My pixel 1 was and is fine. Pixel 3 was an excellent phone. The only bad phone I recall from Google was the Nexus 5x which was made by LG

I was fat, not anymore; hay fever, gone; gout, gone
I cut out all plant based food and substituted fatty meat and eggs
Beware though that reference ranges are averages of the population the testing lab sees and only sick people get their blood checked.
In comparison I eat almost only beef and eggs. Occasionally chicken and lamb. That had all my blood work in order, though it took 2 years to go from obese to the top of normal the blood work got good in only a couple of weeks
Official stuff, sure, but not system generated email from giant companies like Microsoft
I’m amazed at how much better the official launcher is on Linux than on windows.

So take MS to small claims court. Get an order for them to restore your account and user name per the licence you presumably still have a copy of
I have gotten more free accounts on Minecraft than any other game. I bought it twice on Java (not counting copies I bought for family) and once on bedrock, so when they moved accounts to Microsoft and gave every Java account a bedrock account and every bedrock account a Java account, so I now have three on each version. A second (or third) account is useful for rescuing your main account in some circumstances
They need more than email verification. Some privacy minded people signed up with throwaway email, but probably have other proof of ownership
A search in Gmail (which that used) finds stuff on spam. Also Gmail won’t put a Microsoft company’s mail in spam
The book was Radicalized - a set of short stories, actually from 5 years ago :/
The specific story in the collection was “Unauthorised bread”
Just like everyone else. But also how would you possibly know?
I was not super serious either. I was referencing Corey Doctorow’s recent book, a near future sci-fi
Give it time. It won’t be a licence though, it’ll be a compatible bread subscription for a discounted toaster, with government enforced felonies for using incompatible bread
*Based on how the software and entertainment industries work
And in Australia doing the same it’s “Oy wait up mate, where’s your Ocker licence?” Luckily we don’t need barbeque licenses, tong licenses, etc. we got away from the UK to escape all that bureaucratic red tape
They talk about how they can eat what they want and not get fat as if being fat is a problem. Talking about fat being a problem is fatphobia. Trying to fit a body image your body can’t do is internalised fatphobia. Noticing that nearly no one was fat in 1920, but something like half of us are now, is probably fatphobic. I think accepting a modern diet of processed foods and sugar water drinks is not fatphobic, but suggesting weight loss diets or methods is
What OOP didn’t know is that he was getting worse than obese, he was putting on visceral fat which doesn’t show much.
Being fat isn’t intrinsically unhealthy, but it’s pretty hard to be healthy and obese. It’s pretty hard to be healthy on a diet of packaged foods and factory made drinks
Or to find a long term way of eating that makes you not obese (and not skinny-fat either). I’m on a zero fibre, zero sugar diet which works well — makes me feel good, though it is pretty extreme and isn’t supported by any national dietary guidelines. I have been not obese for over a year and not overweight for a few months
That sounds very fatphobic :/ but really I did it for allergies and health rather than for body image, it just happens to have worked for body image too
Increase your meat (including animal fat) intake, eat eggs.
Your concept of cholesterol is well outdated.
The ancient idea: cholesterol is bad
The old idea: there is low density cholesterol which is bad and high density cholesterol which is good
The current idea: there is low density cholesterol which is returning unloaded high density cholesterol which is good; there is high density cholesterol which is good; there is small dense cholesterol which is bad. That’s all really hard to test for, so get a coronary calcium score instead
Cholesterol carries fat around your body for energy. If you eat too much carbohydrate too often you never give your body any chance to use the fat…
(your body burns energy from most dangerous to least: alcohol immediately as it’s a literal poison; sugars (the main energy in carbohydrate based food) second as too much will destroy nerves - excess is converted to fat and stored to prevent too high concentrations until or unless that system is broken (type 1 diabetes) or over used (type 2) - ; then fat (excess fat is evacuated via faeces or vomit); then protein (protein tastes bad after you have had enough, so it’s hard to overeat))
… and so the cholesterol fails, breaking up and spewing out its load of fat. So the blood test that actually gives useful cholesterol information is high cholesterol with high free fatty acids (FFA) because the FFA is high because of the failed cholesterol
That’s a simplified version and isn’t quite technically correct, I’m not a scientist in that area so I’m not good at recalling the full detail.
We evolved in an environment where most of the year there was mostly meat to eat, along with whatever perennial plants can be found in winter. In summer for a few weeks whatever fruit grew near you was available.
We haven’t had time to adapt to eating grass seeds (wheat, rice, corn, barley, etc). We have only had those in any large amount for 10 000 years which is a blink of an eye evolutionarily. The native Americans of the Great Plains ate only buffalo, eating it fresh during mass kills in summer, and preserving tons of meat and fat as “pemmican” a 50/50 blend of pounded dried meat with melted buffalo fat, sewn into buffalo skins for the rest of the year. When Europeans first saw them they described them as more fine nude than a noble in his finest clothes, tall and built like Adonis. Learning all this I changed to eating only animal products (beef and eggs) and found my health improve incredibly. It helped that I’m allergic to many grasses, including lawn, bamboo, and wheat, and cutting wheat out of my diet, along with all processed foods could only be good
You are correct on excess visceral fat. It’ll kill you. Those broken cholesterol molecules - the small dense cholesterol - is the stuff that collides with blood vessel walls and accumulates calcium. Chronic carbohydrate consumption gives you coronary artery disease.
TLDR; too much carbohydrate too often breaks the body’s fat transport system making the newly discovered bad cholesterol which causes heart disease
Perhaps it’s that I am not an early adopter. I wait until I have good reason to update. It sucks that they make their customers unwitting beta testers, but they seem to have stuff sorted after the phone has been on the market for several months
