Jordi blackpilling on the new Ferrari EV: "It's basically proving that Ferrari will never be competitive in EVs. It's completely over." "If they had been able to come in at the low $300s with this, we would have been seeing these all over LA." "It's the most confusing release from a major automotive manufacturer that I can ever remember." "Am I crazy? This costs more than the Purosangue, 12Cilindri, and Testarossa... How do you justify the price? It makes no sense." "The gap between what you can get in range and performance from Tesla and BYD, in the $50k-$60k range — it's a 10x price difference compared to the Luce. That gap is just way too wide."

Not on GLP-1s, but restaurants are genuinely too expensive and feel like a scam. I'm exhausted with food. I would sign up for a service called Hot Slop. Hot potato, cabbage, and chicken breast served to my door every evening.

Why are you as a man, using straps on your 245 x 5 deadlift when you could just learn to use a hook grip and deal with some thumb pressure for 30 seconds?

I have entirely lost track of the multitudes of such cases I've seen online. Similarly “lol if I wanted to be a fat powerlifter and just focus on the Big 3 maybe I’d do starting strength but I actually want to look good” The Bro Science idea of look at what something produces in the real world is important and has a lot of merit but it's applied absurdly superfically by ~99% of its adherents. Put aside the "Big 3" and "5x5" stuff that shows the person never read the book or did the actual program. What about the fat part? Well, it's broadly true that the average person doing SS and PPST programming isn't as lean as the average aesthetics focused bro. That's not because their training is ineffective or doesn't build muscle. It's because on average, the population who does that kind of programming doesn't care very much about their bodyfat %, beyond not being truly obese (and sometimes even don't care about that, which isn't good but is a separate discussion). The training isn't deficient at building muscle, it doesn't make you look bad. These are absurdly superficial ways to intrepret "what we actually see." What happens to the average Novice who trains for strength for 2-3 years and then cuts to 12% bodyfat compared to the average Novice doing bro-splits who never goes over 12% in the first place? Not the guys blasting gear, but the average guys you see at the gym. The difference in success from the SS training here is massive. This isn't rocket surgery. It's basic second order thinking. But it's too sophisticated for the current conversation in the bro-sphere.
