    Out of all of these only your last point is valid and even that is being changed as they get hit by ant-monopoly stuff, I don’t care if the apple watch only works with the iphone or that the ipods are best used with an iphone, i have used my fair share of bluetooth headphones on android and I have a generic smartwatch from Huawei and they fuck off, they have terrible UX.

    For most of the shit I do, I just want something that works, for the niche shit I have Linux/windows on my desktop PC.









  • I am guessing this is one of these things where people think it’s awesome and has many advantages, but like everything else in life, it’s best to be near the middle of the bell curve, personally I am 197cm tall and that’s very much on the extreme end, I think that’s that taller than 99.6% of humans, I have to look out for not hitting my head, I don’t fit comfortably in the majority of cars, flying on a plane is a PITA as I have to look for specific seats, hell even something as simple as sitting comfortably on public transit is an issue. Buying clothes is a chore as I have to look for things that are designed with longer sleeves and pants sized for tall people. Just a minority of shoe selection is available as they mostly have EUR size 45 as the biggest and I wear 46/47.

    And I will probably die sooner than if I was like 10 cm shorter as my heart has to work harder.






  • Tesla introduced the fad of using an app for charging which other idiots promptly copied making the charging infrastructure a fucking nightmare.

    Tesla introduced big screen few buttons which other car manufacturers copied, making a few model years of cars more dangerous than they have to be, thankfully manufacturers are rolling that shitty as trend back.

    Tesla continues to make cars with shit reliability, and dangerous UX with no buttons or turning shit to touch buttons that should be that, e.g. the turning indicators.

    In short fuck Tesla and Musk.



  • Dietary cholesterol has little to no effect on blood cholesterol.

    https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9143438/

    We confirm from the review of the literature on epidemiological data, meta-analysis, and clinical interventions where dietary cholesterol challenges were utilized that there is not a direct correlation between cholesterol intake and blood cholesterol. This lack of correlation is mainly due to the compensatory mechanisms exerted by the organism to manage excess dietary cholesterol, including decreases in cholesterol absorption and down-regulation of cholesterol synthesis. A great number of epidemiological studies and meta-analysis indicate that dietary cholesterol is not associated with CVD risk nor with elevated plasma cholesterol concentrations. Clinical interventions in the last 20 years demonstrate that challenges with dietary cholesterol do not increase the biomarkers associated with heart disease risk. Further, in the specific circumstances where eggs are the source of dietary cholesterol, an improvement in dyslipidemias is observed due to the formation of less atherogenic lipoproteins and changes in HDL associated with a more efficient reverse cholesterol transport. However, if the cholesterol sources are consumed with saturated and trans fats, as happens in the Western diet pattern, increases in plasma cholesterol may be observed. The most recent epidemiological data and clinical interventions for the most part continue to support the USDA 2015 dietary guidelines that removed the upper limit of dietary cholesterol
