Mostly. Natural gas is approximately 80% methane, with some other hydrocarbons thrown into the mix.

It's hard for most people to eat and drink under 1500 calories a day. Are you saying you're having issues getting up to 1500 calories a day?

Eggs are the cheapest and most perfect protein you can get. Just eat loads of those (around 80 calories an egg) and do some spinach or kale and bell peppers as well. That will cover your veggies and your protein. Then you can fill the rest out with a bit of rice or oatmeal. All of that listed is pretty super cheap.

To your other quaestion- no, you do not need to eat an extra 500 calories if you burn an extra 500 if weight loss is your goal. Eating too little calories (like less than 1200, depending on sex and height) makes your body try to keep your fat and will start removing your muscle in order to make your body have less upkeep. That's really bad. However, if your body knows it's getting more calories than that, and that your having to use a lot of your muscles (burning 500 extra calories per day) it will burn off the fat reserves and try to maintain the muscle you keep using.

Here's where they're legal, and exactly how legal they are in the US

Many of the "legal" states aren't all that legal, really.

For anyone interested, here's a comparison. They really don't sound the same at all.

Easy to solve.

Buy one of those electric hand warmers and wedge it between the two thermostats.

Robinhood went public at around $38 a share, climbed its first couple weeks to over $55, then dropped like a rock to like $8 a share. Also look into Beyond Meats.

A lot of big name recognition companies have this happen to them during bull markets. There's an initial run up, followed by a massive over correction and things don't stabilize for at least 6 months after the drop off. As well as reddit is known, it's going to be a hard rug pull.

It unfathomably amazes me that someone intelligent and dedicated enough to get a nursing license was so stupid they didn't know to use something sterilized to replace it with. Drugged up Addict or not.

Liquid screen protectors are useless snake oil, and doubly so when you're putting a real screen protector over the top of them.

Fairfone isn't compatible with most US carriers.

Samsung and some other providers/custom roms as well have a settings option to stop charging at 85%. This will vastly extend how long your battery will last before going bad.

Disable fast charging options. If your phone doesn't have the option, use a charge block that only outputs 5v 2amp. This will also make your battery last longer.

When replacing batteries, 99% of aftermarket batteries are absolute garbage. Either get an OEM replacement (most on ebay are counterfeit) or just know you'll have to replace it often.

I keep my phones for usually 3 to 5 years at a time and in 25 years have never had a power button go bad on me. I also have a lot of equipment to fix laptops, cell phones, etc so I get a lot of people I know bring me their phones when they break, and out of dozens of phones brought to me, I've never had to repair a power button. It's all speakers and charge ports and screen stuff. A volume button once.

Speaking of charge ports: Keep them clean and don't use your phone while they're plugged in. Or at least be mindful to not stress the connection while it's plugged in.

Never leave your phone in a hot car or the sun shining on it through a window. This hurts the battery and causes the adhesive holding down the cable from the main board to the screen to de-laminate. That's what has often happened when a screen has a solid thin line of color going all the way down the screen (looking at you, samsung).

Use the accubattery apk(android) to keep an eye on your battery health and spot apks that are draining your battery the most.

Cross your fingers and hope you can still find a good phone with an SD card slot.

Know someone like me who will fix your phone for you. I do it for people I know just for the funsies. It's a nice hobby.
