Sounds like they were retaining more water rather than quickly putting on a lot of muscle, which is common with creatine usage. I explained what actually happens in another reply.
Kinda, but the effect is almost imperceptible. It'll help you get like one more rep on your last set, or maybe one more sprint, at sufficient intensity, which is a little bit of extra volume that does add up over time with proper consistency. So, not just "looking stronger."
The brain health effects that the influencers are talking about now are just hype, though.
If you're taking the universally agreed on and recommended dosage of 5g/day, you're fine. You're not going to see insane results as opposed to not taking it, but it won't hurt.
And just stick with the monohydrate powder. I've been seeing a lot of other stuff recently, like gummies, or creatine added to acidic energy drinks. It doesn't hold up well in those conditions, so just mix it yourself.
Demands being Anthropic's removal of their two "lines in the sand" regarding AI for national defense: domestic surveillance and autonomous weaponry without any human intervention.
The military already isn't allowed to monitor U.S. citizens under Intelligence Oversight (and the NSA doesn't like it when you do their job), and the DoD has already taken a stance against fully automating who is a lawful combatant and the decision to end a human life. At least until Kegsbreath gets rid of all those woke things like rules of engagement and use of force rules.
Whiskey Pete's giving off some strong Pingu "well now I am not going to do it" vibes.
That was the joke? The racist uncle at Thanksgiving bitching and moaning about a societal expectation to treat people with respect even if you don't agree with their choices, thinly veiled as a "joke?"
He didn't want to invite out the women's team, or any women's team for that matter, because they're not likely to be Trump supporters and he can't handle having his feelings hurt.
It upsets me how correct you are. We already judge the worth of public services by how much profit they generate (or don't). Conservatives and right-wing libertarians would jump at the opportunity to privatize everything. I hear people at work suggest we hand over all postal service operations to Amazon whenever they're slightly inconvenienced by their rural post office.
You're right, we don't need to ID-gate anything, but that doesn't mean we should trust the companies' implementation. Just look at what's happening with Discord.
If you're supporting actual legislation for banning teens from social media at this point, and you think tech companies aren't selling off age verification data to surveillance capitalists, then yeah, that's what you're saying.
BTW, I really hope your car lasts as long as possible, and/or you don't have to get another one anytime soon. Car manufacturers are tracking literally everything you do, because they also "care about safety."
In the game, even if you've built yourself up, an unlucky roll can still lose you the game. As opposed to real life, where the government decides you're too big to fail.
Oh, I'm well aware there are some ulterior motives, as always. I'm concerned about the voters that will only take it at face value and be like "this is good for us! How can you possibly be against it?"
