I was skeptical about magnetic weight resistance before trying a Tonal demo. After trying it in a mall, I was a believer in the technology. After doing a bunch of research on magnetic resistance machines for home, it came down to Tonal and Vitruvian for me. I ended up going with Vitruvian for these reasons: Vitruvian can support max lift of 440lbs vs Tonal’s max of ~200lbs Tonal has to be professionally mounted to wall studs. Vitruvian sits on the floor and requires no install. Vitruvian weighs 65lbs, and has two wheels to easily lift and roll it around Tonal seems to have better software UX, but Vitruvian seems to have better hardware. Vitruvian retains all of its 300+ exercise library even if you stop paying for the subscription I have only had the Vitruvian for a week so it is too early to give a full review, but thus far I am incredibly impressed with it. ...

i have a fascination with verified UAP video footage ever since the declassification of the USS Nimitz videos in 2017-2018 . conspiracies and unverified sightings you might see on r/UFOs were never interesting to me (fwiw, r/UAP seems good), but i am very curious about undiscovered tech that could change what we think is possible. before chatgpt, researching stuff like this was tedious. now, it’s easy to choose your own adventure. here’s what I found by researching, summarizing, and comparing results between openai chatgpt 4 and google gemini advanced (1.5). ...

Somewhere along the line between college and my late 30s I became really interested in buying only the top quality kitchen products as I gradually threw out the cheap ones I accumulated in my 20s. These are the ones I really stand behind. Duralex Mis en Place mini glass bowls , Made in France ($30) these Norpro Silicone pinch bowls are a nice kid-friendly alternative OXO Squeeze and Pour Silicone Measuring Cups ($30) a bit expensive, but I really prefer them over glass pyrex liquid measuring cups Matfer High-Temp Fish Spatula ($19) My go-to spatula for just about everything (we have two)! OXO Salad Spinner ($30) Takes up precious cabinet space but is crucial for washing/drying fruit and vegetables Electric Salt and Pepper Grinders ($32) I don’t love the quality of this product, but the convenience for cooking is unmatched. if you come across a higher quality version let me know. Cuisipro Cheese Grater ($34) I don’t like grating cheese, but recognize it’s necessary sometimes. I was surprised at how much better the experience is with a high-quality grater. Instant Vortex XL Air Fryer ($130) Substantially better than the cheap air fryer we started with.

the simplest narrative I have seen to explain tokens, nfts, and crypto: web 1.0 was read-only web 2.0 was read/write web 3.0 is read/write/own traditional web 2.0 platforms like reddit, twitter, facebook, and instagram own your friendships, messages, connections, ad views, and data. they provide use of their platform in return. the next era of apps will use tokens to bootstrap new networks, giving users the ability to own their data and take it with them to whichever app or network best fits their needs. this is not possible without the use of the blockchain. ...
