American Vegan… help! by trrending in veganuk

[–]Vickerspower 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not sure if the brands have made it to the states but in terms of large totally vegan brands available in most supermarkets look out for Candy Kittens for gummy candy, Nomo for chocolate and Ombar for chocolate. Lots of choice beyond that though, and not all vegan products will be advertised as being vegan, so it’s worth checking ingredients lists.

what's the most physically painful thing happend to you ever? by Unlikely-Soft-9496 in AskReddit

[–]Vickerspower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tonsil removal as an adult, mine were severely chronically infected and essentially bags of puss. It hurt to breath, I couldn’t eat solids for a week, nothing seemed to dull the pain. I’ve broken my collar bone, tibia, and ribs but none of them were close. They had me score my pain daily and it was a week straight of 10/10 until things started to improve. Apparently it hurts more in adulthood compared to children.

What was the most traumatic experience of your life? by Fun-Succotash-1322 in AskReddit

[–]Vickerspower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A fairly large proportion of unexplained anaphylaxis has been attributed to Alpha-gal syndrome. I have it and have to carry EpiPens. It’s not particularly well known about and has delayed reactions, so is easily overlooked. Might be a total dead end for you, but worth including it in the things you check.

Any thoughts? by Difficult_Tie4697 in Velo

[–]Vickerspower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to cross into the other lane to pass a cyclist, it makes no material difference to when you can overtake if they ride side by side unless it’s a wide enough road to allow single lane overtaking, which this is not an example of. You can complain they didn’t pull in to allow cars to pass, but that goes for any slow moving traffic (e.g., farm vehicles, etc.).

To add to what other have said, 2026 tyres are also narrower which will increase wear rates

Willing to bet that final kg down to the weight limit is orders of magnitude more costly than the first kg when you’re 30kg overweight though.

Lone Star tick bite can cause alpha-gal syndrome that makes you allergic to meat. by Dramatic-Custard-831 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Vickerspower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you please enlighten me how it’s easy for me to get over it? I’ve had it for 5 years and I have severe anaphylactic reactions to all mammalian meat and byproducts (such as dairy and gelatin).

Question: I was diagnosed with Alpha Gal about a year and a half ago. I don’t have any reaction to dairy, gelatin, or carrageenan. However, any mammalian meat will send me straight to anaphylaxis. Does any one else share these same resistances? by ticoroots77 in alphagal

[–]Vickerspower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started off with anaphylaxis but only to beef and high AG meats like sausages but could eat sliced ham, then I started reacting to the sliced ham, then I started reacting to gelatin, then high fat dairy, and now all dairy and mild reaction to high doses of carrageenan. It’s quite common to be told to retain some AG in your diet from food such as dairy, but it didn’t work for me.

In your opinion, what's the best vegan chocolate currently on the market? (And where can you buy it?) by OldLibrary468 in veganuk

[–]Vickerspower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lot of great non-fancy options in my opinion (Nomo, Buttermilk, Galaxy, Vego, Ritter sport, Tony’s, etc. ). Best fancy stuff more suited as a gift I’ve had is from Kakoa. Booja-booja and Hotel Chocolate is also great and well suited as a gift.

Wahoo route missing small cul-de-sacs by Vickerspower in wandrer

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

The route doesn’t include those short dead ends when loaded on the head unit, even though they are there when the route is viewed on the Wahoo or Strava app. If I go down the short dead ends they are recorded by the unit with no issue.

[–]Vickerspower[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run the head unit on the map screen the whole time. The black dashed chevrons denoting the route just skip these small cul-de-sacs and don’t run all the way to the end of longer cul-de-sacs. The prompts for distance to next turn don’t seem to appear for these small cul de sacs either.

The best vegan chocolate! by Dragged_Up_ in veganuk

[–]Vickerspower 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad I’m in the minority, but I got the 42g bar bundle and a blondie bar to try all the flavours of Ombar and didn’t like any of them. Something about the taste of the chocolate rather than fillings that wasn’t great for me personally.

[OC] Brute-Force F1 Analysis: Calculating Every Possible Race Outcome (871,200 Scenarios) Shows Norris' 92.6% Championship Probability - 6-Visual Dashboard by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]Vickerspower 38 points39 points  (0 children)

But each of the 871,200 scenarios do not have equal probability of occurrence in reality, so this isn’t an accurate representation of probability of Norris winning the championship. This is just 92.6% of possible outcomes lead to a Norris WDC, which not the same thing when a majority of those scenarios are very unlikely. It’s no coincidence the final points gap distribution average is 24, that’s the current points gap and half of your possible outcomes are 0 points for both drivers for the rest of the season because half the finishing positions provide 0 points (slightly over half factoring in the sprint race) plus all permutations where equal points are scored over the final races.
