    Fitness/Diet Accountability Thread

    We have a joker in our skate group, I didn't get his jokes either, not after few days. I just pretend that I did and laugh! Definitely not your fault. There's no way I can know you're joking without the luxury of face-to-face conversation. In some ways, they are better than those gym...

    Struggle with making friends

    Usually from negative experiences with Christians. There's even worse, the children of the devil will know the children of the light even if you keep your faith totally secret.

    Fitness/Diet Accountability Thread

    Sorry, I didn't get the joke, I'm slow minded. 5 kcal / day, I don't do that anymore, it can actually be unhealthy.

    Fitness/Diet Accountability Thread

    5k kcal per day is still insane. I have to burn 3,600 kcal in exercise to do it on top of my 1,400 calories in BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). For me, that's cycling at moderate intensity for at least 4 hours and I've done these long workout sessions many times in the past. It's about the same...

    Struggle with making friends

    You can still "lead" her by example. I personally keep my Christian ways private. I tell people I'm Christian if they ask but I don't pray in public for example or don't let other people see me pray. I don't refer to God nor Jesus when other people are around who may not be Christians nor...

    Fitness/Diet Accountability Thread

    Are you sure about that 57,445 kcal/day?? In order for me to burn 57,445 kcal, I'll have to ride my bicycle or skate 1,305 miles on the mountains with total elevation gain of 95,000 ft or climbing the height of Mt. Everest three times!! Even if I could miraculously skate 1,305 miles with total...

    Fitness/Diet Accountability Thread

    You also said in the same post "Being more active through the day shaves off a few calories. But we're talking small numbers here." I burn 700 to 1000 calories in exercise alone and I exercise 7 days/week. That's no small number. It gave me the idea you're underestimating the role or...

    Struggle with making friends

    If you can resist their influences and be a positive influence in their lives, they can still be your friends . Especially if you have activities you both enjoy doing and they're not making you do bad things, it can work. I hope you're not keeping on warning or advising her about her immoral...

    Struggle with making friends

    I found kindred spirits in inline skating. Most in our group don't talk a lot and are socially awkward. They sound like I do so I can be myself without fear of rejection.

    Struggle with making friends

    I struggle too both making and keeping friends. I'm weird and I look weird, I found some company when I took up the hobby of inline skating. Incredibly, the Holy Spirit told me to take up the hobby. Everyone's weird in the hobby so I seemed to have fit in. Did not significantly improved my...

    IF Ai & droids grow exponentially & cause a post-scarcity world - what are YOU going to do all day?

    Many rich people who make money so easily like they're already living in post-scarcity won't lift a finger to do anything to matter enough to people who needed help. They may donate a bit to charity or sponsor a child or two yet their resources could allow them to rescue thousands from a life...

    IF Ai & droids grow exponentially & cause a post-scarcity world - what are YOU going to do all day?

    My only fear is post-scarcity not happening in our country. Not every country in the world have leaders who aren't malevolent like countries in EU, Canada, etc who actually care for people and not see them revenue-generating cattle. Countries with malevolent leaders will actually see AI as...

    Clue on Katy Perry's space suit sparks claims Blue Origin mission was a 'satanic ritual'

    I sure hope not. I had a dream of this a few years ago. I saw a woman in this dream and she looks like a tan-skinned Katy Perry who came out of a blue-colored spaceship and shook my hands. There's about 20 of them in it all women except for one old black man. The rest of the crew/passengers...

    Clue on Katy Perry's space suit sparks claims Blue Origin mission was a 'satanic ritual'

    Mine's even far worse. I don't think the devil has anything to do with it. I do believe the devil exists but I also believe, if you're looking for something, you will find it.

    Hudson helicopter crash. Probably avoid flying in Bell 206 helicopters

    The increased complexity is compensated for with more frequent maintenance. You pay more for the ability to land and take off anywhere. Assuming the owner follows the maintenance on the dot regardless of the cost, a helicopter is just as safe as airplanes. Some failure modes are indeed...
