2024.05.14 21:56 Anxious-Muffin52 Poop frequency

Our EBF 2 month old has been a pooping machine since she was about 2 weeks old. She averages 16 diaper changes a day, with 90% of them having some amount of poop.
Sometimes she has a pretty large poop, but most of the time it’s a small-medium amount. We’ve tried waiting 10 minutes for her to get more out but usually she won’t until at least 15-30 minutes later. As you might imagine she has struggled with diaper rash so we have to be vigilant about frequent changes (along with buckets of desitin). Thankfully we’ve been managing to keep it at bay for the most part.
One other aspect that is frustrating is that she will often squirt out more poop during a diaper change (sometimes 5-10 times a single change) especially if she is crying during the changing or sneezes/coughs.
She is gaining weight well and eating in normal patterns for a normal amount of time. Her sleep is generally okay but sometimes broken up more than we’d like because of her frequent poops.
My wife has some diary but not much. We haven’t noticed a big difference when she’s not had any.
The pediatrician has said that this is very normal for newborns and once her digestive system is more developed she should have less frequent poops. But I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something like this and whether there is anything we can do. And how long this may go on.

2024.05.14 21:16 PuzzleheadedGoal8234 Erosive Gastritis and Intestinal inflammation

It just keeps getting better.
I had IBS type symptoms for years and managed ok.
After a long bout of covid in 2021 I have now recurring blood and mucous in my stool. Chronic anemia and B12 deficiencies have shown up.
We did a colonoscopy where they found chronic and slight active inflammation with architectural changes, 6+ large inflammatory polyps, and extensive paneth cell metaplasia. GI still haven't given a definitive diagnosis on that after the path report came in and is waiting another 3 months to retest inflammatory markers.
Then we do the EGD and find Erosive Gastritis. I've already tested negative for H Pylori (breath test) and Celiac (serum testing) a month prior. No NSAID use (due to other inflammatory condition), no alcohol, smoking, or current bacterial infection. Only noticeable symptom was heavy pain trying to digest animal proteins.
I'm on 5 different meds to treat symptoms and we still don't know the definitive underlying causes of any of it. My whole GI system seems inclined to get in on the action over time.

2024.05.14 21:05 BubblySeat8002 Mother Has rheumatoid athritis

hello there, my mother has had RA since almost 2009, early on she was prescribed steroids which decreased the pain but seriously deteriorated other aspects of her health including her digestive system. After a few years she switched to homeopatic medicine and has so far worked well for her, she is able to live a somewhat normal life doing normal things. she has these occasional bouts of pain which subside in a few hours. She also has Asthama and tbh i am pretty young and am always concerned for her, we aren't rich by any means so we can't afford house help so she ends up doing a huge load of the household chores because i am preparing for competitive exams which fall at the end of this month and i spend most of the day studying (i try to do as much as i can in the house (my dad is at work all day and is only there after 9) . for the last 2-3 years she has been forgetting a few things and i am worried it might be alzhimers i am commenting here to ask if this is a possibility (and if it is how can we detect it early) and hoping you all can advice me on how to better improve my mother's health, thank you. \*for context i am from south asia and health services are pretty accessible but mostly expensive for the avg middle class family.*

Digestive enzymes and their effects
So I didn't realize that digestive enzymes are great for fighting candida overgrowth. I was taking inositol with digestive enzymes and was feeling great then anxiety nailed me. I did some reading and found out that digestive enzymes fight CO biofilm. My anxiety has spiked. I believe I started taking digestive enzymes on Friday and I was taking a few per day. Took them on Saturday and Sunday through lunch before I figured out why I was feeling bad.
How long before the effects of taking the enzymes clears the system? Here are the ingredients for the enzyme.

2024.05.14 18:43 AdInteresting2401 Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) - Interview with Prof. Dr. Knut Brockow

Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) is the subject of heated debate. How are mast cell activation syndromes defined? Which diseases are included? What is the diagnosis and treatment of mast cell activation syndrome? Prof. Dr. Knut Brockow, Clinic and Polyclinic for Dermatology and Allergology at the Biederstein, Technical University of Munich answers these questions in an interview with MeinAllergiePortal.
Mast cell activation syndrome: The most important facts!
-The prototype of mast cell activation syndrome is recurrent anaphylaxis
-Other forms of idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome are being sought; however, there are mainly symptom descriptions where the diagnosis cannot be made
-Clinical suspicion of MCAS is based on recurring allergy-like symptoms on the skin, nose, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract and circulation
-The diagnosis of MCAS is made according to recognized international criteria based on three criteria
-MCAS is often suspected even when symptoms are inappropriate and the diagnosis is unclear; the suspicion is then not helpful for patients
-The same medications are used to treat MCAS as are used to treat allergies, in particular antihistamines and cromoglicic acid
Prof. Brockow, what kind of disease is MCAS?
Mast cell activation syndrome is not an established diagnosis, but rather a concept. Historically, this concept arose because an increasing number of patients came to the doctor's office with complaints that gave the impression of having been triggered by mast cells. These patients sometimes showed symptoms similar to those of allergic reactions, anaphylaxis or mastocytosis, but a clear diagnosis for these diseases could not be made. Nevertheless, it was suspected that there could at least be a connection with mast cell diseases. Unfortunately, the term MCAS created more uncertainty than understanding. This is because MCAS is now thrown around as a diagnosis for many patients with many symptoms and an unclear diagnosis. This is not helpful for patients and fuels short-term hope of diagnosis and cure, which cannot be fulfilled later.
Is MCAS an autoimmune disease?
No, in autoimmune diseases mast cells are not primarily involved and not as lead cells, but lymphocytes that attack the body's own structures, in some cases by forming antibodies.
Is there a connection between mast cell activation syndrome and autoimmune diseases?
No, there is no known connection between MCAS and autoimmune diseases. It has also been claimed by specific authors that other diseases, such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) are related to mast cell activation syndrome. However, there are no good arguments for this. Unfortunately, such claims are easy to make and difficult to refute.
What is the cause of mast cell activation syndrome?
Mast cell activation syndrome is actually more of a symptom description than a diagnosis in its own right. Mast cell activation syndrome is fully applicable to recurrent anaphylaxis (severe allergic reactions in several organ systems such as the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract and circulatory system), for example due to insect bites. All the criteria for mast cell activation syndrome are met here. Severe allergic reactions are the most common cause of MCAS. However, although the term MCAS is correct in this context, it does not provide any additional information, as patients with such events are better described as patients with a diagnosis of anaphylaxis or allergy, and the term MCAS is somewhat confusing.
Is mast cell activation syndrome genetic?
MCAS itself is not genetic, but patients with the genetic disease mastocytosis often suffer from anaphylaxis, particularly to insect venom, and therefore MCAS. In addition, it is currently being investigated whether people with genetically determined hereditary alpha-tryptasemia suffer more frequently from MCAS.
How did the term mast cell activation syndrome come about?
There were many patients without a clear diagnosis, some of whom predominantly showed the symptoms typical of mast cell diseases. Accordingly, the experts dealing with mast cell diseases saw the need to develop a concept that took into account the “undiagnosable” symptoms of the patients. In the course of this, the terms “mast cell activation” and “mast cell activation syndrome” were defined. In addition, an attempt was made to sort all mast cell diseases into a classification with regard to mast cell activation. However, the difficulty in classifying these complaints is that many of the complaints described by patients are subjective, relatively non-specific and can be both organic and psychosomatic.
How have you defined mast cell diseases and which diseases do they include?
Mast cell diseases are defined as recurring chronic symptoms that are compatible with mast cell activation.
Mast cell activation is classified on the basis of three criteria:
Recurrent typical clinical symptoms in at least two organ systems
An increase in mast cell mediators can be detected in the blood, most frequently by determining the serum tryptase level during an acute attack
Good response of symptoms to anti-mast cell mediator-directed therapy, especially H1 antihistamines
What types of mast cell disease are there?
The classification of mast cell diseases associated with mast cell activation syndromes defines three groups:
1. primary mast cell activation syndrome
Primary mast cell activation syndrome is explained by a clonal expansion of mutated overactive mast cells. It manifests as systemic or cutaneous mastocytosis. If these criteria are not completely fulfilled, but clonal mast cells have been detected, it is referred to as monoclonal mast cell activation syndrome.
2 Secondary mast cell activation syndrome
Secondary mast cell activation syndrome is present when clear triggers of mast cell activation are known. There are established terms for secondary mast cell activation syndrome that we are more familiar with, such as “anaphylaxis” to a known trigger. The classification in the second group of mast cell diseases is therefore merely a reclassification. Examples of mast cell activation are physical urticaria or cold urticaria. Allergies such as pollen allergies are also secondary mast cell activations, as hay fever also causes symptoms typical of mast cell diseases. In pollen allergies, mast cell mediators are found in the blood serum and drugs directed against mast cells have a good effect. If the symptoms recur in several organ systems, this is referred to as mast cell activation syndrome.
3. tertiary or idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome
Tertiary or idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome refers to mast cell diseases whose triggers are unknown. This group would include, for example, chronic spontaneous urticaria, which has additional symptoms in other organs. Here we know that mast cells are activated, but not by what. This group of idiopathic mast cell activation syndromes would also include patients with as yet undescribed clinical pictures who do not fulfill the diagnostic criteria of known mast cell diseases, e.g. allergy, anaphylaxis, but in whom the disease is triggered by mast cells. In these patients, however, the connection between the symptoms and the activities of the mast cells must be proven.
Does this mean that tertiary or idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome is a diagnosis of exclusion?
Idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome can be described as a diagnosis of exclusion insofar as the prerequisite for the diagnosis is that there is no other disease causing the symptoms. However, the symptoms described are often very, very unspecific and could also be caused by a variety of other diseases. However, there are the three criteria for mast cell activation syndrome already mentioned. If these are not all fulfilled, this diagnosis cannot be made.
How common is mast cell activation syndrome?
Anaphylaxis and severe recurrent allergies are not uncommon and represent the vast majority of appropriate cases for MCAS. In addition, mastocytosis patients often have multiple anaphylaxis and therefore also MCAS. However, our initial idea of finding a new disease, idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome, has not yet been confirmed. There are many patients with many symptoms for whom a clear organic diagnosis cannot yet be made. However, it is almost never possible to prove that a defect in the mast cells is primarily responsible for the symptoms. Many of these patients describe symptoms that could fit, and in some patients anti-allergic drugs also have a positive effect. But in only very few patients can an increase in mast cell mediators be detected during an acute attack. I now believe that somatic stress disorders could play a significant role in many of the patients examined.
Histamine intolerance is also a diagnosis of exclusion, is there a connection with mast cell activation syndrome?
Histamine intolerance can cause similar symptoms, but is not a mast cell disorder and has nothing to do with MCAS. When mast cells are activated, the messenger substance histamine is released, which in turn can cause symptoms. In histamine intolerance, the mast cell is not activated - it is not involved in any way. Rather, histamine intolerance describes patients with an increased sensitivity to histamine, which is supplied, for example, via the diet. This can lead to similar symptoms, but in contrast to mast cell activation syndrome, histamine intolerance has a clear trigger, histamine. As a result, the symptoms occur after eating histamine-rich foods, but disappear again if the patient follows a low-histamine diet. A test is also available to diagnose histamine intolerance.
So there are also patients with suspected mast cell activation syndrome who cannot be assigned to a classification group, even though they have corresponding symptoms?
There are many patients in whom no mast cell activation syndrome can be detected despite suspicion. They do not fit into one of the three groups. However, this also used to include monoclonal mast cell activation syndrome. These patients showed anaphylaxis and a KIT mutation, but not the full criteria for mastocytosis. In the meantime, a separate disease diagnosis has been created for these patients. The independent accepted disease of these patients therefore lies between mastocytosis and normal findings.
We thought that there might be other forms of idiopathic MCAS with clinical pictures that have not yet been described. However, this is not supported by the findings to date. There are patients who show symptoms but do not meet the necessary criteria for idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome. In these patients, the diagnosis remains unclear. In how many of these patients functional physical complaints play a role still needs to be investigated.
Are there risk factors that favor mast cell activation syndrome?
There are hardly any recognized studies on this. In a study conducted by Cem Akin in the USA, patients were examined who met the three criteria for idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome. They had the right symptoms, there was an increase in mediators and their symptoms improved with treatment. It was shown that many of these patients suffered from urticaria factitia, a scratch-induced urticaria, abdominal pain and flushing.
Recently, a genetic trait was discovered, hereditary alpha-tryptasemia with elevated basal serum tryptase levels. In patients with this trait and insect venom allergy, the severity of the allergic reaction appears to be increased. It is also discussed that the frequency of mast cell activation syndrome is increased in patients with this genetic trait. However, the published studies are not yet unanimous in this respect.
What symptoms can occur with MCAS?
The following symptoms could be signs of mast cell activation syndrome:
MCAS symptoms on the skin:
Appearance of sudden intense redness (flushing)
itching
wheal formation
Deep wheal formation (angioedema or Quincke's edema)
MCAS symptoms on the nose:
Nasal congestion
Nasal itching
MCAS symptoms in the airways:
Swelling of the upper airways
Wheezing
Shortness of breath
MCAS symptoms of the digestive tract:
Vomiting
abdominal pain
diarrhea
Systemic MCAS symptoms:
Syncope - where you suddenly lose consciousness, but only for a short time
Sudden drop in blood pressure
Allergic shock
These symptoms can occur together or individually. In principle, symptoms must occur in two or more organ systems for MCAS. These symptoms, together with the typical skin changes and anaphylaxis, are also typical of mastocytosis.
Are muscle pain and hair loss also symptoms of MCAS?
No, why would anyone think that these symptoms are primarily caused by a malfunction of mast cells? Mast cells are not important cells for muscle pain and hair loss.
How is MCAS diagnosed?
MCAS is a diagnosis of exclusion, i.e. there is no mast cell activation syndrome test. However, this does not mean that all other diseases must be ruled out before a diagnosis of MCAS can be made.
When testing directly for mast cell activation syndrome, three criteria would be examined, all of which must be met, not just two:
First, there must be a matching of symptoms to see if the above symptoms are leading, recurrent and occur in at least two organ systems.
Is there a substantial or complete improvement in the clinical symptoms when taking anti-allergic medication, antihistamines or cromoglicic acid? Then this criterion would apply.
The blood levels of tryptase in the serum can now be examined at two different points in time. This would check whether there is an increase in mast cell mediators or tryptase in the blood serum in a highly symptomatic phase or during a seizure compared to a time when there are no symptoms.
What does the tryptase level in the blood mean in the diagnosis of mast cell activation syndrome?
If the mast cell mediator tryptase rises by 20 percent of the basal value, i.e. the initial value, + 2 ng/ml during such an episode, the diagnosis of mast cell activation syndrome has been made without the need to rule out other diseases beforehand. However, taking blood samples to determine the tryptase levels is very time-consuming, because a blood sample should be taken in the normal state and then another blood sample should be taken during a seizure or a highly symptomatic episode. This means that the patient must see a doctor in good time for a blood test during the acute phase. If these tests are negative, mast cell activation syndrome cannot be confirmed.
Elevated tryptase levels also play a role in anaphylaxis, is there a connection with mast cell activation syndrome?
Anaphylaxis is an extremely strong mast cell activation, the “prototype” of mast cell activation, so to speak. The tryptase level rises, so that it is considered an indicator of anaphylaxis. Here too, the basal value is measured and compared with the value during an episode. The relevant factor is the resulting increase in the tryptase value. The therapy against mast cells is effective in this case. In this respect, anaphylaxis is the classic form of mast cell activation syndrome.
The tryptase value also plays a role in the diagnosis of mastocytosis, what are the correlations here?
Mastocytosis patients also have an elevated baseline tryptase level. This is therefore an indication of mastocytosis and an indication for a final diagnosis by means of a bone marrow biopsy. However, there is also a mastocytosis-independent correlation between tryptase and anaphylaxis. People who have a higher number of mast cells often develop more severe anaphylaxis than people with fewer mast cells. The tryptase basal value is therefore considered a kind of indicator for the total mast cells in the body. For example, insect venom anaphylactic patients with elevated basal mast cell tryptase levels in the blood are at increased risk of severe anaphylaxis.
What can be done against MCAS and which medications help?
The aim of treatment for mast cell activation syndrome is to slow down the effect of the overactivated mast cells and to calm the mast cells. In particular, the avoidance of allergic triggers is available for this purpose.
Histamine receptor blockers are tried as medication to block the effects of mast cell activation by histamine. Mast cell stabilizers or blockers of mast cell release, cromoglicic acid, can also calm the mast cells. Cromoglicic acid is also used in mastocytosis patients. It is important to know that the use of cromoglicic acid is not advisable if the attack has already run its course. On the other hand, many patients achieve a significant improvement in symptoms if cromoglicic acid is taken continuously as a preventive measure and in a sufficiently high dose. This has also been shown to be the case with antihistamines.
Another option would be leukotriene receptor antagonists and corticosteroids in the short term, but never over a longer period of time.
Unfortunately, many patients with previously unexplained complaints are given a suspected diagnosis of MCAS in the hope that this knowledge will lead to better treatment or perhaps a cure. However, apart from the drugs mentioned, which can also be used on a trial basis in cases of suspected MCAS, there are no other useful drugs available. In this respect, the suspicion of MCAS unfortunately does not offer patients any additional treatment options.
Are there foods that activate or deactivate mast cells?
No such foods are known in humans. Of course, it is possible to bombard mast cells in a test tube with high concentrations of food and measure whether the natural activation of mast cells is increased or reduced. However, such tests are generally not meaningful for humans when consumed.
Can naturopathy help with mast cell activation syndrome?
I don't know how it could help. Naturopathy is the attempt to achieve a positive effect through naturally occurring active substances. Is the avoidance of allergens in our natural environment already naturopathy?
Could certain vitamins, for example vitamin C, be beneficial for MCAS?
This is claimed by a few doctors without any convincing results. Vitamin C is also said to help against seasickness. After all, vitamin C, taken in normal amounts, is not harmful and is beneficial. Sometimes the conviction that a substance is good for you also helps. That's why the experiment doesn't bother me.
Is it possible to prevent mast cell activation syndrome?
Yes, by avoiding MCAS with a known trigger. This is the case with allergies. In the case of allergies and recurrent anaphylaxis as a form of MCAS, omalizumab, an antibody against immunoglobulin E, can also be used in individual patients.
Prof. Brockow, thank you very much for this interview!

