There are words and phrases in English that get used sarcastically so often they lose their original meaning. There is a word for this and I swear I've seen a whole list somewhere but my google fu is weak today.
I don't really know you or your situation, but I suspect it might be the "doing something creative" part rather than the "evening" part that's contributing to the positive mood. Obviously real life and scheduling is difficult, but maybe try to make time to do some of that in the morning.
Okay, I don't have as many as I thought, but it's weird that it happened as many times as it did. Looking closer, maybe not the same guy but definitely some features in common. Cousins, maybe. Thick lips, sharp nose. Beard or stubble. Dark hair.
Story wise it's self contained. You might be on slightly better footing with the building mechanics if you've played another, but it's different enough that it's not required.
This guy is like Leonardo's Loab. If your prompt is abstract enough eventually it'll give you some version of this guy. I have a ton I can post later, i gtg work now tho.
Yeah I have some niche interests that I still have to go back to reddit to find information on. Give it time though, remember reddit had years to grow and the migration to lemmy is relatively new.
Yeah, it is very high. Other sources place intake a shade above 2500cal/day for their selected demographic. I really wonder where they're getting their data from.
So it turns out this is actually super hard to analyse by modern standards (I am also coming at it from another country with different guidelines again, which complicates it a bit) so take all of what I'm saying with a pretty hefty grain of salt.
We don't group foods together like this any more, but it seems to have been the done thing back in the '80s-'90s so I'm a bit out of my depth. These days potatoes wouldn't be lumped in with grain / carbohydrates, they'd count as vegetables. Likewise eggs wouldn't go with dairy, they'd go with meat and fish as protein.
Calorie intake depends heavily on demographics; age, sex, physical activity level, etc, so it's really hard to assess for huge populations like this and there's fuck all information about the USSR in that area from this time. Generally speaking though, NHS recommends 2000cal/day for women and 2500 for men. So, they're both way over on that, but the USA is over by more. WHO recommends no more than 10% daily energy from sugar. Again, they're both over on that, but the USA is over by a lot more. Fats are recommended to be 20%-35% of daily energy; this article doesn't account for fats from dairy or meat so the numbers quoted here are low, and impossible to separate out. I did, however, find a journal article from 1985 while trying to work all this out. This one puts men aged 40-59 at 2567cal/day in the USSR and 2554cal/day in USA; a 13 calorie difference (that's about half an ounce of apple) with USSR higher, but a lot closer to modern NHS guidelines for both. For the USSR; 38% from fat vs. 40% from fat in USA. Again, both over, but USA over by more.
In conclusion, this data is badly categorised, way too high-level, and too over-generalised to really draw much of value from, but speaking really broadly, yeah. About the same amount of food. Neither is ideal, but the Soviet diet is probably slightly better. I'd really, really like to see the sources they used.
It's difficult to compare diets across countries like this because of differences in lifestyle and genetics. I am actually a nutritionist but it's like 2 am here, I'll run some numbers tomorrow and double check this but I suspect it's probably right.
Others have already mentioned some excellent vertical tab add-ons, so I'll post Tabs Aside, which is a super convenient way to save and load a window full of tabs. Saves having like 20 windows open with different stuff you don't want to lose.
It really depends. I do catering so some days there just isn't a job. When I have a gig it's usually 8-10 hours, but only maybe 2-6 of those are actually cooking and serving, the rest is logistics, prep and cleaning.
Finally found it in my youtube history. Took ages because I was thinking of the wrong celebrity chef. It's a sponsored / marketing video but mostly educational.
Good knife technique is in the wrist a lot, that's why you need a sharp one. I watched a video years ago by Heston Blumenthal that helped me heaps. I'll see if I can track it down for you.
I've been working in kitchens for about ten years. I was pretty much sedentary before I started too, and yeah, the first few weeks are the hardest, but you do get used to it. NGL it's hard work though. It's rough on your body, mind and soul. Good on you for taking steps now to look after yourself, I wish I had when I first started. Aside from @bermuda@beehaw.org's advice, here's some tips from an old line cook:
If there are rubber mats in your kitchen (this is OHS in some places), stay on them as much as possible. Aside from the non-slip aspect, the extra bit of cushioning is easier on your knees/ankles than tiles/concrete.
Other usual stuff like proper lifting technique.
If you're standing at a bench or grill for long periods try not to hunch over too much, it's easy to do if you're concentrating on what you're doing.
Alternate your posture by either bending your knees a little or spreading your legs a bit. Try not to stand flat footed for too long, and try to avoid keeping all your weight on one leg for long periods.
A good sharp knife that fits your hand along with proper cutting technique will save your wrists/shoulders from a lot of strain.
I kinda dig it. I have comically large hands so the big chunky controllers appeal to me. Don't think I'd ever use them detached but if there's a connector thing like for joycons I can see it working.
I feel like you're technically correct, but saying "fill a form" just sounds weird to a native English speaker.
