My Kidney

Jump
  • My doctor usually prescribes Oxycodone when I have a stone/stones, but I'm just not an opiate guy. It makes me feel more sweaty and nauseous and despair. There is a prescription NSAID called Ketorlac that works much better for this kind of thing in my opinion. One of the effects of long term use is kidney damage, so you need to take enough but not too much for too long. FYI if you're looking for something to think about next time you get one.

    I also found a wireless TENS unit called a Hollywog that just sticks to your back. It's a little plate and doesn't have any external wires. It hangs on by the electrode pads and you control it with a phone app over Bluetooth. This thing is great to use while your back is winding and wringing and you are stuck in a reloading agony loop. It kind of helps make it possible to focus on something for a minute without being distracted by the pain.

  • I've been pretty happy with Gitea for small projects. I had to learn how to use it for because a client was already using it and wanted to upgrade to a more recent version. I was brought in just to make sure that it would work without introducing disaster, and that was my introduction to it. It's nearly completely brainless to run as a docker container and it seems to work just fine.

  • I wonder how these arguments are going to go someday when we have weapons that can just emit a field that instantly gives people cancer or vibrates their hearts to death or erases a person's memory. The MAGAs will all argue that is their right to leave out beacons that covers a certain radius and will just run around chuckling "you triggered? you mad bro? you got sudden bone cancer or an exploded heart bro? can't remember your kids? cry more ahahaha" and Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas will say of course these are fine, erasing peoples minds and having them drop to the ground when they encounter certain frequencies are just what the founding fathers intended (but keep those things a long fucking way away from us, of course)

  • It's not that he "falsely said" something. It doesn't even matter whether it's true or false and it's stupid to spend time debating whether he was right or wrong to say what he said. What he did by saying that was to give a rallying cry to whip up the fury of people who already believe in him. It doesn't matter if it's real, it just matters that they stay angry.
