I've had emergency surgery for appendicitis in April and it made me realise how fucking awful the body's self diagnostic tools are. Pain is nowhere near accurate enough. I went to the doctor thinking I have some kind of stomach bug and a few hours later I was lying on the operating table.

I had the same experience in April two years ago! It was an all day ordeal and by the time they got me to the OR I rated my pain on the 1-10 scale as a "3"....my appendix burst while they were removing it. Wtf is that pain tolerance?!
Took them 2 days to take mine out, then two weeks in hospital. You know I was over a 3 (the second week was a retry because I failed the objective of "Beat septicaemia before it kills you." I guess I loaded from checkpoint).
I saw a pain scale 10 there too. Some poor guy had an issue with his gentleman vegetables, screaming to have them chopped out at 2am because of the pain. That was a 10.
I've had searing testicular pain to the point I wanted to ball up and cry, and don't get me wrong I have serious empathy for that guy, but you wanna know the worst pain I've ever experienced? And the worst pain I sincerely believe is possible? Tooth pain.
When I was a freshman in high school I got a rare infection in my tooth that started attacking the nerve. Now apparently I didn't notice I had the infection for quite a while because all the pain arrived in a single day. Since the waste gasses from the bacteria couldn't get out of the tooth they just sat there building up pressure, eventually causing me mild discomfort for a day which I passed off as nothing. And then, in the middle of the night I woke up screaming in pain and begging my parents to just pull my tooth out all together. You know what they told me? "It can't hurt that bad go back to sleep we'll check on it in the morning." They gave me Ibuprofen and went back to bed. Well I didn't fucking sleep I just laid there for hours silently sobbing at the amount of pain I was in. Next day I tell my mom that it still hurts enough that I'm ready to pull it out of my skull and she takes me to the dentist who drills a hole in my tooth to relieve the pressure and prescribes me opiates for the pain
I will never forget the 6 hours that I laid in bed with minimal painkillers (that didn't help anyway) every second making a wish that I would die
Edit: Just to clarify the type of pain we're talking about here. My tooth felt like it was about to explode, combined with the feeling of someone slowly and tortuously twisting and pulling my tooth out of my head with pair of hot pliers with needlepoints on the clamps after he had already bashed my face in with a hammer

I can only speak of hospitals in the US, the South East specifically but I had just this happen.
I went to bed with a moderate toothache, I had tried the gels, the cream, some oil of cloves...
Woke up around midnight, felt like someone had punched the side of my face, the pain was inescapable. I tried more oil of cloves (that ended up burning my tongue for 3 weeks I tried putting so much on) to no avail.
I took a Lortab (Hydrocodone) I had for emergencies. It took the edge off but I literally punched two holes in the wall. Called my mum to drive me to the ER.
Got there and they saw me immediately. They have no dentists on staff I am told and the best they can do is numb me up to get me through to being able to see a dentist. At this point I just agreed to whatever they said without really listening, just stop the fucking pain please!
He tried to give me a shot, it was a back molar and he was unable to reach it, so he said I would have to opt for maximum dose ibuprofen at 800mg a shot, got it by IV. Also gave me a hit of morphine which did nothing.
Then he decided to try something else, the pain had driven my blood pressure up to 300, he gave me a strong dose of blood pressure meds. And that actually began reducing the pain. I don't know if the lower pressure finally let the medication work or the pressure alone was causing it.
He gave me some antibiotics to speed my way to a dentist and released me. I was able to go home and sleep despite it still throbbing it was no longer torture. I managed to get a dental loan (which I will be paying off the next nine years) to cover three extractions including a wisdom tooth).
I've been mostly pain free since then but worry because he told me another tooth was well past the point of recovery and was a time bomb, and all this week it has been going "doot doot doot, I'm here, hi!"...
My teeth are fucked, and I'd gladly pay for the rest of my life if I could get the costs for fixing them covered up front immediately.
Aedda ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:14:26 on August 8, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I used CareCredit, they ask for the estimated costs up front before considering the loan. Whatever you answer they will offer less coverage so inflate the estimate a bit. I asked for $1200 and got $900. There was also another plan being promoted by a local dental office but I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it. Googing for "dental loan" without the quotes should get you some other possibilities. In any case good luck.
My husband had terrible tooth pain, apparently an abscess bad enough that we finally just took him to the ER in the middle of the night. They prescribed him painkillers (very basic ones, didn't do better than the Advil) and an antibiotic for the infection. And then told him to go to the dentist.
at least in Germany there are "emergency dentists" i think. Basically they are on the answering machines of all dentists in the region and are sleeping on call
I've done it. They give you pain killers and they'll pump antibiotics straight into your bloodstream if they have to. Then they tell you to go to the dentist ASAP, who will give you more antibiotics and painkillers until they are able to pull the tooth/do whatever to solve the issue.
I once had a tooth ache during a manic episode. The tooth pain made a feedback loop with the mania. It was night, I could not get into see a dentist so went to the hospital. They told me they could not help unless it was to fix the damage of a broken tooth.
So I got a pair of pliers from my car shattered the tooth in front of the triage nurse and started laughing screaming at the same time, my hands and mouth covered in blood because I had torn my gum. Then while I was holding my shattered tooth and a pair of pliers I finally blacked out.
Pain mixed with mental illness is a hurricane.
I did not laugh i cringed, but whenever i feel true pain like anything just a bit over smashing 3 toes at once into a nail, I go from silently saying "oh shit owch" to maniacal laughter. I dont know why, and it doesnt seem to help with the pain at all when I do, I giggle a airless out of breath kinda lauph like I got told the worlds funniest joke five minutes ago and I still cant get over it.
The brain is weird machine.
If I had a real life HUD I would want a read out of my moods and how close to a trigger event I am.
Also I would want a perception filter that alerted me if other people thought I was acting odd.
Jesus. Mind elaborating on the Mental Illness? It must've either been a lot of pain with a little mental illness, or a little pain with a lot of mental illness.
Atypical bipolar. Kinda a catch all for people who suffer mania and depression but without any other clear symptoms.
Pain seems to trigger manic episodes, which stops me from coping with the pain, which makes the pain worse and then the brain goes fucking primal. doctors still not sure why.
Not OP, but I lost a filling and the pain from the exposed nerve was excruciating. My uncle had a toothache so bad he threatened to murder his dentist if he didn't come in and pull his tooth. Teeth pain fucking sucks. I'd rather get kicked in the balls every 5 minutes than deal with an hour of tooth pain.

Not that time. They did give me a bed and few days on some very medicine while I recovered. I was not suicidal or dangerous, just very, very distressed.
I am on a good road maybe for the first time in over two very long decades.
I have hope, it is new and small but it is mine. Thanks for the positive thoughts. Reddit keeps making me smile, so many of you respond nicely too my random comments and anecdotes.
I wouldn't wish a toothache on my worst enemy. It was worse than childbirth (which I did naturally, on purpose). At the peak of my pain, I couldn't even really tell where the pain was coming from anymore, because my whole head was throbbing. Ibuprofen hardly touched it.
I used to fear root canals, but I loved mine because it meant sweet, sweet relief!
Fun fact: Never knew what a root canal was and when the doctor described it to me as literally drilling out the root of your tooth nerves and all I really thought about not doing it until he reminded me that the infection killed the nerve so I would feel literally nothing. Was kinda scary when they got the drill stuck in my tooth though. "Oh no this happens all the time" doesn't help a 14 year old boy with a large piece of dental equipment hanging out of his face
P.S. Another funny thing is when they tested to see if the nerve was dead they pulled out a gun with a piece of wire sticking out the end and said I would feel "something" if the nerve was alive, and to raise my hand if I felt "something" so they tested the infected tooth and I didn't feel a thing I didn't even know they had tested it or even started the test. Then they tested the tooth next to it, and as soon as the fucker pressed that button my hand shot up like a fucking rocket. It wasn't "something" it was what felt like 10,000,000 volts coming out the end of what I now believe to be one of those static guns they use to test electronics
Yeah, my nerve wasn't dead yet, so they had to numb me at two separate points during the procedure. Initial numbing just so they could starting drilling into my tooth. And then, once the nerve was exposed, they had to numb the nerve. Those 10,000,000 volts you felt in your good tooth was what I felt on my bad tooth. A needle directly to the nerve HURT. My consolation was that they warned me about it first so I wasn't surprised, and that the dental hygienist rubbed my shoulder and spoke in low soothing tones (kind of comparable to comforting a child). But even that part was fairly quick, and thankfully I'm not afraid of needles.
My worst pain was an earache. It felt like someone was ramming a cheese grater into my eardrum. So not only was it sharp and grating but it was also throbbing and being rammed by pressure. I wanted to die. I called an ambulance for the first time in my life (they are free here) (i didn't call one for a possible miscarriage, asthma attack or severe eczema outbreak)
A bad earache can easily leave you physically disabled to the point there is no way you could get yourself to a hospital. At least you were able to pick up a phone and make a call!
Pretty much. My brother lacerated his kidney and had to be air lifted to another hospital. The first thing out of his wife's mouth was 'we don't have care flight insurance, Courtney. What are we going to do? '
I swear, does ibuprofen actually fucking do anything? It is touted as this miraculous pain reliever, but it's never actually relieved me of any kind of pain whatsoever. It hasn't even slightly reduced pain that I have experienced.
It helps me IF they pain is caused by inflammation AND I take it before the pain gets to the point where I really want to dull it... basically, it's more preventative than treatment.

It's a mild pain reliever. Helps muscle sores, mild sore throats and minor toothaches. Its pretty funny that the pharmacy advertises ibuprofen as "serious pain relief".

That's so that people actually take it, instead of demanding opiates.
I used to take ibuprofen a lot when I was little (like half a pill probably? I was a skinny kid) because I'd get severe growing pains in my legs. Think low-key Charlie horse extended over hours if I didn't take any painkillers on a good day. On a bad day it meant crying at I tried to lay as still as possible with my legs stretched out. It mostly helped with that. It wouldn't always get rid of the pain completely, but there'd be significant improvement.
800 MG (4 standard pills) of ibuprofen taken the second I started to feel a little crampy was how I managed my horrible menstrual pain for years. If I waited until it started to hurt it was too late.
I say "managed" because it didn't stop the pain, just dulled it to where I could function.
The last major infection I got I sat there convincing myself that I could wait the 3 hours for the clinic to open rather than stabbing my own ear drum with a straightened out paper clip to relieve the pressure. I barely made it. That feeling was insane.
had a to get a root canal do to a tooth injury that caused to root to become infected through a crack caused by biting down on an expected piece of pointed metal in food.
Initial injury was fine. Then about a month later. Incredible pain started, but I had to wait a week for the appt, so everyday that week I was high off my ass on dayquil. Drank waaaay to much of the stuff, but it was the only thing I found to make being awake bearable. And Nyquil put my ass to bed well enough to get some sleep.

I like how your description of how bad the pain was slowly got more detailed and brutal.
I agree. I have a high pain tolerance and had a tooth infection over new years last year. I was sobbing in pain while on more T3s than I should have been. Even once I was on morphine and antibiotics I could still feel the pain, it just wasn't "My entire face from my chin to my eye is made of more pain than I've ever experienced."
Mine wasn't either it was more localized to my upper right jaw which did feel like it had been bashed in with a hammer. Still the worst pain I've ever experienced but more localized than my entire face
Similar story. I broke my leg real bad. Compound fractures in both tibia and fibula. So the first aid people pit a plaster on it and my surgery was scheduled for the next day. However, at night I developed something called compartment syndrome where the muscles in my broken leg bulged up to 3 times their original size. But my leg was in a plaster. So lo and behold, misery time. I kept begging the doctor to give me more painkillers but nothing worked and in the end I was just so relieved to be taken to the OT. Most painful 6 hours of my life.

Was this somewhere overseas in Asia? I just ask because they hate giving painkillers over there. And by painkillers, I mean NSAIDS like ibuprofen, because they almost never give opiates.
This reminds me of an episode of Dr Katz Professional Therapist in which Ben, his son, has his wisdom teeth out, and Johnathan Katz gives him antibiotics instead of painkillers...
I hope my kids never go through that- one because that sounds shitty, but two because I don't think they could communicate it very well and I would do the same thing your parents did. My seven year old will scream bloody murder and sob because she stubbed her toe. I have to talk her down sometimes so I can asses injuries. She broke her finger, and after I talked her down, was calm as heck. I really can't tell with her if something is serious or not. I only took her to urgent care because when asked if she would get a shot to help the pain she said she would. Shots are terrifying to her.
My other daughter is autistic and has a high pain tolerance. She will wake up in the middle of the night screaming with no explanation- we think nightmares- but she can also get a 2nd degree burn and shrug it off.
I feel sorry for little you, but I also feel bad for your parents. They had to feel pretty guilty later when they learned you weren't over-reacting.
Don't worry as long as you do the best you can your kids will love you for everything you do. My parent's were in a similar situation, one autistic son, and me, who wanted attention when I was younger because I didn't understand how serious my brother's disorder was and I felt neglected. So when something serious happened with me it was a bit like crying wolf (my parents still don't believe me that I'm allergic to apples, tree nuts, pears, plums, etc.).
But still, they were there for me when it really mattered and when I really needed them they offered up everything for me. They weren't always the best parents and they have some strong convictions that I very much disagree with but they did the best they could and I turned out a lot better than I could've. Keep doing what you do and your kids will turn out alright even if you make a few mistakes along the way
It's also nice to see that you have such an understanding view of your parents. This autism thing really is parenting on hard mode. I'm constantly trying to make it up to my "normal" kiddos. Seven year old really doesn't get it yet. When would you say the light went on for you?
Honestly it took a long time and a more mature adult perspective to really understand how hard they worked for my brother and me. I honestly didn't start really understanding and respecting my parents dedication until after I got out of high school and into college.
But never let that deter you, your autistic daughter is going to need your love and support for a very long time so even when you feel defeated remember what your children mean to you and in the end it will all work out.

I tore my scrotum open when I was 12. One of the worst pains ever.
The worst pain I ever experienced was having my knee separate completely (the end of the femur rolling forward over the top of the tibia) tearing many things in addition to the already torn ACL. I was in the middle of suplexing a heavyweight during a wrestling match and my knee just gave out. Hit the floor screaming in pain. But I can't imagine how painful that tooth would have been. Jesus, even a bit of steak stuck in my sweet gap makes me go insane.
Damn. That sounds bloody awful. Recently I had a different mouth related ordeal. Had a viral infection that cause my mouth to fill up with ulcers. Covered my gums, my tongue, even parts of my throat. For almost a week it was torture to eat, drink, talk, swallow, even just sitting around my mouth was a constant source of pain. And I had to keep up on fluids and calories because the viral infection was still putting me through the normal symptoms of the flu.
Dont know if I've ever felt that uncomfortable before for such a long time. Ended up going to the hospital when it persisted (was worried it might be something serious but was told it was likely viral) and they prescribed me a numbing mouthwash, something I wish my doctor had prescribed me a week prior.
Gotta agree, tooth pains suck more than most other pains. I've had two root canals and apparently one of them wasn't filled in all the way, leaving a little pocket for bacteria to build up in.

No, the worst pain is when your small intestine ties itself in a knot and begins to die.
I once had surgery where the surgeons cut into my gum line to remove a tooth and for the 6 weeks following that, I was in utter agony. I couldn't eat anything that needed chewing cause fuck that and just ate baby food for 6 weeks... Surprisingly good.

I wish parents wouldn't dismiss stuff like this and not take their kid's opinions as actual opinions and as things to be considered instead of dismissing them. This happened to me as well except the situation was much less painful, as I had a cracked/ sprained wrist and didn't get a splint for 2-4 days as both of the parents (one of which is a doctor which specializes in internal injury such as mine) told me the pain couldn't be to bad and waited until after our schools promotion and waited until after the associated celebrations, at about 12am to buy me a pair of athletes wrist supports.(notice - not an actual splint)
I think any pain that deals with a nerve is probably the worst pain possible. I've had a mirena IUD inserted with only Ibuprofen. That involves dilating your cervix... like in childbirth. Just not nearly as far as childbirth. However, nothing has hit me as bad as sciatica. I have a pinched nerve in my back and sometimes it's so bad I just want to die. I tell my SO, "Just kill me, please. I can't live life like this anyway." Sometimes he has to help me put on my pants, shoes, and socks because bending over leads to blinding, sharp pain. There are days that get so bad I just cry and cry because it hurts to walk, sit, lay down... Basically anything I do is painful. Sometimes when I'm sleeping and end up in the wrong position it will send this shooting, sharp pain down my left thigh and I'll wake up screaming... I used to think I had a high tolerance for pain. I was wrong.
Not tooth pain, but ear pain was my experience. Same problem, mild discomfort one day searing pain that night in the middle of the night. I had an ear infection that was building up pressure behind my eardrum. Woke up Midway through the night in pain and the only thing I could think of doing was jamming a pencil in it to see if I could make it stop. At that point I decided to wake up my wife and tell her I needed to go to the hospital which she took very seriously because I don't even like to go see a doctor.
Had the same kind of pain in one of my molars. The worst part was that when I was getting a root canal for it the anaesthetic didn't work, and THAT was definitively the worst pain I've ever felt in my life.
Pure liquid misery. When this happened to me the only relief was applying ice to my jaw till everything went numb. Unfortunately this is not healthy to do for extended periods of time, so it's mostly uninterrupted torture.
Ice/cold water helped mine. The coolness of the water basically reduced the pressure of the gases building inside my tooth and i had virtually no pain until the water warmed up. Worst 24 hours of my life.

Some poor guy had an issue with his gentleman vegetables, screaming to have them chopped out at 2am because of the pain. That was a 10.
Sounds like testicular torsion, I've known two guys that had it happen in their sleep and they both had that kind of thousand-yard-stare look talking about it.

My 11/10 stomach pain was gallstones. Upper right quadrant, constricting/burning pain that makes you restless.
yes, i had this a year back, never had them removed, hoping it never comes back! the pain was excruciating. did you ever figure out how to treat the pain?
Cucumbers helped a bit for me when I had gallstones.
Now I don't have to worry about it because I no longer have a gallbladder. 10/10, would recommend.

Nope. Codeine doesn't touch it. Valium helps a bit to relax during an attack. Apparently a drink of apple juice with Apple cider vinegar helps, but I find it hit-and-miss. Getting my gallbladder removed as soon as I find the time.

it's not as if we'd be able to do anything about gut pain, for most of human history. a thoroughly useless pain.
I compare all my pain to jamming your toe against a bedpost/wall corner.
Before that would be like an 8/10 for me.
Last November I had the worst pain of my life in my chest, felt like I was having a heart attack. At that point, jamming your toe against a bedpost/corner became a 4/10 in pain, and that new chest pain I got was a 8/10.
It would literally stop me from moving and I had to lie down on the floor no matter what I was doing since it felt like someone was grabbing my chest bones/ribs and squeezing really fucking hard. The problem was that I would never know how long the "attack" would go on for, sometimes 15 minutes, sometimes 2 hours. It would just come and go randomly 5-10 times a day.
Diagnosed with costochondritis after 2-3 doctor visits (don't know why I can't remember how many exactly): http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/costochondritis/basics/definition/con-20024454
Pain caused by costochondritis might mimic that of a heart attack or other heart conditions.
After 4 different medications, I'm all better now, I hope to NEVER have that shit on me again.
To be honest, my appendicitis felt like bad gas and I tried to sleep it off. When that didn't work, I tried to walk to A&E. When that didn't work, I hopped in a taxi. When I got there, I started throwing up and they got the hint. Appendicitis usually presents as a pain in the lower right part of the abdomen I believe (as that's where it is). If it's anything else, i can't help friend, but I'd see a doctor!
I will admit I had to turn and ask my partner if "gentleman vegetables" meant balls.

I don't even want to think about a 10. I had an ovarian cyst rupture a few years ago, and I'd call that an 8 at its worst. Then the first 24 hours after my endo surgery was up there too. I also had an an abcessed tooth several years ago that was around an 8. Those are examples of the worst pain I've experienced and they were truly awful... I just don't want to think about a 10.

We I was 10, I was sick for a week... After that week my mom took me to the doctor who admitted me to the hospital for possible appendicitis.
I was in there a week and the doctors were deciding if I had to have it out or not, I remember one saying "if you are no better by tomorrow, than we have to take it out."
I got better the next day, enough that they put off surgery. I was on an IV the entire time, so no idea what drugs they gave me.
Is it possible to recover from appendicitis? Or did I just have someone else going on?
I think you can, it's just an infection after all. Unless it goes necrotic and/or doesn't respond to antibiotics, there's no need to take it out really.
Edit: not a doctor but have shared stories

On a side note, as others here said, I don't remember any pain associated with my side. I do remember feeling weak, tired a lot, and flue like symptoms. High fever, etc.
As far as I know, the 1 to 10 scale is more of a way to determine if the pain is changing. People have different tolerances for pain, so the number itself doesn't necessarily mean anything.
And even if it did, people have no goddamn idea how to use it. You'll see people sitting calmly on an exam table saying they're experiencing pain that's 9/10.
Motherfucker you wouldn't be able to speak if you were experiencing 9/10 pain.

Kidney stones.
Hurt so fucking bad I forgot how to write my own name when being admitted to the ER. I'd never had them before and thought I was having total renal failure or something crazy. Close tie to my first Diverticulitis attack on the 1-10 scale
Actually, it's still in there but they fitted a stent to save the kidney until they can get it with a laser.
Hand on heart, if someone had offered to kill me to put me out of my misery I would have seriously considered it.
At its worst I was rocking back and forth on all fours on the bed in a&e, scream sobbing and vomiting blood (from all the meds taken on an empty stomach). Even then I told the nurse it was probably a 7 and she just looked at me and went 'that looks more like a 10. I'm getting you some morphine'.
I've been through a natural childbirth (with a bad tear) and a massive dental abscess that left me wanting to claw my own face off but neither compares to kidney stones.
Right? My pain was all on the opposite side of my abdomen than where you normally feel it for appendicitis too so I was convinced it wasn't that. Thankfully, trained medical professionals know better than to listen to my unqualified diagnosis and decided to fix me properly.
Same exact shit basically. About a year ago I had appendicitis and just missed a few days of school waiting for it to get better. I was worried that they had misdiagnosed me because it was only ~3 on a 1/10 scale of pain. The few days after sucked but after a week I could do basically everything and went skiing, could run...

Everyone's pain tolerance is different! I suffer from chronic migraines & would rate my pain from those at times way higher than how I felt before my appendix was removed. My recovery from surgery on the other hand, was so much worse than the actual pain from my appendix lol
I had been in pain at that point for over 12 hours, I knew something wasn't right. 3 is still more pain than I have on a day to day basis.

I also went to the doctor just because something felt off about it. I had experienced very similar pain a few months earlier due to gas (the joys of bulking) and was convinced that this time it would be the same. But once I got a bit of a fever I was thinking stomach bug. Basically I just wanted reassurance that it's nothing serious.
FYI it didn't "burst while they were removing it" like it's a balloon under pressure; we grab it and push and pull on it so if it's all inflamed it will rupture secondary to that.
Same same. When I was a kid I had the same thing happen to me. I woke up with an unbelievable pain in my stomach, and so my mom took me to the hospital. I farted and felt better, so I got super freaked out because I thought I made her drive me to the hospital at 4 am over gas. I pretended I still felt pain and it eventually actually did come back. Docs told me I was hours from my appendix bursting at the most by the time I was under the knife.

Or the optimistic way of looking at it. The body has an excellent emergency diagnostic tool. We just eliminated all the easy ones to treat so now all we get are more obscure problems.
same. I went to the dentist because i started getting a foul taste in my mouth and it turns out i had 4 impacted infected wisdom teeth. i was in no pain at all

Seems pretty efficient. You knew to go to the doctor. My appendix ruptured and I knew I had to go to the ER. Same thing happened to my nephew and my sister. We all knew there was a problem.
Had mine taken out last June. It was a textbook presentation though. General stomach pain and nausea that migrated and became intense pain in the lower right abdomen. It was only about 7 hours between the first sign and when I was being driven to the ER and crying at every bump in the road.
I had an appendectomy in January and it really surprised me how easy it could be to misinterpret that pain. If you don't know that a stomach cramp on the right side isn't a stomach cramp, there isn't much else to go on. My brother had just gone through appendicitis the previous March, and I'm a bit of a hypochondriac anyway, so I was paying close attention to it, but most people aren't like that.

Well in my case the pain wasn't on the right side. Even when pressing down on it I'd hardly feel a thing right up until a few hours before surgery. The pain was mostly in my upper abdomen and the left side of my lower back.
I've had the opposite - recurring gastritis that, while not anywhere near life threatening, was the worst pain I have ever experienced. It can last 40+ hours and gradually goes from unpleasant bloating to constant unendurable agony.

I thought I was inhumanly gassy, went to the doc for a scheduled checkup the next day, motioned the pain, he orders an ultrasound. Come to find out, I had an ovarian cyst the equivalent of a six month pregnancy. It ruptured my ovary and i went in for urgent surgery the next morning.
Really? Mine started in the morning one day when I woke up. Thought it was a stomach ache, but it kept getting worse and it just felt "off". By lunch time I knew I needed to go to the doctor and by about 2 or 3 I had a good idea what it was. I got my parents to drive me to the ER around 5 and was in the OR a few hours later. I'd have rated mine a 1 out of 10 in the morning, and a 7 or 8 shortly before they put me.under.
Same thing happened to me just in May. I went thinking I just had bad gas or something and it turned out that the corner of my appendix was obliterated. I was in and out of surgery before I could process what was happening.
Same thing happened to my brother 2 days ago. Dad thought he was faking it to get off school (at first, but then he took him to the doctor). Now he's in a hospital bed

Well once you've gone through it once, you can be sure it won't happen again. That's really the best thing about having your appendix removed.
Maybe the body just assumes there's no remedy, not being sentient by itself to understand surgery, so it keeps pain to a minimum knowing you're likely to be dead soon.
Thought I had a pulled muscle in my back....20 mins later I'm in the ER with a chest tube. 5 days later bi-lateral lung surgery. I felt I needed maybe an ibuprofen....not a fucking chest tube

The body actually has amazing diagnostic tools, you just don't know what they are.
Every doctor, nurse, paramedic, etc. can assess you just as much as you can (unless you are unconcious or altered) based off many simple things like skin signs, how slow or fast your heart is beating, how slow or fast you are breathing, knowing your medical history, etc. and have a pretty good idea what's going on.
In regards to your appendicitis, there are many simple maneuvers one could do to isolate it as a cause and a kind of pain that is specifically associated with appendicitis. Three simple "tests" (not including advanced tests such as a blood test) would be to cough, jump on one foot, or whether or not you have an appetite. If you cough or jump and land with pain, it increases your likelihood of having it. Rebound pain is also a major indicator.
My gallstones were undiagnosed for 2 years. They put it down as an anxiety attack, as I have that but it wasn't until I was hunched over barely able to breath in unbelievable agony that I was sent to the hospital and had my gallbladder removed.
They said its hard to tell because there aren't as many pain receptors in that area, so it could've been anything.

They never did any imaging? An ultrasound/X-Ray, etc. could show them quite easily.
Sounds like you may have had some lazy or not so great docs :/
I can't remember if they did any or not, this was awhile ago now, but if they did they were pretty lazy. Very frustrating, because it'd be off and on for awhile. Could be every morning for a few weeks, and then not happen again for a month or two.
Glad I got it out, I wouldn't wish that pain upon anyone. I would've rather have broken an arm.
The body has no way of knowing we were going to figure out how to cut it open and fix that stuff. I'd say the body making it tolerable until you'd suddenly die was a pretty good design choice all things considered.
This is, quite literally, one of my biggest fears. My pain scale is, putting it mildly, fucked up. Natural childbirth was a 5 both times. Currently passing a 6mm kidney stone and its only a 6. Boxer's break of left hand, a 2. (Just thought I sprained my finger.) I'm terrified I'll have a little pain in my side, ignore it and end being rushed to the hospital for a ruptured appendix.
In fairness, the appendix is one of the worst things for that. Because of the way the tissues of the torso are structured, the pain is of a different type in a different place depending on how far the inflammation has got.

I have to say my appendicitis was pretty good at warning me, there was not question that it was anything else.
I was feeling a bit sick the day before. Woke up the next morning and managed about 3 steps before collapsing on my own bedroom floor. My then gf had to dress me. Went to the doc, quick examination. Tells me to go to the ER. He told me "the moment I walked in and saw your face my first thought was to send you to the hospital"

Took my son to the ER for bad stomach pains. They admitted him and the surgeon scheduled an appendectomy for the next morning. The next morning, son was back to normal and the disappointment on the surgeon's face was so apparent that it pissed me off.

How did you get into surgery so fast?

Because the surgeons were awesome. The surgery was at about 2AM. It's an emergency situation. Without surgery the chances of me making it through the night would have been rather slim.
Makes you think of how far our knowledge has come and how good our doctors are. I had a similar experience with my appendix and a few hours before the operation i thought it was just a stomach bug, that thing was damn near exploding.
One day a pain started in my right lower abdomen and I grew concerned that it was appendicitis. Went to the hospital later that and the doctor did tests to see if that is what it was. They saw nothing on the scan, probably due to my weight, but said all other tests pointed positively to appendicitis so they got me into the OR. Turns out my appendix was inflamed but on top of that, I had ovarian cysts.

No you don't. I have a few doctors in the family. If there's on thing I learned from them if that there's technically always something wrong with you. Your HUD would always blink red.
I have a good friend who has a brain tumor the size of a gulf ball deep inside his brain. They discovered it by accident six years ago after a bike crash (he's in his mid-thirties now). Because it is so deep inside his brain a biopsy or operation is too risky and the doctors won't do anything about it until he starts developing symptoms.
Till now the tumor has remained pretty much stable (he has check-ups every six months) yet he knows he has a ticking time bomb inside his skull. The only thing the discovery seems to have given him so far is a lot of anxiety.

Not being concerned how you look can definitely be an improvement in dancing ability. I'd be shocked if you don't have friends that if they had to dance they just kind of stand there awkwardly. But given some alcohol they loosen up and move more freely.
Not for me, when I go clubbing I set out to get drunk and I've been told unsarcastically by people I'd just met that I was a good dancer (I genuinely thought people were being sarcastic the first couple times anyone mentioned my dancing because I'd never done any kind of dancing before I started clubbing), but when I'm sober, I just can't get into it at all.
At first I was like "That's a great idea!" but in reality I think the bars would move really slowly in most cases and would probably be discouraging to me.

Drinking is a progress bar that has indicators for things like "dancing well" and "liquid courage" but later things like "barfing everywhere" and "going home with a 80 year old woman with a potbelly." The most requested update is a marker for "memory loss"
Just think how depressing would it be to complete a task, only to see the progress bar not move, because what you didn't know is that person will never marry you or that promotion will never be yours!
How would the weight lifting exp bar handle the fact that a level up occurs over a period of time where no weight lifting occurs? After all, getting stronger is a result of healing used muscles.

The podcast Invisibilia did an episode on him that is available here. Relevant portion starts at 6:15.

Yeah, like as you talk to them, the information you learn gets listed in some database under their name. Like the codex in the Telltale Batman game (first thing that came to mind).

Reminds me of the episode of black mirror where everyone has eyes that record all the time and you can go back and watch memories to remind yourself of someones name and where you met them instantly.
I built a webapp for this. It really needs a mobile app to be useful, but I've been working on other projects. It's currently free with open registration, might get monetized in the future. https://socialite.ooo
Semi-related, if you haven't already you should REALLY check out Black Mirror, as a few episodes deal with similar concepts. Watch The Entire History of You in season 1, followed by the holiday season special White Christmas. It's on Netflix. The episodes are all independent of eachother so skipping straight to these ones is fine. Don't read up on anything first, you'll ruin it for yourself.
Only things you would be expected to know or ought to know. I wouldn't want it to return a Google search and find out they recently got arrested for drinking and driving. But, names, dates, certain facts. Yes, sign me up.
Oh! and how we know there or met them! Like if they work with us or in the same company. Or we went to school together. Or met at a party.
Maybe just a running "what I currently want to know in general window" probably fed off of things you have already learned but where spacing off/just cant remember.
I have a real problem remembering names. Even if I've heard it a dozen times. There's some sort of mental block in my brain that won't let me remember names.
I'm more likely to say "buddy", "man", "dude" (regardless of gender) than call them by their name. Mostly I try to avoid it altogether.

I'm more likely to remember a face and something interesting I perceive about them. But their name or any fact that they WANT me to remember about them...ha...right.
I remember a podcast where they interviewed Thad Starner who has been wearing a computer since 1993. He reports that his relationships were actually better for this reason. His computer would identify the person and bring up details from their last conversation. He was able to have more meaningful conversations because he could store and recall so much more data. Ugly link below. On mobile.
Trick I learned, if that happens, just turn to your companion and say something like, "Oh, this is {companion name}." They then always say their name to your companion. Sometimes they catch on but no one ever says anything and you avoid the super awkward pause.
When introducing people you know well to people you don't, try to have a drink or something to eat on hand. Try to get the unfamiliar people to come to you, and as they approach take a drink or a bite. Your companion will then have a chance to introduce themselves and you get a refresher in the names catagory.

Very much! Name of people I have met (not everyone, that's creepy) and how I know them. A couple of years back I carried out a twenty minute conversation with a guy, and only half an hour after we parted did I remember that we used to work together.
I'm terrible at remembering who and where, but usually I do remember that this is someone I'm supposed to know. At least I'm pretty good at faking it... I think.
Pro tip, introduce your companion by name and then stop talking. The person you're talking to will then introduce themselves and bam, you have their name.
I think the phrase is actually a little more nuanced- he's not saying that "I wasn't sick until I was" because symptoms are the signs that a disease is present- which don't necessarily show up immediately when you get sick.

Since you can't work it out, my meaning was it had no build up. Apparently symptoms usually show sooner, less severe. Mine went from 0 to 100 in one day.

Yeah and you can die in short order from it so appendicitis is decidedly more severe than stomach cancer even though stomach cancer is harder to treat.
I mean, if you're not trolling, I think he means the symptoms came explosively.
Like let's say I have brain cancer. Let's say I get a minor headache. Ok, no big deal. Next month, another one. Then a year later, migraine. Then the next year, slurred speech. Doctor time. Cancer.
Compared to:. Normal, migraine, seizure in the span of a week
Reminds me of the guy who had a brain tumor which prohibited him from retrieving memories, which meant he lost most of his short-term memory and all of his long term memory.
Then after a successful operation, his lost memories came flowing back to him because apparently they brain still stores everything. Only problem was that everything was in the wrong order, so his memory of his grand father dying came back before his memory of him even having a grand father. Which according to him made for a year of some really weird flashbacks.

The trick is that it goes from zero to "Oh my god it hurts" in a couple hours. I got mine when I was a little kid. I ate some plums from the back yard which weren't properly ripe yet, so it would make sense why my stomach wasn't feeling happy.
Surgeon neighbour took me to the hospital, did some tests, appendicitis, surgery an hour later.
The key is the phrase "one day", which implies immediacy. Normally diseases will grow over time, but appendicitis had almost no symptoms until OP almost died.
You'd be surprised how many people don't understand this.
Be sure to take your 800 mg Ibuprofen with food to protect your stomach. This drug increases the chances of you getting a stomach bleed or "ulcer", and taking it with food is the best way to reduce that risk, I would say.
"I've never had issues with that before, but thank you." - every person over 40

Yeah but appendicitis doesn't kill you in a day. He was unlucky to not have experienced symptoms until that late in the game.
Mine burst about six hours after I first started feeling pain. It was the most painful experience of my life. Completely redefined my scale for pain. On a scale of 1-10, appendicitis right before it burst is a 10, after it burst was a 7, and a broken bone is a 2, with everything else being some decimal lower than 1.
It was crazy how much better I felt after it burst. Objectively, it was the second most painful thing I've ever experienced, but I remember sighing with relief because of how much better it was compared to before.
While a ruptured appendix is dangerous, only a small percentage of people who have had it happen to them end up dying as a result.

