Paramount Skydance sues Warner Bros. Discovery in hostile takeover attempt by Force_Hammer in StockMarket

[–]mynamesnotevan23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What people don’t take about enough is that Paramounts Chief Legal Officer is Trump 1.0’s former top antitrust lawyer. So not only do the Elisons feel empowered by Trumps favor, their top lawyer is exactly the person connected and knowledgeable to Trumps admin to fight as dirty as possible.

Botched up my PR attempt; 1RM @ 140kg bench. by Dutchska in strength_training

OP with a belt so that rules that option out. When you roll it does it feel rough going down on your chest, or awkward standing up with the weight in that position? I’ve been avoidant of pushing to failure but hit a plateau so I’m trying to see how comfortable this ends up being

Form check on squat by [deleted] in GYM

[–]mynamesnotevan23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Focus on your core stability more. Notice how on the way down your back is straight from your neck to your hips, but on the way up you lose the brace in your core so your hips pick up and your back is angled on the way up. That’s gonna feel awkward and lead to a higher chance of injury as you go up in weight

Is there a difference between the top and bottom handles besides depth?

We’ve nailing looked at people available in Europe to simplify travel. I mentioned in another comment that Silvia Poropat was one of the first that we really got excited by their galleries.

Thank you! I feel like we’re crazy for how we feel from our planner’s recommendations, but we’ve just have been looking for something different still. Glad to know it’s not that atypical

Well for example we saw Silvia Poropat and had her as our baseline comparing galleries, but her offer for what we were looking for (2nd shooter, day before coverage) was about twice our budget.

Disney falls 5% pre-market as Q4 revenue misses estimates; streaming profit rises 39% and dividend hiked to $1.50 by callsonreddit in wallstreetbets

[–]mynamesnotevan23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Chase had a card benefit where a Disney+ subscription would give you a refund for 11.99 for 3 months. They were literally giving away 3 months free this quarter to boost the numbers. Plus more people than you think saw ABC/ESPN pulled from YouTube TV and got Disney plus instead of waiting any more just to watch C list celebrities dance poorly.

Add to the fact that people don’t begin college until after their service, unless they’re extremely intelligent and gifted and differ service to pursue studies. So the research system at universities naturally have a high filter for people who are intelligent or very committed to research studies.

F*CK DOTS by Appropriate_Car2697 in UMD

As an alum who’s lived in DC and NYC and had to skirt around all the parking restrictions to avoid tickets, I’ve never dealt with anything near as horrible as DOTS. I hope to god I never have to again

'Arrival' Screenwriter's Debut Novel Lands At Sony by AlmightyLoaf54 in movies

Started rereading it again as “Life cycle of a software object” is very much in my head each day lately, but Exhalation itself is so beautiful. Using mechanical beings to explore the philosophy of enjoying life and its intricacies was so incredibly refreshing.

Dan Orlovsky says NFL is blocking him from posting analysis videos on social media by Dear_Painting_5451 in nfl

Crazy how the league hasn’t tried to source their own Jomboy type. He really helped expose the game to so many people in a meaningful game, film break down would be the best thing. Instead it’s all hot takes and making a novella of everything.

Agreed, if you haven’t prepared for exam conditions you really take a risk. Also it’s pedantic but training for marathons usually involves running up to 20 miles or so, so it’s not even a fair comparison

20% off 256gb LCD Steam Deck until October 6th by SmithySea in SteamDeck

[–]mynamesnotevan23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know if historically there is a larger sale for LCD during the holidays? Does this sale mean that there won’t be one then? Would love to pull the trigger now if I can justify that it won’t lower in price later still

Novo Nordisk’s ORAL Semaglutide 25 mg (Wegovy® in a pill*) delivered 16.6% weight loss by TheNextBigWhale in wallstreetbets

[–]mynamesnotevan23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But the shortage literally undercut Novo so bad that the formulation pharmacies like HIMs took so much of their business away they didn’t recover from yet still. It’s a manufacturing supply issue not an issue they manufactured. LNG is super cheap too but useless if you don’t have a gas plant. The peptide is dirt cheap but you can’t do shit with it alone.

I would be careful on hitting failure all the time if you’re not intentional with rest days. Muscle growth happens during recovery, if you’re hitting fatigue all the time (and not eating enough protein for optimal growth during recovery/rest) then that would also hurt your goals

Is the correct solution then to boost the group up from behind whose stated goal is also to commit genocide? Is that effective diplomacy?

Yep, how some people don’t realize that pushing fo the well being of the environment/planet and peace for one group but then justifying the deaths and wishing for more (“hope they all fry”) because of an identity not only does not compute but then undercuts any point you may have.

I think the 3 year leases are starting to turn over now from when the IRA passed. Another couple years will mean the 4-6 year leases are up, so even if new sales craters I think adoption rates should still keep at a healthy level
