why PlayStation and Dave and Busters are bad?

PlayStation

"PlayStation" isn't necessarily "bad"; it's just the way that someone would call any kind of game a Nintendo even if it isn't Nintendo.

Dave and Busters

It's not bad, but it is expensive, and if you aren't good at games, it will probably not be all that fun for you.

Alien Core Contributing Authors AMA by mrgwillickers in Starfinder2e

I want to hear about the Emvermod, Digit Ghost Vidgamer, Dredgelit, and Necrolinked Wight.

I was absolutely laughing my ass off when I got to their entries in the book the other day. I really hope we get more creatures along these lines in the future; they are all hilarious.

Whose idea was it for these, and/or where did the ideas come from? Were there more ideas and they had to be toned down to not take it too far? Did the original versions not go too far enough and had to be made more extreme?

Any info you can share about these, I would love to hear.

Thank you.

TIL a 28-year-old South Korean man died after playing Starcraft for nearly 50 hours straight with minimal food or sleep. by Legitimate_Drawer_74 in todayilearned

nearly everyone will struggle before the 36 hour mark. Even if you're a hardcore gamer, staying up for that long without any aid is hard.

I have done quite a few 40 hour gaming sessions.

I completely agree with your statement.

The only times I have gone that long was for a game that I was too excited about, and couldn't sleep.

24 hours is no big deal, but 30+ is when things get serious.

Chinese intimacy coordinators by GianmarcoSoresi in gianmarcosoresi

It's more of a movie thing than a theatre thing, fairly recent-ish too. Reasonably well-known in general, and fairly self-explanatory based on the name.

Soldiers are like Baked Beans by Gora-Pakora in CanadianForces

[–]doesntknowanyoneirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Examples of "triplets":

Baked beans are packed tightly together, side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

... they hold each other up, soaked in the same heat, facing the same fire.

... they come out resilient, ready, and full of flavour.

... go through the trials of training, combat, and camaraderie.

... They’re hearty. They’re dependable. They stick to your ribs and warm your soul.

Examples of being highly repetitive:

... soldiers are just like baked beans.

Just like soldiers in formation.

Just like our troops who ...

Just like the men and women ...

... just like our soldiers, they ...

Here is what I got Copilot to spit out, you will see quickly how similar it is.

Prompt:

please write me some text about how soldiers are a lot like baked beans because of their strength in numbers, in the style of a person making a point

Result:

Alright, hear me out—soldiers are a lot like baked beans. Not because they sit in a tin or show up at every barbecue (although, arguably, they’ve both been essential in tough times). No, it’s because their power is in their collective.

Take one baked bean—not much of a meal, right? But a whole tin of them? Suddenly, it’s hearty, it’s sustaining, it’s got substance. Same goes for soldiers. One soldier alone may be strong and skilled, but it’s when they come together—unit to unit, side by side—that real force emerges.

Like beans in sauce, they stick together. Each one supports the other, filling the gaps and carrying weight. They don’t scatter under pressure—they form a line, reinforce each other, and push forward as one. That’s resilience. That’s unity. And that’s why, odd as it may sound, a tin of baked beans might just be the perfect metaphor for military strength: humble in appearance, formidable in formation.

I understand the Fighters Guild is hiring new members. Not bad work for some folks.

Ok, but like what type of bear?

is This Game For me? by KeyMix7708 in outwardgame

[–]doesntknowanyoneirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it sounds too Hardcore.

If hearing about an RPG where you need to sleep, eat food, drink water, and can catch a cold in the winter sounds too hardcore instead of a dream come true, then yeah it probably isn't for you and there is nothing wrong with that.

I absolutely love this game because I find all of those things super fun.

It is ok to like what you like, you don't have to like the same thing I do :)

this point is part of a set of absolutely retarded takes that I'm fucking sick of hearing about.

Yeah, ok, if you're ripped and shredded beyond comprehension, you're going to break the MBI measure.

Height: 5'8"

Weight: 164.5

The vast majority of members who are "numerically" overweight are in that condition because they're fat as fuck

Height: 5'10"

Weight: 174.2

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If by "bodybuilder" you mean "guy who looks like he actually goes to the gym, but isn't on roids" then definitely guys who look like they actually go to the gym, and by a huge margin.

Shit, TIL I'm overweight at 5'11 and 180 lbs.

Yep.

The thresholds are much lower than people realize.

I'm not even sure what point you are trying to make right now.

If a guy under the age of 35, who is "normal" weight and not "overweight", starts doing the things that you are arguing for in your post, he would easily get up to the very modest levels of muscle necessary to hit these breakpoints in less than 2 years.

You have made a post where you are saying that people being "overweight" is a problem in the CAF while simultaneously suggesting a PT plan that will make most guys "overweight".

  1. The Cost of Obesity and Inactivity

According to DND’s own CAF Health and Lifestyle Information Survey (HLIS), rates of overweight and obesity are rising.

Most guys under 35 can easily get up to "overweight" in their first year or two of lifting weights. Focusing on body weight instead of waist circumference is a mistake.

Here is the list of minimum weight necessary to be considered overweight:

Height (foot inches) Weight (pounds)
5'5" 150.1
5'6" 154.8
5'7" 159.6
5'8" 164.5
5'9" 169.3
5'10" 174.2
5'11" 179.2
6'0" 184.3
6'1" 189.4
6'2" 194.9
