‘Right to Repair for Your Body’: The Rise of DIY, Pirated Medicine
  • Medicine still works in europe and is also being developed in europe. Maybe look at how the EU/european countries do it? A lot of it is having regulations. The free market isn't free if the choice between getting the product or not is the difference between life and death.

  • Also maybe talk to your doctor. Chugging a lot of water constantly and still being thirsty is a potentially a sign of diabetes.

  • Cardio alone will allow you to lose weight for sure. If you have a net higher energy expenditure through a day, you will burn more calories and if the diet stays the same you will lose weight.

    The argument is just about how you increase that expenditure. Having more muscle mass and just existing will burn more calories and regularly doing cardio will burn more calories.

    Will you be more lazy and thus expend less 'base' energy on days that you do cardio? Probably. That just means that you have to do enough cardio to offset that difference.

    You know what's even easier than both cardio and gaining muscle though? Not drinking calories, using lean ground beef instead of full fat, replacing some of the carbs in your meals by more veggies, eating fruits instead of sugary snacks, getting more protein in your diet, ... If you're consuming a fuckton of calories a day, there's no amount of muscle that'll allow you to lose weight.

    This will surely stop people making fun of HR
  • Fellow belgian here.

    While I agree with what you wrote here there are some other forms of employment too, which do not get the same protections: student jobs, interim jobs and I think flexijobs.

    IIRC, not too long ago there was even quite a fuss about interim jobs being abused for long-term employment without worker protections.

    On the Internet, what is a dead giveaway that someone is actually a kid?
  • Specifically in games: constantly repeating the flavor of the month insults. Typically some influencer comes up with a funny insult then for the rest of the month some kids use that one singular insult for every situation

  • I don't recall where I heard this advice but someone once told me that when he's in this situation he asks his SO "do you want solutions or to vent?" Probably doesn't work for everyone but I liked the idea
