My main point is that this has none of the macros of a hotdog so it hits differently than a hotdog. I am on tofu and chickpeas these days and I'm not really disputing the possibility of getting protein on a vegan diet, tofu and seitan are very under-rated by bro fitness chicken-and-rice guys. Those foods are pretty high in carbs compared to lean meat or non-fatty fish, I now have to eat a lot less stuff like bread and rice that's only carbs now. Compared to fatty meat like a hotdog, those replace the fat with complex plant carb which is probably better for you, but is a struggle to adjust to.

When I ate hotdogs I could eat like 3 and be good for a while if that was my lunch. I don't see myself eating 3 carrot-dogs and being good for a while.

A lot of people have surprisingly bad diets, I know too many people who don't really eat vegetables. When a typical meat-eater thinks about going vegan, they imagine eating a giant carrot replacing their giant slab of meat, and this is why people come in and say these things. I understand that point of view on this as someone who struggles with switching, and a recipe that tries to emulate the flavour profile and form of a hotdog but not the having the actual stuff that makes you feel like you ate a hotdog 10 minutes ago is a confusing thing for a non-vegan.

There's no real point to the original commenter, and there's no real point to my comment. Other than me understanding where the other person comes from.

Well nutritionally instead of being half fat, half protein, and a ton of preservatives that are probably bad for you, it's all complex-ish carbs and fibre.

Stuff like this 'hot dog' is where the "how do you even protein as a vegan bro" stuff comes about. Idk how you 'fix' that, maybe keto hotdog buns, and turning it into a bean chilli "dog"?

It sucks that you can't just go all in on vegan direct replacements because the nutrition is so different and you won't be full changing the macros of your meals overnight. If you had a terrible diet eating nothing but hotdogs and changed to this you'd feel hungry.

The whole building meals around a meat protein, and then having a bunch of other stuff diet is hard to break, and this sort of recipe is easy to give the impression that vegans are always hungry because it's so foreign.

I notice that I have to add a lot more fat to my meals to balance them because vegan protein comes with a lot more carbs, unlike animal protein which comes with fat by default.

The drum part is so fun in this

Buy a bunch in bulk from China, go to the meetup spot, and then sell them out the back of your car.

Already missed the boat on peak money making, but I think there are still enough stupid in lifted trucks that you can make money.

Does China hate American stuff as much as Americans hate Chinese stuff?

Or is their country still generally on the upswing while the US is in decline so they don't care that much?

Always thought about selling trumpian t-shirts at rallies at big markup.

Brace Belden's t-shirt is probably the best one:

❎ Democrat

❎ Republican

✅ Gay Guy

Except where I am they'd be "fuck Trudeau" t-shirts, stickers, etc.

The Titan Submersible was at least a classical feel-good tale of hubris.

This thing is just annoying, who cares.

Most progressive statement by a rapper in 2012, and maybe even now

Is learning to code even valid anymore after generative AI?

I'd expect there to be a lot less space for jr programmers because of this.

Didn't people fight black bears as a circus sideshow?

Brown bear definitely not, but maybe black bear idk.

Italians eat meatballs with roast potatoes, which makes more sense if you think of it like Italian meatloaf

It doesn't matter what's legal, it matters what you actually want to challenge in court or not.

Nintendo has shut down a romhack before (Project M - smash bros Wii mod). Even though you needed to have access to a legit copy to play it the way they tell you to on their website.

They're even shutting down emulators that don't include proprietary bios stuff that you're "supposed" to rip off your own console. They shut down Nintendo Switch emulators.

I'm looking for something that I can scan hand-written notes into and have OCR'd. Maybe one that I can even train on my handwriting. Ideally I end up with a searchable PDF of my notes.

People use one-note for this, but I'm not really comfortable with letting microsoft see my handwriting.

 

I was supposed to do boring life stuff today but I got heavily sidetracked by trying to model a physics problem.

This sort of distraction happens a lot to me, when I'm meant to be doing one chore but drop it and do a different one when I see it needs to be done. Like needing to clean the stove, then noticing the cupboards aren't clean, and then staying up late cleaning my kitchen from top to bottom. The sort of thing where it's hard to find motivation but once I do then I'm unstoppable.

I have a friend on adderall, and how he describes that drug it wouldn't work to help this because it helps you focus, but not necessarily on the right thing. He once took it to finish an assignment and then got fixated on a videogame instead and played it until 5am.

 

When I first read it I thought it was a scam. Blackrock is offering one of these, it's legit. Why the hell are the SEC allowing it now in the year of our lord 2024? Is the growth machine really that stagnant that they need this?

brrrrrrrrrrrr

 

I gained around 15 pounds since the last time i was actually active regularly, so i decided to do a 5k training program I found. I used to play recreational team sports before Covid, have been sedentary for a while, so I decided to download an app and do their 5k training plan.

The problem is that the plan is for people who can already run, but want to tune themselves for doing a 5k quickly. My body is not used to running, and now i probably need to take a week or more break. Parts of my knee/leg which have never been sore before in my life are now sore.

My advice for myself if I could go back in time 3 weeks: Just because you were active before at some point in your life, doesn't mean your body can do the same stuff still. DON'T INCREASE YOUR MILEAGE BY MORE THAN 10% A WEEK, AND WARM UP AND STRETCH PROPERLY.
