Scalp psoriasis and “bad skin” are two very different conditions that require different therapy. For psoriasis, Betamethasone helped me the most in 20 years, and finally biologicals. However I can’t get absolutely rid of it. I can recommend light clothes, so if possible no black shirts etc.

For anyone interested, I created !psoriasis@feddit.de a while ago, feel free to make the first post!

I guess yes. I use it from time to time via NewPipe to look up some bike repair stuff but I guess I could easily find that somewhere else in the web. But I think this could be a generation thing, I know many people only a few years younger who absolutely depend on random internet people explaining the news to them in video format or stuff like that.

That community is wild, but the discussion over Gaza over there is fucking crazy. Al Jazeera is one of their more credible sources, you can find articles from websites nobody every heard of, small blogs that state IDF soldiers are eating babies. And that is no exaggeration, that was the last thing I read before I left that community…

I didn’t know either, but it seems to be an often picked ‘random’ number by people. Here is an article about it, I didn’t read it though.

You shall be blessed stranger

I tried out Raccoon for a while, but I always accidentally up or downvoted posts while scrolling because it was super sensitive. So I switched back to Eternity (Nightly). But it may be fixed in the meantime…

This might be a regional thing. At least in Germany, where the reformation took place, the term Christian include all groups, protestans, catholics, orthodox etc.

Ackchually, cucumbers are berries. Cucumber and melons belong to the same family, they are kind of siblings.

It’s true Germans are not known for being very patient and easily get annoyed when standing in line, but I may have exaggerated a bit ;)

There is no such concept as “groceries getting bagged for you” in Germany. I have a backpack with me where I put my groceries.

Regarding your question, yes have a strategy.

The basic order on the belt is heavy to light items, so that the heavy things such cans or glas bottles go to the bottom, light stuff like yoghurt and eggs at the end of the belt so they come on top of the other groceries.

Of course this is not fixed, as light but bulky items may get a prioritized place on the belt. The worst thing that can happen is that you have to repack your backback.

However this is not all. As our cashiers are usually professionals, you will need to stategically slow them down, you want to avoid the shameful and pressuring looks of your successors. I do that by putting items inbetween the other stuff on the belt that have to be counted or weighed, such as pastry and vegetables. This gives you time to pack your stuff or rearrange in case you made mistake a step earlier.

Please update the post with the facts from the data sheet OP

I’m not sure if that’s the best thing to say to someone who tells you they are close having panic attacks.

Let’s be honest, sadly there is none.

I’m not sure if that is a sustainable model for the whole society. Pirating as a solution for everything feels like giving up to me. Also I can’t pirate my vacuum cleaner.

What you say is true and I can understand it is frustrating. But I really don’t know how to convince people. Convenience is king and you need to have strong political opinions to abstain. I am a nerd, but still I often need double the time to find the “alternative” way of owning things.

I recently wanted to get the Harry Potter audio books for listening on my phone. I basically had two “official” options:

1. Buying all E-books as mp3 download for 235€
2. Amazon Audible for 10€ per Month

You can clearly see that in reality, the industry gives you only one option - audible. For 235€ you can have 2 years of e-book subscriptions.

Maybe you would say “hey, 235€ may seem expensive but in exchange you will get to own the stuff you pay for!”. The thing is: you can get the whole audiobook collection on mp3-CD for just 70€ on Amazon?

In the end I bough an external CD-ROM drive and bought the mp3-CD box used for 40€.

It’s not about that stupid Audiobook or whether the price is justified. The point I want to make is that the industry makes is so hard for individuals to own things, that I almost see this as a lost battle. The way I chose, took almost 2 weeks, days of research, a frustrated lemmy post, two online orders and 2 hours time to copy the mp3s.

And the thing is, it’s the same for everything else - you want to buy a vacuum cleaner? Oh better look if it comes with special cleaner bags for 30€ per bag. Let’s not talk about printers.

Every little item needs so much research, only for the aspects of planned obsolescence and true ownership. We do not even talk about social or environmental aspects…

How the fuck should I expect others to spend so much time on energy on consumption things? Honestly, sometimes I am a bit envious of the people that just do not care. But only sometimes.

Sorry, that somehow developed into a rant

I think it’s a good thing polars developers are heading toward interoperability. The Dataframe Interchange Protocol the article mentions sounds interesting.

For example, if you read the documentation for Plotly Express

I know this seems to be an important topic in the community. But honestly, I rarely use all the plotting backends at all. They are nice for quick visualizations, but most of the time I prefer to throw my data into matplotlib on my own, just for the sake of customization.

polars.DataFrame.to_pandas() by default uses NumPy arrays, so it will have to convert all your data from Arrow to Numpy; this will double your memory usage at least, and take some computation too. If you use Arrow, however, the conversion will take essentially no time and no extra memory is needed (“zero copy”)

I don’t want to complain, it is definitely a good thing polars developers address this. pandas is the standard and as long as full interoperability between polars and the pandas ecosystem is lacking, this “hack” is needed. However, data transformation can be an incredibly sensitive topic. I do not even trust pandas or tensorflow in always doing the right thing when converting data - processing data in polars, converting it to pandas and then process it further - I am sceptical. And I am not even talking about performance here.

If you’re doing heavy geographical work, there will likely someday be a replacement for GeoPandas, but for now you probably going to spend a lot of time using Pandas

This is important. Geopandas is one of the most import libraries derived from pandas and widely used in the geoscience community. The idea of an equivalent like “geopolars” is insane in my eyes. I am biased as a data scientist mostly working on spatial data, but this is the main reason that I watch the development of polars only from the sidelines. Even if I wouldn’t work with geographic data, GeoAI is such an important topic you can’t just ignore it. And that’s only the perspective from my field, who knows what other important communities are out there that rely on pandas.

I use Track & Graph from F-Droid for tracking the amount of workouts and my weight. It’s not really specific to fitness or health, but I use for its support for exporting to CSV.

Lmao

Absolutely understandable. Maybe there is some easy tool around, but I see some potential problems.

Questions such as “Is this zone habitable in 2035” or “Will this area be ocean in 2050” are extremely hard to answer with our current knowledge and available data. As you probably know, climate scientists speak of probabilities, as projections e.g.for temperature are highly uncertain, especially in the more far away future. If there is a tool answering such questions, you probably can’t trust it. Then, you will likely not get a one does it all tool, as the questions OP asked are highly specific. All in all the matter is very complex and there are no easy answer. You need some kind of motivation to gather a certain amount of background knowledge about the topic.

I think what comes closest to what OP wants is downloading model results from largely accepted climate models such as CMIP6. They usually come in special file formats that can efficiently store geospatial time series, such as netCDF or HDF5. There are tools like Panoply where you can do some very nice visualisations. You do not need to code neither is the software very complex. QGIS and ArcGIS are overkill here, as you would not want to do spatial analysis but only visualize.

The work you would need to do is 1) understanding what you want - there is not a single result, instead you have climate projections under several different scenarios, model assumptions, input data etc. You need to figure out what to choose. 2) Have a decent feeling of geospatial visualization techniques. Cartography is a complex field, and correctly visualizing data is pretty hard.

I am sorry I cannot provide easy solution. WhatI can offer is helping to acquire data if you what you want and also I can give technical support on visualization software. Maybe also give you some guidelines on how to interpret a figure.
