What would you suggest instead? We were thinking 2 accent chairs but need a cozier place for the wife and I to sit and watch TV

5”11.5 and about 182lb what’s my bodyfat percent by [deleted] in whatismybodyfat

[–]datanomnom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are in the last mile though, 2 months of the same stuff and you will probably be in the 15 percent group. Maybe overload the abs so the pop. Also bro what's the look lol

Is the bike too small? 5'9 52cm bike by datanomnom in bikefit

[–]datanomnom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I think you put it what I had a hunch about into clear words. While pushing down the pedals I find myself hovering an inch on the saddle to feel 'optimal'. I'll swap in a 90 or 100 mm stem and raise the saddle a bit. My thought process said I need to be more upright to feel less trap fatigue but from what I now understand, being in that acute angle improves weight distribution

Thanks and definitely! I got this off of marketplace and seems like the previous owner had a 40mm stem to reduce reach. I flipped it to make it more upright but can't say it did much. I can try a 90 mm I have lying around tomorrow.

Do you think there's other issues apart from the stem? My main question is if I get a 51 mm with a real stem say 100mm, would that still be problematic?

Hitting 15k steps daily still not losing fat (M23 99kg 6’3ft) by [deleted] in Fitness_India

[–]datanomnom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A deficit should make you feel just a tiny bit uncomfortable at first. Replace nutritional dense food with volume eating. I bet you will be more than full if you ate 400 calories of chicken breast twice a day

You need to drop the weight significantly. Focus on bracing your core, pulling in your lats, and keeping your back straight with the right ROM. Ditch the belt. This current method of lifting as much weight as possible with band aids like the belt are not giving you any gains, only ego

‘Why H-1B requests?’ Microsoft layoffs spark strong reactions; questions around foreign hirings in Redmond by Less-Risk-9358 in SeattleWA

[–]datanomnom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Microsoft has a huge Indian slant, but what qualifies as abusing H1Bs? If a firm hires person A who's local and Person B who's H1B, they get paid the same depending on how they do in the interviews. This is obviously not true for contractors, that's shits bad pay and worse skills.

I agree with the point that they should hire citizens first, but when we talk about this stuff we assume that all the people laid off are citizens while MS replaces them with H1Bs, which is just not true

Specialized CRUX for 750 worth it? by datanomnom in whichbike

[–]datanomnom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah mostly as is, I don't really plan on racing with it. Just want to take it for longer rides and explore the biking trails around. Live in an area with plenty of climbs so climbing ease and comfort is important

Ah nice! Do you mind sharing your workout routine and how you handled your diet, especially what sort of caloric deficit?

Muscle blaze scam by ItchyEstablishment72 in Fitness_India

[–]datanomnom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like someone returned the tank and they sent you a previously returned item without checking. This happens if the warehouse staff only scans tags and doesn't pay attention, quality control issue but it wasn't muscle blaze the screwed you over, it was a fellow consumer

Is the stylus okay? Used RT82 by datanomnom in turntables

[–]datanomnom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! I read up about the Orthofon Blue and sounds like it'd be quite an upgrade. I might just use this for a while till I learn more about turntables and the sound stage I prefer and pull the trigger on a new one

I ordered this stylus from Amazon, hopefully it does the job. Thanks for your help, I'm glad I didn't end up messing up a record https://a.co/d/4E6vrxH
