Yes I agree, you said it better. There’s a huge conflict of interest and “trust me bro” involved when companies save money by switching ingredients. Most of these studies on the health effects of those ingredients are directly funded by those companies as well. If anything it’s kind of insane to trust those studies at that point, it’s like trusting big oil’s studies on global warming.

You could almost say it’s timeless

Say it out loud lol

Sometimes you really want to Sukuna human sausage

Google says the age of independence in Japan is 18, so he’s technically a minor as you say. But also I can’t imagine a police officer dragging him to a foster home. I think when you get magic powers you kind of stop caring about normal society’s rules

Inbox zero doesn’t mean deleting all your emails lol. It just means getting them out of your inbox. I do this myself. For each email in my inbox I “do something” with it instead of just leaving it there. Put it in a folder, tag it, spam, delete, archive, anything. Personally I use 3 zones:

• inbox: currently to-do. Things I need to reply to or action I “flag” so they’re at the top. Everything else is moved either to
• archive: things I might need in the future. Any important correspondence. Bills. Etc. The important part is it is “out of sight”.
• trash. Auto deleted after 30 days in case I change my mind and actually need it. Most emails go to trash. Aggressively unsubscribe from newsletters.

Again you’re only picking out the rare good things. I can’t help but feel like you’re being disingenuous and deliberately trying to misunderstand me or something. When I say frozen food I clearly don’t mean spinach pucks. By emulsifiers I don’t mean egg whites or EVOO.

That’s why I said it’s arbitrary, because as soon as you try and write down any actual rules or definitions, it doesn’t work anymore, and pizza becomes a vegetable.

The fact of the matter is, obesity and diabetes and colon cancer were practically nonexistent 200 years ago, and now they’re epidemics. Our diets are garbage. I’m not claiming I know the exact thing that causes all this trouble, but I think it’s fair to say that maybe things like carrageenan and partially hydrogenated fat should be avoided. Anything that is a cheaper substitute that a company uses instead of an organic product should be met with suspicion.

In fact let’s do a case study. The ingredients list on a frozen pizza is like an essay. There’s this pizza that I used to buy that would consistently make me have horrific diarrhoea and digestive issues. Most of the ingredients are ok. But oh look,

• the tomato sauce contains a huge amount of “vegetable oil” in it. Which vegetable? How was the oil made?
• The base contains “E460 microcrystalline cellulose”. Why is there wood pulp in my pizza?
• The sauce and cheese also contains “E200 sorbic acid”. This just sounds terrible in general.
• The base also contains “E471 mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids”. The fuck lol.
• And tapioca starch. I don’t like tapioca. Tapioca doesn’t belong in pizza.

Why is all this crap in a pizza? One of these things makes me severely unwell, but none of them belong in a pizza. You can go on about how good ultra processed foods are, but you’ll never convince me that all these additives are good for you, no matter if they are technically approved or not. I believe that you need to be able to understand every ingredient in your food and why it’s there. Maybe I just have an unusually sensitive stomach, but even one preservative or E code emulsifier or additive gives me troubles.

Go look at what’s actually in white bread. modified tapioca starch (1413), soy flour, acacia gum, vegetable emulsifiers (481, 471, 472e). You can’t tell me that’s healthy.

I have good news for you, you get to spend days learning an entire skillset to solve 1 specific problem!

In all seriousness though, there’s actually a big problem with email “quoting” as you say, that each email client will re create the entire email chain in it’s own format, leading to a complete mess.

If you still have access to that email client, it might be easier to see if there’s an export feature to export them as actual email files, which would be much easier to process than a word document.

Another option, if you are ok with “close enough” and some inaccuracies, you could ask an A.I. like Claude to process these files for you.

Otherwise you’re probably stuck with manual tedious processing. Personally I would just start again and ignore the file you have. Create an actual indexed word document with a table of contents so you can actually find anything. Add a header per email topic, with a sub header per message / reply. Manually copy paste, being careful not to include the quote this time.

