- you don't need to do anything. why try? sit at home and watch tv.
i can hike elevation all day which is great for backpacking, i look great with a shirt off, and i can stand up from the couch without using my hands.
yes, im taking it a bit far at this point, but really that just means eating the average american's protein intake and then a protein shake or two on top
- > What is the problem of consuming say 80-100% of whey protein?
Well, for starters, that'd be completely fucking joyless. And on top of that, meat contains other nutrients that I'd have to account for (which is not hard tbh, but requires a little bit of studying and planning).
> tasty milk product called tvoroh
My gallbladder has never been at 100% and as a result, I have to eat a relatively low fat diet. This is not something a normal person faces. I eat a fair amount of low fat greek yogurt, though. Similar concept.
- okay? i said "adequate for me", not "adequate for the average western person".
- fwiw at the level of protein i need to eat to build muscle mass (im weight training 3x a week), even that 27 vs 19 difference starts to become a problem.
people don't realize how challenging it is to eat 200g of protein a day, every day, for months, without eating like 3000cal lol
that said, i do eat a lot of plant based protein. i love chickpeas and i also fuck w tofu a lot.
- yes that's true
im probably more conscious about what i eat than the average person, just on virtue of watching macros lol
- well im not bodybuilding anymore, so i guess im just in a constant bulk/caloric parity. i still think like that tho lol
- lentils carb/protein ratio isn't great. you still need to supplement it with protein (whey or pea). i eat a fair amount of lentils, but mostly as a carb source (like white rice). even tofu's ratio isn't good enough. i do eat a lot of tofu though, because i like it
back of the hand math suggests id have to eat a kg of dry lentils a day to reach my protein requirements. that's gotta be what, 2800 cal? edit: 800g of lentils for 200g of protein, 2500 cal.
im just thinking out loud here, but lentils alone wouldn't be adequate for me.
- I'm a weightlifter and as part of my training, I eat pretty close to about a pound of meat a day during bulk, usually about 12-14oz. This is because I need to eat about 200g of protein a day. I supplement it with protein shakes.
I find that to be a challenging amount of meat. It's a lot! And to find out that's average???
Americans eat way too much meat. Cheese, too.
- > There are a tons of "we bundled all the latest crap" Chrome forks out there. Nobody needs more those.
And it's fine if they want to compete in that space, but they don't even seem to have the drive or desire to excel there.
To this day, I'm surprised that chromium powers electron and firefox hasn't released a compelling alternative.
- they usually run newer codecs at a much lower bitrate, and do group testing to make sure the quality is "acceptable".
in double blind testing, at the same bitrate, you'll pick the "new" codec every time. but yes, they're trying to save money on bandwidth. it's annoying
- Keep in mind that this is a major metropolitan area in a state that has a history of earthquakes. You can expect state level response (and federal as well) within the same day. Their main priority will be water, and elements exposure.
Guidance varies. California list here https://earthquake.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2025/02...
You should have water, food, medical supplies, and cash.

- Yes, but in this case, it does.
AV1 is good enough that the cost of not licensing might outweigh the cost of higher bandwidth. And it sounds like Netflix agrees with that.
- googled it... some estimates put mcdonalds coca cola sales at over $1b usd a year
so maybe this one isnt so inflated lol
- > Also nothing wrong with just having a shelf with things you like to look at.
Sure. That's a collection of things you like but it's not "collecting". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4onp1zbjSjU
- I don't get it. It's a "collectable". Your "hobby" is "collecting". You put your "collection" on a shelf and look at it.
That's not a hobby to me. It's just consuming for consumption's sake.
- yes, "beaming" in the us was also used for quite a while. as in IR beam
japanese phones were buggy, feature packed monstrosities. a bunch of companies fighting to check as many boxes as they could. it's not a surprise that they got wiped out by an attempt to make a holistic internet communicator.
but for a while, there was nothing like them and their ability to get information on the internet
- I don't think I will, thank you. Feel free to Google it.
- complicated. sometimes, they do real and solid reporting.
on the other hand, there's a reason multiple tech-focused communities ban their articles
i personally am happy to see this judgement, their attacks on mjg are unhinged and misguided

- > those work because they're just a normal visa transaction
> I wouldn’t be so sure about that.
I would be very sure about that.
> In some payment situations you’re asked whether you’d like to have the transaction go through as debit or as credit—so those two must be different somewhere
Yes, that is correct.
- very simple explanation but there's a few issues
radio bandwidth: higher frequencies travel a shorter distance and provide more bandwidth. so you get frequency contention and also you need your sats to be physically closer
latency: the further a sat is, the higher the latency. not an issue for text messages. a huge issue for phone calls and general internet tasks. the further you "push" your sat "back", the worst the user experience is
there's other issues too, like geostationary vs geosynchronous and coverage and exposure.
- complicated.
star/plus/cirrus etc - pure debit-only networks - aren't accepted on a plane
debit cards that are on one of the credit card rails (visa, mastercard, etc) are very common. those work because they're just a normal visa transaction
- > is not violent
nobody is saying that
> or that somehow their violence is lower in percentage
it is _substantially_ lower
- > Haha not quite at the point Hurd has gotten
that's true, you've only shipped to one computer, while they've shipped to dozens!
- I feel like there needs to be a third option, which might be "not a good question" or "false dichotomy" or "low quality"
for example, i got "Q: Is Luigi Mangione guilty of murdering the CEO of United Healthcare?"
Well yes, he shot the guy on camera. Due process and all of that, he's probably guilty. It's like asking is the sky blue. What's the point? That's a low quality question. Did you mean "is jury nullification a good choice" or "is what he did morally right"?
Also got asked if I ever had a physical fight with a sibling.
Well, I don't have one, so no. Perhaps not what the question was intending.
- > They used the example, you send an email that says lets meet for dinner tonight at 6. You arrive and after 30 minutes begin to wonder, go back to your email and now it says meet "tommorow night" at 6. Are you crazy? Did you misremember? Or did the sender change the email after they sent it and you read it? How could you complain?
This is a calendar invite. And this is a completely valid use case, but it's useless if I don't have an edit log. It's crazy how many people miss that last part.
- namespace collision: to the layperson, it's organic because it came from an organism. from a chemical perspective, it's considered non-organic
i admit i read ops comment and was confused for a second until it clicked. they're mostly calcium carbonate
- i mean... someone did try this with i2c. a couple of dead computer companies shipped a bus that i forget the name of, based on this concept. its descendant is the vga hdmi control channel spec (which was implemented as a de facto separate standard but is very similar)
the name is escaping me
> Anything where P*10 > KCAL is a very good protein source, imo.
for the average person's protein intake, yes.
try doing 200g of protein a day with tofu. for firm tofu, that's over 5 pounds of tofu a day! and that's over 2000 calories.
it's doable but i also challenge you to eat 5 pounds of tofu every day of a week and tell me if that's any fun, lol.
