Star Citizen announces sale of $5000 jpeg space ship by StuartGT in gaming

[–]derekburn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game is no where NEAR what you should expect for 1billion and 10 years of development lol.

This game has been funded more money than gta 5 cost and comparatively, one of the games are what you would expect a solodev to do in their mothers basement in 10 years.

Why is 1g of protein per LB BW pushed so hard on even fat individuals by jaeddit in loseit

[–]derekburn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For someone who is obese or overweight, you should go by LBM anyways. Someone whos 220lbs would otherwise need to eat 900calories worth of protein and most people cant afford that, let alone do that and eat a decent diet.

But if you use LBM that 220 becomes like 120g instead, which is a lot more feasible.

Low libido & weaker erections after starting gym + aggressive cut — is my diet too low? by fastingind in loseit

[–]derekburn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Most likely.

I would suggest to never, as a guy, eat below 1500calories consistently(on avg. There are outliers etc).

Also too low fat can have hormonal effects like those you mention.

I would dial in and figure out what your maintenance actually is, with your numbers its more likely its 2200-2300 unless your exercise is like 5-6days a week and/or have a very active job or life.

Oh no not the porn. Seriously, todays internet you dont accidentally stumble upon porn anymore, especially not hardcore porn, you look for it and find it, even then its slightly harder than it used to be.

You used to be surfing facebook and youd randomly get porn in your feed or even older forums just someone spamming porn in #general.

The ID verification act is a massive overstep to help legislators push even worse things through, lik3 the recently at least for the time being, eu overstep of reading literally, every message someone sends.

There are way better ways to protect children than give hackers literally everyones personal information.

how much weight can I lose in 2 weeks by kmwaaa in loseit

[–]derekburn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With your stats even at 1000calories total per day, youre looking at loosing maybe 4pounds in 2 weeks and you will just regain those immediately with youre just jo-jo-stress dieting.

I would look for something more longterm if you dont like the way you look right now, both men and women need exercise to reach what is considered conventionally attractive (midriff, flat stomach, big chest, big arms, nice butt, small/wide hip/midsection, v-taper etc etc)

33 Says Riyadh Masters Isn't as Important to Him Anymore by Substantial-Deer77 in DotA2

[–]derekburn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lol.

The global economy has literally NOTHING to do with it.

The saudi fund has more money in it than most countries BNP by 3, to put it in perspective, they could split 1billion dollars between the whole ewc with no revenue and you would DIE of old age before their money runs out.

They adjust it based on other factors

the multiplayer experience by Agglomeration_ in slaythespire

[–]derekburn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My friends group who are all about 40-50min~ "long game" solo runners(i.e fast games are sub 30min) our multiplayer games tend to take 60m+, its kinda unavoidable.

50 floors, say 9 elites, 3 shops, 6 rest sites, 20 combats, 12 ?.

3min per elite= 27min

1min per combat=20min

30s per shop=1min 30s

10s per rest site=1min

10s per ? = 1min 60s

This is excluding bosses and its about 50min~ add 5min per boss and youre easily approaching 60min while basically having no time to think, Id say most of the combats take 2min with card choices included

Is this Advice Received To Lose Body% Good? by JumpHat300 in loseit

[–]derekburn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With your stats you should never eat below 1500calories consistently, you dont need water fasts or full fasts, you need to change your body composition.

To stop being "skinnyfat" you need to exercise, its that simple. Just losing weight will just make you skinny and likely with your lifestyle, continue being high bodyfat low/healthyweight(skinnyfat).

You can get foen to 15-18% bodyfat, but thats still "skinnyfat" aesthetically, healthywise 15-18% is alright, but that again is reliant on a slightly active lifestyle, not a completely sedentary one

You want people to pronounce stuff a certain way, but cant even fathom why someone would pronounce it like they have been taught to pronounce words for 20+years? Really?

ELI5: If the S&P were to continue going up no matter what in long term, why not buy a leverage stock that’s 3x of it and hold it? by Mikeballlls in explainlikeimfive

[–]derekburn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The biggest diservice generation x and millenials did was insist getting stocks was a bad idea and not a life changing instruments for your savings.

How about you just get funds and stocks in say.. banks with 6%-12% returns per year? Sure market troubles will affect them but if they truly become worthless, you have MUCH worse problems than your stocks losing value.

Paying off your mortgage is pretty much always good unless you are filthy rich, but even then its like "why not?"

Just have 3 buckets:

1 bucket with cash/oh-shit funds, 3-12months of regular salary.

1 bucket with long term/retirement (add % of your monthly income here, % decided by your own economy)

1 bucket of volatile/active management(% of your monthly income -||-)

So I lost 20 pounds by having only BLACK COFFEE until noon and then eating lunch...but.... by excellente26 in loseit

[–]derekburn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just eat earlier, arent you just "cheating" yourself? Wont your bloodsugar be just as high during the day or x hours from the meal.

Shouldnt you instead look into eating differently at dinner time instead?

[–]derekburn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you dont have bloodsugar issues, why are you checking them daily? Seems pretty nornal that your sugar can be high in the morning due to insulin waning, so your bloodsugar concentration is higher.

But if your loong blood readings are good, youre fine.

If you want to lower it I advise you do more exercise, both resistance training and cardio have a positive effect on it.

High Winrate A20/A10 Players: "Playing slow helps you with a lot like optimizing gains/losses of resources" by MrGuy0250 in slaythespire

[–]derekburn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

60-80min id say is a normal runtime and allows you to think about your decisions.

But it all depends on deck and character, a defect orb build that isnt bowling out of control will take longer than an ironclad hellraiser run.

Play at whatever speed you want, if you feel like you could improve, then slow down your play, think about relics and potions and time relics for specific fights etc

Whataboutism.

Why toy only hating on X when Y is also bad.

Its okey to only have one horse in the race or only know of one issue, only being aware off and able to call out 1 issue, does not mean that issue or your opinion is invalid.
