re: "The Odyssey" Discussion Thread: it's passed D&W for biggest R Rated film $1.35B

I stand by my statement. There is no other way to understand the race interjection in a Greek story.
It's sad actually. I'm a student of history. This is some woke revisionist history. But why though? So you can enjoy loud booms in a theater? There need to be consequences for misrepresentation of historical accounts.

Its not a comeback. Its a fact.
Nolan is controlled by the criteria of wokeness to get his award.
Its sad he tainted one of the oldest tales of time to pander to the logically weak.

You don't understand. Why does he have 3 lines and 30 seconds of screen time?
In a Greek mythology/literary epic?
Why?

Spoilers:
Oracle: some black rapper instead of a GoT maester type.
The actual Greek elder recounting Greek history: some Latin dude in makeup that hates whiteys.
Suitor in grand hall that confronts Telemachus: sub-saharan african. Um what?
Cyclops cave: Dedicated camera time on the death of a Greek, I mean sub-saharan african.
Siren song: an asian. Wtf?
I'm not even going to bring up Helen of Detroit or Elliot Paige.
This movie is a sad commentary on the influence of woke in the culture war. Sad.

No thanks. I will judge it with my wallet.
This movie is an injustice to Homer for the sake of a vanity award. I know you don't care, but I do.

Maybe. Just maybe. Christopher nolan wanted to make a good movie and filled it with actors and actresses he likes because he thinks it would make an enjoyable movie and people who can profit off of rage decided to highlight anything they see as “flawed”
Or maybe people want an accurate representation of the foundational piece of art that inspired Alexander the Great to cross the Hellespont. Stop bastardizing history for the sake of DEI requirements of vanity awards.

Fyi the movie is already on the High Seas.
Watched it last night. 6/10. Would not watch again. I'd actually go see it in a theater if it wasn't so obnoxiously woke. Literally rolled my eyes multiple times for the race interjection in the first act alone. Embarrassingly ridiculous and ruins the immersion. Won't get my money. Should have focused more on the gods/mythology. I feel like a high school English lit project could have told the story better.

re: Joro spider
Posted by pressurized on 7/16/26 at 7:51 am to RealDawg
I have a bunch in my backyard. Their webs are impressive. Last year there was a web about 30' across my street up in the trees. I have a bunch of birds around, but they don't seem to eat them. I'll knock down webs around the pool, and a couple days later they pop right back up. I absolutely hate spiders, but I have to respect these asian frickers.
re: NAD craze is climbing. Can you test for those levels?
Posted by pressurized on 6/12/25 at 4:03 pm to plaric
Per ChatGPT (I have not checked the sources):
I'm holding off on it until more research, but following this thread.
quote:
The Basics:
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is critical for mitochondrial function, energy production, and DNA repair. Think of it as cellular fuel for cleanup and longevity processes (like sirtuin activation).
With age, NAD+ levels tank. Supplements aim to raise it.
quote:
Pros & Cons:
Compound Pros Cons
NAD+ Direct delivery Poor oral bioavailability
NMN Well-studied, effective Regulatory grey area (FDA cracked down on it as a “drug”)
NR Clean supply chain, patented, GRAS status May be less effective in muscle/brain
NMNH Promising speed & redox benefits Little to no human research, redox concerns
Final Skeptical Thought:
Boosting NAD+ indiscriminately is not a silver bullet. If the mitochondria are damaged or overloaded (e.g., by toxins, chronic stress, or poor sleep), you're just throwing more workers into a broken factory.
I'm holding off on it until more research, but following this thread.

Posted by pressurized on 6/12/25 at 12:31 pm to Blutarsky
I researched it after hearing about it on a podcast. ChatGPT told me NAD was not very bioavailable other than IV. NMNH is a precursor to NAD (similar to NAC -> glutathione, which I'm a big fan of), and seems to be more bioavailable than NAD and has flooded the NAD market on Amazon, but there isn't enough research on it, according to AI. I don't have the time to dig into it myself, but does seem to be the new health influencer craze.
re: Please recommend a good but inexpensive exercise tracker
Posted by pressurized on 5/27/25 at 10:59 am to alajones
I haven't used the Inspire 2 or any other tracker for that matter, but the Inspire 3 had been great for me. I'm not a watch guy, or any accessories really, but this has been a great fitness tracker for me. It's a low profile band that gets phone notifications which is all I need. I found I've been leaving my phone behind around the house instead of checking for missed calls/texts so often, which is an added bonus. I think it was $75 on sale.
7+ day battery life. The app works great. Tracks GPS off your phone, otherwise the Charge model has built in, but wider band style. Plenty of band options on Amazon. I got a stretch band and I just slide it off before getting into the sauna to top off the charge every so often, otherwise I just check the app in the morning for sleep score, and usually at night to review metrics. I think Garmin and Samsung have something similar, but haven't needed to look in the last year.

talking with a friend of mine yesterday and he's just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes -- any information about doing carnivore in his situation?
Tell him to read Casey Means book Good Energy. The carnivore diet should help him regulate his blood sugar and hormone levels, but she makes the argument for fiber to improve the gut microbiome. The good news is type 2 diabetes is completely treatable, and even preventable.
re: Have any of you tried the Carnivore Diet ?
Posted by pressurized on 10/13/24 at 12:29 pm to Norway
Yes. Basically an elimination diet. I've since added dairy, fruit, and some vegetables. I do take vitamins/supplements as insurance.
I've never felt better.

re: Gary Brecka and genetic methylation a scam?
Posted by pressurized on 1/18/24 at 8:13 am to thadcastle
I listened to the podcast too and looked into it.
An independent lab testing company like Any Lab Test Now, etc., will cost around $250 for the test.
I ended up ordering methylated folate droppers on Amazon. I haven't noticed a difference. I'll finish up the bottle and see how I feel, and how I feel when I stop.
I kind of get a snake oil salesman vibe from Gary. He's supposed to come back on Rogan to go over Joe's results. We'll see. I'm not sold on the grounding mat, but there seems to be some science to the red light therapy.
