    from what I read, you completely lack basic nutrition knowledge, and this is the real problem, not the failed diets. I'm absolutely convinced that you would get an adequate fit sta…

    +1 as well. most of the people with bad habits understands or (refuses to understand) what doing physical activity works out the symptom, not the cause. unfortunately, it's too eas…

    Blanket reforms will never happen in real world, because we're talking about huge quantities of money involved - a blanket reform the way, say, "many people would like it", would c…

    Motivation is not fleeting; there are different motivations and different qualities. If you teach a dog chasing cars to be disciplined, it will still be a dog chasing cars, but jus…

    They're not "just statistics", as they point to some interesting facts. Americans for example travel less and work more compared to other countries. "6 minutes of education" is def…

    In the past, most of the people didn't spend time watching TV while eating junk food. And yes, I do count calories. I'm committed to staying fit, and counting is not an option.

    People is not either autistic or socialite. Following the same (rhetoric) logic, "if the world was left to you autistic, humanity would extinguish in two generations tops".

    For me it's been a disaster instead, having an N550 (if memory serves me well). Ubuntu used to take a very long time to boot (minutes); I couldn't even reliably watch videos. I was…

    Watch out, you can't easily assume that it's not caused by general bad nutrition and lifestyle. Assuming that you're probably from the USA, where obesity is ramping up, from a (esp…

    As a matter of fact, the vehicle itself is "zero-emissions" and "invisible to the environment". I see your point, but first of all, it would be a very big step ahead if all the veh…
