What a cracker of a question!

Short answer, yes.

Long answer, what sorts of side effects happen as a result of said medication? I don’t think there’s a single medication or even supplement out there that doesn’t have some sort of side effect (e.g., ibuprofen can cause gut bleeding, iron supplements can lead to constipation, grapefruit can screw with all sorts of medications), so balancing the cost benefit ratio is important.

The problem comes is the suggestion of travelling to destination X (in your case, the Bahamas) doesn’t just pop up out of thin air - friends may have travelled there recently, perhaps there has been a recent advertising push, etc.

Another family member looking up some destinations to travel, then speaking with you later - same external IP of the home wifi being reported, bam you get advertised the destinations they looked at the most.

Choosing a “random” topic again also doesn’t come out of thin air.

As other comments have said, deal with the origin of the pain first, THEN…

If it’s bad enough to take meds but not too bad, then one 500mg paracetamol and 200mg ibuprofen (my go to for pain). The paracetamol will generally be one with some caffeine in it.

If it’s a BAD headache, then 900mg aspirin.

I do have a headache hat which is kept in the fridge.

That is literally how you are supposed to play Dixit.

Megan MacKenzie, the more junior author (at the time a senior lecturer), received calls threatening her with consequences for her career.

Why only mention the more junior author? Did the senior authors not get targeted? Did they receive different threats? There’s definitely an implication here and I’d rather not assume… :/

And how “funny” - when “outed” (and were they?) for being biased, the reaction was to be an absolute turd? Ugh.

Don’t get into stranger’s cars, and don’t give out your real name or number or address on the internet.

Now you do most of these things when you call an uber. 😅

For anyone worried about this, you can ask for a bite block.

Get a proper sleep study, see an ENT and sleep physician, if you are overweight lose some, sleep on your side.

Snoring is produced by soft tissues vibrating when they flop where they shouldn’t (i.e., blocking airway).

It is thus indicative of reduced airflow, which can result in negative health outcomes - including yes, brain damage. The full condition is called obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), but there are other conditions like upper airway resistive syndrome.

From the pictures I see online, it looks like an over the counter mandibular advancement splint (MAS). MAS are used for management of OSA, but only per the prescription of a sleep physician, who needs the results from a sleep study as well as an examination of the patient.

Not all OSA sufferers will tolerate let alone benefit from a MAS. There are drawbacks and side effects with a MAS that may not be discussed with all patients, let alone purchasers of an OTC product.

I have a custom fitted one, and even as someone in the industry, I find there are certainly limitations to it.

Bicycles stand out too much in Australia. If it’s unique and cool, people will fuck with it. Furthermore, it’s far easier to physically pick up a bike and chuck it in the back of a van than a car, and not very many people are going to interrupt a thief using bolt cutters, particularly if they’re wearing hi-vis.

So you’re left with needing angle grinder resistant locks, with none of the portable ones being long enough to fasten around the body and any fixed stand so you have to get creative about where you park, and even then somebody might just unbolt the fixed point. Creative means it might be away from other bikes and or cameras, reducing security.

Then there’s no clearly visible registration so even if you report a lost bike, nobody will easily be able to tell if the one being ridden by is yours or someone else’s…

Eliminate theft and you’re still left with vandals, and there are a LOT of destructive people with plenty of time on their hands…

Thanks!

Which eSIM do you buy for the EU?

Putting aside whether it’s normal for you to be experiencing aging so early*, you should still see another PCP because they didn’t manage your actual concern: “I am experiencing issues functioning day to day life, and would like a plan to manage this”.

It would have been one thing if the doctor had said “yup, just you, so let’s get you into an assisted living arrangement now”, or “I’m fairly certain this is just your shitty genes, but to rule out anything else, let’s send you for X tests and see the Y specialist”.

From your post, it doesn’t sound like that was the case.

*The joke goes that after thirty you don’t get injured, you get permanent disabilities.

Not sure how much it will bother you but I’m certain they’ll be found on AliExpress and eBay.

Maybe even a dollar store, it seems the sort of thing they’d carry.

The original link I sent is an automotive store, the kind that sells oil and wipers and towball accessories. Maybe you have something like that near you?

Got a picture?

Oh I’m sure you’ll find similar products elsewhere. It was just the first listing that came up for me for whistle key finder.

Weird I’m in nordvpn in Australia and no issue.

Whistle and it beeps… Apparently.

Sounds like it shouldn’t be considered legal for onroad use there. :/

This reminded me that ages before the era of connectivity, there existed these: https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Shop-our-Full-Range-by-Brand-at-Autobarn/Mdi/MDI-Whistle-Key-Finder---FZ-WKF/p/AC40602?srsltid=AfmBOoqqJ-QOeARB80pErKGSuJRtyjsPiMNpZdeKClSKn8s7IIHhfBfr

I never got one, but I wonder how effective they might be. I also can’t whistle for shit, so…

Suspect Sonarr users didn’t have any issues, as it wouldn’t have gone looking for an episode 9.
