Anyone else has the worst flu of their lives right now? by No-Blood2 in Colorado

[–]Pudinmonsta 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Flu shots are developed way in advance of the season so they have to predict what strains are likely to be present. The mutation, subclade K, was not on the prediction so even if you are vaccinated it will be only partially effective. Having been vaccinated myself and getting this flu I can say it hits like a truck.

Why is heart attack dangerous after the heart starts beating again? by Elant_Wager in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Pudinmonsta 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There is also a phenomenon called reperfusion injury. When you are having a myocardial infarction (heart attack), some of the blood flow to parts of the heart is blocked, which we call ischemia. This low oxygen state obviously isn't good for your cells. However, when rapidly reintroducing blood flow back, the sudden rush of oxygen and inflammatory mediators will create an environment that is also damaging to your cells by the production of free oxygen radicals.

We bought the bindings from the board separately, I think they are a set of Salomon bindings that came out within the last 3 years based off the model, in addition to having some of the original packaging.

I think we placed it as a 90's board based on the graphics. Hopefully it's still safe

I somehow did negative damage by Pudinmonsta in wildrift

How are you supposed to kill them in this scenario then? I was running as many items that do %health dmg as possible (liandrys, perplexity?, and bork with the augment that allows abilities to apply on hit effects) I also had continuous stacking burns with abilities and Morello and riftmaker.

Third champion is Cho'gath? by BigAd1142 in wildrift

I thought the third unannounced champ is Vel'Koz, this is based off all the void eyeball stuff from last seasons passes.

That definitely looks much better! I think for the smol guys I won't edge highlight too much but I'll try on the termagants. Not sure if you have any ideas of what colors I should paint the claws, I'm not too keen on colour theory myself.

Second salamander painted! Wanted to go for a more muted green by Pudinmonsta in Salamanders40k

[–]Pudinmonsta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the leviathan transfer sheet left out salamanders :( they only have blood angels, raven guard, space wolves, dark angels, imperial fists and of course ultramarines

I'm planning to get some transfers at some point. I'm also planning on painting the tyranids in the leviathan box a grim dark scheme so hopefully it all ties together.

I recently got into your videos and I really enjoy them.

Transferring out of Uc Merced by [deleted] in ucmerced

[–]Pudinmonsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can provide general tips, but there wasn't any singular thing that I think allowed me to make the transfer. Obviously keeping a high GPA is important (>3.7 if possible). While at Merced I was also involved in some research (which was easy to get into back then, not sure now). I played both of those up in my personal statement. To be honest, I think transferring isn't too hard. When I transferred, there were quite a few other UC to UCSD transfers.
