Training with weights combined with diet is the best way to lose fat. Cardio exercise is good for cardio respiratory health and helps with calories in/out calculations but adding muscle increases your bodies caloric demand, meaning more fat burn.

As a complete beginner a simple routine of hitting weights twice a week with cardio (30 minutes 2-3 times per week) in between will be plenty. You want to hit each muscle group with 3 hard sets twice a week. A hard set is when you get near (within 2 reps) failure (which means you can’t complete another reporting with good form) with a range of repititions anywhere from 5 to 30.

For a basic full body routine, you want to think about pushing and pulling with arms, legs, and chest/back/shoulders. So bicep curls (pull) and tricep extensions (push), for example. Chest press/fly (push) and rows (pull). Leg curls (pull) and extensions/presses (push). If the gym has a set of circuit machines, use those to start with so you get a feel for the movements.

Look at the Hevy app, which has a free version and has a library of workout routines broken down by beginner/intermediate/advanced and location/equipment (at home, at gym, travel, bodyweight only, dumbbells only, etc). It also has a bunch of community-shated routines.

Diet is going to determine if you lose fat or both fat and muscle. Target about 1 g of protein per pound of bodyweight per day to maintain/gain muscle Split the rest of your calories between unsaturated fats and carbs in whatever way you can maintain. Avoid added sugars. Switch to drinking mostly water, or at least diet soda or carbonated water. Fruit juices, even without added sugars, are loaded with sugar but lack the fiber that is in the raw whole fruit to mitigate the sugar. So don’t switch from soda to an equal volume of fruit juice.

There’s also a metric butt load of good content on YouTube. Channels I like are:

Renaissance Periodization
Jeff Nippard
Jeremy Either
Milo Wolf
Dr Pak

No.

And then larger and larger “handheld” devices made that physically awkward as people tend to hold their phone near the middle to balance the weight and oh look my thumb doesn’t reach the top or bottom anymore!

ok, thanks.

Does AirScan on Linux work to scan-tohcomputer from the device? Or do you have to run [x]sane or some other interactive app on your computer? I’m wanting to use my R Pi as a headless server/backend that a scammer sends to, without having to use any desktop software interactively.

I believe posts are only federated once accounts are followed, and that it is directional. Meaning newandquirky.social doesn’t receive any posts from mastodon.social (for example) until account(s) have been followed and only the followed accounts’ posts (and replies and boosts) are federated. And vice versa.

With the dedicated scanners you’ve tried, which actually work to perform the scanning using the buttons on the scanner instead of running [x]sane or equivalent on your computer?

I’m on an older Synology diskstation (418play) and I found Emby was better packaged to use on that platform. On a Pi I might have gone for Jellyfin instead.

I’ve seen phone cases that have a battery and usb-c cradle built in. Maybe there are some that have extra storage, or even expandable storage.

I have gone from 0 to 3 in a short time, and I find myself wanting ones that I currently don’t have the skills to make proper use of…

One of us! One of us! 😅

I feel strongly that I had done simple drag and drop before, but doing some searches it sure sounds like I must be imagining it. I never tried it with Linux. There’s a guitar pedals !guitarpedals@lemmy.world community that you might try cross-posting to.

Probably just the timing. Mbin was forked from Kbin after the majority of newcomers from Reddit settled on Lemmy over Kbin. Because Kbin was pretty much the one-man show with an unreliable flagship instance during the initial big wave of users coming over.

Tillman fucking Fertita is ambassador to Italy?!

If you can read that, see that they’re on major version 1 with a minor version over 100, and you still think they’re using semver, then that’s on you.

I don’t think they’re using semver. That’s literally what I’m complaining about. I genuinely don’t understand why people here are taking it so hard that I wish the Immich devs were using semver.

As this project is clearly not following semver, the semver guidelines aren’t applicable and haven’t been violated.

Wonderful. Good for them. Good for you. Good for everyone who disagrees with me. Just not for me. And that’s just my opinion, man. And that should be ok with you for me to have it.

if people lost access to something they paid for on Steam or Itch, I would expect a class action lawsuit would be viable, but there would be legal arguments made by Visa and MasterCard that Steam and Itch should be the defendents.

🍻

You can argue the correctness or not of the guidelines put out at semver.org, but I don’t think there’s any room to argue that announcing a 1.x with a change the developers say is a breaking change, which is what Immich have done, fits within the semver.org guidelines.

But it is a service that clients connect to via an API.

Yes, I understand they have declared that. Their declaration does not, however, negate the common semantic versioning standards, found at semver.org. These common standards are significant for admins running shared systems where they automatic upgrade processes based on common semantic versioning rules. The software will stabilize and they will adopt a more stringent policy. But they should still be releasing 0.x versions since they’ve not yet reached it.

Yes indeed. 🙂