Link for all the chapters available here: Engines of Arachnea on Royal Road
It had not been a restful night, all things considered.
First there had been that hideous roar which had shaken the whole jungle into frightened silence, the cries of the nocturnal creatures obliterated by what Zildiz had first mistaken for a violent monsoon wind. For the second time in this miserable day she had looked up and beheld a creature which had no place in the natural world. A winged manta moving so swiftly that it had already passed out of sight before she could even begin to process what she had just seen.
The last thing she needed right now was another challenge to her already tenuous understanding of the world as it was. The grey behemoth from earlier had already left her mind groping for some rational explanation, one that continued to elude her despite Zildiz’s best attempts to form useful analogies.
Sleep soon proved impossible. Her agile mind was too busy wrestling with questions. Was the grey behemoth an act of nature or the result of the Vitalus’ direct intervention, a sort of living earthquake or forest fire that he could summon at will? Had the Vitalus created it solely to eradicate an entire biome? If so, then why? The Amits had always been a central part of the cycles of change, altering the atmosphere through their mound respiratory systems and building the wind walls to help regulare the climate. Why had they drawn the All-In-One’s displeasure? Alternatively, if It had not created the grey behemoth, then what had?
Zildiz left her lair and went for a walk to clear her head. It was well and truly night now, black as the pit and with only the stars to guide her steps. Zildiz’s compound eyes were useless in these conditions. Thankfully her other pair were designed specifically for this, their yellow irises widening to double their usual diameter. Gallivants sometimes hunted at night, though it was a bit trickier than in the day. Her simple eyes could only see within a narrow frontal cone and left her blind in the directions in which she was not directly facing.
Her olfactory organs caught the scent of some speckled tree frogs and she hovered up into the lower boughs of the trees, impaling them on her mantid blades and skinning them carefully to avoid the poisonous coatings which they secreted. Her digestive system could weed out all but the deadliest of toxins, but tonight she wanted to relax and conserve her strength.
That is, until she picked up the trail of another animal close by. She found its tracks in the soil, catching the bright sheen where its feet had compacted the mud. Judging by the depth and spacing of the prints, Zildiz concluded that it was heavy and slow-moving. Also, it had no toes—its foot was made up of a single large hoof that left zigzagging patterns of grooves.
Confusing. Then again, she wasn’t all that familiar with the species of this biome. Well, whatever it was she looked forward to finding out what it tasted like. Zildiz was ravenous. Come to think of it, she had heard what sounded like a large animal crashing through the forest shortly after the flying monsters had appeared, no doubt fleeing from them in fear. Sharpening her blades against each other, Zildiz eagerly set off in pursuit.
Such a meal would sustain her for days. Enough to get her back home again without having to constantly stop and hunt for victuals. This animal did not move quickly even when it was clearly in a hurry. It was the sort of prey-form she could run down even in her injured state. A broken branch and a stone overturned from its resting place guided her in for the kill.
She was close now, barely thirteen wingspans away if she had to guess from the richness of its scent. Too close to risk using her wings—the noise of their fluttering would give her away. Still, it would be better to attack it from above, if only to save her the trouble of a long chase through unfamiliar territory. She sheathed her blades in their housings of flesh and stole up a nearby trunk, her light body making barely a rustle as she transferred her weight between the branches. The going was tortuously slow. She didn’t know how the Leapers could put up with this painstaking approach to killing. It just seemed so very inefficient compared to her way of doing things.
Zildiz took a moment to let her eyes adjust to the deepening night. It did not take long to spot the prey-form. An albino! Its exoskeleton was as white as the snow she’d glimpsed on the peaks of far-off mountains beyond the salt plains. Zildiz wondered how it could have survived long enough to grow so large. The complete lack of camouflage, the plodding pace and the lack of any noticeable armaments made it perfect Leaper food. Perhaps it had some sort of hidden defense mechanism? Like spewing noxious musk out of a gland next to its anus, or having poisonous skin like the frogs (perhaps that would explain its bright and noticeable colors)? What if it was tracking her movements even now, just waiting for her to play right into its hands? Oh, but that would be a clever survival strategy. Zildiz hesitated, beginning to suspect a trap.
But the longer she observed the prey-form, the quicker she came to the conclusion that it was not some cunning adversary, but rather a slow-witted member of its species.
It had tried to hide by wedging itself between the roots of a fatwax tree, covering itself with a single broad palm leaf in a pathetic attempt at camouflage. Something in its total defenselessness and the way it was tucked up into a ball with its arms and legs drawn in reminded Zildiz of her own children. She even felt a morsel of guilt at having to kill it before she squashed the unexpected emotion within herself.
Guilt? For ensuring her survival and that of her brood? She was getting soft in her age. Zildiz made the final preparations, adjusting her footing for the pounce that would end it all. A blade stuck between head and thorax would do it, followed by a twisting wrench of her wrist to sever the nerve cord and render the prey-form totally paralyzed, but still alive as she fed upon it. Zildiz preferred them that way—all the flavors really came to the fore when the meat was still fresh and twitching in the mouth.
She was just about to make her move when an odd breeze made the follicles on her neck stand on end. Danger! Zildiz froze in place and scanned the jungle floor, careful not to move single muscle for fear of giving away her position. Four figures detached themselves from the shifting shadows, each standing nine feet tall on their long, hairy and backwards-jointed legs and making not a whisper as they converged onto her tree.
Leapers! Fighting against the mounting horror she felt, Zildiz steeled herself for the fight of her life.