Sepsis is a (potentially fatal) reaction to an infection, not the infection itself. So in your case, if you had an infection in your blood (bacteremia), that would be the presumed causal factor for the sepsis (unless they found infection elsewhere in your body that might have triggered it).
One night I thought I had terrible gas. Sat on the toilet for a bit to no avail. Took some gas reliever thinking it'd help. Puked it up. After some time of this I wake up my mom, as now the pain is definitely not gas, and I couldn't possibly sleep. She calls the on call nurse and they tell us to come in.
Go to the ER, get painkillers and try to sleep while they wait to tell me what is next. This was through an IV, which for some reason the first nurse had the hardest time to put into my arm. My veins are pretty noticeable. So more pain, until the IV. They bring in this awful, disgusting fluid I'm supposed to drink (they added crystal light but I think that made it worse. It was a lemony hell) and they said "you have to drink all 3. Honestly this stuff tasted like it was more likely to kill me then whatever I had. After 2.5 cups of this stuff I tell the nurse that if I have anymore I'll lose it all. She says "well you really only need one, but 3 makes it easier. You're fine." To which I almost responded by throwing it at her. But I was tired and in moderate pain still.
They wheel me to the CT scan room, so the scan (the liquid was to "make my insides light up" in the scan). After a bit they come in and say it's appendicitis. A couple hours pass, go into the OR, next I know I'm in a room. Missed the whole day of school, got to eat some blended chicken noodle soup and frosties (basically a milkshake that Wendy's serves for those that don't know, the hospital one tasted identical) later on for dinner, and watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off with my dad that night. Was only there for a day, had a few days off school. All in all not the worst.

They was flavoring the barium with that god awful fake bubblegum flavor stuff in my day. Now I understand they don't add anything anymore, hold your nose and chug it.
My local diagnostic center will let you bring your own beverage to mix or you get it straight up. At least that's what they tell me, since my insurance will only approve an MRI without contrast and I don't see any reason to go on with it if the doctor only approved an MRI with contrast. Yay insurance...at least I'm feeling slightly better these days...maybe it's nothing. I guess I'll find out when I die.
These days a diagnostic scan is more likely to be gastrografin, not barium at least in my parts of the world. We never use barium in a case where a perforation may be suspected (and it would be suspected in this case). You usually have to drink at least 30 ounces of it for a CT. They both taste like shit, though.
I used to hate walking into rooms with 3 large styrofoam cups of that shit, but I was at least nice and mixed that shit with straight juice (if the patient wasn't diabetic).
Pretty similar case for me. I was leaving the kitchen after eating a bedtime snack of a cheese stick and some imitation crab. I took a step and felt this weird gurgling sensation in my abdomen. I too thought it was gas at first or maybe something was wrong with that fake crab meat. I tried to go to sleep but the pressure was building up. I laid on my stomach thinking that'd help squeeze out the gas. Instead it just hurt like hell.
Luckily I was home visiting from college after the spring semester had ended. I woke my mom up and told her something was wrong. By the time she got up and dressed I was in a cold sweat on the floor. We rushed to the ER (it was a bit after midnight at this point) and the doctor there told me I was just having bowel spasms and that I could go home. But my mom is a nurse and she knew something was wrong so she wouldn't let them send me home without scanning me.
Thankfully I didn't have to drink anything. They just put that fluid in me with an IV. The results came back showing my appendix had already burst and they had to rush me into surgery. I'll never forget that ER doctor's face when he told me the results. He knew I would have died that night if I had listened to him and left. I only hope that he's learned from that experience.
I have eaten some weird things in my life, but that sounds absolutely horrible.
Blended chicken noodle soup doesn't sound like it's be that bad, it's just everything in the soup all at once. I was wrong. The texture pretty bad, and the flavor is the most bland. Overall just not enjoyable.
Also, you can't disrespect a frosty like that. It's just not something you can do and still call yourself a human.

I kind of think the cancer would be more of a three and appendicitis would be the 5.
5 being a "fix this now or you die" (eg: venomous snake bite, stroke etc.) And the 3 being "fix this because it will kill you eventually(probably pretty quickly)".
I think the point is "how bad is your current status." So appendicitis would ramp up and then become a 5 when the appendix ruptures. Same with cancer. As it metastasizes or does whatever horrible thing it does, it goes up to a five.
Personally, I'd rather my HUD just tell me my exact diagnosis and how serious it is. Maybe a little death clock with it too.
I had no pain when I went to bed, then I woke up and my sides hurt, and I had trouble walking. My mom said it was just indigestion and that I had to fart. So I shook my stomach all around. I then went 3 days before going to the doctors office, where a fucking intern told me it was nothing. I played 2 hockey games that day, then woke up the next morning legit unable to stand up at all. I went to the hospital and was told that if I had come in any later; even at midday, there was a strong chance I would die. My advice to you is that if you have an aching pain where your appendix is, go get that shit removed ASAP, it's not a joke.
Had a ruptured appendix and emergency surgery when I was 11. It was brutal, to the point I don't remember a lot of the pain because I blacked out a couple of times. All I remember is intense pain and throwing up uncontrollably. Then when I stopped throwing up I was still having dry heaves that left me doubled over. Do not recommend
My appendix burst whilst I was in the ER waiting for my name to be called for the pain I was already feeling but after the burst I felt alright and just went home. HUGE MISTAKE. Hours later, pain is 10x worse and I could barely move, was in the hospital for 11 days and had three surgeries for the sepsis. Still alive.

At the hospital they say it was nearly burst

A lot of them probably are that way. In many cases the patient doesn't start to feel any pain until it is already inflamed. Even then the pain doesn't get bad enough to indicate something serious until it is very inflamed. Then too many people (myself included) wait until they are all but incapacitated to go in because they hate hospitals.
No lie that shit comes on quick. My best friend's appendix exploded at school back in the day. They had to open her up and vacuum out all the nasty / rotten / pus material from her body in the ER. She came super close to dying. We were just sitting there and she started screaming and blacked out. Scariest shit ever tbh because it was completely unexpected in the middle of a quiet part of class.
Mine burst. Was able to go to the hospital just fine and there was a decent amount of time between the burst and the actual work done. Was a really nasty experience overall, plus I was 10.

Can confirm. Doctors misdiagnosed my appendicitis as a stomach bug. A few days later it ruptured and I nearly died.
I was in urgent care for a while. Spent a good portion of my summer vacation in the hospital with tubes coming out of my stomach to drain the nasty pus buildup inside my body. Fun times.
It seems like that's everybody who had appendicitis' story. And yet nobody ever seems to die from it. Now I'm not saying it's a conspiracy between Er doctors and ambulance companies, but it's a conspiracy between ER doctors and ambulance companies.
I don't think many people call an ambulance for appendicitis because it's very hard to gauge what it is by yourself. Granted, I don't have any statistics on this.
Also, how would it be a conspiracy if you're in excruciating pain and they perform surgery and cure you?
Ah true. I forgot to take in account treatment. I was thinking along the lines of, "I would be dead right now if I was not treated for appendicitis, but I could still live a while with cancer."
I mean I guess, but if you get symptoms at 3am on a Saturday, you need to go straight to the hospital if it's appendicitis, whereas cancer can wait until Monday if you like.

unless they are the doctors that treated me for it. fuckers were only 90% sure that is what it was, since they "couldn't" get an accurate CT scan reading. My appendix had already ruptured at that point, to where surgery took 2 more hours to clean all the toxins out. I could have died because of Three stars.
Yep stereotypes are fun. We also like non offensive easy listening, can't jump, dance like seizures, and have dark plans to subjugate and rule the world.
First of all, why misquote me? I said "white" not US.
Second of all, the joke comes from a common stereotype of white people having a relatively low tolerance for spice compared to those individuals who are native to cultures which utilize spice more regularly such as Mexicans or Indians, it has nothing to do with what side of the pond your from.

No shit it's come from French. Doesn't mean it's not part of southern culture. But thank God you told me; not like my great grandparents only spoke something called Cajun French, so thanks for clearing that up. Also, "white people" isn't a nationality.
My stomach is fine, I genuinely can't think of the last time food gave me issues (I eat a wide variety of types of food), but Taco bell fucked me over for a whole day. First (and last) time I ever had it
Can't think of the last time aside from Taco bell. Genuinely aside from it I can't think of any other time I've had issues with food, and I've eaten a shittonne of different cuisine.
Wasn't a goalpost move though, I just wasn't clear enough with what I mean. Taco bell is the only thing I can think of that has given me issues. Which was the whole point of the conversation anyway, so it would be natural to assume that is what I meant.

lol sorry. Ill explain instead of being douchy. Its not spicy but its a grade of food you couldnt even get for your dog in Europe. Your body cant process a lot of it so it goes straight through people as healthy as lance armstrong in about 2 minutes.
No douchiness detected in the first comment, don't worry. How is that legal? In western Europe the lowest quality food is still high quality, unless the producer actually disobeys the law and scams people. It happened once, when a producer put horse meat in something that was supposed to not contain it. Still edible and healthy, though; just a lie.

I'm no expert at all but the gist is that lawmakers are persuaded by lobbyists to allow or not allow certain food ingredients. most of the time the lawmakers tend to take the legal bribes from them and vote for or submit laws that they dont really understand. It's just our brand of corruption that is supposed to be countered by the free market which implies that if people didnt want it they wouldnt buy it. If you ask me, it's better corruption than you find in most of the world, though its still toxic as fuck.
edit: also the FDA does things I dont understand to counter this. But it doesnt seem to be very effective.
edit 2: because of what i meantioned before lots of wierd food dies and fillers are allowed in the food (think worse kebab meet). Also, American meat farms are pretty freaky situations and we feed a lot of wierd shit to the animals. Our fda isnt as good at protecting us as the EU's department for that.
I never understood that about your country: you have pharmacists telling doctors and patients that their medicine is the best; and now I learn of food-producers having a hand at forming the law to their wills.
What the actual fuck? The whole point of the law is that it's there for the good of the people. How the hell can a corporation (or anyone) influence this?
To the closet to put on your big boy pants. Or big girl pants. Or big Apache attack helicopter pants. ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ I don't know who you are or how you identify.
But I do know you don't go somewhere for a stubbed toe. You curse like a sailor and walk it off. Like God intended.
I was gonna say a two, but then I started thinking I'd probably stub my toe for free Taco Bell towards the end of the month.
Which brings me directly to five...
I had it in january. They treated it with antibiotics and I live in NYC. It's not common but it does happen. No issues since. USA is one of the few countries that jump to surgery over antibiotics for appendicitis.
That's about a 1/2 star. Hurts for a little while, but soon forgotten about. Taco Bell you you get a wake up call the next day in the form of burning asshole.
Or that mysterious sudden chest (or elsewhere) pain that goes away again just as quickly. When I was a kid, I thought it was growing pains. But now I'm going on 40 and it still happens sometimes.

To be fair, it also goes from surgery to your body trying to commit suicide without your brain's consent. I think on a five start scale that's a fair stepping stone.
I think four would be a limb that is going to need amputation since that's pretty a permanent impairment until you get the awesome prosthetic add-on that ties into the HUD and then you get a new interface with all the sensory stats and I think I just invented a new way of cheating at the Olympics.

I've broken my pinky toe twice. Once from running it into a doorframe. And the other from stubbing it on a piano. That last time I was drunk and didn't notice it was broken till the morning after. Both times I couldn't walk properly for at least a month. That first time it happened was the most painful experience of my life thus far.
As a Californian that eats real Mexican food like five times a week, taco bell is not spicy. That fire out of your asshole is their low quality food not the how spicy it is.
That would've been very handy the last couple of days, I fucking stubbed my toe and it hurt like a son of a bitch, went blue, purple and then a weird shade of red... Would've been nice to have an on board diagnostic machine that could've said, "don't worry about it, it's just your toe being weird.
Sounds like a bruise, which is generally harmless. On your toe, however, it could very well be fractured. Have it checked. It'll heal quickly and might set wrongly.
Yeah, I know the feeling. But when the doc has to fracture it again because it healed shittily, I think you'll be thankful for some non-consoling truth, haha.
It's the only fast food place I can think of where fresh vegetables are more than a garnish. That being said, that makes it both healthier and more prone to food borne illness.
Why is there always someone who jumps to Taco Bell's defense when its brought up? Like, is it really that hard to imagine that meat that looks like sludge might not agree with every single person's stomach?

I never hear about people who legitimately can't eat it either.
Appendicitis is definitely three stars because it can kill you fairly rapidly, especially if the appendix ruptures, but it isn't that dangerous because it hurts so bad that everyone goes to the hospital when their appendix gets infected.
I would save four stars for stuff that can kill you very quickly, but you can be revived. This would be a fairly narrow category, but has issues such as MIs and serious trauma.
Five stars is the mother of all illnesses - one that will kill you in an instant with no hope of recovery. Take an abdominal aortic aneurysm - once that thing ruptures you will bleed out and die before anyone even knows you're ill.

Bonus: it tells you why you have the pain so you know what the fuck you can do about it.
I hope nanotechnology and brain implants will someday give us this advantage. Knowing your body's status w/o having to visit a doctor and live at every moment would be revolutionary.
That would be great right now, since I've had a muscle twitching right below my ribcage for like 3 hours now, and I'd like to know whether it's just nerves misfiring or if I'm about to explode.

The way pain is reported for internal damage is wonky as all hell.
Take heart attacks. The most common symptom is pain/discomfort in the left arm, but that pain can be pretty much anywhere from your navel to your nose, front to back.
That's assuming you even feel any pain/discomfort in the first place
That's because pain is supposed to protect you against exterior threats. A couple generations ago a if a person knew they were having a heart attack they'd still be shit out of luck.

Given the amount of pain we have for some things that aren't serious, I would doubt whether the body has any idea how serious anything actually is. After all, isn't pain supposed to be our alarm system for when something is bad? So a lot of pain would be something really really bad that needs immediate attention. Except 99.9% of the time it's gas or a stubbed toe or a headache or cramps or something else that wasn't really alarming at all and you're like okay, I get it, if you could stop hurting now, that would be great.

I'm half deaf and I always use this when I can't understand someone. Not recommended because you always end up in a dark alley wondering what you agreed to
Oh god I hate that. That happens way too often to me.
I think it might be because people aren't speaking clearly enough, loud enough, or I'm just not paying them my full attention (listening while working etc.)
Edit: This ear's my most up voted comment lol <==pun
I've been thinking the same thing for a few years now. I'll be able to hear the ceiling fan whirring in the next room but I sometimes can't understand what the person within arms reach is saying.
Like, is everyone mumbling or does my ability to process verbal sounds just dip out sometimes?
I have Auditory Processing Disorder and that describes it pretty well, actually.
I can pick out a song playing over the radio in a loud restaurant no problem, but have no idea what my dinner partners are saying. Tiny humming in the other room? On it. What my boyfriend says to me from across the couch? Who knows.
How was this diagnosed? Is there anything that can be done for it?
I ask, because this sounds exactly like me. My husband and kids talking to me? I have to be watching them speak to understand what they're saying. The light bulb humming that no one else can hear? So loud and annoying.

There are clinics that can test your hearing and they basically put you in a sound proof cabinet thing with head phones and play a bunch of frequencies, you press a button if you hear the sound and they can make basic diagnoses based off what you could hear.
I have sensori-neural deafness. I can hear voices but the words themselves blur and make it hard to understand what's being said. It's caused by damage or mutations in the individual nerves that carry sound signals from the ear to the brain. Personally mine is genetic and my nerves grew in broken/missing, but damage can happen to cause the same thing.
It could also be a processing disorder but don't discount plain old deafness.

How do you make it better though? Spending money on tests to find out I why I can't understand a damn thing people say half the time is kind of worthless if there's nothing you can do to fix it.
I don't think there's much that can be done. I just be annoying and lean in really close so I can hopefully catch more of what they're saying that way.
Although mine isnt super severe, I think I mean I do have no basis for what normal hearing is, but there might be options if it's really bad.
Actually There is. While they won't 'cure' Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), there are a few treatments that can significantly help. The two I would recommend are the Tomatis Method and the Forbrain. Both are similar, working I think on a theory concerning APD and bone conduction with hearing.
Tomatis basically involves wearing headphones with a bone conduction node at the top of your head while listening to music that continuously changes volume and such, retraining the brain to focus. Typically 2 hrs a day for 2 weeks, in 3 batches. It's bloody tiring but I actually found improvements with understanding people speech, focusing on conversations at parties, and not being so tired from everyone talking. Huge improvements in day to day stuff.
Forbrain is basically a microphone connected to bone conductive earphones. It's slower to see results but you can buy it yourself (Specialists hire out Tomatis - gets expensive) and can use it for longer.
I'm sure there are other options as well, it's just APD isn't well known so no one is talking about it. But it doesn't need to stay as bad as it is.

What my boyfriend says to me from across the couch? Who knows.

It's weird, I can't hear people occasionally. I mean, for the most part, it's fine- but at times it's so bad I don't think it's possible that I've got working ears.
Yet I can hear a song on the radio, and with 85% accuracy on the first listen, get the lyrics right. And I'm already well on my way to memorizing it.

Ditto. Once had a lunch interview in a crowded restaurant. Somehow I kicked butt despite not understanding half of what the interviewer said/asked.
APD is a controversial diagnosis these days. From what I recall from school it seems there's definitely something there, but the science isn't really ironed out and the tests are quite imprecise. I've never known or talked to someone with APD so I'd love to hear more about your experience. I'd be happy to share some articles I have about the controversy.
Mention this to your doctor/pharmacist, you might have excess/impacted cerumen (ear wax). That could explain why you have no trouble hearing the fan in the next room as it is more muted/bass than a conversation. (bass is less attenuated by it than treble. Just like when blocking your ears with your fingers.. Lower frequencies/vibrations will be easier to hear that higher frequencies)
I actually had this, went to my ENT for my sinus and tonsil issues and he took out a chunk of earwax from each of my ears. Did not know that would be there, was pretty freaked out.
If you hang around loud spaces like busy bars for example you can lose hearing in the vocal/mid range. Making it easy to hear somesounds but voices can get lost. As someone that works in nightclubs for years i can hear most things fine still but struggle immensly to hear what the person talking to me is saying.

Alternative suggestion: get your ears checked out for wax if you're not an ardent cleaner of them. I have tinnitus anyway but when my ears were clogged enough to cause proper hearing loss it was a lot like that, and exacerbated the tinnitus. I only really noticed how bad that shit was when I moved into a house with no CRT displays, I can't pretend it's that any more.

No, you're definitely not the only one with this. I feel like this might be natural or something.
I have sensori-neural deafness. I can hear voices but the words themselves blur and make it hard to understand what's being said. It's caused by damage or mutations in the individual nerves that carry sound signals from the ear to the brain. Personally mine is genetic and my nerves grew in broken/missing, but damage can happen to cause the same thing.
Ask for a referral to an audiologist and they will be able to give you any needed tests and let you know about any therapies or equipment that might help. Even just knowing and understanding where your problem lies can make a huge difference so I highly encourage anyone who is worried about their hearing to have a test. It's really simple, takes under an hour and is totally non-invasive.
Wow that sounds pretty accurate, and my grandpa has complained about the same thing. I took an occupational hearing test a few years ago and was told I have excellent hearing (albeit, from an old man who said he wished his hearing was as good as mine).
Yeah, I've had the standard hearing tests (beeps and tones) and while I don't score brilliantly on them I score as having mild-to-moderate deafness but I function as someone with moderate-to-severe.
They had to wait until I was old enough to pick up some language skills and do a different type of test on me. I would sit in a silent room opposite someone who would read out a list of words (with a bit of paper or their hand covering their mouth to make sure I wasn't just lipreading), I had to repeat the words back to them and through that they can get an idea of what sounds you are missing by what words you get wrong.
For me I normally only get 2-3 right out of 20, until they take their hand away, then I get 20/20 as I'm a pro lipreader.
I feel ya. There's this one time my talkative friend was telling me this story and I zoned out. Tuned back in to him speaking some foreign language in a straight face and I panicked thinking "what the shit!" I stared blankly at him and just mumbled a huh? Turns out he was telling me about some french saying or something. It still gives me a good laugh up to today.
For me it always seems like I'm probably hearing them, but not understanding. Like when someone says something, and then it's only 5 secs later you figure out what they said.
Yeah I usually figure out what they said right after I ask "what?" And they start repeating themselves. I hate when that happens but I feel awkward just starting at them silently for a couple seconds before responding lol
You don't hear every frequency at the same competency.
I took a hearing test and I can't hear at the frequency people talk either, but I can hear everything else just fine, especially the stuff everyone else fails at.
Although I can still hear people talk, it's definitely hit or miss a lot of the time.
Everyone does it, but nobody talks about it for a very long time... As in, this situation happens like all the time, but nobody brings it up because they don't care and a "yeah" generally fixes it
You might, I have what's called sensorineural deafness, aka background deafness and I'm that guy who always has to ask people to repeat things because i just can't hear properly in busy or moderately loud environments.
I thought the same thing for years. I had my hearing tested because I thought something was wrong with me. Turns out my hearing is actually perfect. ENT told me to tell my friends to stop mumbling. I have noticed more and more how lazy people have become when articulating words.
Your hearing isn't the only thing that could affect that though, there are processing disorders and such that could lead to an inability to understand spoken language while having perfectly fine hearing.
Thank god I'm deaf in one ear and can use that as an excuse, because this happens to me daily. I generally do a very exaggerated head turn to point my good ear at them as a reminder that I'm half fucking deaf and they need to speak up.
I've lived like that for years, with all the problems you guys are describing. It turns out I have an auditory processing disorder- so if you think something is wrong, go get yourself checked out by an audiologist. It's probably not your hearing that's the problem. (Just thought this might help someone who's looking for answers)
I think it's a problem with cognition. I struggle with it and have noticed that it's just me. You hear the words yet cannot distill them into thoughts. What I do is make a consensus effort to stop my thought process and pay close attention. It helps but I still have issues.
Its hard for me to process what people are saying sometimes. Especially when listening to music, I can hear the melody and everything else besides the voice. It takes a lot of concentration to focus on what people are saying
Are you telling me native English speakers also experience this? Thank goodness, I thought it was just my lazy brain refusing to auto-translate or something. Thick accents makes it x10 more difficult.
My brother went to the doctor and found out he had 30% hearing loss because of water in his ears (it was taken out).
That kinda freaked me out because if I have hearing loss, I might not know about it.
Oftentimes I find myself unable to understand what Thera are saying.
What annoys me is that they know what's happening, it's happened to them before... But the continued use to say it exactly the same way and at the same volume. It just reinforces you not understanding them.
It's easy to change the words or the way you're saying them!
If it happens all the time you could get your hearing checked. That's how I learnt I have an audio processing disorder that means my brain has decided that all misc background noise is insanely more important than what I am trying to listen to.
My brain tends to fill in the gaps when I don't hear someone clearly and I have to use context to figure out if I misheard them or if they really said "the Hindu kissed a chimp" or "did you try the crispy shrimp?"
Ever had a hearing test done? It may surprise you how bad your hearing could be. I'm 26 and have nearly 50% hearing loss in both ears. I've been wearing hearing aids for over a year now and it still surprises me how bad my hearing was before (still is technically) and how well I can actually understand people now. If you have bad hearing it's like living in a bubble and a lot of people don't even realise this because why would their hearing be bad? This is how they've always perceived the world so they don't know better.
Hearing aids changed my life and I'm always game to spread the word.
I doubt it will be as serious as my issues but it never hurts to get it checked out. My ears are so damaged because I had a lot of infections when I was little and then a serious one when I was 13y/o set the whole thing in motion. Have had three surgeries on my left ear but due to my body healing badly there's not much they can do so I went for hearing aids.
You saying that people never seem to speak clearly or that you're not paying attention made me think of how I felt before my hearing issues were discovered. Like I said I doubt your situation is as serious as mine but just wanted to give a heads up :)
Oh no people do speak clearly to me -- just sometimes people aren't speaking loudly/clearly enough for me to be able to hear them (bearing in mind this was over the sound of cars or other background noise like in the classroom so... :P). Paying attention part is because background noise and then trying to do work (so not bothering to try processing their words, at least probably... Hopefully...)
I will consider a hearing test though (maybe not now, but I'll keep it in mind for later in life). Thanks for heads up!

When I say "what" I don't mean to say it again in the EXACT SAME FUCKING WAY. Exact same volume, tone, etc? Are you FUCKING kidding me? You might recall that I didn't understand you when you said it like that. Alter the damn pitch of your voice...do SOMETHING different. God.
I work in a grocery store and people constantly ask me where something is, and I have no clue what they are saying, and I end up telling them I don't know where it is.

I got so screwed by this. Lady was talking to me. I couldn't understand so I nodded, smiled and said "Oh, yeah?" in a cheerful, interested tone. Turns out she was telling me her parents died.
That's every conversation I have with my wife. I can hear my 2 year old daughter waking up on the 2nd floor of our townhouse, but "I'm deaf" because I can't hear her mutter a conversation topic facing away from me while I put away pots and pans.

Just choose the sarcastic option. It's always the right answer.
Story of my life since I've lost part of my hearing due to some nerve thing. Double-edged sword, professionally, IMO. With a higher level person, I sound dumb and as though I wasn't paying attention.
With everyone else, it sounds condescending apparently because I'm asking them to repeat something. I always try to follow up with "Sorry, I missed that because of.." stupid excuses like static or someone talking over them. It does let people know when their ideas are dumb though. I usually catch onto the tail end of "OH I'm glad I talked it out because now it doesn't make sense."
I have this lady with a thick accent come to the drive thru I work at, and I can't understand what she ordered so I try to help and use yes or no questions but instead of answering she just repeats her whole order and I hate her

Oh god this just reminded me of a super awkward memory.
When we were first moving into our house there was a bunch of paper work and there were always a few guys inspecting something to make sure it was all up to code.
One day 2 men came over to inspect the foundation and the 2nd one really had nothing to do so we were making small talk.
The guy had a really thick southern accent and it was hard to understand what he was saying at times. At some point the conversation switched to my dog and he began to tell a story about his dog, I couldnt understand a damn thing he said but I knew it was a dog story so I just sort of exhaled out my nose a bit and smiled when he finished telling his story.
Turns out the story he was telling was about how somebody fed his dog broken glass and it died a terrible painful death. I laughed at his dog dying.
I hate it when you say 'what' and they repeat what they said in the exact same tone and volume that they did before. I once had someone do this to me 5 times before I gave up.
Im a kindergarten teacher in Norway and i'm from Denmark. The languages are fairly similar but then again not at all. Children doesn't have that "yeah :D" thing. They just go "huh?" "what?" "come again?" until I manage to pronounce something properly. Best language school you'll ever get.
I never understand people who speak super fast and mumbled, but when you say what like 6 times they still speak super fast and mumbled. What about the first 5 times made you think I would understand your ass on the 6th try?

I would happily take my HUD and give it to my GF for this exact reason. She says, "what?" after every single thing I say, no matter how loud, slow, and articulate I am. It's the most aggravating thing about her. Somewhere along her life she decided not to pay attention to someone talking and just ask, "what?" when they are done.
I've even experimented with it. Started the convo very loudly. Then when she asks, "what?" and I repeat it, I say it rush and at half the volume and she can hear me.
You could really mess with people on that one, sit by a bunch of forgeiners and then listen into their conversations and not have to worry in the slightest.
Don't ever feel bad about asking them to speak more clearly, say you genuinely aren't saying it to give them shit, but you need them to pronounce their goddamn fuckin words right

Not if the voice gets subtitled to exactly what you hear.
So you wouldn't understand what you read either and it wouldn't help that much at all.
Imagine being forced into said "talk dimension" cutscene every time someone wanted to talk to you though, whether or not you actually wanted to talk to them.
On the other hand, having dialogue options - assuming they're the 3/New Vegas style ones where it shows everything you're going to say, rather than a two-word summary - would be pretty helpful, assuming the system works by giving you things you plausibly would have said anyway. Say a customer comes up and asks where a high-priced item is, and your experience tells you that they are totally a thief. Your dialogue options would then be, depending on your skill build of course:
"<Lie> Oh, those are over by (place that Loss Prevention patrols every five minutes)."
"[Intimidate] Nice backpack. I'm guessing you could stick a lot of merchandise in there, huh?"
"[Charisma 3/7] Uh... maybe it's over there? Let me come with you to look for it, or something."
"Go bother someone else. Can't you see I'm flagging for a forklift here?"
I've always had those style options in 4 because I got a mod before even starting the game that put it in, it's pretty great to never have experienced how bad it is in vanilla 4.
Your view would just force its way to the person talking to you even if they haven't reached you yet so youre stuck there till they finish heir walk cycle and then talk cycle
Nah, you're thinking too small. I want Life is Strange dialog instances where you can take as long as you want to think of a response before having to actually roll the cameras and say it.
I'm sitting right next to three Hispanic co workers who always dip into Spanish no matter where we are. We can be talked together about work and they'll just dip into another language where I can't follow. I'm positive 90% of the time it's nothing I care to hear.
But the number of times someone will say something and they'll giggle while someone looks at me makes me really want to know.

I work at a teaching center in China and I'm literally the only person here that doesn't speak Chinese. The worst is when I hear my name and I have no idea what the context is.
I'm a bit hard of hearing and I use closed captioning on everything I watch. I also sometimes mishear my girlfriend, so when she found out I use closed captioning on everything, she asked if I wished I could turn closed captioning on for her talking. It would be useful, mind you, but she said it out of frustration and so it was rather insulting, because she's long been aware that I have problems with my hearing.
Just subtitles in the language they speak if you understand that language, or in your native language if you don't, with natural switching like in a movie
My boss has a habit of talking to himself during work discussions, where he deliberates all possibilities. Most of the time what he wants us to do with the situation is hidden in that muted blabber. This would be such great help!!
Since I work in refrigeration service, and am still half an apprentice, I am often standing outside of thick metal cabinets while my quiet-voiced (but short-tempered) boss has his head inside the previously mentioned thick metal cabinet. I was gonna say something about having a meter for sleep deprivation, but I like your idea a lot better. If never have to say "what" or get yelled at for saying "what" again.

Is it even legal under Reddit law to top-level reply to your own AskReddit thread?
I'd love to have toggle-able subtitles that only subtitle words or phrases you don't know and can't figure out from context, like the "define" function on Kindle. That would be a really cool way to learn and practice a language.
Depends on if it shows every objective or just the quest end. If I'm saving up for a vacation, that quest arrow is pointing me to New Zealand :) Would help keep my eye on the prize when things get tough.

Could probably toggle it to be the New Zealand one as an end, or to the place where you can advance that the fastest (passport place, job, talking to friends etc.)
I was a "Trump"et "Major" in college. I've been using this username for 5 years on various platforms. It's annoying that the Donald had to fuck it up for me.
But it's not pointing to nz. You don't have a quest marker pointing to the final boss, it's to each individual task leading to it. So the marker would point to a keyboard or workstation or something.
It depends. Usually if you don't have a loading screen in between it will point to the ultimate goal. I'm envisioning it as Skyrim, and I believe that was the case.
I'd recommend staying the FUCK away from me (Till, like, November or something cause summer is half decent)

Totally, welcome. Come visit r/newzealand to help focus your mind and get used to the nz way of doing things. See you soon! Just don't forget your towel.
I went a while at work with nothing to do, essentially making my own work and trying to look like I was doing something. I could have use a quest marker then.
I was thinking an arrow to the copier, then to your desk, Jane's office, your desk, bathroom, break room, your desk, Jane's office, Todd's office, your desk, the copier, Andrew's cubical, and so on.... If you had an office job.
I'm thinking more of a specific situation where everything seems peaceful. Maybe you're relaxing in the game, you've completed a bunch of quests, and you're expecting some cutscene or whatever. Then all of a sudden "Survive the night" pops up on your screen and you're scrambling to get ahold of your inventory and figure out who or what is about to attack you, and how you can survive it.
Considering there's no soundtrack in real life (unless you have something playing music), can you imagine how freaky it would be?
You're holed up in your vacation home, scrambling to arm yourself in some fashion. It's dark outside, and way too quiet. You're checking inventory, and pausing to glance around occasionally and listen. But you don't know what's coming, or where it is.
That's the second most frightening part. Finally realizing what the threat is, and that you have to survive is obviously the worst part.

Dragon Age: Origins has something kinda like that. In DA:O, your hub world is your campsite, and you just travel there whenever you need/want to. Once you complete enough main quests, the next time you go there you get ambushed by the enemy. Unfortunately it's not a very difficult fight and it only happens once, but...it's pretty surprising.

