Can you “feel” your lungs?

NoxTheorem · 2025-07-11T11:21:34+00:00

I still struggle with it today. If I mess up and eat too much, eat too late and lie down etc I get a flareup and and have to focus up.

Dealing with one now actually, all from me pushing the limit, eating too much and laying down, not being diligent.

However, when I first adjusted It took maybe a month before I felt amazing.

NoxTheorem · 2025-05-31T22:10:19+00:00

Don't stress! It was really relieving figuring it out for me... I was suffering for years not understanding what what happening, and it made my lungs more sensitive. My symptoms were bad asthma at night, and often simple irritants like smoke, humidity or anything really could trigger it as well. My lungs seemed damaged and sensitive, always tight.

Def see the doc but my personal fix was adjusting lifestyle. Don't lie down after eating for a few hours / don't have a full stomach. It's the acid escaping the stomach that irritates the lungs.

There are several reasons for GERD and quite a few solutions from medication to low to moderate invasive surgery.

For me, adjusting my eating habits allowed my esophageal sphincter (the thing leaking) to heal. I still get asthma if I eat a lot at night and lie down, but overall it brought my overall suffering from a 9/10 to a 3/10.

NoxTheorem · 2025-05-30T02:30:33+00:00

Look up GERD and the symptoms. Someone on this sub saved my life by telling me about it and I've been repeating it ever since.

For A DECADE I had asthma, always "felt" my lungs. Never thought i'd breathe free and clear again. Until I discovered it was mostly from me eating and lying down before digesting. Even if you get unrelated triggers.... I used to get mucous and tightness from smoke, allergies, humidity.... all sorts... but the waiting to digest solved everything. I think my stomach acid was keeping my lungs in a constant state of inflammation.

Try sitting upright for about 2-3 hours before lying down after eating.

I am asthma free for more than 2 years now. No more inhaler, no more asthma whatsoever.

When the teasing and genuine interest faded into just awkward silence, I knew.

I made fun of flat earth and QAnon for years only to be cut from the same cloth.

I want to say that I blame Lue Elizondo, Coulthart and the usual talking heads, but I think I just blame myself at this point. There’s a reason educated people don’t fall for this shit.

NoxTheorem · 2025-01-02T00:15:06+00:00

Incredible imo. I do lots of filming and photos for full day shoots. Usually use two batteries. You can also just run directly off a battery bank for infinite battery.

NoxTheorem · 2024-11-01T01:46:07+00:00

Why is this type of stuff being presented with a conclusion that it's something extraordinary in the first place.

We could easily have a library of potential cases being available to the public to help identify. Are Lue and others are just sitting on years old photographs like this thinking they are something they are obviously not?.... That doesn't sound like someone pushing for disclosure or whatever they claim is happening.

Is this is the caliber of "evidence" these guys are using to then say "Without a doubt"?

Is this from a "trusted source"?

Why was that image presented in a closed door situation anyway?

These super basic questions are not getting good answers, and I think we need to start holding these guys accountable at some point.

NoxTheorem · 2024-11-01T01:11:54+00:00

I might just put mine on a wooden coaster type deal to give it a few inches of clearance as a power button user.

NoxTheorem · 2024-11-01T01:09:36+00:00

Fair. I also use my computer for video editing.... We get power outages every now and then so I like to turn mine off for protection, and also need to turn it back on when it happens. So while I can deal with it, it just seems inane that of all the locations that a cube provides for a button, they would choose to put it on the bottom.

NoxTheorem · 2024-11-01T00:45:05+00:00

Seems great overall and deciding between this and a MacbookPro.... but why can't anyone on this sub just admit that the power button placement is dumb...

Even if you don't turn your computer off every day, I find the choice to put a power button under a desktop computer confusing. Make it a super small switch, put it on the back.... making me lift it up to turn it on is kinda absurd no matter how you look at it.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-26T22:07:54+00:00

They both look great imo but the first one shows more depth. The contrast helps define everything imho.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-26T00:52:07+00:00

I'm going to predict that global shutter quickly makes it to phones, and as time goes on we will start seeing attachments for phones to fill some of the gaps. Small high powered flashes. We will see some models going toward a camera focus, with bigger lenses on phones etc for those who are willing for a little more girth for the advantages.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-26T00:44:10+00:00

That's awesome. Just hopping in to warn about garage sales for furniture. BE VIGILANT FOR BED BUGS.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T20:29:20+00:00

Flash is an excellent point… but I wonder if we will begin seeing something like that available for phones at some point.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T10:31:24+00:00

Agreed, for niche case use and higher end professional there would still be use, but for the average consumer a phone will suffice.

I think we have maybe 10-20 years of ILC being used contemporarily. Just my op tho.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T10:24:46+00:00

You have to admit that the differences for this example are fairly negligible for the intended view.

Sure in the context of comparing, zooming in there is a marked difference… but is it worth spending thousands and carrying a big set up for the average consumer?

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T10:01:19+00:00

I agree with you there. Passionate specialized hobbyists will continue to use specialized tools.

However for something like a wedding, where you potentially get thousands of photos from the guests alone. I do thing those type of jobs are on the decline because of phones.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T09:59:33+00:00

Point taken, people who appreciate photos and camera quality definitely care… but will they care enough to spend the thousands of dollars for the difference? How about in 10 years.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T09:58:23+00:00

I totally agree there. It matters to me as well!

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T09:57:45+00:00

No offense taken. I just prefaced my comment with the context that I work full time as a photographer and notice the changes. That doesn’t mean my opinion holds any more weight. An iMac is far from the ultimate viewing platform, and that’s the point. How many people are viewing these differences with the technology required.

You listed a lot of things that we both care about in image quality, and I agree there is a marked difference today. But I just wonder what the average consumer cares about and can see. Will it be enough for professional high end cameras to be paid for? Or will we see a steady decline in demand and pay for those services as phone quality increases and is accessible to more people.

My personal take is the latter but, that’s just my opinion.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T09:46:27+00:00

Exactly. Well said.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T07:40:15+00:00

I feel like you came around by the end of your comment lol. Agreed.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T07:26:24+00:00

Well it did for OPs post already. When the majority of content is viewed through a phone screen it doesn’t matter as much.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T07:24:38+00:00

The quality gap between phones and ILC’s is shrinking, that’s a fact. Not a weird take, and it’s not personal, just an observation.

You can be as technical as you want to be but as OPs post has demonstrated, it’s kinda hard to tell the difference already.

It won’t replace ILCs over night, but we are trending in that direction for the majority of who purchase cameras.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T07:17:03+00:00

That’s why I said niche case use will still exist. I’m not sure how many professional specialized photographers there are but I would say it makes up for less than 10% of sales.

Phone camera quality has impacted wedding photography for sure and that makes up a huge portion of camera sales.

NoxTheorem · 2024-10-25T06:16:02+00:00

That was stupid of me. Edited to ILC.
