  • Right? I’m surprised, too. I think the main reason they’re able to make so much progress because one of the main devs worked on either PCSX2 or RPCS3 so they already have experienced people on it.
    But I think it’s also because of the PS4’s x86 architecture which makes it much easier to program for. Which also means it’s much easier to emulate.
    But that’s just speculation on my end.





  • I am just barely ahead of you at 4 weeks and I noticed something similar with me. I’m very similar dimensions; at my lightest I was about 57 kg and 176 cm.
    Once I started taking E, I was hungrier longer and it took more to satiate me. Now I’m around 60-62 kg, which is where I’ve been in the past, so I don’t look all that different.
    I noticed my legs feel a little squishier than I remember. But that could just be me looking for things that aren’t there. I think it also moved some fat around in my face as my cheeks feel a little thicker/puffier than before. It’s taking some getting used to.








  • Your collection of toy cars reminded me that I loved Hot Wheels as a kid in the '90s and early '00s. And I would often have to get more whenever we went to the store. Or at the very least see what they had. Luckily they were cheap so my parents were ok getting 1 or 2 each time.
    I was also really good at remembering what ones I already had, so I knew at the store what ones I didn’t have.
    It’s been a long time since I counted, but I amassed over 300 cars by the time I grew out of them.









  • I had my car dyno’d and tuned back in February. It has a naturally aspirated 3.5L V6. The tune bumped peak crank HP from 288 to 306 and torque from 254 lb-ft to 278, which is on par with the 3.7L variant of my engine.
    While the peaks only gained 6 and 9%, respectively, other areas saw even bigger gains. For example, below 4000 rpm most of the power band gained 15-20 lb-ft over stock. And above 4500 rpm, the torque continues to rise rather than plateau which I’ve noticed in hard accelerations.
    Another interesting thing is how much smoother the power band is compared to stock.
    This was a bit pricey, though, and I see why most people don’t do this often. All told, it was about $2500 to do: Pre-Dyno inspection, HP Tuners ECU, set of step colder spark plugs, putting it on the dyno, etc. Honestly, would do again and would like to do in the future.