What was it, "I don't have the firepower, but I have the mass."? Something like that. Or when the crazy can't with the kukri is manning the turret, gets pulled out and GUTTED by a laser sword, but still kills the fucker. Or just the end scene in general.
"Oh hey we've got a great competitive shooter franchise that everyone loves that's about even starting playing field, precise aim, and general lack of randomness. How about we make it so that everyone starts with a different abilities, make it so that any mid to long range firefight becomes completely random even with precision weapons, and also completely neuter the entirety of competitive scene. Yeah that'll be great for the last halo game in the series."
Reach's multiplayer was terrible compared to most other halo games. As a standalone game maybe I wouldn't look at it as bad, but it made some of the most retarded design decisions ever when it came to multiplayer. (Also why the hell did they take away so many fan favorite custom games options, like alpha zombie and nade regen?)
What? Armor lock alone ruined the game. Let's not even talk about the Jetpack or invis.
Tbh, if they'd have kept the BR, or at least not implemented the foolish reticle bloom, and ditched AAs from jump, it would probably still be the major Halo game being played.
I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Everything you've said is true. Reach as a halo game was terrible, which is sad because it could've been so much better if not for a few design choices.
Ignoring that dumb shit, personally I liked Halo Wars. I wouldn't even rank it with the shooters though; it's an entirely different genre of game. Can't be compared.
By far the best ending to any FPS I've ever played. Making the ending of a prequel is hard: fans know what happen, everything is sort of on the rail of destiny. There's something about being in Noble 6's position in the end though, really struck me. I'm not even that big a fan of the series, but finishing that campaign in college is something that'll always stick with me.
I was just thinking it would be great to have a little pop-up reminder when I get off track. Walking to the office to find stamps - get distracted by piles of paper "You are here to find stamps. Put down the other paper".
You should read the duology Daemon and FreedomTM by Daniel Suarez. About halfway through the first novel (about a rogue bot invented by a dead billionaire to create a second "shadow economy") everyone participating wears AR shades that have Quest markers and HUDs of various types. Plus a bunch of other ideas from other suggestions from this thread (like the "name web above the head" suggestion, or the "My health status" suggestion)

Just listened to the audiobooks. Really interesting concept.
Yea, I always thought it'd make a great summer popcorn blockbuster; market it as Skynet meets the Matrix meets the Bourne movies... but hey, I could be wrong... ;)
At work, point to desk, point to laptop, point to compose new message button, point to each key you have to type to write an email. That might actually save me a lot if anxiety.
On tutorial island on Runescape, I got stuck outside the Quest House for 2 hours because I didn't know I had to toggle run on before being able to enter it.
One of the coolest things about Chrono Cross was the save points. The one in your hometown has a line in front of it.
An NPC tells you that if you're ever unsure about what to do, you should use it, and it will remind you what you were doing (in case you took a break from the game).
It's revealed later on that a time-travelling AI is in charge of the messages every person receives. It's been giving the entire region quest objectives to manipulate people into creating the right conditions for its plans to succeed.
So who's deciding what's a quest, and what I should be ignoring?
Until suddenly you can't find the quest marker because you don't have one because your life has no true direction anymore, so you just feel stuck and stay where you are.
That would rock for me as a camp councillor. I am always forgetting my schedule. A quest directory and minimap would be so perfect. A little quest arrow could float over the kid who needs help or attention the most, and I'd always know if I'd not looked at a certain kid for a prolonged amount of time.
"Hmmm....what did I come into this room for?? Well if I go to that quest marker I'm sure I'll remember....nope....nope this still doesn't help...I know I'm supposed to be here but I still can't recall why..."
This would make my job so much easier. I do a delivery job and sometimes I have to do routes that I don't know. With this I would always know the route and the fastest way to do it.
As someone prone to panic and paranoid anxiety (the "am i forgetting something" type), I'd have more quest markers than witcher 3 after completing the game only doing story mode but accepting every quest along the way.
Also living with this problem- it truly is. I've found that Adderall helps me a ton, like God bless that pill or else I wouldn't be able to leave my bed, literally. Hope you find something that helps.
Get checked for sleep apnea if you haven't already. You may not have any of the risk factors but still have it. I've been using methylphenidate to keep myself going a lot during the day and found out recently I had sleep apnea. Hoping that with treatment, I won't constantly feel exhausted all the time (and therefore need stimulants less)
I got a sleep study done a few years ago and pretty much all the report said was "does not have sleep apnea". Like, well thanks, but what about the, like, 14 times I woke up while I was there?
It's one of those things I've been meaning to go back and look more into, but I'm kind of afraid of the answer, and I know what (at least) half of the answer is going to be anyway, and my sleep issues aren't like, life ruiningly terrible, just bad enough to occasionally ruin days/make me cry out of frustration a couple times a month/waste a dozen or so hours a week in bed. The more mild medical issues can be such a pain to diagnose.
Well if you have any sort of allergies or nasal congestion (stuff blocking up your nose), that can make it way worse I think. Basically while I was living in California, it was difficult and I was trying to figure it out, but not as a priority - then I moved to Washington, DC and my allergies and fatigue got worse and I have had to address it because I was getting to the point where it was becoming impossible to function.
The diagnosis phase is a massive pain in the ass. Before/just after the sleep study, I got a ton of blood tests to rule things out, saw multiple types of doctors, had appointment after appointment - no fun at all. Especially in the U.S., if you go out of network of your insurance company, it cost you an arm and a leg, and even in network you still have copayments. I can see why that unless it gets to the point where it becomes debilitating, people usually don't want to really pursue it (especially when you likely have a full time job and are already exhausted in general).
If you have allergies or nasal congestion, it may help to address that. You can try sleeping slightly elevated too. It sucks massively wanting to be able to do things but having no energy to do them (whether they are things you want to do or need to do). I just had surgery on my nose to hopefully make it easier to breathe and maybe use a PAP machine, but still in the process. Hoping it is worth it in the end. Good luck to you eventually trying to figure it out. It can be pretty frustrating looking up on Google all the possible reasons to "Why am I so tired all the time?"
I do have a bit of seasonal allergy related issues, but just taking Meds when that comes up is typically enough to deal with them, I'm am pretty confident that my sleep issues aren't breathing/snoring related.
And yeah, I already spent years and years going doctor to doctor to Doctor being told I was imaging or faking symptoms and other annoying bullshit and that has really put me off getting the rest of my issues figured out (I did get that issue diagnosed eventually, and the treatment process sucked ass as well)
The issue is also that it's likely that the reason I can't sleep is because I have a pain condition, and since I can't cure the pain condition I may just be SOL, I've already tried a ton of sleep aids and such, none of them worked out. Plus I know if I went to a doctor now they'd recommend better sleep hygiene, which I know I need to work on, so it's one of those things where until I can say I've put in the effort to stick to all the annoying sleep hygiene habits for a while and still have been unable to sleep well, why bother even going in to see a doctor at all?
So for now I've just been attempting to improve my health and life with things like eating enough food for a normal person every day, sleeping and waking up in something mildly resembling a schedule, actually exercising (that last one hasn't been going so well). I'm hoping to eventually stick to it all long enough to see improvement in some facet of my life, even if it's not sleep.

Sadly, not yet. The most recent studies (2014) show that there seems to be an inflammation in the brain, and these last months I've been going to the clinic of the doctor who discovered it. I feel like I'm in good hands.
I'm not a "worst case scenario", though. However, when I get tired (everything makes me tired, so I have to budget both work and fun), I struggle with speech and comprehension, can't stand still for more than a few minutes, and sometimes end up on the floor unable to get up. It's getting better, but this is how it is for me after over 7 years.
I want a battery in my HUD to budget my energy better!
As someone who doesn't want to brag about whatever label the medical industry might want to tag me with. I'd also like some personal features - but did you hear about my condition, let me repeat it?
If this is what it sounds like, I may have a less severe form of this. If I don't force myself out of bed I can sleep ~20h a day in 4-6h spurts, awake an hour at a time. It started while I was on Prestiq and I was prescribed Vyvanse to combat what they said was a side effect. I've gotten off Prestiq now (holy shit they weren't kidding when they said it is worse withdrawal than heroin, Google it) and the fatigue hasn't gone away. :( do you have any advice on mitigating it at all?

I got it from a particularly rough round of mononucleosis, so I'm not entirely sure about your case. I'm really sad to hear you're struggling, though. I have some general advice for you that you could try, though, and for whomever else might be wondering about the same.
Investigate if lack of deep sleep could be the cause of your fatigue not going away (deep sleep is the part where you recover from most of the everyday fatigue, it could be accumulating)
Admit to yourself that your "active time per day" is shorter than others', and budget your days accordingly. If what you have is similar to mine, you might sometimes notice that the fatigue can come a few days after heavy activity, so make sure to budget every day, with "off-days" between heavy days.
Find out what activities tire you out. For me, I was devastated when I found out that the games (chess, LoL, etc) and activities (learning, programming, language) tire me out, as well as socializing, even with family. If the answer surprises depresses you, try to view it as something you simply can't control, like a slight intolerance to alcohol or milk. You can have some, but not as much as you'd like. No biggie.
Once you get some surplus in your everyday life, you'll find you suddenly have more and more energy to spare over time. I'm not saying don't be active - walking barely tires me out in any way (because I don't use my head), and helps in many ways.
Good luck. And if you have any more questions, fire away.
I actually had mono a little under two years ago as well, and oddly enough your triggers so to speak match up with what I do regularly (programming, strategy games, etc.) I'll try going for walks more if I can, maybe the sunlight might help as well. I'll shoot you a PM if I have anything else in the future. Thanks. :)
terozen ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 10:54:41 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Really! Then it might indeed be similar... I also spent more time in bed than outside of it in my first couple years during/after mono. But it came back during a bout of depression last year, so I guess it's hard to say for sure.
I think a healthy lifestyle might be worth giving a try. I'm not saying yours isn't, but the "get enough sleep, eat regularly and with correct portions, get sunlight in the morning and go to sleep early, do aerobic exercise (walking/jogging, not weight lifting) fairly regularly" etc. often seem like cliches, but every single one of those things matter more for people with less energy to spare. Once Pokemon GO fixes it's tracker, you could try using nearby pokemons for motivating to walk if you're not too far into the countryside...

How do you deal with it? I'm pretty sure I have it and it's really fucking with me :( mostly through memory loss and making my days short because I want to stay in bed so much as a result. My doctor said it could be a result of my anxiety and depression but she isn't sure. No one believes me when I tell them it's a real thing :(

I lost about a year from my memory after getting it, where I was asked when I got sick, and I answered "one year ago", when it was obviously two years, had I checked a calendar. Also spent way more than half of my days in bed. But I've also had days where I stayed in bed for months from depression. It was still very different.
I would love to help you! I've answered some others about how I deal with it these days, seven years after first getting sick, and have been giving some advice as well, do check out my other comments if you want to!
Because of my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and being prone to fall into depression, I cope with both by planning ahead to avoid messing up with either of those. It's hard. Doing too much makes me exhausted, while doing too little makes me depressed.
But at the very least, I aim to have "no zero days". No days where I do no things at all. I make sure I try to eat at least three meals per day, but I praise myself even if I only ate one. I tell myself "good job!" if I got out of bed before noon, and "well done!" if I go to bed before midnight, even if it was from exhaustion. I nurse good habits like this, which helps fight depression. When I'm having a streak of better days, I add more to what I want to do every day, but I never enforce it enough to be sad when I fail. Please, consider giving this reddit comment a read if you haven't already: https://www.reddit.com/r/getdisciplined/comments/1q96b5/i_just_dont_care_about_myself/cdah4af
I said earlier that staying in bed all day from depression and from exhaustion felt very different. Both made me feel like I couldn't move if I tried. However, while depression had me thinking "there's nothing for me out there, I have nothing to do that would be valuable for me or anyone else" (which is a lie!), being exhausted had me feeling "I still need to rest more, I'm still so tired, I'll might get some food later, I'll play some games when I feel a bit better". This was because resting didn't actually give my body (or more importantly, brain) rest. I wanted to do things, I just couldn't. When I was depressed, I didn't want to do anything, I only sometimes did things so that time would pass for my body to go back to sleep again.
It sounds like you're having a really rough time. I would love to help you! Feel free to comment here or send me a direct message, I'll do my best to answer for you!
If you have that, make sure you have been checked for sleep apnea. I meet none of the traditional criteria for it and after having been fatigued and tired increasingly more for years almost all the time I finally had a sleep study and found out I had moderate obstructive sleep apnea a month and a half ago...

Yeah, I'm currently going to a world-leading doctor on this syndrome, and he prescribed me to some sleeping hormones because I wasn't properly entering deep sleep. It's definitely similar in that sense. I never felt sleepy, though, just tired. The hormones are so that I'll feel more sleepy and fall into deeper sleep, and it's helping a lot with recovering from the everyday fatigue, so that it doesn't accumulate over the days where I'm more active than normal.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion, though! I'm a pretty straight-forward case for CFS, having triggered the syndrome after a really bad case of mononucleosis over seven years ago. Finally getting some kind of treatment feels great.
Would pot work? Specifically a sativa strain?

I've tried it casually a few times, but only for recreation, before I knew what was actually troubling me. It had very little effect in the "getting high" sense for me, but I always wonder if it would help reduce the symptoms when my brain is on meltdown.
Try a sativa strain, not indica. Indica is a body high that makes you lazy where as a sativa strain is more of a head high, you see sativa at parties because of this.

This would be terrible for me. Whenever I play an RPG, I have to make sure my health, magic, stamina is as full as possible at all times. Seeing my Energy at anything less than 90% would annoy me to no end.
I'd probably end up making excuses based on it to. "Oh I could have done that/Done better if I had had more energy" I guess I can do that now, but to have a number to it would make it much easier.

Was thinking the same thing but more towards a meter for mental exhaustion. I want to be able to use the brain to its limit without crossing the level that will burn me out or get a depression. I will take a rest until the meter shows me when i can start straining it again.
I don't have insomnia but I agree. Sometimes thinking that I should be tired or will be tired helps me sleep.

I want this. Not having a thyroid id love to be able to see how long i have until my comprehension skills go straight out the window.
Being able to know that the brain fog is going to hit in time to take another lyro would be amazing.
It would be nice to wake up and know how much time I have to do shit before falling asleep again. When you don't have any regular sleep patterns, it can be difficult to know how long you'll last. You may think you just had a solid eight hours of sleep but you can easily end up crashing again within a couple of hours.
On the other hand, countdown timers are a cardinal sin of game design and would end up just as stressful and depressing in life. Double-edged sword, I fear.

It's unlikely that you still have it around, but would you care to link the study? I'm always up for some random background reading, and I was under the impression that EMF radiation wasn't harmful.

I hate to be the one to point out flaws, but the study says that:
1) Tests were only done WITHOUT electromagnetic signals nearby.
2) There was no difference in melatonin levels between the control group and the "EMF sensitive" group.
All this has concluded is that people who claim to be EMF sensitive experience less effective sleep when not near an EMF. The general consensus amongst EMF sceptics is that people who claim to be EMF sensitive are just experience a placebo/nocebo effect, which, of course, requires you to believe in EMF sensitivity. If you believe in EMF sensitivity, you've probably experienced it, which suggests you have problems sleeping, which might explain why the EMF sensitive group slept worse in general conditions.
Do you really want a dull throbbing red light in the corner of your vision constantly reminding you of how tired you are?
Or maybe it's bounding values are more extreme. It could be always sitting at what seems like the same value because it's upper bound is how you would feel cranked out of your skull on drugs and the lower bound is how you would feel in the last few moments before you succumb to blood loss and die.
Even better, it could just be a measure of your mass multiplied by the square of your velocity.

I know people who still freak out about this because of caller ID on land lines! "Hello Clarice..."
I wouldn't, it would remove the option of ever being yourself. You'd be a robot, automating the code that was feeding you the lines. No freedom to say what you actually feel. What if "the best line" was something you completely disagreed with. Maybe, and I really mean maybe I would take the option for the best phrasing of what you currently want to say. That way if you know you're going to say something controversial you can cheat and make it less so.
Sometimes personal morality would get in the way. Speaking to your boss you might have the phrase "if its alright, I want to fuck your brains out" which would lead to an affair and a promotion... but you're married with a family. You know that the best outcome means that even if your wife finds out that you'll be ok but can your conscience stand it? If you don't say it and you never get that promotion are you going to kick youraelf everytime you're in need for money? What if your child needs a surgery and you need funds but you didn't get the pay raise because you didn't bang your boss?
I thought the same thing, you might find out people you really liked or got on with were becoming racist or bigoted and you'd be like "well shit now lots of statements are going to agree". You wouldn't be used to phrasing things yourself so your arguing skills would be terrible. I think you phrased it a lot better though.
I think you would be surprised at how frequently it's best to say nothing. I like silence, and if there isn't anything super important to say then I'm happy with it. I'm not sure how many other people that holds true for but I think it's a fair number.
You would need a tone indicator too because even the best thing to say can be said wrong.

But the best thing depends on your motivation and what you want the most of the possible outcomes of the conversation. It'd have to be pretty advanced to know what one is not even aware of sometimes.
Sometimes I can make the perfect comment, I used to be able to do it a lot more a few years ago but lately I'm finding myself not as funny. Like i'm losing my touch; I could do with this.

heh...choice of an amateur. You need to first be a proper gentlemen and only use Blue for the first 6 months. Then a Green is acceptable occasionally. Only after one year of earning the maiden's trust and friendship can a Pink be suggested.

Yep. Any time word gets out I'm colorblind, I know I'm gonna spend the next couple hours having people wave random objects in my face asking, "What color is this?"
Unfortunately those glasses, so far, can only correct colourblindness if it has been caused by trauma or something - they can't correct inherited colourblindness. And I'm fairly certain no form of glasses (without relaying an image to an implant) could ever correct inherited colourblindness due to it being caused by faulty colour receptors in the eyes rather than brain or optic nerve damage.
Source: Am colourblind and got excited when I first heard of them.
I've never read any reviews on those glasses, but I figured they would work for common red/green colorblindness. Here's my logic:
I'm R/G colorblind. I can see red and I can see green. But when it's a small object or there's not a lot of light or it's a red thing and green thing beside each other, I can't tell the difference.
I figured it's simply because my red and green cones detected wavelengths slightly closer together than the average person. Therefore many reds and greens will spill over and stimulate the other cone. If it's a huge thing totally saturating my eyes with zillions of photons, my brain can figure out I'm getting way more red or green and I know the color. But if it's a small object or the light is dim and there are relatively a few photons hitting both types of cones, my brain can't figure out if I'm receiving more red or green photons and the color interpretation becomes fuzzy.
I agree with your logic - that's how I think my R/G colourblindness also works. But that's the reason I don't think the glasses would ever work - because they would need to increase the light in dim situations and somehow increase the number of colour photons that an object reflects (which is possible if it's just a case of increasing the ambient light but it wouldn't be able to increase the photons that a small objects emits in broad daylight).
Plus I went on a website that sold those glasses and it has a test to see which glasses would most suit you - and the test was a standard Ishihara plate test. Afterwards it told me that none of the glasses they currently have would work for me.

They're just on a higher difficulty. Maybe it could be configured to have shapes, such as a heart (โฅ๏ธ) for romantic, an X for being mean, a :D face for jokes, etc.
Well that was disappointing. It just seems...lazy. None of the reactions/dialogue was actually changed. You have the exact same options to prompt the exact same conversations, only your options were made to look somewhat silly. "I am a soldier" turns into "me shoulder."
Meanwhile, the NPC doesn't react to that at all and continues talking, carrying out an intelligent conversation as if what you said was the standard dialogue option.
Having low int in the original Fallout series (Black isle/interplay) affected dialogue/gameplay options much more, but fewer people are familiar with it compared to Bethesda's Fallout.
In Fallout 1 and 2 there was a perk that would color-code speech options, including speech checks. Green was neutral, red would annoy or provoke the person, and blue would lead to additional rewards or a favorable response. It was kind of redundant, though, as most dialog options are straightforward if you actually take the time to read them.
Edit: The perk's called "empathy", and it can be useful during speech checks. Unlike the newer games, Fallout 1 and 2 didn't label speech checks as such, and you had no indication of success rate unless you took this perk. For example, a normally red option could become blue with a high enough speech skill. Speech failures in the earlier games often resulted in combat as well, so the perk was fairly useful.
Deus Ex has a neural enhancement perk that can allows for something similar as well. The dialogue mechanics are very cool in that game, and can get complex.
Edit: wanted to add that the dialogue outcomes do affect side quest completions in Deus Ex games, and can provide "shortcuts".
Why would you ever use blue? Pink on anyone you want to bang, red on your enemies and green on everyone else.

What if it was like fallout 4 where it just gave you a very vague discriptor of what you were gonna say with a constant wildcard sarcasm option leaving you in constant danger of stupid social faux pas
I color code all my info. I wrote 'gay son' in green. Green means go. So I know to go ahead and shut up about it. Orange means orange you glad you didn't bring it up. Most colors mean don't say it.
The worst part is realizing years later that you were lied to at a critical point in your life and wondering how your life would be different if you weren't such a gullible twat.
Assuming you're a human, aren't you lying to me by saying that? Which would mean that not everyone lies, leading to your previous statement being true? Which would mean you're lying to me by saying that? Which would mean that not everyone lies, leading to your previous statement being true? Which would mean you're lying to me by saying that? Which would mean that not everyone lies, leading to your previous statement being true? Which would mean you're lying to me by saying that?

Certainly to an extent. Right now one of the greatest social skills a person can have in our society is to be a convincing liar. As a terrible liar myself, it puts me at an extreme disadvantage in the work place, in social events, and really everywhere else that humans interact. The lie is probably the most valuable and destructive creation of the human mind. If we took that away from people you would see a dramatic reshaping of our society which I believe after the initial upheaval would be for the better. Imagine a world where your leaders can't lie to you. Your children can't lie to you. So many things would change for the better. Yes it would be hard, but ultimately in a world where we can't lie to each other just maybe we would have a much harder time lying to ourselves. The lie we tell ourselves is always the worst. If a family can be destroyed by the truth, maybe it needs to be torn down so that something more positive can take it's place.

To take away the ability to lie is to take away the ability to choose. Personal secrets become practically nonexistent, because no one can cover them up. While our leaders couldn't lie to us, we wouldn't be able to lie to them either. The bar for probable cause drops to "does the lie dectector go off".
I'm not sure I want to live in a world where I can't keep secrets from anyone who asks the right questions.
Plus society would have evolved in such a way that either:
1) People / authority was very efficient at asking the right questions to procure information.
Or
2) We would have a society wide acceptance that asking certain questions was really rude, and people would choose to not answer questions.
Both of these concepts hinge on this idea that lying is a simple binary though. It isn't really, I can simply redirect your question, or only answer a part. Or any number of other tricks we already know. If his goal was to make it easier to spot lying what he would actually make is a world full of politician answers.
However I think OP wanted the ability and not others to have it to. Obviously that is very different to what we're talking about.
Secrets and choice aren't related like that. I can take away your secrets but you still have choice. Certainly your risk/ reward matrix changes dramatically but you still have choice. Would you want criminals to walk if you had a means of simply asking them if they did it? The real answer is if you don't want to be arrested don't break the law. Granted this is all highly hypothetical but I really believe the truth sets you free. All lies are poisons to our soul. Even innocent lies can have terrible consequences. Transparency might be the only thing that can save our society at this point. The lies we are being fed are what's poisoning the well. If you have to lie to someone to keep them with you. Do you really deserve them? I'm not saying it would be easy but eventually I think we would all be better for it.

Secrets and choice aren't related like that. I can take away your secrets but you still have choice. Certainly your risk/ reward matrix changes dramatically but you still have choice.
So I didn't word that properly. My point was that you take away a persons ability to choose privacy.
if you don't want to be arrested don't break the law
I hate this argument. It doesn't account for bullshit laws. Imagine the laws a government can pass when it knows you can't lie about breaking them. I don't trust the government not to abuse that power. Or anyone else for that matter (my wife being the exception, though it'd be a while before I came around to the idea).
All lies are poisons to our soul. Even innocent lies can have terrible consequences.
Imagine, if you will, a scenario in which you a fairly well to do person. Not elite .1%, but well enough off enough that you are proud of your success. Now imagine that you are robbed, and told to give up your Social Security Number, so the robbers can continue to fuck up your life in the future.
In order to extract this information, they place a gun to your head and tell you it you lie to them, they will blow your head off.
What do you do?
If you have to lie to someone to keep them with you. Do you really deserve them?
No. However, completely eliminating the ability to have personal secrets and revealing those secrets with time, when that person is comfortable with doing so is not the solution to that problem.
I don't like a kind of world that would remove the ability to keep things to myself
First off privacy in and of itself is a sort of socially acceptable lie. I agree that not everything in my life is everyone else's business. I think in a world where you couldn't life there would plenty of things people wouldn't ask.
Second I also hate the if you don't wanna get arrested don't break the law argument but in a world where you couldn't lie eventually our legal system would come to reflect that when the powerful get caught breaking stupid laws.
Third point, if you couldn't lie you would see crime drop to almost zero. The whole point of financial crimes (used in your illustration) is that people think they are going to get away with them. In a world where I only have to ask if you stole the money, who is going to steal the money. When you seek that line of credit, a simple question will prevent you from using my personal information. Seriously you go to buy a TV, "is this your information" boom identity theft over done with. Not even possible anymore.
Fourth point nothing says you can't refuse to answer a question. If a person doesn't respect your privacy enough to table a question, then why would you want to be with them.
Seriously if you couldn't lie life would be so fundamentally different that's its almost impossible for our minds to comprehend. Wouldn't you want to live in a crime free society, where your politicians can't lie so that the government actually does it's job instead of trying to distract us. People would find a way to maintain privacy. If this were real I'm sure saying I prefer not to answer that would be totally acceptable in most social situations. The whole point of this is to level the playing field. Some people already have this sort of ability and the converse ability to lie without detection. These are tremendously valuable skills in the business world. Why do we choose our leaders on the ability to lie convincingly rather than their character.
Fourth point nothing says you can't refuse to answer a question
Yeah, but that's the problem. Your body treats "refusing to answer" as a lie, if you indeed has something to hide. So it would be picked up on the lie detector and that undoes most of your comment.
Well now you are putting an unstipulated limitation on the tech not posited initially, but I think people would tend to understand more than you give them credit for. People already know when you don't want to answer a question. Nine times out of ten you throw out a simple lie that you both know is a lie or you do exactly what I said and tell the person you don't want to talk about it. This way is just more honest.
Also keep in mind that lie detectors don't actually work. It's all pseudoscience. I wouldn't get too worked up on the details.
Well now you are putting an unstipulated limitation on the tech not posited initiall
I stipulated, yes. But wholly within reason to assume may be part of the display if the technology in question is based at all on our current technology for detecting lies.
This way is just more honest.
That's the problem. People like the veneer of a lie, even if it's not in their self interest to do so.
Yeah we don't have any tech that accurately detects lies. Its all cop drama BS used to scare people into confessing. The only power a lie detector has is that people believe it works. They are easily beaten. In fact people give classes on how to do it. People like lies but they respect truth.
Lie detectors detect lies based off our bodies natural reactions when lying. They do so at better than 50% accuracy. The science is sound, however it is imperfect. It relies on a baseline measurement, which the most successful methods of beating lie detectors focus on manipulating.

In a similar vein, I'd want something that responds to statistics quoted by people/ads/what have you and displays the real statistic, along with a condensed version of the context in which in the statistic was generated.
It'd make it so much easier to cut through someone's bullshit.
Hello? Technical support? I recently got the lie detector module installed. Why doesn't the lie indicator ever turn off?
--Because you are lying to yourself, sir. I can't help you if you won't help yourself.
You definitely wouldn't want that. I guarantee you get lied to all the time just because people don't want to talk about certain things.
That's not saying the lying is bad, but you would get self concious very quickly and you would need to learn the vast majority of lies aren't worth a second thought.
I'm sometimes bad at knowing if I'm lying. I need it to work both ways, but alert me privately when I'm being dishonest with myself and alert with an air horn when someone is lying to me.
I honestly feel like the world would collapse in on itself if people couldn't lie. Always knowing if someone is lying sounds like a good idea, but it would probably be annoying at best and potentially heartbreaking.
Theres a good argument to have something trigger when someone tells the truth because people lie constantly, but if it does ping you know what parts are useful.

A little number above their head resembles how many days I've seen the same person.
Close friends would have numbers in the hundreds or thousands, but some strangers would have large numbers if I've seen them everyday. Travel around the world and everyone's would read 0 but then one random person may have a 1, meaning you've seen them somewhere in the world before.
At that point you should just fuckin retire if the amount of days youve worked cant fit in a 32 bit int

Some were born before 32 bit integers were introduced. They don't receive patches for the game anymore because the devs don't support 8 and 16 bit architectures anymore.
Any binary bit integer has existed since forever. Whether or not it's been encapsulated in a programming language utilising a compiler for a binary architecture you use and that is familiar to you is irrelevant. A concept is always a concept and has always and will forever exist.

Nah, they were expecting 3 digits in decimal, so if it's an overflow, you're probably looking at 7 to 9 bits, since 6 resets at 63, and 10 resets at 1023. If it reset in a 32 bit int, then you're looking at millions of years...
Alternatively, the memory location for the number is also used by another function that has write access due to hanky programming to save space.

Let's say you work there for 50 years, 50 weeks a year, 5 days a week, 2^32/(50*50*5) is around 300,000 so if it counted every time you looked away and looked back or let's say blinked, you would have to blink 300,00 times a day while looking at them. Apparently people blink about 1200 times per hour so for an 8 hour day you'd get 9600 blinks in. You'd have to blink at about 31 times the speed of normal blinking to make it. Normally it's 10-15 times a minute so you'd be blinking 310 to 465 times a minute or ~6 times a second. A blink blinds you for 300 to 400 milliseconds so you would be blind for 2.1 seconds of each second you were looking at your coworker, blind and with sore eyelids.
Google's style guide prefers signed integers: styleguide. A lot of people follow it.
Signed integers can be used so that negative values signal failure as a holdover from C because C++ doesn't have abstract data types. This is a common practice but I would not recommend it, as it is very error prone. (See this post for examples of better ways to handle this).
Regardless, I'd use [unsigned] int (maybe [u]int_least32_t for safety) instead of uint64_t. No reason to force 64 bits on 32 bit word machines.

It does have a scary premise though. I agree about the Sherlock Holmes/Moriarty analogy but with Ryuk, the other Shinigami, The way the death note itself works, And Lights descent into madness it could be seen as scary, not a horror though.

And she wasn't wrong, in a sense. There have been different popular definitions for "animal" that exclude things like bugs, fish, birds, humans, and krelsnatches. Not all people have taken on the current popular definition.
Also depends maybe on what language or culture someone grew up with. I think in Russian they are definitely considered different categories. In Georgian they definitely are.

That makes me think about a guy I consistently see on my way to work. Most working days I will pull out at the light a block away from my house and he'll be waiting from the other direction, and fall in behind me. 5 miles later I turn right and he continues on. It's turned into a bit of a game where I imagine where he's going or what he may be doing.
This would drive me nuts if I couldn't figure out that one time. I'd rather not know I've seen them before than know that I've seen them but will never know where or when.

But if you see them they will be seen... So you would never see the number 0 only 1+.
The shit part to this is if you spend two days in some new place. On the first day you'd see lots of 0s and get excited if you see a one. On the subsequent day you'd see a mix of ones and zeros. So now you won't know if one of those people was a person you saw in a completely different place or not.
And then you see someone in the crowd with a 3 digit number as they seem to stare intently at you for a little bit before looking away as they notice you staring

Yes, especially for animals. My mom swears that it's the same bluejay coming to visit us in our backyard every morning. I tell her it's impossible because it's been coming almost every morning since I was seven. I'm twenty-eight... Not a wildlife expert, but I'm pretty sure bluejays don't live twenty years.
When I switched cell phones earlier this year I discovered a while in that the new one had a feature I'd never seen before, it kept a tally of how many text messages you've exchanged with people next to their name.
After a few months, most people have like 10-20 tops, since I almost never give out my phone number. My sisters each had several thousand inside of those same few months.
I don't always think of myself as a good older brother, as I don't see them nearly as often as I'd like. But that stupid number did kind of make my eyes tear up when I realized what it was for.

I want to make a AR app that is similar to this. My idea was the ability to Discretely tag people using face recognition. If they say a phrase like "my name is", "I'm" or say a random name to start a conversation it asks you if you want to put that as a name. Then tags can be added later from your smart phone with where you saw them. Honestly, the only reason I want to make this is because I suck with names.
I hope something like Google Glass gets popular and not weird. AR would have a lot of possibilities if it was able to be used as a HUD.
It would be cool... Unless someone was stalking you and then your own in a country where no one could possible know you and you look over and see a triple digit number.
I have often wondered if I have ever seen a specific bird before.
Perhaps the birds recognize me but don't know that I don't recognize them, and they get mad when I don't say hi. Perhaps they think I am mean but in reality I just can't tell them apart. They all look the same to me. Does that make me racist? Or would it be "birdist"?

I actually have a nice example of that travel one! I'm from western Canada and I recently travelled all the way to Eastern Europe. It was my first trip of that scale, so there's no way I would've ever actually seen anyone more than one time. On my way home, I'm sitting in my seat, I see this girl walk past that looks like a girl that had come out to my work a few months before. I swore it was her, and still believe it could've been her. If we had the number-above-head thing, I could've confirmed it! But now I gotta wait until next spring when she comes to my work again to find out..
While out grocery shopping, you see another regular customer whom you don't really know that just broke triple digits. You figure, 'Eh, it's been long enough. It's about time to say something to them. Their number is pretty high.' You walk up, and say "Hey, your meeting number is 100. We see each other often enough, what's your name?"
I don't know about you, but that sounds like it would help me broaden my social circle. Who knows, maybe the person likes D&D. Or Reddit.
Omg yes, I keep running into this one girl. I have no idea who she is, but I see her more often than some family members. I'm yet to figure out who's stalking who.
Yeah underweight, it's not really the first thing you think of for myfitnesspal, (you'd think it's to help limit calories and lose weight).
I was usually underweight, although I got food poisoning for a bit and lost even more. Went from 107 to 125.
Didn't realize I wasn't really eating enough until I started tracking. Apparently two meals a day isn't enough.
I did eat bad at the start to get "easier calories" as I wasn't used to eating so much food. Oreos, McDoubles, a lot of whipped coffee drinks, not great health wise but if it was 10pm I was scrambling to get the last 500 calories in me.
Because transitioning from 3 to 2 meals is really difficult if you dont plan it out. If you eat healthy, you can get the energy you need out of two or three hundred calories. A lot of people dont though. Also, when your coworkers go out for lunch, its easier just to go with them, and eat a full meal.
It's impossible for me. I can't eat that many calories in one sitting to not be hungry too soon. I'm at 3k calories a day and struggle to consume that many on work days.

Just get better at estimating how many calories you need and how much is in your food, it takes practice like anything else. It's really just listening to your body for most people I think
Your going about this wrong. You need it to highlight foods with color coding that displays whether a food is good for your daily intake based on current intake. Hovering the food will display it's overall nutrient relationship with what you need and have had. This way there is no room for personal error.
Oh or also like an anatomical diagram where the muscle groups you are "Activating" during a workout will light up. Kind of like in the N64 podracer game where your ship diagram would turn green->red as it took damage.

My Fitness Pal does something similar. You can enter in what foods you eat and it will track your calories/nutrients for the day. I've been slacking with mine because entering in the foods can be time consuming.
Legally they are allowed to be off by up to 20%. That is 400 calories per day or gaining a pound every 9 days if you are aiming for a 2000 calorie diet and the error works against you. Additionally if there are less than 0.5 grams of something they can label as 0. Less than 0.9 and they can label as less than 1. These hidden calories can build up.
Another consider ton is serving sizes, which are a joke. Who can measure out 2 tablespoons of whipped topping for their coffee every morning? And who is the idiot that decided half a cup was a serving if ice cream? We need to seriously revamp serving sizes and go by weight like the rest of the world which uses a standard 100g.
They can tell you an approximation of how much you've burned, but you have to input all your meals yourself. Source :has one of these wrist wearable devices

Honestly if your goal is to lose weight don't bother counting lost calories. It's way less accurate than counting regular calories (put sedentary into activity on myfitnesspal) and staying under that even with exercise. Just try to get most of your calories from good sources like grilled chicken and veg and even with exercise you'll feel satiated.

Moreover it can vary by more than 800 calories burned per day for people of the same sex, height, and weight according to a study that found losing significant a amount of weight permanently reduces your resting metabolic rate under what would be expected for a person of the same height and weight.

Sure, apps like myfitnesspal are great. But something that can automatically detect what's gone into my body and what ive burned off would be amazingly better.
I'd settle for 'net calories'. But yeah, first thing that jumped into my head.
And don't tell me about the whole 'there is a gadget that does it', or that I could look it up. The whole point of the hud is to make the data trivial to access. I'm assuming this magical hud is somehow accurate, which you will not find in a real life gadget.

Yeah. Current methods are all just estimates on both the intake\burning sides. (even calorie counts on food labels have a margin of error). I'd assume this magical HUD could scan and determine the calories in the food as well as the actual calories burned by the body.
For what it's worth I agree with the other guy. Your approach is too typical to how games are played. Real life is about staying healthy and alive. You wouldn't have XP, rather it would be more like Mario coming up to breathe for air, or conquer getting really shit faced in bad fur day.

More exp = higher level = higher "age" = sooner death
It has nothing to do with power. It mainly serves as a requirement for certain perks (like buying consumables with the Alcohol descriptor, or taking the vehicle tutorials). Higher levels are actually a detriment, as certain debuffs (like Arthritis) scale with your level.
No, you'd have to talk to the /r/outside people and convince them that they're describing the game wrong. That's not built into the system, they're just wrong about their interpretation of the system.
Why not add seconds to your death timer? Where unhealthy or harmful things give negative seconds (cigarette -60s for example) and healthy things add seconds (apple +5s). Unhealthy weighs heavier to add a challenge of course.

If you have shitty hearing in those frequencies, then you're not gonna hear it well. I don't know what frequencies they're on but I can hear the red nirnroots far better than the normal ones if I recall correctly. Up until I came across them I didn't realize there were any tones associated with the nirnroots, and then afterwards I could notice the normal nirnroot ones too since I was looking out for it, only nowhere as well.
Pretty much the only way to go as a casual player. If you knew how to level up efficiently(correctly?) then your character could get way more powerful than the enemies you fight, you'd even have to turn the difficulty up because it'd get too easy

Funnily enough, I guess the gates are the main focus of the oblivion game, but they were also my least favorite part.
There was a limit. In fact, not all of them would open! There was a limit that would increase as the main quest goes on, but it's like half the possible gates.
Which is really frustrating, trying to find your gates...

