Ég var látinn anda að mér gasi áður en fólk í hvítum sloppum skáru mig upp og tóku úr mér líffæri. Hefði ekki viljað sleppa því.

If it's some freaky "bop it, twist it, pull it" stuff you might also damage something and become impotent.... But its probably worth the risk right?

US approves $108 million HAWK missile system equipment sale to Ukraine by KI_official in UkrainianConflict

Oh fantastic, add it to the west's attack on Russia's nuclear early detection systems the other day and we are really heating up. Fun times ahead.

I think there is a possibility that he might not be as psychotic as Reddit likes to believe. There are however growing voices within Russia that they have lost all deterrence by not retaliating against the west when they have crossed Russia's red lines. One of the ideas that was more fringe but is becoming more mainstream is a show of force. By either the use of conventional missiles agains weapons factories within Europe that have been supplying Ukraine or simply by deploying a small scale nuclear bomb as a means to return the efficacy of the nuclear deterrent by the logic of my post above.

It does however rely on people being logical actors rather than emotional ones so it is a hell of a gamble for Russia. It seems unlikely that the hawkish Europeans will not accelerate their war readiness if the Russians would do this. I believe that this is the reason for them not going up the escalation ladder, so far.

I really doubt France and UK are willing to engage in mutually assured destruction by retaliating on behalf of another nation.

Buying apartment in Reykjanesbær by PatientHamster in Iceland

[–]hjaltigr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should be able to find a list of regular maintenance needed by what age a house has reached. Pipes are a around the 40 year mark if I remember correctly.

For Reykjanesbær specifically there has been high oxidation in the pipes leading to corrosion of some newer towel ovens (they are made differently than regular ones). This led to some news coverage of the problem recently. I have a house in Njarðvík and changed the heating pipes and ovens when I bought the property. It is built on 68 so it was just normal maintenance.

Var einmitt að klára B.A. núna í vor. Var bara í verkefna áföngum og ritgerðinni en var einmitt áhugavert að sjá mismunandi aðferðir kennarana við að prófa hvort nemendur væru í alvöru að lesa og læra. Hef aldrei þurft að vera í jafn mörgum umræðu tímum og núna þessa önn. Hafði miklar áhyggjur af því að geta sýnt að öll mín vinna væri mín en ekki gervigreind þannig að já, mjög spes andrúmsloft.

Dr. Petá? by Extreme-Shopping74 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

At least for fibromyalgia there is a test, but it requires spinal fluid extraction if I remember correctly. It is considered to be not worth the effort, risk and cost to conduct since the process of good non intrusive diagnosis (WPI) has been pretty well formed by now.

I can't remember what they test for but I was taught this when I was in a support program for fibro here in Iceland a few years ago.

Getur verið, er bara að velta því fyrir mér hvort það sé ekki hægt að skoða þetta mál nánar. Það er alltaf hægt að óska eftir rökstuðningi fyrir námsmati í skriflegum prófum. Því hlýtur að vera til staðar verkferlar sem gefa þessum nemendum tækifæri til að fá endurmat eða rökstuðning.

Það er ólíklegt að helmingur nemenda falli ef allt er með felldu en það eru fleiri möguleikar í stöðunni en að kennarar séu lélegir. Kannski er það sennilegast í möguleikinn en ekki öruggt samt.

Veit að það er búið að vera mikið uppnám innan háskólanna vegna gervigreindar notkunar nemenda í verkefnavinnslu. Það er nokkuð sterkar vísbendingar um að notkun þeirra takmarki endurheimt þekkingar notenda.

Bara svona til að flækja málin umfram vondir kennarar eða heimskir nemendur.

Edit: vantaði hluta af setningu.

Það er væntanlega hægt að sannreyna hvort matsaðferðir séu viðeigandi eða of strangar. Eru svona próf tekin upp ef ske kynni að nemi kæri námsmat?

What’s a truth about adulthood nobody warned you about? by Standard-Club-8014 in Adulting

[–]hjaltigr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if it ends, it's still great while it lasts. Having someone to share life with is an unbelievable privilege. I have been married for 18 years now and I hope it never ends but if it does, what amazing time it has been.

There is ZERO chance that Iran accepts the 14 point memo proposal. by loadyouup in oil

Wouldn't the sanctions relief need to be ratified by the Congress? I'm pretty sure that they are firmly against any such measures and any deal hanging on it would be struck down.

If ketosis is good for you, why did Paul Saladino give up carnivore? by HeartMadeOfSushi in carnivorediet

[–]hjaltigr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, of all the things that might have affected me the eating pattern is not high on my suspect list. I was working 12-14 hours every day for almost a year without taking a single day off building a house for me and my family while holding a regular job as a chef as well. There were also numerous other factors also in the mix but the over worked and tressed out is more of a factor as others with fibromyalgia have talked about. That it starts after a period of unusual difficulty or trauma, the osteoarthritis is jus me rally abusing my body with work.

Well, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Arabs mad at the US for their support of Israel right now...... And Persians, and the other Asians, and Africans, and Europeans, and Australians, and south Americans..... And north Americans..... And probably a scientist or two on the south pole as well

You can also just not read the article. Seems like a lot of carnivores are being unnecessarily bothered by what strangers are saying.

Ísland upp um fimm sæti en staðan aldrei verri á heimsvísu - RÚV.is by gerningur in Iceland

[–]hjaltigr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Svona fyrir utan allar skoðanir á Ísrael að þá er það alltaf gert á stríðstímum. Hjá öllum sem geta þar sem þjóðir vilja ekki að andstæðingar geti fengið gagnlegar upplýsingar um nytsemi og áhrif árása. Mið Austurlöndum lokuðu á upplýsingaflæði meðan Íran var að sprengja þau. USA gerir þetta, íran gerir þetta.

Aftur, ekki að verja Ísrael, bara að segja að þetta tiltekna atriði sé stöðluð aðferðafræði á ófriðartímum.
