It suffers partially from contrived exposition. It seems whenever a Dune film is made, the filmmakers tend to try to include as much of the lore as tolerably possible. They could've just started off the first film with Paul entering a room to encounter Gaius Helen Mohiam and the audience being introduced to the box.


That's too early -- we'd have no reason to care about him by then. But that would work as the second scene potentially.


Bioavailability of protein from vegetables is significantly less than from animals.


That statement usually comes from a misinterpretation of PDCAAS which only measures the limiting amino acid in a food. If you put any weight behind PDCAAS, then you have to grant that plant proteins have perfect PDCAAS scores if you eat more than one plant.

But there's research on strength performance outcomes on plant protein, those eating enough plant protein in total don't have any different outcomes. I don't see why this would move the needle for you.


The broken satiety mechanism is a result of hormone imbalance caused by a poor nutritional diet. Highly processed foods, an overabundance of sugar, artificial sweeteners, salt, and refined vegetable/seed oils, a carb-heavy diet, deficiency of essential micronutrients, and so on causes deleterious effects on the human body.

People need to eat less junk and eat more natural whole foods.


Not OP but there were some decent ones in the comparison box w/ the slider (such as Source Code Pro). Deja Vu Sans Mono is another good one.


I daily Inconsolata (well, technically the ligaturized version). I find it extremely legible, and most importantly, it's easy on the eyes. A lot of programming fonts tend to be too angular for my tastes (I've tried SF Mono and plenty others, and settled on Inconsolata.)

Really, programming fonts are down to taste -- there's not objectively a best one; for an example of that, look in this thread: some people like Victor Mono, whilst others dislike it, and that's fine!


Thank you for being a voice of reason :)

+1 for Inconsolata, by the way, lovely font!


Pareto principle in full effect


F-Droid apps do not require Google Play services (that's part of its raison d'être) and will work fine on Graphene OS. Aurora Store, on the other hand, depends on the app in question. If it's a paid app that requires Google Pay, then it won't be compatible.


I wouldn't say 12/12 counts as intermittent fasting, but it sounds like it's been working for you so keep on.


Everyone has their own rules on this stuff. On 16/8 I couldn’t get enough calories


Just set the forwarding address as the recovery email.


They'd have to go back in time to do that if they can't get in... that's the point.


Reminds me of how Carl Sagan wrote about his experiences with cannabis usage (under the pseudonym Mr. X, as to avoid the social stigma associated with it at the time).


> (Edit: you also require that users have Google Play or the App Store.)

This is incorrect. You don't need Google Play to use Signal on Android. You can download the APK from https://signal.org/android/apk/

Then verify with SHA256 and you're golden.


And to pre-empt the followup misinfo: you can also use that without Google Play Services. I do.
