At last! A diet/nutrition article that talks about the 'burden of decision making' in the context of diet. One of my pet peeves is that this aspect isn't given enough weight.
"On any given day, humans make an estimated 300 decisions about food'.
hrmm that seems like a lot..
Good article though.
It's one of the things I like about meal prep. If I make a dozen chicken curries, a dozen chilli and a doz apricot chicken, that's a months worth of meals if I eat at least one every day. Pita salad protein wrap for another meal. Suddenly my food decisions are way down. Fruit and nuts for clean nibbles. Ice creams on a stick, two biscuits or PBnJ for dirty nibbles. Water or protein shake for drinks. That's most of the thinking taken out of it. Every few weeks I crave something I haven't made myself which is usually banh mi, hsp or pizza as that's what's good around here.
I always buy tomatoes, cucumbers, green leafies and a salad mix weekly then all I have to do is think up a protein to have with them for those days when I can't be bothered to think.
Happy 2nd Saturday guys.
Last bougie breakfast for the hams today. Kibble w/ egg and basil topped with some parmesan lol. Actually ate the basil.
Probably the most polite dog I've met with food. Set it down in front of him and he just stands there for a minute looking at you wondering what the catch is.
Here he is wondering if there are seconds (hopefully vid works this time):

Ahh he's so damn glorious!!
Has anyone ever plugged their desktop pc into a large 4k TV for gaming?
If so, how was it?
Theres a game I want to play with friends but it's only on pc and I don't want to sit at my desk to play it.
Curious what other peoples experiences are.
Yes.
We have a pc permanently slaved to the tv for media and gaming. It's fucken awesome.
You do need to blow up the font sizes to be able to read system shit though.
Fucked up last night and got boba with a friend. My body must be extremely sensitive to caffeine, or I just drank it too late because I couldn't sleep until 3am last night despite waking up at 7am yesterday. Was supposed to do some uni work and go down to the beach with the fam, but my head is pounding. Going to take it kind of easy and hopefully get my work done. Not going to let this ruin my day.
Contemplating having a drink tonight. Margaritas or Hard Solos. Hmm.
Margaritas. The salt will replace what you lose to sweat in the heat today. Plus hard solo is just expensive solo and vodka.
First up, I'm inside with the air con on. Still working hard but without the sweat.
Secondly, 30 pack of Solo + Smirnoff = Hard Solo or harder Solo if I choose to. Yeah pre-mixed Hard Solos are ok for travellers but I'm at home. And this is what I have chosen.

Red chicken curry please, with bamboo and snow peas. How many decisions is that?

Mmmmmmm
I'm rewatching Arrival after having watched Mickey 17 yesterday and going "what was that movie where they try to talk to the aliens". It's cracking me up that the top realdebrid result is from a torrent titled "41 best movies to watch when stoned (all High IMDB)"
I really couldn't remember so much from this movie though, so it's kind of nice watching it all over again. Can't believe it's 9 years old. I suppose in a few years the movie will finally be dated by the fact that they didn't use AI to analyse the aliens' language immediately
Easily ranks in my top 10 favourite sci fi movies. Villeneuve has yet to make a bad movie itโs astonishing
I feel changed after watching it. It's truly a masterpiece. What are your other top sci fi movies? I'm feeling inspired
All the usual suspects you would imagine
Blade Runner (and its sequel)
Alien (and its sequel)
Dune (even the David Lynch version)
Interstellar
5th Element
Star Wars (OT)
District 9
Annihilation
Gattaca
Chronicles of Riddick
You've got great taste!
What about event horizon?
Itโs a good one but definitely not a top ten for me.
