[The Lunduke Journal @LundukeJournal]

Colorado Democrats have introduced new legislation which would require Operating Systems (such as Linux or Windows) to perform age verification at the system level.

“Age Attestation on Computing Devices” (SB26-051) would:

- Apply to all Operating Systems, Open Source or proprietary (Linux, FreeBSD, macOS, etc.).

- Require the OS to set a user’s age upon account creation, and store that within the system.

- Require the OS to provide an API for application developers to request an age (or “age bracket”) for the user.

- Institute a $7,500 fine for “intentional violation” of the bill (which would include refusing to implement the age verification and API).

This version of the bill does not indicate how the age of the user would be verified (outside of a good faith declaration of age). That language is currently vague and open to wide interpretation.

@Mqsley @JCDFitness @maxitheceo @bioreg @PGC1a_RB Yeah, I sleep pretty well. Usually only 45-75min of deep, if I believe the trackers. Was hoping to feel like a million bucks 😅

@Mqsley @JCDFitness @maxitheceo @bioreg @PGC1a_RB Apple Watch, eightsleep, and vibes

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@Mqsley @JCDFitness @maxitheceo @bioreg @PGC1a_RB I tried this stuff and it seems to have done absolutely nothing for me. No change in sleep or anything notable at all.

Love the window seat

[O.W. Root @owroot]

The window seat on a plane is an incredible modern blessing. Imagine our ancestors getting to take in such a view. They would have been stunned, speechless. And yet, some close the shade and do what? My God.

I can't understand those who shut the shade, and shut out the world.

“both said it’s likely the plaque was laid down early in life and my diet changes have helped and slowed it down”

This is an ad-hoc hypothesis, and unfalsifiable.

Also, do we know that plaque volume is associated with/driven by ApoB-years? I know there are papers that show “risk” is, but how about actual measured plaque?

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@sudas1891 @Only1MoreThing @exfatloss Ah, it’s pasteurized, and probably not as good as Rodda’s. It’s unpasteurized and made in the container, so has quite a unique texture and flavor.

@Only1MoreThing @exfatloss You can’t get proper clotted cream in the US, it’s illegal. Whole Foods and stuff have double cream.

@exfatloss Not acre-feet?

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@Mqsley @anabology I’m sure it could be done, but I didn’t have the time or patience for that. I have a PNOE if you want to borrow it for an experiment.

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@Mqsley @anabology There are software licensing issues with almost all of them, it’s a minefield.

@Libertas2008 @exfatloss Depends if you count the % of insoluble fiber as 2kcal/g or not. I counted it, to be fair.

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@exfatloss If you do the math, you can see that the numbers are totally wrong. 2 of 3 have about 46kcal if the other info is to be trusted…

[Nathan Owens @NathanEqualsOne]

@cerv3ra @exfatloss I too have access to infinite bananas… compelling to sorta try. Don’t think I want 100% bananas tho.

Got my VO2Max as measured by indirect calorimeter over 60ml/min/kg!
