If you travel due south from Detroit the first foreign country you will hit is Canada.

It’s a massive difference… night and day

The jails are not air conditioned.

Every eye has a tiny blind spot near the middle. But your brain makes it disappear and you don’t realize it’s there.

You can verify this. Draw a dot on a bit of paper. Close one eye, stare at a fixed point, now move the paper around the center until the dot disappears…magic

What we consider reality, is a synthesis our brain is presenting to us, it is an approximation… realizing that is a real mind blower

You wouldn’t die, you would just have to remove those four layers of clothing you’re wearing

Aclimatization is real. When you spend everyday at 35°, for 3 months, living your life. And then one day it’s 28°, you’re going to feel chilly. And that’s when you know you’ve adapted

The temperature may not be as cool, but you don’t have the sun beating down on you. So the effect of experience is much more enjoyable

Sgp here: you do social activities at night when it’s cool.

During the day you stay hydrated, electrolytes, avoid the sun, if you must be in the sun cover yourself with a hat and long sleeves.

Acclimatization takes about 3 months, then you are more or less used to it.

100% yes

Yes it’s global. Your right - In my head I have metabolic syndrome on a spectrum following insulin resistance, so I’m using the 88% as metabolically unhealthy as on the spectrum of metabolic syndrome. I shouldn’t do that, I know MetS has a clinical definition based on multi-factor presentation.

Prevalence of Optimal Metabolic Health in American Adults: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009–2016

Metabolically healthy Americans… at 12%

My data shows 88% metabolically unhealthy as of 2016, so I’m guessing it hasn’t improved since then.

But the exact numbers are not so important, the trend and prevalence

Snoring is one symptom of obesity, but also has a number of other unrelated potential causes, such as enlarged tissues in the nose and throat or enlarged tonsils. Snoring by itself does not mean you have a metabolic syndrome, nor does it mean you have sleep apnea.

100%, just that metabolic issues (being the most common) may be the most likely culprit, of course when working with a issue you rule out the easy things to rule out first.

I disagree. I think the modified statement: there are many people who snore who have good quality of life is true.

There are downsides to snoring, one when you’re asleep and vulnerable you’re making noise so predators can find you. Obviously that’s not a problem nowadays, but it’s not how we’re designed to operate

Snoring, hypertension, obesity, diabetes, etc, all of these are signs of metabolic syndrome. The vast majority of people in the West have metabolic syndrome right now, and well it may not affect their day-to-day life now, it can significantly impact their quality of life later. Being metabolically healthy today, including not snoring, helps avoid a lot of the issues we associate with growing old

Nobody knows my birthday.

For adults unless your throwing a party, it’s not something that comes up.

Pop it into a different machine and use a tool like dban to wipe it.

Here we go!

The most common form of snoring is associated with metabolic syndrome. Ectopic fat in the airway interfering with the airflow.

It’s more common in adults, but certainly younger people have become more metabolically unhealthy recently.

Everyone will assume you’re just a sock puppet to promote a crypto scam in the comments

Probably don’t use an instance that sounds like a crypto scam

For honor!

Golf clap.
