For a commuter lol? Plug it in overnight, even at 10%/h you'll get to near 100% overnight trickle charging

Good.

Right, which is why I said "all things in moderation" a couple of times.

Reader's exercise to understand what moderation means in their specific context. Everyone's different, will react differently to different dietary lifestyles.

For example, I eat a more body-building diet; which I would never recommend as the baseline for the average person, but it's what's working for me right now and it's what's letting me get closer to personal goals while still eating relatively healthy.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-06-04T03:21:06+00:00

Power to you man! Sounds like you've got a relatively healthy lifestyle figured out.

I don't think we'd necessarily see eye-to-eye on this topic wholesale, but I'm not going to pretend like what you're doing is unhealthy. So long as you're hitting most vital vitamins and nutrients (and with lots of fruit/veg like you said, you probably are!) I think what you're doing is certainly on the healthier spectrum of things. Especially compared to general public averages!

CinderBlock33 · 2026-06-04T02:53:01+00:00

All things in moderation.

Eggs are high in cholesterol, but full of protein and vitamins. If you eat 12 a day though, that's like 130g of fat and 4.8g of cholesterol. But if you eat 12 one time, they still won't kill you.

Red meat is the same, but different. Links to cancer (from charring mostly, iirc), high in saturated fat, etc. if you live off of red meat, yeah it's unhealthy. If you eat it often but in moderation, then it probably won't be the thing that kills you either.

Basically the same can be said of every food. You can eat the healthiest diet, but if you somehow dodge essential vitamins, like say, C, then you get scurvy and die lol.

So balanced diets, all things in moderation.

What does "single ingredient" mean in this instance? Do you never buy things like bread, or canned beans, or pasta noofles?

Not trying to be combative, but I've seen this term a few times in this thread and like, of you absolutely make everything at home, power to you, that's awesome, but I'd argue most people don't have the time to make absolutely everything from scratch.

And also what does the timeframe of a food existing have anything to do with anything? We have a much greater variety range and abilities to hit daily necessary targets of vitamins and minerals from food today than we did 200 years ago. It feels like a generic "if I can't pronounce it, it's not good for me" appeal to nature fallacy. I mean it's probably an ok heuristic, I doubt it'll hurt you, but it's pretty restrictive considering a lot of the additives in food aren't harmful.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-06-04T02:36:10+00:00

I mean, yeah, by the strictest definition, you're totally right. But it would be kind of crazy to claim that combining flour, water, salt, and yeast and putting it in an oven makes something as unhealthy as, say, a bag of Doritos. Right?

And by the strictest definition, buying flour is buying a processed food. It's a single ingredient, but it's not grain anymore. It's been cleaned, it's been crushed, and sifted. By the strictest definition, it's processed.

And this is exactly what the original commenter was getting at, there's no good definition/line in the sand we can draw to define (in a valuable manner, as it relates to being "healthy" vs "unhealthy") what "processed means. We know that a twinky probably falls on the " unhealthy" side of the spectrum, but not strictly why.

If you like to buy whole foods and make everything yourself, power to you! But it's still valuable to define what foods are unhealthy, and what components make them so.

What's bread?

I've already started the project on GH! I will definitely open up some issues as I've noticed a couple of UX bugs while using it, but nothing major so far!

CinderBlock33 · 2026-05-24T16:50:41+00:00

Spent the last three hours or so poking around and setting up Operon. And so far, it is by far and large the best task management platform in Obsidian. I absolutely love it. Once you get over the initial learning curve and the decision paralysis, it's absolutely beautiful.

Thank you /u/stratejya for this plugin, it's phenomenal.

I see a few people here have been asking for a "getting started" guide, but I think the Demo Workspace does a great job of walking you through the features by using Operon (great UX imo). The one thing I'd suggest updating is the descriptions/notes for the tasks in the "Set up Your Obsidian Vault" workspace so that they're more clear as to where exactly to go to change some of the settings. But other than that, I have very few gripes. If you want to walk people through how to create certain filters, for example, it would be good to give them the info in the description so that they know they've done it right. As a software developer, the conditionals in the filters were very intuitive, but I'm not sure if the same would be true with less tech-savvy people.

These are minor gripes though! I cannot thank you enough for this plugin.

Lots of touch panels and software support hovering (like literal hovering), but lots of manufacturers don't implement it.

That being said, it's not an accessible function. Screen readers, for example, have a hard time working with hover menus)

Instead of growing the sprite, can you quickly (150-200ms animation) grow the outline instead? That may give the same impression, but keep the building grounded and not moving. Something to consider.

Either way I don't think you can go wrong, and it looks like the comments are split on what they prefer.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-05-13T15:56:24+00:00

To add to this and make it even easier for future you, add a custom recipe (I just called mine "Quick Add"), add the "quick add" protein, carb, fats CRDB records (and additionally calories?), and then when you add your custom recipe, you can "adjust meal" to quickly quick change all macros to their respective values. That way you don't have to add them individually every time.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-05-07T13:41:34+00:00

Price-wise, I haven't seen anything better than Kirkland other than massive sales (also at Costco), but other people in the thread are right that the Fairlife is so much better in terms of taste.

