What’s the point about your friend. Apparently they are still getting their sunlight every day.
- Comment on Would it be better to just have a lot of society be underground? 3 days ago:
It’s cold because it has a large thermal mass and nothing heating it up.
Human civilization produces a lot of heat. The thermal mass means it might take years or decades to reach its heat equilibrium. But that equilibrium will be excruciatingly hot.

Halfing the number of platforms certainly doesn’t help either.
There’s currently a lot of support to finish building the station and keep the old station open anyway. Traffic has increased after all. But they already sold the land the railway switches of the station sit on.

Human internal clocks get advanced about an hour each day by exposure to light. Living in perpetual darkness (or under light bulbs only) wrecks hell on the system.
Plus you need some way to get rid of excess heat. Human society uses a lot of energy. That all turns into heat eventually.

Usually we teach them from the time they are 3 years old. So basically when they are teens

Breaking in is just how the process of fostering trust and getting the horse slowly used to a rider in many little steps is called.

Just because it’s frozen and made in a factory doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s unhealthy.
Vitamin C is pretty much the only nutrient that gets degraded by freezing and storage. Usually the problem is that the nutrients weren’t in there to begin with.
Having a look at the ingredients is really worth it. Of course that is a lot more difficult in a restaurant compared to a grocery store. Thanks to regulations.

Considering that I am struggling not to loose weight, I don’t mind a lot of calories.
When I make baked potatoes at home I usually use 2 of the biggest potatoes I can find. Per person that is. Then I use Quark with 40% fat, mix in some cream, at least a teaspoon of salt, green onion and some frozen herbs.
I don’t think restaurants make it any less healthily.
Your point about using oil instead of butter is valid enough. Rapeseed oil has a lot of alpha-linolenic acid. Butter a lot of saturated fatty acids. But oil is the cheaper ingredient. Butter is important to archive the traditional tase. If restaurants use butter I won’t hold it against them.
For dishes where you can choose your own carb-rich sides I would appreciate some whole-grain options though. For example cooked spelt. It pairs wonderfully with many traditional German dishes. Far-eastern and Indian restaurants could offer whole grain rice.
White grain is the worst offender when in comes to empty calories. Saturated fats at least still fill you up as much as unsaturated fats. You need twice as much white grain to feel as full as you would with whole grain. And you’ll be hungry an hour later.

I do, actually. Our local restaurant of local cuisine makes an awesome salad with game meat. It’s big enough to really fill you up.
Also, Maultaschen are hardly unhealthy
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 5 months ago:
Not really. Teenagers and young adults used to party a lot, and those parties used to have a lot of alcohol
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 5 months ago:
I actually rather like the taste. Although it’s certainly an acquired taste. Like salminak

It really depends on the restaurant. Eating Chick-fil-A every day certainly isn’t healthy. But there are plenty of proper restaurants that are.
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 5 months ago:
That would be a reason for more alcohol
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 5 months ago:
Because alcohol is bad for you?
Our parents were still told that a glass of wine a day was healthy.

It’s just UHT. UHT dairy is very much legal in the US. And does not have to be refrigerated. It often is, because unrefrigerated milk make US consumers uneasy. But it doesn’t have to be.
I am aware that it’s less common than it is in Europe. But it’s not an unreasonable question.

“Do you guys have any sour cream that isn’t refrigerated?”
How is that a stupid question?

More commonly it’s addiction that causes poverty. Drugs are expensive. And an addiction doesn’t make it easier to keep a job.

The tips about opioids and stimulants are also valid if you want to reduce harm while doing those kinds of drugs.
There’s a reason rich people prefer them.

It’s important to take the right drugs, if you want to get rich.
- For example you should take marijuana edible and vapes. Don’t smoke the dried flowers directly.
- You should take prescription painkillers. Avoid heroin and black market fentanyl.
- Do not take Methamphetamine. Try cocaine instead.
- Hallucinogens should help across the board
