  • If done well, this is straight up porn of the highest order.

  • Love this book. My sister read it to me when I was young.

  • What distro do you think they run on the Enterprise?

  • The effect on insulin resistance is mostly due to a caloric deficit / lowering of circulating triglycerides, but I think there is a study showing a slight advantage with IF, so you're right on that one, but it's not really a huge difference.

    Interesting about the lunches! Are you sure though that it isn't a food intolerance you're dealing with? Often when people cut out foods and say they feel better it's because they're not eating a food that bothers them.

  • Likely this also included people who just don't eat breakfast because they don't feel like it, which probably also includes people who have a honey bun and a cigarette for lunch and McDonald's for dinner. The results of the study also don't match up with other studies showing a positive result on health markers.

    There's nothing magical about intermittent fasting. It won't make you live longer, does nothing cool with your hormones, or any of that nonsense. But it is also a convenient, legitimate way for some people to reduce their overall caloric intake. Reducing caloric intake (and in turn losing fat) results in the improved health markers mentioned above.

  • "Man, ever since I started eating those rice crispy treats my poops have been solid and super comfy WAIT A MINUTE"

  • 775 Transunion

    778 Equifax

    I've got about 3x my salary in debt, but that includes a home. I keep my credit cards paid off every month and a large chunk of cash in my savings.

  • I had a friend who sold her old, highly used sandals. She made pretty good money off of them.

  • Bow cake-a bow bowww

    Very nice!

  • I defend myself this way as well.

  • Poor IE. Can't even rest in piece.

  • Espresso. I just feel like I'm above all the plebeians.

  • When I was 19 I decided that I was going to be honest about everything. I don't know why - I guess it just seemed like the "right" thing to do? I'd literally just say anything that came to mind, unfiltered. I lost several good friends and hurt my family members because of it. After that I realized that you just have to lie about some things, or at least keep silent about how you really feel.

  • I picked up some open ear headphones recently (Soundcore Aerofit) and I love them. I hate how buds feel in my ears, and the open ear headphones are super comfortable.

  • I can appreciate the room/head height of CUVs, but they don't need to look the way they do to accommodate that. There are a lot of other form factors that would suffice. CUVs look the way they do because car companies think that this is the look people want. Whether it is or not, I'm not sure.
