Personally would argue these guys do this same sprint/distance so many times in practice/competition that they generally implicitly know when they're running a WR type time and generally don't slack off (in this video he's not in any threat of being caught but still presses on for the WR).
Please help me with this logic because there's absolutely nothing funny about this film which is arguably one of the most disturbing ever made.
So tenants can and do have cars, they just can’t drive/park them next to their units. And the apartments are mixed use w/ commercial stores…but that’s not really novel either.
They do get discounts on ride shares, a free e-bike, and do have a walkable complex that’s safer for families and kids so it does seem like improvement overall.
It's also available in pill form of course but that quickly gets expensive.
But for "the rest of us" yes...maybe the closest thing to a consensus out there is if you're sensitive to DHT and have experienced hair loss (common male pattern baldness) creatine could possibly impact you. The effect isn't even universally acknowledged to exist so it seems safe to assume it's minor enough that if you're treating DHT hair loss (finasteride) already it wouldn't impact you.
As western society skews older and resistance training becomes even more common as a means to combat the effects of aging, I wonder if more people will adopt creatine as an essential supplement? Combined with weight training, the benefits seem easily worth the relatively low costs (creatine is about as cheap as supplements get). It's very beneficial for older adults: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21394604/
Anecdotally, both my parents are in their 70s and I've finally managed to get them to take creatine (along with regular resistance training in the gym)...the results are really incredible. Both have noticeably improved their functional strength and my mom in particular has had a bit of a transformation. A lot of women don't like creatine (water bloat is generally a much bigger drawback for women than men) but at my mom's age she doesn't care and has really taken to it.
Haven't even considered mental benefits of their training frankly but in retrospect it seems obvious as well.
If you have elderly people in your life: encourage them to take up resistance training...the benefits are undeniable. And just as a bit of lagniappe once you do that, you might also convince them to try creatine.
Agree though it should have home country as the default (but also still show other countries in case your home country isn't streaming).
Yet when I enter my car and CarPlay starts for some reason maybe 50% of the time (not all of the time even) it randomly decides to play the last song I streamed in Apple Music 2-3 years ago. WTF Apple?
Older folks like myself (GenX) learned the "classic" way...face to face. There were checks and balances. If you said something that skewed hostile you found out it could have immediate direct negative consequences. It could literally leave a mark.
Similarly if you went too far some other way...you found out immediately and directly how that could work out (we were just as cringy...we just didn't have it preserved digitally for prosperity).
Kids today (even writing that makes me wince) have less accountability for what they write than what we had to have for what we said. Also due to scale the effects are amplified. And also you are in a digital bubble that allows you to ignore anything that isn't positive. If you piss someone off by what you said so what? You'll never interact with them directly and there will be 1000s who agree w/ and encourage you.
Also old man shouts at clouds.
I think you'll find the pacing much improved.
What about Kevin Smith with Clerks? Yes he got the IP and ostensibly the $/career but he's also brought basically everyone involved in that film with him along for his ride and continues to give them work in sequels/podcasts/tv shows etc.
It can be done ethically but to your point it doesn't seem to often be the case.
You'll also find westerners accustomed to air-conditioning who live there and have "adjusted".
It takes about 2 weeks and your body makes some sort of adjustment.
It's an interesting phenomenon that maybe someone here can comment on more fully. By that I mean what exactly is happening to us when we adjust? Is it purely psychological or are there actual biological changes/effects at play? Whatever it is you really do "adjust" and it's not that bad after a few weeks. You even learn to sleep well at night in sweltering heat...again after you adjust.
Of course there are limits but we're built to handle the heat.
Was news to me as a dog owner who allows our dog to do her business in the back yard (but would never allow it on a public walkway/area).
Do want to put out there that this is an abridged version (though don't remember anything significant being left out).
I can vouch for New Orleans at least as they are everywhere right now (there was a discussion on r/NewOrleans just a few days back about this very topic). One thing I learned in that discussion is the same person might call both of them DLLs. That seems impossibly illogical to me but it apparently happens.
It’s not like anything significant has happened transportation-wise to replace driving. If kids don’t want to drive it means they care a lot less about meeting up with other kids.
The point is those face to face interactions don’t seem to be happening the way they used to.
Sex isn’t going to happen if people don’t interact with each other. It’s all symptoms of the same “disease” (which seems to be or be strongly associated to anxiety).