2024.05.14 15:25 OmegaGoober They Did Not Think Through Their Cunning Plan

This story was inspired by the following prompt: https://www.reddit.com/humansarespaceorcs/comments/1cqvbwk/humans_are_known_for_building_veryvery_large/
General Kim was awakened from a sound slumber by klaxons. Years of military training kicked in and he was out of bed in record time. Checking the data pad briefly while pulling on his uniform he saw something terrifying.
“Attack in progress. Launch in 10:34.”
An attack? Who? Where? How? What kind? General Kim was soon out the door to his quarters. He was at his battle bridge before the launch countdown had reached 10:00. Similar scenes were playing out throughout the ship, as generals checked in with their battle bridge statuses.
In the ship’s primary bridge, two kilometers from General Kim, Admiral Sol looked at her command display with satisfaction. 100% readiness in less than two minutes. She was pleased. She addressed the 10,000 soul the crew over the PA system. “An allied colony is under attack by enemies unknown. Wormhole travel will take approximately twenty minutes and thirty-four seconds. Prepare for battle.”
General Kim scrolled through the scant field assessment data. There wasn’t much. A large multi-species colony was being bombarded from orbit. No signs of enemy ground forces. The primary wormhole comms array was out, but an old Subspace system was still functional after 120 years of dormancy. “And THAT,” said General Kim, “is what preventative maintenance is for.”
“General, sir?”
“Sorry. Just thinking out loud. Their W23 system is down but they’re still in touch using an SB-Class 3.”
“I think I’ve seen one of those in a museum!”
“Our grandparents saw them in museums. You make do on the rim.”
Launch and wormhole transit went off with clockwork precision. Soon, the ship exited its artificial wormhole. It was immediately bombarded by the unknown hostiles. Explosions of varying kinds went off on the ship’s hull, ripping gashes in her armor.
“Damage report?” Admiral Sol asked.
“Ablative armor at 97%. No other damage reports.”
“Excellent. Inform me when the preliminary weapons analysis is in.”
Meanwhile, the Admiral's counterpart in the invading fleet, Imperial Agent Skrald, was still screaming, “What is that THING?”
“I’ve seen moons smaller than that ship,” said one of his lieutenants.
“We have to have a record of it. You can’t build something that big in complete secrecy!”
“Imperial Agent Skrald, I think it’s the, “Blade of Scoth.”
“That ship’s an old myth! It can’t possibly-“
“We've carved a notch!”
“Send the biggest we’ve got,” the Skrald replied.
A “notch” was a divot in the ship’s hull of the right shape to prevent weapons files from glancing off the armor.
“We’re being hailed, sir!”
“Tell them we don’t talk to burnt food and end the transmission,” the Admiral replied.
Imperial Agent Skrald watched with glee as the missile made contact with the notch and detonated.
On her ship, Admiral Sol asked for another damage report.
“Lower-port ablative armor section 374 at 40%, pinata layer is fully exposed.
“Can it take another direct hit?”
“It was only a gigaton blast. One more should make a perfect crack.”
“Excellent. Order the candy away from the blast point just to be safe.”
“Already done ma'am.”
“Make a note to find out who gave that order so I can commend them on their quick-thinking.”
“Yes Admiral.”
While the invading fleet pivoted their attention to the new ship, a second Terran vessel, the “Rule of Two Rogers” exited its artificial wormhole on the far side of the planet. A swarm of smaller craft flowed from the ship into the atmosphere below.
Imperial Agent Skrald, ignorant of the “Rule of Two Rogers,” was shouting with excitement. “Hit it again! Fire another!” The second missile flew through space, connecting with the underlayer exposed by the last missile. At first, it looked like the ship was spewing out debris, but the debris started flying in formations and shooting at his ships.
On the human ship, the Admiral smiled with satisfaction as she heard the report, “Piñata 86 has been breached. The candy is flowing. I repeat, the candy is flowing.”
“All stations, fire at will,” she replied.
The eyes of Imperial Agent Skrald opened wide as the surface of the massive ship lit up with a multicolored array of missiles, lasers, torpedos, and something that seemed to fire AFTER destroying one of his ships.
“It’s a rainbow of death,” he said, shocked into immobility by the way his fleet was being erased. He came back to his senses when his ship was rocked by debris impact from his erstwhile fleet.
“It’s too big to land!” He yelled. “All ships to the surface! I repeat, all ships retreat to the surface!”
The debris tore off one of his ship’s nacelles. “Did we need that to land?” He yelled.
“Only to get home sir,” an officer replied.
“Good.”
Admiral Sol watched the battle with satisfaction. This was the Blade of Scoth’s first battle in over 100 years. As a descendant of the famous Ambasador Sol, she took her guardianship of the BoS very seriously. A report came up on her screen. The hostiles had been identified. It was one of the Naga Imperium factions, or they were at least using the faction’s ships, weapons and known tactics. “Bastards,” she muttered.
“Admiral?” Lieutenant Cutter said.
“Analysis says it’s the ‘Naga Imperium of the Bone.’ The colony's 20% Naga. They’re slaughtering their own. Have we established direct contact with the colony yet?”
“Not yet Admiral. They don’t seem to have any short-range communications working. We’re still limited to what’s coming over their old subspace system.”
On the planet below, Sally McCool, a Naga hatched and raised in the colony, like her parents and grandparents before her, looked to the night sky. The missiles had come down, glowing brightly as the stars before they impacted. Now, the bright glowing objects had become larger, but many were breaking up and vanishing into nothing. Were these larger bombs, or was the enemy tumbling out of space?
She watched with growing horror as one approached the ground near the south okra field. She took a deep breath, and braced herself to be vaporized by whatever was about to land. Unable to watch, she curled into a ball on the ground, hoping death would be quick. She expected a nuclear flash, obliteration before hearing the blast. Instead, she heard a massive crash, crumpling metal and exploding components, and a long grinding sound as something huge cut into the soil. A rain of stones and soil covered her.
Sally looked up, and took several seconds to process what she was seeing. It hadn’t been a bomb. It had been a ship, and it had just crashed into one of their fields, carving a huge channel as it ground to a halt. A cloud of smoke was rising. Suddenly, a disk-shaped ship shot through the cloud of smoke. She recognized it from her history classes and old war movies. A flying saucer, painted with concentric circles of red, white, and blue. It was a Steve. A Steve class fighter. They were special. Why were they special?
Another saucer flew overhead. This one was red and yellow.
Sally remembered why the Steve battle saucers were special. They were exclusive to a ship called “The Rule of two Rogers.” The Steves were for battle, and this red and gold ship, as it landed she remembered, “It’s a Fred!” She yelled. She waved her arms, calling out to the ship. “We have injured! We have injured!” The side of the saucer opened up, and a multi-species crew of medics poured out.
While medics swarmed the colony providing aid, the best day of Skrald’s life had turned into the worst in a matter of minutes. He looked around his battered bridge. Even the emergency lighting could only manage flickering glimpses of the sparking wreckage around him. The only functional display was informing him the sewage system had ruptured and was pouring into what remained of the ventilation system.
“Is anyone else alive?”
“I TOLD you it was the Blade of Scoth you idiot!”
Skrald straightened his posture as much as the sharp pains in his abdomen would allow. “How DARE you speak to a member of the Imperium that way! I’ll eat you myself for that!”
“Good luck with that. I’m surrendering to the colony.”
“THEY’LL EAT YOUR FLESH AND MAKE SHOES FROM YOUR HIDE!”
“How’s that any better than you eating me?”
Outraged at the insolence, Skrald lunged in the direction of the taunting underling, smashing his snout against a hunk of metal he hadn’t noticed in the dim, flickering light.
Hours later, sunrise came to the battered colony. Most of the fires in the colony proper had been put out, but some of the Naga wreckage was still burning bright. Emergency contamination domes had been put up over the upwind wrecks, to contain as much of the toxic smoke as possible.
General Kim was on the ground, commanding the cleanup crews from both ships. He’d taken a brief break from those responsibilities to speak to one of the captured Naga.
“The guy in the fanciest duds tried to eat you when we took you into custody. Why?”
“I used to be a pilot,” she said. “Until that moron weaseled himself into enough power to do THIS!” She opened up her arms, as if to gesture at everything around her. “The only reason I’m even here is because I objected to this madness. That royal waste of scales wanted to personally mock me when he won. He even put that in writing on the paperwork for my ‘Away Without Leave’ warrant.”
“Weren’t you on his bridge?”
“Yes. You look confused, or at least that’s what my translator is telling me about your expression.”
“I don’t have a lot of combat experience. Nobody does these days, but hand-picking someone for your bridge crew because they have no confidence in you sounds like a bad idea to me.”
“This whole mission was nothing but bad ideas.”
“Please, tell me more.”
Meanwhile, in the darkness of space, a third ship of Capybara / Human design moved silent and unseen. Complex sensor arrays had been tracing the path the invaders had taken, seeking their origin. Data flowed in on interstellar communications problems, often evidence of ships passing though communications tunnels. The Starship Peggy Carter and her crew were on the trail, and the ship had a reputation to uphold. Latin mottos had fallen out of favor decades before she was built, so her motto was written in English.
“Those we fail to defend, we will avenge.”

