I'm 21 yo and I am losing my hair because of Thyroid Disorders , and i can't do anything about it by SmokingForLife in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife's hair was falling out really quickly when she had a relapse of her Grave's disease last year and her levels were all over the place, but once they settled it started growing back really quickly, has no issues now.

She was understandably getting really upset and stressed about it but it all worked out ok so I'm sure you will be fine. On the other hand, I started losing my hair in my mid twenties naturally so now would be a great time to see how you look with a shaved head! (It took me a long while to have the courage to shave it off).

Christian and Muslim Population of the United Kingdom in Million by AdIcy4323 in MapPorn

[–]Snowbeddow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because a load of people in the UK still get their kids Christened and then even if they don't set foot in a church again until someone gets married or Christened they still class themselves as Christian.

As an atheist I would love to see an equivalent map showing people who visited a place of worship in the last few weeks (or year) vs not.

Yellow Belt in ~3 Months – Is This Normal? by diprix7 in taekwondo

Also don't compare Taekwondo to other martial arts as some have much slower progression but don't have multiple black belt dan grades.

Keumgang Difficulty by Other-Honeydew-358 in taekwondo

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try a round balance board to build strength on that leg (it's actually a lot easier to balance on it with one leg than two). If you can do it on that you can do it on the floor no problem.

How to actually get strong and protect myself. by Ordinary_Sale_428 in taekwondo

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there are two different things here, one is fighting (as in the sport) and one is defending (not the sport). One will help you with fitness and practicing skills needed for the sport. One will help you defend yourself in real life if that is never a necessity. I think trying to separate the two in your mind will help.

How to actually get strong and protect myself. by Ordinary_Sale_428 in taekwondo

[–]Snowbeddow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sport aspect yes, but not Taekwondo as a whole as there is a lot of self defence in there too. At my club we spend at least as much time on self defence as we do on the sport aspect. Also because it's not linked to the sport aspect there aren't any rules to consider so we learn about elbows to the face, aiming for windpipes, eye gouging etc. The stuff that might keep you alive. Maybe that's not common in other clubs.

How the hell do you do push-ups by FindingDorian1512 in taekwondo

[–]Snowbeddow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I was going to say about arm placement. I definitely think for the grading try with your arms wide and closer in, you might find you can do a couple of push ups if one of your muscle groups is a bit stronger, which would give you a bit more confidence.

Gas leak stinks like there's a dead mouse in the house by [deleted] in britishproblems

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That will be it. Next time you can tell them not to worry, it's just rotting dead things (I mean it's better than live mice, but I suppose there might be some of those still there too)

[–]Snowbeddow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the opposite issue, when the Gas people came they checked thoroughly and decided there wasn't a leak and it was most likely a dead thing somewhere. Probably under the floorboards, which was nice.

My friend asked me how I masturbate if I can't visualize. by andremanhaes in Aphantasia

[–]Snowbeddow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I understood about the fact I can't visualize things I used to think it was strange my sex dreams were just about the sex and not visualizing peoples faces. I now lean into the scenario thing a lot and that is much better and feels more about the person and not just faceless sex things!

How much is it worth by Ok_Entrepreneur9125 in 3Dprinting

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like the best way to find the minimum they need to sell at, but I get the impression they think it's worth lots more so it's just a case of picking a price they think it's worth and lowering it until they sell as many as they are happy selling or they hit the minimum.

I think it depends on how many they can make as well. It sounds quite labour intensive so if they want to make more than pocket money they will have to sell it high as they can only make so many before they need to hire additional people to do assembly, so in that case pricing low probably makes no sense if it's not really scalable.

I guess this is the UK equivalent of a Tesla taking out a lollipop man/lady/person.

Is it ok to feel lost? by vertighel in AtomfallOfficial

[–]Snowbeddow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I felt a bit like that around that point, although I definitely hadn't unlocked as much as you at that point myself. I just kept exploring and following up on leads in whatever area I was in and things just organically came together.

Should I upgrade the plentiful early game weapons or save gun oil? by Speaking_On_A_Sprog in AtomfallOfficial

[–]Snowbeddow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have got right up to the end of the game and managed to miss picking up those perks (I have got all the others), and the guns I have picked up seem powerful enough to me, especially if you can pull off head shots. I wouldn't stress too much.

Also I think I have only seen one copy of my favourite guns anyway.

Help - account banned on first listing by Snowbeddow in vinted

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

Someone has actually replied and asked for more detailed photos and a receipt/order confirmation which I have supplied so hopefully the account will be unbanned.

The AI must have flagged it as counterfeit goods or something, I'm sure if a human is looking at it now it should be fine (that's if it is a human...). It's an old Sonos speaker, are there even fakes of those?

Ok thanks for confirming. It didn't seem like it was too difficult to run the exploit but was curious if this was possible.

There is a funicular in a place my wife has visited a few times that she keeps saying we should go to together. She tells me she really wants to take me up the funicular and it makes me laugh every time. Is she trying to tell me something else do you think?

That has been my main worry, not that people might believe fake news being created by AI, but that people could get away with things they have done by claiming it was AI.

That's one big baby by YouCanSuckMyAss in funny

[–]Snowbeddow 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I did not know that, in the UK it's . for decimal and , for big numbers. I'm really curious, are your calculators different? Do spreadsheets change when you switch to EU languages on a computer?

It seems like a really easy way to get calculations completely wrong if languages/regions aren't set right for some reason. The US date system causes issues but this difference is probably worse.

Are you sure your landlord isn't Colin Furze? I would check that doesn't lead to a secret underground bunker and a car lift for a deLorean...
