Everything I've seen and read says exercise won't actually change how many calories you burn in a day. It's still super healthy to do, but does not replace a calorie deficit.

Your anecdote seems to support that. You burned up all your blood sugar by biking 10 miles and then almost passed out. So now you're just going to laze around for hours burning fewer calories than you would have during that time had you not exercised.

I've dieted before and always embraced the "eat your exercise calories" idea. Exercise is good for your body, but any calories spent doing it should be eaten as extra food outside of your normal calorie goals.

Ah, I didn't realize that. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

Congrats?

Consider taking up scuba diving. It normally requires active ear pressure normalization (Valsalva maneuver), but it sounds like you're one of the rare people who will have a wonderful time never having to worry about that.

It would be nice if your FreeTube link actually linked to the video in question.

Never mind. This video is fucking trash. I thought it was going to be a romhack or something, but it's just some guy reviewing the game while thinking he's funny, and he's not.

Why not change countries? I think about doing so all of the time because fuck the USA. Goddamn shithole country. But I, too, have million reasons not to. -_-

No, a real Zelda game like Zelda II.

That'd be awesome! I'd pirate the shit out of a remake.

Nothing you said is true.

  1. Nonsense. False.
  2. No information. False.
  3. Improper English. False.

This is a very well known sentence that leads to things like Gödel's Incompleteness Theoreom.

If you don't enjoy the philosophy of logic, that's fine, but don't go saying a very famous sentence is improper English.

 

The image link in question:

Screenshot of web UI of this post:

 

Perhaps let players configure some number such that the game will never plot a path for your character longer than that without first getting your confirmation.

"The path you've chosen is longer than N steps, are you sure?"

And then I also feel this needs to be very easily toggleable. Like a persistent UI button. I'd have it on when exploring and off when backtracking, and those two activities are back and forth all game.

Relevant screenshot below. The entire level is explored, and this damn piece of grass sent my character haywire then I trapped at the X. This kind of thing has happened to me on much later levels and messed me up good.

In the Depths, I would set this number to something like 2 for safety. I can't count how many times a misstap has gotten me zapped, chased, and then pincer-attacked by some second enemy in the room behind me. But then I'd want to toggle it off to run back to an alchemy pot or whatever.

 

This was a comment I made on a "sink" post the mods deleted, and I think it's an issue that needs addressing, so I'm pasting it here. The comment I replied to said something like "Superscript and spoilers have always worked fine in Sync".


Ironically, that isn't valid Lemmy markdown. Sync should be supporting Lemmy markdown, not Reddit markdown. Here's what your comment looks like on the website:

This is^superscript^ and you can also do~subscript~.

Source:

This is^superscript^ and you can also do~subscript~.

Here's what it should look like:

Instead, you get this:

Personally I don't like Lemmy's syntax for spoilers, but Sync should still support it!

hidden or nsfw stuffa bunch of spoilers here

Source:

hidden or nsfw stuffa bunch of spoilers here

I'm surprised that actually even works in Sync. It didn't used to. However, Sync doesn't show my code block accurately, which is funny as fuck! No app should be editing my code block. Sync is replacing my text with reddit markdown in order for it to display properly. And even when I put that markdown in a code block, it still converts it to reddit style! It also strips out the warning text!

Here is what I actually typed:

And here's what Sync shows:

What a lazy ass way of doing it. It removes an important feature: the warning text, and won't even let me show Sync users how to do a proper spoiler!

Oh, WTF. Sync butchered my comment when editing it! I had to fix it back on desktop.

Sync is not fine. It's full of bugs that the dev is ignoring.

 

Here's an example. I'll escape the markdown so you see the raw text:

![](https://rimh2.domainstatic.com.au/M3S7ooR3ugIz1AMW8WhMJ1JBivc=/fit-in/1920x1080/filters:format(jpeg):quality(80):no_upscale()/2018585659_8_1_230614_022120-w1920-h1280)

The URL contains unescaped parentheses which are illegal in a markdown link because the link itself must be wrapped in parentheses.

This results in my comments showing no pictures and users only seeing this nonsensical text:

:quality(80):no_upscale()/2018585659_8_1_230614_022120-w1920-h1280

If I try to escape the parentheses, I get this:

Oh, hey, it's the picture!

Whatever admin or bot is editing people's comments when moving pictures to some other host needs to escape special characters in the URLs.

 

EDIT: It's something to do with my VPN and/or EasyTether, but it only happens in Firefox, so I didn't think that could be it. I commented about my findings below: https://lemmy.world/comment/7585497


I start a video and it either doesn't load at all of stalls within 5 seconds, never to recover.

I've tried everything:

  • Deleting every Mozilla folder in AppData to completely refresh Firefox. (after backing up my profile)
  • Flushing DNS cache
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. (Which made me remember I had a policies.json file in the program folder to permanently lockdown the settings I want. So that wasn't the problem either.)

Even when using no extensions like an ad blockers it still won't play videos. Besides, I'm a Premium subscriber. Once in a while a video will work, but it's so, so rare. And often it'll even stop after a minute.

Meanwhile, it'll work in the DuckDuckGo Browser all the time, which is Chromium based.

What do you think the deal is? It broke rather suddenly a few weeks ago. Do you think it's Mozilla's fault, or Google's?

 

I fucking love it! These guys rock!

I was just trying to go thank some people for recommending a mobile game, and I can't find my original comment where I asked for suggestions nor the inbox replies from the two people who recommended the game.

Does that mean that post was deleted? And all the comments and inbox replies go with it? That's kinda sad.

I suppose this isn't really a Lemmy.world issue, and more like a Lemmy issue in general, but I didn't know where else to ask.

 

It would be good to display whatever the real error is instead of this erroneous message.

I don't even use filters except for a very short list of user filters from before the block API was implemented in Sync. I do, however have a very large list of blocked communities on the server, but I don't see why the Lemmy API would generate an empty page of posts due to my server-side blocks. Is it not smart enough to generate a page of posts after excluding my blocked communities? I've written a lot of paged database queries with filters, and implementing blocks after performing the query would be pretty dumb.
