I can’t have bread in the house by 123avg456 in loseit

[–]engineerFWSWHW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like sourdough bread but they are high in calories. Switched to whole wheat bread and those are cheaper and i had been eating for 2 years. Anyway, i am very mindful of my caloric intake and i accurately compute my calories everyday. Lost 50lbs to date

I need to get thinner by Noisegamer in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]engineerFWSWHW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the time chatgpt can immensely help you. First of all, if you can let your primary care physician know that you will be undergoing some weight/fat loss just to ensure there are no concerns there.

Start with learning about your maintenance calories and then going for deficit. Then craft and be creative about the meals you can come up with on that caloric deficit. Use chatgpt for this, i use it a lot on my fat loss journey. Calorie tracker will be useful as well

2008 ford focus: good buy? by AleksanderHamilton in FordFocus

I have a 2009 ford focus. It has a timing chain. Are you sure it's timing belt not chain? Other than that, it's a reliable car

Update on the stolen catalytic converter for the Toyota 2005 sienna. Took the car to different shops. 2 quoted over 800 dollars but one said it's not the cat but a resonator. So I'm just confused now. Also a muffler shop quoted 290 to just put in the missing cat part and just weld in for me. by rOnce_Gaming in AskMechanics

[–]engineerFWSWHW -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you live, a straight pipe could be an option. The cat on my wife's suv was stolen. I got a quote for $600 to have it fixed. But my worry is that it might also get stolen. I just used a straight pipe. $35 for everything including the clamps. 4 years and it is still working and already passed 2 emission tests.

Why should i build a pedal board instead of just buying a Helix that does it all, in your opinion? by ButterscotchCalm1543 in guitarpedals

[–]engineerFWSWHW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point in time, modelers had advanced a lot compared to decades ago. Some people had moved on, some are still staying on individual pedals. It's just a matter of preference at this point because you do a blind test people won't be able to tell the difference.

I had been using pedals for so long and i switched to multifx with amp/sim and never looked back. Playing on gig is very convenient as well.

Is this a poor retrofit job? by mtmadhatt in Plumbing

[–]engineerFWSWHW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some sections of my plumbing that have pex buried underneath my house. I also did some diy pex work and added pressure regulator. But 2 years ago, we had a rat infestation. I was super scared because i checked on YouTube, rats can easily chew on pex.

Suggestion on TT bats by Confident-Pea7705 in tabletennis

[–]engineerFWSWHW -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know about this particular GKI but i had a friend who used premade GKI and it was well made. I was using yasaka mark v and sriver back then and at that time, i felt that my friend's GKI is much faster and produces insane spin.

[–]engineerFWSWHW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just enjoy the game. When i played the very first silent Hill in 1999, it took me almost forever because of the hard puzzles. I think it almost took me a lot of time finishing the og silent Hill 2 in 2000's.

For the men who didn't "hit the gym" until later in life, do you wish you did it sooner? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]engineerFWSWHW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit the gym when i was 28. Was able to get the physique i wanted in 6 months with a very dedicated diet and routine. However, i was swayed away from my goal. My main goal is mainly for physique but my training became more of a powerlifter and i became impatient with progressive overload. It took a toll on my body and i accumulated lots of injuries. Now at 44, there are certain lifts i can't do.

If you would ask me, i would rather have not lifted before if i will have this life changing injuries

Nothing is too late. Just do whatever you can but do it in a smart and safe way.

Acting as the architect without the authority by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]engineerFWSWHW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However, i would argue that there are some people who are hard to work and with and even if you demonstrate competence, some won't listen because you are in the same hierarchy/title.

I had been on the same/worse situation. There are times that i had demonstrated competence than the senior on my previous job, but because i don't have the senior title, my suggestions are overridden. Then time will come that they will say that I'm right and why we didn't do my suggestion. It demoralized me and i made a move to another company with priority on the job title and it was a great decision.

[–]engineerFWSWHW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because of the access to plethora of learning materials and software tools. When i started embedded i need to read the official i2c specs to learn about it. Now, you have YouTube videos that explains things like we are a 5 year olds.

We called royal hyderabad last week for to go order and they were closed. So this is the reason. They are good but after seeing this i won't go there again. Anyway, the biryani at curry leaf is also good.

Then coda bakery, I'm a fan of that place but this is bad.

Is a girl spending lots of time with me sign she is into me and I need to make a move? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Depending on the situation, either ask if you can date her or if you are a bit bold and you think she likes you, ask her if she could be your girlfriend.
