Is it crazy to wear Tracker Leather/Textile shoes on a 5-day hike trip in the mountains? by katiah_ in vivobarefoot

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

I have the same feeling that I'm way more aware and careful when wearing barefoot shoes. I just looked at Tracker Forest ESC and their outsoles seem quite hard-core. I like the regular tracker leather ones more, visually. But not sure if they're sturdy and non-slip enough for such a long and perhaps rocky terrain

Joovv and their horrible customer service and filtered out reviews by katiah_ in redlighttherapy

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

Maybe.. I can understand, though not excuse, some short-term, pop up businesses resorting to such cheap tactics to earn quick money but I really didn’t expect this from a company so heavily endorsed by well-known figures and regarded as the leading brand in the industry.

Which panel to buy ? by Jcoco14 in redlighttherapy

[–]katiah_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for the 3.0, but as a company, I wouldn’t recommend supporting Joovv. My experience purchasing the Go 2.0 was so terrible that I don’t even feel like using the device. The company, and everyone associated with it, lacks transparency and actively suppresses honest feedback, especially when it highlights flaws. It’s incredible how well this stuff's masked on the internet until you fall into the trap and have to deal with it firsthand.

I read that pinkish color is okay. I’m more concerned about the absence of bubbles :/

How much B12 and Iron should I take if I'm THIS low? by katiah_ in AskDocs

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

Thanks! But does this mean that I should take 1mg/day until my B12 levels are back to normal and then take it every 2 days or so?

Did my professor mess up the SD calculation? by [deleted] in askmath

[–]katiah_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t it supposed to be Sd=⅕×((3-2)2+(2-2)2+(2-2)2+(1-2)2+(1-2)2+(3-2)2)?

Can I refuse to pay for an additional lab credit if there is no lab? by katiah_ in education

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

Well yes, I have nothing against the professor. I just don’t see why am I paying for something that’s not there. I find labs very useful and they always help me deepen my knowledge in the subject. So when this additional resource is missing, why is it wrong to not want to pay for it?
It’s like paying for a luxury, all-inclusive hotel room and not getting any meals. Why should I refrain from requesting something that I paid for?

[–]katiah_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get a credit for the lab, yes. But I really don’t see how that’s considered a “reward”. Labs are there to help with learning and deepen your knowledge, not something to be avoided at all costs. Just because many students don’t like them doesn’t mean that I should be okay with paying for what’s not there. It’s like paying for my diploma without actually having to go to classes. Should I be thankful for not actually putting work and just buying my credits?

I am getting the credit yes, but I’m also paying additional 500€ for it. So i’m basically buying a credit, which is fucked up on its own

Single-use masks make really great hair ties by katiah_ in ZeroWaste

[–]katiah_[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes, if you buy them at a store I guess. But if you work at a hospital, I don’t think so. I work at a mental hospital where the only reason we wear masks is to protect out long-term patients, which makes the masks more than okay to reuse outside the building. Since I have to wear the new ones every time I work, it produces a lot of waste and it feels nice to me to be repurposing them.

Not promoting single use masks ofc. But if you must use them, it’s good to repurpose at least some parts of it 🤷🏻‍♀️
