I think most "kopi luwak" nowadays is produced chemically, rather that using a weasel's digestive system (OK, that's "chemically" too, but you know what I mean :) A while back I visited a kopi luwak farm in Vie

It's hard to tell, but it looks like you had more than me :) I prefer a close-crop "number 2", but it's getting so I'll switch to "number 1" soon, I think! Luckily I kind of suit it. How long did the proce

Wow, the second photo looks so natural! If you don't mind me asking, how much hair did you have before the procedure? (I assume you used to shave your head, as it's totally bald in the first pic)

Someone else in this thread said they got a hair transplant in Turkey for just $1,500, and from the pictures he posted the results were great! Instead of dropping $20k, maybe you could think about a family holiday to Turkey, and your hubby

I think it's incredible that one person, even if they are an experienced game developer, could build something like this in under a year - and it looks great ! Steam store page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/

Another "trick" I've used before is to run everything inside a Hyper-V VM on a locked-down Windows box. Locking down machines makes sense, but won't someone please think of the developers?!

Me too, and that's often how things work in countries other than the US - rationale zoning laws, not no zoning laws.

> Additionally, remove all zoning laws. The free market will handle zoning. Woah there, let's not throw the baby out with the bath water! Zoning laws in the US seem very broken, but they are much more sensible in much of the world.

By 12 I would sometimes (through choice, or because I'd missed the daily bus) walk 4 miles to school along country roads, before cellphones were a thing. I'd also go camping, alone or with friends, in the middle of nowhere, with m

Fruity varieties are almost always a light or medium roast - often you can see this in the colour of the roasted beans, which will be much lighter; I'm colour blind, but I think they're more brown/tan than black.

by GordonS 4y ago
It really depends what coffee beans you are starting with, and the roast, just as it does with "regular", hot brewed coffee. I also like lighter-roasted fruity beans, and cold-brewed tends to reduce the "sourness". IMO c

But... aren't wages in Switzerland also higher than their close neighbours? It's the same thing in Norway - everything seems expensive for visitors, but wages are much higher too.

Yes, something like 3:1 (by weight) at a minimum, for me personally. That would extend the time-to-hypo significantly for me, from 0.5h to 1-1.5h.

Lol, no, eggs are not rare - but eating eggs without also eating carbs at the same time seems to be.

It could be life threatening in the wrong circumstances. For example, one time years ago I was having a bad hypo, and had become very confused - and I was about to get in the car and drive, before my wife stopped me.

Sure, but shouldn't satiety also factor in how long you feel full for? And that's where GI comes in - high GI foods cause blood sugar spikes, and the crash will make you feel hungry again. Pasta is a good example - it feels very

Agree on fasting, I did 5 days before and it was a good experience.

Mashed potato is the worst, by a country mile, but potatoes in any form, hot or cold, will all result in a rapid hypo (just not as rapidly as with mash).

by GordonS 4y ago
Yes, but unless the ratio is heavily skewed towards fat and protein, in reality it makes little difference (as tested with a glucose meter).

Strange, potatoes can spike and crash my blood sugar faster than anything else. I haven't eaten mashed potato in a decade or so, but IIRC it only took half an hour or so before I was trembling, sweating, feeling very anxious and fearfu

I guess you're an outlier (or have a tapeworm :) I physically can't eat any more than 3 eggs because I'd feel completely full.
