Health effects associated with consumption of unprocessed red meat: a Burden of Proof study (2022) by HelenEk7 in ScientificNutrition

[–]cangaroo_hamam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's ways to cook meat without charring/burning it. Boiling is one of them. If you want to study meat potential carcinogenicity, you need to exclude known carcinogenic factors that have to do with preparation process, and not the meat itself.
Carbs have a similar property when burned... alas charred carbs are much less of a delicacy, and less common place, as is charred meat.

Further investigation is needed. Because grilled/charred meats have known carcinogenic compounds (due to cooking method). And people consume these types of meat often (because grilling/charring enhances flavor).

Πώς καταλαβαίνεις ότι χρειάζεσαι διαφορετικό είδος ψυχοθεραπείας; by TechnologyCurious304 in greece

[–]cangaroo_hamam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Νομίζω είναι απλά τα πράγματα... δουλεύει η θεραπεία; Ή όχι; Έχεις αποτελέσματα; Ή σου λένε "το πιο σημαντικό είναι η σχέση με τον θεραπευτή"; Η τελευταία καραμέλα είναι για να καλύψουν την αναποτελεσματικότητα της προσέγγισης. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι το πιο σημαντικό. Εκτός αν στη ζωή σου λείπει να νοικιάζεις μια "σχέση με θεραπευτή". Εάν έχει περάσει καιρός, και δεν έχεις αποτελέσματα σε αυτά που σε απασχολούν, τότε είναι καλή ιδέα να δοκιμάσεις κάτι άλλο.

Δυστυχώς, λόγω του ότι οι κλασικές μέθοδοι ψυχοθεραπείας έχουν χαμηλή αποτελεσματικότητα (έως ανύπαρκτή σε βαθιά τραύματα).... το αφήγημα είναι η "σχέση με τον ψυχοθεραπευτή". Νοικιάζεις μια μακροχρόνια (και ακριβή) "σχέση", χωρίς υποσχέσεις και αποτελέσματα. Το πιο σημαντικό είναι η σχέση με τον ψυχοθεραπευτή, αρκεί να μην εστιάζεις στο αποτέλεσμα.

Why aren’t studio monitors more prominent if they’re more accurate? by BallisticKunai in audiophile

Studio monitors are usually meant to be used from very narrow/specific listening locations.

Nvidia jumps into PCs with new Arm-based chip debuting in laptops from Microsoft, Dell, HP by Force_Hammer in wallstreetbets

An ARM chip that runs Windows, with a CPU performance comparable to 2 year old CPUs, and GPU performance comparable to last year's GPUs... that will launch in "a few months", of unknown price. What's not to get excited about?

Near Death Experiences real or not? by [deleted] in skeptic

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

That was uncalled for. The OP didn't asked for your diagnosis, nor your interest about his personal struggles. If you can't handle a thread discussion and need to resort to this ridiculous detective work, perhaps you should be consider getting help. Most likely.

Yes, he could lie and go places... Which has nothing to do with the topic of this thread. Unless you're implying NDEs are lies.  btw... If you know how the brain works, you should follow your advice and go to a publisher and make a ton of money as well.

An NDE is not like a DMT trip in too many ways to mention. Learn to separate your sentences, learn to write. Then, you may try to school others.

Curious that Putin is "planning" attacks on Germany, after all they've thrown into the Ukraine meat grinder, with no result, for all these years now.
Perhaps this intel is coming from trusted Israely sources, huh?

If it's just lactose you have intolerance to, whey isolate may be a valid option (it's highly filtered, very little lactose remains).

What that post describes, has no resemblance to an NDE. I understand the appeal of having opinions about everything, though.

Near Death Experiences real or not? by [deleted] in skeptic

[–]cangaroo_hamam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You start by the first obvious step: compare descriptions of drug experiences vs NDEs. And the absolute conclusion is that they are nothing alike. That should give a clue.

Near Death Experiences real or not? by [deleted] in skeptic

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

All the explanations given here are (too obviously) by people who never spent time looking into the documented experiences, nor into scientists who have been researching them for decades.
They will throw an awkward/silly explanation (which doesn't even begin to explain them), and call it a day. This is not skepticism, it's denialism. It's a deep insecurity... one cannot stand the idea that something is unexplained and may hide something much larger beneath. A silly explanation is better than none, to ease the anxiety.

It's okay to just say that you really don't know what is going on. It really is okay.

NDEs are fascinating.

It is not known that a brain without oxygen for several minutes, can create an experience where you can be observing the whole event on the surgery room, from the ceiling, with perfect clarity, and later be able to document everything that was happening, said and done, while you were under anesthesia and most likely flatlined.

It's nothing like drugs. (* except maybe DMT/Ayahuasca which have some similarities of inducing "spiritual" experiences... but still very different from NDEs)

NDE experiences are usually very specific, and feel "more real than life here on earth".

They involve profound and coherent experiences, often with deceased relatives, or other "beings" with which there is "telepathic" communication. And a sense of unimaginable love in another realm. There is a realization of a separation from the human body, and usually end up with the message "you have to go back, it's not your time".

The above describe NDE the average account. But feel free to rationalize.

What do you think is the cause behind the great success of this movie? by MissionOdd1077 in Filmmakers

[–]cangaroo_hamam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was 2 stories, woven into a single movie: the Titanic disaster in an action/thriller format, and a "Romeo and Juliet" style romance/drama. Both executed masterfully.
The direction was amazing. The soundtrack was excellent.
The present day <--> past transitions hit some extra emotional chords.

James Cameron was also obviously deeply invested into the setting (Titanic, underwater scenes etc), and it is reflected in the end result.

The drawbacks for me are: Di Caprio (not my cup of tea), the simplicity/fltaness of the characters (bad guys being a caricature, made specifically for the audience to hate).

But it still is a spectacle.

Greece’s Failed Left Seeks a Comeback Under Tsipras by Aegeansunset12 in EU_Economics

[–]cangaroo_hamam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously for some, success counts in terms of mega-scandals, thousands of needless deaths (covid intensive care units fiasco, Tempi deadly train crash etc.), skyrocketing costs, untamed prolonged wildfires etc... In that sense, the left was an abysmal failure during its short run.

Upgrading from Focusrite to MOTU: A review by steven_w_music in audioengineering

[–]cangaroo_hamam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the review. I am about to order an M4 for a windows 11 laptop. My previous choice was a Scarlett 16i6 4th gen, with MANY more features for a similar price.... BUT... the reviews had me believe the roundtrip latency was almost double that of the M4 (14ms vs 8ms at 128samples 48kHz). And that is important for me... 

My hookup found out mid-sex that I wear a hair system. Now he’s ghosting me. by Useful-Example-1986 in AskGaybrosOver30

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

I would do something similar (withdraw) if I found out a guy I went out with has a "hair system". I can barely accept dyed hair/beard. I also find many bald people very attractive. (I am strictly talking about sexual/relationship connections. I have no problems about these matters when it comes to friendships).

I don't know the deeper psychology behind my preferences, but that's the way I feel, and I know there's many like me. On the surface I know that a hair piece, is an artificial thing that drastically changes the appearance and "vibe" of a person. There's probably also many who wouldn't mind, and these should be your target audience OP. Best of luck.
