everyone is hyping the ring 5 launch and I get it. its thinner, lighter, new sensors, GLP-1 tracking, etc. but the more I read, the more I feel like Oura kind of didn't do enough to justify a full generation jump?

What is bugging me is that its the same subscription either way and you need to pay $5.99 a month. all the headline software features are coming to ring 4 anyway. Battery is only ~1 day longer on the 5 which is not a big difference. Ring 4 prices are dropping fast now due to the new gen release. The only real upgrade I see is the 40% smaller body and the 4x more powerful LEDs. cool, but is that worth additional $100?

what do you guys think about the new oura ring gen 5? is it worth the hype?

if generative AI begins recommending next steps alongside predictive risk scores, where should the line be drawn between decision support and decision-making?

who is accountable when a clinician follows an AI's suggestion and the outcome is poor?

which watch is best for tracking running workouts? I am into running for like 2 years now and I am using apple watch SE (the old one) to track my run workouts. tbh I am sooo tired of this watch, especially when you need to charge it everyday.. makes me so annoyed

I decided that I need an upgrade so I wouldn't need to charge my watch every evening. also, I was wondering which smart watch is the most accurate one for tracking running and other activities?

everyone online is saying that Garmin is one of the best options for runners but the watch is a bit pricey for me. are there other brands that are as good as Garmin but a bit cheaper?

my mom is a light sleeper and she has issues falling asleep. she always listens to fan noises on YT before going to sleep and leaves it for the whole night. this means she has to charge her phone overnight and cant locl it because she doesn't have YT premium. it is not convenient for her

I was thinking of getting her a white noise machine she would be able to use instead of using her phone. something small and easthetic that she could place on her nightstand.

I have been checking some basic and scientific articles, reading reviews online and it looks like it actually helps people to fall asleep faster and calms their nervous system. some say its way more comfortable and different from just listening a YT video

has anyone tried white noise machine themselves and can share their thoughts and pros/cons of this device?

I have been seeing this word online for too often lol. a lot of biohackers use cryotherapy to improve their longevity.

what is cryotherapy and has anyone tried it?

been checking some explanations online and it seems that its the same as cold therapy just you are using some specific full body devices that look like standing tanning beds

but if I go to swim in a cold lake in the middle of the winter does it also counts as cryotherapy?
