Barbershop quartet singing (ala The Barbershop Harmony Society). Instant friends and such satisfaction to hear yourself lending a note into four-part chords. (It’s the basis of my username.)
Working out with weights
Unfortunately, I’m finding Lemmy 2023 just as shallow as Reddit 2023.
For those looking for a Lemmy weight loss community, visit !loseit@discuss.tchncs.de and help us grow one!
This is too severe and unhealthy.
Your body is burning not just fat tissue, but lean tissue as well, and likely so fast that it can’t replace it fast enough to keep up. Even with 5000 Fridays, you’re taking in 8000 a week which is less than 1200 a day, less than some old short inactive grandma would use to lose a few extra pounds (not from 270).
Weight loss puts increased demands upon the body. Gallstones, malnutrition, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances can happen when those demands exceed the body’s capability to cope with them. More minor side-effects include hair and nail problems, irregular female menstrual cycles, constipation, dizziness, fatigue, and headaches.
I just saw your post. Wanted to say hi. I lost from 298 and also lost pretty fast, but didn’t need to go all that severely. I also had a few goal-weight adjustments but I’ve kept it off basically for 8 years now (170s now, at 5’11 male).
Hey folks, send the EFF some of your loving money. They are worth it. They truly are watching our backs. Good people doing the good fight.
I heartily recommend Fox News*, but otherwise I’d suggest looking up hashtags of things you’re into and following people who like what you like. And follow other people on your own server too.
I love it!!
I have a few accounts that know my email and I didn’t get such a message.
could support up to 640kB of RAM
Oh, that’s right! It was expandable to that amount, but not necessarily out of the box to that amount. I forgot about that!
That reminds me of an old joke:
The three biggest lies:
One thing that I remember on clones was a timing switch. The IBM PC was slower than the clones, and games often didn’t run as expected unless you slowed down the processor.
The Apple II was biggest software/installed base, the Atari 800 had the best graphics, CP/M machines had established business software already.
My impressions: Apple II and Commodore weren’t really after the business market. CP/M machines were although I only knew of one guy that owned one (and he ran a BBS of all things from it). Those interested in Apple or Commodore and Atari were probably not trying to run a business of a lot of size. Don’t forget the Tandy TRS-80 stuff too.
That was my first one as well.
My first PC modem was the US Robotics Sportster 14400 FAX Modem. A cool feature was that you could flip a couple of bits and it would do 19200. USR reportedly grumbled about that breaking the warranty and using it against its design limits, but it worked great.
Absolutely. I drooled over several issues of that magazine! Good memories!
A lot of the comments so far are trying to stay with the negative connotation to exploitation. You exploit your comfortable shoes to walk further each day. You exploit the microwave oven’s ability to more quickly warm your coffee than the stove.
This is the same with discrimination. You choose the raspberry danish over the cheese danish. This is you practicing discrimination, and it’s fine.
Any evil in it comes from abuse or impact to yourself with respect to others, that second definition of exploitation in the OP.