There were like 4 levels to the potion depending on how many nirnroots you could get to Sindarin. I think the 4th level potion was 600 seconds Night Eye, +100 to encumbrance (carry 100 more lbs), and it boosted health and fatigue by 20 and blade, blunt, restoration, destruction, sneak, and security by 10.
Given that nirnroot was a pretty sucky alchemy ingredient otherwise, it was a decent potion. No need for a night eye spell or a torch, you could walk in the darkest dungeons no problem.

So the thing that confuses the fuck out of me, is you spend Oblivion picking Nirnroot. Not just one or two here and there, you commit fucking PLANT GENOCIDE on that little herb that never grows back.
And do you replant it? Farm it? Try to save the species, that the book tells you is endangered and nearly extinct?
Nope.
You grind it into a paste and drink it.
Then Skyrim comes around, and apparently plant genocide is exactly what nirnroot needed, because now it's fucking everywhere, to the point of it being agriculturalised, and it has a mutant strain, too.
But we know what we need to do to fix the endangered mutant strain, right? That's it. PLANT GENOCIDE.

While you're in blackreach (from doing signus whateverthefuck's [crazy dwarven lover dude in the igloo] quest, he tells you to go there) if you pick a crimson nirnroot it starts the quest for you.
That was one of my favourite quests. Didn't take long at all. You get to run around exploring the cool underground, while listening for the classic nirnroot sound.
But complaints aside, discovering blackreach was one of the defining moments in gaming for me. That initial moment of "oh wow" when you see the vista, followed by an even bigger "oh my god" when you realize how truly large this hidden area was, will forever be a gold standard for exploration and RPGs. It is what I compare all other world reveals to.
I'm commenting this way after the fact, but absolutely fuck that mission. I harvested one and forgot about it. Later I was making potions and I used the solo red nirnroot I had to see what it did. That fucking game then gave me a notification that I now had -1 out of 30. NEGATIVE ONE. Most bull shit mission of that game. I'm still mad.
The noise always ended up being too quiet for me to locate them.

for shit like that on pc i just used the console. i cant be bothered for shit like that lol
Console commands were invented for this very reason. The ONLY time it was justified in my opinion. Hell, the Peryite quest items were easier to gather.
I remember going a little crazy from finding nirnroot myself. I caught myself seeing nirnroot-like plants in real life and thinking "Oh shit! There's one! Oh wait..."
His people were against alchemy and most forms of magic. I tried to play my characters with their own personalities. That was my first player and I also killed the brotherhood people because he was morally good and against "sneaks." Fuck now I need to go play again
I went through Blackreach, exploring the entire area, in about 3 hours. Collected all the crimson ninroots and additional loot, killed the dragon, and completed the quest. It seems kinda weird to me that people struggled so much with the ninroots. They made an audible noise when you're nearby and they really stand out, plus most of them are right by the water.
I think people who are complaining about it are referring to the Oblivion quest, where you have to bring the guy a total of 100 Nirnroot to complete the quest, and instead of being in one place they're spread out around the entire map.

After an amount if time that I lost track of I said, out loud, "fuck you" to this game. And then I was done with that quest. I even felt I had achieved something by just telling it to fuck right off with that nonsense. I didn't have the time, and there was no way it could possibly reward me equally for my troubles.
I decided to come back to it later. Somehow it let me remove the crimson nirnroot from my inventory, and i ended up with -6/30 needed to complete the quest. Picked up the last 24 and could never complete it even though there were 30 in my inventory. Fun quest.
Most would see it as a challenge rather than a stopping point... tbh.

I'd like to have a health meter but my god it better not show my total health. Imagine seeing your max health tick down day by day because you're getting old. Eventually you're down to a little sliver and you know the anxiety of having the bar has contributed to how fast your health has depleted.
Really good idea. Nobody realizes how much better their quality of life would be if they were %100 healthy. It doesn't effect just the body, but the mind as well.
Like in the movie The Island, where their urine is monitored and they're given the vitamins and minerals they're needed as part of their breakfast. Would love that.
As someone in serious need of potassium, magnesium, iron, but who can't intake B vitamins due to increased risk of clotting, on top of already inherent risks of this, I so second this.

Something most people are low on is vitamin D and magnesium. Magnesium deficiency is also apparently hard to detect because your body will break down bone to make up for it.
This is all based off of very superficial google search.
Why? It would be nearly as useful as a graph showing how much water you needed: instead of reacting to an indicator, you can prevent problems by drinking plenty of water.
If you need an nutrient indicator, you need to re-evaluate how you're eating.
oh, I totally agree! i'm quite the transhumanist, I'll be the first in line for revision 3 of a brain interface.

And people use that power to catch imaginary Pokemon and take pictures of their food and/or in front of a mirror at the gym. What a world.
But they also use it to maintain a connection with loved ones around the planet, video calls to soldiers away on tour, and dirty jokes to their mates.
I honestly wouldn't want to live in a society where people only did things considered productive and valuable 100โ of the time! Down time is fun time you know?
(That said, folk who only go places or do things in order to take selfies do cause me incredulation)
This "having to use my fingertips is so less convenient than hands free" attitude is exactly what propels technology forward. There's always something better and we want that, so there are people who work towards it.

They're really not that great, it has major fov problems just like the Google glass, not to mention the only interface method is using your fingers to click. It will be better in the future I'm sure, but even if the price was <500 I wouldn't get it.
Those are cool options, but in real world use they're both lacking, Google glass because it was a very early demo and hololens because you need high specs. The real revolutionary devices and usage in ways that people will get excited about are coming up with androids new daydream system. It's really three parts that will make for awesome vr experience on Android. Standard specs for phones, a reference design headset and a platform for content, also this stuff will be open for people to develop so it should be much better than previous vr.

There's a keyboard you control with your eye- An eye tracker checks if you're looking above, below, or middle and left, right, or middle. It presents an alphabet tree:
E
/
B
/ \
A D
\ /
C
\
F
Look right and middle, A. Up and right, then right and middle, B. Left then middle, backspace. What's nice is that it's time insensitive, so with practice you get faster. What's not nice is that it requires moving an eye, which most people can't do independently.

I don't really understand Wolfram Alpha. It seems to me like a bigger calculator but everyone says it can solve everything? It's seems to only do maths.
It does all the sciences amazingly well. All in one place so it's extremely useful. There are things like flight trackers and weather maps too. And more gimmicky stuff like the number of piano tuners in Chicago (a Fermi estimation reference) etc.
It even does stuff about linguistics and people. Have a look on the examples section of the website. It's analytical skills are great (you can even do your Facebook profile IIRC).
It's just really cool to have everything together, in one place, and quick. If you do maths or physics as a hobby/academic/job it's invaluable IMO.
I use it in school a lot. You can ask it pretty straightforward questions and it will answer. Like the cp of toluene at 95 celcius or some stuff like that that Id have to look up in huge tables.

Judging from the camera system at the little ice cream parlor near me:
"Well, there's one door, and all the cameras are pointed at it. They record for 24 hours at a time and never shut down. There's no employee entrance, and the front door is also the only fire exit."
I would want the saints row nav system actually. Giant yellow markers on the turns that I have to make. That way I can pull sweet power slides whenever I have to turn.
Ever since I was a kid, I wished that I could sometimes play "life" in third person. Now it would take a drone a little behind me and up high and a VR headset with no latency. I've also wanted a floating light orb that could follow me. Just click and gently toss into the air and it floats and follows. Maybe I should start working on these, huh...

I suggest you get a few friends in on it with you and form a party (I partied up with my wife, but it's not quite as effective with only two).

Oh! Also! Make sure you use the actual website, not just the app. There are some features that can only be applied on the main website, including allocating stat points when you level up (which can change things like mana recharge rate and how much gold you get for performing real-life tasks). I didn't realize I had them until Level 15, so I had been sitting on all that potential progress for nothing!
A calorie indicator that shows the amount of calories I can eat to lose/maintain my weight that is calculated in real time according to my intake and energy usage
I've said this many times. You could set it to your desired calorie deficit then if you eat something which you have no idea what the calories are you would know where you stand, and if you're done eating for the day and haven't me your goal you exercise a bit.
It would make it possible to exactly hit your daily goal and I think would make weight loss infinitely easier.
Funny thing is, we have apps for that. If you don't know exactly, guess and find something similar. It won't hurt you if you overestimate. People just won't use them, and some people still refuse to believe calories in calories out.
Well yea you can do a decent job with apps and stuff but knowing 100% for sure in and out with 0 effort would change everything I think, maybe it's just me. I actually gravitate toward fast food and prepackaged crap because of this, I know how many calories there are. That being said, knowing exactly how much I've eaten when I make homemade shit or go out to dinner where there aren't calories or if these places aren't accurate would be great, you just focus on keeping that deficit and motivation to exercise or eat less would come naturally to balance the number.

Ghmm, I wonder if you rated hunger on a scale from 0 to 10 and picked a point to keep it at (maybe, I dunno, 1 out of 10?), if it would work like this.
Probably not, I worked for a long time to get myself in shape and when I started off cutting out junk food, I was ravenous even if I had just eaten a perfectly decent meal. As I lost weight and exercised more I found that I had to remind myself to eat something because I'd often forget and wouldn't feel the hunger pangs.

Fitbit + MyFitnessPal = I pretty much do this every day. Lost 65lbs in the past 10 months.
HUD would be nice for using my phone on the train, I always stand and looking down at my phone feels bad for my neck, and holding my phone right up looks stupid and tires my arm out, I just want to read my book dammit.
Honestly, you don't even need Fitbit. MFP makes everything so easy and you feel a lot better about yourself because you know how much you're eating every day. But I guess if you want really accurate results you could use a Fitbit.
I like Fitbit because it takes my heart rate into consideration. MFP knows how many steps I took but I have to go in and try to ghetto rig a system of calorie estimates using cardio exercises to accurately paint the calorie-out picture.
Fitbit I carry with me at all times except for an hour or two in bed once every two days. Love the damn thing now.
And calories tag for any item I am considering consuming while we're at it. I've been trying monitor and regulate my intake, and knowing how much something is is the hardest part for me
Only accurate to within a few hundred calories (10%) and doesn't add your calories in for you. There are plenty of apps out there that help, but you have to use them. We want it to be automatic.
Throw in a system that just has good bypass your stomach when you go over your limit, and the world would be a different place.

A lot of people don't need to know exactly what they're eating every day, they just need a close enough number to put their current eating into perspective, and a thing to remind them to look at the packaging on products occasionally, MyFitnessPal made a big difference to me because before I was never looking at how bad what I was eating actually was and thinking I was doing well when the things I was eating for lunch were like 600 calories each.
Essentially, they're popular because they're better than nothing, and for a lot of people the alternative actually is nothing.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 13:12:32 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Man, people are so fucking negative. It's not worthless. I also use the app myfitnesspal to I put calories and along with using the Fitbit, it has helped me drop ten pounds already. You can use them and not make any changes to your diet and exercise and see how terrible you're doing, but you can also use them to make a difference in your life. All the comments above are a circle jerk of why bother
Because the app will put you at a deficit of 500 calories to lose weight. Even if it's off by 300, you're still under by 200 and will lose weight. Also, it's very hard to hit the goal on the dot and people try to stay under, so now you're talking about people being at at least 300 under every day. They will lose weight.
A lot of the apps will adjust based on how much you lose, too. There are 3500 kcal to a pound, so if after 10 weeks, you've lost 5 lbs on a 500 kcal deficit per day, it will know that it needs to drop your daily goal by an additional 250 kcal to hit your goal of 1lb/week.
That would be awesome. I always consider a large margin of error when using My Fitness Pal and similar apps. Plus, user honesty is an imperative factor in the degree of effectiveness apps like that can have.
However, if you are wanting to put in the time to log each meal and all exercise daily, MFP is a decent tool. I have been using it (almost) daily for approximately a year and I feel that it has helped me to lose at least a portion of the 60 lbs I've dropped. If nothing else, it's held me accountable. That, and it has kind of opened my eyes to how truly fucking awful most of the things I would eat daily actually are. I certainly would recommend it to others trying to lose weight, but advise they not rely on the accuracy of its data completely.
How about a hunger satisfaction meter? Number floats above food higher the number the more likely the food is to leave you not wanting to eat 10mins/2hrs later.

Naw dude, but it'd be really advantageous! During conversation the percent can change. It all depends on if you meant % at all, or % at the current point in time of looking at said %.

I imagine this would make things easier, actually. Either you'd see the counter at 0% in the beginning in not invest the time and energy into someone who clearly isn't interested in you, or you'd learn what you need to do to woo this person over with a positive feedback loop.
But the numbers would change. Try making a funny joke and bragging about how you just made a million bucks shorting some pharmaceutical stock option using complicated lingo, see that 0 turn into a 57. (note: financial comments do not need to based on reality). Also mention that you just got a new puppy, and were previously a professional chef. 73.
For the ppl your attracted to with a zero showing you get to play the mini game of spending enough time with them to raise the number, then when you realise they are a vain selfish arrogant waste of time but they're number is rising well above 75% you get to play the other mini game of walk the fuck away.

Pfft I never have to reconfigure drivers. Clearly you just have a bad chauffeur. If you have to tell him what to do every time you get a haircut you are doing it wrong. Besides, you can't cut more than 30 strands of hair at a time anyway.
It usually involves driving a bit differently, like maybe coasting as much as possible or something. You actively try to use as little gas as possible, instead of just driving normally. It often means driving slower than you'd like.
Yes, to me, that's just trying to get optimal gas mileage. Coasting up a hill/giving a little gas down a hill/using brakes as little as possible/shifting properly.
I've never heard of 'hyper mileing' and tbh, it sounds like some whacky hipster activist term.
Some people go to the store with coupons to save a few bucks. Then there are those 'extreme couponers' who show up to the store and receive hundreds of dollars of groceries and have the store end up paying them.

And then normally the pattern repeats every 106n+3 so for example in German it's: Million, Milliarde, Billion, Billiarde, Trillion, Trilliarde. That's also called long scale. The English system is short scale. And if I recall correctly for the Chinese 10000 is the basic scale, so they have words for every 104n
lets make it so it only applies to people of the gender you're attracted to, and also exclude family members it'd be kinda scary when i go to visit grandma and see 95%

The way I see it, you're going to be sad, empty, angry and insecure because of this at some point, no matter how it pans out. Might as well cut your losses early.
I've been through some similar shit, and yeah it hurts, but it will subside faster than you'd think. Those feelings will occasionally pop back into your life at odd times, but it will just be like an awkward nostalgia rather than pain. You'll be okay friend. I'm here if you ever want to talk!
Girlfriend of a year just broke up with me, said she didn't feel a connection. Sad thing is, I knew it was going to happen for a month, but I still loved her, so I held on and tried to convince myself we had a good relationship.

Same man. It hurts. 6 months of my life down the drain. Now she's with my best friend. I hope you get over it just fine like I'm trying to :)
The first things people who break a relationship on bad terms will say are usually the most hurtful things they think they can tell you. I'm sure I'd trust your judgements on your life more than mine, but people getting out of relationship will say some hurtful stuff to rationalize their choice or to try to bring you down.
You could just be horrible in every way,..but someone saying they weren't interested in you, after being with you for a while (unless this is some high-school sweetheart innocent shit) might just be projecting. Don't get too down on yourself.
I've tried to tell myself that a lot about my ex... that he knew he had the power to hurt me, and he used it. He always said that he could make me hate him if he wanted... and he succeeded. I think he was definitely projecting to an extent, because what he said doesn't line up with how he was behaving while we were together.
But that shit hurts worse than I thought. It trivialised our whole relationship, friendship and romantic. If they make the choice to end it, they shouldn't have to bring me down and try to goad me into saying something awful so they feel justified. :(
Thank you... I'm still trying to heal from what he did to me, I think that I'll keep your words in mind when I get discouraged. It takes way too much energy to hate someone.
Haters gonna hate! I was married for 11 years and was quite depressed from the shit my wife said after our divorce. Just got to tell yourself you are awesome, and if that person was with you...and YOU suck so much, what does that say about them? I'm just hitting my 30s and finally can look in the mirror and HONESTLY tell myself I think I'm amazing!

Haha, I like the way you think :) I don't need him to be happy or content with myself! I managed before him, and I'm managing after him as well. Funny how these things work :D
If you had it, you would never get into those kinds of relationships and probably change the way you think so that you don't even consider people with less than 10% as potential partners.
What would be great is something like "How receptive is this person to whatever your goal is." So it wouldn't just have to be attraction, you could look for the guy who's most likely to buy something from you, or do something for you, or anything, really. Much more versatile.
I would go with "number of people within 10 feet that would have sex with me if I just asked them." Then you can triangulate who would have sexual intercourse with you! Or if were more futuristic just have a 'mouse over halo' effect on those same people, but then you can't make jokes based on 10 foot distances with accuracy anymore.

Pro tip you can find this out by expressing interest during witty conversation, gradually escalating with touch and flirting pretty easily right? Unless you're a little bitch who is still bothered by rejection
As long as nobody else I meet has it. I have no idea how my number would fluctuate sometimes. And you couldn't flirt for fun with 0 intention of doing anything. It'd make work really weird too.

Someone on Reddit mentioned this loud awhile back, and it's odd how true this rings. Like, I can probably credit about five pounds of weight loss to that comment alone.

Right? I always lose weight when I'm poor, and gain it when I'm flush, because dammit cooking is fun and I like eating.
Avoid people because it's embarrassing to you, scary to them, potentially hitting people, you waste too much time explaining why you don't need them to call 911?
Is it like whole-body twerking, or just a specific body part? If you stayed in on heavy tic days, how many days a month would you remain at home?
Actually more like I don't want to inadvertently creep people out, haha although hitting them is a bit of a concern.
It's actually like a hip twitch that some people say looks like twerking, but the rest of my body ends up moving anyways. I don't think that a lot of people notice it usually, or at least don't say anything, and at least one of my friends didn't know for the first year I knew her so it's pretty under control now.
Honestly, it depends on how bad it is. Around seventh grade I began to have frequent "storms" where I would basically have nonstop full body twitches to the extent that I basically threw myself to the floor, I didn't go to school and switched to online school, and if it was that bad I might not ever leave the house.
For the most part though, my Tourrette's isn't that bad and a lot of people have it a lot worse. Sorry for the long post, I might have answered some things you didn't ask. If you have any more questions, I'd be happy to offer what little I know.
Zero real knowledge of Tourette's, but I pulled this from wikipedia:
"Immediately preceding tic onset, most individuals with Tourette's are aware of an urge, similar to the need to sneeze or scratch an itch. Individuals describe the need to tic as a buildup of tension, pressure, or energy which they consciously choose to release, as if they "had to do it" to relieve the sensation or until it feels "just right". Examples of the premonitory urge are the feeling of having something in one's throat, or a localized discomfort in the shoulders, leading to the need to clear one's throat or shrug the shoulders. The actual tic may be felt as relieving this tension or sensation, similar to scratching an itch. Another example is blinking to relieve an uncomfortable sensation in the eye. "
I'm confused about this part, as it seems many people with tourette's are embarrassed of the condition. If it's conscious, could they simply not do it? (even if the sensation would then not subside)
I feel like the sneeze analogy plays well here: You can feel a sneeze coming, and once you're about to sneeze, you just kind of give into it and let it happen, rather than try to hold it in. Sure, maybe you can clamp down hard enough and stifle it, but maybe you can't and just end up with snot on your shirt. Although sneezing generally isn't a pleasant process, just about everyone consciously "let's it happen", you know?
Again, no real knowledge of Tourette's, but that's my thinking process. I hope that made some sense lol
While I don't think we know the underlying cause, the medicine I take to treat it reduces the levels of dopamine and serotonin in the brain.
Also, while I'm not a doctor and I'm not sure that this is accepted anymore, I have heard that the tics are caused by a malfunctioning "filter" in the brain -- your brain usually generates a bunch of "junk" movements, which are then filtered out. In people with Tourrette's, this filter isn't fully functional.
Very interesting about the filter, thank you, I should like to know more
MrThom_ ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:31:56 on August 9, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
It's like a neurological disorder, and basically you just have a bunch of involuntary tics. Think of it like with motor tics (involving movements) as like a muscle spasm, tho it's something with the brain.

That and, like i said to OP,
I listen to "say Something" by christina aguilera and A Great Big World, and time my breathing to the little bits of piano that rhythmically occur throughout the song.
Do your tics vary so much day to day that you could stay in on heavy tic days and still live your regular life? Most people with migraines can take a day off once a month or so and still function.
If you stayed in on a heavy tic day, how many days a month would that mean? And, in your personal life, how do you define a heavy tic day? What happens when you are out & about on a heavy tic day?
They can vary a decent amount, but mine are mild enough that I can still mostly be a functioning human even on a bad day. Its just something ive kinda learned to deal with...I would say bad days for me end up happening maybe 4-5 times a month?
Heavy tic day for me mostly just means either any kind of vocal tic appearance, or that I'm basically doing my one neck tic like probably 10ish times a minute.
Again though, there's a whole range of what would be considered bad for me.
I usually try to avoid doing things that I know make it worse for me as well (not getting enough sleep, caffeine, stuff touching my neck)
Being in public makes them worse too, but not something I can really realistically avoid much hahah.
Edit: Answering the question I forgot. What happens when I go out and about on a bad day is I mostly just get funny looks from people on the bus or the street hahaha...plus side is no one wants to sit right next to the crazy person hitting herself on the bus!
Edit2: Seriously though I love to talk about this stuff. Feel free to ask any questions anyone has or pm me with them...I'm going to sleep now though and will be back in 8 hours

For in 5 hours when you wake:
does alcohol/drugs/medication have any affect? If so how?
Ive yet to try alcohol or drugs. SSRI's made them decrease a bit when I first went on them, but they have since returned to normal.
I would say its more like an itch. Hiccups you can't really stop. Tics I can supress for a certain time, its just really uncomfortable, and the pressure to do it (scratch the itch/tic) gets worse the longer you wait.

If your neurologist won't prescribe you drugs, but you want something, try Natural calm/ask your neurologist about it. you can get it on amazon, and it's like a magnesium supplement which i rely heavily on. Take it with something like iced tea, (haven't done anything like iced tea or water, don't do water, even though it's "flavorless" it has a subtle flavor which gets overpowered), get the original, or if you want, be fancy and get a flavored one (maybe it will taste better in water, i'm not sure).

not OP, but I have a similar situation where i can still somewhat function on a bad day, also have an annoying neck tic, so I can answer a bit i think. I take Natural Calm, which is a magnesium supplement, and it calms me down, tho i've become reliant on it, as if I miss a dose, I usually can't go to sleep, so this is why I drink iced tea at like 9:30pm sometimes. (It's "flavorless" so i don't notice it in iced tea, but in water, there is a slight flavor which sucks, hence why iced tea) and soon i'm going to start a prescription drug for my tics. And it kinda sorta is like hiccups I guess.

I have an issue with my neck tics, which is kinda like, you know how you crack your neck, but in various little directions. Sometimes if it happens a lot, especially if I go running from like Cross Country/Spring Track, I can get dizzy, so much so that I have to sit out. My coach is so understanding of me, I love him in that sense.
Not op obviously, but have tourrettes as well. I would probably watch my diet, as I find certain things can make the tics worse. And probably just stay a little bit more to myself. Wouldn't drastically change my day; would still go the gym because that's what I love doing and would still wrench on my car. But would probably avoid going out that night if I had planned on it. Most people with tourrettes tics aren't bad to the point where they are forced to alter thier lifestyles on days they are particularly bad. For example, mine effect my head movement, so when I tick I kind of either quickly move my head to the side. But when I really concentrate on something (ie, proper form when lifting weights, putting my car back together, taking a test) my tics drastically diminish. So I don't nescearily have to alter my life, because when I do something important or potentially dangerous, they diminish because I'm concentrated. But thats me. Also if you have any questions about tourrettes please inbox me or comment on this. Have grown up with it since I was a kid and there are so many misconceptions about it I just want to straighten them up. A lot more people openly make fun of people with tourrettes (yes even adults) and I think that maybe by spreading education, misconceptions can be cleared up and maybe the people who make fun of people with things that affect public appearence (such as tourrettes) will stop. So please ask away!

OK, so this sounds like guilty pleasure, but it's not. I listen to "say Something" by christina aguilera and A Great Big World, and time my breathing to the little bits of piano that rhythmically occur throughout the song. Also Like /u/EyeronOre said, if I can, usually I try to avoid socializing because I have this neck tic and it makes me look like a psychopath a bit, or I'm going mentally crazy, something of the sorts.
I also have tourrettes, so I hope I am an acceptable substitute. If I could know how much I would tic during each day, I would just become more reclusive and avoid social interaction with people I haven't already told. My tics are mostly facial, but if I had tics in my hand and needed to do something with fine motor skills, I might take some sort of relaxant.

I don't have tourettes, but I assume there are certain triggers you can avoid. There was a video of a girl with tourettes, and talking about what triggers it actually triggered it.
So she was giving a tour, or taking photos or on a tour with other people? Do you have the link? Was she giving a speech about it to them, or how did that come up on a tour?

are your tics mostly vocal or do you experience physical tics too? my doctors cant decide if i have a very physical form of OCD or tourette's. i guess i don't know enough about tourette's to compare my own symptoms. for so long i just figured it was very severe OCD
MrThom_ ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:48:45 on August 9, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Used to be mostly vocal, not mostly motor. If curious, here's a small bit on how Tourette's are diagnosed, not a professional. Maybe keep a small journal if you want. also I recommend visiting a neurologist if you haven't.
Tourette syndrome is a diagnosis that doctors make after verifying that the patient has had both motor and vocal tics for at least 1 year. The existence of other neurological or psychiatric conditions [these include childhood-onset involuntary movement disorders such as dystonia, or psychiatric disorders characterized by repetitive behaviors/movements (for example, stereotypic behaviors in autism and compulsive behaviors in obsessive-compulsive disorder - OCD] can also help doctors arrive at a diagnosis. Common tics are not often misdiagnosed by knowledgeable clinicians. But atypical symptoms or atypical presentation (for example, onset of symptoms in adulthood) may require specific specialty expertise for diagnosis.

Hey - I've got Tourette's too. I find that my tics are highly correlated with my anxiety level and my level of exhaustion. Do you have days where you otherwise feel fine but your tics are really bad? Granted I'm middle aged now and I didn't feel this way when I was younger, but I don't know if it's because it changed or I just became more self-aware.

I have(had) Tourette's too (terrible before puberty, now it's basically nonexistent with only very minor twitches), and the tics were based on stress levels. Deep breathing and visualization techniques really helped.

Why is everyone so depressing when it comes to dating and shit?
My name is Ben and I have turned around 20 minutes into a trip, even if it's just to the store, because I couldn't remember if I closed the garage door or not. Not once have I forgotten to close it, but I still get paranoid about it enough to turn around.
I'd like the squelch feature, because I do remember, but if I haven't closed the garage by the time the sentence is over it's taken as forgetting and the cycle begins anew.
The exact amount of calories in any given piece of food.
It would make it so much easier not to binge on ice cream after an otherwise good day.
Edit: I wasn't gonna do the whole edit-a-popular-comment thing, but here we are.
Thanks to everyone suggesting apps like MyFitnessPal, but the idea for the permanent HUD is it saves me having to look up and weigh food, plus it's an instant reminder to not binge rather than thinking about it halfway through like I normally do.

That would be so cool. There's a little 400 hovering over the bowl, but then you dig in with a spoon and the number changes to 350 and a little 50 appears over the spoonful.
Buy 2 litres of soda. Divide into 3-calorie cups. Each is now 5 calories. Pour back into bottle. The bottle now has 5/3 of its original caloric content. Repeat to taste. Then give it to your neighbours' kids and watch them have the sugar high of their life.
But the whole point of rounding is so that the host server doesn't have to keep track of low-calorie particles. If it only rounds on the display on the client side, the server still has to spend resources tracking stuff, and the client gets more overhead.
Right, but the original comment's intention was to cut host resource usage from infinite to finite, so even if you round to .1 calories the exploit can still be done assuming the world is still analogue.
Also I think if the client HUD rounded differently it is more for UI/aesthetic reasons? But I do suppose that in some super intense situations where the client is overburdened it is better to leave higher precision stuff up to the host.
I actually used it for about half a year. It's a great tool that helped me kick-start my weight loss journey. A constant, automatic reminder would just be awesome.
You have to assume the calories you are eating though. Unless you have a perfectly closed calorimeter and the patience to calculate the % of each compound in every meal you eat, and a scientific balance to weigh out everything you eat to determine how many calories are in it. So... no apps don't really cut it, might as well just guess.
Yeah but what counts as food? What if you saw the Calorie counts of everything? The clothes you wear, the ground you step on, even your pet dog. Is this number for the steak on my plate, or the plate itself?

Given how much energy it would take to remove a door, and prepare it for eating, I think you'd be good on this one.
Really not that much, a table saw with a shop vac attached and you could have that door turned into saw dust in under an hour. Just add milk and you have the most fibrous breakfast cereal in existence.

I think you could probably rig up a crude calorimeter, set the door on fire and figure it out with q = mcฮT. Not sure I can be arsed with that though.
Edit: okay fuck it I'm bored
According to Wikipedia, red oak has an energy density of 14.9 MJ/kg. Looking at the nearest door to me (a door in a hotel in Poole, England) I'm guessing it's about 6ยผ ft by 2ยฝ ft by 1 in which gives a volume of about 1.3 cubic feet. Oak has a density of 900 kg/m3 according to a quick Google search which means our door weighs around 36 kg (~80 lb). Burning the door would release 536 MJ of energy, which is 128,107 food calories. This is of course assuming the door is solid oak, if the door is a shitty hollow plywood job then it'll obviously contain less calories (and probably be a poor substitute in taste as well).
Yeah but I assume they want the calories your body could extract from it. That's going to be different than what you could get by burning it, right?

To be fair I did underestimate it a little, though doors in the UK can be pretty small in some older buildings (remember "old buildings" in the UK can date back to the Middle Ages).
I am assuming you did this already since you seem to know your shit but you are getting that number of 123,107 calories in KiloCalories, not just normal calories right? That might be what you mean by food calories but if not it becomes a measly 128 calorie meal.
I was wondering the same thing and did a quick search, 538 MJ is 128,021 kcal according to unit juggler. (The US calls kcal calories, for any Americans out there. I.e. 1 U.S. calorie on a food label is 1 kcal everywhere else).
There's probably somewhere that has the energy given by burning different types of wood, then just take that and multiply it by the volume of the door.

The UK, not only have we only partially adopted the metric system (most retail is metric but the roads are in miles for example) it also varies a lot between individuals. One bloke could weigh himself as 13 stone, drive five miles to the pub and buy an 8 oz steak with his pint of beer while another could weigh himself in kilos, hike eight kilometres to the shop and buy 1/2 a kilo of mince with his litre of gin.
We're generally fluent in both systems, although the younger, more urban and more to the South East you are the more metric units you probably use.

Nah, all the road signs are in yards and miles, with the speed limits in mph. Height signs are feet and metres because of foreign drivers smashing lorries into bridges.
If it's tied to your brain it would probably detect anything that you intended to eat. So if you see a plate of food in front of you it counts the calories in the food, but once you finish the food and start to nibble on the plate it will tell you that there's no calories in the plate.

That would be cool, see how many calories your best friend would bet you, or your pet chihuahua or maybe the asshole at work that has another thing coming.
I was thinking a calorie in/calorie out gauge. That way you always know when you're ahead of the curve and have a reminder when you're being a slovenly piece of shit. I'd be the latter today, but it would be nice to know how badly I fucked up.

Also myfitnesspal. But not having to weigh or calculate your portion would be great. Just put x amount on your plate and its 320 calories, or stop eating the bag of chips once you've seen the number drop by 160 calories, etc. Would make calorie counting so simple anyone could do.
Seriously this, especially with foods that have labels that are 1/26 of box. What am I suppose to fucking do just sit there and divide the whole thing up?

This always bothers me when I'm in Canada (where the nutritional information is displayed the same way as in the US). In the Netherlands on the front they can put any serving size on, but on the back there will always be the values per 100 grams. It's really great!
Right? Eveytime I get myself something fancy out of the foreign food section it's this amazing easy read of how many calories cookies will have. No tricks or anything. Why this isn't the standard is beyond me.

Yeah it'd be perfect. You would be able to regulate how many calories you intake pretty much perfectly.
Sure, but I'm rarely thinking about the number. I know I shouldn't, just not the extent that it'll set me back, and seeing the amount would definitely slow that down.
The let the self-loathing breed motivation, then action breeds results, which gives you more motivation, and you're good. Success is a loop, you can jump in at any point.
This would be amazing. Just a simple bar along the side, with projected daily burned calories, that fills with daily consumed calories, and then adjusts if you go for a jog or something.

Guys, MyFitnessPal App does exactly this. I lost 15 pounds in just a little over a month by just being aware of how many calories I was consuming and knowing when I needed to cut myself off. Just lacks a cool HUD :P
You should get My Fitness Pal and log your food before you plan to eat it. I back-pedalled from food so often when seeing the amount of calories, and I lost like 8 kilos that way :D
They do have that tho, it's called MyFittnessPal, and it can be downloaded on your phone which would be in front of your face displaying Pokรฉmon Go either way, so it pretty much works like a HUD

Pretty easy to tell, just stay still for a long time and see if the distance stays exactly the same. That means they're not moving. And if the distance from a specific point is the same every time you check, you can be pretty confident that they're totally immobile, so likely dead or comatose in a hospital bed.
It is but I would rather not know somebody has just died, and immediately be offered a 2nd choice. Imagine if you actually are already with the first soulmate and that happened.
There was a story I read a while back, it might have been on reddit. It was a scenario where everyone had a countdown on their wrist to when they would meet their soulmate. One guy doesn't believe in it, until he sees a guy across the street who's absolutely beautiful. The other guy notices him at the same time, and runs towards him, and is promptly hit by a car.
When the original guy reaches the street, he sees the other guy's wrist. The timer is stuck on some small number, 7 seconds or something, just like his. It remains stuck at 7 seconds forever, as a reminder than he will never find his soulmate and that he was the one who caused his soulmate's death.

Oh hush. Someone on this planet is perfect for me, and someone else is too, and a ton of other people. Just point me to the closest one and be done with it.
That's rather pessimistic man. You make your own story. Decide what makes you happy and go find it. If you look at life as a challenge it gets a lot harder.
Imagine, being married for ten years. You wake up, with a HUD. It shows a display: Proximity to Simulate: 25,000 m in the opposite direction of your wife, who is lying next to you.
follows arrow to the edge of the ocean...well shit
as an introvert, i would just want a proximity sensor in general, a bearing on who's around me and an indicator when someone is actively looking at me.
Good news! The fuel % is already in most cars.... Same with the velocity..... and the estimated distance and arrival time just takes a gps. Boom, we're almost there.
Same. Went to go rent some piece of shit car. They upgraded me to a BMW SUV. It was white. I felt like the most entitled piece of shit on the road. When I pulled out of the rental agency, I saw the HUD, and it blew my fucking mind.
You want a 3d image? The optics on a HUD are already finnicky. There's no way in hell I want to even think about trying to get a holo system in there too.
Fun fact that may not be true because I'm half asleep and can't really remember: HUD on car windshields is illegal in America and Canada. I'm not sure if it's illegal anywhere else.
I'm not surprised,it would depend heavily on the information that was put on them. If I recall correctly, this was an issue even when HUD displays were on fighter jets. Having flashing lights everywhere for sure would be a distraction.
At the same time though, the fact that I have a gps on my dashboard is also a disttaction, as is having to look down on my cluster unit. In this situation, it is probably better to have that information displayed on my windshield.
But having things like lane assist on my windshield might be more of a distraction as that would probably flash up five times in a trip.
I know my dad had a car where it would put your dashboard details on the windshield in front of you along with other stuff like radio details. Pretty cool

I think a lot of people underestimate how often they look at their watch/phone for the time. Having a clock HUD would be very useful, but at best it should be toggle-able. I wouldn't want to have it up all the time.
I'd like to add that if you're following someone, be able to put a marker above their car that shows where they are if they get too far away in traffic. Would have to have a request/approve function I imagine.
I feel like the crosshair would be the only non-useful one on the list. It would just be where your eyes are pointing, and you know exactly where your eyes are pointing.
Maybe to make it more useful you could turn it on and off. When you want to throw something in the thrash can, just turn it on and point at it. No more standing up!

