science@lemmy.world•Researchers took 44 men and gave either plant-protein or animal-protein supplements for 12 weeks while strength training. There was no statistical difference in muscle strength or mass between groupsEnglish
2·6 days agomost people wildly overestimate how much protein they actually need.
Amen to that. It’s hilarious to watch the protein craze in action. I thought it might gradually die down decades ago, due to being able to find reliable information very easily. Instead it’s gotten remarkably worse over time.

1·9 days agoThanks. Appreciate the info. I’m kinda jazzed about this, TBH. I might buy another low-end gaming machine - this one was one I had specced out in late 2020, but it’s running out of disk space as gave it a very small drive - throw Linux on there, and start migrating over…I don’t want to play high-end games, mostly Metroidvania type of things and my kids play mostly the same types of things - stuff like Undertale, etc.
Linux is always such a pleasure to use. I’d love to remove yet another Windows machine from my life…

1·9 days agoAbout Minecraft - what launcher(s) are you using on Linux? One of my kids is going through and playing all the old versions of the game, but I don’t know if that would work on Linux?

1·9 days agoWell, damn. I might have to get a low-end “gaming” machine and use Linux on it. Windows is so frustrating to use - I don’t want to have my identity managed by their stupid fucking cloud just for a low-end gaming machine. They try to hide the local user path and they seem to keep trying to further enshittify everything about trying to use an OS for the way I want to use it. (Reminds me: I need to read Cory’s book)
I’ve used Windows off and on for years - I mostly stopped paying much attention to MS once I was able to use Mac/Linux for my work daily driver, and only use it in anger for things like gaming and mining.

2·9 days agoDon’t some games have a “Windows only” logo on them? Are you saying it will use Wine to launch Windows only games?
I haven’t tried it yet out of sheer laziness, since I already have several Linux bare metal/VM instances running. Right now I have a Windows machine mostly dedicated to Steam. I have sometimes launched Steam on my macs.

51·9 days agoHave you tried out Steam on there? I don’t know if there are any workarounds to running Steam games that require Windows; otherwise I’d probably switch one of my last Windows machines over.
100%. I don’t work out at the gym, but if there is one thing we don’t need in the world, it would be people gatekeeping others on exercise.
