Yeah, I think the main thing that makes intermittent fasting effective is exactly this. I don’t believe that there’s anything magical about eating in a time window in itself but not taking in those extra little snacks that all add up is big.

Dang, that’s quite a few people. Maybe we can stop linking our identity to a simple number in the US sometime? That would be swell.

I pay for Premium now since it includes music streaming which is convenient to use. If they raise the price too much, I’ll absolutely just go back to mp3s and deal with the ads on YouTube and just watch less content on there. $15 is about my cap before I do that.

Just got the Pixel 6a when it was super cheap for Prime Day because my Note 9 was acting up even after a factory reset and wouldn’t hold a charge for the day. I love it. It does everything I need a phone to do and is zippy fast. I don’t see myself every spending a lot of money on a phone again unless it has some revolutionary new feature… but I think those days are over. If this line stays affordable and high quality, I’ll probably go for another with my next phone too

I try explaining this to fellow Americans that you end up paying much less in the end and never have the stress of how you’re going to afford this stuff (or possibly even lose everything to a sudden health problem) but it falls on deaf ears if they’ve already been brainwashed. They refuse to hear that other countries have things figured out to make the lives of their citizens much more enjoyable.

Always been a fan of subtitles once a game series has too many entries. I’m especially not fond of publishers calling games the same name as one previously released unless it’s a substantial reboot decades later.
