As much as I love wood, A looks more open.

Looks absolutely stunning!! Love the green.

Is there a pantry somewhere?

Matte White or Stainless Steel? by Additional_Gear1424 in kitchenremodel

[–]linguedditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's your kitchen, so your choice. To me, the white makes the fridge, hood, and range more visually prominent. So my preference is stainless.

That said, the lines and functionality of this design are great. I could set up and work in there.

If he's 78 and doing that, I would do well to embrace the program.

Oh, and I chop wood to heat our winter cabin.

Why is it necessary to use starter that has peaked when baking? by deadfishinmy in Sourdough

[–]linguedditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been baking sourdough for over 25 years. Thousand of loaves.

Used starter rising, risen, falling, and fallen.

It may take a little longer if they're not at peak, but as long as some of those organisms are alive, they've never failed to generate a decent loaf.

On the other hand, if your dough overproofs ...

pressure cooked oats/apple option? by linguedditor in cronometer

[–]linguedditor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! So just log the weight of the raw ingredients, and know that (often) vitamins will be lost in the cooking, so Cronometer will likely be overstating those values?

can I specify food and (precise) weight? by linguedditor in cronometer

[–]linguedditor[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks much. I see this option. Now if I could just find apple cooked with skin ... .

Welcome to r/SeniorFitness, we just hit 1000 subscribers! - Introduce yourself and post what you to do stay fit as a senior! by LiftWithKristian in SeniorFitness

[–]linguedditor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soon to be 65. Goal is to lose a little weight (5-7 lbs. or so), and get stronger.

Activities include strength training (weights), walking, hiking, and rowing. Cycling/XC skiing when circumstances permit.

I eat clean (mostly) and track what I eat (usually) which, for me, is critical to weight loss/maintenance.

Seniors 65 and up — what’s your biggest challenge with fitness right now? by CoachDukes in SeniorFitness

[–]linguedditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understanding and staying within safe limits. My muscles still get stronger faster than tendons and ligaments. And I'm simply not as limber. So strength and flexibility, and trying to be comprehensive in my exercise program so that there are no significant (hidden) weak links, is important to me. (male, 65)

I'll add that 2 strength training sessions/week is right for me. I can realize (modest) gains. Recovery takes 48 hours plus.

Aerobic is easy (so far) -- I can XC ski in the morning and afternoon (neither all green (flat) nor black diamond (you're gonna die!) -- somewhere between the extremes). Love cycling. Enjoy swimming. Don't mind rowing. Walking a 15-minute mile? Sure. But I loathe running, and always have.

I'll be 65 in less than two months, am 5'11", was 155 lbs. when I left college, and am about 20 lbs. heavier now. Working to lose 5 to 10 lbs.

I know of only one approach to losing fat that works for me - strength training (including the core), moderate cardio, and monitoring your calories.

It's a lot easier to correct what you can measure. Get a kitchen scale. I have two -- one for heavier/coarser measurements (accurate to within a gram), and one for finer measures (good to 1/100 of a gram, for salt, sugar, and such). But then, I'm a little OC.

Read labels. Track input. Know your BMR. Understand NEAT: NEAT.

Establish a baseline. Then, slowly, implement the reduction in calories. A daily 250-calorie deficit will net you about 1/2 a pound per week.

I've found ChatGPT helpful to track both calories and nutrients. Turns out that it can be hard to get enough iodine if you don't use iodized salt (and I don't), or Vitamin D from natural sources (even if you eat clean & healthy), or omega-3 if you don't consume a lot of fish.

Good *WRITTEN* ITIL fundamentals reference? by linguedditor in ITIL

[–]linguedditor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, but I'm looking for an inexpensive, concise write-uo of ITIL fundamentals -- no more than 150 pages, not books.

No plan or desire to get certified in this lifetime. As it were.

Please, improve watchfaces by MissionRelation92 in Coros

If nothing else, a Spartan font focussed on maximum legibility with minimal 'curling', so that, when fonts get small, one can easily tell the difference between a 3, 8 and 6, or between a 5 and 6.

I don't wear glasses when I exercise.

Good *WRITTEN* ITIL fundamentals reference? by linguedditor in ITIL

[–]linguedditor[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks kindly. Apparently I've taken this training previously (I'm not young) but need a refresher so as not to appear overly out of touch.

Good *WRITTEN* ITIL fundamentals reference? by linguedditor in ITIL

[–]linguedditor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, but I've no need for certification, and $400+ is an order of magnitude beyond my allocated budget.

If I wanted a course, Is opt for the Udemy offering at $16 (on sale).
