Still no BTC payment options. Decent doughnuts though...
Olympic weightlifting. Got a lifetime PB front squat this week!
Congratulations!
That seems to be the problem I have. Can't seem to get it working using an IP address either...
I've been trying to do this with an LG TV but no success so far...

I'd recommend reading the actual paper not the article
The 1 day per week intermittent fasting group appears the most interesting to me as overall caloric intake was maintained but body weight slightly reduced (possible improvement in body composition?) and some measured health benefits.
To me the loss of lean mass (and probable hunger) experienced by the 40% and 20% caloric restriction groups (if applicable to humans) would considerably reduce quality of life while increasing the risk of hospitalisation and early death from falling injuries in later life.
Each to their own I suppose. My preference would be to live an averagely long life with a high capacity over a long life with compromised capacity.

Thanks, will do.
"Some mice were placed on calorie-limited diets, another group followed intermittent fasting regimens, and others were allowed to eat freely."
Sounds like only some of the mice were fasted intermittently, others had calories restricted.
I'm certainly open to the benefits of intermittent fasting and have experimented with it myself.
Having practiced (natural) bodybuilding for years in the past I was never able to maintain muscle mass whilst restricting calories. This may just speak to my lack of talent as a bodybuilder. Pros are typically still using some sort of exogenous testosterone derivative while dieting for competition so I don't think that's a good example.
As a competitive weightlifter in multiple weight classes for over 15 years I feel I have a good understanding of how my body reacts to various dietary interventions and in my experience anything but brief caloric restriction leads to loss of both fat and muscle (not to mention strength).
BTW the Cambridge Dictionary's definition of frail seems to cover both our usages.

A lifelong caloric deficit makes retention let alone growth of muscle essentially impossible. Frailty is the inevitable result.
First time I've seen one of these round here!

Sounds like you're doubting yourself.
Don't!

Surely there would be an opportunity to do something other than burn the coins? But what...?
Are there any viable options for moving a wordpress.com blog to a self-hosted site?
Read this, best response I’ll zap 21k sats:

Heidegger apparently thought that mechanical writing (using a machine, in this case the typewriter) interferes with the "authentically handling hand", thereby concealing character, making " everyone look the same".
What would Heidegger think of our use of machines to not only write nostr notes but sign them with our unique private keys, thereby placing their authenticity beyond doubt?
Good luck. Any plans for alcohol moderation or not required?
