Communism
  • Right, I get you now.

    My comment was directed to people who are constanly talking about the same topic and do no speak about anything else and I specially have some extra annoyace for people doing that with politics. Even if I confront you with "You're so quiet" and then you let it out, it will still be annoyed, no matter if I asked first or not. Like, me inviting you to open is very different than me signing up for a unending hangout-tracendent only-about-communism discussion...

    The comic is missing the frames with the other guy trying to change the topic and the other person perpetually stearing the conversation back to the same topic, which more often than not, I will entail some diaregard for the other party(s) in the convo.

    A: Man, I broke my leg B: aw shit, that must suck, right? because you can't do the things you like I mean braking your leg in this shitty system, I wish we could have a system...

    A: Yo, look, I bought this really cool thing that I have been wanted for years! B: Cool! what does it do? ah.. It was probably made by some slave in a sweatshop, you know? If we were in communinsm those would probably be made by some happy people instead!

    (Dumb examples, I know, but Im no writer.)

    I do admit, that me starting my comment with "As a commie" do makes my comment kinda obtuse and nonsense...

    I stand by it tho. This kind of person is just very annoying to me, independent of the topic. Im quite vocal about my political views, but there's too much in my life to only talk about the one belive I have.

  • MDMA for PTSD: Three studies retracted on heels of FDA rejection
  • Love mdma, I belive that it could help PTSD, but I agree with you, is no benefit for anyone to rush such a thing.

    The whole vive is "they stopted it cause is "drugs", but like, those are good reasons to stop any trials.

  • How exactly does one eat 1500 calories a day?
  • Well... Is not a caveman theory... Is actually kind of a new topic in nutrition...

    This paper even address the first law of thermodymics, which you really do not seem to understad. Bodies do not use 100% of the energy in your food, the usaged percentage is variable and what is not use you just shit, conserving the 1st law.

    And true, people go back to eat too much, but you can't assure that 100% of the cases of weight regain after diet are coused because of that, there are:

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6082688/

    This is quite the hot topics between nutrition experts, but I'm guessing you already know that, since your seem to belive to already have analysed all possible information about this ultra-complex topic.

    Yes, CICO works most of the time if you count well enough, but there are somw cases where your hormones will just fuck you over.

    I really can't tell if you're trolling or if you reaaaaaaallyyyyy think you know what the 1st law actually means but are not capable enough to see that open systems are not bound by it in the way you think they are.

    https://bookdown.org/asvn90/Understanding-Thermodynamics/the-first-law-for-open-systems.html

    Take a look at chapter 5.2, it explains how the 1st law applies to open systems -like your body, in case you don't get why I am talking about open systems-

    In shot

    Food = energy + shit (+others)

    You can shit more or less, depending on how your body process food. I hope that one is simple enough for you.

    Also: maybe is easier to understand https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPrjP4A_X4s

  • How exactly does one eat 1500 calories a day?
  • Here is a explanation:

    When you eat, your body process the food and tries to utilize it for different things (Nutrients absorpsion, muscle/fat/bone repair and creation and so on). This processes are not 100% independent and they are modulated via several ways, as an example insulin regulates(or inhibits, depends who you ask) lyposis, which is the fat burning process.

    There are a large number of ways to regulate all of this process and to some extend they all regulate each other constantly.

    Now, the yoyo effect, i.e. ganing lots of ways after finishing a diet: After your body runs in a deficit for a whiley your body is behaving as is food was scarse then, when you increase your calorie intake your body uses its enzymes, hormones and whatnot to assure that the most energy is saved, it can do this, going back to the fat example by raising your insuling levels more than usual and so, storing more energy from the same meal.

    It makes sense from a evolutionary view also, your body can't try to store everything when your starving, since it needs the extra effort to go get food, then, when you find the food it tries to store it all and also, since it has enough you can spare some hours of letargy, i.e. why peoole get sleepy after a big meal. Also relevant, when you are in a deficit your body starts pumpling growth hormones, even tho it has nothing to grow off, but the hormone is there to kick start creation as soon as some extra energy is avaliable.

    Of course that, compunded with how normally people tent to underestimate their calorie intake is even worst. Which happens a lot.

  • Anon rides a bike
  • where I live is quite common to ride bikes for transportation, lots of places have stickers disallowing riding the bikes in the buidings

    You can still take the bike in in some cases, but not ride it.

  • Why spend money on ChatGPT?
  • Nobody's stupid enough to

    Every sentence that begins this way is wrong.

    Nobody is stupid enough to belive that every sentence that begings with "Nobody's stupid enough" is automatically wrong

    Im high

  • Massive issues with sleep and desperate for a solution.
  • Op, I have been suffering from sleep issues for years, what I found it works:

    1. Sleep/Awake (roughtly) at the same time every day
    2. No alcohol
    3. No Caffeine after 15:00
    4. Weed (if you don't want/can getting high, CBD is legal almost everywhere, but tbh CBD does nothing for me
    5. Melotonin (otc, helps sleep, not adictive)
    6. Sports
  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)
  • I'll coincide with you in that first-aid-quick-repairs is something people should in the best of cases know how to do, but setting a envirental variable or installing a package is not a "simple thing". I've worked with engineers that programmed math models for a living that had no idea what a enviromental varible even was. Yes is easy to do, but the concept behind it, what it is, what it does and why are not simple, without the right background or the will to learn about the topic.

    And, about user and owner. Sure, I get your point and personally I share it. But again, that is an opinion, tell a non-interested-user that they don't really own their rig until they know how to use the terminal and I assure you that most of them will disagree.

    Edit cause I wrongly posted before finishing: Comparing uncloging -manually pushing and pull a bar- or chaning a light -turn left, change, then right- or a breaker -literally just pulling a tab up- are WAY simpler actions. Yes, running apt upgrade is easy, but how you know is all well? That it work? + if I run apt update everyday I see almost no diference in my system, why should I even do something like that
