Also why not have the homepage be a feed, let me scroll for a bit before forcing me to sign up

You can, but you need to be on an instance, go to https://loops.video for that experience. joinloops.org is more of an onboarding site it seems

Because storing, analyzing, and selling access to your data is massively profitable and they don’t care what the (not even vocal) privacy focused minority wants.

Absolute nonsense. The claim is that if I produce 2.5watts per kg in body weight for 2 hours, I’m not going to burn any extra calories? So when I “bonk” and exhaust glycogen stores due to underfueling that’s actually not true?

I think that the claim is that what you're experiencing absolutely does happen, and your body responds by cutting corners on your baseline when you're sleeping or sitting around on the couch to avoid you starving to death (because it doesn't know that you can trivially increase your food intake if needs must).

Yes, it's in what they're responding to:

> The authors hypothesized that it could be that the body reduces caloric spend on other things, like stress responses


Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you are likely over training. Check out heart rate zones, optimal workouts for weight loss/muscle gain. IE for endurance sports most of your training time should be zone 2, which if casually “a level of breathing where you could have a conversation”. So not breathing hard. It’s counterintuitive, but you should do workouts pretty close to easy.

I am... not sold on this? The adaptations happen quite fast and you should get quite fast to have the basiline ability for training quite high, so I would say push through the first months. Personally, I feel no adverse cognitive effects form training. On the contrary. So I'm a bit confused a bit about this whole conversation.

Training light is a great way of winding up doing a whole lot of nothing.


Yeah, in special if you "stop-start-stop" constantly.

Give time to ramp-up. I like to start 2-3 days with things like the "7 minute workout" before dive in into anything more complicated.

Is better quantity than "quality" until you actually can put the discipline and consistency. If not, just walk is good enough


Holy 3-6mg of caffeine per kg is a shit ton. That’s 2-4 cups of coffee for me!

https://vo2maxpro.com/blog/does-caffeine-improve-vo2-max

They list a study and more info on that page. Probably why almost all pre-workouts include caffeine. Some push for 300mg per serving.

Yohimbe gives some weird heart effects also.


That doesn’t seem a lot to me at all, and coffee seems to have health benefits up to doses exceeding that.

yeah that's a ridiculous amount. I'd be so jittery there's no way I'd be able to workout after taking that much. If I have more than one cup of coffee in a single sitting I get so anxious I can't even take proper deep breaths.

Seven for my ~140kg arse. Not sure how healthily this scales.

That sounds like some weak coffee. Espresso is about 150mg for a double shot I thought?

4 cups of coffee is considered a lot?

Chrome has them too :)

Yeah, because chrome is required to use -safari- webkit too, apple won't allow alternative browsers on the app store.

Except in the EU, but they don't allow it globally so no sane company is going to invest time into building a browser for iOS while apple is intentionally region-locking the ability to install them.

So yeah, on iOS, rendering bugs on Chrome are quite often apple's fault, and the Chrome team can't fix em.


That UI is surprisingly ugly! Windows XP vibes but not in a good way

So many bugs in this version of iOS, ive never seen anything like it. The UI for so many websites is mildly broken or misaligned now, keyboard randomly has a noticeable lag, audio does not return to normal volume if a background app makes a noise for a moment, and many more. Really awful, I’ve never wanted to downgrade iOS back to the old version until now.

19 - why not just dump water into the tank and flush like normal? Dumping water into the bowl directly is just more complex than letting the existing lever do it.


Their offers are very hard to claim - only eligible to be used in their store, only given after making a purchase in their store, among other random strings. I tried to claim the same offer but could never actually get it.


That sounds right. I looked through the terms of the offer and it looked pretty onerous. I almost get the feeling they're trying to use my own hatred of the banks and desire to screw them out of $45 to trick me
