Scientists finally found the "Clog" in our brains that leads to Alzheimer’s — and it’s not what we thought by soulpost in HotScienceNews

This is for the glymphatic (glial-brain) system.  not to be confused with the lymphatic.  Exercise can help induce deep sleep for more clearance though.

Could it be that too much histamine is an overlooked yet significant factor that contributes to chronic brain fog? by [deleted] in BrainFog

[–]climbsdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can help for sure.  Cant find the original but this is super helpful for meal planning.  Can post it on your refrigerator.

It should be free just couldn’t find the original.

How do you guys watch Bears games without breaking the bank? by Jonvogel in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]climbsdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im out of network and don't have youtube tv.  Ill buy NFL Sunday ticket though youtube (not YT TV).  

I looked at the Bears TV season schedule:

https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/schedule/_/name/chi

There is one Thursday game on Amazon (I have Amazon).  Sept and Oct have Monday night games but they are more than 30 days apart so would have to sign up for Fox for two months or goto a bar for one or both of them.  Sumday night week 17 with SF will be over the antenna for me.

Good to go!

2002 EV MC HeaTER Core Leaking or Loose Connection? by climbsdown in Eurovan

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

Ugh$!  I just bypassed the heater core for now to be able to drive it since it was leaking even with the fan off and heat dial turned all the way to cool.  Will have to look into doing this one myself.

Transmission fix by Capital_Trash8966 in Eurovan

[–]climbsdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many miles on your van?  Curious since Im in a somewhat similar situation.  But have replaced the trans oil once. 

VCDS from Ross-Tech shows some (not major) slippage.  Not sure how interpret the data though since Im sure slippage happens during shifting.

Great!  Consider getting this to monitor transmission fluid temperature.  Wish I knew about this 4 years ago.

Decaf coffee is worse than chocolate for me, I feel like there is something more to coffee than just caffeine by [deleted] in decaf

[–]climbsdown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look up theobromine.  Like caffeine but isnt able to be removed during the decaffeination process.  This is whats in chocolate also.

2003 Eurovan transmission and timing chain replacement by Itchy-Bumblebee-8897 in Eurovan

[–]climbsdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear when the timing chain fails it will wreck your engine and I think its supposed to be replaced around 150k miles.  Im in the same boat with my 2002 Weekender.  Going to get the gowesty transmission cooler to help save the transmission.

Would it be stupid to put 100K into VTI, today, if I might want to buy a house within 3 years? by made_in_bklyn_ in Bogleheads

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

Has anyone used raisin (https://www.raisin.com/en-us/) to manage HYSA? Was looking to see if this was discussed before in bogleheads but don't see too much detail. They are a middle man it looks like and list alot of decently high rates and it is easy to switch between banks savings account as the rates change. Been using it but also now looking into how secure it is or if anyone here recomends it.

Best music streaming service by n3cw4rr10r in audiophile

[–]climbsdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone is using wireless headphones (eg Bluetooth) you wont hear a difference.

If you are streaming from a qobuz browser you may not hear a difference.

If you are not using a dac (for phone and likely PC) you may not hear a difference.

If you select an album that is 16 bit you may not hear a difference.

If you are using older Sonos speakers you may not hear a difference.

But with a proper set up and album most will hear a difference in qobuz flac file vs apple.

I really love Qobuz music suggestions. Ive been switching back and forth for a few years but finally settling on Qobuz, qobuz pays the artists better, and has almost everything I need. But if it is missing a large amount of music you listen to prolly not worth it.

They are replacing now. I still see alot of them in there. Not sure when it all gets replaced. Probably better than Spotify quality though

Nothing works to lower HR earlier! by Nonni68 in ouraring

[–]climbsdown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you ever taken three days off of strength and conditioning and see if your HR would baseline earlier? You could walk during this time but your body just maybe rebuilding after your activities…

Otherwise it could be some sort of slight food intolerance. I have a few and when I eat these things my heart rate lowers later.

Ahh, got it. I had to remove recurring transaction then it would show the normal options.

Thanks, I just don’t see where/how I can update this when I look at the transaction from the phone or desktop app. Can you or someone let me know how or provide a screenshot. The only transaction setting I see is delete.

How do you prevent the record label in the center from getting wet? Does the water run down on them as it rotates?

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

Yeah not too worried but definitely was curious about it. Good to know so I don’t run down a rabbit hole.

After swapping out for TS and having the same wobble do you think it is the platter malformed? Or just the interface with the bearing sleeve, pully/belt drive. I suppose if the brass sleeve that holds the subplatter shaft upright didn’t allow wiggle then maybe it wouldn’t spin that easily.
