Okay I will ☺️🌈🌞 (picture of me living in an awesome world where people’s opinions on video games can’t be wrong)

You can’t really be “wrong” about an opinion on a video game

I used to be a “silent phone” person until I discovered scheduled do-not-disturb. I like being able to hear when someone is calling me, I just don’t want to hear it at certain times/days.

I’m not sure which of us misunderstood it, but my interpretation of their findings is that overall, increased protein intake was not associated with increased athletic performance. However if you look ONLY at endurance, it was actually associated with high performance, though only when alongside carbs. Maybe counterintuitive.

Their total sample size was around 300 or 400 iirc. Pretty big, but could be better.

Haha I watched this a couple weeks ago.
Another really important point they make is that even among athletes, extra protein intake does not really help. Athletes only have higher protein intake because their overall caloric intake is higher. Studies show that increased protein intake is only associated with higher athletic performance when it is alongside increased intake of other nutrients (carbs). I was looking at a meta analysis a few days ago. I don’t have the link but I took this screenshot.

So a “protein shake” is not likely to help you unless you were already protein deficient, which as somebody else pointed out in this thread, is not likely for Americans who over consume meat.

Recipe? 🧐

I do miss my Pixel 5a. I think it was the last Pixel to have a headphone port. I have an 8a now and it’s just worse. Effective battery life is MUCH worse and I’m not even sure why. The device itself is a little thicker, no headphone port, the under-screen fingerprint reader is much less effective, the pinhole camera is in a worse location, and other than that it’s pretty much the same.

I would have used my 5a into perpetuity but the screen spontaneously broke one day totally out of nowhere. Didn’t drop it or anything, it just permanently froze while I was using it one time.
Turns out it might have been some moisture problem and people online said that it might work if you put the phone in the freezer. Well, that actually did work and I used it that way for a couple weeks. I would keep my phone in the freezer overnight and it would work for most of the day. But eventually that stopped working and the screen warranty had just ended so I got a new (worse 😡) phone. But I miss the 5a…

Learning Japanese was my covid hobby. It’s a very fun language!

To be fair, that’s the standard pronunciation in a very popular dialect of the language.

That might be right in general, but the device that the commenter included a picture of says オゾン (ozone) all over it. You can also see the O3 molecules in the diagram. So producing ozone does appear to be the primary function of that particular machine.

I looked it up before making my comment and couldn’t find any info about what % of Americans drink water, only info about average volume of water consumption and average volume of soft drink consumption.

You are right that there is a problem in North America with soft drink vs water consumption and it sounds like you know more about it than I do. I only called out your original statement that “most don’t even drink water” because it seems like a huge stretch beyond what the research I was able to find can actually support. The idea that >50% of people in America don’t drink water regularly or ever still seems absurd to me. I struggle to think you even believe it yourself.

Most don’t even drink water any more.

Do you have a source for that or even honestly believe it yourself?

If we’re okay with having a leftover day (or two), let’s just have 5-6 intercalary days and then we can divide the other 360 days as evenly as we want. I’m a big fan of 12 months with 30 days each, with 3 weeks of 10 days each. But 360 is so versatile you could do it however you want.
Since the days of the week originally get their names from the sun, moon, and planets, we could easily name days for the 3 planets that have been [relatively] recently discovered or recognized: Earth, Uranus, and Neptune.

Basically I’m advocating for the same structure of the French revolutionary calendar, but I’d change it so that the year starts on the Gregorian calendar’s March 1 to line up the leap day, and also copy the Gregorian calendar’s leap year calculation.

I’ve been using it on Windows for a long time.
Last weekend I switched my Windows 11 laptop to CachyOS with plasma and it was preinstalled and connected to my phone seamlessly 🤯

Probably when my roommate tried to kill himself a few months ago.
My sister tried to hold his wound shut and led him outside.
I held the door shut to keep him from getting back to the knife, called the ambulance, and cleaned up all the blood the next day.

Still feels kinda surreal.

Startpage, but I haven’t really been happy with it. Takes results directly from Google or Bing I think, and sometimes makes me do a captcha if I’m on a VPN. At least there’s no A.I.
I also have Duck Duck Go, Google, Wikipedia, Wiktionary and a few other searches set to prefixes in Firefox so if I search “w bananas” it’ll search Wikipedia, or “dd bananas” for Duck Duck Go, etc.

If I’m searching for something to read about basically and I think it’s on Wikipedia, I’ll usually start there with a direct search using my shortcut and not even touch a general search engine.

Basically yeah. The holes didn’t line up quite right and I didn’t feel like maneuvering it to get any more than 2.

Motherboard standoffs… Pretty sure my motherboard is supposed to have like 9 of them but I only have maybe 2.

Did you try it raw or did you cook it first?
