It's always a question of cost to benefit ratio.

Toss the crust

• Pro: No additional negative effect on your enjoyment of the food or your body
• Pro: compost and let the plants eat it
• Con: You cease to be a grown ass man

Eat the crust

• Con: Negative enjoyment
• Con: Extra Calorie consumed. More strain on the medical system.

If anything, eating the crust would be the "wasteful" decision. I'm sure if it were possible to get the same pizza without crust, all of these people would jump on that chance.

The smaller the pizza, the more crust there is relative to non-crust.

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good

That only applies to cash. The rich have the greater majority of their wealth in assets, so they likely won't even give a second thought to losing all of their cash. Who it's actually going to hurt are the middle class workers nearing retirement. The ones who make enough to have some semblance of a retirement fund and who have also moved this fund to cash to reduce volatility.

Are you okay? That's some serious word salad.

That sounds unlikely to me. If the school is wealthy, then so are their students' families.

Yep. It's part of their mating ritual. You can learn more about it at c/fuckcars.

Two of the four OF accounts seem to just be the athlete sharing behind the scene details about their Olympic journey and chatting with people. Not so clear for the other two.

All the more reason to do it. I'm very curious about what you'd come up with.

This makes sense if you start with the axiom that the state exists to serve those who are 18 and over. But it doesn't. It serves everyone. The age threshold is to ensure you have enough life experience to understand the impact of your vote.

There's the question of willingness, and then there's that of ability. A single person acting independently with no prior planning will quickly get shut down, and the world will be no better for it.

Having certain experiences means intimately knowing the problems affecting others in a similar situation, and that puts you in a better position to fix them.

I wouldn't say frozen milk is particularly far into processed territory.

Whole food is generally preferable, but protein powder is absolutely fine if that's the best you can do. Just take the route that's easiest to adhere to. You'll get much bigger benefits from simply hitting your macros than optimising their source and micronutrients and all that other jazz.

It's very Calorie dense and not very filling.

"Calorie in" means what your body absorbs. If it absorbs more, then the number is higher for the same amount of food, and vice versa.

I have no qualms about AI being used in products. But when you have to tell me that something is "powered by AI" as if that's your main selling point, then you do not have a good product. Tell me what it does, not how it does it.

I do, and then I forgot why I was on that website to begin with. Takes me forever to get my bearings back. I hate it.

I see people saying that ublock can get rid of those. If someone can share how, that would be awesome. My ublock only blocks ads.

You ever use a paper cup? That's basically what they are.
