The BRAT diet was originally recommended when dealing with vomiting or diarrhea. This diet consists of Banana, Rice, Apple, Toast.
The idea behind the diet is that the blandness from the food would reduce and/or revert the issue.
As of the 21st century it isn’t recommended anymore because it is an incomplete diet, especially in regards of hydration and electrolytes.

The #Minds social media has finally achieved one of their features federation and it federates with the #fediverse.
Some things are not congruent among the ecosystems like in Minds one is rewarded for daily engagement. Plus there are up/down votes, though isn’t too much of an issue since other services like #PeerTube or #Lemmy implement this feature.

A simple neck #workout is called “yes, no, maybe”.
To perform it, lay on your back and do the head movements of those expressions by lifting your head up from the resting position. The specific movements are:
The movements are simple, the #WOD not so much. Try to see if you can achieve 3 sets of 5 reps.

One claim I love people making is that #alcohol and #caffeine are diuretics and that’s why one needs to go more frequent to urinate when getting one’s daily buzz.
Don’t they realize that they are just guzzling down more liquid and looking for a cop-out. If their claim was true (in the way they imagine it to be), then removing the substance would reduce the frequency substantially.
What do they realize, if one guzzles down multiple pints of liquid (unless heavily dehydrated with electrolytes) quickly, then quite quickly one will get the urge to urinate.
Don’t get me wrong, alcohol and caffeine are diuretics, though barely ever does one take them in their raw form. Usually they are infused in liquid, where many scientists agree upon that the amount liquid is sufficient enough to counteract the diuretic effects.

Wondering if there is a correlation between the quality of #sleep and how messed up the bed is when waking up. Further considering the thickness and ease of folding of a cover and how it would skew the results.
Considering one had a weighted blanket, which by design is made to be difficult to move around or fold. Would this blanket be a good identifier or would one need to have at least one blanket sheet that any slight jolt would make a crease.

We live in the age of #SmartHome,s and to maximize the benefits of heat, got myself a Bluetooth thermostat. (WiFi smart home devices are too sketchy considering most hardware and/or software is closed source.)
The self programming of the temperature of the device can aid with the circadian rhythm and thereby trigger onset of sleepiness and wakefulness.

Remember to share positive posts, memes, etc. about open source things you use and like. A simple “I like this” or “thanks for working on this” can go a long way!
Happy people carry on using things quietly while negativity gets shared, memed, and shoved in front of folks who work on your favorite projects. One negative comment too often outweighs ten positive ones, because human brains are dumb.
Spread positivity, save someone from burnout.

Have you just over exposed your hands to the cold and don’t have hand warmers, then there are two locations that can help. First stick your hands under your armpits and second is by your groin. Additionally, to retain more warmth make yourself as small as possible and try find shelter from the elements like hide behind a wall for wind protection.
These are two areas that the body tries to keep alive for biological reasons. Thus this trick works great in a pinch.

One fundamental workout equipment when doing #RuckPT / #SandbagPT is the #sandbag. (Most #exercise,s that can be done with a #ruck are interchangeable with a sandbag.)
To fill up a sandbag the obvious material is sand. This can be found at your local sand beach, riverbed, or playground. All public sand should only be borrowed for the duration of the #workout and returned once done at ideally the same location where initially taken from.
A lighter alternative is cat litter, since this material is built to be liquid absorbent it is best to pack the grains in at least one sturdy plastic bag before placing it into the filler (a shell to hold the material before placing into the workout sandbag) and/or sandbag.
#Fossify (https://github.com/FossifyOrg) did a soft fork from the popular “Simple Mobile Tools” suite. Their gallery app can already be downloaded from #FDroid (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fossify.gallery/).

After using #GrapheneOS for 6 months, I sadly caved and set up #GoogleServices (GS).
A couple things surprised me:

The hardest part for me to achieve most fitness goals is the nutrition part with the main issue of getting enough calories.
The challenge is to learn how to construct the feeding periods with intent. Since I am not bothered with a growling stomach, thus my default state is an unintended fasting state.
Let us take today for an example, I ate once and the meal was worth about 1000 kcal.
Thus the two diet focused challenges of at 3000 kcal and 100 g of protein a day, will be quite sickly fun.

Two symptoms showed up quite quickly after turning on the heat.

For the past 8a, I have been living in room without a functioning heater due to me unintentionally closing the valves on the in/output pipes.
Today, I decided I might as well try my luck again and for the first time I heard liquid flowing through.
Cold management wasn’t too bad over the almost past decade, though the secondary conditions like increased relative humidity causing unknown mold build up, was the final straw of something needing to change. Because if one is staying 80% or more time in a room that is causing one harm, eventually it will kill you.

One inconvenience of single file scripting is eventually the overview becomes hard to manage. Thus one realizes that one will need to split up the file into files.
#Webpack gives a solution for building multiple files into one. Plus if one takes the extra effort of setting up #TypeScript one will get the benefits of type safety.

The Simple-Dashboard-Maker tool (https://codeberg.org/barefootstache/Simple-Dashboard-Maker) got a couple new features:
file://...
path from your browser and pointing to a HTML file#DailyBloggingChallenge (160/200)
Back on #BookWyrm after the past instance (bookwyrm.tech) burnt. One can follow me at @barefootstache.
In year 2023, I attempted the “one book a week” challenge and made it to 19 books.
Initially joined with the additional challenge of adding the books to #WikiData.
The sad part is that I retained very little from the books that were read last year.
Might be wise to add a book report within the “daily blogging challenge”, thus making me to interact with the content in more depth than the quick first glance.

This #TypeScript function builds a website from scratch with the body
parameter being the only necessary input.
/** * Opens a new window with a 'title'. * * @param body - the body of the HTML page * @param style - the style of the HTML page * @param title - the title of the HTML page * @param script - the javascript of the HTML page */ static openNewWindow(body:string, style = '', title="new display", script=''):true { const mywindow = window.open('', '_blank') as Window; mywindow.document.write(`<html><head><title>${title}</title>`); mywindow.document.write(`<style>${style}</style>`); mywindow.document.write('</head><body>'); mywindow.document.write(body); mywindow.document.write('<script>'); mywindow.document.write(script); mywindow.document.write('</script>'); mywindow.document.write('</body></html>'); mywindow.document.close(); // necessary for IE >= 10 mywindow.focus(); // necessary for IE >= 10*/ return true; }
This can be use as a way to display the scraped data.

One option for future processing is opening a new tab as #HTML page.
This has the benefit that the header details stay constant meaning calling media like images aren’t being blocked by #CORS. Further one can highlight the details that one deems important compared to the original creator.
One builds the HTML page as a string, just as one typically would do. The only difference is that the file extension is *.js
instead of *.html
.
I am a strong proponent of leaving this planet better behind than when I arrived on it. Thus to get the most bang for a lifetime my key focus is #longevity which I attempt to achieve with #nutrition specifically #plantbased.
Longevity is good and all as long as you are not frail and weak. Ideally would be to die young at an old age. Thus I incorporate tactics from #biohacking and #primalfitness. Additionally I am an advocate of #wildcrafting, which is a super set of #herbalism.
Studied many fields of science like maths or statistics, though the constant was always computer science.
Currently working as a fullstack web developer, though prefer to call myself a #SoftwareCrafter.
The goal of my side projects is to practice #GreenDevelopement meaning to create mainly static websites. The way the internet was intended to be.
On the artistic side, to dub all content under the Creative Commons license. Thereby, ideally, only using tools and resources that are #FLOSS #OpenSource. #nobot
