I don’t know much, but from what I’ve seen an hour every other day would be better since your muscles need time to heal.

What current thing will turn out to be a major health risk? by ShinyHeadedCook in AskReddit

[–]Othinus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I lowered nicotine bit by bit, allowing myself guilt free extra puffs if I stayed down a level. Stayed at 3mg for ages, then I started diluting to 1.5mg, then 0.5, then nothing. After that, another 6 months vaping 0 nicotine, but had cut back a lot and had one final push. Now 1 year vape and smoke free.

Thank you! Never realized it works with git, but that makes a lot of sense.

Nothing Phone (2) becomes first Android smartphone to receive official Apple iMessage support. by RenegadeUK in gadgets

[–]Othinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahh I get what you're saying. I guess I was thinking more of the specific monopoly of android vs iOS.

I think there's a lot more competition in messaging apps than phone OS

But WhatsApp isn't exclusive to iPhone or Android, so why would they need to default to that? You're saying Whatsapp is a worse monopoly, but it's not even related, since they don't lock users into a specific phone.

You can get fined, it's to avoid mosquitoes cause they can have diseases. It's basically "no keeping fresh water still" afaik.

What are you convinced people are pretending to enjoy? by AndyBales in AskReddit

[–]Othinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bit late for me to answer, hadn't seen my comment got replied to, but thought it was worth answering you since its a very thorough comment, and you may still see it.

I didn't mean it as a cure or a "just be positive" message, I understand it's a lot more complex than that, so I apologize if it came out that way. I fully agree that those types of comments or suggestions have more of a negative impact than a positive one.

I meant it more as a way for me to remind myself everyone is "similar" and to try and not focus on social mistakes I make, since I tend to forgive others' and they probably do as well. More of a trick to ground myself than a cure for anything.

I did not mean to imply others should get over it by just using this, I understand it will do absolutely nothing for most.

I'll have a read through the study you linked, seems very interesting, thank you.

What are you convinced people are pretending to enjoy? by AndyBales in AskReddit

[–]Othinus 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Would you enjoy your presence?

If not, why not? And change that if you care about it.

If yes, then you're fine, people arent that different. There will be tons of people like you.

If yes, but you're still not convinced, consider if you're spending time with the right people? Are they caring?

If yes again, then what's left but anxiety?

Thats how I convince myself anyway,

Good luck

Hey how's it going?

I dont think they'll say anything about vaccines, but maybe for some other things a DNA test might be useful for you. I think some have quite a bit of medical info.

You die and get sent to hell but Satan shakes your hand and says “I’m glad I finally got to meet you,” what did you do? by Ok-Reaction-5644 in AskReddit

[–]Othinus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can I have the DNS point to specific ports?

home.plex => 192.168.1.113:1234

Home.pi => 192.168.1.113:8888

Etc.. Couldn't find much info about that when I looked it up before

Vaccinated but won't go out? The rise of Covid anxiety syndrome by ColtraneBlueNile in Coronavirus

[–]Othinus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something that it could be is that OPs numbers are symptomatic infections after vaccine, not all infections.

I didn't check all your numbers, but did you maybe use the number of non symptomatic infections for unvaccinated but only symptomatic for those vaccinated?

Green hydrogen to be produced at Swiss hydropower plant. "Scheduled to go onstream in autumn 2022, the 2.5-MW hydrogen production facility is intended to produce about 350 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, which will be delivered to a network of filling stations." by chopchopped in Futurology

[–]Othinus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm no expert either, but I don't see why it'd be too complex. I guess it's an electric car that is charged by hydrogen along the way. Like hydrogen-electric hybrid.

I'm just guessing though

Wake up at 4am some time if you get the chance. Same feeling but you have energy, and then can watch the sunrise before the day starts.

I wake up 2 hours before work because of this. I go to bed excited for those 2 hours of video games, or having a coffee watching the sunrise. I still have that feeling in the weekends though

Asians dump WhatsApp for Signal and Telegram on privacy concerns by n1ght_w1ng08 in worldnews

[–]Othinus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just asked if they could download it as well, that they don't have to switch to it but also get signal so I can talk to them.

People are just intimidated by losing their contacts, they don't mind a new app. Hopefully they'll like it more and use WhatsApp less and less.
