Have any wizards did intermittent fasting before? I am planning to do a 24 hours fast only drinking water.I do the 16:8 fasting routine daily as well as having did 20:4 fasting before and a handful times of a 24 hours fast, it's relatively easy and gets further easier with the time, best thing is to start easy and build your way up

its the first 2 and a half to 4 days which suck before your body starts primarily running off ketosis but not everyone has a body that's fully prepared for the shock to the system and so everyone should look into the details of what the human body needs to function properly under zero food stress before trying anything

When I have to go to work I do it, simply because I am not hungry in the mornings before leaving home and usually I am distracted enough to get through to lunch without eating. On the days I'm at home though it's harder to fast since I know how easy it would be to go grab something tasty from the kitchen. I think my skin clears up a bit when I do it for a while and I feel less bloated. I get afternoon headaches on my fasting days sometimes, idk why. I am also definitely not eating enough calories on the IF days since I can't eat a ton in a single sitting, so depending on your goals that would be something to consider.

I am thinking of doing a prolonged fast for personal reasons. I have entered keto before with zero symptoms (replenished electrolytes well) but my main worry is refeeding.

I'm gonna ditch carbs permanently and eat protein/fat forever, the problem is, alongside bone broth, how do I introduce solid food properly? Does any wiz know? Is chewing on soft eggs and shredded chicken very very slowly good enough?

I once tried to follow August dunning's vids on dry fasting, but this type seems quite tougher than simple water fasting, specially when it comes to ending it very carefully

I am a third worlder about to be kicked by his parents, I would appreciate if someone could guide me on how to earn money online. I have no skills, I know some basic coding but ChatGPT codes like 10 times better than me.

I have tried things like UHRC and Clickworker but I could never earn anything, even the documentation was too complicated to understand and act on for HITS. I didn't even get paid, and got no tasks for my third world country so half of the payment systems and jobs aren't even available here.

And also my parents are draconian, if they realise that I am earning than they will demand all that money for themselves, and I really need the money for medical emergencies, I have problems in my spine, vision, and mouth(teeth). Which is why I had to find ways to transfer it to me in such a way that no bills reach my parent's house, and that they don't show up in my current bank account.

If I could earn like 250USD or even half of that per month it would be really helpful to me and if I can earn like 250USD a month in a stable way than I might even manage to move out and live on my own.

Is it even realistic to earn that much? I feel like there are no jobs left online for a third worlder like me, and of course I understand how entitled I am being for asking for a job while not having any notable skills, except that I speak two languages, but then again maybe my skills in my non-native language aren't good enough.

No, affing is when someone buys something through your link, on Amazon for example.

The problem is driving paying traffic to your affiliate linkz. That costs money.

I don't really watch much YouTube but I do like watching Scholagladiatoria sometimes for his videos about old arms and armour. Bluworm is a cool stop-motion animation channel that does animations reminiscent of old pulpy Lovecraft stories and such. Other than that I mostly use it for music I don't feel like downloading.

I like Sabine Hossenfelder for the fact she has one video where she will straight up explain to you what a Higgs boson is, and another one where she described how awful academia and being a graduate student is. Maybe she is grifting according to accusations from another female physics youtuber, but I am more than capable of filtering that out of my brain, as I can most high-theory concepts now adays that have no grounding in reality.

Heh, boy, you couldn't be more wrong.I hate what /pol/ has become, not that it is "in the most popular now". It used to be a truth and freedom loving place open for political discourse without limits. Now it's a place for bots and retards unaware they are talking to bots. That being said the rightwing's regression from race realism into christfaggotry is equally annoying as the left's regression from free speech champions into prude commie feminist. Yes, I hate both sides equally now. Politics are fucked.

2025 4chan is unironically taken over by LGBT (trannies), Israeli bots, NGO-funded bots, three-letter agencies bots, "deradicalization" activists (mostly trannies) and normalfag scum.

Suffering itself isn't evil. Its causing it that is evil.
Also, how can we demonstrate that anything is evil if evil is a term constructed by society to mean many things? We're here discussing exactly what is considered evil, so we can't demonstrate that something is evil until we decide on a definition of evil itself.

AI-generated Ghibli art is straight-up nihilistic, man. It’s like, back in the day, you needed *years* to master that hand-drawn, insanely detailed animation style, right? People put in blood, sweat, and tears—countless hours, all that heart and soul. But now? AI cranks out the same stuff in minutes. You just type a prompt and boom, it spits out something that looks like it took a team of animators a decade to make.

It kinda feels like it makes all that hard work *pointless*, doesn’t it? Like, what was once this sacred art form now just gets *diluted* by tech. And that’s not just the artist’s problem—it’s everyone’s problem. AI’s coming for jobs, man. People in creative fields, animators, illustrators? Pretty soon, they’re all gonna be irrelevant because some program can do it faster, cheaper, and without giving a damn. The whole idea of *earning* your living with skill and craftsmanship? Gone. Just like that. Feels like we’re all being replaced by machines, and for what? So we can sit here watching a bunch of soulless art get churned out? It’s depressing, A part me is happy with the through normgroids are going to suffer and lose their jobs.

When AI has wrote every word of the text, AI is just too baked into it. It has its voice and nuances. If that extra 30% means a truly great work of human writing it can't be done. Just like it would be better to just start from scratch than to edit a bad writer into a masterpiece.

If the goal is just to fool the average reader. Then yes that can be done. There are obvious tics like em dashes to take out. At the very least you got the inquisitors hesitating on the border.

That's exactly why it is pessimistic for anyone whose main talent was writing or art. It's two different standards. Creating something brilliant and powerful that you can be proud of vs something that can fool consumers. And in such a world there's little motivation to strive for the 1st. The average plebian already likes unedited AI poetry better than human classics.