Yeah it’s not like you’ll notice a huge difference, unless your specific game starts/stops working. Otherwise incremental fixes to dx12 or embedded video playback is kind of elementary. For example, Spyro Reignited Trilogy in particular seems to break / get fixed periodically, possibly due to the way they did cutscenes in that game.

That’s why I said it’s kind of arbitrary. There’s no easy way to quantify it or write down a set of rules that you can follow. Water processing is good, but white bread is bad. Butter is good but margarine and hydrogenated oil is bad. Freezing your own meals is good but store bought frozen meals is bad. Olive oil is good but commercial emulsifiers and refined seed oil are bad. Preserving in salt is good but commercial preservatives are bad. Adding salt to food is good but fast food has too much salt and is bad. Iodising salt is good and adding folate to bread is good.

The line is complicated and blurry and changes for each person even. The only semi-consistent rule I can find, is that as soon as a company is involved and it becomes a “product”, it seems to get bad. Their motivation is to make the food addictively delicious, last forever on the shelf, for maximum profit, regardless of how much it fucks you up. Those other kinds of processes (like water treatment) are government funded for the betterment of public health. A company gives zero fucks if you get leaky gut or die of heart failure or get diabetes or obesity or whatever, as long as they’re not legally liable.

Water is not what I’m talking about and you know it lol. Comparing my argument to eating literal shit is just crass. C’mon man, you can do better.

Even the fundamentals keep thrashing all over the place. Red meat good. No wait it’s bad. No it’s good again but only these kinds. No wait it’s the cooking that’s bad. Ok now it’s the saturated fat. Actually only these kinds of saturated fat. Carbs are good. No they’re bad again. Ok some of them are good. No not those ones. Vegetables are good. But not starch. Actually nevermind starch is ok.

Honestly just fuck it. I have no problem with science evolving over time, but specifically food science is very confidently wrong all the time, often completely contradicting itself every few years. They genuinely have no idea what they’re doing, it’s practically pseudoscience. Honestly you may as well ask A.I. and get a hallucinated list of healthy food, or flip a coin for every food you eat.

Ignore what everyone tells you, listen to your body, and eat what makes you feel good. Not in a dopamine sugar way, but in the genuine way. Like how a homemade hearty stew makes you feel. You already know what’s good for you, just tune out the noise and stop overthinking it.

Honestly, I don’t even trust food science anymore to tell me what is healthy or not. I’ve completely lost faith that they have any idea of what they’re talking about. The industry keeps changing their mind and fucking us around. I’m sure in 10 years they’ll be like, oh noo by the way we were completely wrong about saturated fat too.

I have a simple test. Is it highly processed? Unhealthy. My definition of “highly processed” being kind of arbitrary. Looking online, palm oil can be healthy but the stuff used commercially is unrecognisable from the initial product. I’m sure if you got a palm fruit and freshly squeezed it, you’d be eating something healthy. But whatever is in that apple pie I wouldn’t trust it. What I was reading

I trust butter because you can make it yourself at home. I don’t trust margarine. Just eat normal food.

If you had a building with 1000 evil people, and 1 good person, is it ok to destroy it? I don’t know the answer to that, but I wouldn’t be able to do it personally. Seems like a variant of the trolley problem.

You’d think so based on how quickly it died, but it was a $70 USD (on 50% discount) “Colgate Electric Toothbrush Series 2”. Only lasted 12 months. And no I didn’t get it wet, but it does live in the bathroom (like all toothbrushes).

My Hero Academia did this decently well with

That’s every purchase in 2026 unfortunately. If you just buy something carelessly it’ll be bad and not work :/

I bought extra heads when I bought the toothbrush because they always stop making them and forcing me to replace it… Instead the charging dock thing was completely corroded and there’s no way to charge the actual toothbrush anymore… I miss the replaceable battery ones at this point

I’ve always had to manually install drivers every time I set up a distro (usually Ubuntu variant). After that I do noticed it updates semi randomly over time, which usually causes some games to stop working, but c’est la vie

Every day I regret buying the NVIDIA gpu lol. Next time I’m getting AMD for sure
