@peterrhague I thought you had to start with vegetarians, because of prion diseases?

Good advice. When you have to resort to cannibalism, fry up the middle aged people who don’t work out. More flavoursome.

This is a picture of what muscle looks like at 25 vs. 55 Left is healthy dense muscle. Right is unhealthy muscle with fat marbled like a ribeye. It's called myosteatosis, and for many people, it is already happening. One study tracked adults aged 74 and older and found that muscle fat increased by 48.5% in men and 29% in women. As you get older, fat starts to infiltrate the muscle itself. This can lead to weaker muscles that look the same on the outside, worse insulin sensitivity, a higher risk of falls and fractures, and a faster decline in your 60s, 70s, and 80s. Your home scale won't catch this. By the time someone feels it, they have already lost years of function. The good news is that it is reversible. The top four things that move the needle are: 1. The foundation is getting your body metabolically healthy 2. Lifting heavy three times per week so the muscle stays dense. 3. Eating 0.8 to 1 g of protein per pound of body weight Walking daily 4. Fixing your sleep patterns You can't out supplement this. The only things that reverse it are lifting heavy things and not being too fat.

@peterrhague The idea of AC being bad for the climate is so stupid anyway. Even in the uk, the times you want it blasting are the times that solar PV is desperately looking for something to power. If you have home solar, you should be able to have a house like a fridge today for free.

I'm considered a climate criminal in the UK for having AC. But I want more AC in my house. And I want to go beyond it - I want full on home ECLSS which lets me control every aspect of the air - not just temperature and humidity, but CO2, VOC levels etc.

@UrbanCourtyard Courtyard block with a river running through it? 2 inhabited bridges?

You see them right? You don’t even need me to do the AI do you?

@AnnaClarke_____ Do it all in warehouses with robots. Weather doesn’t matter!

Attempting to grow all our own food would be the fastest way to food insecurity - a drought or bad harvest one year, and people would starve.

National food security should be a top priority!🙌🏼

@peterrhague And I can watch it without customers interrupting! 🥳

Ed Miliband's department quietly ditched plans today to require solar canopies on new car parks. Despite a big push for more British home made solar power, it seems a mandate on car parks may be more trouble than it's worth. Read more for free here bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@peterrhague Doing a manned flyby on its own seems kind of odd tbh. It would sort of make sense if it also included overseeing / remotely operating a landing of stuff humans will need. Even on a flyby they’d have a good few days where they could do that without transmission delay.

They dropped a Mars flyby announcement on us a few minutes before launch??

@fesshole By the chefs I know you’re impressive - mostly it’s the filthiest takeaway you can find!

I am a chef and I work in a restaurant and I have to create really fancy dishes for people. Everyone thinks that I must cook really fancy meals at home. I actually chuck fish fingers and oven chips in the air fryer and have them & beans. No way am I fannying about in my kitchen.

@peterrhague 12:30am would be good, work should have failed off a bit by then and I might get to watch it uninterrupted!

@MattZeitlin There are a few interesting articles floating around about the council flats that were originally on top of the Arndale centre when it was first built.

@peterrhague Hoppy to the Smithsonian eventually? Or should Starbase have its own museum?

@UrbanCourtyard Can we have a block where the courtyard is covered with a solar PV canopy? Still lets most of the light through, channels most of the rain into storage. Block level renewable energy and non-potable water use.

for every ten courtyard blocks, the boys may have one LED solarpunk tower

@peterrhague I’m annoyed they moved it from Tuesday, cos I’m in work tonight. I’ll take the hate, but I’m hoping for a scrub so I can watch it properly.

“Yield to us, despite having priority in this situation, or we might kill you”
Yes, cyclists can be annoying and self righteous. But in this situation the cyclist is 100% right and the driver 100% wrong.
I drive in Cambridge. You have to know how to turn left properly there.

@alelliott88 Good shout tbf, I’d have gone Hebden Bridge as well.

@avidseries People making phone calls in situations where they’d obviously text. Including while hiding behind furniture in the same room as someone who conveniently doesn’t hear them TALKING ON THE PHONE!

Things that regularly happen in movies that rarely happen in real life:
(1) Ordering food or drinks at a restaurant or bar and then not eating the food or drinking the drink, and leaving without paying.
(2) People ending phone conversations without saying goodbye.
(3) Female protagonists beating up muscular and much larger male bad guys.
(4) Statistically improbable mixed-race romantic pairings (e.g. East Asian man and black woman).
(5) Characters driving vehicles and not looking at the road while engaged in conversation with a passenger.
(6) Having sex under the sheets.
(7) Important business meetings in a conference room lasting about a minute or two.
(8) Middle-income characters living in expensive homes or apartments that they couldn't possibly afford.
(9)Ordinary people casually dropping f-bombs every sentence or two.
(10) Women waking up in the morning with make-up on and perfectly arranged hair.

@KissMyWhip2 @TopDrawer_Art This was in 2016! But the BBC still hadn’t caught up, it was childish nonsense compared to the mighty fishing industry (which employed fewer people than Harrods - one department store!)

@DrBurkstrom @TopDrawer_Art Exactly how it was back then computer games were stupid. Now they are bigger than Hollywood and we blew it. Zap 64 is still the best monthly mag ever !!

It’s sad that the UK never really gave their gaming industry the spotlight it deserved, and celebrate it as part of their culture - in the same way Japan did.
The ZX Spectrum, Lemmings, GTA, Psygnosis, Tomb Raider, Rareware, the Super FX chip, the list goes on.

@OldSheffield Awesome! Is it also going to be covered with solar? Would up the cost a bit, but be amazing.

Huge progress at Forgemasters on the new 30,000m² machine shop on Weedon Street to house advanced vertical turning lathes. Apologies for rubbish photo, it's that vast I need a drone to capture it #Sheffield
