However, you do still have a choice of what to invest in, even with a 401k.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Have you noticed the new way of promoting horrible food by telling you it has lots of proteinEnglish
1·2 days agoI’m not sure where you think I’m saying you should eat candy bars. You’re projecting someone else’s opinion on my comment. I didn’t say those things.
Firstly, there’s not a single reason that people are obese. And secondly being at a goal weight doesn’t mean that you are either healthy or fit.
If one is to substitute known unhealthy things for possibly harmful things instead of improving their life in general, that’s like giving up cigarettes for vaping in my opinion. Artificial sweeteners could be causing massive harm in ways that are less obvious and harder to pin on diet, but for me, I don’t eat them because they taste terrible. I’d rather not eat sweets as often and have treats made from less refined, more natural ingredients than to eat things with artificial sweeteners and protein packed in for the sake of marketing.
Your accusations of me being judgemental and toxic are interesting, but I’m not going to take the bait. I don’t owe you an explanation of my nuanced opinion outside of the few reasons I’ve already listed.

2·2 days agoI think the jury is still out on artificial sweeteners.
I think anyone that thinks eating something that tastes like a candy bar can be healthy is lying to themselves. I also think there are issues introduced when you are absorbing refined highly processed nutrients. Issues that might seem unrelated but can affect your health more long term.
Your body isn’t just a machine that you can add the correct mixture of things to for proper maintenance. It’s a messy biological system that is dependent on evolutionary history, and there’s a lot of unknowns that have yet to be studied at all.

1·2 days agoNo whey.
But, have you ever considered how much protein your body should have in a meal? Eating too much protein can also be malnutrition. To your point it’s better to have too much protein than too much fat. However if it tastes like it’s full of corn syrup, it probably still is. Or some “healthy” artificial sweetener which your body thinks is the same yet is still empty carbohydrates.

Linux@programming.dev•Trying to learn Linux, coming from windowsEnglish
8·4 days agoLinux is a whole OS so there’s a lot you might want to look at. Luckily, if you get an error message in Linux you can search that error and find a solution.
Also helpful is reading documentation. Bazzite is based on fedora atomic so the first 2 doc links will be the most helpful. 3rd one is for general gaming on Linux. And the 4th one is the arch wiki which will give you a lot of information that will probably go over your head at this point but you might want to look at from time to time.

1·5 days agoI’ve never been to Japan so I have no way of assessing if any of this is good. Remember, LLMs are predictive word generators and they don’t actually think in any way.
If you actually want to plan a trip, I would recommend hoodmaps and research.
