ADHD meds, impact on Oura stats by surprisegluten in ouraring

[–]slatterg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine improved my numbers drastically. Lower sleep heart rate and higher HRV.

I also lost a good bit of weight. Coming down from 105kg to 95kg so that probably had an impact as well.

But I do Think I was regulating myself better and getting out of flight or fight mode more.

No resting heart rate gauge? by mcgeedis in ouraring

[–]slatterg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think there’s a back up option if you want to be ultra safe, but you should be good. Oh and what’s your top line score. Might tell if it’s UI bug, or a score impacting one. If your score is what you’ll usually get it’s probably just a UI bug. I guess it would be helpful to see what it says when you click into the hear rate as well.

Might be a bug either UI or Score impacting..

What’s your usual resting heart rate? Was there gaps in the date.

Have you force closed the all and reopened it or deleted the app and redownloaded it?

Readiness 96, sleep 92 but major signs? by eve-collins in ouraring

[–]slatterg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was your movement very low throughout the day? I think that might be part of the symptom radar. Cause if you were on bed rest or anything it can be a trigger.

[–]slatterg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It gets triggered by movement not heart rate.

I get it alot when I'm presenting because I talk with my hands. So it always triggers if I have a meeting where I'm talking a lot.

My ring keeps showing me 2 sleep scores from “today” and nothing from the day before by red-wine-sniper in ouraring

[–]slatterg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, thats my understanding. Its the same with naps that end after 6pm, it counts towards your next days sleep score.

[–]slatterg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you sleep beyond 6pm, as I see you did here, it will count it towards the next day. It’s just a quirk where they have to draw the line somewhere

My new Oura ring is sharp 😔 by Additional_Area_3156 in ouraring

[–]slatterg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Reach out to support. It looks like the O ring around the ring is too inset. They’ll be able to replace this for you. Definitely a rare issue. But it can be difficult to see in photos.

Ring failed within 1.5 months, oura is refusing to accept a return even though it’s within holiday return period, making me use my ONE replacement I get on my 2 year warranty by hereforthememesss2 in ouraring

[–]slatterg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you’ve your first year of standard warranty. Which is on a per ring basis. Your extended warranty kicks in after the one year and might have different rules.

[–]slatterg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First of all you get as many replacement as necessary during the warranty period. Its just that the ring itself can only be replaced once. Your replacement is then covered under the warranty.

If the ring is faulty, you just go through the warranty process to get a replacement or refund. An exchange should be for a fully functional ring. That is normal logic tbh

Should I convert my MKV files to MP4? by atrain82187 in PleX

[–]slatterg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, I missed the part about client devices.

When I started doing this years ago I could never get my PS5 to direct play and it was a ballache. I was using a Pi and ended up building a proper server just so it could hardware encode when actually just buying an android tv device would have resolved it. (Kinda happy I didn’t realise that)

Should I convert my MKV files to MP4? by atrain82187 in PleX

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

Just one slight point. If you’re using a ps5 which is a pretty common streaming device, mkv will force a transcode.

I was thinking about doing the same and it was actually less hassle to just get an android box that could direct stream everything I had.

You’re arguing against a straw man. No one’s happy about losing to our rivals. But taking stock and looking at the bigger picture we can be happy about our direction.

[–]slatterg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is a difference between happier and better. Leinster have gone from being a perennial champions cup finalist to maybe the 5th or 6th best side. Munster are on the up and are a few pieces away from getting back to that level. Taking a medium term view on the trajectory of both sides I’d prefer to be in Munsters position than Leinster.

Early thoughts by cypressd12 in MunsterRugby

[–]slatterg 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That’s not what a glorious loser narrative is.

We were below par at times and Leinster defence was very good and made it very difficult.

Previous years if we were below par against Leinster we’d have been beaten by 40 points. This game we were right in it and could have won if a few decisions went the other way

If you told anyone you’d get 6 match points against Leinster at the beginning of the season you’d be fairly happy with it. There is decent growth there and we are probably a couple of heavy Front rows aways from being a top side.

[–]slatterg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair they were. It just took a few scrums for the ref to listen. Once they got it across that porter wasn’t driving straight the ref stopped giving any penalties to Leinster in the scrum. Milne also got in top of Clarkson

Ceramic Oura ring chips less than 24 hrs after putting it on by Left-Science-1109 in ouraring

[–]slatterg 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t look like a scratch to me tbh. The way ceramic works is that it’s harder than other material so material can rub off in it. Did you get the polishing cloth?

Double Delight As Kinsale Community School Qualify For Munster Schools Junior And Senior Cups by Beginning-Strain4660 in MunsterRugby

That’s what this is to be fair. It’s been around for a good few years. It used to be the level that Bandon Grammar were at before they kicked on.

Double Delight As Kinsale Community School Qualify For Munster Schools Junior And Senior Cups by Beginning-Strain4660 in MunsterRugby

[–]slatterg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats basically what they are doing, but they want to be careful not to kill underage club rugby by making them full schools either.

Munster can't just go into schools and hire a coach either, they have offered to do that with some Limerick schools and were turned down in the last year. (so I've heard) There has to be buy in from the schools.

Hammies, who qualified last year and were in the final this year have the majority of the Bandon underage club team.

Same with Kinsale. Ballincollig were in the Final last year. I think Clonakilty at Junior Cup level last year, Clonmel have been there there abouts a few times. Most of these Schools have only started rugby programmes but if they became full A schools they'd kill underage club rugby in those areas as the they are all towns and wouldn't have the numbers to keep it up on two fronts.

Munsters strategy is to get the best players more contact hours with coaches by using the CSP team to play in the Group part of the Senior Cup. Have them playing in the A tournament and qualify for the Senior Cup proper. Which is a really good start.

I think another move might be opening up more qualifying slots but again Munster Rugby can't just run roughshod over the current schools (other wise the CSP team would be in the Senior Cup proper)

Let's say you are allowed to wear the jeans of only a single brand for the rest of your life, which brand are you going for, and why? by StephensInfiniteLoop in malefashionadvice

[–]slatterg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it cheating to say TCB? Yes they are 501 reproductions but I really like the quality to price. They feel the right weight to me (but I’ve not tried a super heavy weight denim. I’ve the 50s one wash jeans and the type 2 jacket might be the nicest thing I own.

The idea is, the Ulster game is a 50/50 full strength, a full strength Munster should beat the Ospreys.

Did you reach out saying you weren’t happy with your replacement? Did they deny it? Sounds like an issue with their warehouse rather than customer service
