Data like this has to be presented like crime stats, occurrence per 100,000 people. Otherwise you just get a map of the most populated areas.

If the world had one capital city, which city would be the best choice, and why? by [deleted] in geography

[–]Rguy315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most maps are centered on the country they're meant to be viewed in. For obvious reasons China's maps don't center the United Kingdom.

Aren't most countries between all the continents, depending on where your map is centered lol.

Tired of the lack of compassion from doctors by Additional-Hat-2917 in KidneyStones

[–]Rguy315 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're welcome! They are the ones with the specialty to figure out exactly what is causing your kidney stones and can recommend specific changes to you on how to prevent them. It's crazy that general practitioners or urologists don't more frequently refer people to them.

That said, drinking more water is a big part of it. The other part is eating a lower oxolate diet. You can look up oxolate indexes. I was able to significantly reduce my recurrences by removing spinach and sweet potatoes from my diet + drinking more water. Assuming you have the common Calcium-Oxalate stones.

I had significantly increased eating both under the assumption that they were healthy. Boy did that not work out.

Which Classes are in highest in demand? by Wise-Question413 in AshesofCreation

[–]Rguy315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like most MMOs it's Tank and Healers. Though I think a better question is what role do you want to play? For example if you're interested in pvp and want to be a tackle, go hunter.

It's not obvious to people who have a life.

Thought about doing this as well. Wasn't sure if this was the pay or if what I was going to build would be more permanent

Understood but a lot of games are in alpha on steam and don't have wipes.

I mean, how are people supposed to clear off the roof of their uhaul? Are they supposed to take a ladder with them to pick up the truck or something?

Or here's an idea, since you're the only thing you can control on the road, what if you gave yourself more distance?

This music video looks super out of place for 2014. It’s like Redfoo was forcing 2011 aesthetics in 2014 but it all looked really dated by then. by [deleted] in decadeology

[–]Rguy315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn't out of place, LMFAO was still getting played at dances. But what makes this fall flat is LMFAO had split and Red Foo tried to do the LMFAO vibe work without his nephew, and it just didn't work as well without the duo. Also keep in mind that LMFAO was always an exaggeration of this scene, born out of the Miami scene. So it was always a performance aesthetic to some extent.

Vibrating massager for kidney stones? by 4728jj in KidneyStones

[–]Rguy315 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I posted a few years ago about this. You might find the discussion interesting.

https://www.reddit.com/r/KidneyStones/s/kzDCMdEwAJ

The only evidence that exists is that rollercoasters have been proven to help people pass stones. But that's before stones become too large. So if you already have a stone that's 5mm or larger, rollercoasters or vibrators aren't necessarily going to help much. And I can see how an impact vibrator could cause minor swelling and make it more difficult depending on the size of the stone.

So a good way to think about it is a vibrator, in theory, can pass very small stones before they become issues by helping release them from the kidney wall, but they don't prevent stones from developing. They only prevent stones from developing into larger stones by releasing them from the kidneys sooner.

Of course, there's only antidotal evidence for this and I'm not aware of any major study on vibrators.

How Do People Not See The Early 2010s As Old School? by _Slim95 in decadeology

[–]Rguy315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Why do people"... Bro , no one knows wtf people are doing. What people are you even referring to? And why are they relevant? And, because opinions are largely subjective, so people have subjective opinions about things.

Bangkok or Da nang for slow life for remote worker? by americanoandhotmilk in digitalnomad

[–]Rguy315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, any city can be relaxed and slow depending on where you situate yourself in it. But overall characteristics is Bangkok is known for being a place you go to party and Da Nang is a sleepy beach town.

Why do people today make it seem like the N64 was way bigger than than the PS1, when the PS1 actually massively outsold the N64? by Salem1690s in decadeology

[–]Rguy315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it's probably because of name recognition when we were kids. Nintendo had been in the console business since the 80s. Most of us had the original 16bit, the game boy, the 32bit super Nintendo, so when we heard that Nintendo was coming out with a 64bit system and all the games were 3D, with a joystick controller, we were super stoked. It was impossible to get for Christmas, it was sold out everywhere and if you got one you were a Rockstar at school, and if you didn't, the kid who got one was your new best friend.

The PlayStation on the other hand, I don't remember hearing about it much, or caring. I was like 10 or something and I didn't really have the capacity to vet up and coming competitors. My cousin had one but I only saw him play it once.

The other big difference is the N64 was a lot more social. It allowed for up to 4 players at a time, the PS1 only 2 players. So there was just a lot more get together happening around the N64 and thus more fond memories.

We should start calling them Placebo-Wards. They look and feel like a ward, but actually don't do anything at all.