Having the name of someone pop up when you look at them would be so helpful. Whenever I meet someone, their name is gone from my memory after a few seconds. After I remember their name, I get so anxious and scared that I will forget their name, or spell it wrong just because I know so many different names and I'm scared it will get mixed up into the invisible library of names I have in my brain. It really drives me nuts.

Alarm clock but instead of alerting you you simply fade out of sleep and stand up like a robot.
Wait. Most of these things make you pretty much a robot.
And if you pass a certain negative thresh hold, then you die. Crippling adds permanent negative counters to your health, and slowly ticks back down to 0 to show the progress of healing/recuperation of that wound.
What I mean is that a long time ago, when the tradition of wedding rings started, it was intended to signify that someone was taken (basically: "hands off this person").
Back then, the only two options were not engaged to be married, or engaged to be married.
Not saying I agree with this or anything, but just saying how it's interesting how we're basically looking for a modern day version of this.
Some friends, my husband and I were talking about this at a bbq not long before our wedding. The conversation came up because they all worked in the mining industry and someone asked if he'd wear a ring. He said no (which was the first I'd heard of it), and I suggested that maybe I wouldn't either (too much wine).
Everyone jumped up and down at me and said that I should wear one since the only reason he wouldn't was safety issues.
I mentioned that literally the only reason anyone wears a wedding ring is to announce to everyone that they aren't single, so if he didn't, then I wouldn't either. I really didn't think it was that big a deal, but it became a debate that lasted the whole night.
I was really surprised that others didn't see it the same way. They suggested it was a symbol of our love and our vows... but my thoughts are "a symbol for whom?".
I know I'm married, he knows I'm married, I know he loves me etc etc... why is a visible, prominent reminder required if not for other people's benefit?
Anyway, we've been together 10 years but it has always stuck in my mind so I'm weirdly pleased to see some validation of my thoughts by a random stranger online.
Just taking a guess, but I bet they are kind of traditional folks, and that on a subconscious level, they interpreted you saying you'd rather not wear your ring as saying to the world: "I'm open to flirting with other guys."
I'm a guy, and even I think that kind of logic is ridiculous. They are basically projecting that if not for a woman's ring, then some random, opportunistic guy is going to hit on her and manipulate her into cheating on her husband. Gimme a break. A person has to be really insecure to believe that the only thing preventing a wife from cheating is her ring.
Exactly! Especially when the same logic clearly didn't apply to my soon-to-be husband!
In the end we compromised. I said I would happily wear a ring to satisfy him as long as he wore one too, because we should have the same standards for each other, and he agreed to wear it at all times when not working.
Neither of us really care anymore, but it was a strange debate. He genuinely couldn't see the double standard between a wife having to brand herself as married to all and sundry while the husband had no such rules purely for the sake of tradition.
The really silly part was that he worked in foreign countries for large stretches of time while I stayed home with our son. A ring changes absolutely nothing in those circumstances but our trust levels are about unbreakable, symbol or no symbol.
Yeah, I agree with you, it is a double standard. But in all honesty, I think that issue emerged because a ton of women actually find a weird romantic aspect to their ring's symbolism as being "claimed" by a man. In other words, I think there are a lot of women who perpetuate that pressure on other married women to wear rings.
A lot of married women seem to love showing off their rings -- especially in a back-handed sort of way to their single lady friends. Like, "Check it out... I got myself a man who wanted me to be his woman for life!!" and then the obligatory: "Don't worry, you'll find the right guy some day!"
And yes, I promise I'm a guy, haha.

There's a number of fucked up people out there, but those fucked up people might be just normal enough that they prefer to harass a girl that might be single target than one in a relationship. Better to potentially protect yourself rather than make a statement.
Next time just tell them "I wear my ring on my hearth, I don't need to show it off. You only love your wife/husband if everyone seeing it?" - it usually shut up folks like these.
That's not because back then women were expected to be dating multiple men or anything. It's because the woman would be married off, then be thus off-limits.

On a slightly related note, I wonder how many people suffer from actual treatable social anxiety and have just convinced themselves that it's "introversion". I've met a few people who get a panic-freeze-reaction when interacting with semi-strangers but construe that as just being introverted. Don't get me wrong, I think it's good awareness and acceptance are increasing for introversion but I wonder how many people are hiding a diagnosable illness behind a personality trait.

I asked my 65 year old mother this. She didn't quite understand what a HUD is but got the gist.
She would like mountains.
Mountains. In her HUD.
Edit: After informing her that her comment was throughly enjoyed, she said if she can't have mountains she wants Chip and Dales, "cause [she] ain't dead yet".
I'd be down for an image display in one corner. I love the mountains I totally get where she's coming from. By the way it's pretty damn cool you asked your mother :)
This is called moving to a place where there's mountains.

"I said I want Mountains, why do you always have to question me. I'm your mother, I just want what's best, when you have kids you'll understand."

Would probably be rough at times, but oh so worth it. I'll be the first one to say that constructive criticism isn't always pleasant, but put this in the right hands and you basically have a superhero, or worst case scenario someone who just gets laid a lot.
I don't think it's really about being sensitive. If you know somebody's first impression of you is shit, you'll just forget about them. How many of our best relationships have started with a negative impression? Basically, if you can see negativity before it comes, you'll just avoid it.

If everyone knew what I think I'd be quite lonely. The good things would come across as creepy and the bad things sometimes are very bad.
If anything, after a certain amount of time I would assume it'd become a game. You'd hang out with people you get along with, and occasionally fuck with people to see how high you can get an angry meter going or what specific actions makes the biggest jump.

I once left my phone on record when I left the room in the middle of a meeting because I was convinced everyone was talking about me when I was out of earshot, and I wanted to know what they were saying. Turns out, they just went on with the meeting.
I agree with this but not with idea that you won't like people's opinions and stuff but rather the sheer amount of random thoughts a person is having while talking to you. Do you really want to know that they think the wrinkle in your shirt looks like a bunny? Do you care whether or not they left the front door open? Is it your business when they're going on a date with their girlfriend?
Look at their feet. If they point to you then they want to be in a conversation with you, if not then...
Now that I think about it, a HUD that looks for body language and micro-expressions would be pretty handy. Even a center of balance line would be useful if you're in security and trying to figure out what a person is carrying or protecting.
This is completely false. It's considered an aggressive stance to be standing and facing directly towards the other person during conversations. Instead most people (especially men) naturally tend to face each other at an indirect angle. This obviously includes their feet
I've always wished I could see or hear what people truly thought about me. It would most likely completely crush any and all self esteem of mine and lead to my early death, but it'd still be good to know.
That would be awful, you'd end up disliking a lot of people as a result of knowing what they feel about you. It would either make you into a bitter person unable to see anyone in the same way again or you would purposefully avoid contact to avoid meeting another person that doesn't like something about you. Both actions would show on the outside which would further add to the already negative feelings people have about you, feeding the flames of the problem.
just focus on some details. dreams never seem real to me (which is awesome for nightmares and awefull for sexdreams lol) like books will have mumbo jumbo text, periferal vision will be pretty much blank, voices will sound like you recalling a sound rather then an actual one and smells will either be abscent or exaggerated af. Or thats just me...who knows..
My dreams have no sound at all. I don't even have partial hear-loss, yet this doesn't help me with nightmares - they still feel fucking real, because I and other people do talk in my dreams, I just don't register it :/
Or look at a clock, remember the time, then look back. If the time changes you're in a dream.
Works with any text too, look at the text, remember it, then look back. In dreams it will be completely different text and often different colours and sizes each time you look back
Another one is to count the number of fingers on both hands.
It just takes practice, everybody wakes up on their first couple times, it's the "holy shit I'm dreaming" sensation that wakes you up. Just keep doing it and try to relax, if you freak out you are going to wake up every time.
The trick to doing checks are to do them all the time when you are awake. Do one right now, do one every 5 minutes. I do a check everytime I look at my phone.
AP246 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 13:39:09 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
But I always check the time like every ten minutes, all the time, and it doesn't change anything.
wake up an hour or two earlier than usual, then go back to sleep while staying aware of your situation.
this way you will skip the exploding head syndrome and sleep paralysis and go straight into a lucid dream.
when your world "collapses" meaning your sight becomes blurry, go with your face to the ground and look at it.your vision will become clear again because you are familiar with the ground.
also don't focus on things that make no sense,you will be confused and become fixated on it which may spiral into fear and the ebd of the dream.
I think the only time I've ever become aware I was dreaming was when I was dreaming about arguing with my mom, and all of a sudden she started singing the Muslim call to prayer in a male voice. I thought "wait, my mom's not Muslim..." and realized I was dreaming. Then I woke up to the sound of the call to prayer from the loudspeakers of the mosque across the street from my hostel. I guess it was a little like Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien in Inception.

Practice mostly. Most of the time the waking up comes from being too excited about the lucidity. Eventually you should be able to keep yourself calm and stay in the dream.
or try to use the light switch. Shit like that never works well in the dream world, because your subconcious cant tell the connection between flipping a switch on the wall and the lightbulb shining.
Yeah, but I will never think of doing that while dreaming, because my brain is retarded when it comes to dreams.

I LD occasionally, but I stick to DILD cuz I enjoy a regular sleep schedule, which means I have much less lucid dreams. generally what tips me off is poor motor control in general, not being able to see clearly, etc. Whenever i check if I'm dreaming, I generally already know, but I'm trying to make sure I'm not about to do something extremely embarassing
Another one is to check the time, look away, and check the time again. In real life the time would be the same, with a slight possibility of skipping ahead 1 minute. In a dream, it sometimes displays an entirely different time.
It does, and that's how I learned to have lucid dreams. What I figured out is that if I'm really not sure whether I'm dreaming then I definitely am. You might be able to intellectually entertain the notion that you're dreaming right now, but you still intuitively know you aren't. In a dream you aren't sure. Convince yourself of that truth and you can control your dream and have sex with everyone for 15 seconds until your brain activity wakes you up.
Ha, nice. Not sure how accurate that will be in 5-10 years though lol. Used to use my watch as a reality check because if the face was different that meant I was dreaming... smart watches kind of fucked that up lol.
count your fingers. If you count 5, you're awake, if you keep on counting forever it's a dream!
This works because in a dream state your brain can only focus on imagining one finger at a time, but not the whole hand at once while counting them. So when you go from one finger to the next you just imagine a new finger instead of counting one that's there, so you can count to infinity.
This is what I usually use started out counting now I normally don't end up counting but instead just look at my hand and see that it looks like I have a bunch of fingers.

I actually lucid dream relatively often, and it might be weird, but I find it irritating.
I mean, the nightmares are fucky, yeah, but most of my dreams are pretty freaking sweet, and suddenly lucid dreaming in the middle of say, me having a 1v1 spacefighter duel in the middle of a super-dense asteroid belt with my girlfriend as mission control informing me that I have less than three minutes to shoot down a nuke...
Lucid dreaming is like playing that moment in a videogame, and then enabling every cheat the console has. It's no longer fun. It's just me trying to get the dream to 'flip' so I forget that I'm lucid dreaming and can move on.
do people really not know? I always know but am not concious enough to do anything with that information most of the time. had a few (~10) lucid dreams where i could do anything but i mean the excitment was dapened by the fact that nothing seemed real.
the picture is clear untill you actually try to focus on details at which point you realize the picture was rather vague to begin with.

I'm assuming you're talking about lucid dreaming? Because a regular dream should be pretty obvious, along with the fact you're not making in-body decisions during it
Check a clock, then check it again, if it changeschanges radically, you're dreaming. Personally, I can fly in dreams, so I just check to see if I can fly.
Read something, look away and then read it again. If it stays the same then you're not dreaming.

When talking to someone about a very specific topic, I'd want to see how many hours they actually spent reading/learning about it to judge whether or not they are talking out of their ass
Edit: see what /u/Uncreatedbirch said, that might work better as many of you are pointing out that you can spend hours reading something but still end up knowing nothing or reading from a bullshit source or whatever
That could be a problem if all the hours they spent on it was a not very credible source. Imagine if over my head was "3451 hours" as I try to tell you all the reasons why Mercury being in retrograde means you should totally bid on that house two days from now, not immediately.
True but it would be a much better indication than time alone. I feel like most of the time though it would just be "Random bullshit" -Stranger from the internet
That was just me bullshitting some astrology terms. You can spend a lot of time studying astrology. It's all wrong.

How many hours would be good enough to determine some doors level lf authority though?
I can read a single biographical account of Napoleon in a month and then suddenly I'm more of an authority on the subject than 99% of the population. Yet I've spent thousands of hours sidings maths and I still don't know dick compared to professional mathematicians. I reckon I could teach you up to basic calc.
Most people have spent a shit ton of time on basic math in school. Also, just make the numbers more specific. I want to know how many hours you spent on topology for example.
i dunno if history quite works like that, you'd be missing out on a lot of nuance and background understanding when reading Napoleon's biography, for example his part in the suppression of Royalist rebels at the 13 Vendรฉmiaire battle might get at best a chapter but certainly not enough time to detail the back-story of the Armรฉe catholique et royale or much of the situation in Paris and France at the time so that when you read of that famous Whiff of Grapeshot you're hearing about it in somewhat of a vacuum and thus the conclusions you draw are less accurate and less sure.
Further is the Historical method, we have to understand that each piece of information has been derived, transported and polished before reaching us - who is writing this book, what are their general opinions on the evens and politics of the age? Karl Marx and Milton Freedman would write very different histories of the industrial revolution for example, not only do we have to understand bias in the person presenting it to us but to understand the school of study they belong to and the likely biases involved in their methods...
Math on the other hand is quite straight forward, recently I needed to understand how to balance algebraic equations for a programming project I was doing so I downloaded a free app on my phone and followed the instructions, did some exercises and examples a few times until it was locked in to my memory and now I'm perfectly capable of doing basic algebra - literally perfectly capable in that there is absolutely no difference in the answer i will provide with the answer Steven Hawking would provide, I could teach someone else and they'd gain this same ability.
So I think that in this regard subjective forms of understanding are much harder subjects to master, if we're going to determine how qualified someone is to speak then we certainly need to determine if they're delivering an actual fact or a subjective opinion.
Possibly the best truthiness display would be one which includes how much of a fact something is or how possible it is for someone to know that - for example if I tell you that in the bible the word Hashmallim appears in the bible exactly once then this is a fact which is fairly easy for me to have established, you could check it yourself with the inclination however if I then said that in biblical times this word was part of a secret code used by a pre-biblical society of which no record remains then you'd quite rightly say 'how could you possible know that then?!' So a knowability bar which turns green if something is both a fact and a true fact.
Subjective opinions we'd then need the bar showing the scope of their background knowledge, their level of bias and intent - someone might know loads about a subject but have conveniently forgotten to mention all possible counterarguments they know until the morning after Brexit... This isn't because they didn't know or were biased in their learning it's because they're tory cunts.
That really depends on the person. Most of the information in my brain wasn't studied, I picked it up from someplace and it just stuck with me. I wouldn't consider watching a documentary, a past time that I enjoy, learning/study.
This kinda digs into philosophy here but for the sake of improvement, maybe just a list of a few of whatever the universe thinks are the most influential speech options?

It would never be infinity. A finite number divided by zero is also undefined, never zero. It would be 1 (same number of kills as deaths) until you kill the first spider, then it would become undefined, then when you die you get a number.
A friend of a friend got bitten by a brown recluse, and when he went to the ER they assumed he just had the flu or something.
I think a day later he returned and after running some tests they airlifted him to Harborview in Seattle, amputated both legs, and performed open heart surgery.
After a couple of weeks doctors noticed that a stitch was missed during the heart surgery and a bubble formed that had to be removed. It burst during the second operation and he died.
Of all the things you could note you'd wanna know how how many spiders you've killed in a decimal form.

I really like this one. It changes depending on how the rules of the universe work though. If fate is a thing and we don't really have a choice in what we do it'd just be a constant number and your life would be the same with a number displayed on your retinas, boring.
The much more interesting approach is the undetermined future. Every choice you make would change the timer, and every choice everyone else makes could change it too. Example: Your clock changes to hours one day as you walk on the bus. You either get out and get a new time or you walk on and that guy that would have run into your bus suddenly realized he forgot his wallet at home, changing the timer again. The time would fluctuate like crazy all the time. It'd be interesting to know how close you'd come to death every day, and you could possibly avoid a lot of things by getting a heads up like that. Say I hire a hitman to kill me if I don't win the lottery(or some other gamble or bet, probably something easier to bruteforce than a lottery ticket) and keep changing it until the time displayed my desired number. You'd be able to do all sorts of weird stuff with a device like that.

This could make a pretty cool story idea. Imagine seeing it change based on which actions you take. You could get a real scare if you suddenly see a year disappear.
Really? Dude, that'd be awesome early on (would suck balls later though). You'd know that, barring you doing something stupid or having an unforeseen accident, no sickness will kill you. Though you'd likely die of something before that clock ran out.
Unless it's tied to destiny somehow and not your bodies genetic clock, then you'd have the luxury of knowing NOTHING could kill you until that clock ran out... Which isn't necessarily a good thing.

A stamina meter.
I'm not in fantastic shape and I've hated running since I was a kid. I think if I had a meter that would tell me "No dude, you aren't really about to pass out, you have like 60% stamina left and just don't like running." I might do a bit better job of getting in shape and could hate exercising less.
I've heard Navy SEALS have a concept that they refer to as the 40% rule. They say that when your brain tells you you can't go any further or do anything more, your body is actually 40% done and you have much more left.
That said, don't go getting heat exhaustion or rhabdo or anything.

I often wonder how far I could run, or how fast I could run a mile, or whatever, if I ignored the pain and discomfort and just did it to my maximum ability, even if it meant passing out exactly at the end.
Yes! Also a pain meter telling you if the pain is indicative of something serious or if it's nothing to worry about. I have a hard time telling the difference when working out. Worrying about what pain means gets to my head before the raw pain ever does.

-An ADHD text that pops up when I am distracted from my immediate task. Driving to the grocery store, but am distracted by a yard sale - popup "You are heading to the grocery store because you are out of milk. Do not turn right."
Of course, it would have an override switch.
Now I'm at the yard sale about to buy a colander. Text pop up: "You own three colanders that you forgot about. Is this colander any better or different that the colanders you already own?"
-At IKEA - "The items in your cart total $137. X items were not on your original list. Items a, b & c you already own. Items m, l, n are the wrong size for your intended usage. Items p, q, r are there due to impulse and are not really needed."
After each question, I give an answer on whether I really want those items or not. Removing them from the cart results in minions cheering for good decision.
-Also, it would show me my bank account balance, my credit card balance and normal bill costs. THEN each time I put an item in my cart, it would reduce the account balance. Next, recalculate the balance of my credit cards to show how much lower they would be if I put that amount towards the balance.
-Same thing with my weight when I pick up something to eat.

I feel that that would so much anxiety and depression for all the victims of car crashes like "Oh Shit I have six minutes left how did that happen" and BAM your dead
But what if everyone else has 6 minutes except for Brad in the back? He has years left, and everyone else in the car fucking hates and Brad with their last 6 minutes.
Tyler: Oh shit, 6 minutes? Guess this is goodbye dudes.
Chorus of farewells and some crying from everyone else
Brad: What are you talking about man? I still have over 20 years!
I would freak out. Just imagine: doing things, everything in hurry, as the minutes go down slowly, one by one. I couldn't sleep: "I only have 20 years, 2 months, 14 days and 20 hours to live! And after game over! How I could waste my time for sleeping???" Even worse, if you count how much you would sleep from this time. Then I would die from caffeine overdose.
Now I think I have like, 70 years to live, so who cares about sleeping? I rarely think about it. But a CONSTANT reminder? No thanks :D

If your that close to empty you need to start saving a little more each month. Just build up a month or two of reserve and you don't have to worry about it
Id like Heart Rate, range finder, night vision mode, infrared mode, telescopic vision,(for seeing in the far distance) , x-ray mode (to see if anyone has weapons or stuff) wind speed, wind direction, total biological wattage (like power meters for cyclists but it takes into account everything, so for instance at rest your body might be burning 100 watts of energy to maintain body temperature), health alert warning system (warns of any health stuff, from dehydration to low vitamins levels, to high immune system activity) oxygen consumption levels, minimap (useful for social events or driving on the highway, even highlights threats and police) target speed and direction (target could be anything from a bird flying over you to your opponent in a bike race) and an uplink to download and update more HUD features and parameters.
Vitals mine and everyone visible, lie detector, gps, colorie intake/output, police radar, Windspeed and direction, temperature gauge, humidity gauge, money in the bank, bullet counter and google.
Counting calories is maybe the worst part of dieting, and involves so much guesstimating that at best you're getting a broad ballpark that's almost always skewed low. Knowing exactly how many calories you eat as you eat them, along with a running total of your daily intake, would be amazing.
A little green to red indicator for how easy it will be to get this person to sleep with you, like Pokemon Go, but instead of razzberries, it's alcohol.

Karma
Edit I keep a tally of sorts in my head, when something goes my way it drains my metre depending on how good, when it get lower i need to do too it up with good deeds or I'm scared something bad will happen but if bad things happen it increases the metre, the worst days of my life I just remember thatsomething good will be more likely to happen soon.
I could use something that translates what people have said to what they actually mean or want. I have far too many fake or passive aggressive people in my life that I'm stuck with.
Some measure of relationship status with people around you. Not too specific because that would be way too much to handle, but broader things like Excellent, good, ok, meh, bad, terrible.
Or a comparability percentage with people so you know who you will get along with better so you can choose who to talk to while avoiding potential fights and stuff
OMGH. We could link google glass with a simple dating site. Then use facial recognition software to match the person to the profile. When you meet another person on the site, their account details display on your HUD.
The map with all the markers for special events, treasure drops, important adventure / quest triggers, collectibles, other players, direction & distance to target objective.
A meter showing the actual interest of the person I'm interacting with. I could become quite successful with that. I'd learn what makes everyone tick and go on to have mutually beneficial interactions the rest of my life.
Some combination of Arnie's T2 and T3 HUDs...but less murder-y and terminal screen-y.

Definitely not the amount of money I don't have.
I'll settle for a mini map and side quest markers.
How much money I spent, in order of the day's spending, then the spending for the week, finally the month. Budgeting would come more naturally, maybe I wouldn't have to put $5 dollars in my gas tank to get across the fcking street.

Calories consumed vs calories expended. Would make weight management so much simpler.
Blood pressure, heart rate, blood sugar, essential vitamin and mineral levels, what the "right" food to eat next should be, organ function mini-dash like a series of check-engine lights... Basically, knowing exactly what's going on in the body and being alerted if anything is wrong.
A quest log with an accompanying quest map line like in dead space.
Choose my objective and see where I need to go to complete it.

Etiquette and protocol. If people have preferred pronouns, nicknames, information they'd like me to know; if they want to be approached or spoken to or would rather be left alone; if they're playing a social game that I am also playing; if they have specific religious preferences or requirements that they would like to be observed (not shaking hands or not eating pork or whatever). I'd like that.

Every person that come into contact with, I would want their names displayed next to their faces, along with age and job title.
Also, I'm a cop so if it was an offender, then I would want their criminal record, most dangerous convictions, and possible gang affiliations posted below their names and aliases. (mugshots would also be helpfull due to possible computer error.) (I'd volunteer to be robocop in a heartbeat.)
My life "sustainability" ratio. If I'm doing something that I can't keep up - staying awake too long each night, working a job that's killing me, or spending too much money each day - the ratio falls below 1 and I have to make appropriate changes to bring it back up. If I make positive choices like consistently eating healthier or performing well in a sustainable job, the ratio goes above 1 and I know to keep doing what I'm doing.
Just having that one single measurement of how well I'm doing "my thing" would save me a world of hurt.
Quest markers, and quest details. There'd always be something to tell you (and constantly remind you) what you need to get done, sort of like a list of things you're destined to do.
I'll have the Hud from fallout. So I can see exactly what leg, arm, or other body part is injured.

A gauge showing the level of attraction towards me of a woman that i set a mental marker on. Think about a certain girl, the gauge shows her current level of attraction. During conversation the gauge works in real-time.
Actual hunger meter and how much a food would fill it! I overeat sometimes and this would be perfect to both see when its perfect to stop eating and also what would save me money!
The problem is that life isn't a a game, so lets brainstorm some ideas for a hud system that would work with the RL game engine we have.
Howbout a quest tracker? Fallout has that and it's pretty simple. I need to be able to offload my brainload so I can Pokemon Go in peace, but damn if that email doesn't sent, there will be hell to pay. A post-it note on the edge of my vision to keep me on track, or a simple grocery list; a quest tracker would help me keep my immediate goals in hand.
What about a map? Pokemon Go has me with my phone out at all times, and now my mini-map is only as far as my left hand. Put that on the hud, make it integrate with my phone and let me see what's nearby using Google Maps.
Howbout driving? Between augmented reality routing (Saints Row 3) and a minimalistic oncoming roadsign display (Burnout Paradise) we could really help drivers pull away from their instrument panels, heck, throw in a spedometer for anyone with a need for speed
We use our cell phones for everything, but how much could be done with a simple hud? What is your primary clock? Chances are >50% you do not wear a watch, so let's cut out the daily seconds spent checking your phone.
A real life hud should exist, and there are plenty of practical applications for it. Give me an open source retina implant, and let's fix us some real life crimes of inefficiency.
Average spending per hour, 30 day average, monthly estimate based on this.
Calories ingested, calories spent, net balance 3 days.
Blood alcohol content.
Heart rate, pressure and temperature.
The nice thing is, this is technogically possible, we just need the intra-ocular HUD.
Nobody mentioned Wanted Level as featured in GTA so far.
But yeah, realtime medical data or physical training data would be awesome. Also physics analysis, like when you throw a basketball through the hoop, it shows you the trajectory, the throwing angle, the max height, the spin ratio, etc. - great learning feedback for improving exercises.

A floating box next to everyone I've met's face with their name, where we met, and key facts that they shared or from our interactions.
I want a target finder but instead of finding hostiles I can filter it to find whatever I need at that time..
Horny- focuses on girls willing to hookup
Hungry- places/people who have food
Need Money- places/people to steal from with no chance of getting caught
and since this got very criminal very fast, it might as well have the Target Finder mode too since I'm now a prostitute fucking, sandwich stealing, successful bank robber:)
quest indicator
you can walk up to someone, they do all the talking, you hand over some fresh animal remains, and you get a shiny new object. without it, you will most likely have the wrong npc selected and trigger aggro with ASPCA

total calories consumed plus the amount needed to reach maintenance. Would make finding your TDEE super easy, a lot less people would be fat, and I'd be shredded like a sickkunt.

To show how many people the person I'm looking at has slept with.

A graph that tells me how much kcal, fat, proteins and carbohydrates I need per day to keep my weight. Can be switched to stats to lose weight or gain weight too.
It would obviously change when you eat something, so no manual entries.
Trouble shooting, if something happens a window pops up telling you how to fix things. (e.g. someones starts choking and a diagram of the heimlich pops up or your old analog clock stops and instructions on how to fix it pop up)
I've dreamed of this. A future brilliant evolutionary a avant guard approach to their own existence... The LCD/glasses (lil' like google glass?ish) would be programmed to replace visual advertisements such as billboards, banner ads, pop-ups, etc... With art. Paintings. Beauty. Affirmations. Instructions. "Think of a person you are deeply grateful for from your past and send them a THANKU note expressing your gratitude" "Stretch" ..."Deep Breathe".... And on the dark days my HUD would remind me to not listen to the dark associate and his list of reasons why I should commit suicide.
A search bar that lets me type in a lost item then it tells me where it is.

Reputation.
I would immediately know when I do something unlikeable to others, so eventually I could become the most charismatic person ever.
Friendship/relationship level displayed on top of people.
You'd be able to see who actually likes you and who is just being nice. Who likes you as a friend and wholikes you. Who is interested in you and just shy and who is uninterested.
As a bonus, I'd want name and surname displayed on acquaintances.
an overall percentage indicator telling me how healthy I am. I would be able to constantly try increasing it, finally figure out the perfect exercise and eating routine, and know if any pain was serious if I saw a large percentage drop. I would like at least two decimal places.

You all think so small. I'd want a minimap with all of the useful things you have on it in games. Nearby enemies, friends, quest goals, treasures, towns, etc.. You'd know where to go next to continue what you're trying to accomplish, know where not to go, know where to find things to make money with (you'd be the guy buying the random crap that ends up worth millions at yard sales and such) and so on. Plus you'd have no use for gps and wouldn't get lost.

I'd like to see a timer for when I will absolutely need to use the bathroom (I have IBD). It would allow me much more freedom and reduce the stress of having to find a bathroom and stay near it all the time.
A distance overlay. I'm useless at telling what "50 yards" is. Would be so helpful with street signs or guessing how long it would take to walk somewhere.
A meter that lets me know how interested a female is in me. That way, I would alway be comfortable with approaching them since I know they wouldn't blow me off. And if they did, well, I'd know they are bluffing
I'd like something g that tells me my likeibility, how's the status of my relationship with each if, they're sexually interested in me or not, and how close of friends I am with people
It really depends. Alot of people get these terms from gaming or videos, and even within the real world. Alot of different displays are classified as a HUD for short.
I would like a relations counter like in EU4. Above each persons head you see a number. +200 means best friend, 0 means neutral/stranger, -200 means they hate your guts. Even better if there's a small symbol next to the number showing how they view you. A green heart means they view you as a friend, a red heart means they view you as a love interest, a fire means they view you with hostility, and no symbol means they're neutral to you.

external threat assessment.
Or
Calculation of calories exerted to calories taken in to monitor weight gain vs loss.
It's easy to forget about that stuff when you're at work, stressed, and your employee brings in a box of donuts, or chips or something. Then you go out to a friend's for dinner, and they serve apple pie with ice cream for desert, and then you realise at the end of the day "shit...."

A list of al the things I could have done if I didn't waste my time on useless shit, constantly motivating me to do something about it. or depressing, I don't know.
"Another hour spent on reddit ! That's about the time it would have taken you to finish that task you've been postponing for the last 4 years. Good job !"
Another thing the Simpsons already did when Homer was looking for a suitable date and he had that Terminator HUD with people's info appearing when you aim your eye/crosshair over them
Switch the inventory and nav, and you've got me sold. Nav needs to be low so you have better peripheral on the road and what's directly in your path.
Unless you're worried about sky sharks. Then looking up is advisable
Who is a virgin and who isn't, so you can confront them on whether or not they are a virgin and if someone says they're a virgin, you can see if they are lying or being serious. Only would work on people of legal age, because looking at whether kids are virgins is fucked up
A simple console window that boots up any version of linux, with all the programs and infinite memory/speed. I would type commands using my mind. Think of the possibilities, run vim in your brain!
I was just continuing to beat the dead horse of 'hurr durr can't close vim' But honestly if you haven't used it before it's very hard to figure out without a man page in front of you.
My Financials. How much I have in the bank, what I owe and when. I think seeing it constantly would help me a lot to avoid impulse purchases and be aware of my spending.
Screw waypoints. HUD would just remember for me. "Hey, where did I leave my sunglasses?"
He (hot Australian guy) scans through my life video to the point where I left my sunglasses. Shows me an image of where they are. Of course, the video would have uncrackable security so no one could break in and watch me pee or pick my nose.

Better to know if I might need to take a piss now than later.
Though another thing I'd want if that couldn't be a reality is if it looked like an FPS HUD and whenever I did something like eating, an ammo counter would count down.
So like, coffee and such is like an energy weapon that runs out of charge.
An inventory-list. Having to look inside all your pockets to see if or if not your keys are on your person. Or if someone has pickpocketed you, That is something that annoys me to no end.

A funds counter that keeps track of the money you can access immediately. That way you don't need to log in to your bank's website every time you want to make a purchase and still be able to eat.
I want a little red diamond to highlight the location of Law Enforcement like a radar lock on a jet fighters' HUD. If not in my contacts then at least in my motorcycle face shield sinked to my radar detector.
I'd love to see a small tab thing of what people want to talk about or what's on their mind when I'm looking at them. I find it so hard to create conversation because I don't know what people want to talk about
Quick tip to anyone reading this there is a webtoon out there called "The Gamer". It's a korean one, but really good and actually deals about how a high school students reacts to having a pop-up window appear in front of him in real life.

A radar like a FPS game. Any and all mobile objects, with a little up/down arrow to show their orientation above or below you. You'd be nigh impossible to surprise except for that one douchebag you know that only crouches to move anywheres.
Heals per second. If I help someone it goes up for as long as it affects them, dropping little by little as it drifts out of their mind. If I say something comforting it goes up while they are comforted. Can also go negative if I end up annoying someone too much.

Ive always pictured HUDs in school. One that shows everyones grade etc. Figured it would always be cool and motivate people to get better grades since theirs is displayed above their head!
How interested is the wife meter. Basic colour scale or 0 to 100 percent is fine. Just want to be able to get home with a known for once. Is she mad? Is she horny? Is she meh? Should I make margaritas? That type of information would be cool.
A constant live map with mental marker points I could place and label.
Different color schemes to identify shortcuts and the like.
A timer displaying how much time I have left and levels on key terms like athletics, strength, intelligence, etc..
I'd also like a display on my hunger and thirst, that way I know when I'm actually hungry and not just getting influenced by commercial propaganda or adds.
Stamina bar would be nice.
A compass display.
Also, a automated display of options I have on any situation to help nervous or quick decision making.
The average cost per day of each piece of clothing I'm wearing, so that I could tell which garments were the real bargains... and which items weren't worth it.
Good or bad level of people you meet so you know if you should trust or not this guy . Also people will make an efort to be decent human beings since it will afect te way people see them.

My lines, as subtitles, before I say them. Would make me a better conversationalist and help stop me saying stupid things.
Not that I'm constantly drunk, but for the times I had a beer then think I want food it would be nice to put a number on being responsible. Plus I could figure out my optimal BAC% while not having a hangover. Man that'd be great.
And the comment about the soulmate proximity too, I guess.
A danger level number floating next to an object / person. Dude wearing a hoodie, with his hands in his pockets, at the middle of the night in a dark alley? 0 because he doesn't possess an evil intent, just an insomniac. It would be good to identify threats, like a spider's values may change depending on how it's about to respond.
How much money (cash, credit, and debit separated) I have on me. That way I don't have to sweat nervously every time I use my card. Plus it would be handy when handling bills, eliminating the stress of keeping up with how much you've spent.

