true, shame we have to deal with things from MMM Bilets to this.

I think it is less a reduction in demand and more a combination of wanting to get out of Russia gas + lack of supply elsewhere.

But nobody cares about light brown deaths!

So... Germany has 35% less natural gas.... I wonder what their change in demand is, because a 35% reduction in supply is fairly drastic.

The thickness in european traditional pea soups often comes from adding pork feet, pork tail or some other off-cut with a lot of gelatin. At least in Germany, probably also in the Netherlands.

Scams never die, they evolve

> Foods that contain all nine essential amino acids tend to be animal protein.

It's good that you can eat more than one one food per day then. Legitimately, what's the point of mentioning this when the simple combination of legume/vegetable and grain/nut/seed has all nine essential amino acids.

> You can get them all from a vegan diet, but you’ll be eating considerably more and thus spending more.

Yep, legume+grain is certainly going to cost more than meat.

You are correct about the existence of complete plant proteins. There are studies that show an advantage in lean muscle mass gains for groups that consume animal based proteins https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7926405/#!po=29.1667

I definitely believe it is possible to gain significant lean mass on a plant based diet, it just requires more effort than an omnivorous diet in my opinion. I would be open to seeing studies that challenge the one I have sourced but I am paywalled from the one you have linked.

My original comment was just a warning to combine your plant protein sources wisely to achieve the best results. I did not mean for that to get lost in translation.

More evidence to support that veganism doesn’t require privilege.

I don't have a dataset filtered on meat only products. However, meat is part of the ranking for the scenario with at least 20% protein and at most 20% carbs:

"Death by Sex" is what we all strife for!

Do you have the same dataset but for meat?

See other comment on this post dealing with the protein quality issue of plant-based proteins.

The issue that I have with Meta and the issue that I have with metaverse critics (basically the entirety of Reddit) is this:

The Metaverse is being considered as a Zuckerberg initiative.

On one hand, Zuckerberg and his pals are patting themselves on the back for trying to own the terminology and the concept. On the other hand, the common human on social media (this thread for instance) is shitting on the metaverse concept because they are associating it with what Zuckerberg means, without wanting to understand what it actually is. Whatever the fuck you are seeing with Horizon Worlds is NOT the Metaverse.

Like it or not, the Metaverse is the evolution of the modern Internet. It’s a seamlessly interconnected virtual world/cyberspace, a 3D visualization of what we experience on the web. And the core tenet of the Metaverse is decentralization on a scale that is deeper than the advanced Web 2.0 phase that we are in.

Corporations like Meta, Microsoft, Google, etc, are selling a flawed idea of what the metaverse is, and people are lapping it up. They shouldn’t be portraying it like they’re building their own “metaverses” which is incorrect. The Metaverse is singular, just like the Internet. What people need to gather from this is that these corporations are simply making building blocks for the actual Metaverse. In the end, everything should connect and everything should communicate, and there are no governing bodies involved.

No one owns the Internet as a whole. No one should own the Metaverse too.

And the Metaverse is not simply relegated to VR. The idea is that in the future, a decade or two from now, you should be able to access the global Metaverse from a variety of devices, like smartphones, smartwatches, computers, tablets, VR/AR headsets and glasses, and even BCI (brain-computer interface) chips, and have the same experience all across (with limitations based on what device you are using to access it).

When corporations like Meta are screwing around with this concept and those Web3 scam artists abusing the concept of NFTs, there are many genuine startups actually taking this seriously and contributing towards building this future. It’s a new industry wherein it’s beneficial to get into now than later.

I'm just sayin'.

It's a pyramid scheme.

Now, I'm not saying it's a pyramid scheme necessarily, buuuut....

Great stuff! But vegan proteins are low quality as in they don't have high concentration of the important Amino acids that our body uses for muscle growth.

Anyone stupid enough to buy this deserves to have their money stolen.

Do you happen to have a solid but accessible source on this? There's just sooooo much content on nutrition out there with all degrees of reliability and no easy way to filter the good from the absolutely made up

I don’t think working out twice a week for 12 weeks is enough to note any real difference in your one rep max leg press. I’d be interested to see a longer form study with a workout regime designed for muscle growth.