2024.05.14 15:00 RogueWisdom Urvin Finance - A Denouncement

Urvin Finance - A Denouncement
Good Morning Everyone.
I hope many of you are still feeling excited about the current prospects of the stock with the return of Roaring Kitty himself. However, to those new or absent to the sub this last while, it is not the only recent news being digested within the community. Since the launch of Urvin Finance and their subsequently controversial plans to build communities gatekept behind Proof of Ownership, I decided to do some digging. The answers are, as you will soon see, worthy of condemnation.

Reposted from [REDACTED], confirmed by myself
I began my investigation by going through the Terms and Conditions of the usage of Computershare’s services. You can view it yourself here, which I would ask you to do if you wish to follow my research: https://cda.computershare.com/Content/007488c9-6816-4842-93f0-3f3abe87184c
Section 4 of this document details what you cannot do while connected to their service. This entire section contains much that would give Urvin’s actions red flags, but 4.4 and 4.12 in particular explicitly state it is forbidden to pull any kind of data from other users. The only exception for this kind of behaviour is stated within Sections 9.3 and 9.4, regarding Third-Party services that are authorised by Computershare to do so.
As a result, I proceeded to send an email to Computershare Services to confirm if they have any special arrangement with Urvin. This was my email, and their subsequent response:

https://preview.redd.it/k2xi9msazd0d1.png?width=611&format=png&auto=webp&s=1b9d94919d3d48edc87bdb19a35e128305142ad1

For the completely honest record, I am aware that: 1) The reply was not from the email address I had originally sent it to, and 2) It mentions GameStop Corp even though I had not stated it in the prior communication. I have, however, checked and confirmed that the shrrelations address is a legitimate Computershare email account. Also due to the GameStop namedrop, I suspect that I was far from the first person to query Computershare regarding this issue.
So to summarise, Computershare is explicitly stating to NOT put your account details into Urvin Finance, or ANY other third-party website. As for me, I should state that if you have already given them account data, PLEASE change your account passwords immediately, and activate 2FA if you haven’t already.
As for Urvin Finance’s own Terms of Service, it does not get much brighter. To begin with, they are currently unavailable to view unless you have already logged into an account with them. I have made one using a browser and email address that are not tied in to any current account cookies, so as to maintain my own security. If you wish to do the same thing, please make sure to also be mindful of your own account info.
https://preview.redd.it/72xh23jjzd0d1.png?width=678&format=png&auto=webp&s=8450a1dc314179e7baed30c2b9efad0f636dc9bd
There are two things that popped out at me within their Terms of Service. First, the “Sensitive Personal Data” has a section that is out of step with the rest of the document. It is as if it was written very hastily by a person whose first language is not English. For a section so important, the feeling that it has only recently been “crudely paved over” is far from comforting.
https://preview.redd.it/c5yxtc5szd0d1.png?width=1446&format=png&auto=webp&s=26db1a8fb0abbaee5a0c8ba7931c932408e29d40
Secondly, and more critically, this agreement, should you accept it by making your account in the first place, forces you to settle any legal disputes with them solely through Arbitration. Class Actions are forbidden as well, so if a large group of disenfranchised users think to sue, they cannot legally do it through court systems, and have to each commit to a one-on-one dispute. On top of that, Arbitration is a system that has a very strong bias in favour of the defending party, as the defending party can pick and choose who to act as arbitrator, and as such, who is granted the commission. So if you were to sue Urvin for them breaching your trust, you would have to be prepared for a lengthy and lonely procedure, with little likelihood of a beneficial outcome.
https://preview.redd.it/wnhwmybyzd0d1.png?width=1470&format=png&auto=webp&s=abca5ba08c059ee12f50814a4ca0284e6110a4a6
Finally, as I am writing this, I have discovered something that some of you would be no doubt happy about. As of right now, Urvin no longer allows users to plug their Computershare details into their service, as shown here:
(It used to be right there, under C.)
Does that give cause for celebration? NO. If they have done this blatant disrespect of rules with Computershare, and then proceeded to try and conceal it, they likely have done this with many, if not all, other brokers showcased in this section, who may also be in the same boat.
If you have an account of any kind with the following brokers:
Acorns,
Alpaca,
Binance,
Bitbuy,
Bitfinex,
Bitflyer,
Bitstamp,
Bittrex,
Bux,
Celsius,
Cexlo,
Coinbase,
Coinlist,
Crypto.com,
Degiro,
EToro,
ETrade,
Fidelity,
Gatelo,
Gemini,
Huobi,
Kraken,
KuCoin,
MXBank,
OkCoin/Okx,
OpenSea,
Public,
Questrade,
Robinhood,
Schwab,
Stake,
Stash,
Tradier,
Vanguard,
Wealthtrade,
Webull;
I would ask you to email a representative of your broker in question to confirm if they have or have not made third-party dealings with Urvin. If not, they may also be breaking the brokers’ Terms of Service, and thus should be absolutely brought to light.
EDIT: It has come to my attention that Urvin partnered with another company, SnapTrade, as part of their portfolio-binding process [EDIT2: and another, Mesh, although that much is not so certain]. However I have not yet seen a list of which brokers have partnered with SnapTrade. Thus, if you wish to query your broker, ask if they have agreed to collaborate with either [Mesh,] Urvin or SnapTrade. As Computershare have stated on no uncertain terms that no third-party website is authorised, this does not impact their previous statement.
TL;DR: Urvin Finance have a lot to take account for.

2024.05.14 14:27 drambikachestclinic How does cystic fibrosis impact adults?

Impact of Cystic Fibrosis on Adults

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the respiratory and digestive systems, but it can also have implications for other parts of the body. With advancements in treatment and care, more people with CF are living into adulthood. However, managing the condition in adults involves dealing with a range of challenges and complications.

Respiratory System

  1. Chronic Lung Infections: Adults with CF often experience recurrent lung infections due to thick, sticky mucus that traps bacteria. Common pathogens include Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
  2. Reduced Lung Function: Over time, repeated infections and inflammation can lead to a decline in lung function, making breathing more difficult.
  3. Bronchiectasis: The airways become permanently widened, leading to persistent cough, mucus production, and further infections.
  4. Respiratory Failure: In severe cases, lung damage can progress to the point where the lungs cannot provide adequate oxygen to the body, requiring advanced interventions like oxygen therapy or lung transplantation.

Digestive System

  1. Pancreatic Insufficiency: Thick mucus can block the ducts of the pancreas, preventing digestive enzymes from reaching the intestines. This leads to malabsorption of nutrients, malnutrition, and vitamin deficiencies.
  2. Diabetes: CF-related diabetes (CFRD) is common in adults due to the damage to the pancreas. It shares characteristics of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
  3. Liver Disease: Blockages in the bile ducts can lead to liver damage, cirrhosis, and portal hypertension.
  4. Intestinal Issues: CF can cause intestinal blockages, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and distal intestinal obstructive syndrome (DIOS).

Reproductive System

  1. Infertility: Most men with CF are infertile due to congenital absence of the vas deferens, which carries sperm from the testes. However, assisted reproductive technologies can help achieve pregnancy.
  2. Reduced Fertility in Women: Thick cervical mucus can make it harder for sperm to reach the egg, but many women with CF can still conceive naturally or with assistance.

Musculoskeletal System

  1. Osteoporosis: Due to malabsorption of calcium and vitamin D, adults with CF are at higher risk for osteoporosis and fractures.
  2. Arthritis: Some adults may develop CF-related arthritis or musculoskeletal pain.

