There are a range of tachycardia/arrythmia that you can have since birth that may not show up until you’re older, or get triggered by certain meds or nutrient deficiencies (things like potassium).

I wouldn’t ignore this for a minute longer. Maybe just walk into urgent care and ask if they’re equipped to check it out (basically EKG). I know my urgent care is.

If they aren’t equipped, then go to ER.

But please don’t sit on this any longer. Some arrythmias are fairly benign, but if it’s happening repeatedly, it will eventually cause tissue damage that you don’t really fully recover from. Plus you don’t know if yours is benign (and most docs would say arrythmia is never benign, even if it isn’t killing you in the moment).

Stitches don’t necessarily mean ER.

Guess it really depends on your urgent care.

For the most part, I’ll go to my urgent care unless I know damn sure ER is needed (the urgent care is in my network). It’s no farther away, (ER is a couple blocks away), and urgent care is less out of pocket. If they determine ER is required, they’ll say so (and recommend ambulance if they feel it’s necessary).

Basically the triage nurse will assess and make a determination.

I’ve had family go there for cardiovascular issues (and be treated and sent home). They’re fully equipped to stabilize someone if they need to go elsewhere. They have a full complement of equipment, including radiology (everything but CAT).

Keeping in mind the object with the larger mass will (over those millions of years) pull the smaller object closer in all dimensions/planes

It’s still hard for me to get my head around, it would be great to see an animation showing this with perhaps 3 or 4 objects. It’s especially hard for me to visualize the gas cloud around a star coelescing into a plane, even before the more solid objects form.

Is this because of rotational mechanics around the star?

Depends on who your dear is 😁

Is helium used in deodorants these days?

It’s surprising an experienced deep sea explorer would go along on something like this.

When I first read about it, it took me less than 5 minutes to discover many, many reasons it was a bad idea.

Wow, I hadn’t thought it through like that, but yea, you’re right.

One or the other. Pick.

Very interesting, but I don’t see how replacing the same volume of air in our lungs with helium doesn’t make you lighter. It’s the same volume, so the volume displacement zeroes out in any equation - I think that poster may mean as compared to empty lungs. Even then I think they’re mistaken - otherwise a blimp/balloon wouldn’t work, as it too is displacing air around itself, and increasing in volume.

I think your closing statement contradicts your earlier statement about weighing less (though I get the point you’re trying to make about mass).

Do we consider weight a sum of all interactions in a given place (including atmosphere)? I’d say we do, since our atmosphere accounts for a notable portion of our weight, and I’ve never seen a scale with a negative tare to account for atmospheric weight.

The difference is even this pittance of a fine wouldn’t happen in a planned economy - it would be like the planners fining themselves.

What we’re seeing here is a result of the amoral “beastly” types concentrating power. What you’re suggesting is to intentionally concentrate that power from the start.

Facebook is a great example of democracy - the billions of people using it have effectively (in their voluntary ignorance) voted for it to be like this. These are the same people who would vote for policies in a pure democracy.

And you’re ignoring what happens in the SMB space, where people aren’t part of the corrupt circle.

You’re welcome to start a small community anywhere in the US with a planned economy, as proof of concept.

You could call it… A commune, to indicate its goals.

I’d not heard of OST, so just read an article summary and realized I’d discovered I needed a “distractor” to get school work done when I was about 10 years old. I had no idea it was understood since the 50’s at least.

Wow.

Not to excuse MS crap, but you consented by not managing the system during setup. If you accept defaults, you’re consenting to what someone else thinks about how your system runs.

I’ve never once had Windows do updates behind my back, because I configure the update system as part of setup. At work, we manage the updates for all systems.

I like your use of “sufficiently unplugged”, as we’re all plugged in, to varying degrees.

Hahaha, you’re so full of shit your eyes are brown.

All companies with more than a handful of employees, have HR. It’s a legal issue for them.

Salary vs hourly really has fuck all to do with this.

Good HR people are there to protect the company, yes, but they’re also there to protect the employees.

Their primary responsibility is to protect the company, protecting employees only matters in the context of protecting the company.

Didn’t bother reading the rest, because you’re already bullshitting.

Why the hell would I want to:

1. Use that garbage called discord

2. Use corporate spyware like shitcord?

3. Give all this local gossip detail a place online

4. Let alone in spyware garbage like shitcord?

Did I forget to mention what utter shit discord is?

Have you never used NextDoor? Ffs, people are such gossipy ignoramuses on an app like that, why would I bother?

I wonder if maybe some kind of notification system for her, and you, would be useful (in addition to blocking).

Then maybe you can interrupt her, perhaps talk about it, or setup some tools for her to use to help manage stuff and learn along the way.

Guess what I’m going for is the learning/growth angle, rather than just automatic constraints (which hy themselves don’t teach or help us learn to manage this stuff ourselves).

Seems like there’s a need for all this for all kids, not just neuro-atypical.

Ah, OK.

Yea, not sure if these units can yet support expansion of a data set.

BTRFS and ZFS technically have the capability (from what I recall) in the latest versions, the question is does the device you’re looking at support the capability? I haven’t looked into enough of them to know for sure.

That said, my ancient Drobo can do this, but… It will only see the new size once you upgrade all the drives. It will resilver with a new larger drive but until all drives are upgraded it won’t use the extra drive space of an added larger drive.

(And yes, Drobo is garbage, this one was free, I had some spare drives and I use it as a third local storage device, kind of a spare I don’t really trust).
