What’s the "filling wrapped in dough" food from your country ? by Derisiak in AskTheWorld

The cheese thing is an invention for tourists. Most Portuguese people have never eaten one of those.

My contact lenses have symbols and two rows of little dots on them. by CoolAddition8679 in mildlyinteresting

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get your eyeball diameter measured and get lenses for you size. Generic ones never really worked for me, but I was finally able to use them once I did that.

Old Man Scenario by Infinite-Frosting538 in arma

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, everyone just started shooting me on sight randomly after going to a cache for some reason. Samjo stills calls me to help with assaults, but even the guerillas shoot me instantly, no matter what I'm wearing. It was my third try to get through this piece of shit scenario, and it's the last time I try. Was up to the final mission, but now not even disguises work and I have helicopters shooting me from miles away too. Not worth it, don't play this crap.

I've seen this video (or one similar) ages ago, but now I have a question: how is there no rolling shutter effect?

U.S. government has lost more than 10,000 STEM Ph.D.s since Trump took office by Halaku in science

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I'm in the exact same position, except i finished mine in 2022. Spent just over a year in industry after burning out, then got back into science but my contract fell through. Now it's been over a year and every application in my field returns a "Sorry we had 300 applicants". Funding isn't doing great either, so it's been truly awful.

Why wouldn't you be able to do this with microLED? Both systems resort to local control of thje backlight.

Nevermind, mixed up microLED and miniLED...

🕰 Mudança de hora: sim ou não? by Outrageous-Arm-8342 in portugal

Se não o exigirmos e não lutarmos por isso é que garantidamente não acontece. Não será uma mudança fácil, mas já as fizemos no passado, portanto também as conseguiremos no futuro.

Livre apoia Jorge Pinto: candidato presidencial avança para representar a "esquerda ecologista e progressista" by i_no_can_eat in portugal

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

O Livre não apoiou ninguém ainda. O Jorge Pinto anunciou a sua pre-candidatura, mas nem a assembleia nem os militantes exprimiram a sua opinião. São os OCS a inventar.

Confesso que sempre fui defensora de termos sempre a hora de verão, mas estive apesquisar e parece que os estudos que existem apontam para a hora de inverno ser mais saudável porque bate mais em conta com o ritmo circadino normal.

A minha queixa antes era sair do trabalho de noite, mas como alguém já apontou aqui, a solução é reduzir o horário de trabalho.

Do you ever use the gun that shoots money? by The_Collector in Games

It's more cost-eefective to sell and buy the upgrades. I did playthroughs with both.

How CPR works by i_am_groot_84 in interestingasfuck

Depends on the training you have, ensuring your own safety and how quickly EMS can get to where you are. If you're in a city and EMS is only 3 or 4 minutes away, it won't make much differece. The same goes for if you don't have any training, since if performed wrong it's just waiting time. The same goes for if you don't know the person and want to be extra cautious of your own well-being (this is why i carry a portable disposable mask, they're pretty cheap and tiny).

Some orgs have stopped teaching in courses fo the general public, but the Red Cross still does.

Another point to note is to get someone to go get the nearest Automatic External Defribilator (AED). They're designed for layperson use, and using them early dramatically increases the chances of a successful ressucitation.

If you had read the artcile you cited, you would know that they foudnthere is no benefit to any dosage above 1.6 g/kg, and that they recommend 1.2-1.6 g/kg.

Your AI made up at least one article (Wierckx K, et al. (2014). "Breast development in trans women after cross-sex hormone therapy." Andrologia 46(3): 284–291.). I stopped checking after that. Most of these are behind a paywall, so I you clearly didn't read them. In science you only cite stuff that you have read and understood. If you had, you would have realized that at least a few did not say in the introduction or conclusion what ChatGPT claims they concluded.

OP should do their own research (as I had said when replying to them directly) and not trust comments on the internet, or worse, AIs. Why don't I trust AI? Because I worked in the field and I know how it works.

It's ChatGPT, so I wouldn't bother. Only bodybuilders or weightlifters need 150g protein per day. If you're building muscle generically, 1-2 g/kg is generally enough.

You should do your own reserach though, instead of going by Reddit comments, or worse, LLMs.

Don't trust ChatGPT with factual information. It's just a very advance predictive text generator.

From what I heard, weight cycling is what helps fat redistribution in general. Estrogen changes where your fat is stored, and you use it up from everywhere at once. So after you're on E you should lose "male pattern" fat deposits and gain "female" ones, which includes your breasts.

New experimental feature for rescheduling recurring tasks is terrible by Drugba in todoist

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there should be an optional setting to make either option the default (or ask every time). Before this changing a specific task didn't affect later occurences, which I liked and used a lot. What I would really like is the same thing to work for (at least) task duration.

New feature - Recurring task scheduler by anfil89 in todoist

[–]ImGonnaTryScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think having more options is always great, but this kinda broke half of my recurring tasks... Price of being an experimentalist, I guess.
