If nobody got me, I know the floaters and searing, incapacitating pain on the sides of my head got me

You can’t use logic with these people, they’ll try to burn you for being a witch.

    I thought that was called sealioning?

    I’m afraid I don’t have a wall of links to support my argument.

    Too bad they all live in China.

    baseless_discourse,

    Is this how tankies are made?

    jaschen,

    Men can love men too man! Ya too bad for China. I feel sorry for the people in China under the CCP.

    Y’all ready to be gouged for survival items until money becomes irrelevant?

    P.S. ‘A Capitalist Apocalypse’ would be a fun title for a political comedy song.

    ComradePorkRoll,

    I’ll start writing that play. We won’t even have to splurge on the stage as the wasteland will provide a natural setting.

    meyotch,

    Tell us about the before-times again!

    Too many people do not understand the difference between weather and climate.

    Sagifurius, (edited )

    And often, the people who laugh at “boomers” saying shit like “What global warming?” in weather events like this, don’t acknowledge or comprehend they’re doing the same damn thing, from the opposite perspective.

    The word cringe is thrown about too much, but unironically posting anything with a picture of Joker is the definition of cringe.

    Edit: I am surprised how controversial this is, but I stand by it 🫡

    Mask of the Phantasm Joker, excellent vintage.

    Hildegarde, in Never change, Twitter. Never change.

    Calling it 8 years is disingenuous.

    The phase of development that began after RDR1’s release would have been pre-production where a small group of senior staff lay the groundwork for the game.

    The vast majority of rockstar’s staff were still working on GTAV until release. Most of the team didn’t start work on RDR2 until the release of GTAV.

    It was 5 years between GTAV and their next game RDR2. 5 years of work by most of the staff. It is reasonable to call it 5 years.

    Pre-production is done well in advance at studios like this. Most of those 3 years would likely have been waiting for the main team to finish the last game.

    Floaters. If you see a sudden increase in them, get a referral to an ophthalmologist ASAP.

    jol,

    Why?

    NovaPrime,
    @NovaPrime@lemmy.ml avatar

    Potentially detaching/detached retina if I’m remembering correctly.

    jol,

    Not ideal. Get a doctor ASAP folk!

    Administrator, (edited )

    They are not usually related to the degraded retina and usually not treated (i went to the doctor because of these)

    Zeshade,

    Sudden increase is key here.

    JudahBenHur,

    sudden significant increase.

    RacerX,

    This happened to a relative and it turned out to be a serious issue, which they were able to deal with luckily. For weeks after I was so paranoid everytime I saw even one.

    dingus,

    Worth noting that it’s totally normal to see a lot more of them if you’re looking at a bright blue sky. That’s when they’ll be more apparent.

    Using vehicle velocity as risk assessment method is fucking dumb. Might as well put that copper to better use.

    Zagorath,
    @Zagorath@aussie.zone avatar

    No it’s not. Speed is a very significant element of road safety. At lower speeds, you can stop in a much shorter distance, and if you hit someone their chance of death or serious injury goes way down. Braking distance is proportional to the square of velocity, and reaction distance is directly proportional. If hit at 50 km/h, a pedestrian has a 90% chance of death. At 30 km/h, they have a 90% chance of survival.

    At lower speeds, you’re also far more likely to notice something that might require you to stop or slow. Your cone of vision at 60 km/h is 40°. At 80 it’s 30°, and at 100 km/h it’s 20°. A different source I found says under 50 km/h it’s 104° and at 65 it’s 70°. Whatever the specifics, lower speeds are much safer.

    This isn’t to say that speed cameras are the best or should be the only method used to ensure road safety. Narrowing roads, adding furniture by the roadside, and increasing the complexity of the route, are all good ways to reinforce a lower speed limit by reducing how safe drivers feel driving at high speed. But speed cameras are a useful supplement to that, for those drivers determined to be irresponsible.

    BilboBargains,

    Why is high speed highway driving safer per km if vehicle velocity is a ‘very significant element of road safety’?

    The problem, as ever, is retards driving fast on slow roads and slow on fast roads. The camera doesn’t discriminate, it triggers no matter the context. It will trigger the same way for a racing driver with lightening fast reflexes in perfect conditions as it will for tired grandma with cold treacle reaction time driving on snow.

    Don’t believe their lies.

    Kecessa,

    Because highways don’t have stop signs or lights or people in slower means of transportation sharing the road with cars.

    When accidents happen on highways they tend to involve more cars and to be more destructive too because of the speeds involved.

    greenhorn, in I'm never lonely cuz i got these little guys with me :)

    Everyone on here talking about theirs going away over time and I’m wondering if I’m supposed to go in for regular scraping as I get older

    OwlPaste,

    Think thry never go away but your brain ignores them like it ignores your nose (close one eye)

    LinkOpensChest_wav,

    Mine often become visible to me shortly before experiencing a migraine. Is there a reason for this? I’ve told my doctor, but they didn’t seem to react to this information much, just said it can happen.

    LazerVHSion, (edited )
    @LazerVHSion@lemmy.world avatar

    Not sure about seeing floaters before migraines, but what you see could be migraine auras. I have them and they affect my field of vision prior to a migraine. I’ll see flashy/persistent “dots” or completely be unable to focus on certain things, like I have a blind spot. Hate it, but it at least gives me time to grab meds before the pain sets in. Usually happens ~20-60 minutes before onset.

    LinkOpensChest_wav,

    Mine look like what’s in the picture, but they’re sparkly. And yeah, sometimes they’re so bad they disrupt my vision, but not always.

    someacnt_,

    Is it like a star? I heard it could be a sign of retinal tear.

    Lemminary, (edited )

    Joke’s on you, my nose covers half of my view on both eyes.

    Venator,

    Them going away is probably an illusion, probably a result of sensory adaptation.

    SadSadSatellite,

    They’re little bits of debris and fibrous points in the gel matrix of your eye. They don’t go away ever, but they float to a part of your eye you don’t pay as much attention to. They tend to “go away” in people who consistently sleep on the same side. If you’re a back sleeper, or move around a lot, they tend to stick near your macula (your main focal point).

    When I run ocular scans on people I can see them drifting around. They’re not a problem unless they’re dense or dark, then they might be blood due to a retinal tear or diabetic retinopathy.

    Cow2,

    So, in theory, I should be able to get in one of these centrifuges that NASA has, and they’ll all get pushed to one side?

    gibmiser,
    Confused_Emus,

    I’ve got some childhood trauma associated with those things that always reminds me of the taste and texture of a mouth full of dirt.

    gibmiser,

    So, uh… trigger warning?

    Zoboomafoo,

    Among other things, yes