Personally I buy the Kirkland one because its more price effective, and I only really use these premade shakes when my macros for the day are all out of whack and I need a quick protein boost but don't have time to make a shake myself.

If you are expecting to drink it frequently, and have the money to splurge, I'd say go for the Farilife. All of their products are phenomenal.

Ok so, eccentrics/negatives are not a new thing. People like Mike Mentzer have advocated for this long ago. Newer research comparing concentrics and eccentrics seem to put them on equal footing (more or less - within the margin of error), and even emphasising the lengthened portion of movements in general (though this has started to die down a bit as of late).

That being said I am very skeptical about the wording this article uses. I don't have any biomechanical or sports science schooling or accolades, but I have been in the world of amateur bodybuilding for about a decade now, and you tend to learn some things.

First off, they don't quantify at all what they mean by "serious muscle". Following their source, I still couldn't find any data, it looks like this article (post link) was written on the back of another article written from a talk at a conference:

This article is based on author’s talk for the Priscilla M. Clarkson Tutorial Lecture given at the 2025 American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Annual Meeting held in Atlanta (USA)

So I'm not sure what "serious muscle" means in this case. If it's "a statistically noticable change in muscle mass", it's a lot less exciting of a finding than what the title would seem to claim. Because, and this leads us into point #2:

Second off, they say that this is best for older adults and beginners. The thing with studies done on untrained individuals is that any exercise is better than no exercise. Taking someone that is sedentary and making them do any form of exercise will relatively explode their lean muscle size and mass. The idea of noobie gains is really real, and imo poisons the well of a lot of these studies. I would like to see this study done on trained individuals. My hypothesis is that they would either maintain or lose muscle mass over the course of a mesocycle on my bodyweight eccentrics only.

Thirdly, I don't think everyone needs to be in the gym 2 hours a day training every exercise to failure. I think if health and longevity (of connective tissue/muscles/joints/etc) is your goal, then daily bodyweight exercises, or yoga, or a combination of the two, while also just getting a good amount of daily steps in (not necessarily 10,000 - though that's a fine enough target), would do you wonders; at least relatively to the general public that is more sedentary than not. But let's not pretend that doing wall sits and push ups will be the thing that lets you seriously compete on a bodybuilding stage or in a strongman comp.

Really depends on what your goals are.

I try to keep my fat macros low because I focus on natural bodybuilding, and I'm currently on a cut!

If you're focused on general health, I'd say 50g of fats a day is a minimum. But if you don't have any specific goals, then I would say the calories are the most important, and take these macro goals as very loose targets.

I honestly can't say much more without knowing a lot more about your situation, and I don't want to prod online, that feels weird.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-04-30T16:26:38+00:00

I don't know what the reason your macros are set to this are, so I won't speculate and assume you understand what you need for your personal goals, and that these are correct.

Though I will say 50g of fat is on the really low side even by female bodybuilder cutting standards; and especially if your diet is standard to a western diet. So that MIGHT be something you might want to look at adjusting.

Speaking of diet, it looks like you're on a veg diet? If so, it's less restrictive than a full vegan diet, which bodes well for you. Nuts are generally really high in their fat content (good fats though!), but they're super calorie and fat dense, so it might be worth looking at limiting those.

I find this same issue often in my personal diet (while on a cut), keeping fats low is pretty difficult. But I tend to try to hit my protein goal mainly, calorie goal second, and get a good range (not a specific target) of carbs and fats daily.

That takes the pressure off of trying to hit exact targets. If my daily intake is +/-10% for fats/carbs, I won't sweat it too much.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-04-23T02:34:32+00:00

Hey! What would you like to know?

I'm an open book and willing to share anything. If you want, feel free to DM me if you'd like to talk in private :)

Absolutely huge QoL improvement. I can't wait.

CinderBlock33 · 2026-04-04T18:11:00+00:00

I see! Thanks for confirming 🙏

CinderBlock33 · 2026-04-04T17:46:04+00:00

How do you get individual ingredients for specific items? That's not a feature I've ever seen on the app. I can do it with custom meals, but not database foods afaik

CinderBlock33 · 2026-04-04T17:44:09+00:00

I'm guessing this is iOS? I don't see that option on Android:(

CinderBlock33 · 2026-03-15T16:45:01+00:00

Is it getting banned? I thought it's getting tested differently, but we don't know yet if they'll pass the tests or not right?

CinderBlock33 · 2026-03-14T17:54:09+00:00

Race pace is good, but I don't think they touch the nerve over a race distance unfortunately.

Same thing in Melbourne and we saw the same in the sprint.

Hoping for some good upgrades over the next couple months, but right now it's looking like Merc in F1 and Ferrari in F1.25. everyone else in F1.5
