So... it's curious that none of the leaks mention a name at all, isn't it? Will it be called Switch 2 and thereby avoid any confusion, or will they go with a totally wonky name?
-
It seems, to me, like a rather awkward grip if that is going to function as a mouse. But I can totally see that would benefit a lot of games, even though it would limit the ability to press buttons.
Also, one could just use the built in gyro for mouse-ish control. Like in the Magic Remote for LG tvs.

New Spider-Man cartoon to air on January 29th:
Looks interesting, I really like the style.

Yeah, the trailer lacked some climax but overall, it left me curious enough, and the music was quite fitting. Yeah, might be worth going to the cinema for!
-
Yeah, the current Switch is big enough, just get rid of the bezels around the screen and perhaps give way to some slightly bigger JoyCons or grips.

Yeah, I would have waited had I known there would be a part 3 before starting. And I would have waited had I initially known there would be a part 2 and 3.

Didn't realise Cobra Kai season 6 was a three parter. That disappoints me very much.
So I am up to date with the last season and I have enjoyed it, but especially so once I started seeing the show as a live action anime. Everything makes more sense as an anime. Especially how they ended part 2, that was so much over the top that it was enjoyable.

Oooh. Found The Great Deku Tree for the equivalent of £180 as a Black Friday offer. That's really tempting...
-
Still looks very solid. And lol at the ending of the trailer!

I really have no idea why they make this.

In a month I'll be getting a physical examination like one I got 2 years ago. Will be exciting to see if there is any difference in weight and body fat.
Got this today. Weight is 66 kg, body fat percentage is 10.2. That's quite acceptable.
Two years ago I weighed about 68 kg but can't remember my bfp at that time. I don't think it was lower at least but might have been more or less the same.
-
I find any more than 6 or so squats to be so boring I end up hating it.
Well, it's certainly something else than the heavy sets and the burn is rather nasty once I hit the 8-10 reps. I've read somewhere, sometime, that it is a good way to build stamina - to deload to about 80 % of the working sets and then do 12 reps.
-
So my leave is now officially over and I won't have the time or energy to exercise that much anymore. I got to 90 kg in back squat for 2*5 reps - then went down to 4*5 reps at 85 kg. After that I would do 12-15 reps at 70 kg which was awful, followed by some split squats to really feel the burn. I feel quite a lot stronger and a lot more tight in general and it sucks that I probably can't maintain this level of strength in the future.

Had my first day at work after a little more than 5 months off due to paternity leave. And whaddya know - they weren't ready for my return. My boss has known since August that I would return at about this time, and I told everybody at a department event on November 1st that I would return this week, and there is absolutely zero tasks waiting for me. I did some e-learning on GDPR to kill some time, talked to people and had lunch today, was there for 5 hours before getting home to pick up the children from day care and school. But tomorrow I'll be back at work at 9 am and don't know what to do.
I was told I had to help make some changes to how our APIs work so that we can release new versions of those outside of "normal" (big) releases but our IT architect is not ready to talk about how we do that. So I'll have to take small tasks from here and there to spend the time. I find that a bit disappointing.
-
Awesome to get a confirmation about this. It makes it less of a consideration to upgrade to the new one.
-
Analysts these days. They get paid to say stuff like that?
-
I'm not surprised. The original game was very decent and adding in another story mode would have to be very bad to make the game less enjoyable. Glad it's getting good reviews.

Seems like a new Miiverse / Miitopia with simulation elements.
But yeah, not my kind of thing.
-
Oh, wow. Obviously. 🙄 I also found that you can disconnect a controller. But seems quite the hassle compared to just pressing + and choosing exit...
-
So... How do you change the number of players in this game? I was in the Part Plaza and in the balloon and simply couldn't find any way to exit back to the menu.
-
I've done some of them, but the ones where they strip you of all echoes so you have to throw rocks to defeat your first enemy or whatnot weren't for me. Maybe I wasn't thinking outside of the box enough. I was only doing it to try and get that sword for Dampè, but I haven't even tried using the automatons he has given me already (all 2 of them)
Yeah, you'd have to think more about it than that. I didn't enjoy the first two but found the remaining ones more fun.
-
No need, I saw it the first time, after I'd done it obviously. Both one-note approaches either way.
All in all, not a bad game, I think I will check a guide and get the last echoes, but dream dojo, horse racing, stamps, pieces of heart... Nah, I'll flog it.
I must say, I found the dream dojo to be good fun. I read up on some tips for the boss battles and they add a bit more depth to the battles. Try it out.

Take a cycle off and do something else for a time such as an incline bench, dumbbell bench etc. Sometimes you just need a break from it.
Yeah, definitely should vary it but I haven't got a real bench (I lie on two 20 kg plates to elevate me from the floor) which might explain my weakness. As such, I can't do incline and only have one dumbbell. I do overhead presses though, which I tend to like more, but recently I got a slight pain in my right shoulder (bursitis but not serious) so don't do that much.
-
I'm nearing the end of my paternity leave now. I have been able to exercise about 4 times a week since June but took a break during July as I was away on holiday.
Today I did squats, 5 sets of 5 reps at 85 kg and then 1 set of 3 reps at 90 kg. I could have wished for a little more progress but it's only recently that I actually started doing sets of 5 instead of 8.
My bench hasn't really improved, though. Struggling to do 5 reps at 55 kg. I simply don't like benching so don't do it much.
I've tried balancing cardio with strength during my time off. Have taken a few runs on my treadmill, 3 or 5 km, as warm up before strength (but never before squats) or 3-6 km on my rowing machine. Also did some Crossfit WODs for cardio, some home brewn and some classics like Tabata.
Overall it's been great to have the time to exercise more. In a month I'll be getting a physical examination like one I got 2 years ago. Will be exciting to see if there is any difference in weight and body fat.

Oh, cool. I've only seen the back of the dock then.
