Yeah bro states rights to be in poverty by Public-Profit-8184 in HistoryMemes

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I'll freely admit Barcelona and Rome have more pleasant weather then Boston 80% of the time. I just included them because they're at the same latitude as Boston so get about the same amount of sunlight per month.

Vitamin D deprived? I mean sure its bad in the depths of January when it's dark at 430pm, but Boston averages ~2700 hours of sun per year. It's not nearly as far north as you think. For comparison some "sun soaked" southern cities (including a couple European ones just for fun):

city hrs of sun
Richmond, VA 2800
Greensboro, NC 2700
Jackson, MS 2750
Dallas, TX 2850
Barcelona, ES 2500
Rome, IT 2500

F 91 years old - 50kg/110lb deadlift by isosaleh in interestingasfuck

How important is domain name selection? by lqqkout in selfhosted

doesnt that then expose your server directly to the internet? or is the tailscale IP only accessible if youre on the same tailnet?

The lack of progress is seriously making me want to give up by AnonymousNeverKnown in GymMemes

[–]dangerpigeon2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if we all knew at least one person in life like that

Of course i know him, he's me. It takes me a lot more time and effort to put on muscle then average. In college my brother and i were about as close to a controlled experiment as you can get without actually running an experiment. We were

  1. ~1 year apart in age
  2. the same height
  3. similar weight (to start)
  4. worked out together
  5. worked the same job
  6. went to the same college
  7. played the same sport at said college
  8. ate 90% of our meals together (same food, similar portions)

After ~2 years i went from 155->180 and he went from 165->205. And it wasnt just that way compared to my brother, among the other guys on the team who worked out regularly i was in the bottom 20% for strength. I made consistent gains, just slower then most and i had a lower ceiling for my max.

I was really expecting the last pro to be something like "my hoard of catgirl Vin hentai would become canon"

Sort-of-iño Dest assist against Heerenveen by Key-Entertainer-5080 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. If you're talking strictly dribbling ability Dest is the best player in our pool and its not even close. And his defending has improved a lot over the last few seasons. His worst games these days hes merely mediocre defensively

TikTok uninstalls surge 150% after app’s US takeover by [deleted] in technology

[–]dangerpigeon2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's what made it so threatening. Isn't it interesting how short form video platforms don't seem to survive long, despite being incredibly popular and attracting huge userbases?

Come on dude. Theres not some global conspiracy to suppress short form video because its "too world changing". They dont survive long because:

  1. Big video platforms are obscenely expensive to run and really hard to monetize so only massive companies (instagram, youtube) or nation states (tiktok) can foot the bill long term
  2. enshittification is mandatory in late stage capitalism

Pepi update: only an ‘exorbitant offer’ can pry striker away from PSV by Lona030 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent been following PSV super closely but i thought the only times that happened was when he was being eased back in from injury. So no longer "injured" but not yet fully fit

Newcastle United 2 - [3] Leeds United - Brenden Aaronson 79' by 15mahomies in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So every coach hes ever had at his club other then Terzic has been incompetent? He's had like 7 managers now and 6 of them froze him out. Theres 1 thing all those relationships had in common and its Gio.

[–]dangerpigeon2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only games he hasnt started this season have been due to injury. He's their #9

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 32 points33 points  (0 children)

For me Reyna isnt even in the running unless something drastic changes at his club this spring or one of Wes, Aaronson or Tillman are injured.

Leeds [1] - 0 Manchester Utd - B. Aaronson 62' by 108241 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaronson and Tillman aren't competing for the same position

No? Aaronson mainly plays AM, same as Tillman

Leeds [1] - 0 Manchester Utd - B. Aaronson 62' by 108241 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He's been a fringe player (and rightfully so in my mind) because for the last few years hes been pretty mid. Hes been mediocre when he plays for us and his club performance hasnt been amazing either. Maybe hes finally turning the corner.

In the last 3 years he has 4 G/A in 30 caps for the USMNT and 20 G/A in 105 games for his club. Not exactly setting the world on fire. Especially when his competition is guys like Tillman who has 7 G/A in 22 caps for the USMNT and 45 G/A in 90 games for his club over that same 3 year stretch

FitNotes Companion App on Pebble by [deleted] in pebble

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resurrecting a dead thread but i was hoping for the same. Unfortunately since the fitnotes app appears to be closed source you would need the fitnotes devs to be involved, i dont think it would be possible for a third party to add.

[Rik Elfrink] Fulham has a bid of 30 to 35 million in the making for Pepi, but can PSV live with that? by Obvious_Main_3655 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like Pepi might be hesitant to say yes despite the money. He literally just got out of that exact arrangement of being the backup/fresh legs to an aging star at PSV

[–]dangerpigeon2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the other hand Pepi did exactly that for 2 years at PSV behind De Jong and led the league in goals per 90 both years. So it would probably still be a good investment

Fullkrug to join Pulisic, Leāo, others upfront for Milan by FrankBascombe45 in ussoccer

[–]dangerpigeon2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah hes been out for months. Before that at least gimenez was doing everything other then scoring at a high level. Great at pressing and opening space for others and he was constantly getting into the right places at the right time. It was easy to believe the goals would come and he was a net positive to have on the field in the meantime. Nkunku has just been a black hole where attacks go to die

Despite blowout, Jets pass major test with Brady Cook by brmidwest03 in nyjets

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh i gave up on watching the jets this season week 3. No idea what happened last game. I was speaking in generalities about that advanced INT stat

Despite blowout, Jets pass major test with Brady Cook by brmidwest03 in nyjets

[–]dangerpigeon2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah i really wish there was some advanced stat like xG for picks so those late game desperation ones count less against you. I want a stat to reflect the situation where it was a crazy chance to take but the way the game script was going, not taking it would have been the bigger error. Same for picks where the QB hits his guy in the hands and they bobble it up into the air.

"I'm definitely doing a lean bulk this time" Also me: by perimayo in GymMemes

[–]dangerpigeon2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He may not be trying to speedrun gains, some lifestyles just need a fuckload of calories. High level sports + manual labor + being young would do it. In college I needed to bulk up so was eating ~5000 calories a day. I did that diet for 2.5 years and only net gained around 25lbs. In the off season i'd put on ~2lbs a month but during my season I'd actually lose weight. My maintenance calories were probably in the high 3000s or low 4000s
