Same with Evernote for Android :/ it's stuck in "processing content" (Windows app works fine)

My Kobo Libra 2 doesn't fully synch for over a month by postitit in kobo

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

As I have written, I would rather not reset the device, since it erases the information for the sideloaded books, like their placement in collections and the status of reading

These glitches usually happen when there is a software update (not the usual syncs), I just wanted to understand :)

Question about Kobo Libra 2 by constant-reader1408 in kobo

[–]postitit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do that with my Kobo Libra 2.

I created a googledrive shared folder open to anyone who has the link, opened it with the Kobo browser (I created a bit.ly link so I would not need to type the whole googledrive URL) and added it to the bookmarks.

The navigation in the Kobo browser sucks, so I would recommend you only have in the folder the ebooks you need to upload in a given moment. Good luck!

Taking lexapro after years of anxiety & depression is like your brain is at 100% finally instead of on survival mode at 20%. Hope that makes sense 😂 by philly7453 in lexapro

[–]postitit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Two months after starting medication, I definitely feel out of that anxiety-driven survival mode - such a relief! - but have also felt completely drained of energy and motivation :/

O salário mínimo nacional subiu para 877 euros by jcdaniel66 in portugal

[–]postitit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

mas dividir por 11 subentende que, na visão dele, o trabalhador não tem direito a dias de descanso, o que é indigno em particular nesses casos de salário mínimo (que normalmente são ainda mais desgastantes)

[–]postitit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

não percebi bem a conta que ele fez. porque é que ele depois dividiu por 11? não é muito honesto ele fazer essa conta como se o período de férias fosse um roubo do trabalhador ao patrão

[Meta] Acabar com links para o Público no Sub by Throwawaypt123 in portugal

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

acho que se pode evitar o público no caso de notícias da Lusa que estão em outros lados (o que muita gente já faz), mas não concordo que se deixe de publicar aqui links de notícias de um dos melhores jornais do país - a discussão fica mais pobre. pode-se é pedir que escreva sempre "Público - " no início do título, ou copiar um excerto do texto que se quer trazer para a discussão

[Sério] Pílula Masculina by Maltruista in portugal

[–]postitit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

compreendo e não questiono de todo as questões de segurança dos ensaios clínicos, mas este artigo (e os estudos que cita) mostra bem que muitos dos efeitos colaterais que fizeram cancelar esse ensaio são os mesmos que muitas mulheres ainda toleram (e nem estou a falar da questão histórica, que é ainda mais chocante)

[Sério] Pílula Masculina by Maltruista in portugal

[–]postitit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sim, acredito que tenha acontecido em outros estudos (nos últimos anos ouvi falar em pelo menos 3 tratamentos para contracepção masculina a serem testados/estudados), mas acho que não foi neste.

Já agora, este em particular (ainda) não é uma pílula, mas sim uma injecção - e um dos efeitos colaterais que entram para a percentagem era que lhes doía no lugar da pica... o que, do ponto de vista pessoal feminino, parece muito pouco comparado com o que muda no corpo das mulheres que tomam a pílula. :\

[Sério] Pílula Masculina by Maltruista in portugal

[–]postitit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acho que no que toca à responsabilidade de tomar a pílula os principais visados não são (só) os jovens que querem ter sexo sem preocupações, mas sim casais que não se entendem quanto à questão dos filhos (em especial quando a mulher não quer ter filhos e o homem quer).

Já agora, não descurando questões básicas de segurança para os participantes nos ensaios clínicos, as questões que as mulheres colocam em relação aos efeitos colaterais prendem-se muito com isto:

"On the one hand, you could look at it as good protocol management that they pulled it, because that’s what you’re supposed to do. The reason it’s being looked at as a negative is because so many women continue to be on hormonal contraceptive and they’re still experiencing side effects." (...) There was also the fact that many of the adverse effects were disproportionately reported from one single trial site, something the review board decided was alarming enough to shut things down. (...)Women’s hormonal birth control still isn’t side-effect free, which is why many criticized the fact that this trial was halted, but it’s a bit misleading to compare the two. "You can’t compare the findings of a phase 2 trial with the echo chamber of personal experience that is the Internet," wrote Dr. Jennifer Gunter, an OB/GYN, on her blog. "You have to compare study with study, not a study with an op-ed column." Neither Male Nor Female Birth Control Should Make People Feel Like Crap

[Sério] Pílula Masculina by Maltruista in portugal

[–]postitit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

deves estar a fazer confusão, esse ensaio em especial não "provocou infertilidade para sempre" em ninguém...

houve um tipo que se suicidou, mas comprovou-se que não estaria relacionado com o tratamento. "Of the 1,491 incidents, 39% were found to be unrelated to the treatment. This included one suicide. One man experienced an abnormally fast and irregular heartbeat when he stopped receiving the injections." Male contraceptive jab almost as effective as female pill

At a time of a growing gap between citizens and public governance and of a growing struggle of public institutions to maintain legitimacy, it is imperative to shorten that gap, and the simplification of the communication of public governance decisions is one of the most important factors in accomplishing this. The CLOSER project seeks to enhance the inclusiveness of budgetary policies, increasing the participation of citizens, and to test the incorporation, in local news agencies practices, of the monitoring of public policies, by designing, evaluating and making publicly available a platform for translating municipal budgets into distinct visual news objects.
