- Comment on If I was in the market for a good used car, which car would be the best to outrun the cops? 3 days ago:
I meant driving in ordinary traffic.

This reminds me of my parents explaning to me as a kid that even if you are the best driver in the world, everyone else is not and they cannot read your mind. So it would still be dangerous.

Which lawsuit is this about?

Simple ≠ easy
The equation is simple. Actually losing weight is difficult. This is what confused me about your first comment, I couldn’t tell if you were saying that it was not simple or not easy. And as you said, losing weight could be lost as either fat or muscle. If your energy intake is less than what you need to sustain your body, the body will take from your reserves (could be fat or muscles).
I am sure there are complexites to this that I am missing, like what happens if you were to starve then start eating again. The advise I find to be the best is to try to find a diet that you can maintain indefinitely. That does not mean to never eat ice cream, it means to eat less ice cream. If you are eating one bag of chips per day, make it once a weak. Did you eat X today, don’t eat Y as well
Gaining muscles though, all I know about that is mostly nothing so I won’t speak on it.

I’m confused. Your original comment was worded as if it stood in contradiction to cico.
Does not what you said just boil down to cico works, but knowing how much energy your body uses on a daily average (o in cico) is difficult to know and to not trust random values on the internet?

I’ve heard that you cannot absorb (for lack of a better word) more that 30g of protein/day (adjust for your body weight).
Is that remotly true?

I’d rather not work for an employer that is or was so hostile that the employees needed to rise up
That sounds horrible. I have never seen nor heard about a situation like that (in a legal setting, illegal work conditions are another matter). I am also not from the USA (which I assume OP), so my perspective is perhaps different.
Joining a union is never forced where I live, and you can join a union without your work having an agreement with one (they will give legal aid, probably more, and try to improve all workers’ rights. A lot of benefits I enjoy today is because someone else took the fight before me).

I’m all for unions but they should not be forced.
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 3 weeks ago:
How does that work? Are they saying you are forced to pay? Would they sue you if you just stopped paying?

Did she die or something?
Almost. I found this article: news.com.au/…/363ca9fa59e720e41bdb4e257a529ffb
A DETECTIVE investigating former mixed martial arts fighter War Machine’s grisly attack on his ex-porn star girlfriend says she was too battered after to give her account.
“I just couldn’t understand what she was saying but it was because she didn’t have teeth,” Mr Tomaino said at the trial. - Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
That absolutly depends on the type and quality of the rice.

Picture from OP’s meme can be found here (via article in OP’s link): theartnewspaper.com/…/the-potato-head-of-palencia…
It lookes like they ruined more than just the face. All the decorations to the right of the face looks different as well.

Basically everyone who jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge and lived (only ~2% of jumpers) regretted doing it before they hit the water.
My teacher in biology back in school explained that this was due to hormones being released something something close to death something something. In essence, it was not a “choice” to regret jumping, but rather a biological response. So you would regret it wether you wanted to or not, so to say.

Optimize builds and manufacture after a order is made could work. Would be even more expensive.

As the saying goes, it is expensive to be poor.

😂
- Comment on Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face 2 months ago:
It also includes other functions that is not NSFW. Nothing that I personally care about but might be a deal breaker for bigger communities.
Discord breaks down the restrictions as follows:
- Content Filters: Discord users will need to be age-assured as adults in order to unblur sensitive content or turn off the setting.
- Age-gated Spaces: – Only users who are age-assured as adults will be able to access age-restricted channels, servers, and app commands.
- Message Request Inbox: Direct messages from people a user may not know are routed to a separate inbox by default, and access to modify this setting is limited to age-assured adult users.
- Friend Request Alerts: People will receive warning prompts for friend requests from users they may not know.
- Stage Restrictions: Only age-assured adults may speak on stage in servers.

I have an R710 collecting dust in the basement. When it was alive, I used to have one VM for each service I used. While having multiple VMs is useful, containers has greatly reduced the amount of RAM I need.
