My money is on it being a rental

Pretty sure its just moral relativism.

Yea, I had a series 3, hated it coming from a galaxy watch. Daily charging, dies on 24h shifts tons of useless features that I never use, looks weird for a watch, no always on display (granted not a problem for newer ones I gather). And the goddamn screen got scratched so fast, even more so when I started bouldering.

I was a actually kinda glad I busted the screen and could justify getting a Garmin Instinct 2 Solar. I was a bit apprehensive about how it would play with an Iphone, but it is pretty damn good.

Best watch I have owned, even the galaxy watch pales in comparison. I can actually track sleep because the battery lasts 2 weeks with nightly pulseox (should be 3 without), potentially a lot longer but the sun is a foreign concept this time of year. It gives me what I need and nothing more (although it is a bit off the mark on a few things. The fitness tracking is great, it is actually a lot better for bouldering. No annoying touch stuff, actual physical buttons, that while take a bit of adjusting to, are perfectly adequate for reaching all the functions quickly. Seems sturdy as hell too.

The only feature I miss a little is answering calls on it. Was useful 3 times a year or so when I used it while I was busy but could have a conversation on loudspeaker. Besides this I cant get it to track additional sleep episodes properly (say on my 24h shifts when I get multiple short bursts of sleep or just general naps). The sleep tracking is semi auto - you set a sleep time, the watch only tracks sleep in sleep mode. Theres no automatic workout tracking (I guess there is a weird half tracking thing), although I hated auto tracking on the galaxy watch, I was fine with apple but never used it. Now granted all of the above is a mild annoyance at best, for me.

Don’t feel bad, this is the reaction most people will have in a medical emergency.

As others have said, you need actionable knowledge and practice. Experienced emergency providers don’t have to think much to stabilise a patient, its all ingrained and practiced, almost like a reflex. A good team can deal with most emergencies efficiently without communication (not that they should).

Of all the interventions you could do during an emergency, heres the most important ones, find a way to practice them:

• Assess safety (this includes not touching blood with bare hands) and Call for help. Even experienced providers forget this, because noone practices this. Your first instinct should be this in any emergency. When you practice, you should always practice this step too even if you just audibly day “I check for safety and look for help”, ideally you practice yelling for help.

• Quality chest compressions, minimise downtime. Mouth to mouth is great, but not as important and not mandatory for bystanders, although it becomes more important in drowning and in younger people.

• Asphyxiation - back slaps (strong, not pats) and abdominal thrusts.

• Applying pressure to a bleeding wound. With gloves or the sole of your shoe on dressing.

• Stable side laying position - in any unconscious person without the need for any of the above. This is the one and only thing you do during epileptic seizures too. Do not shove things into unconscious peoples mouths…

• Ideally you know how to free up an airway via chin lift.

If you can practice these, you can actually save a life in an emergency.

Dont leave a bike that is worth stealing, if you mind it being stolen, for daily commutes just get a second hand bike for around 200$ and fix it up, pick up a 50$ kryptonite NY lock and ride stress free.

Iirc he also tested bypassing the lock as well, at least for some locks.

I.e. Bolt cutters, grinders and pneumatics

So does archinstall.

Theres no real reason to manually install arch anymore though, archinstall script is easy, and works well. Yea you don’t get a fancy GUI, but there are plenty of options to choose at install time.

I don’t know if this counts, but I have the Waking Up podcast subscriber RSS feed, just googled for it. That said, Im pretty sure if you write an email to Harris stating you can’t afford it right now but would like to listen anyway, you will get it free anyway. At least the app is like that, but IIRC that has been his method for the podcast too.

Personally, if i have too much and/or too late, i have a hard time falling asleep in the evening.

I highly suggest reading the Hitchikers guide to the galaxy. A theme along these lines comes up, but less evil and more incompetent.

Nvidia by default does not preserve video memory when you suspend.

Relatively easy to fix if you follow arch wiki.

Since caring about them means you can stave off green energy.

How sensitve of an electronics are we talking here? For common household electronics, including computers, static is not dangerous.

Yea, they tend to do that, think they did the same with blaahaj. Pretty funny tbh.

Whatever the case here, we can safely conclude that all of the aforementioned are, in fact, salads

Who put the gun to your head and made you run the software though?

So just don’t upgrade the kernel

I guess, overcooking is a measurement problem anyway tho.

This is one I thoroughly do not understand, maybe because I have not tried it, but cooking rice is already so easy, why would i need a separare appliance for it?
