And clearly AI-generated image.

Maybe? It could be my Kindle? I don’t know? I don’t know why people end statements with question marks? For example, in this comment, none of these sentences is a question? So they shouldn’t end in a question mark? But people often write like this? It’s quite strange to me? Have a nice day?

Down in it is so bad it’s good. If you don’t take it seriously, it’s actually funny.

It’s the tenant that has no hot water though. The more information they give the landlord, the faster they will get hot water again.

They did say it: “there is no moral anchor anymore.”

The religious person made a pretty black and white comment. Maybe there is a lot of nuance in the context, but this comment has no nuance itself. It’s going from whatever context to making a general comment on the lack of religion and what it does to morality.

The entire point of this post is that Google felt entitled to violate your privacy by detecting your ad blocker. It’s an arms race. If they are free to dictate their terms of service, we are free to dictate what gets displayed on our own computers.

The normies support big tech, they love it. They probably work for big tech, or wish they did, or at least imagine themselves as the next Elon Musk.

Oh, yes, there’s nothing more imprisoning than having to turn your car off. I can’t imagine how people are able to deal with it.

You’re a dick. You can say that about anything. You don’t own a house yet? That’s because of a string of poor decisions. You don’t respect yourself, otherwise you would have saved enough money. And then you’ll go, oh, but I am the one who has real problems, unlike those other fat people. Everyone who was more successful than you was lucky, everyone who was less successful was lazy. This is precisely what millionaires tell themselves to justify paying minimum wage. Those employees who accept working for this meager salary? No self respect, they deserve it.

You? You are just a self-absorbed dick who can only see things from their own perspective and have no idea about other people’s problems.

Written by someone who lost 70lb 15 years ago and didn’t gain it back. Did I suddenly acquire self-respect and discipline? Nope, just found a sustainable lifestyle that worked for me. Shocking, I know.

I think they care the other way around. Many people admire big corporations and either work for one or wish they could. Just think about Apple fans as one example. So if you tell them there is Reddit, which is run by a company for profit, and there is Lemmy, which are a bunch of servers run by computer nerds for the joy of it, this will actively draw many to Reddit.

This is just more keto pseudoscience. Unfortunately people care more about YouTube videos than what reputable sources say: https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/diabetes/overview/symptoms-causes#type

Not disputing that excess fructose can cause liver damage, but most studies demonstrating this have mice ingesting absurd amounts. This doesn’t happen when you are eating a normal amount of food anyway. Excess water can kill you, but no one avoids drinking water because of this.

Thanks! So unfair to the unicorns. They didn’t do anything.

They don’t compete or do hard workouts without consuming carbohydrates though. The anaerobic metabolism doesn’t run on fat no matter how much you train, and it brings a lot of extra energy. You simply can’t go as hard as you can without carbohydrate.

Ruminants might be able to convert more fat to glucose, I don’t know about that, but humans can’t. Would be wonderful if we could, considering we can store almost infinite fat but only a meager amount of carbohydrate.

Wikipedia explains it well: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis

I forgot to mention odd-chain fatty acids besides glycerol, but they also just give you half of a glucose molecule.

Already do many of those. World is still heating up. Somehow I don’t think I can cool it with my recycling bin, the petitions that I signed and the votes that I cast. That’s the problem.

It is protein poisoning. Having fat available just means you can consume less protein in order to not starve.

No, that’s all keto pseudoscience.

Only very very little fat (the glycerol part) can be converted to glucose actually. The main source for gluconeogenesis is protein. And our bodies hate converting protein to glucose. You can guess why! This is why endurance athletes are constantly sipping on a sugary drink as they compete

You don’t have the same incentive to quit sugar either. It’s not illegal, it won’t make you crash your car and kill someone, the police won’t arrest you for driving under the influence of sugar, you won’t lose your job because you were caught using sugar, your family won’t leave you because of your sugar habit, strangers won’t feel ashamed or depressed if they see you using sugar in a public place etc.

Sure, there is obesity and diabetes, but they are directly caused by an excess of calories, not sugar. Sugar might make you eat more, or so people say, but does it really? You can still overeat plenty of greasy salty stuff.

This is exactly the famous rat park experiment. Yes, the rats consumed vastly less cocaine when they were in a fun rat park compared to a box, where they became totally obsessed cocaine fiends.
