Old-school gym lore suggested that each pound of muscle burned 50 calories per day. The more common figure you’ll hear from sciency folks is 6 calories. The truth is somewhere in the middle.

I recommend browsing videos from Squat University on Instagram and seeing if you can identify the specific type and cause of knee pain and rehabbing that before you write it off as "part of aging".
I've had to resort to multiple apps and they don't work GREAT even when combined. I was just complaining about this!
I have Auto Photo Cut Paste for cutting faces/other parts out of photos fairly cleanly, and Picsart for actually combining/putting it together, but the Picsart tools seem kind of limited. It's not a full Photoshop replacement.
Going from Tears of the Kingdom to Far Cry 5 is...quite an experience
I've played other Ubisoft games before, most recently AC Odyssey. Been on a Switch kick for a minute and smashed 200 hours in TOTK, potentially one of my favorite games ever at this point. But I wanted to switch it up and go through some of my PC backlog so I started up Far Cry 5.
The beginning was decent...but it became very apparent quickly that the entire model of the game was very, well, familiar. In that it's almost identical in gameplay design to AC Odyssey. Add to that the almost distracting number of bugs in the game - constantly have civilians that I can't liberate for no reason, and if you use a game controller the reverse and decelerate buttons for driving vehicles straight up aren't even mapped - and my opinion is that this is a subpar experience. I haven't extensively looked up other people's reviews or experiences, but I was curious to know if anyone felt similarly.
In most HCOL areas there is a higher minimum wage even for tipped workers, so keep that in mind. In DC for example minimum wage for tipped workers is going up annually over the next 4 years to meet regular minimum wage, up to about $17/hr. I anticipate tipping percentages should go down as this phases in as there will no longer be a differentiation.
You pretty much abandoned this immediately I guess
I used an email address that would tell me where the spam is coming from to sign up for Lemmy. None of my spam email is coming with that email address so I don't think I'm getting spam from Lemmy sold emails.. I have noticed more phishing emails but I think it's just Gmail letting them through or being more targeted.
New resources are being added to the sidebar
I've been adding good resources as I find them, but if anybody has any other suggestions for what they'd like to see up there let me know!
How many additional calories does each pound of muscle burn?

Hopefully there will be a Lemmy equivalent to r/fuckcars and r/YIMBY soon enough.
the 500 comment limit made the concept of daily threads replacing common questions a killer on subs like r/fitness. "Has this question been asked before? Well, instead of being able to pull up several threads about this topic, I have to go through the daily threads of hundreds of days and search the comments for keywords - after increasing the number of comments visible from 200 to 500, and then still not being able to search all the comments on the 1000+ comment threads." Just genuinely became unusable.
