- Comment on Young gamers in Japan may not be forming the same attachment to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest because modern dev cycles are as long as their childhood, users theorize - AUTOMATON WEST 2 days ago:
Maybe because other games are more fun?

- Comment on Anon finds a glitch 4 days ago:
Imperfections in the surface of the container the water is in. Sorry, I intended to write ‘water in a container without asperites’!
- Comment on Anon finds a glitch 4 days ago:
It’s interesting because very pure water without asperites can be heated above 100c at standard pressure at sea level without boiling. But once impurities are added to it it starts boiling vigorously!
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 4 days ago:
World of Warcraft. Was addicted for the first hundred hours but then was disillusioned really quickly.
- Comment on Japan cancels cherry blossom festival over complaints of tourists littering and ‘defecating’ in yards 1 week ago:
Yards in Japan don’t have to be broken into. In fact, often even the doors to the house are left unlocked. You can access the yard by walking into it from the street.

There are various tests for pre-diabetes, such as the homa-ir or hba1c assays. You could ask your physician to see if they can help you with that.

It’s all the same, Rice bread is terrible for you also.

I love this. Is the blue bird hallucinating what the grey one is saying, or are they both hallucinations from the viewer looking at the birds?

- Comment on Chasing the Elephant 2 months ago:
I had a peritonsillar abscess and it took a long time to heal up even after the antibiotics. The doctor was proposing that I have my tonsils removed but I decided to wait and see. Supposedly this is a rare complication that can develop after a bad sore throat. I’m really careful about sore throats now.
- Comment on Chasing the Elephant 2 months ago:
I can’t say I’ve noticed. I’ve had a bad cold and one particularly bad throat infection that took months to resolve since, but run-of-the-mill colds seem the same to me.

Did you catch Covid? How bad was it, if you did?
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 2 months ago:
Here’s one pathway, and I’m sure there are more:
Ultra-processed food are high in carbohydrates, refined sugars, and industrially processed oils. When consumed, they are quickly and easily absorbed by the body causing a rapid increase in blood glucose, easily proven by a CGM. The body responds by producing insulin. High insulin levels result in fat cells stocking lipids and if necessary also the replication of fat cells.

Fast Food!
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 2 months ago:
It’s very wrong, if only for the simple reason that not all calories are the same. Eating 1000 calories worth of protein will not have the effect as eating 1000 calories of HFCS.
Please stop parroting this piece of misinformation that was used to sell us ultra-processed foods.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 2 months ago:
It’s very difficult to overcome saturated fat because absorption requires bile, and there is a limited amount on the gall bladder. My understanding is that eating more than you can absorb results in it going right through you.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 2 months ago:
If I eat a mcdouble and a diet coke, I’m eating much healthier than if I ate a whole rotissery chicken with potato wedges and a glass of apple juice. Calories and reducing sugar intake are the most important things.
This is highly misleading on many levels, and I strongly urge you to re-evaluate your position on an appropriate diet. For example, nutrition is a biological process that has very little to do with a calorie, which is a measurement of heat energy.
