I find the premade mixes from Birdseye (sold basically everywhere that has frozen food) to be a pretty good lazy way to get a big meal. Usually a decent mix of meat, veggies, and grain, but the whole bag (3 servings) is only like 600-900 kcal. Sometimes it feels like an obscene amount of food for the calorie count.
Not bad for what’s basically a microwave dinner.
I just used an online calculator. It said something like 1500 kcal a day for my activity level to maintain weight.
I don’t really count calories, but I do look to get a general idea of what a meal or a snack is. Sometimes I’m way over, sometimes I’m way under, it’s all about balance and being in the ballpark.
I averaged in the ballpark of 12 miles a day for over a week when I visited Chicago. Woke up around 9 every day and basically didn’t sit until 9-10. I was sore for a while afterwards.
You joke, but since you got the jab I can guarantee you will die.
(Just not any faster than normal…)
Don’t they use different colors for capital vs lowercase vs number vs symbol?
It’ll never happen, even if there was the will to do it the city doesn’t have the money (or the tax base to bring in that kind of money).
That’s what I’m saying though, we got rid of those regulations, and it still doesn’t matter. Banks want parking. Banks limit height. Banks limit unit counts. Developers routinely propose some pretty decent housing products, where they’ve run the numbers and they work, then go to get it financed and it very rapidly gets cut in half and turned to shit.
The only solution is for the city to finance and build themselves.
1: change zoning laws to allow more multifamily construction
Our city did this and it hasn’t helped at all, because banks won’t finance it. No minimum parking, no height limit, no maximum FAR, no maximum unit count.
this shortage is entirely caused by cities preventing construction of everything but single family homes So I work in a field closely related to this, and the issue is less cities and more banks. The regulations in my city are basically: “if it’s housing, no regulations”. No minimum parking, no maximum density, no height limit, etc etc. But the banks? Won’t finance over ~22 stories. Or over ~200 units. Or parked less than 2:1. So we end up with only these short towers that are 50% parking podiums, where units are expensive AF because they have to pay for $100,000+ of parking per unit, not to mention the astronomical land prices being less diluted.
The only solution is for the city itself to start financing construction (and realistically doing the development themselves too), but that’s never going to happen.
Most real estate is owned by “123 street LLC”, meaning each LLC owns a single house/building. I’m not even sure how you would get around that realistically, and it’s not just companies that do that. If I ever get to the position of buying a house (…yeah right lol), I intend to do the same thing.
On top of that it gets weird with multiple houses because they’re in different locations with different tax rates and AHJs. Even within the same city you can be paying taxes to different counties. I’d like to see something like owning 2 houses = 2x taxes, 3 = 3x, etc. But then people could game it based on different tax rates, so you’d have to have a system to apply it to each AHJ equally.
Another vote for DDG. I honestly didn’t realize Google had gone to shit, because I haven’t used them for anything in the last 5 years (which is wild for me to think about, because I used to be a huge Google fanboy in the G+/Hangouts/Google Now/Nexus era).
That one is really, really bad though.
The one on the Mix 4 on the other hand was pretty great, but the camera quality suffered.
Yeah you can preview this cycle by looking at Cadillac. They were among the first to go touch-only with Cue in the early 2010s, started fading back in physical buttons with new models in the late 2010s, and on their newest models now have a full set of very nice custom buttons not shared from the GM parts bin.
I use AODnotify to effectively do the same thing. It animates a ring around either the display (when the screen is “off”), or the camera cutout when it’s on.
Varies wildly from phone to phone. I prefer the in screen detectors, since they work great when your phone is on your desk or in a phone dock/charger. They need to be implemented well though.
The one on my Huawei P30 was fantastic. The one on my Pixel 6 was ass, the one on my Pixel 8 is good.
The one on the 6 was ass even without a screen protector, the one on the 8 is good even with one.
What’s the problem with Namecheap? I’ve been with them since GoDaddy got on the shit list, but I’m not against moving again.
Unfortunately I picked the wrong specialty (architecture). Still trying to get licensed by the end of the year, that’s the only chance I have at another country maybe recognizing my degree. Regardless, it’s not very in-demand.
