I asked if book now should be a button or a link if it takes you to an ordering page, still not sure.
You're right the science doesn't lie. There is no science that shows a lifetime of meat doesn't get you far (there are some that show you excel though). There are questionable questionnaire studies that show association with processed food (and for some reason they put meat in this, further confounding it) has a very small increase correlation with risk of cancer.
Meanwhile all those athletes "thriving" on plans actually saw their performance drop.
It is an action, but it navigates you to the booking page. That page should have a url and should be able to be shared. But wanting to "book now" is an action and most sites have them as a button.
Meat is inefficient for calories, but very efficient for nutrients. Food is more than cheap calories.
Granted could probably do this with any host/cloud infrastructure. But I'm happy with it.
It is blindingly fast and easy to setup.
So is it a few bad apples or is it the system in general?
Native is not just plain better.
- cardioid
- stereo
- omni
- biFFQ are useless. I barely remember what I ate 2 days ago.
Wifi power used will vary with a few factors, how far you away from the station, how many other wifi signals, etc.
In addition a big bright screen uses a lot more power than wifi. But that would be used either way so not part of the comparison.
The stone age man must have been so obese and unhealthy without all this modern counting tools.
Or perhaps we need to count calories and macros because we are eating processed junk. Eating real food and your body responds correctly.
I find it sad that society has come to this level.
> I'm not clever enough to understand why you didn't use sshd. It would take a fucking genius to figure that out.
That said, should there be some sort of central internet registry where we all registered our unique usernames which will be the same and reserved on every platform?
This reminds me of the days of EFNet where you would fight to have a username. If you stopped using it/disconnected, it was fair game.
I don't think someone would start posting malicious messages to make you look bad. They would just use it for themselves, with their own profile pic and would be obvious it's not you.
Some examples from athletes in the film:
-Griff Whalen: went vegan 2014 out of the league 2016
-Bryant Jennings: went vegan end of 2013 (17-0 before vegan, 5-2 after vegan)
-Mischa Janiec: went vegan fall of 2015 - no wins 2 years after
-Kendrick Farris: went vegan 2014 -performed poorly in the 2016 Olympics
-Patrik Baboumian went vegan 2011 - 5'-7" and never ever part of the World Strong Men competition.
-Morgan Mitchell went vegan 2014... in 2017 finished 26th place world championships
-James Brett Wilks went vegan 2011, retired from MMA in 2012
- Lewis Hamiliton suffered depressive breakdown on twitter
Typically within 2 years after going vegan, performance goes down. So veganism based on many of the athletes in the film is a sub-optimal diet for athletic performance.
As to your comment about the Amazon, we aren't eating Amazon beef. You're right it's being cleared, to make way for soy and other processed food. When you buy a steak from the butcher it's not coming from the Amazon, it comes from your local butcher, from a grass fed field, using less carbon then your bananas from Panama.
Tim Rees (amongst other) have written several writeups about the "evidence" in the movie. https://medium.com/@timrees/watched-the-game-changers-now-yo...
Greenhouse gas emissions of meat is also very questionable. Here is a PhD GHG expert, who has looked a bit closer: https://www.sciencealert.com/sorry-but-giving-up-on-meat-is-...
As always it's not as so simple. I believe the place to start is with science-based facts.
Sounds like you watched Game Changers on Netflix and now that's your knowledge. None of that was scientific at all and full of inaccuracies.
All the athletes mentioned saw their performance go down after adopting a plant based diet.
There are virtual no athletes at the top of their sport who got there on a plant based diet (plenty who started on animal and then moved to plant, but you will see their performance drop).
Animals are needed to fight climate change. Without them the soils would have no nutrients. It's a symbiotic relationship. They eat plant matter we can't. Grown on areas that we couldn't grow stuff. So they are vital to supplement our food. Going plant based would be a huge ecological disaster.
Yet the reverse is true.
Sidenote: I wouldn't put much stock in Harvard school of "nutrition". They have massive conflicts of interest with companies like Monsanto and also numerous problems with their methodology like oversimplification of the issues. https://www.forbes.com/sites/trevorbutterworth/2013/05/27/to...
