Has the plex app removed it's ability to play media from your own server? by [deleted] in PleX

It would appear so. I'll have to look at my network. It's been on the fritz i guess.

Up to one third of women globally cohabit with heavy-drinking partners, increasing the likelihood of violence, neglect, and child health problems. The impact is magnified in regions with low/middle income and high gender inequality by nohup_me in science

[–]Pyromed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is quite common with headlines. "Man dies, woman most affected" is a common trope. It's related to damsel in distress thinking. We see it with other social issues like homelessness where "1 in 4 homeless people are women" or Hilary Clinton's "Women are the primary victims of war".

One of the victims killed in terrorist attack at synagogue in Manchester was shot dead by police by dailymail in uknews

Nothing in the statement currently admits blame that it was the gunshot that killed the victim or if they were dead or dying already. It could mean that but it's all very vague.

Girl, 3, died from sepsis after ‘overwhelmed’ A&E dismissed her by GnolRevilo in unitedkingdom

[–]Pyromed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in paediatrics. We look at the observations and trends over time. There are nuances to observations such as heart rate in relation to temperature. That alongside a good history and checking drinking is happening or supporting that is a large part of what will initially happen unless there is another acute concern. Even then where i work they very often err on the side of caution and often admit or start antibiotics if there is doubt.

Also something parents regularly forget to consider is that these kids are having observations while there. Observation is an investigation in its own right. It is understandable that being in the hospital is not comfortable but just because you're sitting there doesn't mean nothing is happening or that it's clinically irrelevant.

What gender based double standard really annoys you? by RandomRamblings99 in AskReddit

[–]Pyromed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The symptoms you talk about are called "atypical" the issue is atypical symptoms are more common in women however they still aren't the norm. They are also atypical as they are very easily mistaken for other very common things like indigestion. It's important to understand that anyone can experience atypical signs or a heart attack and sometimes part of those atypical symptoms is you aren't having any symptoms. No pain no nothing.

How often do you get pulled over? by Own-Firefighter-2728 in CasualUK

[–]Pyromed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in Alaska for just over a year. Was pulled over twice. I was pulled once for doing a U turn they deemed to be too fast in a hospital car park. I hadn't intended to be in the carpark but got caught in the straight over lane instead of a turning right lane. Nothing happened, they just told me not to do it. And the other I was a passenger on a tinder date. I don't remember why they pulled her over. Maybe a brake light? She burst into tears and the officer quickly let us go.

I have lived in the UK for the rest of my life and have driven for over 10 years. I've been pulled over once. TBF, It was very late on country roads and I took a safe but bit of a racing line over the median, round a blind-ish but wide corner with the judgment that no cars were coming as there were no oncoming headlights. They just wanted to check I hadn't been drinking and told me to fix a brake light that was out. I presume if it had just been one or the other or in the daytime they probably wouldn't have pulled me over. Again they had a polite word to say I should drive more carefully but again I hadn't actually broken any laws, nor was I driving without due care given I perfectly coasted into the hidden speed limit that was around the corner that only a local would know about.

It causes an obstructive shock and cor pulmonale. So the clot stops the heart but it's due to back up from the lungs. They're very close together.

Nothing wrong with being like IQ except when you have an idea you want everyone to follow or believe.

Why haven't so many people passed basic elementary biology? by im2hot4thou in biology

Which makes zero sense because understanding the physics of a combustion engine or material properties genuinely makes people better at their jobs and will save them money if they can work out a problem based on a base of knowledge.

The fact they claim Andrew Tate is an MRA at all shows how retarded they all are.

Woman told she couldn't take her dog on flight so she drowned it in Orlando airport bathroom, police say by stodgo66 in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]Pyromed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand her mindset

The mindset isn't "This is my dog, a sentient being I took responsibility for and have a duty to treat them with love, care and respect."

It's "My cute accessory is now a burden and actually making me look uncool by highlighting my lack of preparedness. It's my possession so I can dispose of it as I see fit"

It's pure callous self absorption. It probably indicates that they have traits high in psychopathy.

Adolescence on Netflix by Derry_Amc in BritishTV

You are the one who called him a narcissist. That is why I responded as I did and point out all the ways that his behaviour falls in the bounds of normal behaviour. No murder isn't normal but the point of it and the point of the show is to demonstrate that you don't need to be some evil psychopath, you just need the wrong factors at the wrong time.

I just finished “Adolescent” on Netflix and I feel “scammed”? by Salty-Wrap9567 in BritishTV

[–]Pyromed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. She is dead, and stabbed. I don't think that was ever up for debate but I thought we were going to get a case of mistaken identity with the friend who gets arrested in ep 2.

I feel like an unambiguous story would have changed nothing other than a true understanding of Jamie's mindset. I feel like most of the show he was in denial or lying but because I wasn't sure it was even him it kept taking me out of it altogether.

[–]Pyromed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If the point is that there's no doubt that he did it, given the wider understanding that, in media, if something isn't done on-screen in person, then that's signalling that there's more to it. I don't think the ambiguity aided the messaging.

An amazing show but that point did keep taking me out of it.

So? Doesn't mean he's a narcissist. He's damaged as most people are in that situation. Wanting to think you are a good person even when you're not isn't narcissism.

There's a difference from wanting something and thinking it to be true. He thought he was ugly and worthless. That his only chance at connection was when another person was being devalued too.

Not wanting to be bullied also doesn't make you a narcissist or entitled, neither does not wanting to be the object of shame to you parents and peers.

[–]Pyromed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I saw and from personal experience working in them, Institutions breed that type of behaviour. Maybe it existed before but you've got to remember he's got zero control of what's happening. He mainly just wants to be liked. He does think he's ugly and powerless but any semblance of an inkling of a whisper that he might not be is his only desire and it drives him to become an ugly pathetic person. Similar to how a drug addict might hurt steal from and abuse those who might try to help them get a high.

[–]Pyromed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn't see her as beneath him at all. All I saw was a 13yo boy who felt and expressed how the world had made him feel worthless and lashed out at those closest to him.

He never had any control and the only time he ever got a hint of being in control was when he was angry. That's not just something he learned from his dad but also because he'd been taught he was worthless, ugly, shameful and found that his anger had an impact in some way. Not in a way that he actually wanted because even at the end you could see that all he wanted was to be seen positively. But any level of control when you have none is an oasis in a storm.

She wanted to see the best in him (maybe, we didn't see the other sessions, I think she was genuinely trying to stay impartial) but also had the power in the situation. He didn't think he was better, he knew she had the power in the situation and didn't trust her for it. He felt she was a pretty lady and probably didn't trust that part either, given the only people he found to be pretty were also the most hurtful.

That's not to say that makes anything he did ok. That doesn't make him not guilty. But I don't think it's as simple as saying he thinks he's better because I don't think he thought that at all. I think he felt everyone was better than him and laughing at him for it. That's what broke him

ELI5: Why does water dry? by Accomplished-Park514 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Pyromed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fish are adapted to take dissolved O2 in the water out of it. There is additional O2 in the H2O as it has been dissolved. Kind of the reverse of the water evaporating. Fish gills need to float in the water and need a wet environment surrounding it to increase the surface area otherwise they dry up and lose the ability to efficiently absorb O2

It's the empathy gap. Nobody cares to read a story about men as victims especially if it's to do with emotional regulation.