A relationship meter for whoever I was looking at, displaying the positivity/negativity of a relationship, along with the type. And you can toggle comments.
So like "97%: Friends. [Would take a bullet for you]
"67%: Dating. [It's not that they don't like you, but they're pretty much settling until something better comes along]
-20%: Employer. [Those sick days you keep taking around the releases of new games are getting noticed]
-100%: Wife. [What happened to you two? You must have been in love, at some point. Where did it all go wrong? It used to be passionate lovemaking and breakfast in bed. Now its endless nagging, arguments that end with her going to stay with her sister, and you're pretty sure she's banging Bob while you're at work. You both want a divorce, and you both know it, but you're just so deep in the rut and can't bring yourself to change your life like that because you're scared. Then there's the kids, and you don't even want to think about losing custody, but you know you would.]
A countdown, to the minute, of when my next menses will start. I'd never have to worry if it's ok to wear white on a certain day, or wonder if I'm pregnant and rush to buy a pregnancy test.
Proximity to law enforcement. Id be a lot less inclined to do dumb shit if I knew a cop was close by, but much more confident in doing dumb shit if I knew they weren't.

A display of how much sleep I need to feel energetic the next day, along with a timer for how long I have until I become tired again.
Contact details (names and methods of contact I have for everyone I meet)
A minimap would be nice, as well as a quest system, with automatic logging
My level of competence in my current task compared to my peers in related task and my progress to reach the next incremental level of competence in that task
Like an alert system or something for when someone in my vicinity finds me attractive or likes me so I can act on it without being so terrified and anxious.
names of people up over their heads, like the sims. if legible, a little list of notes like a CRM app: kids/spouse names, last thing we talked about, etc.
that's actually one of the things i'm looking forward to most when personal AR ends up being a common reality.
-a calorie counter in real time that recalculates it as i exercise/eat
-nutritional breakdown of what I've eaten as a percentage of what I need/can consume for the day
-warning notifications if i eat too much/too little of something or if Im beginning to injure one of my body parts (i.e. running too much will injure my knees)
probably won't want this up 24/7, but the option to bring it up would be so fucking cool
edit: it would also be awesome to be able to transfer my daily data to a computer or app or something to document it all. kind of like a built in Strava for my body.
Well I just had a dream where I could complete legendary quests at work to unlock promotions and bonuses. That would be nice. Knowing how much approval you need with your boss. Knowing if you worked hard enough to safely go home. Knowing your success chance when applying for jobs.

The glowing eyeball above everyone else's head so that I know if they are noticing me or not. Also, arrow's that point to the way I need to go to complete a task.
It would be interesting to watch how it changed based on your actions too. Go to the gym, timer gets +1 day. Smoke a cigarette, timer loses 10 minutes. Something like that.
I think you'd definitely see a lot healthier eating and living.

(stay inside all week) "Charisma reduced by 1/Isolation skill boosted by 1"

Or actually, the whole compass from Skyrim. I would be extremely interested as to where the quest marker leads given that I wouldn't know if I accepted a quest or not.
A BAC gauge. It'd be nice to know just how "tipsy" I really was before I did something. It would be like a reverse healthbar where the more you drink, the fuller it gets until completely full is you dead.
Quest markers for doing shit, Kinda like skyrim or the Stanley Parable adventure line, That thing you need? There's an idiot proof line drawn to it, and the item glows until you acquire it.
Also, Dialogue trees but still with the option to freeform. Just with the nonpredictability possibility.

GPS and a compass. My sense of direction is so bad that I managed to walk a circle in Minecraft once, while trying to walk straight ahead. Not even lying. And it took me a year to stop getting lost when I was more than 3 streets from my then-new home.
And a name above people's heads. I'm almost worse with names than I am with directions.

Primarily nothing because of the immersion breaking. But if I had to, a compass and probably my current coordinates, oh and a clock, and the weather, and map markers and a stamina bar, people's names, distances away from objects, the contents of containers... and a cross hair.

Probably an unpopular one, but hydration level. Dehydration can cause fatigue, headaches, general discomfort, lack of energy in physical activity, etc. But sometimes it's just so easy to forget that you haven't had enough water in a day and by the time you start drinking the water, you're already dehydrated and it takes like a day to get back to being fully hydrated.
An In-Conversation Disposition display. My social life would be so much easier if I could tell someone already loves me/hates me, or just wherever I stand with someone. I'd be able to see what relationships need work and which ones I could afford to back off from for a little bit.
A human being hud. Who is around me and where. So I can know I'm safe.

A blip on a mini map for where my husband and son are in real time, or in what direction I can find them. The same option for my Niece and Nephew and Father.
Easy access to a list of mundane achievements and the progress towards a certain goal. Like how many times I have stubbed my toe on the foot of my bed, times I have/have not had to go back inside because I forgot something, times I didn't hear someone asking for me or times I made people smile etc..
An indicator of JUST how much my body in particular really needs of certain nourishment. I swear I would eat more vegetables, but at this point I only really like cucumbers regularly.
I would just love to see advertisements popup every so often that just completely fill my vision. Come to think of it, I could really use frequent 30 second breaks from life just to see what awesome products are on sale at the stores that already spam me. And hey if I get tired of the ads for only $247 more a month I can upgrade to the gold edition which removes the ads and gives me cool and useful features like custom clock designs and new skins for my waypoint that I never use. Also I would love to have my GPS setting reset every morning without telling me - because turning off tracking clearly means that I want comcast to know where I am. Oh and most importantly, I could go without all of that as long as I have wonky night-vision - and don't let me adjust it myself when it is strobe-lighting me while I'm driving; can't have me accidentally damaging my precious money fountainsI mean eyes.
If we're going to ignore all the crazy overpowered things like knowing the best possible thing to say I'd want to always know my available spending money.

When at work I need a status display of all my modules, if they're down or running bad parts or running out resin and if telling the future is possible show the next incoming breakdown or issue. I'd be the most effective technician while spending more time on break just watching the HUD.

The name of the person I am talking to, with a link to their bio. I am awful at remembering names and such, but will remember random crap. "Hey cool guy I spent a weekend hanging out with in a group, you told funny stories and hurt your toe jumping in the water. What's your name, where do you work again, I forget, are you married?"
I feel like if I had a HUD that showed calroic intake and went red when you went into an unhealthy level with this guy beside it, I think I could actually lose weight.
Number 2 would haunt you all the time and you'd live your life in fear of how close you were to death every second of the day. I would hate that constant reminder of how fragile life is and how easy it can end, no thankyou!
Just plain old karma.
I get lost in the day to day activities and I would like a constant reminder on how im paying things forward. Id like to think "when you can, when its not too much of a burden, when you think it prudent", but i'd like to go to bed knowing things are better than when i woke up for the people i affect.

And then the sad reality of watching it decline, and having no real idea of how to make it move forward, because all you've been told is moving it, slowly but surely, into the triple, and then the inescapable quintuple negatives (assuming it uses a non-decimal system, and points being given in a minimalistic sense, not 10's at a time)
..more like a scale. Just a weight and a counter-weight. Your way would be cool too, though.
[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:57:26 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
That would imply that it's easy to balance karma, and actions don't merit much worth. In truth, seeing a number, coloured to boot, positive and negative, maybe some sense of bar, indicating the lowest karma someone currently has, and the highest, placing your little arrow, showing your karma, relative to theirs, while showing overall karma, central being zero/neutral. From green to red, or whatever colour is fitting/pre-set. but the highest and lowest would be constantly shifting to match their respective bearers. On top of which, would imply both the highest and lowest don't have to be even, let's face it, they're reflecting a persons karma, not overall, meaning both sides and increase and decrease, based on the values held at the time.
No, just my personal karma. The little, thoughful, harried being that runs around in my head and makes me set an alarm, hold a door, cuss under my breath (or out loud). My little personal scorecard. Something i would want to see in my fantasy "heads up display". It does seem a little fanciful, but that was the criteria.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:15:17 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah... But again, that implies it becomes easy to balance. It might be easier on a day by day basis, but not a collective of your overall karma. So, the idea does require an overall measurement actually makes it more functional. I'm not saying it should be like a leaderboard, but, more of an overall balance, so you can see where you stand, allowing yourself to become a far better person

Who was thinking about me and, briefly, why. Assuming everyone has a HUD, we can assume there is a way to tap into people's bodies, and probably thoughts. Id like to see a pic of who was thinking about me and something like "Misses You" or "Thinking about what Birthday present to get you." Then you can close the notification. Specific I know but it's my answer.
Clock, phone battery level, bus card balance, changes I have in my pocket, wallet alarm, attractive girls radar, distance from my destination, and an adaptable map.
Something like detective vision in Batman Arkham games that would highlight people through walls with information about them; and highlight important/interactive objects (like a tv remote, cell phone, or important document).

You know how when you place the racing car simulators you get a model/picture of the car on your display (sometimes) and it highlights what parts are damaged and need repair? I'd like that, for my body.
An inventory screen, provided it works like in skyrim. Want to change? No problem! Just select the other price of clothing and you are wearing it instantly! Know exactly how much you can carry without impediment, not to mention that everything you pick up seems to go into a pocket dimension, so no need to actually carry it.

The medical state of my bowels. I have IBS and it would be great to know how far from a bathroom I need to be at any moment. Cause that shit will hit you at the most random times.
I would like an awareness meter of of the woman I'm checking out. Not a yes or no, cause I know they know. But more of a sliding scale that maybe goes from Oh That's Sweet to If This Fucker Doesn't Stop Staring At Me, I'm Gouging His Eyes Out. I just don't want to overstep myself.
I would honestly love to know if people are watching me, that way if I do something stupid I know wether or not I should be embarrassed and hate myself!
a stress meter. it would included both eustress and distress. To be the most productive you would want to keep the eustress as high as possible but as soon as the distress started rising you'd know you had to take a break to do something else.
Seems like everyone just wants a fully functional Pip-Boy with Fallout 3 style discussions. With Skyrim quest marker, theme music selection and lie detector mods.
Health and stamina indicators.
Status effect markers, with duration and possible corrective action tooltips. (Food poisoning: 6h. Hungry: Inf. [Eat something])
Toggleable context pop-ups on objects within vision. (Taco Bell: Cures Hungry. May cause Diarrhea [20m delayed onset, 2h, 60% chance])
Something that tells me how much of my 300 pound inventory is left. Because then I have both an inventory, and am able to carry 300 pounds on my back, with any shape of sword, shield, body parts all in a handy backpack, that may or may not be visible to anyone.

The amount of things I need to say or interact with a certain person to get them to like me. Like you best friend can have a 99% full heart meter and a total stranger could have like 22% or something. And what you say change the amount it displayed so you will know when you are close with some fam
Life bar, obviously. if it starts to go down, I know to immediately stop doing whatever i'm doing and/or find help. Munitions level monitoring system would also be neat. probably always empty, but it's no real HUD without one.
Some color coding that would point out Girls who are like the Pele of anal, and or are good at bjs to the level of sucking the chrome off a trailer hitch or a golf ball through a garden hose and are DTF insane little horny fucking machines that will call you daddy and want a good spanking. It would be nice if they can cook too.
Oh and which ones are Chernobyl levels of batshit crazy and will attempt to make your life miserable every single moment they can. You can usually tell but it would be nice to have some flashing lights and warning sirens, especially when you are horny and or drunk.
Everyone wants health related things? Well, if I had a personal HUD I'd just always have the time on. What else, do you really need to always be aware of?
While driving I'd also like the velocimeter to be on my HUD, I guess. But that's not always on.
I guess a minimap would also make sense. With the way to your destination traced on the map. But I might turn that off if I'm not going anywhere.
I figure the cool thing about a HUD would be the possibility of constant change. You see someone and you can check if you're mistaken or you really do know them. Perhaps put an alarm so it tells you when a friend is spotted. That'd be cool, but not ''always on''.

Something like Fallout 4's HP bar - where you have a traditional health bar, with an indicator of how much lower your max is due to radiation damage. For real life it would just be other ailments instead of only radiation damage, like sleep deprivation, BMI, smoking, being poisoned, etc. with things that heal naturally, like a sprain or a cut, being from the main "health" pool.
E.g. currently at 80%, but 20% is "blocked" due to other factors, so you're as healthy as you can be right now, but you could be healthier if you fixed some of the long-term issues. It would also indicate just how badly the long-term stuff is affecting you ("eh, not getting enough sleep is only knocking 5% off, but I'm hitting more milestones elsewhere to make up for it.").

A simple countdown timer for how long you have until you shit.
Heart rate, blood pressure, calories in/out, step counter, route guidance, a tactical overlay that highlights possible threats like guns, knives, blunt objects, aggressive driving and collision prediction, that look at you with malice or something, wanted criminals, etc.
That'd be a good start I think. You'd want to be able to change the program based in activities as well. Driving would have its own functions for speed, guidance, fuel economy, vehicle health etc. White water rafting could analyze currents and provide guidance. Emergency subroutines could be always on but only activate when in certain conditions. In a fire it could give you escape routes based on temperature and co2 readings. If you're being attacked or mugged it would highlight possible weapons.
You could even have subroutines for sports. Analyzing a line of scrimmage or ball trajectory. Display wind speed and direction calculate angles and driving force. The possibilities are endless.
One that displays everyones kill count, I'd win for the most >:D

Countdown to death. But a few different countdowns. One for if I keep going on my current life path, one if I start exercising and eating healthier, and another with percentage of death by accident based on what's happening around me.
-My BPM,
-My oxygen,
-A map of the 30 mile radius,
-What X person thinks of me,
-Who X person is,
-What X person is thinking currently,
-My 10 best things I can say ranked from
Smartest, Orange,
Funniest, Green,
Most romantic, Pink,
Most pointless, Red,
Most seductive, Yellow
Most stupid, Black
Most angering, Blue
And I pick what I want when I.E. What X persons name is, followed by what X person is thing, followed by best thing I can say.
My current luck rating (out of 100). Every time I decide to gamble on something (a decision, asking a girl/guy/gender neutral being/identifies as an inanimate object/rock out on a date, real gambling) I'd be rich, successful, and everyone would hate me (probably).
A little red dot on the map if there's a person who wants to harm me near by, a blue dot for a friendly. It's minor, and I imagine I'll use the blue dot much more in my life than the red, but imagine always bumping into friends or people who will become friends.
Snapchat filters. Wife being a bitch? Dogface snapchat filter. Boss being an asshole? Unicorn puking a rainbow snapchat filter. Life would be so much better.
Debuff/disease/illness type of thing. It'd be so amazing to just be doing your thing, see that you just caught the "melanoma debuff", and book an appointment the next day and catch that shit early.

a custom map marker destination ala skyrim, but I can set it to be a specific person or item, and if they move it updates to show where they currently are.
so if I lose my phone and I'm trying to catch a ride I can just go "marker: ride" and head their way to get picked up faster, or that kind of thing.

I want conversation percentage counters by the faces of people I am talking to. I know I am bad about talking too much about myself, but I don't realize in the moment, it's only later I start kicking myself.

Directional "danger" warnings that change color according to amount of danger (eg. Green for stuff like a slap, yellow for incoming moderately painful physical harm and red for anything potentially fatal) and a display that shows where I am injured and the severity of the injury.
Lie detector, mood detector, status menu listing my body's exact needs, and my fun widget would be one of those arousal meters like in sex mini games so I can add an extra level of fun in bed.
I would want an indicator that tells me if I have enough time to make a left turn at a green light. So many times, cars are going so much slower than I think they are, and I end up sitting there yelling "I COULD HAVE GONE 3 TIMES OVER! I WISH I KNEW YOU WERE GOING 20 FUCKING MILES PER HOUR!"

I want a quest log for every quest I take. There will tons of small sidequests like doing laundry, finishing work paperwork but also larger quests with quest chains of their own you can choose like getting with the girl next door.
Of course theres an overarching main quests chain that ends with you ruling the world of everything is played right.
I may be a little late, but I'd like to have a button you could click if you were interested in someone, and if they also clicked it you both get to see.
A readout of some information from the mind of the person I choose. Usually automatically set to whoever I'm talking to or looking at though. Can be used for determining weather the other person is lying and also to get into their inner thoughts with a simple readout

1)A small notepad that I can pull up to keep track of what a professor is explaining so I have something to fall back on if I miss something while taking notes.
2)A notification bubble that lets me know if I've been infected with something or if some other shit is gking down.
Combat Points for every individual I come across relative to a base score for me. So basically, it lets me know if I could take whoever I'm looking at. Also, their weak points.
1) Names. I suck at remembering names, so having people's names over their heads would be super helpful.
2) Influence levels, updated in realtime. In my role, knowing how much influence I have over a person, and whether or not I'm increasing or decreasing that level, would be super valuable.
I would like a bar which showed how interested people were in what I had to say. I am a tour guide for my university so I'm really curious why some people are there sometimes.

Mental health bars. Something going from green to red, green being relaxed and red being about to have a breakdown. I'd always try to stay in the middle which would be the optimum amount of stress to be active.
Maybe another one to let me know when I'm near a threshold to develop depression just to do more self care stuff and not take on more responsibility at that time.
This might sound weird for the question, but... my weight. I honestly haven't known my weight in three years, just because the ONE scale we have has a dead battery and no-one can be fucking bothered to get watch batteries for it.
I'd like for people to have colored auras around them based on their current emotional state.
Red = Anger/Frustration
Blue = Sad/Depressed
Green = Jealous
Indigo = Excited
Purple = Horny
Pink = Enamored
Orange = Embarrassed/Ashamed
Yellow = Happy/Jubilant
Violet = Tired/Exhausted
Brown = Incredibly annoyed that the colors listed above aren't in the proper order

A running chat dialogue box for anyone that is in direct conversation with me.
"Crap, what was it that she wanted me to pick up?"
Stats on my brain chemical levels, both short term readings and trends. I think it'd not only help me manage my mental disorders but also provide data to encourage me in random long and short term endeavors.
I'd Like a timer countdown on when you're going to have to take a dump, with bars that scale on how intense said shit is going to be and whether or not its a solid or a soft, or the dreaded spicy water type. Nothing sucks more than getting caught off guard stuck in traffic on the highway with that spicy water type.....
Couldn't hurt to have a little sub bar with a readout on what your next farts going to be like too, you know like, is it going to pass unnoticed or will it drop a grown human to its knees a.k.a is it safe to drop this here or should I wait.
If we can have magical huds that can tell what conversation choices we can have, I'd rather go full cyborg and get a a "quick metabolize alcohol" hud interface. Let also have said button get bigger with my alcohol content. Maybe have it be snarky too. Like, "dude, seriously, quick metabolize your alcohol" and then "METABOLIZE ALCOHOL!!" when it gets to dangerous territory or I can see my car in any way. Actually, maybe that should just be automated.
Object finder: How close am I to the object I'm looking for, in meters (metric system), from my right hand.
It can go down to decimals, but I'd settle for it to only go down to 1m. Searching for an object in 1m3 is a lot easier than in your whole house.
Extra : when looking for someone, the object I'm looking for is their phone.
Extra 2: It doesn't have to be specific. "Looking for the switch for this light" or "looking for a glass" in a house, or "Find the case of beer that contains the tickets to win a prize".

This implies you could have other things displayed but one thing all the time and I would love to have some form of Crosshair/Gravity (drop) indicator if I was gonna throw or shoot something. some other things would be like if an illness popped up or something idk
A percentage above whatever item I'm fixated on that shows how useful that item will be to me at any given moment. Hungry? I'll eat the food that has the most filling effect. Need a tool to help fix something? A spatula has a 67% useful rate. It'll do.
An indicator of when my wife is going to have a "bat shit crazy" moment. I could better predict her episodes and know when to bail to save a super ugly fight.
Also a period count down because then I could crub cravings and give everyone a proper heads up... I'm always irregular.
Way points and place locations with contest sensitivity. Free car spaces, accessible toilets when you gotta go, markers for where your friends are in a crowded place or your kids in a carnival. Oh and that one thing you can never find like keys or a thing at the supermarket.

Game Mode:
Simply look at a rectangular surface and you can play Tetris, or PacMan, or Snake.
Making your finger and thumb like a gun visually simulates a gun in your hand, and your friends can do this too. You can arm yourself with a grenade by holding an apple. You can arm yourself with an M-16 by holding an umbrella. But the game system doesn't work unless you make BANG BANG noises.
At kids birthday parties, you play Fruit Ninja with balloons.
I wouldn't mind seeing rare or elite indicators on people. I end up wasting to much time with common women, co workers, etc. They usually drop no loot or disproportionately less loot than the time it took to make it drop warrants.
Battery indicator. I don't was a go out on a night where I have to run my body in power saving mode. I wanna go out late when I know I can run all processes at 100% for a few hours.
A hint/tooltip pop up that provides additional information about what I'm looking at/the current situation. So taking a test or trying to solve a money problem it pops up with the relevant formula or a relevant suggestion to come up with the money.
Seriously, a little tip next to everything in life could make me so much more successful.
Edit: Better yet, let it show a message from my subconscious. All the crap I've forgotten or learned without realizing or putting words to the gut feeling I have. Now that would be handy. Direct line to all that super genius knowledge we have but can't use.

Total amount of calories in my system. Sure, there's an app I could use on my phone, but how crazy convenient would it be to just fill a meter as you eat? Worrying about workout nutrition would be a thing of the past!

Dialog/action choices showing the percentage of success and what actions it will lead too. Look at the different options to ask for a raise, or to go on a date, or to skip work..etc. Seeing which choice will have the highest probability of success.
An accurate display of my hunger level. I would love to know if im hungry because need to eat food or if im hungry because i want to eat something tasty or that im just bored.
Whenever something is on the tip of my tongue, or I forget a name or title or quote, or I just start spouting untruth of any variety, I would like relevant wiki articles, google searches, subreddits, IMDb pages and other links to pop up to help clarify.

A blood sugar and nutrition meter (note: not hunger meter). That way if I get hungry, I can glance at those meters and figure out if I actually need to eat or my stomach is just being a douchebag.
I would like to see a golden brick road in front of me highlighting the most beneficial path. Tips pop up about best modes of locomotion for each situation. There are guide pointers to various points of interest and necessary tasks. All the good people have a golden halo above their heads and tips pop up on how best to help them and how best to learn from them. All the bad people have huge devil horns and tips pop up about how best to hustle them and how best to vanquish them.
Progress bars for your current task/s. At the gym? Progress to next level of fitness and the perks that come with it (you can now run faster and for longer than your peers in case of a bear attack, yay!).
For the info, I'd go for the usual speed, altitude and coordinates, also something that indicates my current ability to do sports, like "energy available", blood oxygen, pressure, heart rate and an indicator for when I'm close to straining a muscle or tendon. Master caution "button" should be included.
Edit: and the option to do a bunch of BITs in case of aches or pains and display the results.
I'd like to be given options for upcoming dialogue that show the risk of each sentence.
Also it would be really cool to see some sort of skill meter go up when I get better at something. It would be a cool thing to visualize.

People's name displayed above their head whenever I'm talking to them. Holy shit, I'm very very bad with names. I must be retarded or something since I forget names in 2 minutes and can't even remember names of people after a year.
Heartrate monitor, with colors depending on severity or risk of some kind of problem. Also, WAY more post-processing esque effects. Had a good meal? Vision turns a warm orange for a moment. Suffered an injury? Pain dependent severity on how vision would be impacted, such as amount of red, blurring, tunnel vision, etc. Just healed said wound? Vision goes a minty green with a bit of extra contrast. Vision progressively losing color on the scale of completely conscious to completely unconscious.
Maybe it's just me, I like that kind of stuff. Visual feedback is really neat.

A hunger meter, so I know when I'm full and can stop over-eating.
Extensive information on anyone I interact with. Name, interests, and level of interest at the moment, just for a start. I think that would be extremely helpful for those of us who are socially awkward.
I've always wished there was a little meter that displayed a woman's attraction to me in an observable metric that let me know whether she'd be willing to bang me or not. Updated in real time, of course.
This way, I would only flirt with girls who I knew enjoyed it and treat everyone else on a strictly professional level.
It'd be cool to have a HUD which shows the amount of time you have till your death. Like a death timer. You'll learn to value time more and spend each moment in that limited life doing the things you love. Although, it would get scary when the timer gets closer to zero and you know you're going to die soon.

I was thinking maybe the amount of cash I have on hand, but then I realized that would do nothing more than just remind me that I can't really afford anything.
The amount of calories I need to take in daily and updates how many I've taken in. Same thing with fats, carbs, and protein. And for an added bonus if marks if I'm in danger and shows an icon of what exactly in in danger of (i.e. Gun if in danger of being shot, animal for animal attack, nuclear warhead for incoming nuclear world war that'll leave the world in ruins, etc).
Compass indicator with direction and distance marker to WIFE, so I can start doing / stop doing whatever it is I'm supposed / not supposed to be doing, when she approaches.

It would also help with keeping me at a healthy weight.

As someone who has a sensitive stomach, I'd like some sort of info on my next "movement". Like, what's the greatest distance to a toilet I need to remain at?
A red outline around people who you are likely to end up in a fight with. Based on their interactions with you, previous interactions with people like you bit mainly if they are violent. Just so you know who to walk away from or when to get ready. Help to combat against muggings.

Social preparedness number for each person. So a person that's having a bad day has a low number and people who would love to chat have a high number. That way I can give people that need space that space and people who want to talk can.
Aside from most of the ridiculous stuff on here, I feel like most of these suggestions can be made possible with smart glasses coming in the near future. That's crazy to think about

An analysis that displays how the action I'm about to take affects my life expectancy. E.g. Statistically speaking, eating that 40 oz porterhouse shaves half a day off my life, or some such.
Whenever I start a some sort of task, or endeavor to compete an errand, I want to know how long I have before time expires and that task is no longer able to be finished.
I actually made a fuel indicator for my body with a callorie defficit adjuster to help me loose weight.
The progress bar slowly drains and the callories at the bottom right show how many of them i have left till i run out, as well as the date and time when i run out.screenshot.
A red alert counting all of my calorie intake, notifying me when I reach the limit after which I'm gonna get fat. Till then, I can munch on all the cookies and fries I want.
Forever the best compuational and graphic capability of the latest top level gaming PC projected on my field of vision with an on/off switch. With 3D projected keyboard and interface and other interface options. With access to peripherals outside my body.
An exclamation mark of some other form of notification when a life changing event is about to happen (kinda like paragon/renegade moves from Mass Effect)
E.g. Pass by a random person, screen flashes, do nothing = nothing changes; start a conversation = end up married
Gaydar. Would make life so much less awkward. Alternatively, and more seriously, if less likely, something like Deus Ex's C.A.S.I.E. implant where it can show me more or less how a conversation's going and how the other person's feeling.

Personally, I've spent a fair bit of time thinking of this because I want some bionics (even though I'd never get them).
subtitles for everything
Witcher senses style esp to detect living things and movements through walls or obstructions
A map, with gps, and a display indicating the audible range for anything I do.
A health display, monitoring specific organs and structures so if I'm injured I know what to do about it. Blood capacity %, drugs, toxicity, and hormone levels would be also be nice.
I'd probably have to go with a nope display, even levels of nope....like brown recluse spider nope level would be "light everything on fire" level of nope. Avoiding a disastrous person whom has romantic interest in you could be "don't fuck crazy" level of nope. Perhaps the crazy elderly neighbor could be "do you want to hear about cats for 3 hours" nope level. If the nope isn't averted, it displays solutions to the nope as the situation evolves.

A small summary of your daily nutrition, like a small wheel of coloured segments that changed from green to red, depending on how much of your daily quota you've consumed of fat, salt, etc and a percentage calories total of the daily target. If you look at food or drink, the on-board AI would identify it and animate the changes to that wheel and percentage allowance. Sort of a diet wing-buddy or bitching Betty, if you like.
It could also nag you to eat more specific foods and supplements as the AI would know what you'd eaten and where the nutritional gaps where.

How long it's been since the person I'm talking to washed their hands.
Since I'm a mechanic, step by step 3d instructions on how to perform this or that intervention on our machines and an indicator that tells me if i did it correctly or what's wrong with it.
A success chance indicated by colour on every conversation option.
Like in Fallout where it indicates the likeliness of each option from working based on your charisma. So I can always say the best thing, and know when not to say certain things.
A medical diagnosis of my body h24, with status of every organs, state of hydratation, level of sugar and injuries/diseases alert.
I hope nanotechnology and brain implants will someday give us this advantage. Knowing your body's status w/o having to visit a doctor and live at every moment would be revolutionary.
On a scale of 1 to 10, my chances of scoring a one night stand with a member of the opposite sex, of course after filtering out those I stand a risk of getting a life threatening disease from.

nkTesla ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 08:57:37 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
It would display a list of people i have within my eyesight. Checking on a single person i could have a complete history and every possible information about them. such as personal information, bank accounts, rpg characteristics (stamina, dexterity), their life history log, what person they are, felonies records and even secrets and feelings. The hud would also allow me to interact with them and provide me the best decision path based on all the above information and personality to manipulate them if i wanted so, like make someone through a simple conversation to hand me over his ferrari and be happy about it, get that blonde chick to get an abortion without falling apart emotionally etc.
like it would help to see who likes you but it'd help me see who I really like and who I don't because I have trouble telling actual interaction from attraction
I'd want there to be a relationship meter whenever I look at someone and start talking to them so I could realize if I've said something wrong and try to fix it. It would be like a VN.

Caloric+nutritional intake required, stats on food as well as specific indicators for health and body damage.
A little bit out there but I'd also like to be able to detect alignment at will like in D&D or Pathfinder. Being able to look at someone and know they're chaotic evil or some shit beforehand would save a lot of troubles down the road.
A direction and distance indicator that always lets you know where are how far away certain people are, so you can easily find / avoid them. Like, it'll help you keep tabs on your kids in a busy shopping mall, and avoid your wife and boss whenever you want.
i would like a organisation of my thoghts. i could re argange my nurons and save, i could save a visualization of something im drawing, i could pin thoghts to avoid forgetting.
would like invisibility as a defult but a make it public option.
random thoghts like a song stuck in my head would not be good in a library.
A bar showing the percent chance i have to charm a person wether for business or romantic purposes. Plus maybe suggested interests that certain people might have.

I think having some kind of scanner would be sweet. Scan food to find out its nutritional value, objects to find out what they're made of and the ability to request additional info, how old it is or something like that, people to get basic vitals or detect weapons. I just think it'd be awesome to be able to break down the world around you into something more than just stuff and random passerby's
as a pilot, i wish i have a Full ECAM system in my body, like calories needed, calories burned, times awake, full diagnostics reports and blood leveles and pressure charts..etc
but i will also have ''inter-human Radar'' that gives me info on other people in real time, especially girls, their availability status, personality ID and sexy time desire
A full quest HUD. A checklist of what I suppose to do on my main routines. Timer of how long have I not done that quest(job application for example, been more than a month since my last interview) and of course subquest that I can input a la !remind me bot.
Stealing from LinkedIn and applying to everyone: your "connections" in common. It's weird how many people randomly know people you know even though they are in different "networks". Sometimes you find out, sometimes not.
Currently an intern, I'd love to have example sentences to talk with people.. I have no idea how to tell them I want more stuff to do because I'm already done..
A minimap with adjustable waypoints . Something along the lines of Saint's Row 4, where it had a dotted line that shows the quickest path from your current the location. Miss a turn? The path adjusts to the new route. Go around that shady alley? We got you covered.

A blue beam extending up to the sky signaling where I should be at that particular moment. If it was too hard to see the beam, a yellow path would be overlaid on the ground.

Stats of people that hover above their heads. For men it would show a females (or males if you put your settings to the homosexual or whatever the politically correct term is nowadays) stats on loyalty, humor, any mental issues etc etc.
Number of remaining days in my life so that I can value each one more. That number should change based on my life decisions (things I choose to eat, drink, risky things like smoking)
or number of days I have lived (more realistic) so that I can be more productive.
Extra spooky: when you first put it on it days "Days remaining: 0.2"

Seriously though, I find the idea of a hud really odd. Like, of course it works on a computer game, but I can't quite picture in my own head how it would look...
On the computer you focus on individual things - like an enemy, then you focus on the minimap, then you focus on your ammo... So I find it strange "focusing" to the bottom left and seeing health for example - like would it be on your peripheral vision or what?

Something like a real-life gaydar would be good. I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned already. Or maybe it's just too crass or takes the enjoyment out of things.

Well I'd like a list of all the different replies I can have in a conversation and two of them are always shit but one is always really witty and the clear choice to get me laid/promoted/etc
I want the bars from the Sims. I'M REAL UNCOMFORTABLE AND I NEED TO PEE SOON better take care of both of those real quick. I can also see if how I'm laying down is going to kill my back in the morning.
Who (of compatible sexuality) thinks you're attractive + they're single or in an open relationship. Edit out and don't display the ones who don't meet those criteria.
How they feel about me above their heads. No worrying about if a girl I like is interested in me and I know all my friends genuinely like me, rather than just being with me out of politeness.
Time spent on my phone. It's my go to when bored. When I should read or meditate, I'm on my phone instead. A HUD would probably help me stop that habit.

An IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) squawk from everyone. Shady guy on the street? He's got the friend tag. I can relax. Quiet dude standing suspiciously near that ATM? Foe code. Hot girl making eyes at the bar...ok, I'll need a set of landing lights too. How else do I know if I'm waved off?
A "Stupid meter" that indicates the level of stupidity on every person around you.
Hey Doc i have this.... "lvl 80" bye Doc.
Hello Officer what have i... "lvl 99" You are absolutely right Officer.
I will build a wall and make them pay for it... "lvl error!".
Edit: you might suffer from depressions after a while...
Chance percentage. Basically, it tells you what's the chance of success of your next action. (I.e chance to get mad/offended)
That would stop me from doing all the "stupid stuff".
How well a conversation would go if I just walked up to them and said hello. Wouldn't be useful all the time but could definitely help in some situations
Maybe a number above peoples heads displaying how many days it's been since they've had sex... So if you meet someone with a three digit number over their heads then you know it's probably best not to fuck around with them.
I'm torn between a bar which is simply current motivation levels and something that tracks diseases. I feel like knowing my current motivation would be amazing for productivity (as well as figuring out what keeps me motivated) but being able to tell when I am sick, or someone else is would be great. I'd also make random hook ups much safer.
I work in transportation for a company that transports the elderly and people with disabilities.
I'd love a minimap display with icons indicating where I need to go like GTA; arrows pointing to where I need to go and to have the destinations outlined like in Crazy Taxi; maybe have the route I need to take illuminated with a line on the pavement like in some racing games.
Other things I'd like to see would be to have calm, gentle music play when I'm in safe areas and then when I enter a dangerous area, the music fades into tense warning music so I know immediately I should go somewhere else or prepare for battle.
โข A health status bar

Exactly like in the SNES Zelda game. I want a row of hearts on the top-right to show how far from death I am, and a green bar meter on the top-left to indicate the level of my awesome magical power. In the top-center of my display, an icon to show what magic artifact I currently have equipped. With a HUD like that, I will PWN.
Definitely not the weather...apparently everyone else making stuff thinks we really care about the weather. Although, maybe if it were accurate, I'd appreciate it more.
Pardon me if this has been said already, but I would want to know my hydration level. Would be great to know how close to dehydration I really am.

It would be kind of cool to have an inebriation meter. It could be as simple looking as a rev counter or on a car or something. Green is sober and then the further toward red the arrow goes, the worse off you are.
It would be useful for showing you that its time to hail a cab and go home because you are just far too drunk to be around other people without grossing them out or making them want to fight you.
It would be especially useful for me because i am someone who is very bad at smoking weed. I could do just enough to where I am having an okay time rather than overdoing it and getting so high that I am too afraid to go upstairs where my room is..
It would also enable me to do it socially like some people do. I could take a few hits with them to show that I'm not a cop or something and would not have to worry about trapping myself in my own eternal prison for a few hours and having to call an uber home because I am "way too high, clearly having a very bad time and should probably just go home and go to sleep because you are freaking everyone out"

An indicator summarizing my current "distraction level" or "focus level". It would be neat to have immediate feedback telling me when my focus is wavering, so I can figure out what it is that's drawing me away from my task.

