> Many people tell me I need to lift weights to lose weight.
No you dont. Exercise does help, and has many other benefits but is not the main driving factor for losing weight. Diet is by far the most important one. Calories intake vs expenditure is the only thing you need to worry about if your primary goal is weight loss.
Nothing achieved for you but for example my mother and some relatives don't have to live under forced occupation. Her city was under siege for a number of weeks during initial invasion and totally cut off from any basic human needs like water, electricity and food supplies were limited. Not to mention constant rocket attacks and some shelling. There are millions of people like my mother who are greatful for what Ukrainian army has achieved and are still fighting for. The containment of further expansion and the fact that there is very little progress Russian army is making is also an achievement. Russian Soviet stock piles are depleted, their economy is on a downward spiral, untill a few weeks ago they were totally isolated from the rest of the civilised world, that's another achievement.Exposing Russia's bluff of their military might is another achievement. The fact that USA can now "focus on China" is thanks to Ukraine. Everyone in the world was united against the aggressor. What is happening right now is that some of those achievements are being undone and may I ask for who's benefit? So that Trump can make a deal that he promised and restore the economic relations with Russia? It might stop the deaths and fighting now but you are simply taking a "peace debt" from Putin.
I added custom instruction under my Profile settings in the "personal preferences" text box. Something along the lines of "I like to discuss things before wanting the code. Only generate code when I prompt for it. Any question should be answered to as a discussion first and only when prompted should the implementation code be provided". It works well, occasionally I want to see the code straight away but this does not happen as often.
I think my Polestar 2 does this too. If I haven't driven it recently, I can hear the brakes cleaning the rust off the disks the first time I brake. After that, I think it's using regen most of the time.
