I actually do mostly agree on both points.

While i do support transhumanism. i can see the negative side of any implants coming from Elon(or any current techbros), security, compatibility, long term support, minimal medical testing.
The hope is that eventually replacement body parts coming from medical field with rigours safety features and testing become widely available. That will likely take decades or even lifetimes and i might not even see becoming a half mechanical cyborg during my lifetime.

Cooking is most definitely useful skill, no argument about that and it does play into efficiency by being cheaper (per meal basis) and it is easier to cook up a balanced meal from raw ingredients instead of trying to find a good ready made meal from the store. In addition the health aspect as well, a somewhat balanced meal cooked out of raw ingredients is likely going to be better for the body than ready made meals, obviously cooking methods do matter and in moderation.

The art and celebration part is too subjective and flys over my head completely. It’s just food, do we celebrate plugging in a charger on our phones? is refueling the car an art form? No, neither is day to day eating, it’s just refueling the body.

Though obviously there are people who do consider food an art and that’s why this is a slightly controversial opinion.

Heavily depends on the subject. Of course trying my best to be reasonable person, then many opinions can change over time due to new information or perspectives. So if you specify a subject, i can give my perspective on it and feel free to counter it, as it’s rather useful in testing out and refining opinions/perspective.

In general, live and let live(with some exclusions), just try not to make the surrounding area worse than i found it. Sometimes it’s even possible to leave it slightly better than i found it. Similar applies to people, while i might be an asshole(ASD, social difficulties) with a fucked up sense of humor, i do try to be helpful and try not to be purposefully malicious(abuse/take advantage/hurt) towards other people.

Some of the more controversial ones: Supporting transhumanism, leaning towards cybernetic augmentation of the human body, but as trans people fall under the same umbrella they get my support as well.

Regarding food: food is just fuel. There’s minimal emotional component to it. Daily eating is just another chore to maintain this biological meatsuit. Efficiency to get in a somewhat a balanced meal is the primary concern.

I doubt it, but personally i did find it to be a really uncomfortable position for a watch and required odd twisting of the arm to see the face of the watch and i constantly hit it on every single surface.

I fixed it by wearing the watch on the inner side of my wrist. Much more comfortable and convenient to check the time.

Fair point, i can see how those can be used to gauge general opinion of people.

Neither mean anything, both are completely useless fictional numbers.

Not only sugar, alcohol itself has significant amounts of calories.

Same, but with beer. Lost nearly 15kg+ in a year without even trying.

Because TV is boring as hell most of the times and majority of it is ads which cant be blocked.

At least with phone i have to move my thumbs or put a little taught into how to express myself.

Standard TV is just a complete mind numbing existence. It’s pretty much equal to just being in a coma. Even sleeping is better, at least the body is recovering at that time. Standard TV is one of the worst ways to consume data garbage.

Of course there are good movies and documentaries, but those are a minority.

DR. Layne Norton, mostly for interpreting different studies better and pointing out the misinformation and what’s wrong with what some of the influencers say.

Ben Carpenter for the positive mental health side of dieting.

I’d add in Sean Nalewanyj and Fazlifts for the lifting/training side as well, because dieting and training go hand in hand, everyone should do it and it’s filled with as much misinformation as nutrition space.

There’s a fix for that.

Like the Smaug or any dragon from myths. Constantly hoarding new music regardless of how much there already is.

While there is the baseline collection(taste) which has remained the same since teenage years, though with less shame nowadays. The collection is constantly expanding. Maybe the only commonality is leaning towards fast paced, but there are exceptions of some odd ambient music or just chanting.

I cant pin down the taste exactly. I just keep clicking next/new recommendations until the feeling of avoidance(maybe) dissipates and brain decides it will activate flow state with this random song this time. Sometimes it happens with old songs, sometimes it happens with new songs, sometimes it happens with covers of old songs, sometimes it doesn’t happen at all and i listen to audiobooks instead.

And the recipe is simple as well. Just need a good throwing hand.

Only country? The whole world is getting covered in the shit that hit this fan.

Fill a bucket with broken up styrofoam and the rest with gasoline. Let it mix a while, few hours. Pour it into a galss bottle using a funnel, recommendbly something that breaks easily. Avoid champagne bottles.

Use any old cotton clothing items. Tear it into long rags. Soak it in the gasoline and tie a knot in the middle. Then squeeze the knot through the opening of the bottle which you already filled up with the mox before.

You can improve the mixture with motor oil, but i can’t recall the exact ratios for that.

It’s a new heartwarming trend. You should join in as well. All the cool kids are doing it already. Need a simple recipe for a basic cocktail?

Depending on the game. Some require always online connectivity

Still irrelevant. Talking without the premission of the owner is still stealing. While there are different circumstances under which stealing is more of less forgivable. It’s still stealing and you haven’t provided any good reason for it.

Noup, that’s called stealing. Intending to return it later part is irrelevant and a regular excuse used by thiefs.

If you need to borrow it, then ask from the owner.
