weeks ago I found out I'm getting a bit fatter and I don't like that. I started running and working out 2 hours a day a week ago.

My diet so far: on a budget, but without extras like artificial sauces or ready to eat meals. I usually eat lots of whole bread without anything on it (I used to mix it with cheese or butter, but Iḿ cutting that out), lots of turkey breasts to prepare stews with tofu, veggies like cabbage, carrot and cauliflower, no pastries, no alcohol. No coffee but tea.

I invariably have to eat bread with my meals, because otherwise I won't feel full, but I also eat bread at night and apparently, carbohydrates are not supposed to be ingested that late. What could I substitute bread with?

I run before having breakfast, but I don't know if I should dinner less and reduce my bread intake at dinner. OTOH going to bed feeling hungry seems to be a bad idea, or am I supposed to go to sleep feeling hungry? Is there any advantage to doing this?

I may eat a cheese sandwich while at work if I have nothing else at hand.

What works for you?

Let's keep things simple two rules.

• No giving sentience, This is a no brainer issue.
• Let's keep it to beings under the Animilia kingdom. "mutated virus/bacteria" is a common trope.

To start:

Let's modify ants to have lungs.

Most insects are constrained by the amount of oxygen they can acquire through their exoskeleton.

Imagine how big they can get if they didn't have that constraint?

my real question is do you like the pressure in Neuronation (a game). On some test you know can solve it if not restricted by time.

I broadening it up, to see more opinion like in the job market nowadays asking for able to work under pressure.

So.. for me in the context of Neuronation (and maybe in the real job) I do.. not like it but force myself to do it, let it go if i fail, and play next test. im quite old btw, and i don't think can pass the Neuronation test that quick even im young

very similar question to my last one but this time with management, not a coworker.

Similar because she keeps pestering me with what to her seems to be an important issue. She doesn't seem to understand that I'm there to work and not to socialize. On our last conversation she told me we're a big family and that I'm welcomed to be sincere with her with a big smile, to me a fake one.

So many red flags I wanted to run, but I still have to articulate it in office speak so she stops pestering me.

Context is an exit interview management is going to use to try and convince me to stay, but I don't want to work there anymore, too much drama and cattiness over dumb crap.

So I found out from my grandma that my Facebook account got hacked. I haven't used it in like a decade and don't care about it, but I also don't want it being used to potentially scam people.

I told everyone I know who still uses FB to block and report the account. Today I was trying to get the account shut down and it is now locked (says it's not visible and can't be used by anyone). Is that enough to prevent it from being used for malicious purposes? My only goal is to keep people like my grandma from getting scammed.

I'm hoping it being locked is enough to solve the problem but wanted some extra feedback from people who maybe know more than me :)

For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

From on MGM+ is absolutely fantastic. I love the mystery, the horror, and everything else about it. I am excited to see where it goes. I also absolutely love Foundation on Apple TV+, amazing CGI and fantastic world (or universe) building.

As a 6'2 man the clothes I find which are right for my height are often very loose on me. And if I worry about the waist I look like a kid who grew a lot in the past 2 months and everything is too short for me.

Its not entirely universal, some stores are better than others. And I wear a lot of loose casual t-shirts so thats fine too. But finding dress shirts means some places work, some don't.

Very unique and unpopular opinion, I know, but I hate watching ads during a show. Fuck the advertisers; I refuse to pay attention.

Rather than doom scroll, I'd love to hear what you think I should do when ads are on.

To make things challenging:

*often I'm pinned to the couch by my senior dog who I'm loathe to move unnecessarily, so getting up and doing squats is often out

*loud activities are probably out, see above

*be specific, 'I play games on my phone' - but what can you play casually, for 30s at a time (for example) and then happily go back to watching your show?

*use adblockers bla bla, not always possible and not in the spirit of my request.

That being said, all suggestions are great - I'm sure we'll all get something from it. Stick it to the man!

I have a project stopped a couple of months ago and I want to resume it.

I started for Mobiles, but after a little more research I realized that it was more complicated than I thought, and I don't know if it can have the impact I would like it to have (which is not much either).

So I don't know if I should concentrate more on PC development until I have a little more experience and then make the leap to mobile, or should it be the other way around? start with mobile and then to PC?

What would be the most profitable path in terms of learning and, if possible, generate a modest income?

Honestly I would kill for hadestown the musical as an animated movie. Or most musicals for that.

For the first time in my adult life I'm not at college on Halloween (just graduated) and I'm passing out the candy for my household. I always knew going without a costume on Halloween was lame but now that I'm seeing it from the eyes of an adult passing out candy, I can see it is actually REALLY lame. Do y'all pass out candy to kids not wearing a costume on Halloween?

Edit: The comments here are pretty unanimously on the side of passing out candy no matter what, and I don't disagree. Trick or treat is a very big thing in my neighborhood, so it has surprised me to see as many kids without costumes as I have. Still, I try to not make assumptions, I'll just be a chill adult and do the job of passing out the candy either way. I appreciate yall's input!

I’ll go first. I love watching Over The Garden Wall every October, either on Halloween or a bit earlier. What about you?

I will go first with the John Wick 4 Killer poker scene and of course Casino Royale. Not looking for movies with plots completely based on card playing.(like 21) Please post your favourite scenes. Cheers

Started doing simple dumbbell exercises recently and was curious about what others are doing.
Been trying simple neck exercises too. No weights, just chintucks and isometrics.

Please do share your experience/suggestions/opinions on the it and related topics like sports, calisthenics, general physical health etc.

Do you know any exercises that are rare? Or ones that seem special to your locality?

Regarding food:
How do you meet your protein or calorie goals? How do you track it? Especially food that is local to your place.

On a tangent:
Are there cool plants that are less known or that'd be useful if more people tried growing and including them in their diets? Do mention your locality or climate of the plant.

I will start by what I know:

• 404 Media [Tech news].
• aftermath [Gaming news].

Any others?
