Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
I am a health nut and self defense junkie. If you cannot defend yourself because you are stiff and overweight you are not serious. You are full of bull! I'm hoping that Ozempic helps me to lose 45 to 50lbs, and together with flexibility exercises and walking I become more nimble. Everyone isn't the...

Re: Bodacious Update?
I hope that this knife does well. I may pick up a Bodacious and a Shaman, and I'd really like to see them in a 4.25 inch blade too.

Re: The XHP knives.
S90V Hundred Pacer sounds interesting. If it comes back, I'd prefer a back-lock as I am not a fan of the lock it had.
I too am very sorry that I did not pick one or two up when they were around. It is one of my favorite blade profiles ever.

Re: Striving For a Healthy Long Life
I'm still taking most of my supplements, all of my prescriptions, and just added Ozempic. I try to make sure to have refills for supplements before they run out, but it does not always work out that way. They are expensive, and I am saving for more knives(looking at adding one or more S90V and M390 ...

Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
I look forward to Microsoft's investment into AI but it is hard to disagree with what Gary Marcus on Twitter said: 13.5 months post GPT-4: • Models that are not as good as GPT-4 have become widespread. • Models that are roughly as good GPT-4 have become common. • Models that are significantly better...

I stayed out of the political end of it.
The hacking IS REAL and that is all that I'm talking about. Be aware people or your credit card data and identity will be gone.

As a Filipino, I appreciate that other people are aware of tensions in Southeast Asia. I can't say more without turning this into a political post, so I will close with that. I knew about the Philippines before 2000, but I did not know much about Filipino people and their American history. I learne...
