I recently found out that as a part of my job I get access to a small gym in the building. I think it has your basic cardio equipment and some other stuff for building muscle (but small enough I don't think there is equipment to do stuff like dead-lifts or whatever in there).
I don't know anything about working out really, but I could stand to lose some fat, which draws my attention to the treadmill that they have. I am not so concerned about building muscle and everything that involves.
I have mostly neglected going to gyms for 3 reasons. - They are usually out of my way - I don't usually have the time - I don't want to spend what they charge
All three of these are now non-factors now that I have found out I have access to this one.
I would be using it twice a week as that is how often I am actually at the location.
So my question is, since it's not really something I have ever looked at - if I want to lose a bunch of fat, what do I do? I can try to diet first off, and I am glad to take suggestions on what worked for other people in that regard, but more so I just don't know how long or how fast I should run, what equipment is good for this otherwise, or really anything about using a gym.
Please note that the facility is self-serve and has no staff - they just have cleaners come in each day to clean it, the rest is up to you. I do not have the money to spend on something like a personal trainer, and the location doesn't offer such things as well given its self-serve nature.
Fat is energy. If you use more energy than you put in, you lose weight. If you use less energy, you gain weight.
Losing fat is like putting gasoline in your car. If you put in 2 gallons but you only drive for 1 gallon, then there will be gas left in the tank. Likewise your body will turn excess energy into fat. W hen you use more energy than you put in, your body will start burning fat.
If you want to lose fat hit the biggest muscle group which uses the most energy (your legs)

The deadly sniper attack on a Dallas ICE facility this morning seemed straightforward, with “ANTI-ICE” engraved on unspent shell casings recovered from the scene, per the FBI. But after interviewing several of the alleged shooter’s former friends, the picture isn’t so clear.
Within minutes of the shooting, FBI Director Kash Patel posted on X: “While the investigation is ongoing, an initial review of the evidence shows an idealogical [sic] motive behind this attack (see photo below).”
On the off-chance the shooting wasn’t what it looked like, I reached out to people who knew the gunman, 29-year-old Joshua Jahn. Three who knew him since at least middle school agreed to speak to me on the condition that I not name them, corroborating their friendship with photos and other records. Their accounts paint the picture of someone with a vaguely libertarian bent who despised both major parties and politicians generally (including Trump) but who didn’t engage with politics beyond that. He preferred edgy humor, video games and the message board 4chan, all of which he became increasingly steeped in as he withdrew from social life as well as their own friendships several years ago, they said.
None of his former friends believed that the “ANTI-ICE” inscription could possibly be sincere, feeling such a serious political statement was anathema to who Jahn was. His humor was deeply ironic, often offensive and aggressive to the point of alienation.
“He was most certainly an edgelord, an irony guy,” one friend said. (Edgelord is online-speak for someone who likes to espouse edgy, nihilistic views). Asked about the inscription on the bullet, the friend said: “Josh was an edgelord who wanted someone to get blamed. I think he tried his best to write something goofy … to rile people up.”
The media is so ill equipped to handle this seemingly new wave of terminally online domestic terrorists. No one can tell me the internet isn't real life when my 58 year old mom knows what a groyper or an edgelord is now.

Some of you have probably seen the blog post a few months ago about how GNOME is more strongly depending on systemd. The changes mentioned there have landed into the latest stable versions of the mentioned software (GNOME 49) and do affect us. In particular, the main culprit is the removal of the non-systemd fallback code in gnome-session. This makes it currently impossible to launch gnome-shell/mutter on a non-systemd system. A fairly straightforward patch of using elogind, like what was previously done, no longer works either.
Since we don't have the time or interest to write a new non-systemd codepath for gnome-session, this means that all support for gnome-based desktops has to be dropped. In particular, the affected packages would be gnome-session, gnome-shell, mutter, and gnome-settings-daemon. For now, the old versions are still in the repos but because there is so much intertwining between other gtk/gnome packages, there is no guarantee they actually work and will later be removed from our repos.
Standalone gnome applications will still continue to be packaged, but it is simply not feasible anymore to support gnome desktops without systemd.
