  • How America Got Obsessed With Protein https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/podcasts/the-daily/protein-bars-america.html

    The macronutrient is the latest fad in dietary culture.

    Seemingly overnight, Americans have become obsessed with pumping as much protein as possible into every drink, snack and meal.

    Elizabeth Dunn, a writer and contributor to The Times, explains the origins of this latest nutrition craze.

  • Now imagine how you might prompt an LLM like ChatGPT to give you a picture of your tree. When Stanford computer science PhD candidate Nava Haghighi, the lead author of the new study, asked ChatGPT to make her a picture of a tree, ChatGPT returned a solitary trunk with sprawling branches – not the image of a tree with roots she envisioned.

    she needs to get out and draw/paint some trees.

  • Over the past few years, we’ve seen abusive copyright infringement complaints, illegitimate takedown demands, and data access requests from a mix of governments, policing authorities, law firms and organizations in Russia, India, Germany, Singapore, the UK, and the US.

  • I've learned about gadgetbridge from a lemmy post and because i care about privacy, i'm using it now.

    somebody may read that comment and choose their next device accordingly. If you're complaining about Google, you have options

  • must be easy to be the center of the universe from where you think only your norms are "correct"

    bye. blocked you after taking a look at your comment history

  • i use AnySoftKeyboard because it has good multilingual support and i can tweak it exactly to my preferences.

    i have heliboard on other machines where i'm not the only user (or i'm not the user). It's more of a "default keyboard".

    They are both good.

  • you can easily brick your phone with adb. Just a heads up

  • that's not "hiding"

  • why don't you use a foss keyboard?

  • are you from Myanmar? Where does this hate come from?

  • Honestly on the bus or train it's kinda nice to just be in a bubble. Obviously you still need to be aware to some degree but I remember my college bus trips being a nice isolated time most days.

    i too remember my college bus days and, like you said, it was a relief to cut off the city and/or people around me. (I think that need was why i was attracted to noise back then (noise as a "music" genre. Impeccable filter.))

    But it was before smartphones and i was watchful. Now with the screen + earphones, what i experience is a complete disregard for others. It's not about awareness only, but consideration. Filtering out doesn't give you the right to act like filtered out doesn't exist and if they do, they should accommodate their actions according to your unawareness. (What a luxury to live in a period when your species has eliminated all their predators.)

  • i'm on it

  • you can speak to a reader, you can call for their attention.

    with bluetooth earphones and smartphones, it's like you're in two different realities. Because other people stop existing in that bubble, because they become part of the background, bubbled people stop caring about them.

  • i don't want to read that shit again. it isn't worth the time i've spent writing this message.

    thanks for the precision. one analogy then

  • rosemary indeed + white wine, onion, pepper and nuts.
