    Use something like Ultrahuman to keep a tab on key metabolic profiles. 

    General detection of hypo will not happen unless you've a disease. When you're exercising, your muscles are using up your blood glucose, and liver is acting to convert glycogen to glucose and release it quickly in the blood. If your body is not used to it, the depletion happens faster than replenishment, and hence hypo. 

    Ultrahuman uses Abbott's real time glucose monitoring system (used by T1 diabetics) to keep an (almost) real time tab on glucose levels. It's a bit...big if you're not used to it, but don't think there's anything else like it in the market right now. 

    Is ultrahuman the m1 patch thing? Or you're talking about the ring?

    I see there is a 10k a month monitoring fee as well :eyepop:

    So I've been working out at home for the last 1 month. Joined a new gym today and did some very very basic excercise set (superset of single arm rowing and close grip lat pull down). 1 set and i started getting dizzy, had to lie down . First time this has happened to me, could it be because ive been on low calories in the last week and went to the gym fasted today?

    When you guys travel, do you guys take like multiple cartridges? Or do you guys usually buy digital? 

     

    The games are quite expensive as I have just started researching Switch. I suppose digital ones are expensive too. 

    You can buy used games for 3000-3500, however on average a new switch game is cheaper than a new ps4/ps5 game. New switch games cost around 3800-3900 at launch.

    Wow.... No wonder this thread keeps getting locked all the time. You always read between the lines and make unfounded assumptions to fuel arguments. Where the hell did I say those games have lesser entertainment value? I'm sure they're amazing in their own right. I've heard a lot about them.

     

    I merely said Nintendo has the biggest entertainment value in terms of broader appeal. PS and Xbox have excellent games but probably geared more towards the hardcore. Most people on forums are gamers and fall more towards the hardcore category. But the layman more often than not knows Mario rather than Kratos. The layman more often than not refers to any video game as a "Nintendo".

     

    By the way, I don't care if Nintendo is the biggest or not (but you certainly do). My only point is Nintendo games are for adults as much as PS and Xbox.

    Zelda botw is the best game i played last gen, and I dont even like open world games in general.

    Its even more hilarious since they repeatedly promised it in blogs and tweets

    When HFW went back on the promise and charged $10 for upgrade, people came out in full force and made Sony reverse it. Now the same guys be like "bu bu so and so games don't have split screen too haha gotcha." Nothing's going to reverse in Xbox camp when you have fans like these :lol: 

     

    Thats the whole problem with Xbox fanboys. MS keeps getting a free pass every gen, so now they don't even bother creating new exclusive IPs for xbox. Gamepass is the only thing good out of MS in the last 2 gens, but that being favourable for users is only a side effect of their efforts to hurt sales on Playstation, and not their intention.

     

    Personally I find the "your game is on PC, people will stop buying your console" argument dumb, because console gamers will not go out of their way to invest on PC. Having said that , MS really needs to create new IPs for their xbox ecosystem.

    Quiet a hyperbole.

     

    And they better release them cause of non existent 3rd party support.

     

    What exactly will you play on system if they won't release at least 3-4 games per year?

    You can play third party games on ps /pc. No need to pick an xbox to play them. You cant play switch exclusives (legally)without buying the switch.

    Third party support alone, unless those games are exclusive, does not make a console lucrative. People create preferences basis the games exclusive to a platform.

    Coz TLOU is their best game and a masterpiece of gaming medium. Although the sequel is a good game but not this good. Plus the tv show releasing.

     

     

    You're confusing TLOU with UC2..
