What evidence do you have that it's healthy? Everything I've seen points to meat being linked to things like heart disease and cancer.

Also, how do you rationalize choosing a diet that maximizes animal suffering and environmental harm?

It's more like, you feel scared so you stick with what you know. Fear causes people to revert to a more tribalist mentality.

Looks cool, and I'll check it out on release. If you want beta testers though, make it easier to sign up. I'm not going to write an essay just to maybe get beta access.

Yep. Strong bases feel soapy to the touch, not because they are, but because they're literally turning your skin into soap almost instantly.

Well if you do try medication, it's either going to work and improve your life, or not and you can stop taking it.

Pencil with the tip broken off on paper.

High pitched noises (CRT displays, dyson vacuums)

Sweating while wearing full clothing

Microfiber hand towels that don't properly absorb water

The McDonald's coffee thing was because it was way hotter than necessary, and caused severe burns. So not as frivolous as it was made to seem.

What scifi movies/books do you like, then? Because I would say most great scifi is political.

My point is that all these factors are real, and they do tip the scale, but at the end of the day, how much you eat determines whether you gain or lose weight.

I'm not saying other factors can't make a significant difference. (genetics and epigenetics play a role.) I'm also not saying that it's easy. (food, especially fast food can light up people's brains in a way that mirrors drug addiction.)

But if you eat less while burning the same number of calories, you WILL lose weight. That's not an opinion, it's a law of physics.

There is variability in the human metabolism, for sure, but CICO is thermodynamics. There's not a person on the planet who can gain weight without eating.

I kinda don't hate this, if it's an eternal youth / total invincibility sort of thing, and existing in the vacuum of space isn't uncomfortable.

Actually, with future technology it might be possible to modify our brains to make a sort of shared virtual dream world, with an avatar-style neural connection. Not a bad way to spend eternity.

Also even without brain/body modification, we might be able to train ourselves to hibernate and just wait for a big quantum fluctuation. Assuming the universe doesn't have an end, we would eventually meet intelligent life, even humans, again.

I'm honestly undecided. As a mortal human, I don't really know if I want true immortality or not.

If this was just some minor crime, sounds great honestly. I definitely draw the line at the murder of innocents though. Not worth it.

Excellent monkey's paw. I thought I was being specific, but apparently not even close. Definitely not worth it.

The video shows how Honey doesn't actually get you the best deals, with 'approved' discounts. I don't care about affiliate links either, but I certainly don't want to be making Paypal so much money for no reason.

Realistic. Doesn't the monkey's paw have to actually grant the wish though?

The notifications are coming from Google Play Services.

Look into GrapheneOS. They have a sandboxed play services implementation, and you can have multiple sandboxed users, e.g. one for foss apps, one for google and proprietary apps.

Also try TrackerControl on f-droid, it lets you block trackers from apps. You'll still have Google to worry about though.

I meet a beautiful intelligent woman, we are the perfect match for each other, we fall in love, get married and live happily ever after.

Yeah, in general it's the same support as on Windows.

I think it depends a lot on the game. Early RTX games have basically no difference, but RTGI in modern games can have a huge effect. I would argue it's already pretty much manditory in The Finals, for example.

Well technically with early access games, it would be >0%. Although they didn't know that back in 2023...