None of these should be things that stress you out (raise your level of cortisol).

erm no ones wants the score? like if you do something right, your score increases, and vice versa. everything you do has an effect. you can reveal other people's score too for a small decrease in your own.
Complete overlay of every health related stat. Blood pressure, heart beat, hydration levels, salt levels, food levels, temperature. Etc. Just the simple stats.
Someone's disposition of me. Kind of like in Sims how there's a bar that indicates how much someone likes you/hates you. And every time I say something there's either a plus, minus, two pluses, etc. It would certainly help me with ladies...
Biological age, hormone levels, neurotransmitter levels, calories burned/ingested, bodyfat prrcentage, and a facial analyzer for people around me to determine health, age, phenotype, emotion, and anxiety.
Health, XP, a minimap, the weather. If I had a pause menu, it'd have health, XP, inventory, quests, my party (max 3 characters), and time since last save. Also options.
Life trophies. Like Xbox and PlayStation do.
You're an ass all day and ding Asshat trophy you have sex a lot ding Orgasmo
That and sex stats like you hook up with someone and you both get orgasm "health bars" everyone move lowers it and once it's depleted O FACE!!! GYRO! ITS SUPER EFFECTIVE!!
A prompt giving the best response to any situation to achieve exactly what you want.
Need to pick a good song for the road trip? This one's best.
Want that girl to go on a date with you? This is how you ask.
I'd love to see my "energy levels". I always overdo and overspend my energy and end up sore, tired, unable to get out of bed, my IBS flares up and my joints are on fire and I become useless. I'd love to know when I'm reaching the point where I'll regret it the next day so I can stop and feel functional all the time.
I'd really like an HP level, or like an Average Level of Health, and eating unhealthy foods bring it down, or doing physical activities bring it up. That, and like a skill tree that levels up whenever you do stuff, so if you do construction, your construction skill goes up because you learn, stuff like that. And a mental status meter or social status meter/relationship meters to see on what level of relationship you are with your friends, and how close you are to them.
I would like to have a bunch of responses appear on the hud any time I would be asked a question. That way I hopefully wouldn't stutter as much when I speak
As a diabetic, I would really like a live feed of what my current blood glucose level is.
To add to that, I'd also like to be able to see the direction in which the number is heading (slope?)
If anyone is interested there are devices knows as CGMs (Continuous Glucose Monitor) which do exactly this from a hand held reciever. PM me for more info!
I would want a bullshit meter. Whenever someone puts me down, screws me over, or life just generally sucks, it fills up a little. Naturally throughout the course of the day it gradually fills a bit just from being awake. At the end of the day I can see if today was really so bad or not. I'd be able to look over my history and see how things have been over the course of a week/month/year/life and also make estimates for the future.

Optional quests/plotlines.
I.e. If I want to meet and take home a girl, a series of objectives are provided to reach that.
If I want to be a millionaire, different quest paths are provided.
If I want to have magic powers, another quest line.
If I am bored, an objective to reach in the city which will lead me on some adventure.

Some sort of AR system that displays notes like in Dark Souls. Little digitized markers that you can highlight with useful tips on them, or just silly garbage.
Names above people because I always forget everyone's names.
Enhanced body language reader because I still have trouble recognizing whether or not someone liked or didn't like something I said or how they processed it.
Calendar alerts with map integration (including ETA and a little blinky dot thing for the person I'm meeting/meeting place). Generally I'm OK at keeping my appointments in my head, but I'm terrible with directions and I always end up arriving at places at least 20 minutes early just out of fear of getting lost and becoming late as a result.
Also, in general, having map/quest markers on my life HUD would be super-useful for going out on runs; I hate having to stop or slow down on a new route to figure out where the next relevant bus stop/Tube/road that would let me loop back home is.

On wow you can get your gear score (is that what it was called? Been a few years.) it would be nice to have something like that but for general fitness and endurance. Or something involving healthy eating and hydration...
Some kind of skill point tree/system would be great. I don't really know if it only counts as one thing, but imagine reading a book and getting a INT lv up, now you can choose to read books 20% faster, choose to lv up faster in whatever the book was about or speech checks that have something to do with this book are 50% more effective

Well I was going to say as a single guy a list of single girls next to me and an indication of how attracted to me they were, but then I could see a whole lot of problems once I was no longer single and the question clearly says "Always" want displayed. So I'd say pokemons spawning for pokemon go and leave it at that.

A HP bar that displays how much damage I actually took e.g. when banging my toe on furniture or an when ice plate slides down from a 5-story high building and hits my head again. Could be interesting to know how close to death I've already been
A map with fast travel options for locations I frequent. I wouldn't teleport, it would be more like an autopilot taking over, and just taking the fastest route there. It would probably stop if someone starts talking to me though, or I get a call/text.
Maybe also a skip function if the conversation is really boring, which again will put the autopilot on. Then it would wake me once it's over with a general summary of what we talked about.
I just realized the autopilot concept really isn't relevant to "What would your HUD display?", but I've put way too much effort into this, so fuck it.

Hints on what to do when im stuck.

Definitely an indepth health log so I know my salt intake, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, what vitamins I'm lacking in, whether something I'm about to consume is going to trigger my bowels, how fit I am etc. All colour coded and easy to brake down too. Obviously this would always have the basics on show so my view isn't clogged, but would be expandable for the details - like certain maps in games so you can zoom view it at the expense of everything else on the screen.
A little stats bar with how the people are feeling about you at the moment. Not what they're thinking, because that might be too much to handle, but like disgust/anger/horny/happiness, ect and what percent.
Kind of like on Skyrim when it shows you a threat nearby it would be cool to have a sort of map to show you which people are more dangerous than others, for example if you were walking to school and then you can see on the map the big red circle coming closer then you can try to find a way out. Or you could find out if your dad actually is a mass murderer. Just something like that.
On top of this, possibly a thought checker. Say, if you felt intimidated or scared and you had thoughts going through your head about what to do, you'd get a visual tick or cross next to the thought. Maybe though, instead of this, arrows to show safe places to go to or people to get help from.
Actually i read them the problem is to know if a woman is too crazy takes time. I met a girl who seemed for the longest time to be just the right amount of crazy till she had a meltdown and then it was like a bad movie. Unfortunately she wasnt prepared for a guy with my crazy ass background.
I would love to have a sort of social HUD of how each person truly thinks of you and how certain decisions have affected their opinion on you. You could see the things that you do that annoy people the most and what they like about you. Also a little % symbol beside each of there name showing from 1-100 how attractive they think you are. Honestly if I had this life would be so much easier you could see if your an asshole or not. Here's a list of cool features I think it should have
โขFavourite memories- allowing you to know the persons fav memories of you good and bad. Like your friend Mark had a lot of fun chugging beer at the pub so that's a good memory that would be displayed. A bad memory would come up with the emotions the memory makes them feel. Every memory would have a scale of 1-10 on how much they think about it and how much it meant to them.
โขInterest- to make conversation flow easier (especially with a female) you could view the persons likes,dislikes and interests so you could relate to them and make the conversation one they'd like
โขMood- the mood of a person can greatly change how a conversation will go. Sometimes people are happy and want to talk to you for hours, other days they need to be left alone. A emoticon face displaying this would be easier to read then a persons actions. A happy face would mean their happy (obviously) a red anger face means there mad and a sad face means there sad (not complicated)
โขAnother cool feature which I'm not savvy enough to come up with a name for would be seeing how your life has impacted there's. I always wonder what my friends/family would be like if I was never born. Maybe your mother got a better sense of humour from your sarcastic nature and maybe your buddy Tom looks at the world differently because you introduced him into the horrors of the world.
โขAnother small feature I think would be cool is a bar that shows how much that person thinks of you. Maybe some people in your life have you on there mind 24/7 and you have no clue.
That's all I could think of atm, any comments adding to it would be awesome!
-side note, I don't think this would be the most practical as if everyone had this it would defeat the purpose but think of the opportunitys if you had this
My hud would give me the exact dialogue or actions I needed to say/do to get my desired result/get out of trouble, display names on command, instant diagnosis for any pain or physical issue and the remedy for it, list any STDs a possible sexual partner has, lists illegal things I can do for personal gain without getting caught and gps to the locations, location of the nearest weapon, and radar for hostiles, authority figures, and people I'm looking for.
Essentially a who/what/when/where/how to for literally anything in perfect detail, and harm avoidance.
Run for president, say and do all the right things, go on a crime spree, hook up with anyone safely, avoid assassination, steal expensive things without getting caught. achieve world peace, develop free energy, accelerate space travel, the possibilities are endless.
Edit: I've noticed this kinda borders on probability manipulation.

A timer counting down to when I will actually pass out from being awake to long.
Here's an odd thought, though (not answer). The whole idea is that having your own irl HUD gives you a manipulative advantage (dialogue choices, etc). So what happens if everybody has one?
You see someone and it will tell you how much bullshit you would have to deal from them before you had enough. Perfect in identifying/avoiding SJW's, liberals, and their handlers.

Took them 2 days to take mine out, then two weeks in hospital. You know I was over a 3 (the second week was a retry because I failed the objective of "Beat septicaemia before it kills you." I guess I loaded from checkpoint).
I saw a pain scale 10 there too. Some poor guy had an issue with his gentleman vegetables, screaming to have them chopped out at 2am because of the pain. That was a 10.

I've had searing testicular pain to the point I wanted to ball up and cry, and don't get me wrong I have serious empathy for that guy, but you wanna know the worst pain I've ever experienced? And the worst pain I sincerely believe is possible? Tooth pain.
When I was a freshman in high school I got a rare infection in my tooth that started attacking the nerve. Now apparently I didn't notice I had the infection for quite a while because all the pain arrived in a single day. Since the waste gasses from the bacteria couldn't get out of the tooth they just sat there building up pressure, eventually causing me mild discomfort for a day which I passed off as nothing. And then, in the middle of the night I woke up screaming in pain and begging my parents to just pull my tooth out all together. You know what they told me? "It can't hurt that bad go back to sleep we'll check on it in the morning." They gave me Ibuprofen and went back to bed. Well I didn't fucking sleep I just laid there for hours silently sobbing at the amount of pain I was in. Next day I tell my mom that it still hurts enough that I'm ready to pull it out of my skull and she takes me to the dentist who drills a hole in my tooth to relieve the pressure and prescribes me opiates for the pain
I will never forget the 6 hours that I laid in bed with minimal painkillers (that didn't help anyway) every second making a wish that I would die
Edit: Just to clarify the type of pain we're talking about here. My tooth felt like it was about to explode, combined with the feeling of someone slowly and tortuously twisting and pulling my tooth out of my head with pair of hot pliers with needlepoints on the clamps after he had already bashed my face in with a hammer

I can only speak of hospitals in the US, the South East specifically but I had just this happen.
I went to bed with a moderate toothache, I had tried the gels, the cream, some oil of cloves...
Woke up around midnight, felt like someone had punched the side of my face, the pain was inescapable. I tried more oil of cloves (that ended up burning my tongue for 3 weeks I tried putting so much on) to no avail.
I took a Lortab (Hydrocodone) I had for emergencies. It took the edge off but I literally punched two holes in the wall. Called my mum to drive me to the ER.
Got there and they saw me immediately. They have no dentists on staff I am told and the best they can do is numb me up to get me through to being able to see a dentist. At this point I just agreed to whatever they said without really listening, just stop the fucking pain please!
He tried to give me a shot, it was a back molar and he was unable to reach it, so he said I would have to opt for maximum dose ibuprofen at 800mg a shot, got it by IV. Also gave me a hit of morphine which did nothing.
Then he decided to try something else, the pain had driven my blood pressure up to 300, he gave me a strong dose of blood pressure meds. And that actually began reducing the pain. I don't know if the lower pressure finally let the medication work or the pressure alone was causing it.
He gave me some antibiotics to speed my way to a dentist and released me. I was able to go home and sleep despite it still throbbing it was no longer torture. I managed to get a dental loan (which I will be paying off the next nine years) to cover three extractions including a wisdom tooth).
I've been mostly pain free since then but worry because he told me another tooth was well past the point of recovery and was a time bomb, and all this week it has been going "doot doot doot, I'm here, hi!"...

I used CareCredit, they ask for the estimated costs up front before considering the loan. Whatever you answer they will offer less coverage so inflate the estimate a bit. I asked for $1200 and got $900. There was also another plan being promoted by a local dental office but I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it. Googing for "dental loan" without the quotes should get you some other possibilities. In any case good luck.

My husband had terrible tooth pain, apparently an abscess bad enough that we finally just took him to the ER in the middle of the night. They prescribed him painkillers (very basic ones, didn't do better than the Advil) and an antibiotic for the infection. And then told him to go to the dentist.

I've done it. They give you pain killers and they'll pump antibiotics straight into your bloodstream if they have to. Then they tell you to go to the dentist ASAP, who will give you more antibiotics and painkillers until they are able to pull the tooth/do whatever to solve the issue.

I once had a tooth ache during a manic episode. The tooth pain made a feedback loop with the mania. It was night, I could not get into see a dentist so went to the hospital. They told me they could not help unless it was to fix the damage of a broken tooth. So I got a pair of pliers from my car shattered the tooth in front of the triage nurse and started laughing screaming at the same time, my hands and mouth covered in blood because I had torn my gum. Then while I was holding my shattered tooth and a pair of pliers I finally blacked out. Pain mixed with mental illness is a hurricane.

Atypical bipolar. Kinda a catch all for people who suffer mania and depression but without any other clear symptoms. Pain seems to trigger manic episodes, which stops me from coping with the pain, which makes the pain worse and then the brain goes fucking primal. doctors still not sure why.

Not OP, but I lost a filling and the pain from the exposed nerve was excruciating. My uncle had a toothache so bad he threatened to murder his dentist if he didn't come in and pull his tooth. Teeth pain fucking sucks. I'd rather get kicked in the balls every 5 minutes than deal with an hour of tooth pain.

I wouldn't wish a toothache on my worst enemy. It was worse than childbirth (which I did naturally, on purpose). At the peak of my pain, I couldn't even really tell where the pain was coming from anymore, because my whole head was throbbing. Ibuprofen hardly touched it.
I used to fear root canals, but I loved mine because it meant sweet, sweet relief!
grrfunkel ยท 33 points ยท Posted at 05:41:11 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Fun fact: Never knew what a root canal was and when the doctor described it to me as literally drilling out the root of your tooth nerves and all I really thought about not doing it until he reminded me that the infection killed the nerve so I would feel literally nothing. Was kinda scary when they got the drill stuck in my tooth though. "Oh no this happens all the time" doesn't help a 14 year old boy with a large piece of dental equipment hanging out of his face
P.S. Another funny thing is when they tested to see if the nerve was dead they pulled out a gun with a piece of wire sticking out the end and said I would feel "something" if the nerve was alive, and to raise my hand if I felt "something" so they tested the infected tooth and I didn't feel a thing I didn't even know they had tested it or even started the test. Then they tested the tooth next to it, and as soon as the fucker pressed that button my hand shot up like a fucking rocket. It wasn't "something" it was what felt like 10,000,000 volts coming out the end of what I now believe to be one of those static guns they use to test electronics
Ameradian ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 05:53:12 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, my nerve wasn't dead yet, so they had to numb me at two separate points during the procedure. Initial numbing just so they could starting drilling into my tooth. And then, once the nerve was exposed, they had to numb the nerve. Those 10,000,000 volts you felt in your good tooth was what I felt on my bad tooth. A needle directly to the nerve HURT. My consolation was that they warned me about it first so I wasn't surprised, and that the dental hygienist rubbed my shoulder and spoke in low soothing tones (kind of comparable to comforting a child). But even that part was fairly quick, and thankfully I'm not afraid of needles.

My worst pain was an earache. It felt like someone was ramming a cheese grater into my eardrum. So not only was it sharp and grating but it was also throbbing and being rammed by pressure. I wanted to die. I called an ambulance for the first time in my life (they are free here) (i didn't call one for a possible miscarriage, asthma attack or severe eczema outbreak)

I used to take ibuprofen a lot when I was little (like half a pill probably? I was a skinny kid) because I'd get severe growing pains in my legs. Think low-key Charlie horse extended over hours if I didn't take any painkillers on a good day. On a bad day it meant crying at I tried to lay as still as possible with my legs stretched out. It mostly helped with that. It wouldn't always get rid of the pain completely, but there'd be significant improvement.

800 MG (4 standard pills) of ibuprofen taken the second I started to feel a little crampy was how I managed my horrible menstrual pain for years. If I waited until it started to hurt it was too late.
I say "managed" because it didn't stop the pain, just dulled it to where I could function.

Sounds a lot like ear pain.
The last major infection I got I sat there convincing myself that I could wait the 3 hours for the clinic to open rather than stabbing my own ear drum with a straightened out paper clip to relieve the pressure. I barely made it. That feeling was insane.

had a to get a root canal do to a tooth injury that caused to root to become infected through a crack caused by biting down on an expected piece of pointed metal in food.
Initial injury was fine. Then about a month later. Incredible pain started, but I had to wait a week for the appt, so everyday that week I was high off my ass on dayquil. Drank waaaay to much of the stuff, but it was the only thing I found to make being awake bearable. And Nyquil put my ass to bed well enough to get some sleep.

I agree. I have a high pain tolerance and had a tooth infection over new years last year. I was sobbing in pain while on more T3s than I should have been. Even once I was on morphine and antibiotics I could still feel the pain, it just wasn't "My entire face from my chin to my eye is made of more pain than I've ever experienced."

Similar story. I broke my leg real bad. Compound fractures in both tibia and fibula. So the first aid people pit a plaster on it and my surgery was scheduled for the next day. However, at night I developed something called compartment syndrome where the muscles in my broken leg bulged up to 3 times their original size. But my leg was in a plaster. So lo and behold, misery time. I kept begging the doctor to give me more painkillers but nothing worked and in the end I was just so relieved to be taken to the OT. Most painful 6 hours of my life.

I hope my kids never go through that- one because that sounds shitty, but two because I don't think they could communicate it very well and I would do the same thing your parents did. My seven year old will scream bloody murder and sob because she stubbed her toe. I have to talk her down sometimes so I can asses injuries. She broke her finger, and after I talked her down, was calm as heck. I really can't tell with her if something is serious or not. I only took her to urgent care because when asked if she would get a shot to help the pain she said she would. Shots are terrifying to her.
My other daughter is autistic and has a high pain tolerance. She will wake up in the middle of the night screaming with no explanation- we think nightmares- but she can also get a 2nd degree burn and shrug it off.
I feel sorry for little you, but I also feel bad for your parents. They had to feel pretty guilty later when they learned you weren't over-reacting.

Don't worry as long as you do the best you can your kids will love you for everything you do. My parent's were in a similar situation, one autistic son, and me, who wanted attention when I was younger because I didn't understand how serious my brother's disorder was and I felt neglected. So when something serious happened with me it was a bit like crying wolf (my parents still don't believe me that I'm allergic to apples, tree nuts, pears, plums, etc.).
But still, they were there for me when it really mattered and when I really needed them they offered up everything for me. They weren't always the best parents and they have some strong convictions that I very much disagree with but they did the best they could and I turned out a lot better than I could've. Keep doing what you do and your kids will turn out alright even if you make a few mistakes along the way

Thank you for that- I mean it.
It's also nice to see that you have such an understanding view of your parents. This autism thing really is parenting on hard mode. I'm constantly trying to make it up to my "normal" kiddos. Seven year old really doesn't get it yet. When would you say the light went on for you?
grrfunkel ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 19:56:39 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Honestly it took a long time and a more mature adult perspective to really understand how hard they worked for my brother and me. I honestly didn't start really understanding and respecting my parents dedication until after I got out of high school and into college.
But never let that deter you, your autistic daughter is going to need your love and support for a very long time so even when you feel defeated remember what your children mean to you and in the end it will all work out.

The worst pain I ever experienced was having my knee separate completely (the end of the femur rolling forward over the top of the tibia) tearing many things in addition to the already torn ACL. I was in the middle of suplexing a heavyweight during a wrestling match and my knee just gave out. Hit the floor screaming in pain. But I can't imagine how painful that tooth would have been.

Damn. That sounds bloody awful. Recently I had a different mouth related ordeal. Had a viral infection that cause my mouth to fill up with ulcers. Covered my gums, my tongue, even parts of my throat. For almost a week it was torture to eat, drink, talk, swallow, even just sitting around my mouth was a constant source of pain. And I had to keep up on fluids and calories because the viral infection was still putting me through the normal symptoms of the flu.
Dont know if I've ever felt that uncomfortable before for such a long time. Ended up going to the hospital when it persisted (was worried it might be something serious but was told it was likely viral) and they prescribed me a numbing mouthwash, something I wish my doctor had prescribed me a week prior.
Mouth pain definitely sucks a lot.

I wish parents wouldn't dismiss stuff like this and not take their kid's opinions as actual opinions and as things to be considered instead of dismissing them. This happened to me as well except the situation was much less painful, as I had a cracked/ sprained wrist and didn't get a splint for 2-4 days as both of the parents (one of which is a doctor which specializes in internal injury such as mine) told me the pain couldn't be to bad and waited until after our schools promotion and waited until after the associated celebrations, at about 12am to buy me a pair of athletes wrist supports.(notice - not an actual splint)

I think any pain that deals with a nerve is probably the worst pain possible. I've had a mirena IUD inserted with only Ibuprofen. That involves dilating your cervix... like in childbirth. Just not nearly as far as childbirth. However, nothing has hit me as bad as sciatica. I have a pinched nerve in my back and sometimes it's so bad I just want to die. I tell my SO, "Just kill me, please. I can't live life like this anyway." Sometimes he has to help me put on my pants, shoes, and socks because bending over leads to blinding, sharp pain. There are days that get so bad I just cry and cry because it hurts to walk, sit, lay down... Basically anything I do is painful. Sometimes when I'm sleeping and end up in the wrong position it will send this shooting, sharp pain down my left thigh and I'll wake up screaming... I used to think I had a high tolerance for pain. I was wrong.

Not tooth pain, but ear pain was my experience. Same problem, mild discomfort one day searing pain that night in the middle of the night. I had an ear infection that was building up pressure behind my eardrum. Woke up Midway through the night in pain and the only thing I could think of doing was jamming a pencil in it to see if I could make it stop. At that point I decided to wake up my wife and tell her I needed to go to the hospital which she took very seriously because I don't even like to go see a doctor.

Ice/cold water helped mine. The coolness of the water basically reduced the pressure of the gases building inside my tooth and i had virtually no pain until the water warmed up. Worst 24 hours of my life.

Nope. Codeine doesn't touch it. Valium helps a bit to relax during an attack. Apparently a drink of apple juice with Apple cider vinegar helps, but I find it hit-and-miss. Getting my gallbladder removed as soon as I find the time.

I compare all my pain to jamming your toe against a bedpost/wall corner.
Before that would be like an 8/10 for me.
Last November I had the worst pain of my life in my chest, felt like I was having a heart attack. At that point, jamming your toe against a bedpost/corner became a 4/10 in pain, and that new chest pain I got was a 8/10.
It would literally stop me from moving and I had to lie down on the floor no matter what I was doing since it felt like someone was grabbing my chest bones/ribs and squeezing really fucking hard. The problem was that I would never know how long the "attack" would go on for, sometimes 15 minutes, sometimes 2 hours. It would just come and go randomly 5-10 times a day.
Diagnosed with costochondritis after 2-3 doctor visits (don't know why I can't remember how many exactly): http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/costochondritis/basics/definition/con-20024454

To be honest, my appendicitis felt like bad gas and I tried to sleep it off. When that didn't work, I tried to walk to A&E. When that didn't work, I hopped in a taxi. When I got there, I started throwing up and they got the hint. Appendicitis usually presents as a pain in the lower right part of the abdomen I believe (as that's where it is). If it's anything else, i can't help friend, but I'd see a doctor!

I don't even want to think about a 10. I had an ovarian cyst rupture a few years ago, and I'd call that an 8 at its worst. Then the first 24 hours after my endo surgery was up there too.

We I was 10, I was sick for a week... After that week my mom took me to the doctor who admitted me to the hospital for possible appendicitis.
I was in there a week and the doctors were deciding if I had to have it out or not, I remember one saying "if you are no better by tomorrow, than we have to take it out."
I got better the next day, enough that they put off surgery. I was on an IV the entire time, so no idea what drugs they gave me.
Is it possible to recover from appendicitis? Or did I just have someone else going on?
Klausenberg ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:22:24 on August 8, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I think you can, it's just an infection after all. Unless it goes necrotic and/or doesn't respond to antibiotics, there's no need to take it out really.

As far as I know, the 1 to 10 scale is more of a way to determine if the pain is changing. People have different tolerances for pain, so the number itself doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Kidney stones.
Hurt so fucking bad I forgot how to write my own name when being admitted to the ER. I'd never had them before and thought I was having total renal failure or something crazy. Close tie to my first Diverticulitis attack on the 1-10 scale

I had one of these fuckers yesterday!
Actually, it's still in there but they fitted a stent to save the kidney until they can get it with a laser.
Hand on heart, if someone had offered to kill me to put me out of my misery I would have seriously considered it.
At its worst I was rocking back and forth on all fours on the bed in a&e, scream sobbing and vomiting blood (from all the meds taken on an empty stomach). Even then I told the nurse it was probably a 7 and she just looked at me and went 'that looks more like a 10. I'm getting you some morphine'.
I've been through a natural childbirth (with a bad tear) and a massive dental abscess that left me wanting to claw my own face off but neither compares to kidney stones.
0/10 would not recommend.

Yes! I had the same thing. The pain from my appendicitis was at most a "3", and it had partially ruptured when they removed it.
I don't know how lucky I am that despite my insistence I wasn't in that much pain they knew what was wrong with me.

Right? My pain was all on the opposite side of my abdomen than where you normally feel it for appendicitis too so I was convinced it wasn't that. Thankfully, trained medical professionals know better than to listen to my unqualified diagnosis and decided to fix me properly.

Same exact shit basically. About a year ago I had appendicitis and just missed a few days of school waiting for it to get better.

I also went to the doctor just because something felt off about it. I had experienced very similar pain a few months earlier due to gas (the joys of bulking) and was convinced that this time it would be the same. But once I got a bit of a fever I was thinking stomach bug. Basically I just wanted reassurance that it's nothing serious.

FYI it didn't "burst while they were removing it" like it's a balloon under pressure; we grab it and push and pull on it so if it's all inflamed it will rupture secondary to that.

I farted and felt better, so I got super freaked out because I thought I made her drive me to the hospital at 4 am over gas. I pretended I still felt pain and it eventually actually did come back. Docs told me I was hours from my appendix bursting at the most by the time I was under the knife.

Had mine taken out last June. It was a textbook presentation though. General stomach pain and nausea that migrated and became intense pain in the lower right abdomen. It was only about 7 hours between the first sign and when I was being driven to the ER and crying at every bump in the road.

I had an appendectomy in January and it really surprised me how easy it could be to misinterpret that pain. If you don't know that a stomach cramp on the right side isn't a stomach cramp, there isn't much else to go on. My brother had just gone through appendicitis the previous March, and I'm a bit of a hypochondriac anyway, so I was paying close attention to it, but most people aren't like that.

Well in my case the pain wasn't on the right side. Even when pressing down on it I'd hardly feel a thing right up until a few hours before surgery. The pain was mostly in my upper abdomen and the left side of my lower back.

Really? Mine started in the morning one day when I woke up. Thought it was a stomach ache, but it kept getting worse and it just felt "off". By lunch time I knew I needed to go to the doctor and by about 2 or 3 I had a good idea what it was. I got my parents to drive me to the ER around 5 and was in the OR a few hours later. I'd have rated mine a 1 out of 10 in the morning, and a 7 or 8 shortly before they put me.under.

The body actually has amazing diagnostic tools, you just don't know what they are.
Every doctor, nurse, paramedic, etc. can assess you just as much as you can (unless you are unconcious or altered) based off many simple things like skin signs, how slow or fast your heart is beating, how slow or fast you are breathing, knowing your medical history, etc. and have a pretty good idea what's going on.
In regards to your appendicitis, there are many simple maneuvers one could do to isolate it as a cause and a kind of pain that is specifically associated with appendicitis. Three simple "tests" (not including advanced tests such as a blood test) would be to cough, jump on one foot, or whether or not you have an appetite. If you cough or jump and land with pain, it increases your likelihood of having it. Rebound pain is also a major indicator.

My gallstones were undiagnosed for 2 years. They put it down as an anxiety attack, as I have that but it wasn't until I was hunched over barely able to breath in unbelievable agony that I was sent to the hospital and had my gallbladder removed.
They said its hard to tell because there aren't as many pain receptors in that area, so it could've been anything.

I can't remember if they did any or not, this was awhile ago now, but if they did they were pretty lazy. Very frustrating, because it'd be off and on for awhile. Could be every morning for a few weeks, and then not happen again for a month or two.

One day a pain started in my right lower abdomen and I grew concerned that it was appendicitis. Went to the hospital later that and the doctor did tests to see if that is what it was. They saw nothing on the scan, probably due to my weight, but said all other tests pointed positively to appendicitis so they got me into the OR. Turns out my appendix was inflamed but on top of that, I had ovarian cysts.

If you invest enough points into the medicine skill tree you start getting this for other people. The more experienced you get, you can literally work out what most people have wrong with them from the end of the bed. Also for any other doctors out there, how about automatically sizing people's veins for which canula will fit?

I have a good friend who has a brain tumor the size of a gulf ball deep inside his brain. They discovered it by accident six years ago after a bike crash (he's in his mid-thirties now). Because it is so deep inside his brain a biopsy or operation is too risky and the doctors won't do anything about it until he starts developing symptoms. Till now the tumor has remained pretty much stable (he has check-ups every six months) yet he knows he has a ticking time bomb inside his skull. The only thing the discovery seems to have given him so far is a lot of anxiety.

Not being concerned how you look can definitely be an improvement in dancing ability. I'd be shocked if you don't have friends that if they had to dance they just kind of stand there awkwardly. But given some alcohol they loosen up and move more freely.

Not for me, when I go clubbing I set out to get drunk and I've been told unsarcastically by people I'd just met that I was a good dancer (I genuinely thought people were being sarcastic the first couple times anyone mentioned my dancing because I'd never done any kind of dancing before I started clubbing), but when I'm sober, I just can't get into it at all.

I have to agree with the drinking = better dancing thing, but only because I've got blown out ankles and an equally screwed knee. (No arrow) I move a hell of a lot better when I can't feel pain. I regret it the next day but being asked to dance, and being able to deliver is a great freakin' feeling.

Drinking is a progress bar that has indicators for things like "dancing well" and "liquid courage" but later things like "barfing everywhere" and "going home with a 80 year old woman with a potbelly." The most requested update is a marker for "memory loss"

He's had a wearable computer of some form or another on his person since 1993, excluding showers and sleeping (or at least those are the two exceptions he explicitly mentions).
The podcast Invisibilia did an episode on him that is available here. Relevant portion starts at 6:15.

Semi-related, if you haven't already you should REALLY check out Black Mirror, as a few episodes deal with similar concepts. Watch The Entire History of You in season 1, followed by the holiday season special White Christmas. It's on Netflix. The episodes are all independent of eachother so skipping straight to these ones is fine. Don't read up on anything first, you'll ruin it for yourself.

I'm more likely to say "buddy", "man", "dude" (regardless of gender) than call them by their name. Mostly I try to avoid it altogether.

His computer would identify the person and bring up details from their last conversation. He was able to have more meaningful conversations because he could store and recall so much more data.

Trick I learned, if that happens, just turn to your companion and say something like, "Oh, this is {companion name}." They then always say their name to your companion. Sometimes they catch on but no one ever says anything and you avoid the super awkward pause.

When introducing people you know well to people you don't, try to have a drink or something to eat on hand. Try to get the unfamiliar people to come to you, and as they approach take a drink or a bite. Your companion will then have a chance to introduce themselves and you get a refresher in the names catagory.

This is Bob..." and point toward Bob all slow so then Bob being the gentlemen he is will usually extend his hand to the other person and she'll go hi Bob nice to meet you I'm Doloris and then Bob will be like, omg what an unusual name and then Doloris goes yeah most people think it's Dolores like the word "yes" but it's not it's Doloris like the word "is" and then Bob is usually like "oh yeah, heh heh" And then Doloris will say yeah it rhymes with clitoris and then yeah, that's pretty much how I do it when I introduce people.

Reminds me of the guy who had a brain tumor which prohibited him from retrieving memories, which meant he lost most of his short-term memory and all of his long term memory.
Then after a successful operation, his lost memories came flowing back to him because apparently they brain still stores everything. Only problem was that everything was in the wrong order, so his memory of his grand father dying came back before his memory of him even having a grand father. Which according to him made for a year of some really weird flashbacks.

The trick is that it goes from zero to "Oh my god it hurts" in a couple hours. I got mine when I was a little kid. I ate some plums from the back yard which weren't properly ripe yet, so it would make sense why my stomach wasn't feeling happy.

Be sure to take your 800 mg Ibuprofen with food to protect your stomach. This drug increases the chances of you getting a stomach bleed or "ulcer", and taking it with food is the best way to reduce that risk, I would say.

Mine burst about six hours after I first started feeling pain. It was the most painful experience of my life. Completely redefined my scale for pain. On a scale of 1-10, appendicitis right before it burst is a 10, after it burst was a 7, and a broken bone is a 2, with everything else being some decimal lower than 1.
It was crazy how much better I felt after it burst. Objectively, it was the second most painful thing I've ever experienced, but I remember sighing with relief because of how much better it was compared to before.

Sepsis is a (potentially fatal) reaction to an infection, not the infection itself. So in your case, if you had an infection in your blood (bacteremia), that would be the presumed causal factor for the sepsis (unless they found infection elsewhere in your body that might have triggered it).

FurTrader58 ยท 21 points ยท Posted at 03:06:00 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Happened to me.
One night I thought I had terrible gas. Sat on the toilet for a bit to no avail. Took some gas reliever thinking it'd help. Puked it up. After some time of this I wake up my mom, as now the pain is definitely not gas, and I couldn't possibly sleep. She calls the on call nurse and they tell us to come in.
Go to the ER, get painkillers and try to sleep while they wait to tell me what is next. This was through an IV, which for some reason the first nurse had the hardest time to put into my arm. My veins are pretty noticeable. So more pain, until the IV. They bring in this awful, disgusting fluid I'm supposed to drink (they added crystal light but I think that made it worse. It was a lemony hell) and they said "you have to drink all 3. Honestly this stuff tasted like it was more likely to kill me then whatever I had. After 2.5 cups of this stuff I tell the nurse that if I have anymore I'll lose it all. She says "well you really only need one, but 3 makes it easier. You're fine." To which I almost responded by throwing it at her. But I was tired and in moderate pain still.
They wheel me to the CT scan room, so the scan (the liquid was to "make my insides light up" in the scan). After a bit they come in and say it's appendicitis. A couple hours pass, go into the OR, next I know I'm in a room. Missed the whole day of school, got to eat some blended chicken noodle soup and frosties (basically a milkshake that Wendy's serves for those that don't know, the hospital one tasted identical) later on for dinner, and watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off with my dad that night. Was only there for a day, had a few days off school. All in all not the worst.
It didn't explode, so that was neat.

My local diagnostic center will let you bring your own beverage to mix or you get it straight up.

Yay insurance...at least I'm feeling slightly better these days...maybe it's nothing. I guess I'll find out when I die.

These days a diagnostic scan is more likely to be gastrografin, not barium at least in my parts of the world. We never use barium in a case where a perforation may be suspected (and it would be suspected in this case). You usually have to drink at least 30 ounces of it for a CT. They both taste like shit, though.
I used to hate walking into rooms with 3 large styrofoam cups of that shit, but I was at least nice and mixed that shit with straight juice (if the patient wasn't diabetic).

