Foof!
Now I love TMBG, but the percussion was mixed way too high in the mix for me. oO

(which was obviously the point, but it just didn't work for me)

Um, I could go on for days about this curséd disease, but may I ask you where your interest is coming from?

Who you are and all that, mate..?

Oh, sorry. My bad.

I have CFS/ME, or myalgic enchephalomyletus (sp?), also called "chronic fatigue syndrome," pretty much a working umbrella-term for those with unexplainable, chronic fatigue.

Thanks for the response. Stevia tastes horrible to me, but... yeah, maybe try it in smaller doses and give it time. :S For example, there are certainly some ground-up dry spices I didn't like at first, such as turmeric and ginger. Now they're regular players in my cooking.

(ooh btw-- any thoughts on stevia counterparts, like agave?)

artificial sweeteners, which if you research the keto diet, your body basically processes just like sugar. Both are bad for insulin levels, could stop ketosis, and may be bad for autophagy.

Yeap, I've read that too from the studies. At this point I add one of my unholy packets (er, sucralose, haha) in to my daily iced tea bottle, which amounts to 28 Fl Oz, or somewhat less than a pint. Hopefully that's not too catastrophic an intake?

Which is why processed foods with starches are very unhealthy even when they brag about being sugar free.

Right, my understanding is that processed foods of almost any ilk really are... something we shouldn't be putting inside our bodies. Altho the more 'resistant' a starch is to spiking glucose is a good thing, as I understand it.

Anyway, thanks for the comments and advice. I admire what you're doing!

Please.
I'm drinking G-zero.
It's a grand total of virtually nothing* upon every sig. count.

One more time, mssr-- what is your magical mixture?

Cravings wear off fast.

Long story short, some years back I damaged something in my esophagus / stomach, and was unable to eat for ~10days. Water was about it for all that time. Maybe a lollipop here and there. Anything more like 'real food' was true agony. I forget if I took man-made vitamins during that time; perhaps a tiny bit here and there.

Finally, whatever it was had healed up, and I was able to eat again, and had lost a good bit of weight, and felt so much more energetic for a few weeks, afterwards!

Stuff like gatoraid, or more exactingly-formulated stuff?

Heha, I'm scared, but I'm also interested! (frankly)

Sorry to hear about that, friend. I really like your shares. All the best, matey. <3

Okkkkkaaaaaaaayyy?

FOR SURE!

(but I want the impossible dre..a..m, haha)

Really appreciate that.

From tiny acorns could mighty acorns be borne! :D

Ooh, that's right!
SearXNG, yes!

Now, I've heard nothing but good things about it, and it seemed to work NICELY when I last tried it.

Ugh, TBH, I'm not* very smart upon this stuff. Hopefully we as a group can improve the situation, tho..?

I'm not generally a huge fan of HM, but I can feel the energy! Thanks for the share.

Precisely.

I think they have a “-site:” parameter

Yup, that's a boolean exclusion term. Thing is, I'm looking for more of the opposite, i.e. a way to lasso as many Lemmy instances as possible in to showing their relevant results to the search.

Right, I'm no google search-engine fan, but I'm thinking of the mass of people...

I know I know, but I was half-toasted and body shutting down due to the usual CFS/ME at the time. I had to take a stab in some direction, haha.

Give me a better analogy...?

Maybe by sheer volume, but it also kinda defeats the aim of the Lemmysphere and FV as I understand it.

And you know, there are some other major instances besides LW. If you look at the classic 'globe-chart' I think that's proven out.

But, I think you're also kinda acknowledging that, so not trying to pick a fight with you or anything. :S

He was really well respected by people in music and was a good soul.

Yeah, I got that sense, and that there was a collective sadness when he passed.

And some people intrinsically LOVE that.
