Just name it Wig. It's cleaner. <SeanParker.gif>

Hey wyclif! I'll take your idea! amazing! really really like it! wig let it be!

In that sense, AI is a tremendous learning tool. You could have learned about those subjects before, but it would have taken exponentially longer to search, scan, appropriate, and integrate them together to form a potential solution to a real-world problem.


Many people don't realise how evil and terrible shingles can be, thinking "oh it's just itchy skin." No. It is much, much worse than that, and it's very painful as well.


What kind of salt to water ratio do you use, just out of curiosity because I've been doing intermittent fasting for a while now.


I don't really measure it as I tune by taste these days. I usually soak a piece of lime/lemon overnight, and sometimes I add ginger or cumumber and a generous sprinkle of salt to a big water jar. I tried some of the other minerals additives, but really didn't feel lots of added value, so defaulted to pure salt.


I laughed, but in all seriousness I too was interested in the amount of salt he's using for this.


Not OP, but I do a 36-hour fast once a week. I drink black coffee and water, but I mix one very small salt packet (probably no more than 1/2 tsp) in with one 8-oz glass of water around noon for "lunch". For the most part, that does well enough to stave off the next-day side effects.


I keep tiny containers around to pick some up with the touch of a wet finger a few times a day. Helps me experiment with how much keeps the keto flu at bay. Also frequent MCT oil from a squeeze bottle.


A note on English: "Fresh off the press" is the colloquialism you're looking for, not "Fresh out of press."


Thanks!


What key serves as "clear" in this game?


I don't think the OP was suggesting it would be a good life if by "good" you mean a life of relative comfort. I think his claim was much more modest. The point is that at that time a farm laborer was valued by the local community.


Farm laborers were probably at the bottom of the social ladder for working rural people. They were usually fully dependent on the owner of the farm that they worked on. Think of the cowboys in the bunkhouse in "Yellowstone" except way worse.


That’s exactly right. Especially during the time my great grandparents were young—the Great Depression. A farm laborer certainly wasn’t a respected member of society. Many of them became hobos traveling from town to town looking for any work they could find.


"Aristotle, not Nietzche."


After Virtue is his most important work, I think, but the above titles are the logical follow-ups to read next.
