I've started wearing "wife beaters", a-shirts, now as underwear. My build is a lot like my grandfather who I always remembered wearing them so I thought, hey...if they were good enough for him then maybe I should try them out.

I really like the way I look with them. They are like the male equivalent of a "bra" from what I can tell. If you are a little overweight, like i am, (10-20lbs) they really make a difference by distributing your fat around your waist and chest. The difference is looking chunky to looking kinda fit. If you don't wear one, maybe you should try it out ;).

I've always heard them referred to and have referred to them as "wife beaters." I think the orgin comes from a typical red-neck wife beater wearing them around as an actual shirt (not as underwear). I guess I didn't realize that the term was more local while this is more of an international board. If I say "wife beater" to anyone in this town they know I'm referring to underwear and not to actual wife beaters.

I think I might start wearing one now..... If it can make me look less chubby :cool: .......

It could just all be in my head. But I swear it makes cloths look better on me. I for some reason have fat build up around my chest area..."man boobs" kinda. And it helps eliminate that very well! I do push-ups every night, but I tend to get fat in that area as oppose to my arse where I need it, heh. Our bodies are so weird. Well mine is anyway.

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.
    • Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
