I still do but I just don't have time for any serious gaming, so it's only quick or indie games for me. But I think I could see myself get back into an MMO or something when I'm retired.
I mostly watch in "VO" (like, I actually mostly consume English speaking content in general) but I'll watch a dub a few times a year when visiting family or whatever. I can tell they're putting a lot of effort into them and all but it remains a bit ridiculous especially if you're familiar with the original material.
What you learn quickly is that the effects of calorie burning are real but way less than what people think. You can go destroy yourself running to the point you're half dead and that's gonna burn like 300 calories (like, one protein bar).
But yes on topic of the gym there's a few downstream effects, the bigger you get the more you eat to be on equilibrium. Also strength workouts keep your muscles "activated" for up to 48h during which you also burn a bit more calories at rest.
And finally of course there's the whole bulking/cutting thing, the basics is that basically, no matter how much you lift you're not gonna grow muscle unless you also have a calorie surplus in particular protein. During this process it's unavoidable to also put on fat so you bulk for a while (eat a lot+ workout a lot and improve personal records) then you cut (eat at deficit, maintenance workouts) so the fat recedes and etc.
I mean that's definitely true and all, but wouldn't they also get a continuous fresh supply of single people (coming of age, breakups). Don't get me wrong I totally get they want that and to keep the users hooked as well, because they're greedy piggys, but still I don't know if the business model is doomed if they don't.
The unfortunate truth is while it's skilled, it's also a high demand industry which people want to work in. That means there's an endless supply of bright eyed youngsters willing to do it for pennies while living at their parents (low expenses), and thus plenty of companies willing to abuse them. Another comment points out they'll be looking for another in 3 months times and that's probably accurate. At some point these companies realise "damn, maybe having to train up a newbie 3 times a year and having consistently shitty output because of it isn't that great after all, maybe we should hire someone worth their salt even if they cost us more" and that's where proper positions become available, but you have to find them.
At the end of the day, Trump won the election, they see that his shit-peddling style brought results, and they're hoping the same thing will happen here. I'd like to think the vast majority of Europeans are too smart to fall for this kinda shit but unfortunately I keep being proven more and more wrong...
Ah yes, sure, but you see with the magic of gerrymandering, they could bring them in but make sure all their votes collectively count about as much as 3 rednecks in Alabama, so don't you worry about this pesky little detail.
I was in the business for a while and they can be more than toys but that's mostly up to you and what you want to do with it/need it for. Once I stopped working in the industry I kept mine for a while but eventually sold it since it didn't really solve any problems for me and took a lot of space just to make cool Christmas presents... I have a friend with 3D printers and other stuff that I go to when I need something for my business.
Definitely not perfect but just the fact he's giving all this effort while on the way out shows you his character, so yeah even if I don't agree with him on many things I at least respect him as a politician (as much as I can respect any politician especially when they don't have my views at all).
I feel similar about Mark Rutte, ex prime minister of the Netherlands and now secretary general of NATO, the guy is a cold ass conservative but god damn it's incomparable with the likes of trump.
Woah 200g of meat a day is well sufficient... That is basically my max amount since I pretty much only have meat at dinner and that's more than a chicken breast which is the most amount of meat I'd consume at one time. I do consume quite a bit of dairy though (used to be cheese, but now for dieting reasons it's quark yogurts, milk, etc) and a few eggs, need that protein.
But the rest is all legumes, veggies, nuts, cereals, good carbs, etc. I'd struggle to eat more meat than that even when I didn't give a shit about my diet I think, but now that I do I also cut out all the non lean stuff so that does play a role.
Not sure why you're down voted, because it's not FOSS? But SketchUp is what I used when I designed my studio and it worked fine (and free). Learning the CAD options listed above is gonna be way harder. Otherwise, there's always blender but same thing with the learning curve.
This is truly a special kind of twisted.
