Audiobooks with earphones? There's wispersync so your progress matches across devices. It's also much cheaper to buy an audiobook if you have the epub/mobi/kindle version

I use a version of this, it's based on the neti pot from india. Completely natural technique and does more than clearing our your sinus. It also stops any post nasal drip, Globus (lump in the throat) and can help with snoring.

I use flo sinus flush

Hahaha. That's pretty good reminds me of my early installs.

Edit: Just saw the original, much better!

Is that what you want, a conversation to end with a block? I thought this whole post and your further comments have been about active vs passive engagement.

I don't think you've said anything that deserves a block. I disagree with what you've said and how you've said it. However, not once have you personally attacked or insulted me.

Edit: grammar

Too bad spectators like you are only here to downvote in disagreement, not giving any input.

A downvote is an input to the conversation, that's the point of the downvote. Not everyone wants to write an essay or argue with someone. Also what's the point of reiterating someone's else point, that's what the upvote is for.

You try to boost your score, everyone can see it, almost no one else do that. Have you tried not upvoting yourself?

Was my last comment boosted? You replied within ~10mins. But you're not wrong upvoting your own comment is a reddit hangover of having your own post automatically self upvoted. I still think it's a sane default. It's not about boosting my comments for visibility and rep points. Why would I upvote the only comment on a comment chain for visibility? If I was concerned about rep points, I would be commenting and posting more.

You almost always post/coment with an antagonistic approach. You're also so abrasive with how you communicate that it almost asks people "verbally" spar with you. I'm not just talking about this thread.

I think, I understand that you see all of this just as a conversation. I also respect that you don't downvote other people's comment that you disagree with. But dam everytime I see you, you're almost asking anyone to argue with you.

Edit: still learning how to format properly.

It's likely a Kingfish sashimi.

Dam, every page of my mags have you on it saying something controversial. What's going on? Looks like you've still got the reddit mentality of trying be the loudest.

Only having a report option will drown the very limited mods we do have. A lot of the communities are new and still finding their voice.

The 2nd article goes into more details

"Ultra-processing degrades the internal structure or “food matrix,” the complex internal structure that not only holds the corn together, but influences the bio-availability of the nutrients, how our bodies use the food and whether we feel full after eating it."
...
"But the process also appears to accelerate the speed at which our digestive tracts absorb glucose and other nutrients from food, causing greater spikes in blood sugar and insulin levels, studies show."
...
“"Extrusion cooking at very drastic pressures and temperatures is a kind of predigestion of your food,” said Anthony Fardet, a nutrition scientist at the French National Institute for Agriculture, Food, and Environment who studies the effects of food processing on health."

I also agree that a study of 20 adults is absurd.

Just steal the image and put the source in the body text. That way you're not redirecting everyone to reddit. Sort of defeats the purpose of the protests.

I haven't seen that vid in ages, didn't expect it here.

[-] RandoMcGuvins@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Reddit feels like people are yelling to be heard. Kbin feels like a conversation. I'm also impressed with how chill kbin is.

I miss the niche communities but until they are made I can post to the main mag.