Isn't that seatd though? I can run a wayland desktop session with only seatd, no (e)logind. While i can't do the same with only turnstile, still needs seatd.
My guess (i dont understand it all that well) is that people are less again using systemd, than against a growing dependency on systemd. If something bad happens to it, it could drag down other big elements of the linux ecosystem with itself.
It's a large and very complicated piece of software with a single implementation. It's practically impossible to fork, so users are forced to adopt whatever changes the maintainers decide to implement. This could include things like forced dependencies (incompatible with mulb libc for example), or other poor design choices (like binary logging, which is very controversial). And it forces its adoption in places that do not want it (as in cases like the one we're discussing here, where it's becoming harder and harder for Gnome to be used without it).
I'm not going to argue about whether systemd is good software or not. But the biggest problem with it is that it's basically a way for Red Hat to exert control over the entire Linux ecosystem.
Think of it like Chrome/Chromium. Everybody naïvely thought we were never be where we are today when it was announced, but look at where we are today. While it's technically open source and an excellent browser, above all, it's a tool for Google to exert its control over the WWW, such as disabling adblockers, implementing DRM, deciding which CSS/Javascript APIs should (or should not) be adopted, etc. systemd could very well be Red Hat's vehicle for imposing similar requirements on desktop Linux.
Funny thing is every open source developer strives to support as many systems and platforms as possible, by following best practices and open standards, GNOME goes backwards.
I am not knowledgeable enough to answer your question. But if it were an open standard, it would be more like Xorg than Wayland. There is only one X server implementation, just like there is only one systemd implementation.
Here Gnome is kinda like the websites which only work with Chromium based browsers. "Everybody is using Chrome anyways, right?" In a sense it's also not really systemd's or Chromium's fault, that some devs decided to only support their platform.
That isn't quite true. There have been several proprietary implementations for non-Linux systems—Apple's XQuartz was still being maintained as of a couple of years ago, although I don't know about its current status. Standards documents exist, and anyone can code to them.
No. It doesn't support BSD, just for starters, even though most of the established desktop environments originally ran there as well as on Linux. So by definition, anything that relies on systemd can't "support as many systems and platforms as possible". And to my knowledge, no actual standards document defining protocols and interfaces has ever been published (although I admit, as an OpenRC user, I don't pay much attention), meaning that the interface can change without warning. If systemd works for you, that's fine, but don't try to build it up into something it isn't.
Yeah but it could be an open standard, for Linux, could it not?
I don't really understand your first point though. That would be no problem if you organized the packages and declared conflicts for systemd against the other init systems.
Ever since gnome3, the project hasn't recovered from shitty designers making shitty design decisions.
Kinda funny how they gimped their desktop to make it easier for them to support devices other than PCs and over a decade later mobile Linux devices still suck donkey shit.
So they essentially gimped their desktop for no reason. Bunch of morons.
Dang, i knew this was gonna be problematic, but i thought it might've been fixable with an elogind type of approach. I don't use gnome myself, but it definitely sucks if you're someone who likes using gnome but doesn't want to use systemd. I'm a Void user myself, so i'm interested in seeing if the Void team ends up making the same decision as Artix.
My understanding is that it is fixable by just implementing a couple of APIs, but Artix barely has the resources to fix their own init system, so they aren't able to support such compatibility.
I expect that would be the problem. Gentoo very noticeably is still only offering up to 48 in the main repo—not sure whether that's just normal maintainer lag or someone's trying to patch it.
I feel like Void devs will first wait it out. Perhaps Chimera Linux' devs will come up with some workaround by then. A possible workaround could be to make Duncaen's systemd fork official. Though I'm not sure if maintaining 2 init systems would be less work than to patch the systemd API specific stuff.
Sounds like those people who like GNOME but dislike systemd have a choice to make. Most GNOME end users, like me, have no idea what the function of systemd actually is or why we should be concerned, and I've been using GNU-Linux for over 20 years. I'm glad there are people much more computer literate than me viewing it as a problem and searching for solutions.
They're all searching for "solutions" but nobody is creating them. Funny how most of the people complaining about systemd aren't actually system devs themselves and thus have no clue what they're talking about.
Nobody (not even GNOME) is actively wanting to force systemd and keep out alternatives, there just aren't any proper alternatives offering the same kind of functionality and quality.
