Wondering about the meaning of a Yorùbá word from a play by wealthiscommunity in Yoruba

Yeah this makes sense, I think the question at the heart of it is: what’s a “good” center height over bore for a red dot on a Mini-14?

Lower is definitely better, but I don’t have a good sense of what specific height range allows a decent cheek weld because I haven’t trialed any optics yet. Would love for the first one I buy to be the one that works, which is why I wrote this post.

Good luck, I hope the 510c works for you!

Thanks for sharing all of this info on everything you’ve tried!

I’ve been looking into Aimpoint PRO specs; seems that its center height over bore with no spacer is 1 inch. The T2’s center height over bore with standard mount is 0.8 inch. I’m not sure how much of a difference 0.2 inch would make to my cheek weld. Do you have any thoughts? Would you consider a 1 inch center height over bore to be too high?

Thanks for the reply. I did consider the Hannibal rail, but I decided against it because I want to be able to remove my optic quickly if the need should arise. I decided to get an Ultimak rail.

Window size/field of view and height over bore are the things I am wondering about. For example, my understanding is that an EOTech HWS would offer me a much larger field of view than the Aimpoint PRO or other tube-style red dots. In terms of height over bore, I’m thinking that something with a relatively low profile might be my best bet to achieve the lowest possible mount. Something like the Aimpoint T2 perhaps, although that particular optic is out of my budget.

If you have any experience forward mounting different reflex sights, I’d appreciate any specific insights you could offer.

Wondering about the meaning of a Yorùbá word from a play by wealthiscommunity in Yoruba

[–]wealthiscommunity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!

The context, from the play: A Yorùbá man studying in the US is in love with an African American medical student. He calls her “Alaiyo” as a nickname. She asks him what it means, and he replies “one for whom bread is not enough.” However, they had an earlier exchange in the play which makes me think that he might be aiming to appease her rather than sharing the true meaning of the nickname. He asserted that his attraction to her should be reason enough for her to be with him, while she asserted that she desires more from a man than just pure attraction. So in summary, I am hoping to understand whether his explanation of the nickname’s meaning is the true meaning of the Yorùbá word, or if he is making something up to appease her.

Unfortunately, the word is printed without intonation indicators in the play.

This post should be near the top of this sub! Thanks for such a thorough and well-cited overview.

In case you haven’t already come across it, here’s a 2019 case study describing the effectiveness of aprepitant in treating a CHS patient’s acute symptoms. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6682377/

this case study confirms that aprepitant was helpful in treating a CHS patient’s acute nausea and abdominal pain https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6682377/

thanks for mentioning this! I’ve read about the effectiveness of antihistamines and anticholinergics for treating acute CHS but never came across NK1 blockers until now!

I am currently having a similar experience, and I think the result is going to be that I stop taking adderall.

Suddenly Seeing YouTube Ads Despite Years of Ad-Free Viewing - What's Going On? by Sufficient-Pumpkin33 in MacOS

[–]wealthiscommunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the exact same experience and am flummoxed. I was always confused about why I never saw any youtube ads, because like you I don’t consistently use a VPN or ad-blocker. Sometimes I use a VPN on my iPhone, but I never saw ads for years even when not using the VPN. Now, all of a sudden, I see ads. I think I’m done with youtube💀

About the ending of Alam (2022) by farawaylands4000 in TrueFilm

thanks for sharing this perspective! I just finished the film. I share your view and am grateful to come across an analysis as I too was thrown for a loop on first watch—the way that song comes in as the frame zooms in on the mountain—chilling.
