“Russia invades Ukraine.” “Um ackshually many Russians do not support this move.”

You understand how discussing groups as a singular entity works, right?

Extreme focus on protein these days is really weird, especially in Western diets high in meat. As long as you’re a relatively healthy adult and not pregnant, a healthy daily protein intake is about 0.8 grams of protein for every kilogram of weight. If you weigh 100 kg (about 220 lbs), you’re looking at 80g per day. On a 2000-Calorie diet, that’s about 15% of your calories from protein. This represents about 250 grams (~9 oz) of chicken breast. For your entire daily value. The entire rest of the day you could just drink water if you solely cared about protein intake. And this is again for someone who would be considered clinically obese by BMI were they 180 cm (5’11").

Colloquially we call meats and a select few plant-based foods “proteins” in the context of meal composition, but these are just called that because they’re especially rich sources. You’ll find yourself consuming protein all the time throughout the day even when you aren’t trying. Every 100 grams of oats, for example, has about 14 grams of protein. Factors like completeness matter too, of course, but realistically, you are getting enough protein unless you’re living on three square meals of ramen per day. Even then, for a random chicken-flavored instant ramen packet I found online, that’s 13 grams of protein, so three square meals would yield 39 grams, or about enough for someone weighing 50 kg (~110 lb). And even then, the 0.8 g/kg isn’t an absolute bare minimum beyond which you’ll become anemic and waste away and die; it’s a healthy amount.

What Western diets desperately do need to focus on, however, is fiber. As an example, only 5% of Americans meet or exceed their recommended daily intake of fiber.

Nutritional yeast, to add to what pugsnroses said.

One of the biggest impacts you can have on saving bee biodiversity is to, ironically, not buy honey. Far and away the biggest source of store-bought honey in the US is European honeybees (Apis mellifera), an invasive species introduced to North America in the 1600s. They outcompete native bee species and destroy biodiversity so the honey industry can turn a profit.

The gummy probably has gelatin in it which may have been extracted from the connective tissue of a pig, so it’s basically pork.

Do I get to be depraved and evil if I drink plant milk? I haven’t had a glass lately, but that actually sounds refreshing.

Something Happened, the other, far lesser-known work by Catch-22 author Joseph Heller. It’s too apples-to-oranges to throw around “better”, but I already love Catch-22 and still prefer Something Happened. It’s considerably longer, but in my opinion, it’s criminally overlooked.

I remember speculating as a (small) kid that the AI soldiers in Battlefront II’s local multiplayer might be real people employed by the developer. Not the brightest child was I.

Fair point! I entirely agree with that perspective in other areas. If we’re using this as an example, then I understand why, but I actually think this is one example where the change is a tangibly good thing.

Why did I think the centaur on the left was a man doing unspeakable things to a small elephant

• sudo is telling the computer to do this with root privileges.
• chmod sets permissions.
• Each digit of that three-digit number corresponds to the owner, the group, and other users, respectively. It’s 0–7, where 0 means no access and 7 means access to read, write, and execute. So 077 is the exact inverse of 700, where 077 means “the owner cannot access their own files, but everyone else can read, write, and execute them”. Corresponding 700 to asexuals is joking that nobody but the owner can even so much as touch the files.
• / is the root directory, i.e. the very top of the filesystem.
• The -R flag says to do this recursively downward; in this case, that’s starting from /.

So here, we’re modifying every single file on the entire system to be readable, writable, and executable by everyone but their owner. And yes, this is supposed to be extremely stupid.

And god knows McDonald’s wouldn’t want to be confused with inferior coffee.

I’m actually going to say that I think designing a restaurant for disastrously unhealthy fast food in a way that makes it look and feel like a playground shouldn’t be legal, and I’m happy to see them look as dull and unappealing as possible to young children.

The ongoing health crisis is so severe in no small part because of things like that 1990s picture getting kids addicted to trash. This post feels like a boomer from the 1960s yearning for the days of Joe Camel.

New Deltarune mod idea where Gay Putin, Bald JD Vance, and Xinnie the Pooh replace the main trio, respectively.

Should’ve gone the 4Kids One Piece route and turned it into a lollipop.

Did… Did they censor the cleavage?

It’s so funny too, because in the very next article, they correctly call another proposal “proposed”. Like, Linuxiac, what is this:

AIPAC dark money paying for itself thousands of times over.

I know it’s just an early mockup, but Calamares looks waaaay better than this, and I wouldn’t want to see this replace it in anything even close to this state. This is not slick.

Though serviceable, [Calamares is] not as slick as the initial setup on Windows, macOS or even GNOME.

Setup on Windows? Slick? Dude fuck, I do not want whatever vision this author wants for Linux if the minefield of dark patterns is “slick” to them. Calamares is the slickest, most straightforward OS install I’ve ever had, far surpassing Windows.
