> The US isn't going to passively give up its hold on the world order. You don't think this would trigger a world war?
They are literally right in the middle of imploding their soft power; so maybe you are right about passively giving it up when they're actively doing so instead?
What are we doing here bud? Do you think these situations are remotely comparable? The UK legislated against the automated creation of CSAM, and sexual imagery of non-consenting women. You think banning UK officials from entering the USA for that is comparable to stopping a blatant racist (author of "The Great Replacement", rofl) entering the UK? Notably, not a French official btw.
Maybe you have problems with the UK exercising the right to control borders? :)
Powerlifting does not take as many calories as you'd think. In fact, lifting in general is surprisingly easy on the calorie requirement, so most powerlifters and bodybuilders incorporate cardio as part of their routine. You will burn a lot more calories by walking 10,000 steps a day for 1 month than you would doing an intense lifting session each day.
The reason you're probably thinking as to why lifters eat a huge amount is precisely because they're already large and muscular. Just 5% less bodyfat at the same weight results in roughly 200 more calories at maintenance for someone that is around 93kg.
A vigorous weightlifting workout for an hour will burn about 400kcal[1], which is roughly equivalent to walking 10k steps depending on your body weight. Another way to think of this is 100 minutes of brisk walking will round out to about 400kcal.
You don't really burn more calories walking, it's just easy to do and fit in around other things.
Weird hill to die on - 400 is probably the top end for a super heavy day at a higher bodyweight - maybe deadlift primary and squat secondary day? Walking for 10,000 steps will every day will certainly burn more calories.
Regardless, people who lift aren’t eating more just because they burn a couple of hundred calories 2-5 times a week.
You’re wrong about that, look up videos of strongmen and bodybuilder meals/eating routines. The 2 hour workouts at the top of these fields are very calorie intensive.
Bodybuilders eat a lot in the offseason because they're on tons of drugs and trying to maximize the amount of lean mass they can put on, and they eat more in general because when you have 100lb+ more muscle than the average person you have a significantly higher base metabolic rate. You can go on a variety of PED related forums and find IFBB pro's posting food logs, etc., and see that these crazy eating routines are limited to certain parts of the year, and even then have been falling out of favor - the 'lean bulk' for pros is more popular than ever.
Very few IFBB pros are working out in 2 hour sessions, either. Coaches understand junk volume way better now and know that a lot of the work being done previously just wasn't providing much muscle growth stimulus after a certain point. Most are spending <8 hours in the gym each week in general.
The top of the bodybuilding field is not eating a ton of food because of their lifting routines burning a bunch of calories.
I have lifted for 30+ years and something very un-intuitive with powerlifting is the optimal weight class for a height is extremely high.
If you are 5'10" you are pound for pound stronger at 240 than at 198. 198 will be dominated by someone who is shorter otherwise.
You are also much stronger the more you weigh, period. Strongman are eating so much to keep their weight up, not because they are burning so many calories while working out.
Even the most intense prowler workout that will make an untrained person puke their guts out is easy to out eat.
It is easiest to see with a contest bodybuilding diet. Even a 250lb bodybuilder who is doing a ton of working out is basically eating nothing. The body is incredibly efficient at holding on to weight. If it wasn't, humans would have starved to death a long time ago.
Last I tried Clerk, it was completely broken if you had no internet access which makes local dev a massive pain if you are travelling for example. Is this fixed?
That Wikipedia page says viewings are basically the same as a wake. Are viewings not common in the U.S? They're common in Utah.
When my dad died, before the viewing there was the period right after death where my siblings and I sat in the room with his body and talked until the mortuary picked him up.
My suspicion is that the proliferation of cremation has significantly reduced the incidence of wakes. That, and US American society has so much functional separation that most of us probably interact very little with the elderly, thus also not ending up at many funerals.
We have wakes and visitations in Canada too, but they are held at funeral homes for brief periods - not in the home of the deceased or a loved one. I think this might be the same as the Jewish ritual of “sitting shiva”?? But I am not sure.
UK has bigger problems than the ingredient breakdown in foods, the drinking and food culture is entirely based around excess. Go out on the weekend, drink 12 pints, have a kebab while drunkenly stumbling home, wake up and order in takeout because you're too hungover to cook, skip the gym, have a large Sunday roast - eat a half packet of biscuits with your tea.
The government need to start teaching about macronutrient breakdowns and calorie intake during early years, mandate that takeaways label their food with the macro-nutritional information, and let people be educated about the amount of food and drink they are consuming.
I don't believe that was what OP was suggesting; the addition of nutritional information for fast food outlets would be very welcome, personally. It'd be very informative to see the caloric breakdown and macros of food consumed from such joints. We already have macro-nutritional information for beers, why not extend that to what is commonly ordered with beer, too?
