A note about battery life, Bobovr makes a great strap that has modular batteries. I don’t think they’ve made a full kit for the q3 that has multiple batteries and a separate charging dock for the batteries like they did for the q2, though… Happy to be corrected on this! Either way, they greatly extend playing time.

The strap itself is really comfortable and the battery helps counterbalance the weight of the quest itself. I know one of the q3 versions has a fan built in and the design lets you lie on your back and just watch movies.

Edit: seems they sell the s3 batteries separately and the charging dock now, nice. Wish it came in a whole kit.

There’s a small country town in Victoria where a fairly geriatric man wears one, and sits in front of one of the higher traffic areas on the main street. I gather he’s hoping someone will either fall for the bait and be that person yelling at an old man, or will assume the lack of interaction means people agree with him.

Some of the ranches are big enough they do have helicopters. It’s not impossible.

If we aren’t, we’ll wish we were…

I was thinking of this dude: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Barbieri's_fast

What a cracker of a question!

Short answer, yes.

Long answer, what sorts of side effects happen as a result of said medication? I don’t think there’s a single medication or even supplement out there that doesn’t have some sort of side effect (e.g., ibuprofen can cause gut bleeding, iron supplements can lead to constipation, grapefruit can screw with all sorts of medications), so balancing the cost benefit ratio is important.

The problem comes is the suggestion of travelling to destination X (in your case, the Bahamas) doesn’t just pop up out of thin air - friends may have travelled there recently, perhaps there has been a recent advertising push, etc.

Another family member looking up some destinations to travel, then speaking with you later - same external IP of the home wifi being reported, bam you get advertised the destinations they looked at the most.

Choosing a “random” topic again also doesn’t come out of thin air.

Last I heard 2035 was already going to be pretty crap, 2050 was unlivable.

As other comments have said, deal with the origin of the pain first, THEN…

If it’s bad enough to take meds but not too bad, then one 500mg paracetamol and 200mg ibuprofen (my go to for pain). The paracetamol will generally be one with some caffeine in it.

If it’s a BAD headache, then 900mg aspirin.

I do have a headache hat which is kept in the fridge.

That is literally how you are supposed to play Dixit.

A lot of companies have tried to dodge their liability responsibilities by claiming it was an unrelated third party that is responsible.

The consumer still has a contractual relationship with the vendor, not the upstream provider.

The vendor is the one who should ensure their supply chain is safe, and can’t demand a stupidly low price that gives no room for safe practices.

Megan MacKenzie, the more junior author (at the time a senior lecturer), received calls threatening her with consequences for her career.

Why only mention the more junior author? Did the senior authors not get targeted? Did they receive different threats? There’s definitely an implication here and I’d rather not assume… :/

And how “funny” - when “outed” (and were they?) for being biased, the reaction was to be an absolute turd? Ugh.

Bit harder to breed emus than pigs.

Don’t get into stranger’s cars, and don’t give out your real name or number or address on the internet.

Now you do most of these things when you call an uber. 😅

Not just that but I’ve seen posts mocking the captain for being a lesbian, and wokeness for why the boat crashed.

For anyone worried about this, you can ask for a bite block.

Antibiotics and other prescription medications are more often prescribed to older folks, so the increase should be seen in those populations, not primarily more in younger populations. It is unlikely that antibiotics or other similar medical interventions are responsible for the phenomenon seen in the op article.

Also, as a prescriber, I do warn my patients of the dangers of taking antibiotics willy nilly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Get a proper sleep study, see an ENT and sleep physician, if you are overweight lose some, sleep on your side.

Snoring is produced by soft tissues vibrating when they flop where they shouldn’t (i.e., blocking airway).

It is thus indicative of reduced airflow, which can result in negative health outcomes - including yes, brain damage. The full condition is called obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), but there are other conditions like upper airway resistive syndrome.

From the pictures I see online, it looks like an over the counter mandibular advancement splint (MAS). MAS are used for management of OSA, but only per the prescription of a sleep physician, who needs the results from a sleep study as well as an examination of the patient.

Not all OSA sufferers will tolerate let alone benefit from a MAS. There are drawbacks and side effects with a MAS that may not be discussed with all patients, let alone purchasers of an OTC product.

I have a custom fitted one, and even as someone in the industry, I find there are certainly limitations to it.

Bicycles stand out too much in Australia. If it’s unique and cool, people will fuck with it. Furthermore, it’s far easier to physically pick up a bike and chuck it in the back of a van than a car, and not very many people are going to interrupt a thief using bolt cutters, particularly if they’re wearing hi-vis.

So you’re left with needing angle grinder resistant locks, with none of the portable ones being long enough to fasten around the body and any fixed stand so you have to get creative about where you park, and even then somebody might just unbolt the fixed point. Creative means it might be away from other bikes and or cameras, reducing security.

Then there’s no clearly visible registration so even if you report a lost bike, nobody will easily be able to tell if the one being ridden by is yours or someone else’s…

Eliminate theft and you’re still left with vandals, and there are a LOT of destructive people with plenty of time on their hands…