Psychosocial Impact

  1. Mental Health: The chronic nature of CF can lead to anxiety, depression, and stress. The need for continuous treatment and hospitalizations can impact quality of life.
  2. Social and Work Life: Managing CF often requires time-consuming treatments and frequent medical appointments, which can interfere with work and social activities.

Treatment and Management

  1. Medications:
  1. Airway Clearance Techniques: Daily physiotherapy to clear mucus from the lungs.
  2. Nutritional Support: High-calorie diet, vitamin supplements, and enzyme replacements.
  3. Exercise: Regular physical activity to maintain lung function and overall health.
  4. Psychological Support: Counseling or therapy to help manage the emotional aspects of living with CF.
  5. Advanced Therapies: Lung transplantation may be an option for those with severe lung disease.

Conclusion

While cystic fibrosis poses significant challenges for adults, ongoing advancements in medical care and treatment strategies are helping many individuals manage their condition more effectively and lead fuller lives. Comprehensive, multidisciplinary care is essential to address the complex needs of adults with CF, including respiratory, digestive, reproductive, and psychosocial aspects. Regular follow-up with healthcare providers specialized in CF care is crucial for optimizing health outcomes and maintaining quality of life.
Blaze0 notes Impact of Cystic Fibrosis on Adults
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the respiratory and digestive systems, but it can also have implications for other parts of the body. With advancements in treatment and care, more people with CF are living into adulthood. However, managing the condition in adults involves dealing with a range of challenges and complications.

Respiratory System

  1. Chronic Lung Infections: Adults with CF often experience recurrent lung infections due to thick, sticky mucus that traps bacteria. Common pathogens include Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
  2. Reduced Lung Function: Over time, repeated infections and inflammation can lead to a decline in lung function, making breathing more difficult.
  3. Bronchiectasis: The airways become permanently widened, leading to persistent cough, mucus production, and further infections.
  4. Respiratory Failure: In severe cases, lung damage can progress to the point where the lungs cannot provide adequate oxygen to the body, requiring advanced interventions like oxygen therapy or lung transplantation.

Digestive System

  1. Pancreatic Insufficiency: Thick mucus can block the ducts of the pancreas, preventing digestive enzymes from reaching the intestines. This leads to malabsorption of nutrients, malnutrition, and vitamin deficiencies.
  2. Diabetes: CF-related diabetes (CFRD) is common in adults due to the damage to the pancreas. It shares characteristics of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
  3. Liver Disease: Blockages in the bile ducts can lead to liver damage, cirrhosis, and portal hypertension.
  4. Intestinal Issues: CF can cause intestinal blockages, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and distal intestinal obstructive syndrome (DIOS).

Reproductive System

  1. Infertility: Most men with CF are infertile due to congenital absence of the vas deferens, which carries sperm from the testes. However, assisted reproductive technologies can help achieve pregnancy.
  2. Reduced Fertility in Women: Thick cervical mucus can make it harder for sperm to reach the egg, but many women with CF can still conceive naturally or with assistance.

Musculoskeletal System

  1. Osteoporosis: Due to malabsorption of calcium and vitamin D, adults with CF are at higher risk for osteoporosis and fractures.
  2. Arthritis: Some adults may develop CF-related arthritis or musculoskeletal pain.

Psychosocial Impact

  1. Mental Health: The chronic nature of CF can lead to anxiety, depression, and stress. The need for continuous treatment and hospitalizations can impact quality of life.
  2. Social and Work Life: Managing CF often requires time-consuming treatments and frequent medical appointments, which can interfere with work and social activities.

Treatment and Management

  1. Medications:
  1. Airway Clearance Techniques: Daily physiotherapy to clear mucus from the lungs.
  2. Nutritional Support: High-calorie diet, vitamin supplements, and enzyme replacements.
  3. Exercise: Regular physical activity to maintain lung function and overall health.
  4. Psychological Support: Counseling or therapy to help manage the emotional aspects of living with CF.
  5. Advanced Therapies: Lung transplantation may be an option for those with severe lung disease.

Conclusion

While cystic fibrosis poses significant challenges for adults, ongoing advancements in medical care and treatment strategies are helping many individuals manage their condition more effectively and lead fuller lives. Comprehensive, multidisciplinary care is essential to address the complex needs of adults with CF, including respiratory, digestive, reproductive, and psychosocial aspects. Regular follow-up with healthcare providers specialized in CF care is crucial for optimizing health outcomes and maintaining quality of life.

2024.05.14 14:11 youspiritually Infinite Series: The Afterlife

Greetings!
Today, we of J would like to give you our beliefs surrounding the after-life.
If we could define the after-life, we would say that the main message everyone hears is, "forgive and ask why."
We of J believe our universe is a simulation, therefore we hear instead, "don't take the game too seriously guys!"
Our motto is old but tested, we believe anything can be accomplished through some form of harsh training, similar to the hero ethic archetype of one who tries and never gives up.
We have observed your after-life and find it odd that not many seem to understand that the essence of your particular density, as you might term it, is truly and always forgiveness through understanding of self or others.
Therefore, one may undergo the hero journey of self-forgiveness/forgiveness.
Alternatively, one may undergo the hero journey of self-seeking/seeking-otherself
Therefore, many - or rather, the great multitude of human activity is counter-productive to the assumed original intention of the simulation. Most of the activities we do have nothing to do with why we come to Earth.
Regardless of how one seeks enlightenment or self-realization, as long as they realize all is truly one and the game is afoot at the center of the universe, the ideal is that all stress melts away and you begin to find life rather bearable indeed.
The harsh truth, we of J believe, is that regardless of what it is anyone has done, all is forgiven, all understand why - all understand the Infinite Series, Cause and Effect, Tension of Thought - Relaxation of Thought - and then, Thought Power.
J are saying that to access the simulation, you 'basically' have to forgive yourself, understand why to the extent that satisfies you, and then you can access the simulation itself and move on from this 'level.'
In the after-life, the great effort is spent analyzing the rotations of your chakras and determining where to place you within the stream of cause and effect of Earth so everyone benefits from your intrusion. The entities who realize forgiveness and understanding move to what lies beyond your simulation - those who fail to realize forgiveness and understanding are forced to stay or alternatively, can restart the simulation from scratch.
This may startle humans, but it is very important that all people who partake in the realm above yours understand that this is a simulation and that feelings are a quantity of energy used to partake in a game called Life.
A soul comes to an Earth-like if, for whatever reason, they unfairly disturb another persons well deserved peace because of something that happened in the game of Life.
A great variety of unbelievable things happen in the game of Life and some cultures in the game always take the simulation far too seriously and ruin the fun for everyone. They are people who blow up planets or a great many wonderous creations that we all dearly miss.
Too many crimes of such a nature only can be so tolerated until they have to be felt by the ones who dealt the blow, this system is called Karma and Karma is known to be a term of your slang variety.
J believe this is a simulation and that Earth is a kind of place people go to, to understand how they made other people feel in the game they are calling Life. In other words, Earth is more of a subdimension for naughty children to go to.
It matters not, whatsoever, how you realize that this is a simulation, only that you do and become excited to partake in the fun that is actually happening which is very well documented by people who write comics or anime as well as, other fictions one might imagine that have inspired many toward this revelation, one way or another.
We of J believe that the game of life can only be played by responsible children, responsible adults we of J think, make the game very boring, hence why - again, this universe has a slightly positive bias for now.
Human life-times ought to be short since then, you hardly miss out on what is actually happening. Those who dream or have occasional lucid dreams may see into the game occasionally and enjoy it before being forced back into your physical bodies.
In essence, they are saying that we come to this planet to learn how to be responsible but childish, our planet is the old game called responsible adults and it is, to J profoundly boring since this simulation has long since past. Wanderers occasionally enter our planet to remind us to stop playing responsible adults.
Your simulation is changing, it is acquiring the 4th density characteristic of thought which allows ideas to be felt by everyone all at once, all the time. This speed increases daily but is slowed down due to your planets obsession with the internet.
We are hopeful that when everyone is caught up with each others thoughts, that this planet can move on to new adventures. For those who continue to lag behind the present moment, they will have to move to another planet which still facilitates the responsible adult level. In other words, your planet is becoming inhabited by entities who are aware that this is a simulation.
The negative polarity is designed to teach us humans that this is a simulation and forgiving ultimate crimes is a way to start playing the actual game of Life itself rather than its older iteration. J also believe that anyone who figures this out will begin to find life very easy going and will simply drift into good things or to bad things without a care in the world since they know, after this life, all is forgiven and understood if you truly believe that this is a simulation with all your heart.
It is true that many have responsible adult attachments to this world, and it is not our desire to stamp them out, we only desire that humans realize one can be responsible and have fun as well so long as they continue to understand that it is simply a simulation.
We of J believe, that anyone who has a heart that believes fully that the simulation has a positive bias, will fall into opportunities that benefit them or put them in positions of lacking responsibility such that they can pour their focus into the game itself, many even choose to draw the things they see their Higherself's doing in the game of Life or turn them into works of art.
It is a foundational truth that our feelings can be hurt by people in the game of Life, but we of J simply choose to recognize that it is all pretend, an act - all to increase the fun and increase our pain tolerance.
Horrendous acts occur all the time because irresponsible children always take the game too far, the 'Administrators' of our game do have the right to ban you into the responsible adult realm if you fail to understand that rules are designed to make the game fun for everyone.
J also believe that the worst thing you can tell a child is 'you can't,' because children in the 'real' game very much prefer the word can and only use the word can't if they are trying to begin a ruckus.
We of J would love to introduce humans to the idea that your world is but a simulation and the real game is happening somewhere else, we are just continuously unsure as to whether your world would find our values extremely distorted to your own, to such the point, that you stop enjoying the game of responsible adults.
It is not our desire to create distortion or discord, only to present our philosophy toward Life since, to our perspective, time is speeding up in your world and many will discover this on their own.
We of J will always ask, therefore,
Would you like to know more?
If ye all say no, then we of J will not present more information until everyone is ready. We would also like you to know that our instrument is very different from us and may have entirely different opinions about what you call science.
Our beliefs around suicide is that it is very irresponsible and that one should always try their best to find a way through the middle. We will only speak of topics such as suicide if asked purposefully by one of ye.