Furthermore, education on caloric intake and macro-nutrients in general would be a very wise decision. From experience, schools in the UK tend to skip what many would consider the essentials (sex education, dieting) to focus on more academic ventures -- it's good that we're focusing on academia, but we also need to place a greater spotlight on ensuring we live healthy lives; this is something regulators and the Government in general are very well-positioned to enforce.
The only real lectures we had on dieting were wishy-washy "eat vegetables" talk, which is glaringly obvious to pretty much anyone. Teaching people how to incorporate them into a meal seems like the logical next step.
Regarding educational institutions, I would much rather such information be presented to children in place of Baccalaureate programs which schools receive kickbacks from the Government to do; I did one and found that the majority of students (including myself) found the entire venture pointless and excruciating.
N.B. A semi-related note: For someone on a restrictive diet such as myself (e.g. keto), having nutritional information for beer is a very welcome luxury. I'm able to have a drink with friends while knowing how it would affect my total intake of carbohydrates for the day.
> the addition of nutritional information for fast food outlets would be very welcome,
I really don't see it... We know a Big Mac is a shitty life choice, how is putting a number next to it going to help (we already do this i think)
When did you leave school out of interest? We did pretty comprehensive sex education, self care, hygiene, cooking, nutrition classes ect ect. Hell we even did managing money and understanding taxation.
I dont think the issue is education, the information is out there and has been for a long, long time. The issue is getting people to care.
> a Big Mac is a shitty life choice, how is putting a number next to it going to help (we already do this i think)
Yeah "we" do: McD boxes report nutritional information, possibly even the wrappers. I'm sure the numbers are a bit gamed, but they are painfully high even like that. Same for "pizza": Domino's, Pizza Hut, etc, they all report caloric intake on their online menus, even in surprisingly visible places.
People (me included, often) still don't care, because we already know that these are all "sins" - classifying them into minor sins and mortal sins does very little. We should ask ourselves why we sin, instead. But that's hard, and risks messing up the current order.
It's likely more about the social circle you surround yourself with. When everyone around you is consistently drinking and indulging in such dietary habits, it can give the illusion of normalcy and social acceptability, even if, from an objective standpoint, it's an unhealthy choice.
The bigger challenge is that the obvious solution, advocating "don't succumb to peer pressure", is essentially acknowledging a lack of a clear solution to the issue.
I think people do it because they enjoy it, not peer pressure. Making "unhealthy" choices can still be rational - we each get only one life after all, and choosing to have a shorter one with greater enjoyment seems as valid to me as the opposite choice.
You have a point, but I’d say it’s considerably more socially acceptable to share 12 pints with friends than to consume the same amount alone. Social norms and acceptability can indeed exert a significant influence on OVERindulgence.
> The government need to start teaching about macronutrient breakdowns and calorie intake during early years
Stop looking to the government to solve this problem. There are many many thousands of sources online that one can easily use to get nutrition information.
If you want an example of how NOT to do it, just look at the US Gov food pyramid! Most of that diet is made of carbs.
The Powder Mage trilogy by Brian McClellan includes gunpowder as one of the magic system elements, and integrates it in a way which the author of the OP might be interested in :)
Can't you just copy what the Dockerfile is doing bud? Plenty of home server enthusiasts love docker for the simplicity it brings to handling a bunch of software. Not trying to knock you, just wondering where the complexity is coming from for you.
Sure I can. But it's not always that simple. Let's look at the repository for the software discussed in this thread [1]
I see one dockerfile and 7 docker compose files (.yml)
The dockerfile does not apparently do anything useful. I'd be amazed if running that dockerfile by itself produced anything useful
Now, I don't know very much about docker compose, but I learned a bit of it in order to get this software running on my server. If I worked at it, I could almost certainly get a working install of PhotoPrism without using Docker, but it would be annoying work, and I wouldn't have any certainty. I wouldn't know that it was correct, and any time something didn't work the way I expect, I would worry that I screwed something up during the installation
Not to mention the added operational complexity involved in managing a dockerized application compared to managing e.g. an equivalent webapp deployed without containerization (systemd service file, configuration file, etc)
Building From Source
You can build and install PhotoPrism from the publicly available source code:*
git clone https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism.git
cd photoprism
make all install DESTDIR=/opt/photoprism
Missing build dependencies must be installed manually as shown in our human-readable and versioned Dockerfile.
I haven't been able to find any dockerfile that lists dependencies. My guess is that the documentation is referring to some prior architecture or something similar
And the word "Dockerfile" is a link to a nonexistent page... they definitely skipped their grep + sed update homework when moving things around.
Noticing the broken link points to photoprism/docker/develop/Dockerfile, I supposed they had moved it and indeed, just by going one parent up, the directoy photoprism/docker/develop/ contains subdirectories for lots of base systems, each one containing a Dockerfile that lists dependencies needed for each of them.
They are literally right in the middle of imploding their soft power; so maybe you are right about passively giving it up when they're actively doing so instead?
