If you had $200 to spend on fitness, what would you spend it on?
  • My 70ish lb kettlebell cost over 200 considering shipping D: but it’ll be worth for the gainz. If I had to spend another 200 I’d wonder if there’s a cheap bike or maybe an elliptical, which I doubt. Next stop is probably some kind of half rack that has a decent pull-up bar, because my tower ain’t the greatest

  • Should I keep paying for Proton?
  • I haven’t paid for proton yet but am considering it, and the VPN is the big selling factor currently. I’d use the email, drive, and VPN. Bitwarden or KeePass are good free password managers. Other VPNs have comparable pricing to Proton’s whole one-person suite, so I figure it’s more bang for the buck.

  • Today’s tools and skill toys
  • Thanks for the detailed reply! I’m familiar with Musclebones and Aroundsquare, but the others I’ll have to dig into. I made my own set awhile back with some hex nuts, I wanted to level it up with some nicer beads but didn’t find anything locally. I’ll probably wind up ordering some kind of bead online. I have trouble consciensing buying something that seems like it could be made so easily haha. I’ll check out those communities too. Thanks again!

  • Today’s tools and skill toys
  • Is the dice bead also a sort of begleri or just tactile? Also can you recommend begleri communities? I tried to learn awhile ago and not much traction on my own. Not much on YouTube from what I saw.

  • LF>800+ Lumen, small rechargeable light

    Hey guys! I’m looking for an EDC light that’s 800+ (pref 1000+) lumens, tailcap switch, rechargeable via mini USB or USB-C, and less than $50– is that price point delusional? The closest I’ve gotten is the Wurkkos FC11 but that’s a little too large for my pocket and doesn’t have the tailcap switch (which means it turns on in my pocket sometimes and I can’t turn it on as quick when I grab it). My use case is obviously flashlighty stuff but an important use for me is that it’s part of my self defense layering.

    Lumintop has a “Tool AA 2.0 EDC” that is about the perfect shape (fits in my fist- not square, knobby, or fat) and size (3.52*0.73 inch), but it’s not rechargeable, not as bright as the Wurkkos (but still bright at 650 lumens), and I don’t need its 5 different light modes to cycle through if I accidentally tap the back during use. Still would recommend the light, and I thought about getting a USB-C rechargeable AA for it, but as previously stated I’d really like something a little brighter and ideally a better tailcap switch.

    I browsed the forum, and I saw a couple posts about the Wurkkos TS10. It’s kind of similar in size to another light I have and is a little fat for what I’m looking for. I think the FC11 is as thick or a little thinner, and still a bit big for what I’m looking for. May still try the TS10 if I can’t find anything else. I’d still consider stuff outside of the $50 price range but I really want something inside if at all possible.
