Wow, this, if real is big.

------------ The effect of short-term (≤5 min) exposure to a pure tone of 80–85 dBZ (= 60.9–65.9 dBA) at 100 Hz on motion sickness was investigated in mice and humans. ------------- Very easy to producw, safe and not invasive. Just download a signal generator app on your phone and you could quickly test this.

Excited to see if it helps my partner.

Mine too.

I am not a big romance movie fan, but this is my favorite.

Characters you should hate but somehow want to succeed.

IMO one of Gary Oldmans best role.

I would say that A Straight Story is even more approachable.

If you didn't know it was by Lynch you would never suspect it.

They do do this, and they have for 20+ years.

They also call the trunk The boot.

This is a very cool idea, surprising how long it lasts and provides water.

You think punching someone in the face is ok, but changing there desktop background is going to far?

That does read weird

"15km long, or 9miles"

Would be much better

The mixing of 'length' and 'long' was odd.

I have taken quite the disadian for these scanners after the took advantage of my aunt.

Since then when I get calls I keep them on the line to stope them from at least scamming one other person.

I have had three on long enough to actually answer the question I ask

"Why would you scam a poor little old lady?"

All three answered the same:

"You people in the west are rich and don't deserve it."

Exactly my thought!

But why? There must be a reason to use something different than what is normal made.

It's not just conceivable, it is real.

This Is Your Brain on Music -by Daniel Levitin

--helped me understand why listening to music has such a varied and profound effect on me.

Hallucinations -by Oliver Sack

--piqued my interest in the brain and the notion that it is running the show behind the scenes and what we perceive to be reality is merely a construct of our neural activity.

I wonder how many cheating spouses with burner phones just got outed?
Personally,my homes heat and ac use us u changed whether or not I am home. There has been minimal savings (from my own small sample size) to reducing either while I am away, as when I would return the system would have to work longer to restore the desired temps.

So my situation it actually is a net benefit to work from home.

do most home wan IPs change often?

I have never had mine change in the 10years I have been self hosting, and that included 2 address changes (same town, same ISP).

Do you think in a culture that does not allow for divorce that people would be accurately reporting abuse?

And how does one "get out" when that is not an option?

I opened the article after I read you comment, and agree - something about that style is off-putting.
Nobody is being Forced into Euthanasia. I sincerely hope you and no one close to you ever has to consider this as an option, but if they did should they not have the dignity to choose?
Indeed it was.

Happy we are making progress with that and other degenerative diseases. I just wish we all had the opportunity to choose how our life ends, not just for our own suffering but also for those that suffer for us.

Care for a person dying of Al's and tell me how progressive our Euthanasia program is.

This has nothing to do with the article.

I am 1.5years in to a new role, on call for 1.4 years so far...

I still get calls about some service or application I have never heard of.

Technical debt is real and I lose a little bit of my life every on-call week.

Tying my shoes.

For almost 40 years my RT shoe lace would always come undone after walking for a few minutes.

Turns out I was making the same mistake on only my RT shoe, rather constantly.

Re:High-Earning Men Are Cutting Back on Their Working Hours on Saturday January 28, 2023 @12:36PM (#34559585)
I am feeling the same way. Finished last year with the exact same performance review scores as my coworker.. someone who admits to never checking emails, ignoring assigned bugs, and refusing to check the ticketing system.

After hearing this person bragging about 'being an asshole stops people from asking him to do work' and the getting the same raise I did has caused me to rethink my work methods.

It is difficult to change, but being a hard working people pleaser seems to be no longer valued.

That site has been up for almost 10 years.
active noise cancellation does not absorb (and therefore prevent transmision) of the sound, it instead just causes the sounds to be "not heard" at a small location.

I use them, purely as the are very convienant and have low annoyance for people around me (smell on myself, smell in the air, smoke, ect).

I have tried but nothing else comes close for consuming extracts When outside my house.

You need significantly more to obtain the same effects.

Some concentrates (distillate for example) are decarb’d in the process of extracting it.

The article is about how the cart itself is the potential issue, and none of the tests results take in to account real life - or potential (mis) use of the cart.