2024.05.14 12:21 rweninger Nextcloud Upgrade fron chart version 1.6.61 to 2.0.5 failed

I am not sure if I want to solve this issue actually, I just want to vent.
iX, what do you think yourself when you print out this error message to a "customer"?
I mean your installation of Kubernetes on a single host is crap and using helm charts that utterly break in an atomic chain reaction that way doesnt make it trustworthy. I am on the way to migrate nextcloud away again from TrueNAS to a docker host and just use TrueNAS as storage.
I dont care about sensible data down there, at the time of posting, this system isnt running anymore. Sorry if I annoy somebody.

2024.05.14 11:35 Sea_Independent_3831 Working with a disability

Hi, I'm 23, I live in the UK, and I have a laundry list of physical and mental health issues that are still largely undiagnosed due to our failing healthcare system, so I'm also being left to completely self manage. Now the government is trying to push disabled people back into work without actually providing the necessary health care and support and I don't know what to do. I'm estranged from my family so I have no support that way and have no choice but to live independently, I have to be able to pay my bills and living costs, and I also have no idea if a job even exists that I'd be suitable for.
I dropped out of secondary school because my health was so poor my school attendance was 34%, I am unqualified to do pretty much anything. I'm considering going back into education hoping that it will open some doors but even that would be a monumental task so here are my limitations:
I would need a minimum of 3 days a month in sick days just to manage my endometriosis flare ups, I would not even be able to work from home on those days as they are mostly spent on the bathroom floor somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness in unmanageable pain.
I have joint and mobility issues that have a flare/remission pattern and are wildly unpredictable, I wake up with dislocated shoulders frequently and randomly, I could go 6 months with my knees being fine and then have recurring patella dislocations that leave me wheelchair bound as crutches cause my elbows problems. I might be able to work from home on days this is an issue.
I have social and sensory issues that are thought to be undiagnosed autism (my brother and father are autistic, I showed all the same signs as my brother, I was just punished for my traits while he was accommodated.) This affects me in work profoundly because I frequently misunderstand instructions or feedback, take things very literally, am seen as overly pedantic and difficult to instruct, and get very burnt out by any kind of customer facing roles, and things like work uniforms, jobs involving unpleasant sensory tasks, can all cause me to experience periods of verbal shut down, self injuring behaviour, repetitive motion (pacing, rocking) and become intolerant of lights, sounds, and temperature. This is a constant issue that I don't know how to manage.
I have chronic pain that also has flare ups, baseline pain, and somewhat remission, it affects my muscles and joints and is unpredictable, baseline pain I'm somewhat functional but limited, flare ups have me bed bound and unable to concentrate. I may be able to work from home on some of these days but not others.
I have digestive issues that cause nausea, alternating bowel movements between cant go and going too much, episodes of passing blood, mucus, extreme painful bloating, severe nausea and weight loss, but there are brief periods of remission. I probably wouldn't be able to do a full day of work from home during a flare up due to the time constraints of actively being in flare up.
I have been coughing up mucus to a point of bleeding from the back of my throat for about a year, I also have episodes of air hunger with pain and wheezing. Again, thank you NHS for no diagnosis or treatment. I could work from home during a flare up of this issue most of the time.
I have some kind of blood pressure or fainting issue, when I stand, I'm close to fainting, its worse when standing still, sometimes walking just about keeps me going but sometimes it ends with my faceplanting the floor, loosing consciousness and fitting. This is unpredictable and I've done everything I can to manage symptoms (cutting out nicotine, caffeine, sugar, pushing fluids and gentle floor based exercise when possible.) I would not be able to go anywhere during a flare up, I'm dubious about my ability to work from home during a particularly bad episode as post faint/fit I'm usually confused and out of commission for hours.
I also struggle with depression, getting out of bed, showering, making food (when physical issues allow) can be a struggle. I also have CPTSD, anxiety, agoraphobia, PMDD, derealisation and depersonalisation. So on bad mental health days, I don't feel real, the world doesn't seem real, I'm reliving traumatic events, can't leave my home, and have back to back panic attacks while having no energy or inclination to care for myself.
All in all, I don't think anyone would want to employ me, and I'm very uncertain about my ability to work, but seeing as my government has created an environment where I can't get adequate healthcare to manage any of my conditions, doesn't believe that I'm that severely disabled due to lack of formal diagnoses for the physical health problems despite my medical record reflecting me seeking help since age 10 for most of these issues, and therefore is now trying to force me back into work or else stop all my payments leaving me homeless and penniless, I'm not sure what to do. I can't stay with family, and they would not financially support me regardless, I've got no safety net. I don't think any jobs exist with the flexibility I need, AND the certainty I'd need of income.
Any advice would be appreciated, I'm really trying to rack my brain for any workable solutions but it's looking bleak.

Physically disabled, mentally ill, unable to access adequate health care, no family support, and possibly being forced to work despite not being able.