"Some of you have probably seen the blog post a few months ago about how GNOME is more strongly depending on systemd."
"Standalone gnome applications will still continue to be packaged, but it is simply not feasible anymore to support gnome desktops without systemd."
What I always say when anyone tries to defend systemd but I just get shut down and talked down to because nobody wants to admit systemd lead person is on purpose influencing with flawed and unethical objectives/workflows that undermine actual openness and community efforts. He don't give af about the community.
This isn't a secret plot by systemd, this is gnome making dependency choices and a distro that explicitly doesn't support the new dependency being left in the cold. That's just how dependencies work.
If it were properly modular, systemd would be built from universal components, which could be used by other init systems. But it's the other way around. Meaning the universal components are created by taking them out of systemd. For example elogind is "extracted" from systemd to be a standalone daemon.
If you want GNOME you need a corporate aligned linux-only desktop with all the IBM trimmings? IBM who has been known forever for the poor quality of their code? IBM who pays by the KLOC?
On two versions of debian on two computers I have tried to use wayland and both times I have had really bad graphical problems and lag/stuttering of multiple visual elements. I'm sure it is fine when it works, but my problem with Wayland is that for whatever reason, it just does not work on my systems.
Each time, this was on fresh installs of the operating system as well, so I have no idea why it doesn't like me.
The current version of XLibre is 25.0.0.12 and it used by many of our users as a daily driver so quite stable. Technically, XLibre is still X11 and compatible to all X11 clients as laid out in Compatibility of XLibre · X11Libre/xserver Wiki. We will shortly be releasing version 25.1.0, which we aim to stabilize for general availability in version 25.1.3 at the latest.
#Guix will need this for GNOME 49, since the original GNOME session dropped the non-systemd implementation. Source code at gitlab.gnome.org/noe/gnome-ses…

Held for 72 days at a notorious Ohio jail, the legal about-turn marks a major blow to the Trump administration’s aggressive and often illegal deportation campaign that’s seen hundreds of thousands of people forced out of the US, often without due process.
Soliman’s ordeal began during a regular check-in with immigration officials in Cincinnati on 9 July, when the 51-year-old from Cairo was subjected to an hours-long interview before being detained by an Ice agent and a representative of the FBI.
Soliman was transported to the Butler county jail and held in freezing conditions for 12 hours in the jail’s waiting room, where he struggled to stay warm wearing just a t-shirt and pants.
“The beds were rusted, and the only toilet was in a room with 13 or 14 other people around. It was traumatizing and dehumanizing,” he recalls.
Things worsened when Soliman was put in isolation – a cell where he was separated from others and denied nearly all rights granted to other detainees – for five days. He says it followed an argument when Soliman’s request for a quiet space to pray was rejected by a correctional officer who then claimed Soliman failed to comply with a lockdown call, something the imam denies.
“There is a multi-purpose room where Christian pastors and Muslim imams come to administer to people, but the officer told me to pray at the gym where people were playing basketball,” he says.
“He grabbed my arms, I asked him to take his hands off me, then he pressed an emergency button and in seconds five or six officers rushed in and they handcuffed me.”
Correctional officers at Butler County Jail have been accused of abusing detainees in the past. In 2020, two men refugees detained by Ice at the jail filed a lawsuit against the jail and an officer, claiming that beatings resulted in serious physical abuse including the loss of teeth.

Apple has called for the European Commission to repeal a swathe of technology legislation, warning that unless it is amended the company could stop shipping some products and services to the 27-country bloc.
The Silicon Valley company hit out in a submission to the commission’s review of the three-year-old anti-monopoly legislation, which is intended to regulate the gatekeeper power of the largest digital companies including search engines, app providers and messaging services.
It said it had already delayed the launch of features such as live translation through AirPods and mirroring iPhone screens on to laptop because of the act’s demands for interoperability with non-Apple products and services.
“The DMA means the list of delayed features in the EU will probably get longer, and our EU users’ experience on Apple products will fall further behind,” it said. Apple added that Brussels was creating unfair competition as the rules were not applied to Samsung, the largest smartphone provider in the EU.
