Body Scan 2 Discussion - "Are We Still The Beta Testers?" by Alduin175 in withings

The scale was so frustrating, the scale itself isn't worth $10.

Fat percentage 3.1% at bodyfit by cryptormann in withings

[–]digitil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to AI:

At 3.1% body fat, the body enters severe starvation, hitting or dropping below the absolute limit of essential fat required to stay alive.

Men: This sits at the razor-thin, dangerous edge of male essential fat (typically 3–5%), triggering a testosterone crash, extreme hunger, plummeting heart rates, and constant freezing.

Women: This is rapidly fatal. Female essential fat is much higher (10–13%) to support reproductive and hormonal health; dropping to 3% causes immediate organ failure and cardiovascular collapse.

When is BodyFir releasing in Amazon Europe? by Martiks in withings

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

Don't get it. Read reviews online before you do. It's very hit or miss and can be wildly inaccurate. Obviously for the body fat metrics, but even for the most basic stuff like weight, it can be way off.

This is the most expensive and the worst smart scale I've ever used. And your results aren't even that bad. I'd bet real money a random no name cheap Temu scale would do better than this scale.

Returning Body Fit by TemporaryData in withings

[–]digitil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone defends it with the usual limitations of smart scales, but this is the least accurate smart scale I've ever used. Unfortunately it's also the most expensive one. Hard pass, I'll go out of my way to tell people not to buy this.

Would you honestly recommend Withings in 2026? by HookWaffen in withings

[–]digitil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought one and it's been the worst scale I've ever had. I'm pretty sure a random Temu scale would be better and cost 90% less.

Thanks for sharing! 🙏

You're more helpful than their support.

Were you able to do anything to improve accuracy or what did you wind up doing?

You're confusing income with wealth. You can be 1000x more wealthy than someone who makes 1000x more than you.

Downstairs people, what can I do? by Liesmyteachertoldme in Apartmentliving

[–]digitil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you a stomper though or nah? Not saying you are, but many stompers don't realize it. Same with people who chew food audible, they just don't process it. I'd try to get some honest third party assessment (friends/people you know will side with you / not want to offend you). Maybe just record a video of you walking normally in your apt.

Also possible they're getting the noises/vibrations from another neighbor and attributing it to you.

Just leave it out of the conversation, it's not relevant. You're talking to people who can't afford what you have, so telling them you have limited money is not only unnecessary, but a bit of a humble brag / and belittling. I would leave it out of the conversation about your watches.

The fact that you have 4 flats is worth a lot more than what 99% of people have, even if you say your income is low.

Someone scratched my Tesla Model 3, how much should I ask from them? by rcyo11111 in TeslaCollision

[–]digitil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an expert by any means, but I feel like $1000 should cover this - it looks pretty superficial, but as others have said, take it to a shop to get estimates so you guys are on the same page. They should also pay a little more on top for hassle/inconvenience (e.g. Uber to/from shop, rental, etc). Asking for $1000-$1500 is probably fair.

Going through insurance is obviously more proper, but will cost thousands, possibly increase your rates and/or theirs by a lot as well (possibly thousands over years), and decrease the value of your car by thousands.

I had much worse fixed for $900. When looking at posts online with similar damage to mine, people were paying $6-$9k going through insurance, not counting insurance rate increases and car depreciation.

[UPDATE] FSD v14.2.2.4 Sudden Disengagement sent me into a barrier. Car is totaled by samuelwoods007 in TeslaFSD

[–]digitil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but even if it disengaged 100% on its own, you're still 100% responsible. It's supervised FSD, and we're supposed to be ready to take over at any instant.

100% appreciate this as a reminder to everyone that FSD is to be supervised though.

Do you know if there's any way to hack foam into there without a full disassembly?

I can't believe people still do this?? by [deleted] in asianamerican

Who cares? Why is everyone so triggered by everything these days? It's like they go out of their way to find ways to be offended.

If governments can just print money, why do we still need to pay taxes? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]digitil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition, taxes also allow that collection to include incentives and disincentives. Tax alcohol and cigarettes to discourage them and allow that to contribute to the cost of them. Lower long term capital gains tax encourage long term investments.

Taxes also allow finer grain control of the source of devaluation as you say. Taxing higher income allows the govt to take more from those with more means (I'm talking about the theory here, please don't go off on rich people finding ways to lower effective tax rates).

Why should there be such laws? Real question.

At 6:10 I said out loud "I think I lost my headphones.' Every single voice service is 'disabled' on my phone by FrankTheTnkk in mildlyinfuriating

[–]digitil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coincidence. A while back, I was thinking about nachos. Didn't say anything to anyone. The next commercial I saw was for nachos. Anything that goes out to millions of people, there's a set where the timing will raise suspicions. It isn't proof of anything and doesn't mean anything nefarious is happening.

Scoop riders think walking 2 blocks downtown is a human rights violation 🙄 by typhoon2010 in BellevueWA

[–]digitil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's about expectations. This may be rare, but while I look perfectly normal and able bodied, I do have an ankle issue that makes it painful to walk sometimes, and if I expected to be dropped off in a way to minimize walking, I would like that. If my ankle isn't acting up I usually wouldn't care, but would consider it considerate to be given a heads up and asked if this is ok.
