sharkfucker420, (edited ) in Does tinned food have any nutrition or is it just empty calories?
@sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml avatar

It has most of the nutritional value it had before it was canned but some vitamins degrade pretty rapidly.

One of the factors in food preservation and nutrition is the stability of different vitamins. Specifically, there are water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins.

Water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water. They are less stable and more affected by processing and include folate, thiamine, and vitamin C. Fat-soluble vitamins dissolve in fat. They’re more stable and include water, vitamin A, D, E, and K. Fat-soluble vitamins are less effected by cooking and preserving.

Basically it depends on what the food is and how it is preserved

If I’m honest with you though there is no harm in eating canned food and no such thing as “empty calories” all of your daily nutrients are important and you should get them but not meeting you daily quota isn’t such a huge deal as long as it isn’t especially consistent. Calories are your fuel but you can think of vitamins and micro nutrients as your oil that keeps things running smoothly.

If your diet is primarily canned goods I would recommend taking a multivitamin or altering your diet to include fresh produce containing those water soluble vitamins.

rdyoung,

I would argue that anything with more carbs, sugar, etc than fat and protein is by definition empty calories and in the case of soda and juice (yes even fruit juice) it’s even worse because of the complete lack of nutrients and what sugar does to your insulin response, hunger response, etc.

You can and people do make breads that are heavier and packed with more nutrients. I don’t remember the specifics but simply letting dough rise for longer than you usually would does add some nutrients but it’s still not outweighed by the negative effects of a carb heavy diet.

hawgietonight, in Have you ever learned anything on the spot?

I learnt (the hard way):

  • There are electrified fences
  • You don’t learn to wheelie while clipped in
  • Some dogs shouldn’t be touched
  • Binging on sugar free candy will keep you close to the toilet.

Just recently I found out that my new razer mouse can enable/disable scroll wheel indexation by pressing the small button next to it.

Passerby6497,

You don’t learn to wheelie while clipped in

I’m curious about the story for this one.

hawgietonight,

Picture 18 y/o me in the 90’s with my new Marin Bear Valley SE and trick wellgo clipless pedals. No YouTube at the time, so had to figure stuff out intuitively… so I started to practice doing wheelies (while clipped in), and before you know it, I overshoot it a bit and my inexperience getting loose from the pedals had me land hard on my back.

Now doing tricks with the bike is second nature, but it did take some bruises. Just remember to cover the rear brake ;)

MrZee, in Is it normal for your BP to rise after quitting

Elevated blood pressure is a common alcohol withdrawal symptom, but it looks like 9 days may be a long time for this symptom to last. As you’ve already seen from others, talking to a dr is probably a good idea at this point (if you have the means to do so).

leanleft, in What are some must have Firefox plugins?
@leanleft@lemmy.ml avatar

umatrix (or ublock or noscript)
chameleon
neatURL
foxyproxy
singlefile

Dehydrated,

uBlock Origin can do everything that NeatURL does. Just enable the “AdGuard URL Tracking Protection” filter list in the settings.

seems like a pretty good list raw.githubusercontent.com/…/filter.txt

Beyond the other obvious choices of DarkReader, uBlock Origin, and Tree Style Tab:

Would I end up having Leechblock activate on here? 🤣

I recently discovered sidebery for tabs. I recommend taking a look. It’s fantastic

shinigamiookamiryuu, in Countries that let anyone in?

The decision to let anyone in is typically a move a country makes because it’s going through population decline. Think Iceland, South Africa, Sicily, Pitcairn… the last of these would be the most rewarding.

Very seldomly does a good country just let anyone in, not just because it doesn’t want to be so generous but also because it doesn’t want to be exploited by people who realize that a good country is letting anyone pass.

Zatore, in What are some must have Firefox plugins?

I recommend:

  1. Ublock
  2. Sponsor Block for Youtube
  3. Return Youtube Dislike
  4. Hide Shorts for Youtube (I actually like shorts, but only on my phone)
  5. Stylus
  6. Decentraleyes
  7. Don’t Accept image/webp
  8. Rotate Image (rotates images in 90 degree increments)
cyberpunk007,

Doesn’t ublock handle the sponsors on YouTube? I never see those.

killeronthecorner,
@killeronthecorner@lemmy.world avatar

It removes ads but doesn’t handle sponsored content that is included directly in the video

Dehydrated,

Just wanted to mention that Piped has SponsorBlock and DeArrow built in. It’s also better for your privacy since you don’t connect to Google servers directly.

cyberpunk007,

Maybe I’m thinking of revanced that is skipping the sponsors…

cyberpunk007,

Is there a website for this on desktop or do I need to compile it and run it as an app

Dehydrated,

There are multiple instances hosting Piped. You can look at the list of public instances and pick one you like: github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances

I also recommend the Libredirect addon, which automatically redirects all YouTube links to Piped.

On Android you can use LibreTube, which also uses Piped.

On iOS you can set up Yattee with this guide to use Piped. But you can also just use it in the browser if you like.

jystfact, in Have you ever learned anything on the spot?

On Google maps, you can zoom in and out with just your thumb by double tap+hold and then moving your thumb up and down

that’s a feature of image viewers as well

allrian,

Whoah ! Nice.Thanks for that info

The only problem is, I’ll have no idea how the hell I was just able to time travel.
Anyone joining me?

habanhero,

I was there and going again tomorrow and not to worry, you will be there.

But don’t drink from the water fountain

recapitated, in Best android app for news aggregation?

I use nextcloud news for rss feeds, and ground news for regular summaries and breaking news, as if I’m important enough to need to know everything right away.

squirrelwithnut, in What are some must have Firefox plugins?

Ublock Origin or AdGuard Containers

SpaceNoodle, in Best android app for news aggregation?

Sync

Ironfist, in Why in the year 2024 and with all the knowledge humans have now do people still believe in religion?

Besides the fear of death that many mentioned already, its also a need to find an answer to how the world works and the need to find purpose in life.

Without these we suffer: Without understanding our environment, we feel our circumstances are out of our control and become anxious. Without purpose we become depressed (there is an excellent book called “from death camp to existentialism” about this subject).

Our brains are asking us for an urgent answer and the best quick answer most people can come with is religion. This is why it exists in every culture in history.
