United States. I wear some athleisure… So Prana and Patagonia. There’s also Free People, American Giant,
I think e-bikes are great especially if it gets you out riding. That’s what really matters. What will get you to ride and look forward to it? You still get exercise from ebikes as well as you can just turn down or even off the assist while riding.
Twisted Metal on Peacock. Its just fun and I am impressed with the characters and story they are able to build out of a battle royale game with cars and guns lmao
Elextrato Books@lemmy.world•Who else has a book waiting on the (literal or metaphorical) shelf because you dread tackling it?3·8 天前Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese. I finally put it down after trying to read it… But I may get the audiobook sometime to see if that helps
Its a thick book and beautifully written but I felt like it was slog.
Agreed! This is how i watch too. Last two times I’ve gone to theatres was for both Dune movies. Otherwise, its just home.
Very true for both audio and sound. There are just films made by specifically for large formats and higher quality set ups.
Its great that you have headphones OP as it’s a step. If you still enjoy what you’re seeing, that’s all that really matters IMO. Not everyone is privileged to have a nice home system set up which is I think why theatres are still a thing.
More information on sounds and subtitles that I watched a few weeks ago. I also watched a video on TV modes and the differences of visual on theatre vs TV vs mobile but can’t recall the video.
Audiobook: Pachinko by Min Jin Lee.
Regular reading: Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin. I think its just okay so far but I’m not really that big on fantasy. Its for a book club. I know others love it.
Reading the thread. Most of you guys are not THAT short lol. I actually married my guy who is 5’1". He has a nice smile, funny and smart.
He has told me unfortunately that he has often been declined often by women due to his height. We have asked our mutual friends who said they won’t date someone who is that short which is unfortunate because they all love him too.
He’s pretty confident, professional, so people from work finally meet him in person, they are surprised he is not taller.
Elextrato News@lemmy.world•Couple had Uber deliver Narcan instead of calling 911 when baby died from an overdose3·27 天前I think its more this as well. Also, Medicaid, which they likely had, and their children definitely had, would cover ambulance.
This was what I was thinking and feeling. Other grocery stores in other countries did not feel like they had as much variety
My eggroll Asian cookies were the most obvious. They were like $6 or $7 a box (damn inflation). Now they are $16. Damn those tariffs

I figured it was cheaper to sign up for GeForce Now and use my old computer than to upgrade my whole system from a 970 (10ish years old?!?)
So I still have nice graphics. GeForce Now also has a lot of games but I wish there were more.
Elextrato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Nvidia CEO says Trump's tariff plan is 'utterly visionary'English14·1 个月前Not sure how it happened but Nvidia CEO and AMD CEO are cousins. . However, he still made these direct statements. I would still take AMD.
Elextrato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Self-Driving Tesla Fails School Bus Test, Hitting Child-Size Dummies… Meanwhile, Robo-Taxis Hit the Road in 2 Weeks.English27·1 个月前Live in San Francisco and I am impressed with the Waymos. There’s a lot of four way stops and lots of pedestrians. They honestly drive better than most people. There’s a lot of times too where a car pulls up alongside another row of cars paralleled parked on the street and turns on their emergency lights to make a delivery or something. Waymos somehow check other side of the road and proceed around these cars going into the other side of the street safely.
Check out FitnessBlender.com. All home exercises and all free. However, for myself I found that I needed more structure so I bought a few plans like for $10 even though their videos are free. The scheduling kept me more accountable
Elextrato World News@lemmy.world•Mom sues after learning her missing son was adopted out of South KoreaEnglish11·1 个月前TIL for me. One of my distant Uncles was adopted from South Korea during 1980s to America. Wow.
Elextrato [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What did your engagement ring cost, married/engaged people?English7·1 个月前About 9k. Its my wedding ring and engagement ring. I only have one ring. My husband and I chose it out together, lab grown, custom and the ring I anticipate to wear for my whole life. We are fortunate enough to afford it.

Twice a month or every 2 weeks or so for my little pup. I hold him belly up, cradling him on my lap and chest, feet up in air while my husband trims. It has been working and hes very good with that.
