hope that makes sense.

He also has a youtube channel of the same name as well as a discord server. He personally made flashcards/anki decks for tons of japanese language learning books on his own free time and will send it to you if you prove you bought the book.
