I thought coups were ok?

A lot of that depends on you, your goals and your available equipment.. someone interested in strength training with barbells / powerlifting might gravitate towards 5/3/1. Strong curves is a program directed towards ladies and uses dumbbells, bands, etc. Check out the boostcamp app, it has a lot of free programs to choose from, with workout tracking and explanations of each lift

It's generally agreed that following an established program is definitely better than almost any DIY solution. You don't want to be spinning your wheels, you want to be getting the best bang for your buck and making progress

Picking up heavy crap is our hobby now so its nice to be asked :D

Congrats on the progress, keep it up! I started lifting weights for the first time during Covid and since then I've turned into that annoying person who won't stop talking about the benefits to anyone who will listen. Before long people will start to notice, and you'll be asked to lift and carry heavy crap

It is, many people will disable it when near known pirate active areas

That's awesome! Honestly I think its the best possible thing you can do for yourself. As your strength level comes up you start getting more useful and harder to injure

The best thing I ever did for my back was take up weightlifting (Specifically deadlifts) I've got degenerative disease plus a herniated disc plus spinal arthritis and was living with chronic pain, and now I feel like I'm 20 again. I would encourage anybody with back pain to add deadlifts to their life if possible. Anybody needs any help getting started can drop me a line

Putting proximity mines on the ammo crates and then immediately picking up the crates so they respawned and the mine was invisible was just... chef's kiss

Apple is staunchly against allowing iPads to run a real OS, despite the hardware being more than capable. They don't want you to replace your laptop, they want you to need both the laptop and the iPad. If I could get OS X or Linux on an iPad I would make it my primary device tomorrow. But they really fight to keep that segmentation in place
