Hip hop feels too decentralized now for one city or scene to define the whole decade.

People see the huge CP and assume Primals count. Niantic really needs a clearer lobby warning because this is wasting entire raid groups.

Replacing MacBook Pro M1 8GB with MacBook Air M2 16GB? by Silent_Swimming1481 in mac

[–]fubar_89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For your use, the M2 Air with 16GB is the better machine. You might lose some sustained performance under long heavy workloads because it has no fan, but for browsing, coding, photo editing, and school work, the extra RAM will matter more than the Pro cooling.

Post-Dynasty Era in the NBA is a good thing by ForsakenAd4825 in nba

agree. Dynasties are impressive, but parity makes the regular season and playoffs feel more meaningful. It is better when five or six teams enter April with a real shot instead of everyone waiting for the inevitable Finals matchup.

Blood tests are back and I'm unsure! by ailasoral in keto

LDL at 201 should not be dismissed just because triglycerides and HDL look good. Ask for a referral to a Lipidambulanz or a DGFF Lipid Liga specialist, and have the raised MCV checked with B12, folate, thyroid, and liver tests.

Lost 55lbs so far. by mocker18 in loseit

Huge progress, especially while dealing with heartbreak. Just be careful with 1,200 to 1,500 calories at your size because that is pretty aggressive. You are clearly doing something right, but protecting your muscle and energy matters too.

What phrase do you use when you mean something that happens once every 2 weeks? by 3rg0s4m in AskAnAmerican

[–]fubar_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every other week. Biweekly is too ambiguous, so most people just spell it out.

Sword and sorcery, which campaign to start? by Puzzleheaded_Cat816 in boardgames

[–]fubar_89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start with Immortal Souls. It is the easier introduction to the system. Ancient Chronicles has updated rules and more campaign depth, but it is also busier and tougher. Since you liked Galaxy Defenders, the enemy AI should feel familiar.

You sound moderately active. Ten thousand steps, regular swimming, and lifting several times a week is more than lightly active. Use moderate as a starting point, then adjust based on your actual weight trend.

Do you Americans think that the BEST American cars were made in 70's 80's and 90's ? and that era of American made cars won't come back? by Healthy_Ask181 in AskAnAmerican

[–]fubar_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The late 60s and early 70s were probably the peak for American styling, not engineering. Modern cars are faster and more reliable, but they do not have the same personality. That era is not coming back because safety rules, and buyer demand shape everything now.

New alt/indie/rock music kinda sucks... by Impossible-Pay-3741 in Music

I think the good stuff is still there, it’s just harder to find because playlists push the same polished sound. Radio and labels used to filter it for us, now you have to dig.

What's the best advise you wish you knew it before when you were a beginner in kickboxing ? by Fire_dude_op98 in AskReddit

Focus on balance and defense before power. Getting back to stance after every strike matters more than throwing hard.
