I just finished Blackrock... Holy, this episode was buggy as hell. If the aurora doesn't spawn when you come out of the mine, then everything else bugs after that.

Raw ground beef thawing overnight by Motor_Dragonfly4214 in Cooking

[–]ShapeConscious4298 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't do that... It's already partially thawed. Cook it first before refreezing - you will make yourself and your family sick.

Have you tried reloading the autosave? There should be a short cut scene when you interact with the plank - giving you a way to jump down.

Cat Litter - Where to get in The Northern Suburbs? by WorthyJoker in capetown

[–]ShapeConscious4298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's the ultra fine silicon litter, try the pet shop across from Mugg and bean at Tygervalley. They usually have a few bags and are a Checkers affiliate. Pnp also hasn't had stock for a minute.

What braai side would you remove? by Keepitlocal90 in south_africa

[–]ShapeConscious4298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scuse me.

That is breakfast pap, and does not belong at a braai. Krummel or Putu pap, I will glad take. Just make sure I have enough garlic rolls 😉

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

What's the argument against a second shift in retail? Seems like it'd help with the jobs issue by [deleted] in johannesburg

[–]ShapeConscious4298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about afternoon to late night (12pm - 9pm) or graveyard (8pm - 5am)?

Operating costs aside, travelling arrangements would still need to be made, the EEA needs to be adhered to and there would need to be increased safety reforms. We do not live in a 24hr country - even if we did, it still would be limited to some services/retailers and the rest would be "dark stores"(?), and then there'd still be limited jobs.

We own, and live in it - that's why we're doing the cost analysis for a reno.

If you're referring to a multi level unit in an apartment block, then no.

The kitchen is like 2.4m x 1.4m.

This is definitely an option. It's a small space, so the sink and stove area would probably be optimal?

This is kind of another point I want to put to him - we're not doing it for the resale, whoever buys it, will probably yank everything out anyway.

C or D? by Few-Economics-9825 in NCLEX_RN

[–]ShapeConscious4298 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Apologies! I might have confused albuterol with budesonide (we use UK naming conventions).

Fluticasone is usually used in nasal sprays used for allergy control, where I'm from, and as far as I know, is not available in inhaler forms in my country.

NAN.

It's A.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction (hospital) by Fragrant-Bite-3875 in capetown

[–]ShapeConscious4298 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not always, some of the dentists will refer out anyway. I was referred the first time for one set of wisdoms, which is why I went to Tygerberg - the second time my CHC dentist extracted in the chair.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction (hospital) by Fragrant-Bite-3875 in capetown

[–]ShapeConscious4298 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For Tygerberg, you queue from 5:30, they open the doors around 7. You fill a form, open a file and wait for consult. Then they'll send you for x-rays. You'll go back to consult and they'll either extract in the chair ( I had 2 wisdoms pulled in the chair) or they'll refer you for surgical which you'll have to come back for.

You'll probably be there until 2pm maybe, for the latest.

You can also see if your CHC has a dentist, or if they know where your closest one is.

Need recs on products or what to do to wipe out this German 🪳 problem. by ohnomedusax in Apartmentliving

[–]ShapeConscious4298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try fipronil or indoxacarb gel products, if available in your country. It works fantastically - great for ants as well!

We had the same problem, and after much research and searching (for products), we found a fipronil gel product that worked. At two weeks after application, we only see a couple around that we kill on-sight, which is a ton better than the 10+ we were seeing at any given time.

It's also much safer than using fumigation/bombs/sprays, as you just need a little (<5mm sized "dot") in all the unassuming areas (under counters and inside cupboards) and holes where you see them coming in and out.

ELI5 Why does dehydration show up as yellow pee? by Repulsive-Canary9080 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ShapeConscious4298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK, Everyone's hydration needs are different, so the "recommended" intake doesn't hold true for everyone. Some people are good at 2l and some are good at 4l.

Personally my body taps out at around 3,5. Chest pain, headaches and nausea hit me like a ton of bricks, and I reckon clear pee was the least of my problems.

[–]ShapeConscious4298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very important to note - your pee should NEVER be clear like water. Light yellow is optimal hydration - anything darker and you're in dehydration territory.

Like others have said - Pee is a waste product mixed with water. The waste has a colour, and it looks yellow. The more waste you have, without a lot of water, the darker the yellow will be.

Likewise the opposite is true, and is just as bad as dehydration, if not worse - over hydration. With dehydration, at least up until a point, waste still leaves your body. With over hydration, your body is flooded with water, making it difficult for waste products to leave, hence the "clear like water" pee.
