Hey I’m listening to the life story of Gunpei Yokoi again, and this quote stuck with me. I think the fact that something so small can have such a lifesaving effect is really powerful. Does anyone have a link to this source? I’d like to know it in the original Japanese.
Thanks in advance, and if anyone here is a part of the dykg team, keep up the good work!
The sweet potato yesterday reminded me of this carrot from a few years ago, I can’t put my finger on why.
I’ve seen the question before, but I work a warehouse job with lots of opportunities for catches and tears and friction. I want to look a little nicer and stay cooler, but I don’t have the most money, so I’m terrified of spending $35 on something that will be shredded if I squeeze between stacks of material or something, or I’ll be constantly petrified of getting forklift grease on. Any recommendations? Specific links to products you’ve had success with would be a godsend.
Hey all, I picked up this Costco Kimchi for one meal, and in my journey to finish the whole jug, I’ve become quite fond of it. So with that in mind, I want to make some of my own. When I finish this container, would I be well suited to reuse it and the leftover juice as a starter, or would that be a waste of time? I’m pretty new to fermentation, so I’m not very well versed in these things.
Well first off check out the new machine, w found it at an estate sale, and I’m pretty excited about it.
Second and more importantly, how concerning is the bags sticking out of the water? Most of it is corners or edges that I’ve double sealed, but occasionally I’ll have an eighth inch of bag that has residue of marinade in it sticking out. I always go to great lengths to submerge it, but am I being overly paranoid? This setup is pretty shallow, so I’ll probably run into this again and again.
My cautions side says it’s sticking out, it’s gonna turn to poison and ruin the whole cook, and possibly burn down the house.
My less concerned side says that it’s so little mass that it a:will come up to temp through conduction, b: is covered, therefore the air will be more or less the same temperature as the water, ensuring safety as long as I’m not opening it all the time, and c: is going to be such a minuscule amount of poison that I’ll be fine.
Who is right?
Obviously, I’m going to try to keep everything under water, and I’ll probably just make my bags smaller in the future, but I want to know whether the ten minutes I spent fussing with it this morning was worth it, or I can save the trouble.
The wife and I have been putting on Pokémon while we fall asleep. The last episode we watched ended with about ten Pikachu stacked one on top of another using a combined Thunderbolt on Team Rocket. My wife said that it would have killed them, but I figured they were probably running in series, so they’d be at a higher voltage, but that’s not necessarily what makes you die. Then I remembered amperage, along with the fact that I know very little about electricity, so I came here.
So, assuming Pikachu can stack on one another to increase their output, and that a shock from one is quite painful, but not deadly, how would the deadlines change as more Pikachu were added? At what point would it become fatal? How would it change if we changed the orientation of the Pikachu?
Does anyone know what this dish is? It was the otoshi at an izakaya in Tokyo. I don’t recall if it said it was smoked, but it tasted smoked, and was certainly a raw chicken texture. Any ideas?
Hey, first off, I’m pretty frustrated, so I apologize if that comes through in my tone.
So, I just finished week one with my resmed 10 and I hate it. I find myself up in the middle of the night stopping it just to see if I’m at 4 hours so I can take it off.
I’m using a resmed n20 nose mask, and it seems to fit well, it rarely leaks, but if I get settled on either side, I can feel it about to come off my nostril. I think that is probably just a problem with me, I hyperfixate on things like when the seam of my socks aren’t just right under my toes, but it’s been weighing on me.
I’ve had one good night with it so far, where I felt I was finally getting used to it, and I felt good the next day, but the next few started getting worse. I was a bit congested so I couldn’t breathe through my nose, so I just accepted it and left it off. The next night, I started getting water in the mask and that kept waking me up, and I was only getting air through one nostril. Tonight I was only getting air through one nostril, despite both being clear when the mask is off, and it feels like I’m not getting enough air in my lungs. I’ve noticed that while I’m awake with it on, sometimes I’m not breathing at all, like my brain thinks it’s breathing calmly with shallow breaths, but 30 seconds later I have to consciously take a deep breath through my nose and breathe manually for a while.
I tried nose cushions, but those were worse. They were Phillips brand, and the hose came in the top and soft silicone tubes came down the sides which compressed and got completely cut off on my side.
Lastly, I struggle to stay cool, so I roll around until I fall asleep and that makes it a lot harder. Every time I roll over, I have to screw with it, move my pillow, adjust my mask, mess with the hose, it just wakes me all the way up every time.
So, that’s my bitching out of the way. That said, what all am I doing wrong? The main thing to tackle is the problem with my nose stuffing up probably, but googling seems to say that the Cpap should help relieve that, not make it worse. Do I need a full mask, or will that just make me more uncomfortable on my side? Thank you in advance for any help or advice. I really wanted this to make my life better, but more and more I’m dreading going to bed.
