You can't outrun a bad diet. If you're doing all that and are still unhealthy, your main culprit is your diet.

How long have you been doing that?

That wouldn't work. You could simply hand off the verification card to someone underage.

Granted you could have an adult login to one of these sites then let a minor interact with the site, but that puts the liability on the adult who logged in.

If you are going on a +10 hour drive to visit family for a holiday (mid-range EVs adds 50% to the travel time, so that'll turn into a 16 hr trip), it's cheaper to rent a gas car to drive there. You only rent the car for the time you're traveling, you don't keep renting it while you're at your destination thus you only rent it for 2 days. The average car rental in USA is $50 to $80 a day.

If you take into account the cost of booking a hotel in the middle to survive a full day of driving, the gas rental is far cheaper.

If you take into account the total cost of ownership, comparing total cost of a gas car vs total cost of an EV along with a couple gas rentals a year, the EV is still cheaper even if those individual trips cost a bit more. I have a mid-range EV. I've performed these calculations. Granted I still don't rent the gas vehicle as driving long distance in an EV is noticeably less stressful than driving in an ICE vehicle. You don't notice how much the vibration of an ICE engine slowly wears you out until it's no longer there. I listen to audiobooks so the extra driving time doesn't bother me. Work form home also means my hours are more flexible so I don't have to factor in vacation time. If that mattered, I'd just fly. Annoyingly, the cost to fly tends to be very similar to the cost of driving which sometimes makes it hard to decide on which option to pick. You can't pick the cheaper option when everything costs the same.

In other words, the input data was very poor. Please accuracy tell me everything you ate in the last 4 years, including the amounts of things such as the amount of salt and pepper you added to each meal and the amount of creamer you added or didn't add to your various cups of coffee across that timeframe.

If they don't follow this study with another one directly looking at dosing people with just caffeine, then the study is just statistical propaganda.

You can't just whip out that phrase and wave it around to solve all your problems. What is the moderate amount of water? What is the moderate amount of alcohol (fyi, the negatives outweigh the benefits at all doses)? Moderate amount of salt? Etc... Everything has a different moderate amount and those amounts all dynamically change based on other factors.

Saying to just keep to moderate amounts is a bullshit argument if you don't specify what those amounts are. It's the opposite of good advice. It means "I don't have a clue what's healthy or not so I'll just take a little bit of everything and hope the good things outweigh the bad things." That's not how nutrition should work. Science lets us do better than that.

True, but you're missing that each owner of the vehicle would have to buy that subscription. The $500 is a one time cost. $415 might be paid by owner 1 then paid again by owner 2 and finally by owner 3.

BMW isn't going through all the effort and risk of creating subscription services if it isn't going to earn them more money. That also means on average it's costing people more.

You can increase an audiobook's playback speed. I used to listen to books at around 200%. I could re-listen to them at 250%. Nowadays I'm normally at 130%... My brain must be aging or maybe modern books are faster now or something.

It's also difficult to read while driving, mowing the law, doing dishes, etc... You can consume audio content while doing all of those things.

However as you pointed out, they are horrific at trying to find a specific point in the story or skimming through one.

Good point.

Yeah, none of the companies I've worked at have notified workers. Sometimes they notify managers. Last time I was laid off no one told my project manager. I had a customer deliverable due in three days and if I hadn't sent him a goodbye email on my way out (they can't instantly deactivate your account when you're working from home and you're let go over Zoom) he wouldn't have known I was gone until after the deliverable was missed. It would have been a major issue. No clue what happened after I left. 3 days is a quick ramp up time. I was the sole developer on the project.

You can try magnesium for depression. It's up to 40% effective (active placebo is 30%). Take it for 3 weeks. It'll work by then if it's working for you. Worked for me. My depressive thoughts slowly melted away until I suddenly realized I hadn't thought about suicide within the past few days. Perhaps you're on an edge and your anxiety makes you cross over. It's unknown if the anti-depressant effect is from a lack of the mineral itself or from it's anti-inflammatory properties.

For auto-immune issues, the carnivore diet is the best non-medical treatment for that. I'd suggest giving it a serious look. It helps stabilize your mood too.

"If you don't come back, I'll have someone assassinate you. See attached picture of your car in your driveway."

It's not hard to manipulate someone into coming back. It's even easier to manipulate teenagers who care about their social image.

I was in a crash a couple years ago and that was my first concern too. Second was to ensure no bones were broken. Third was to check if the other guy was dead. Well, technically the very first thing I did was glance up to double check that indeed I had the green light. Then my brain went "Get Out Of The Car. Get Out Of The Car."

The other car was against my driver's side door so I had to crawl to the other side to get out.

AI has learned the pattern of the language. It's a small but very meaningful difference.

There are tons of problems with the items listed. You can't go by random things you see on random web blogs (nor the AIs trained on them). You have to look at the direct research into how the body works and what the body does with the food you give it.

Golden Syrup isn't normal sugar. It's processed to free up the fructose and glucose as well as caramelized. Fructose messes up your leptin response. Any foods that have higher availability of fructose will push you to you overate as they'll suppress your satiety signals. Sugar contributes to heart disease and cancer, so claiming "it's just sugar" is a very poor argument anyway. (Contributes to cancer because it significantly down regulates your immune system for 5 hours after you eat it. So nowadays that's 15+ hours for most people when your immune system is slower at killing off new cancer cells.)

High-fat meat isn't a problem. Them being bad is outdated research. Meat is only bad if that's the only thing you eat (low fat and low carb). Salt only matters to a small portion of the population. Chances are that's not you. However specific rations of fat, salt, and carbs combine to make food more addicting which results in overeating. That is a problem.

Gluten is hard for a lot of people to digest properly. It significantly contributes to leaky gut regardless of if you notice symptoms or not.

Bread in the USA used to be made with iodine. After the iodine fear craze, it's now made with bromide (doesn't have to be listed on the label. Why? I don't know). Bromide isn't good for you. It completes with iodine in your body and results in malformed molecules which then don't function properly. That's only one of the many issues with bread. Bread is better than nothing, but it's not a health food.

Lobbyists got their hands on milk formula. It's pretty bad compared to would it could be.

Flavorings trick your body into thinking the food has nutrients it doesn't. When you're low on those nutrients, your body will make you crave those foods thinking it'll get those nutrients. It doesn't get them, so you end up overeating and staying malnourished.

The root problem with mass produced food is that's it's produced for profit and thus companies have spent tones on research on how to make their food more addicting. That is the main motivation of food creators: profit. The health of that food is of little concern. We could have healthy ultra-processed food. We don't because there's no profit in it. Lying that your food is healthy is far easier and cheaper and your addictive food will sell more than actually healthy processed food.

Look into the history of the food industry. It's really bad what they used to do and get away with. It's only gotten a little better. The industry as a whole is still very corrupt.