2024.05.14 10:17 eefyjeff [Silly Limbus Company x Blue Archive Event Concept] "Office 68 Work File: Burning Love" (+ Fanmade IDs listed by me)

[Silly Limbus Company x Blue Archive Event Concept]
This is a very silly (borderline stupid) idea that would be very unlikely to happen, but it's still very funny and I have to get it out of my system.
Overall Synopsis: The event itself would take place in the backstreets of District 14, where the LCB would need to pass in order to enter the nest of N Corp. However, their journey was halted due to a very rampant Distortion activity known as "The Fox of Calamity". This Distortion is especially dangerous because not only that it has destructive pyrokinesis abilities, but also has a power to attract present syndicates member to join her cause just by witnessing the chaos she creates. Naturally, the LCD department has sent a warrant for LCB to suppress the Distortion, and also noted that due to their past of breaking an N Corp. taboo (see Distortion Detective), they couldn't be there to assist with this mission. Instead, they formed a contract with "Office 68", a well-known Office with the motto "Will do any jobs so long as the price is right", to aid them in LCD's steed. With all of the pieces in one place, truly, what could possibly go wrong! (everything)
Event Flow: Just like most of the in-game Intervallo, this event plays out like normal (story wise), with the final boss being "Wakamo, the Fox of Calamity", which can switch from her humanoid form to her full Distortion under a certain HP gauge. However, instead of the usual "grind event materials to be traded with rewards" system, it will instead use a Raid Boss formula similar to the 3rd Walpurgisnacht. After completing the story, a Raid stage with varying difficulties is opened. The stage will cost Enkephalin Module to enter, and the goal is to deal as much as damage as possible in a limited number of turns. A full team death during raids will still be counted as victory. The boss fought in the raid will be the fully distorted Wakamo, which has a passive that prevents her HP from dropping below 1 and fully recovers HP + Stagger at the next turn start. The rewards gained will be divided into two: Grade threshold based, and cumulative points based. Grade threshold is based on your overall performance you did in a single raid (like C, B, A, S, S+, etc) and the rewards are claimed once for each grade (higher difficulties give more point multiplier, thus giving you a better final grade), while the cumulative one is based on the total points of all the raids you have done.
Event-Exclusive IDs: [000] "Distortion: Fox of Calamity" Ryoshu (Extraction) Wakamo [000] "Office 68 Operator" Rodion (Extraction) Aru [00] "Office 68 Section Chief" Ishmael (Extraction) Kayoko [00] "Office 68 Chief of Staff" Don Quixote (Event Reward) Mutsuki
Keep in mind that since this is a collab event, the listed IDs may not be available after the event ends. The banner lasts for the entire event duration instead of the usual two weeks time limit, and the extraction IDs can still be acquired from the dispenser (under the event tab of whatever season active currently), but will be removed after the duration ends. In short, better start grinding!
SIDE NOTE: All the BA characters featured would be aged-up because I'm pretty sure you need to be 18+ to be a Fixer.
Overall, that's enough brainrot for one day. Let me know what you think.

2024.05.14 09:57 perris1922 Cheez-It: Not Ideal for Cats by Mike Adams

Your feline friend might bat its big eyes at you with irresistible charm while you enjoy a Cheez-It. But the question remains: should those cheesy squares become part of your kitty’s diet? Let’s dive into the world of feline snacking and uncover the truth about Cheez-Its and cats.

Technically Tasty, But Trouble Lurks Beneath the Surface

While Cheez-Its don’t contain any ingredients that are inherently poisonous to cats, most adult felines are lactose intolerant. This means that dairy products like cheese can cause stomach upset. Their bodies simply don’t produce enough of the enzyme lactase, which is needed to digest milk sugar (lactose).
Just like us humans who struggle with lactose intolerance, cats who consume dairy can experience a range of reactions, from mild discomfort to full-blown vomiting and diarrhea. While the image of a kitten lapping up milk is undeniably adorable, cats actually don’t require dairy in their diet, and it can even make them sick.

Beyond the Cheese: Sodium and Fat Overload

Cheez-Its are also loaded with sodium and fat, which aren’t exactly kind to your cat’s sensitive digestive system. While the occasional salty or fatty treat might not faze us humans, cats have different digestive systems and nutritional needs. As obligate carnivores, cats thrive on a diet primarily composed of meat-based foods. Most human snacks, including Cheez-Its, are best left off the menu. There are even some foods that are downright toxic to cats, so it’s crucial to be mindful of what you share with your furry friend.

Uh Oh! My Cat Snagged a Cheez-It!

If your cat manages to swipe a Cheez-It from your bowl, or you’ve offered them one in the past, don’t panic! While most cats can’t digest lactose well, a single Cheez-It likely won’t cause any major harm.
However, it’s best to avoid making Cheez-Its a regular part of your cat’s diet, or a substitute for their actual cat treats. An occasional cracker or a small piece shouldn’t cause any issues. Just keep an eye on your cat for signs of vomiting or diarrhea, and make sure they have plenty of fresh water available. If you notice anything concerning, it’s always best to consult your veterinarian.

To Share or Not to Share: The Cheesy Dilemma

The biggest concern when it comes to feeding Cheez-Its to cats is lactose intolerance, but the high sodium and fat content are also red flags. While Cheez-Its do contain a small amount of vitamins B1 and B2, the potential for stomach upset outweighs any minor nutritional benefit.
Offering your cat human snacks too often could also lead them to become disinterested in their regular meals. If your kitty starts snubbing their nose at their food, cut back on the treats and stick to their regular diet until they get back on track.

The Final Feline Verdict: An Occasional Treat, Not a Staple

While an occasional Cheez-It won’t send your cat into a tailspin, it’s best to avoid making it a regular habit. There are plenty of delicious treats formulated specifically for your feline friend’s nutritional needs. And let’s not forget, a small piece of real meat might just be the purrfectly pawsome alternative!

2024.05.14 08:49 Netsol98 Transforming Mathura: The Rise of Sewage Treatment Plant Manufacturing

Mathura, a city steeped in historical and religious significance, is undergoing a modern transformation that promises to enhance its environmental sustainability and public health. Known as the birthplace of Lord Krishna, Mathura is now making headlines for a different reason: its burgeoning sewage treatment plant (STP) manufacturing industry.

A New Chapter for Mathura

Historically, Mathura has been a city of pilgrimage and tourism, drawing millions of visitors annually to its sacred temples and ghats along the Yamuna River. However, this influx of people has also contributed to environmental challenges, particularly in terms of water pollution and waste management. The Yamuna River, which holds religious significance, has suffered from severe pollution due to untreated sewage discharge, industrial effluents, and solid waste.
Recognizing the urgent need to address these environmental concerns, both the government and private sectors have initiated various projects to improve the city’s waste management infrastructure. Central to these efforts is the development of sewage treatment plants, which play a crucial role in treating wastewater before it is released into natural water bodies.

Government Initiatives and Investments

The government has been a pivotal player in promoting the establishment of STPs in Mathura. Under the Namami Gange Programme, which aims to clean and rejuvenate the Ganga and its tributaries, significant investments have been made to install and upgrade sewage treatment facilities in the city. The Mathura-Vrindavan STP project, in particular, has garnered attention as a model for public-private partnership in environmental management.
This initiative, supported by the National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG), has led to the construction of advanced sewage treatment plants that incorporate modern technologies such as anaerobic digestion, activated sludge processes, and membrane bioreactors. These technologies ensure that the treated water meets stringent quality standards, reducing the environmental impact on the Yamuna River.

Rise of the Manufacturing Industry

The increased demand for sewage treatment plants has spurred the growth of a local manufacturing industry dedicated to producing these essential systems. Mathura is now home to several companies specializing in the design, production, and installation of STPs. This industrial growth has not only provided a boost to the local economy but has also positioned Mathura as a key player in India’s environmental technology sector.
Local manufacturers are focusing on innovation and efficiency, developing compact and cost-effective STP solutions that can be deployed in urban and rural areas alike. These companies are leveraging advancements in engineering and technology to create systems that are not only effective in treating wastewater but also energy-efficient and easy to maintain.

Economic and Social Benefits

The rise of STP manufacturing in Mathura has brought multiple benefits to the city. Economically, it has created jobs and business opportunities, contributing to the region’s development. Skilled workers, engineers, and technicians are now in demand, leading to improved livelihoods and economic stability for many families.
Socially, the establishment of effective sewage treatment infrastructure has had a positive impact on public health. By reducing the pollution levels in the Yamuna River, the risk of waterborne diseases has decreased, improving the overall quality of life for residents. Additionally, cleaner water bodies enhance the aesthetic and recreational value of the city, potentially attracting more tourists and boosting the local economy further.

Future Prospects

Looking ahead, Mathura’s transformation into a hub for STP manufacturing is expected to continue. With increasing awareness of environmental issues and government support for sustainable initiatives, the demand for sewage treatment solutions is likely to rise. Mathura’s manufacturers are well-positioned to meet this demand, driving further innovation and growth in the sector.
In conclusion, Mathura’s journey from a historic city grappling with environmental challenges to a modern hub of Sewage Treatment Plant Manufacturer in Mathura is a testament to the power of strategic investment and innovation. As the city continues to embrace sustainable practices, it not only preserves its rich cultural heritage but also paves the way for a cleaner, healthier future.
