  • You'll probably have to follow the opt-out flow as outlined in the link you posted. Currently installed apps without a Google-registered signature I guess will be grandfathered in, with updates requiring using the opt-out flow. It will also be possible to get around the measures using adb on a computer, if you're in a rush.

    Not great for sure, but not what I would call world-ending

  • Unless you're in the intended audience for the community, you should probably block it, so that it's kept out of your mind

  • Are you doing this volume at high intensity, aka Zone 4/5? It's a quite significant volume to be doing at that level of vigorous intensity.

    But there's for sure individual differences here. High intensity efforts do provoke hunger for me, but the same may not be true for you!

  • It could happen one day! I'm already getting more than sufficient training, and adding 1 hour of training a day on top of my current volume would be actively counterproductive.

  • That sounds like the most fun you can get with an indoor bike, and I'm happy you're able to do It despite the health issues.

    I will concede that the one type of indoor training I could one day get behind would probably be virtual cycling. Maybe one winter when I decide that running in the dark and wet isn't actually fun. Time will tell.

  • Spending an hour in zone 5 is not exactly what I would call a realistic endeavor, given that zone 5 explicitly is above LT2. Lower zone 4, sure, but you're looking at a race effort at that point

  • Distraction devices tend to be less effective on indoor machines for me personally. I do listen to a bunch of podcasts for outdoor runs/bike rides though, and find them to be an essential part of the process

  • Some things I've learned throughout the years that may be useful to some people:

    • if your aim is to use a lot of energy, dialing down the intensity significantly and working for a longer time is the way to go
    • basically all cardio machines at the gym are going to be boring as all hell, going outside and doing activities is a lot more fun
    • baking in activity into your day-to-day routines is very helpful. Transporting yourself by biking, walking, taking transit, a mix of all of the above makes a large difference
    • cardio as a means of losing weight has a downside in that vigorous exercise provokes a lot of hunger. make sure to combine with small sustainable changes in diet for best results
  • El Niñón

  • Say what you will about Andon, they definitely do know how to market things. This is like the 4th stunt they've done that's become worldwide headlines

  • It's not quite techbro fantasy, the actual point of the whole thing is marketing.

    It's worked quite well at that, the amount of coverage they've garnered from the stunt is remarkable. Bravo, to be honest

  • Ear plugs help. There are good ones that don't bother you that much when sleeping.

  • I can't really say that I have an issue that needs to be resolved, though.

  • I just scrape my tongue a bit with the toothbrush at the end of brushing my teeth, this seems more than sufficient

  • Preventative checks are used in Sweden where there's evidence for their efficacy - for example, mammograms for all women over 40, screening for colorectal cancer for everyone over 60, etc.

    It's just that evidence for efficacy is the bar that each screening has to clear, and general yearly health checkups did not clear that bar.

  • You should probably read the article

  • I wish

  • I imagine having to commute for that amount of distance in a car each day is not helping. I hope your situation improves, you do not deserve the pain

  • If you know where to look, you can get a very respectable bike for not a lot of money.

    Especially considering that car prices have more than kept pace with bike prices
