Metformin is also pretty bad when comes to impact to testosterone levels, at least in most men. The exact mechanism that this happens is that it saps the cholesterol from your blood. This cholesterol would otherwise be used for T productio

After the experience I was more open to interacting to people. The difference between avoiding eye contact and just saying hi to someone can be huge. Instead of just passing by someone I'd stop and talk to them--sometimes for hours. At

Try a mental trick I often use: everyone else is self conscious about how they appear and what other people think of them. Once that sinks in don't be afraid to be yourself even if that means being awkward.

Psychedelics did it for me, I was looking for fun but as an unintended consequence I became much more extrovert. Of course, don't actually do hard drugs without medical supervision. You are more likely to end up worse off. A counter an

That is correct. Ideally we will move to lab grown meat or just lab grown edibles/drinkables that contain all the nutrients you need and you get to choose the ratio of nutrients for each meal.

> due to their advances in weapons Not quite, the weapons the west had "developed" were developed far earlier in the middle east and east Asia. Trebuchets, cannons, guns, gunpowder, crossbows, etc.. The west just adopted them.

I never made a case for legality == morality. Also beware that morality isn't equally defined, what you find moral others will find amoral. As for the pipe and helmet example. The laws and ways of upholding them are the metaphorical he

In a world where there are people that will hit you with a steel pipe and will not be stopped by the legality of the matter then it is your fault for not putting on the helmet. But that isn't a good comparison for this case as what he

If morals and human right are an issue, buying oil from Venezuela would a major upgrade, in that regard, opposed to buying oil from gulf states.

Michael Kofman, an expert in Russian mil., claims that one of the reasons for this is that Russia's military doctrine accounts for cases where air supremacy or superiority cannot be achieved. Shelling a city with Grad and artillery is

That too, if it lost contact with the command post it would probably just go until it ran out of fuel.

I don't trust either Ukraine nor Russia in this matter. I can see Ukraine using it for surveillance and the drone going haywire. I also can see Russia using it as SAM bait but the drone flying off all up to Croatia. I am confused how i

In the worst case, we're left with air-frying as a healthy way of cooking.

Nothing really. Piracy is widespread in my country and a lot of software being pirated isn't translated. End result? People learned English.

There are 10's of millions of primary Russian speakers living outside of Russia. Much more than some Asian, African, and European languages that are regularly translated.

Seems to me like better UX as the users are being informed why they can't make pull requests. Of course this could be done differently but I don't have an issue with it.

It is that type of situation, and it would much better if only people could take it stoically. But that won't happen, economic hardship hurts a lot and people in democratic systems will just vote away any ecological provisions that are

Highly unlikely that they can stir up anything that far away. Another fact working against this theory is that B&H has EUFOR and NATO bases and is surrounded by mostly NATO members. I think the recent situation around Ukraine actually d

Ukraine doesn't really have the firepower to hit back. All territories it loses are really hard to recover. Russia is also sprinting to take the Dniepr river which would make any counter-attack nearly impossible. They are also going fo
