In a new study published in The British Journal of Sports Medicine, researchers found that while doing either aerobic exercise or strength training was associated with a lower risk of dying during the study’s time frame, regularly doing both — one to three hours a week of aerobic exercise and one to two weekly strength training sessions — was associated with an even lower mortality risk.

davep,

Note that the main goal of strength training for the "Masters Athlete" is improved mobility, strength and balance through older age, and compression of the inevitable uselessness to a small window at the end of life.

It's worth subscribing to Dr Jonathan Sullivan's "Greysteel" channel and buying his book, "The Barbell Prescription"

Somewhere, there is a person on this instance who used their work email address who must have recently left the company and turned on every email notification mastodon has to offer.

Soooo… many…. Email bounce backs

@simonzerafa It looks like this user changed the default settings from what @jerry said.

In Sweden we'll use the euphemism “flowers and bees” for explaining how sex and/or procreation works. And it makes sense, right? Pollination and all that.

But in English it's apparently “the birds and the bees” instead and… exactly what did the birds do to the bees!?

Did they eat them and get stung? Is there honey involved? Do the bees like it? They die if they use their stinger, right? Does it result in bee eggs and bird larvae?

Not to judge, but maybe you could consider waiting until the kids are older before going into these more elaborate kinks?

what's the most fucked up mishearing of lyrics that you've had that you only found out were wrong wayyyyy later?

for me, in "Dirty Deeds" by AC/DC I thought they were saying "Dirty deeds, 𝘿𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙚𝙛" and I just assumed "Dunderchief" was some Australian 70's slang I didn't know

it was when I sang along to it in the car with Mrs. Smiths that I not only learned it was actually "𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘵 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘱", but also that Mrs Smiths could somehow laugh hysterically and show total disappointment simultaneously

davep,

@quasirealsmiths
Dunderchief is my new go-to insult.

davep,

@quasirealsmiths
In fact Dirty Deeds Dunderchief is the perfect description for useless crime bosses like Trump.

I found Leffe Blonde 0.0 wasn't too shabby.

I'm going mad. Is there a simple solution to creating a small e-commerce website? With you're paying for multiple premium plugins and it's just bonkers. It's like being caught in a web.

Haven't looked at or really. Ideas?

Edit: it's the multilingual stuff that is making it a headache.

#e-commerce

davep,

@aloppnow
It's not cheap at $36/month for the basic option either (which I think is the first tier to allow multiple languages). But it looks better integrated for stocks than the WordPress WooCommerce additional plugins.

davep,

@Extelec WooCommerce needs another plugin, for example...

It's not very joined up for a small e-commerce website.

davep,

@Extelec oops, thanks. Updated.

It's the biggest pain. I've got WordPress, Elementor and Woo installed on a Raspberry Pi but it's going to get messy with the multilingual stuff.

davep,

@aloppnow Thanks. I think the basic multilingual stuff is included (3 languages?) at that tier, which would cover most of the market. And it's integrated, unlike the WordPress mess.

davep,

@Extelec It's just the way they implement multilingual stores. Yuck.

davep,

@aloppnow

Dayumn, you need the $299/month plan to sell abroad (or outside the EU, which specifically means England in our case)...

davep,

@Extelec with WooCommerce? 👀

davep,

@cyberia @Extelec
I saw there were stock sync issues with the likes of WPML etc across different languages. I'm not sure it'll be a huge problem as we won't be selling hundreds per day (and if we do, we could afford something more bespoke!).
