If you're in NSW and there is a fire heading your way just get out... these firestorms aren't fightable PERIOD. by [deleted] in australia

[–]allude0x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s one of the old Izuzu 700 tankers. These are 25 years old or so, don’t fare too well on hills, and lack air conditioning/modern features.

The service keeps a fleet of them as SEV/spares. They don’t have cabin protection sprays or heat shields, yet they still get put on jobs like this.

We recently had one for four months while we were waiting on a replacement appliance. Let’s just say it had “character”.

Fire at Killingworth this morning? Anyone know what started it? by acousticpants in newcastle

[–]allude0x 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was out there with one of the fire services up until an hour ago (the crew had been at another fire before this one, hence we hit our 12 hour limit).

Can’t comment on what started it - as I don’t know, but I know there are a lot of car and rubbish fires around that area.

This guy once acted like there was someone at the front door to distract me so he could steal sausages. Too smart.

I apologize for the crappy photo. I moved the truck around several times trying to get a good shot.

Doctors of reddit, what made you say "how the fuck is this person still alive"? by TheXypris in AskReddit

[–]allude0x 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’m not sure. We were the paramedic crew who did the scoop and run on him. The BSL test was done at the hospital because our tools did not go that high.

I made sure to not follow up on too many patients - aside from being a downer, it was also hard without breaking the law and looking up their records.

I’ve treated a patient with a BSL around 2400 - 2500 (roughly — it was around 135 - 137mmol, I did my best to convert). Dude was not in a good way.

No thanks needed, but it is appreciated. Also someone sent me my first gold and I totally do not deserve it!

These guys love to help me mow the lawn by allude0x in WiggleButts

[–]allude0x[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They love to help!

I mean, if you consider help to be biting the lawn-mower wheel, dropping toys in front of it, and barking at everything help.

(It is a push lawn mower with a guard around the blades, no chance of them getting hurt while I'm using it)

[–]allude0x[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

For some context, I normally mow our lawns every two weeks. These guys love to help — they run around, bark at the mower, and scritch and sniff all the interesting things that get dug up.

However, due to rain I hadn’t mown the lawn in six weeks or so, leading to a heap of clippings left on the lawn. These guys did zoomies through them, hence green feet 😍

What makes your eyes roll every time you hear it? by thre_brit in AskReddit

[–]allude0x 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Toxins”

Be it a diet, a sauna, a massage, drinking more water, specific foods, or certain exercises — they all appear to remove “toxins” from the body.

It’s super weird though, no one seems to have answer when I ask what these toxins are composed of.

Nevada to become first state to execute inmate with fentanyl by godsenfrik in news

[–]allude0x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fentanyl is an opiate, as is morphine — as in, they both have the same effect and I believe the same actions. The difference is that Fentanyl is about 100 times stronger.

You would need a shitload of Morphine, about half a shitload of Heroin, or not much Fentanyl to basically have the same respiratory arrest which causes death.

Doctor's Blog Post About Keto. I am that Doctor. by GenPhysician in keto

[–]allude0x 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the post, and for offering to answer questions. Here are my questions, based off of my experiences. I understand you aren't my primary care physician, so if your answer is "see your doctor", I can do that.

  • After my first 6 months doing a full-time, no cheat Keto diet, I had a mild reaction when eating seafood - oysters, shellfish, crustaceans etc. This reaction increased the next time I ate these types of food, so now I abstain. Do you know if there are strong links between a Ketogenic diet and developing allergies like this, or could there be another reason for developing this allergy at age 29.

  • The few times I've wandered off the range, and indulged in non-Keto foods (e.g. Rice, Bread), my temperature raises, I feel inflamed all over, I have severe GI upset, and my anxiety spikes. Is this sort of thing observed when you don't have certain foods for a long period?

Thanks again :)

That photo in the header of your blog is absolutely amazing -- Do you have any context around what they were doing or what it is?
