It takes a while for bacteria in your gut to adjust. Like a big part of why fiber is good for you is because it's food for the good guys there, but it takes a while for them to reproduce to exploit the new opportunity of increased nutrition. Thus radical changes in diet lead to the population ending up in an imbalance as some bacteria can't survive anymore and others have yet to take their place. So it's a good idea to make any changes gradually and only add fiber again when your gut has adjusted.

That said, you could also try eating fermented vegetables like kimchi and sauerkraut along with your fiber supplement. Fermented vegetables not only have fiber, but they also have lactic acid bacteria which eat fiber. You get a good population of fiber eating bacteria sooner.

Edit: Also fermented dairy can be good. Butter milk, yoghurt, kefir, sur and so on. You can make a pretty refreshing drink by mixing one part of greek yoghurt with one part of water. It's sweet and sour much like soda, but probably way better for you than that. If you use vegan dairy alternatives, there are also fermented options there.

Debian sounds like it would fit you pretty well. It's a precompiled distro that's package managed via apt. KDE works just fine on it and there's probably all sorts of small familiar things given Debian gave birth to Ubuntu.

I've found the stable version to be incredibly stable in the past and the testing release has a bit fresher set of packages if you're willing to a risk of occasional jank. If you willing to work a bit for fresher packages still you can find uptodate debian packages of popular software maintained some else than the Debian folks themselves, I used to use a bleeding edge daily version of Emacs myself and installed Spotify from their own repository.

The one made by me is the best, btw. Saturn-Valley. I refuse to be modest, but I do love how there is a site that I can make look like the file loading screen of EarthBound. I believe that a lot more sites could take inspiration from that game!

well it's pretty unfair comparison as no-one would ever suspect yoshi of anything but athleticism.

It's beautiful imo thanks for telling.

Yeah thanks. Like I avoided doing the task for about four days, but when I posted I got it done in under 30 minutes. Like, whatever, it's a bit irrational to behave like this, but somehow telling someone else about what I need to do helps me put back on track.

Tbh I have the feeling that the real dystopian parts of this will be the social ones, image generation brrr is really the innocuous part to me. Like imagine Disney automating in-betweening work using patented proprietary methods, outcompeting every other animation studio in the business. I fear the backlash will lead to an expansion of copyright, whereas, as a provisional demand at least, we could be demanding something cooler like basic income.

All that said it's cool to have someone deep in the topic around here.

Real good shit, thank so much voxpoplar.

I did it. Thank you for your support in these trying times.

I kinda feel like there's a misunderstanding why astrology and occult have been seen as cool in the first place. People into those have been into them despite the polite society seeing them as silly. It's this disregard for respectability which makes them cool. Making it a wholesome queer aesthetic that demands to be respected misses the point and also any "wholesome" social space is pretty unbearable imo. Not everything needs to be a fandom.

I feel like queer spaces have really happily embraced up the gendered marketing.

Yeah I definitely agree. My expectations by now really are that it's a bunch of people with somewhat aligned interests inopposition to cishet norms and anything beyond that is a result of struggle.

Also on an entirely different tack: I just dislike how in some queer and SJ spaces it's beyond gauche to consider astrology silly. Like we ought to have some kind of reverent attitude towards it or we're some hegemonic white cishet dudebros. Like it's ok to like goofy and silly things and not to expect people to all agree with it or to think that voicing disagreement is a moral failure.

I appreciate this post, I've never even thought about this angle into it.

Link is dead because he lost to Ganon and now is a ghost who must spook Ganon to make him pee his pants as a revenge.

It took me three weeks to watch this video.

I just read a little and apparently the type system is Turing complete? That's kinda funny, I wonder how common that is.

As a kid I had a demo cd that had you walk in a space ship to access video game demos and one of them was the Beavis and Butthead adventure game demo. Probably should watch the show and play the game someday!

"F'mboys? Oh Om'las is filthy rich thanks to f'mboy. "

I feel like every social media platform should come along with a dedicated PvP arenas where all rules about respect and common decency are forgotten. Many of us in the work force would have our days immeasurably improved through memetastic gladiator fights.

Wow looking or touching /r/SRS in our Anno Domini 2022? TBH it was cathartic and funny to yell at poop and see how upset it made people when basically it was all with-in the freezepeach norms your average gentlesir poster supposedly subscribed to. Also it was hilarious what a boogeyman that subreddit was back in the day!

That said, I feel like the Social Justice nexus of early 10's really doesn't exist anymore, sort of like the edgelord right got largely ingested by the MAGA machine and became more mainstream, not that their views ever were that far of from the conservatives except for liking weed and weeb stuff.

Go to some swampy ass place. Jet fuel can't burn well hydrated tree trunks.

Remember the great upset of 201X when Crunchy Roll announced their own magical school girl anime? I was there, on the front lines, seeing Fans With Concerns get infinitely mad about a kinda underwhelming trailer for a children's cartoon. (I have the gnawing suspicion that the trailer was actually directed towards actual parents and kids inorder to market CR as a wholesome place for families and not just otaku perverts. It was a silly trailer none-the-less.)

The reasons for upset may have been different than what was openly claimed and once the outrage machine went brrr, it was infinite bad takes on CalArts style that clearly hadn't ever read the original John Kricfalusi essay, smh. That essay was mad petty tho and should be rightly ignored as an old man (old before his time indeed) yelling at clouds.

But one bad cartoon aside, while caring about bad faith art and media criticism has its value on its own terms, this kind of upset is especially worrisome for the possibilities and livelihoods of artists from marginalized groups. The scrutiny and standards applied to them is unfairly high and Sarah Z along with co-writer Emily take on these topics and more on this autopsy of the High Guardian Spice controversy.

Tbh I don't personally put much value on niceness per se. Pretty direct conflict has its merits! I feel like the culture here just kinda sits on some equilibrium point where we don't have much need to be rude to each other, so the fallout of that end up this place being one of the chillest places on the internet (especially if you use my custom Saturn Valley CSS theme). I do like it here.

Gonna say: I am almost disappointed that this was a long video, again. I was looking forward to watching a two hour one, thinking that Tim had left overperforming in his past. IDK I'm still going to watch it, but I've seen Tokimemo Memorial vid for three times, have no regrets, and yet it feels incredible that I've dedicated 18 hours of my life into a game I'll never play.

At least I am back to listening Nujabes, but it's too good to be just pure background music.

If it's not windy! I agree. Sweet dribble.
