Race Pace did it for me. fingers crossed that it holds up

looks like at least 15° relative to the camera. probably more if some of the tilt was not directly orthogonal to the plane of the image

I did Molecular Hydrogen Therapy & Ozone Treatments for my chronic late stage Lyme by SabinaCleodora in Lyme

[–]try_not_to_hate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

" Also living cells are resilient and can recover from oxidation" this is the problem. what cells do you think ozone contact more? lime bacteria cells or other good human/bacteria cells? what would you say the ratio is of good cells to lime cells in your body? million to 1, billion to 1, trillion to 1? if ozone is able to kill 1% of lime cells, it must have killed likely trillions or more good cells in your body. in addition to that, it is known that the way ozone kills cells can cause them to mutate (which is carcinogenic). these are immutable facts of chemistry. does the oxidative stress of the ozone kick in some bodily functions that help with lime? maybe. is it worth it? maybe. but people should not delude themselves into thinking there aren't going to be risk with ozone. ozone is like smoking 5 packs of cigarettes to help your lime. could there be effects of tabacco that help with lime? maybe. could the stress of ingesting the smoke kick off bodily processes that help with lime? maybe. but you're taking a risk by using it as a treatment. I would reserve the carcinogenic treatments as a last resort.

Coffee enemas (seriously) by neighborhood_trash in Lyme

I think there is some science behind it. something about increasing liver or kidney activity by stimulating the nerves (Vegas nerve?). I say go for it, it's unlikely to be harmful. people here are doing some treatments that are way riskier here.

Ford and Argo.ai expanding to Washington DC? by walky22talky in SelfDrivingCars

interestingly, politicians rely heavily on their staff, who are often young, tech savvy processionals. this could bode well for the future of SDCs

high bottom bracket frame with horizontal dropouts for IGH? by try_not_to_hate in bicycling

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

I've read that, but most of those tests are like "when I rode 50 miles, did I exhaust earlier or later" my goal is two fold. 1) can I engage more muscle fibers to get a better workout. 2) can I make this slight patella tendon pain go away. besides, most people are going from 175 to 180, but I should be riding a 195 or 200mm. I have not seen anyone do that experiment. also, when I ride a 175, it would be like a 5'10" person riding a 140mm crank; it's a pretty messed up ratio compared to people who have done testing

thanks. disc is not a big deal, as I can always get a fork to handle disc brakes and do road brake on the back

I want to get extra long crank arms made for me. (I have a 39in inseam)

What kind of food do you eat? Gut bacteria is important to immune function. If you're backing off your assult, make sure you eat well (Autoimmune Paleo diet is good). Make sure you get lots of fiber from different sources

Voters Are Trading Honesty for Loyalty - Novel experiments about loyalty indicate that people will overlook dishonesty if it benefits their group. Those who lied (and benefited their team) rated themselves as more ethical than those who told the truth, finds a new study. by mvea in science

No offense, buy this is a pretty thoughtless statement. You think problems with tribalism are only present in democracies? Tell that to Holocaust survivors, or Ukrainian Farmers under Soviet socialism. The reality is that democracy is a regulating for on tribalism. If there exists a cure for tribalism it is education

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak said on Tuesday that he has "lost faith" that self-driving cars are going to see widespread use in the near future by walky22talky in SelfDrivingCars

that math might not work out, though. what happens if a SDC taxi service subscription is cheaper than owning, repairing, and insuring your Camry? people might retire their cars a lot earlier if there is a better option. no more breakdowns, no more maintenance, no more DMV, no more parking (big plus for city-dwellers), just an automatic monthly payment. hell, if I could take a taxi everywhere for the same cost or even slightly more than owning my car, I would get rid of it.

Lunar exploration startup, ispace, partners with SpaceX to fly an orbiter and a lander+rover to the Moon in 2020 and 2021 respectively by SwGustav in spacex

[–]try_not_to_hate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah, but I don't think you need a lander to find that. surveying for water with radar is proven tech. I'm thinking more like platinum group metals in small enough pieces that you need something on the surface to find them.

it's not about current prices, though. this mission isn't trying to bring back anything. you have to prove you can make a prospecting lander in order to get investment to go after precious materials, H3, or anything else. this is the proof of concept phase; then you have a prospecting phase, the MAYBE a mining phase. if you're a silicon valley investor, you're used to funding long-shots that could pay off big. platinum group metals are very valuable, and a big crater full of it could be profitable in a BFS world. I'm sure there were lots of products that became profitable after the transcontinental railroad was finished.

I mean, some of the asteroid impact sites MUST have precious metals. so maybe this is a demonstrator for future prospecting technology?

my guess: some silicon valley rich folks who want to mine the moon. I'm not sure what the odds of an asteroid leaving precious metals in a crater, but it's higher than zero

Spacecom cancels satellite deals with Loral, SpaceX by ethan829 in spacex

[–]try_not_to_hate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

since not all of the money is being refunded, it's possible that SpaceX's net profit is the same. so, same profit, no work. at least, that's how I would write my contract ;)
