VLC is awesome. Rcently started getting frequent updates too.

MPV is another nice one. Tried it out recently. The user script option seems very cool: SkipSilence, SkipChapters etc.

VLC for vids and audio I want to watch normally and MPV for ones where I want SkipSilence(Got used to that feature thanks to Newpipe and Pipepipe)

Thank you.
All the best to you, in achieving your goal.

Landmine obliques (don't know the name)

Is it this exercise:

I've tried to follow their recommended routine, but never really stuck to it.
I think looking at learning the proper technique together with doubting whether it was working made me inconsistent. Also was afraid of hurting myself doing dips. Still am.

Maybe when I build up some base strength, I will be able to try it better.

With dumbbells, I started with simple bicep and tricep exercises. I could see decent improvements and added other stuff slowly.

I've started doing some pike-pushup-kind-of exercise.

Thank you, for the recommendation and for reminding me of it.

Thanks a lot. Especially noting the effort in typing out the detailed answer.

Thank you.

My aim is decent health itself. I do wanna get stronger and get a more flat-ish tummy, since I've read something about hip to waist ratio. My main focus is to have decent strength n muscle.

 

Started doing simple dumbbell exercises recently and was curious about what others are doing.
Been trying simple neck exercises too. No weights, just chintucks and isometrics.

Please do share your experience/suggestions/opinions on the it and related topics like sports, calisthenics, general physical health etc.

Do you know any exercises that are rare? Or ones that seem special to your locality?

Regarding food:
How do you meet your protein or calorie goals? How do you track it? Especially food that is local to your place.

On a tangent:
Are there cool plants that are less known or that'd be useful if more people tried growing and including them in their diets? Do mention your locality or climate of the plant.

Only the living have a problem with anything tho

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Thank you.
But not exactly that

Something likt TIL, but instead of news, things that people learnt to do. Like how to cook a dish faster. Or a very useful keyboard shortcut or app in a popular app/OS.

Sort of like rCoolGuides, but better?

I don't have enough knowledge on the subject to suggest a solution.
But asking a question along a tangent since you mentioned heat:

Which colour does your van and its roof/interior have?
If its a darker colour, maybe trying a lighter colour would help reduce the heat gain?

I do get things done. But sometimes I think that I could have started some things early, avoid rush. Also a sort-of negative perfectionism that does the opposite, where I end up delaying the start while thinking about the best time to start and how to avoid possible trouble etc.

How do you categorise and adjust accordingly about such stuff?
If you are someone who got out of or reduced such behaviour(or helped someone to do that), what were the things that you/they did? How did you/they start out and progress etc.

Thanks in advance

Recently got banned in a community when I brought it up, when they talked about the latter.

I'm Indian, didn't really have to read too much(on such treaties and other stuff. We do learn about the dates, major groups involved and our own people) about WW1 and WW2 before getting on the internet forums.
But how is it in Western countries?

Also, is the Bengal famine of 1943 taught?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_famine_of_1943
I only got the gravity of the situation after reading about it and seeing pictures on the net.

Are there any other events that should be more known by others, in your opinion?

I hope this is not too political. If it is, do forgive me, I'll delete this.

Edit:
Recently read about the Travancore famine of 1943, that killed around 90,000 people. It happened in my state, Kerala. But I never really knew about it.

Apps that I know:

  • For images - Pocketpaint, Freepaint
    Fossify Gallery has a basic editor with draw, crop and filters. Tux paint is also nice to draw stuff.
  • For video
    • Video transcoder allows basic cutting of audio n video.
    • Saw an app called Bunny media editor, that allowed basic image and video cropping and cutting.
    • I've also heard that some people use Termux for it

Are there other apps like these?
Which all apps do you use to edit images/videos and make memes etc?

 

One that use the camera to give an approximate distance between two objects?

Tape measure has some features, but needs a known reference object in the same plane. And most of the predefined objects are not common where I live. It does have an option to define custom reference objects.

But are there any apps that do not need a reference object?

Thanks in advance.

  • I have recently started using RSS feeds to get news and other information. It is quite time-saving.
  • Recently found out that word could open pdfs for edits. Used to upload pdfs to websites to get it converted into some editable format. I think Libreoffice can do the same.
  • Got that spinning type of mop and mopping has become a bit easier.
