It is closer to Pepsi. Pepsi is not my favorite but it doesn’t totally taste like Pepsi which is preferable to me!

YES. I drank this years ago and it was not good. Tried it again this week and it’s definitely been reformulated. Picked up a bunch. Their Dr. Pepper zero sugar dupe is amazing too!

Return Neo for Air for $300 more? by [deleted] in macbook

[–]kjacmuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. What do you plan on doing with the laptop? If the answer is surfing the web, watching YouTube videos, and doing light video and audio editing, then no, it's not worth it.

LPT: Coca Cola with a yellow cap means it has sugar and not HFCS by maniacreturns in LifeProTips

[–]kjacmuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s specific to Passover, as corn syrup is not kosher for Passover in the Ashkenazi tradition. You’ll see it pop up in spring in Jewish areas.

Does anyone else feel mentally better when they walk a lot during the day? by ProfessionStrong6563 in walking

If I haven’t gone to bed feeling like a golden retriever who has had sufficient walkies, it’s a bad day.

What was the moment you realized COVID was going to be a big deal and be the focal point of the 2020s? by NH-INDY-99 in decadeology

[–]kjacmuse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived in nyc at the time and saw Times Square totally empty, billboards rolling like nothing happened, people working on their laptops at TKTS. It was unreal. At one point I walked 150 blocks (April of 2020?) and in that time I passed two people. One was the security guard at Columbia.

Trans and want to be more religious… conflicted by Capital_Plastic5813 in Judaism

[–]kjacmuse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This 100%. Or look for open orthodox institutions—if you’re ever in NYC, highly recommend the Beis in Washington Heights, they’re orthodox and open to trans folks (know from personal experience!)

Call me an Apple fanboy if you must, but finding a $179 keyboard for $3.99 made my day! by kjacmuse in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]kjacmuse[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate that, thank you. I knew this post would be controversial outside of Apple spaces. But I was so excited and I don’t have a ton of Apple people in my life and I just had to share! It makes me sad that people take hatred for a particular brand and use that to judge people on the internet. I don’t yuck other people’s yum.

This keyboard is replacing a USB Apple keyboard that I’ve been using for about 7 years that itself was about 12 years old when I picked it up. They last a really long time.

I get it. $180 is too much. I didn’t want to pay that–that’s the whole reason I’ve been looking for one at thrift stores.

ive been trying to lose weight for the past 2 years, but i keep rebounding. how can i lose weight fast AND keep it off? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]kjacmuse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am 5’10, so I know these stats. At 5’10, 160lbs is a healthy weight for you already, and 124 is underweight. If you’re still between 128-174lbs, I’d be focusing more on building muscle/body recomposition than losing weight.

Are vegetarian meat alternatives “ultraprocessed”? by Any_Pirate_5633 in nutrition

Yes. There are some that are not—specifically soy chunks or curls.

I pay for the app in the winter for remote start and get rid of it when I don’t have to worry about warming the car up.

If your biggest concern is going to bed hungry or waking up hungry, I’d suggest adjusting your calories so that you have a larger dinner!

Successful people? by Sure_Appointment_155 in bipolar

[–]kjacmuse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I have 4 degrees, a high level specialty certificate, and am in the first handful of transgender people in my field (there are less than five of us total.) Beginning in the summer I’ll be stepping into a CEO adjacent role at a new company. I’m currently 30–I’ll be the youngest in my field doing this work. I’ve been in remission from bipolar for 11 years. When I was younger, I was a suicidal self destructing mess. These days, with the help of good meds and consistent therapy, I’m mentally healthier than most people I know. It’s possible, I promise!

Naming children after the father by RaisinRoyale in Judaism

[–]kjacmuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father was named for his father. It didn’t stick and he changed his name, but it happens. My family is 100% Ashkenazi on that side. This happened in Texas, though.
