- Comment on What is the best way to drop 50lbs in two months without spending alot and no fad diets? 4 days ago:
Intermittent fasting, only eat from 10am-6pm.
Early morning exercise, 1hr of walking or cycling. Start 5am or 6am. Medium intensity.
Generally healthy meals. No calorie blowout days.
Plenty of water, minimal fizzy drinks. Soda water is OK.
For added benefit, afternoon HIIT.
Worked for me.

- Comment on Whatever happened to pickup artists? Did they evolve into alpha males or ascend to a higher plane? 2 months ago:
In the 80s they were called PUAs.
I met a similar type of low-empathy guy in the 2000s, who talked the same trash with regard to picking up women, he called it ‘Sarging’.
A cringe and disgusting meeting.

- Comment on What is known about darkrooms? 3 months ago:
There is a ‘Do not enter’ light above the door to the dark room, that you flick on when developing, so that no one comes in and lets light in. Or there may be a 2-door airlock/lightlock.
There are big tongs with rubber ends, to move the photo-paper from one chemical bath to the next while developing.
I forget how to make white-borders around photos, maybe tape each of the 4 sides.

Hey awesome!
You are much better equipped to explain the site culture and node-structure, than I am.
I did read through various nodes during the SlashDot era, but only check-in sporadically now.

- Comment on Has anyone else experienced these psychological changes after eating meat? 4 months ago:
If you let us know the video or article that got you on the diet, we can advise more.
Often diet advice is bogus when it does not come from a dietician.
Some random advice can be harmful.
- Comment on Has anyone else experienced these psychological changes after eating meat? 4 months ago:
Possibly the super-powers-from-meat angle you are explaining. 🙃
You may need a longer sample period to identify any changes happening here.

Can be paired with a second unit for stereo sound.
Portable in a laptop bag, and 15-20hr playtime per charge.

- Comment on Have there been any technological advances in boucey ball technology in the last decade or two? 4 months ago:
You can carefully crack open a golf ball to reveal a decent bouncy-ball.
From memory, I think it is a weighted core, wrapped in a long thin strand of rubber.
Glue the rubber strand to stop it unravelling and it should be good.
(Crack open carefully means with a vice and a hacksaw, rather than using any knife)
