Similar boat: started working out with a trainer in Feb 2x a week, and 2x on my own. Although having a trainer is a luxury the return has been great and I've never felt better.

Re:Orcas have learned how to drown great white sharks on Friday November 17, 2017 @01:37PM (#15724707)
I think it was common understanding that Great White sightings decline when there are Orcas in the area, but I've never heard of these predatory behaviors just to get some shark livers
There is a Sonos app for iOS, though? But agree using the Spotify app to manage it is pretty lousy but then I just switch to the Sonos app.
It's so good but still so buggy. Very much a love-hate relationship.

It's interesting, however, that Uber is now in fact doing "Uber for food"/"food on demand" with https://ubereats.com.

Happened to me as well.

This is what I thought. Load times were brutal. But I do love Wolfram Alpha.
This is so awesome, just really wish the recipe database was a lot bigger. As much as I love bacon, not sure I want it for 3 meals a day.
Re:Draconian ‘Wi-Fi police' stalk Olympic Games on Friday August 03, 2012 @09:31AM (#4333895)
Why does this bother anyone? They're trying to stop interference with the vast amount of wireless communication tools they have to use from refereeing to planning etc.
I really had big hopes for webOS, it looked very promising when it was announced. Too bad it never made it.
Re:Sparrow acquired by Google on Friday July 20, 2012 @03:44PM (#4272560)
I love how everyone here is complaining but if 90% of you were in that position you probably would have taken the offer.
