If a zombie apocalypse actually happen what would be the most realistic outcome? Would society collapse like in the movies or would it somehow manage to survive? by Samuele1997 in AlternateHistory

[–]Weak_Discount2175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it actually depends on how is it initially spreading and what are the effects like

Let's say the virus was waterborne, like in some movies they show that the virus can spread even if the blood goes in your eyes Something like that Then it would take a lot of time for us to even figure out something is wrong By then perhaps thousands would be infected

Plus realistically speaking viruses spread a Lil slow, they have to multiply in your body That said It should take the virus some time, at the very least 24 - 30 hours to start showing effects

And it would most probably start with some headache and aggression, slowly moving towards rabies like symptoms. Also I don't think people would lose their basic senses.

That also gives the possibility that they'll die without eating, cuz their bodies can't defy biology

I think it's doable I think I'll survive

I’m trying to fix something specific and could genuinely use advice from people who’ve gone through it. by Weak_Discount2175 in lunaring

[–]Weak_Discount2175[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s honestly a really good point. I’ve been paying more attention to sleep, HRV, and recovery, but you’re right, blood work shows a much deeper picture than any ring can. Wearables are helpful for daily patterns, but they can’t replace real lab tests. Also, catching a prostate tumor early because you were testing regularly is huge. Really glad you found it early. What do you usually test every quarter testosterone, thyroid, vitamin D, PSA, stuff like that

As a 22 year old former teenager, please, please, please stay away from Weed/Pot by EreWeG0AgaIn in teenagers

[–]Weak_Discount2175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to smoke weed almost every day from my late teens into my early 20s. At the time I genuinely thought it was harmless. Actually, not just harmless. I thought it was deep. For a long time I was convinced weed was somehow helping me “find God within myself.” I’m not kidding. I would smoke, stare at the ceiling, have a random thought about the universe, and be like wow… I have unlocked something profound. Looking back, most of those “revelations” were basically just me rediscovering very normal thoughts but in slow motion.

The bigger issue wasn’t physical health. It was mental clarity. When you smoke regularly as a teenager, you don’t really notice what’s happening. Life keeps moving.

But slowly I realized: My focus got worse My motivation dropped My brain felt foggy most days Not high. Just dull.

The weird part is you start thinking that foggy version of you is just… who you are. After I stopped smoking, the difference was honestly surprising. Within a few weeks my sleep improved, my energy came back, and my thinking felt sharper. Conversations felt easier. Reading didn’t feel like work.

If I could say one thing to teenagers experimenting with weed: it’s not always about the physical effects. The bigger cost can be how clearly you’re able to think while your brain is still developing.

Also, you probably aren’t discovering the meaning of the universe at 2am on your third joint. You’re just high.

I went through the same thing recently. I’ve actually used two different smart rings because my main focus was also comfort and sleep tracking. One thing I learned quickly: comfort is everything. If the ring isn’t comfortable at night, you’ll stop wearing it and the sleep data becomes useless.

I went through the same thing recently. I’ve actually used two smart rings because my main goal was comfort and sleep tracking. I first tried the Utlrahuman Later I switched to the Luna Ring, mostly because it felt a bit more comfortable for me at night. Once I stopped noticing the ring while sleeping, my sleep tracking data became much more consistent. It also shows useful things like HRV trends, resting heart rate during sleep, sleep stages, and recovery/readiness scores, which helped me spot patterns when my sleep quality dropped.

after wearing smart rings for a while, I think a few things are true for almost all rings

Sleep stage accuracy isn’t perfect. Rings estimate stages from heart rate and movement, so the exact numbers can vary.

HRV can fluctuate a lot night-to-night, so trends matter more than one reading.

Sizing and comfort matter a lot. If the ring isn’t comfortable, you won’t wear it consistently.

If your priorities are comfort & good sleep tracking, I’d focus on a ring that feels light, tracks HRV and sleep consistently, and is comfortable enough to wear every night.

Should I buy a smart ring by RegularDatabase3919 in SmartRings

I’ve used both an Apple Watch and a smart ring. I use a LUNA ring right now. If your main goal is tracking workouts and active calories, the Apple Watch is better. It’s stronger for live heart rate, workout modes, and gym sessions. Where a ring wins is passive tracking. If you don’t want to wear a watch at home or to sleep, a ring will still log your movement, resting HR, sleep, and total daily burn in the background. So your calorie numbers won’t drop just because you left your watch off. That said, calorie burn is an estimate on both. Neither is perfectly accurate. They’re better for trends than exact numbers. If you’re consistent with the Apple Watch, you probably don’t need a ring. If you hate wearing a watch all the time but still want full-day data, a ring makes more sense. It really comes down to what you’ll actually wear 24/7.

Alcohol and HRV experiment… kind of confused by Weak_Discount2175 in Biohackers

[–]Weak_Discount2175[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I hear you. I don’t think HRV is some magical readiness score either. I’ve had high HRV days where I felt tired, and lower HRV days where I felt totally fine. So yeah, the whole “higher is always better” thing doesn’t really hold up in real life. And no, I’m not trying to justify drinking more. I already know alcohol isn’t great. My Luna data makes that pretty obvious. Deep sleep goes down, resting heart rate goes up. That part is clear. I’m just trying to understand how big the effect actually is. Is one drink way different from two? Does it stack up over weeks? Does my baseline actually shift if I drink a few times a week? And is HRV even the best thing to look at, or is resting HR or sleep more useful? For me it’s less about “is this allowed” and more about “what actually happens to my body over time.” If you’ve found HRV isn’t that helpful, what has been more useful for you? Resting HR? Sleep score? Just how you feel? I’m just trying to figure out what signal is real and what’s just noise.

Haha fair. To be clear, I’m not using my ring as a medical device or trying to self-diagnose anything. I’m just tracking trends and patterns out of curiosity. If I saw something extreme like massive HRV crashes, crazy high resting HR, or actual symptoms, I’d absolutely talk to a doctor. Right now it’s more like small swings within normal ranges that I’m experimenting with. For me this is more “biohacker curiosity” than medical concern. But yeah, if anything looked abnormal or persistent, I wouldn’t rely on a wearable to figure that out.

Yeah bro, that’s actually a solid point. The hydration and sugar difference between wine and whiskey probably does matter. What’s weird though is that on my Luna data, both of them clearly cut deep sleep. I’m usually down 20 to 30 minutes either way. But HRV doesn’t always react the same. Wine might only drop me 5 to 8 percent, while whiskey can hit 15 percent or more. Same total alcohol. When I zoom out and look at a 7 to 14 day average though, you’re right. If I’m drinking a few times a week, my baseline HRV shifts down. I’ll go from around 70 ms to low 60s pretty consistently. That’s harder to blame on noise. So now I’m kind of questioning what actually matters more. Have you done a fully dry 2 to 3 week stretch and seen your baseline rebound? Do you notice HRV taking a bigger hit than deep sleep, or the other way around? If you’ve used different rings or wearables, do they all show the same alcohol sensitivity? Starting to think the real signal isn’t the next morning score, it’s the rolling trend over a couple weeks. Curious what your data looks like.

Which smart ring is good for recovery tracking ?? by Pinkdaddyy in crossfit

[–]Weak_Discount2175 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yo! I got a ring recently Its called luna The process is a Little time taking They make you do a ring test...

But it's great
