Starting a keto/carnivore diet from today. Primarily due to some constant health issues that I have been dealing with for a couple of years now, with no traditional treatment helping much. I saw my father dealing with the same issues all his life. Hundreds of doctor visits and whatnot couldn't fix anything. This was my yesterday's dinner, ate a bunch of junk one last time. 🤞 Hopefully things get better now image

Only a few hundred million people will be able to use lightning directly self custodially because of how many channel opening txns can fit in a Bitcoin block Others will be inevitably pushed to use trusted/centralized systems So many Bitcoiners don't want to acknowledge this fact as if lying to themselves will somehow fix this

Fun fact: In certain schools of thought within Hinduism, you aren't allowed to marry up to your 7th cousin from your father's side and up to your 5th cousin from your mother's side. To facilitate this, socio-religious institutions meticulously maintained records of family and ancestry. It was strictly followed until my parents' time, and that's the reason why I can trace my ancestry back to the early 1400s

Sci-fi always shows future space suits as either bulky pressure tanks or mech suits Former NASA Deputy Administrator Dava Newman developed the BioSuit, which uses mechanical (textile-based) counterpressure instead of the traditional gas-pressurized mini-spacecraft approach Humans live at 1 atm on Earth, but in a pure oxygen environment like a space suit or station, ~0.3 atm is enough. The BioSuit has reached ~0.25 atm in lower body prototypes, close to 0.3 atm in areas like the calves and thighs, although joints are still well below target We are more likely to see something like this with advanced AR and AI integrated helmets in the future IMO image