Pretty similar case for me. I was leaving the kitchen after eating a bedtime snack of a cheese stick and some imitation crab. I took a step and felt this weird gurgling sensation in my abdomen. I too thought it was gas at first or maybe something was wrong with that fake crab meat. I tried to go to sleep but the pressure was building up. I laid on my stomach thinking that'd help squeeze out the gas. Instead it just hurt like hell.
Luckily I was home visiting from college after the spring semester had ended. I woke my mom up and told her something was wrong. By the time she got up and dressed I was in a cold sweat on the floor. We rushed to the ER (it was a bit after midnight at this point) and the doctor there told me I was just having bowel spasms and that I could go home. But my mom is a nurse and she knew something was wrong so she wouldn't let them send me home without scanning me.
Thankfully I didn't have to drink anything. They just put that fluid in me with an IV. The results came back showing my appendix had already burst and they had to rush me into surgery. I'll never forget that ER doctor's face when he told me the results. He knew I would have died that night if I had listened to him and left. I only hope that he's learned from that experience.

I have eaten some weird things in my life, but that sounds absolutely horrible.
Blended chicken noodle soup doesn't sound like it's be that bad, it's just everything in the soup all at once. I was wrong. The texture pretty bad, and the flavor is the most bland. Overall just not enjoyable.
Also, you can't disrespect a frosty like that. It's just not something you can do and still call yourself a human.

I kind of think the cancer would be more of a three and appendicitis would be the 5.
5 being a "fix this now or you die" (eg: venomous snake bite, stroke etc.) And the 3 being "fix this because it will kill you eventually(probably pretty quickly)".
amanitus ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 06:25:04 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I think the point is "how bad is your current status." So appendicitis would ramp up and then become a 5 when the appendix ruptures. Same with cancer. As it metastasizes or does whatever horrible thing it does, it goes up to a five.
Personally, I'd rather my HUD just tell me my exact diagnosis and how serious it is. Maybe a little death clock with it too.

I had no pain when I went to bed, then I woke up and my sides hurt, and I had trouble walking. My mom said it was just indigestion and that I had to fart. So I shook my stomach all around. I then went 3 days before going to the doctors office, where a fucking intern told me it was nothing. I played 2 hockey games that day, then woke up the next morning legit unable to stand up at all. I went to the hospital and was told that if I had come in any later; even at midday, there was a strong chance I would die. My advice to you is that if you have an aching pain where your appendix is, go get that shit removed ASAP, it's not a joke.

Had a ruptured appendix and emergency surgery when I was 11. It was brutal, to the point I don't remember a lot of the pain because I blacked out a couple of times. All I remember is intense pain and throwing up uncontrollably. Then when I stopped throwing up I was still having dry heaves that left me doubled over. Do not recommend

My appendix burst whilst I was in the ER waiting for my name to be called for the pain I was already feeling but after the burst I felt alright and just went home. HUGE MISTAKE. Hours later, pain is 10x worse and I could barely move, was in the hospital for 11 days and had three surgeries for the sepsis. Still alive.

A lot of them probably are that way. In many cases the patient doesn't start to feel any pain until it is already inflamed. Even then the pain doesn't get bad enough to indicate something serious until it is very inflamed. Then too many people (myself included) wait until they are all but incapacitated to go in because they hate hospitals.

No lie that shit comes on quick. My best friend's appendix exploded at school back in the day. They had to open her up and vacuum out all the nasty / rotten / pus material from her body in the ER.

Can confirm. Doctors misdiagnosed my appendicitis as a stomach bug. A few days later it ruptured and I nearly died.
I was in urgent care for a while. Spent a good portion of my summer vacation in the hospital with tubes coming out of my stomach to drain the nasty pus buildup inside my body. Fun times.

I don't think many people call an ambulance for appendicitis because it's very hard to gauge what it is by yourself. Granted, I don't have any statistics on this.
Also, how would it be a conspiracy if you're in excruciating pain and they perform surgery and cure you?

VehaMeursault ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 11:26:32 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
No douchiness detected in the first comment, don't worry. How is that legal? In western Europe the lowest quality food is still high quality, unless the producer actually disobeys the law and scams people. It happened once, when a producer put horse meat in something that was supposed to not contain it. Still edible and healthy, though; just a lie.
Old_Grau ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 20:01:53 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
I'm no expert at all but the gist is that lawmakers are persuaded by lobbyists to allow or not allow certain food ingredients. most of the time the lawmakers tend to take the legal bribes from them and vote for or submit laws that they dont really understand. It's just our brand of corruption that is supposed to be countered by the free market which implies that if people didnt want it they wouldnt buy it. If you ask me, it's better corruption than you find in most of the world, though its still toxic as fuck.
edit: also the FDA does things I dont understand to counter this. But it doesnt seem to be very effective.
edit 2: because of what i meantioned before lots of wierd food dies and fillers are allowed in the food (think worse kebab meet). Also, American meat farms are pretty freaky situations and we feed a lot of wierd shit to the animals. Our fda isnt as good at protecting us as the EU's department for that.
p.s. I still eat Taco Bell.

I never understood that about your country: you have pharmacists telling doctors and patients that their medicine is the best; and now I learn of food-producers having a hand at forming the law to their wills.
What the actual fuck? The whole point of the law is that it's there for the good of the people. How the hell can a corporation (or anyone) influence this?

To be fair, it also goes from surgery to your body trying to commit suicide without your brain's consent. I think on a five start scale that's a fair stepping stone.
I think four would be a limb that is going to need amputation since that's pretty a permanent impairment until you get the awesome prosthetic add-on that ties into the HUD and then you get a new interface with all the sensory stats and I think I just invented a new way of cheating at the Olympics.

I've broken my pinky toe twice. Once from running it into a doorframe. And the other from stubbing it on a piano. That last time I was drunk and didn't notice it was broken till the morning after. Both times I couldn't walk properly for at least a month. That first time it happened was the most painful experience of my life thus far.

Appendicitis can kill you pretty easy tbh. If it ruptures you have a few hours.

theeberk ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 04:12:39 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Appendicitis is definitely three stars because it can kill you fairly rapidly, especially if the appendix ruptures, but it isn't that dangerous because it hurts so bad that everyone goes to the hospital when their appendix gets infected.
I would save four stars for stuff that can kill you very quickly, but you can be revived. This would be a fairly narrow category, but has issues such as MIs and serious trauma.
Five stars is the mother of all illnesses - one that will kill you in an instant with no hope of recovery. Take an abdominal aortic aneurysm - once that thing ruptures you will bleed out and die before anyone even knows you're ill.

The way pain is reported for internal damage is wonky as all hell.
Take heart attacks. The most common symptom is pain/discomfort in the left arm, but that pain can be pretty much anywhere from your navel to your nose, front to back.
That's assuming you even feel any pain/discomfort in the first place
ThatLaggyNoob ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 06:33:17 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
That's because pain is supposed to protect you against exterior threats. A couple generations ago a if a person knew they were having a heart attack they'd still be shit out of luck.

Given the amount of pain we have for some things that aren't serious, I would doubt whether the body has any idea how serious anything actually is. After all, isn't pain supposed to be our alarm system for when something is bad? So a lot of pain would be something really really bad that needs immediate attention. Except 99.9% of the time it's gas or a stubbed toe or a headache or cramps or something else that wasn't really alarming at all and you're like okay, I get it, if you could stop hurting now, that would be great.

I've been thinking the same thing for a few years now. I'll be able to hear the ceiling fan whirring in the next room but I sometimes can't understand what the person within arms reach is saying.

I have Auditory Processing Disorder and that describes it pretty well, actually.
I can pick out a song playing over the radio in a loud restaurant no problem, but have no idea what my dinner partners are saying. Tiny humming in the other room? On it. What my boyfriend says to me from across the couch? Who knows.

There are clinics that can test your hearing and they basically put you in a sound proof cabinet thing with head phones and play a bunch of frequencies, you press a button if you hear the sound and they can make basic diagnoses based off what you could hear.

It didn't sound like a hearing problem, but a processing problem. They can hear, it's just all garbled.

I have sensori-neural deafness. I can hear voices but the words themselves blur and make it hard to understand what's being said. It's caused by damage or mutations in the individual nerves that carry sound signals from the ear to the brain. Personally mine is genetic and my nerves grew in broken/missing, but damage can happen to cause the same thing.
It could also be a processing disorder but don't discount plain old deafness.
frawks24 ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 03:57:34 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
I have something call "background deafness" which is basically just everything sounds the same and it can be tested for like that.
But they also have similar tests for audio processing and audio memory.

I don't think there's much that can be done. I just be annoying and lean in really close so I can hopefully catch more of what they're saying that way.
Although mine isnt super severe, I think I mean I do have no basis for what normal hearing is, but there might be options if it's really bad.
Tauricide ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 12:45:15 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Actually There is. While they won't 'cure' Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), there are a few treatments that can significantly help. The two I would recommend are the Tomatis Method and the Forbrain. Both are similar, working I think on a theory concerning APD and bone conduction with hearing.
Tomatis basically involves wearing headphones with a bone conduction node at the top of your head while listening to music that continuously changes volume and such, retraining the brain to focus. Typically 2 hrs a day for 2 weeks, in 3 batches. It's bloody tiring but I actually found improvements with understanding people speech, focusing on conversations at parties, and not being so tired from everyone talking. Huge improvements in day to day stuff.
Forbrain is basically a microphone connected to bone conductive earphones. It's slower to see results but you can buy it yourself (Specialists hire out Tomatis - gets expensive) and can use it for longer.
I'm sure there are other options as well, it's just APD isn't well known so no one is talking about it. But it doesn't need to stay as bad as it is. (diagnosed 6 years ago)

It's weird, I can't hear people occasionally. I mean, for the most part, it's fine- but at times it's so bad I don't think it's possible that I've got working ears.
Yet I can hear a song on the radio, and with 85% accuracy on the first listen, get the lyrics right. And I'm already well on my way to memorizing it.
But I can't remember a damn thing anyone told me at work today.

APD is a controversial diagnosis these days. From what I recall from school it seems there's definitely something there, but the science isn't really ironed out and the tests are quite imprecise. I've never known or talked to someone with APD so I'd love to hear more about your experience. I'd be happy to share some articles I have about the controversy.

Mention this to your doctor/pharmacist, you might have excess/impacted cerumen (ear wax). That could explain why you have no trouble hearing the fan in the next room as it is more muted/bass than a conversation. (bass is less attenuated by it than treble. Just like when blocking your ears with your fingers.. Lower frequencies/vibrations will be easier to hear that higher frequencies)
Also, never put q-tips in there, seriously.

If you hang around loud spaces like busy bars for example you can lose hearing in the vocal/mid range. Making it easy to hear somesounds but voices can get lost. As someone that works in nightclubs for years i can hear most things fine still but struggle immensly to hear what the person talking to me is saying.

Alternative suggestion: get your ears checked out for wax if you're not an ardent cleaner of them. I have tinnitus anyway but when my ears were clogged enough to cause proper hearing loss it was a lot like that, and exacerbated the tinnitus. I only really noticed how bad that shit was when I moved into a house with no CRT displays, I can't pretend it's that any more.

Personally mine is genetic and my nerves grew in broken/missing, but damage can happen to cause the same thing.
Ask for a referral to an audiologist and they will be able to give you any needed tests and let you know about any therapies or equipment that might help. Even just knowing and understanding where your problem lies can make a huge difference so I highly encourage anyone who is worried about their hearing to have a test. It's really simple, takes under an hour and is totally non-invasive.

Wow that sounds pretty accurate, and my grandpa has complained about the same thing. I took an occupational hearing test a few years ago and was told I have excellent hearing (albeit, from an old man who said he wished his hearing was as good as mine).
RazTehWaz ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 17:20:09 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I've had the standard hearing tests (beeps and tones) and while I don't score brilliantly on them I score as having mild-to-moderate deafness but I function as someone with moderate-to-severe.
They had to wait until I was old enough to pick up some language skills and do a different type of test on me. I would sit in a silent room opposite someone who would read out a list of words (with a bit of paper or their hand covering their mouth to make sure I wasn't just lipreading), I had to repeat the words back to them and through that they can get an idea of what sounds you are missing by what words you get wrong.
For me I normally only get 2-3 right out of 20, until they take their hand away, then I get 20/20 as I'm a pro lipreader.

You don't hear every frequency at the same competency.
I took a hearing test and I can't hear at the frequency people talk either, but I can hear everything else just fine, especially the stuff everyone else fails at.

Ever had a hearing test done? It may surprise you how bad your hearing could be. I'm 26 and have nearly 50% hearing loss in both ears. I've been wearing hearing aids for over a year now and it still surprises me how bad my hearing was before (still is technically) and how well I can actually understand people now. If you have bad hearing it's like living in a bubble and a lot of people don't even realise this because why would their hearing be bad? This is how they've always perceived the world so they don't know better.
Hearing aids changed my life and I'm always game to spread the word.

Have had three surgeries on my left ear but due to my body healing badly there's not much they can do so I went for hearing aids.
You saying that people never seem to speak clearly or that you're not paying attention made me think of how I felt before my hearing issues were discovered. Like I said I doubt your situation is as serious as mine but just wanted to give a heads up :)

Oh no people do speak clearly to me -- just sometimes people aren't speaking loudly/clearly enough for me to be able to hear them (bearing in mind this was over the sound of cars or other background noise like in the classroom so... :P). Paying attention part is because background noise and then trying to do work (so not bothering to try processing their words, at least probably... Hopefully...)
I will consider a hearing test though (maybe not now, but I'll keep it in mind for later in life). Thanks for heads up!

Story of my life since I've lost part of my hearing due to some nerve thing. Double-edged sword, professionally, IMO. With a higher level person, I sound dumb and as though I wasn't paying attention.
With everyone else, it sounds condescending apparently because I'm asking them to repeat something. I always try to follow up with "Sorry, I missed that because of.." stupid excuses like static or someone talking over them. It does let people know when their ideas are dumb though. I usually catch onto the tail end of "OH I'm glad I talked it out because now it doesn't make sense."

My dad pulls that shit all the time. He gets upset when I point out he's mumbling and I can't hear him so I stopped being polite about it.
"Mumble, mumble, mumble huh!? Speak up!" normally gets a nasty look but then he enunciates properly.

Oh god this just reminded me of a super awkward memory.
When we were first moving into our house there was a bunch of paper work and there were always a few guys inspecting something to make sure it was all up to code.
One day 2 men came over to inspect the foundation and the 2nd one really had nothing to do so we were making small talk.
The guy had a really thick southern accent and it was hard to understand what he was saying at times. At some point the conversation switched to my dog and he began to tell a story about his dog, I couldnt understand a damn thing he said but I knew it was a dog story so I just sort of exhaled out my nose a bit and smiled when he finished telling his story.
Turns out the story he was telling was about how somebody fed his dog broken glass and it died a terrible painful death. I laughed at his dog dying.

I would happily take my HUD and give it to my GF for this exact reason. She says, "what?" after every single thing I say, no matter how loud, slow, and articulate I am. It's the most aggravating thing about her. Somewhere along her life she decided not to pay attention to someone talking and just ask, "what?" when they are done.
I've even experimented with it. Started the convo very loudly. Then when she asks, "what?" and I repeat it, I say it rush and at half the volume and she can hear me.

Imagine being forced into said "talk dimension" cutscene every time someone wanted to talk to you though, whether or not you actually wanted to talk to them.
On the other hand, having dialogue options - assuming they're the 3/New Vegas style ones where it shows everything you're going to say, rather than a two-word summary - would be pretty helpful, assuming the system works by giving you things you plausibly would have said anyway. Say a customer comes up and asks where a high-priced item is, and your experience tells you that they are totally a thief. Your dialogue options would then be, depending on your skill build of course:

I'm sitting right next to three Hispanic co workers who always dip into Spanish no matter where we are. We can be talked together about work and they'll just dip into another language where I can't follow. I'm positive 90% of the time it's nothing I care to hear.
But the number of times someone will say something and they'll giggle while someone looks at me makes me really want to know.

I'm a bit hard of hearing and I use closed captioning on everything I watch. I also sometimes mishear my girlfriend, so when she found out I use closed captioning on everything, she asked if I wished I could turn closed captioning on for her talking. It would be useful, mind you, but she said it out of frustration and so it was rather insulting, because she's long been aware that I have problems with my hearing.

Then all of a sudden "Survive the night" pops up on your screen and you're scrambling to get ahold of your inventory and figure out who or what is about to attack you, and how you can survive it.

Considering there's no soundtrack in real life (unless you have something playing music), can you imagine how freaky it would be?
You're holed up in your vacation home, scrambling to arm yourself in some fashion. It's dark outside, and way too quiet. You're checking inventory, and pausing to glance around occasionally and listen. But you don't know what's coming, or where it is.
That's the second most frightening part. Finally realizing what the threat is, and that you have to survive is obviously the worst part.

Dragon Age: Origins has something kinda like that. In DA:O, your hub world is your campsite, and you just travel there whenever you need/want to. Once you complete enough main quests, the next time you go there you get ambushed by the enemy. Unfortunately it's not a very difficult fight and it only happens once, but...it's pretty surprising.

"Oh hey we've got a great competitive shooter franchise that everyone loves that's about even starting playing field, precise aim, and general lack of randomness. How about we make it so that everyone starts with a different abilities, make it so that any mid to long range firefight becomes completely random even with precision weapons, and also completely neuter the entirety of competitive scene. Yeah that'll be great for the last halo game in the series."
Reach's multiplayer was terrible compared to most other halo games. As a standalone game maybe I wouldn't look at it as bad, but it made some of the most retarded design decisions ever when it came to multiplayer. (Also why the hell did they take away so many fan favorite custom games options, like alpha zombie and nade regen?)

What? Armor lock alone ruined the game. Let's not even talk about the Jetpack or invis.
Tbh, if they'd have kept the BR, or at least not implemented the foolish reticle bloom, and ditched AAs from jump, it would probably still be the major Halo game being played.

By far the best ending to any FPS I've ever played. Making the ending of a prequel is hard: fans know what happen, everything is sort of on the rail of destiny. There's something about being in Noble 6's position in the end though, really struck me. I'm not even that big a fan of the series, but finishing that campaign in college is something that'll always stick with me.

One of the coolest things about Chrono Cross was the save points. The one in your hometown has a line in front of it.
An NPC tells you that if you're ever unsure about what to do, you should use it, and it will remind you what you were doing (in case you took a break from the game).
It's revealed later on that a time-travelling AI is in charge of the messages every person receives. It's been giving the entire region quest objectives to manipulate people into creating the right conditions for its plans to succeed.
So who's deciding what's a quest, and what I should be ignoring?

Get checked for sleep apnea if you haven't already. You may not have any of the risk factors but still have it. I've been using methylphenidate to keep myself going a lot during the day and found out recently I had sleep apnea. Hoping that with treatment, I won't constantly feel exhausted all the time (and therefore need stimulants less)
Evilbluecheeze ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 05:26:05 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I got a sleep study done a few years ago and pretty much all the report said was "does not have sleep apnea". Like, well thanks, but what about the, like, 14 times I woke up while I was there?
It's one of those things I've been meaning to go back and look more into, but I'm kind of afraid of the answer, and I know what (at least) half of the answer is going to be anyway, and my sleep issues aren't like, life ruiningly terrible, just bad enough to occasionally ruin days/make me cry out of frustration a couple times a month/waste a dozen or so hours a week in bed. The more mild medical issues can be such a pain to diagnose.
silent_thinker ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:16:07 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Well if you have any sort of allergies or nasal congestion (stuff blocking up your nose), that can make it way worse I think. Basically while I was living in California, it was difficult and I was trying to figure it out, but not as a priority - then I moved to Washington, DC and my allergies and fatigue got worse and I have had to address it because I was getting to the point where it was becoming impossible to function.
The diagnosis phase is a massive pain in the ass. Before/just after the sleep study, I got a ton of blood tests to rule things out, saw multiple types of doctors, had appointment after appointment - no fun at all. Especially in the U.S., if you go out of network of your insurance company, it cost you an arm and a leg, and even in network you still have copayments. I can see why that unless it gets to the point where it becomes debilitating, people usually don't want to really pursue it (especially when you likely have a full time job and are already exhausted in general).
If you have allergies or nasal congestion, it may help to address that. You can try sleeping slightly elevated too. It sucks massively wanting to be able to do things but having no energy to do them (whether they are things you want to do or need to do). I just had surgery on my nose to hopefully make it easier to breathe and maybe use a PAP machine, but still in the process. Hoping it is worth it in the end. Good luck to you eventually trying to figure it out. It can be pretty frustrating looking up on Google all the possible reasons to "Why am I so tired all the time?"
Evilbluecheeze ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:37:06 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I do have a bit of seasonal allergy related issues, but just taking Meds when that comes up is typically enough to deal with them, I'm am pretty confident that my sleep issues aren't breathing/snoring related.
And yeah, I already spent years and years going doctor to doctor to Doctor being told I was imaging or faking symptoms and other annoying bullshit and that has really put me off getting the rest of my issues figured out (I did get that issue diagnosed eventually, and the treatment process sucked ass as well)
The issue is also that it's likely that the reason I can't sleep is because I have a pain condition, and since I can't cure the pain condition I may just be SOL, I've already tried a ton of sleep aids and such, none of them worked out. Plus I know if I went to a doctor now they'd recommend better sleep hygiene, which I know I need to work on, so it's one of those things where until I can say I've put in the effort to stick to all the annoying sleep hygiene habits for a while and still have been unable to sleep well, why bother even going in to see a doctor at all?
So for now I've just been attempting to improve my health and life with things like eating enough food for a normal person every day, sleeping and waking up in something mildly resembling a schedule, actually exercising (that last one hasn't been going so well). I'm hoping to eventually stick to it all long enough to see improvement in some facet of my life, even if it's not sleep.

Sadly, not yet. The most recent studies (2014) show that there seems to be an inflammation in the brain, and these last months I've been going to the clinic of the doctor who discovered it. I feel like I'm in good hands.
I'm not a "worst case scenario", though. However, when I get tired (everything makes me tired, so I have to budget both work and fun), I struggle with speech and comprehension, can't stand still for more than a few minutes, and sometimes end up on the floor unable to get up. It's getting better, but this is how it is for me after over 7 years.
I want a battery in my HUD to budget my energy better!

If this is what it sounds like, I may have a less severe form of this. If I don't force myself out of bed I can sleep ~20h a day in 4-6h spurts, awake an hour at a time. It started while I was on Prestiq and I was prescribed Vyvanse to combat what they said was a side effect. I've gotten off Prestiq now (holy shit they weren't kidding when they said it is worse withdrawal than heroin, Google it) and the fatigue hasn't gone away. :( do you have any advice on mitigating it at all?

I got it from a particularly rough round of mononucleosis, so I'm not entirely sure about your case. I'm really sad to hear you're struggling, though. I have some general advice for you that you could try, though, and for whomever else might be wondering about the same.
Once you get some surplus in your everyday life, you'll find you suddenly have more and more energy to spare over time. I'm not saying don't be active - walking barely tires me out in any way (because I don't use my head), and helps in many ways.
Good luck. And if you have any more questions, fire away.
ZephyrWarrior ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 10:44:32 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I actually had mono a little under two years ago as well, and oddly enough your triggers so to speak match up with what I do regularly (programming, strategy games, etc.) I'll try going for walks more if I can, maybe the sunlight might help as well. I'll shoot you a PM if I have anything else in the future. Thanks. :)
terozen ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 10:54:41 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Really! Then it might indeed be similar... I also spent more time in bed than outside of it in my first couple years during/after mono. But it came back during a bout of depression last year, so I guess it's hard to say for sure.
I think a healthy lifestyle might be worth giving a try. I'm not saying yours isn't, but the "get enough sleep, eat regularly and with correct portions, get sunlight in the morning and go to sleep early, do aerobic exercise (walking/jogging, not weight lifting) fairly regularly" etc. often seem like cliches, but every single one of those things matter more for people with less energy to spare. Once Pokemon GO fixes it's tracker, you could try using nearby pokemons for motivating to walk if you're not too far into the countryside...
By the way, I have a feeling I've seen your name before, might be we frequent similar subreddits!

How do you deal with it? I'm pretty sure I have it and it's really fucking with me :( mostly through memory loss and making my days short because I want to stay in bed so much as a result. My doctor said it could be a result of my anxiety and depression but she isn't sure. No one believes me when I tell them it's a real thing :(

I lost about a year from my memory after getting it, where I was asked when I got sick, and I answered "one year ago", when it was obviously two years, had I checked a calendar. Also spent way more than half of my days in bed. But I've also had days where I stayed in bed for months from depression. It was still very different.
I would love to help you! I've answered some others about how I deal with it these days, seven years after first getting sick, and have been giving some advice as well, do check out my other comments if you want to!
Because of my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and being prone to fall into depression, I cope with both by planning ahead to avoid messing up with either of those. It's hard. Doing too much makes me exhausted, while doing too little makes me depressed.
But at the very least, I aim to have "no zero days". No days where I do no things at all. I make sure I try to eat at least three meals per day, but I praise myself even if I only ate one. I tell myself "good job!" if I got out of bed before noon, and "well done!" if I go to bed before midnight, even if it was from exhaustion. I nurse good habits like this, which helps fight depression. When I'm having a streak of better days, I add more to what I want to do every day, but I never enforce it enough to be sad when I fail. Please, consider giving this reddit comment a read if you haven't already: https://www.reddit.com/r/getdisciplined/comments/1q96b5/i_just_dont_care_about_myself/cdah4af
I said earlier that staying in bed all day from depression and from exhaustion felt very different. Both made me feel like I couldn't move if I tried. However, while depression had me thinking "there's nothing for me out there, I have nothing to do that would be valuable for me or anyone else" (which is a lie!), being exhausted had me feeling "I still need to rest more, I'm still so tired, I'll might get some food later, I'll play some games when I feel a bit better". This was because resting didn't actually give my body (or more importantly, brain) rest. I wanted to do things, I just couldn't. When I was depressed, I didn't want to do anything, I only sometimes did things so that time would pass for my body to go back to sleep again.
It sounds like you're having a really rough time. I would love to help you! Feel free to comment here or send me a direct message, I'll do my best to answer for you!

If you have that, make sure you have been checked for sleep apnea. I meet none of the traditional criteria for it and after having been fatigued and tired increasingly more for years almost all the time I finally had a sleep study and found out I had moderate obstructive sleep apnea a month and a half ago...
terozen ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 05:42:13 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I'm currently going to a world-leading doctor on this syndrome, and he prescribed me to some sleeping hormones because I wasn't properly entering deep sleep. It's definitely similar in that sense. I never felt sleepy, though, just tired. The hormones are so that I'll feel more sleepy and fall into deeper sleep, and it's helping a lot with recovering from the everyday fatigue, so that it doesn't accumulate over the days where I'm more active than normal.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion, though! I'm a pretty straight-forward case for CFS, having triggered the syndrome after a really bad case of mononucleosis over seven years ago. Finally getting some kind of treatment feels great.

It would be nice to wake up and know how much time I have to do shit before falling asleep again. When you don't have any regular sleep patterns, it can be difficult to know how long you'll last. You may think you just had a solid eight hours of sleep but you can easily end up crashing again within a couple of hours.
On the other hand, countdown timers are a cardinal sin of game design and would end up just as stressful and depressing in life. Double-edged sword, I fear.

I hate to be the one to point out flaws, but the study says that:
1) Tests were only done WITHOUT electromagnetic signals nearby.
2) There was no difference in melatonin levels between the control group and the "EMF sensitive" group.
All this has concluded is that people who claim to be EMF sensitive experience less effective sleep when not near an EMF. The general consensus amongst EMF sceptics is that people who claim to be EMF sensitive are just experience a placebo/nocebo effect, which, of course, requires you to believe in EMF sensitivity. If you believe in EMF sensitivity, you've probably experienced it, which suggests you have problems sleeping, which might explain why the EMF sensitive group slept worse in general conditions.

Do you really want a dull throbbing red light in the corner of your vision constantly reminding you of how tired you are?
Or maybe it's bounding values are more extreme. It could be always sitting at what seems like the same value because it's upper bound is how you would feel cranked out of your skull on drugs and the lower bound is how you would feel in the last few moments before you succumb to blood loss and die.
Even better, it could just be a measure of your mass multiplied by the square of your velocity.

I wouldn't, it would remove the option of ever being yourself. You'd be a robot, automating the code that was feeding you the lines. No freedom to say what you actually feel. What if "the best line" was something you completely disagreed with. Maybe, and I really mean maybe I would take the option for the best phrasing of what you currently want to say. That way if you know you're going to say something controversial you can cheat and make it less so.
Jawertae ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 11:44:57 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Sometimes personal morality would get in the way. Speaking to your boss you might have the phrase "if its alright, I want to fuck your brains out" which would lead to an affair and a promotion... but you're married with a family. You know that the best outcome means that even if your wife finds out that you'll be ok but can your conscience stand it? If you don't say it and you never get that promotion are you going to kick youraelf everytime you're in need for money? What if your child needs a surgery and you need funds but you didn't get the pay raise because you didn't bang your boss?
Violatic ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 11:55:16 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I thought the same thing, you might find out people you really liked or got on with were becoming racist or bigoted and you'd be like "well shit now lots of statements are going to agree". You wouldn't be used to phrasing things yourself so your arguing skills would be terrible. I think you phrased it a lot better though.

I think you would be surprised at how frequently it's best to say nothing. I like silence, and if there isn't anything super important to say then I'm happy with it. I'm not sure how many other people that holds true for but I think it's a fair number.

You would need a tone indicator too because even the best thing to say can be said wrong.
slowy ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:50:08 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
But the best thing depends on your motivation and what you want the most of the possible outcomes of the conversation. It'd have to be pretty advanced to know what one is not even aware of sometimes.

There's some glasses out now that fix a few forms of color-blindness and obviously they're working on doing more.
I dunno if that excites you or not or if you already heard of it.
scrabble71 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 12:27:43 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Unfortunately those glasses, so far, can only correct colourblindness if it has been caused by trauma or something - they can't correct inherited colourblindness. And I'm fairly certain no form of glasses (without relaying an image to an implant) could ever correct inherited colourblindness due to it being caused by faulty colour receptors in the eyes rather than brain or optic nerve damage.
Source: Am colourblind and got excited when I first heard of them.
SuperShamou ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 18:32:37 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I've never read any reviews on those glasses, but I figured they would work for common red/green colorblindness. Here's my logic:
I'm R/G colorblind. I can see red and I can see green. But when it's a small object or there's not a lot of light or it's a red thing and green thing beside each other, I can't tell the difference.
I figured it's simply because my red and green cones detected wavelengths slightly closer together than the average person. Therefore many reds and greens will spill over and stimulate the other cone. If it's a huge thing totally saturating my eyes with zillions of photons, my brain can figure out I'm getting way more red or green and I know the color. But if it's a small object or the light is dim and there are relatively a few photons hitting both types of cones, my brain can't figure out if I'm receiving more red or green photons and the color interpretation becomes fuzzy.
scrabble71 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:32:02 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I agree with your logic - that's how I think my R/G colourblindness also works. But that's the reason I don't think the glasses would ever work - because they would need to increase the light in dim situations and somehow increase the number of colour photons that an object reflects (which is possible if it's just a case of increasing the ambient light but it wouldn't be able to increase the photons that a small objects emits in broad daylight).
Plus I went on a website that sold those glasses and it has a test to see which glasses would most suit you - and the test was a standard Ishihara plate test. Afterwards it told me that none of the glasses they currently have would work for me.

Well that was disappointing. It just seems...lazy. None of the reactions/dialogue was actually changed. You have the exact same options to prompt the exact same conversations, only your options were made to look somewhat silly. "I am a soldier" turns into "me shoulder."
Meanwhile, the NPC doesn't react to that at all and continues talking, carrying out an intelligent conversation as if what you said was the standard dialogue option.

Is this actually a specific perk?
911ChickenMan ยท 14 points ยท Posted at 03:43:26 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
In Fallout 1 and 2 there was a perk that would color-code speech options, including speech checks. Green was neutral, red would annoy or provoke the person, and blue would lead to additional rewards or a favorable response. It was kind of redundant, though, as most dialog options are straightforward if you actually take the time to read them.
Edit: The perk's called "empathy", and it can be useful during speech checks. Unlike the newer games, Fallout 1 and 2 didn't label speech checks as such, and you had no indication of success rate unless you took this perk. For example, a normally red option could become blue with a high enough speech skill. Speech failures in the earlier games often resulted in combat as well, so the perk was fairly useful.

Deus Ex has a neural enhancement perk that can allows for something similar as well. The dialogue mechanics are very cool in that game, and can get complex.
Edit: wanted to add that the dialogue outcomes do affect side quest completions in Deus Ex games, and can provide "shortcuts".

Do you know what this would do? How many families would be destroyed?
ghostwriter85 ยท 23 points ยท Posted at 01:29:55 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Certainly to an extent. Right now one of the greatest social skills a person can have in our society is to be a convincing liar. As a terrible liar myself, it puts me at an extreme disadvantage in the work place, in social events, and really everywhere else that humans interact. The lie is probably the most valuable and destructive creation of the human mind. If we took that away from people you would see a dramatic reshaping of our society which I believe after the initial upheaval would be for the better. Imagine a world where your leaders can't lie to you. Your children can't lie to you. So many things would change for the better. Yes it would be hard, but ultimately in a world where we can't lie to each other just maybe we would have a much harder time lying to ourselves. The lie we tell ourselves is always the worst. If a family can be destroyed by the truth, maybe it needs to be torn down so that something more positive can take it's place.
MrNPC009 ยท 19 points ยท Posted at 01:51:27 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
To take away the ability to lie is to take away the ability to choose. Personal secrets become practically nonexistent, because no one can cover them up. While our leaders couldn't lie to us, we wouldn't be able to lie to them either. The bar for probable cause drops to "does the lie dectector go off".
I'm not sure I want to live in a world where I can't keep secrets from anyone who asks the right questions.
Violatic ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 10:28:04 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Plus society would have evolved in such a way that either:
1) People / authority was very efficient at asking the right questions to procure information.
Or
2) We would have a society wide acceptance that asking certain questions was really rude, and people would choose to not answer questions.
Both of these concepts hinge on this idea that lying is a simple binary though. It isn't really, I can simply redirect your question, or only answer a part. Or any number of other tricks we already know. If his goal was to make it easier to spot lying what he would actually make is a world full of politician answers.
However I think OP wanted the ability and not others to have it to. Obviously that is very different to what we're talking about.
ghostwriter85 ยท -2 points ยท Posted at 01:56:21 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Secrets and choice aren't related like that. I can take away your secrets but you still have choice. Certainly your risk/ reward matrix changes dramatically but you still have choice. Would you want criminals to walk if you had a means of simply asking them if they did it? The real answer is if you don't want to be arrested don't break the law. Granted this is all highly hypothetical but I really believe the truth sets you free. All lies are poisons to our soul. Even innocent lies can have terrible consequences. Transparency might be the only thing that can save our society at this point. The lies we are being fed are what's poisoning the well. If you have to lie to someone to keep them with you. Do you really deserve them? I'm not saying it would be easy but eventually I think we would all be better for it.
MrNPC009 ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 02:23:09 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
So I didn't word that properly. My point was that you take away a persons ability to choose privacy.
I hate this argument. It doesn't account for bullshit laws. Imagine the laws a government can pass when it knows you can't lie about breaking them. I don't trust the government not to abuse that power. Or anyone else for that matter (my wife being the exception, though it'd be a while before I came around to the idea).
Imagine, if you will, a scenario in which you a fairly well to do person. Not elite .1%, but well enough off enough that you are proud of your success. Now imagine that you are robbed, and told to give up your Social Security Number, so the robbers can continue to fuck up your life in the future.
In order to extract this information, they place a gun to your head and tell you it you lie to them, they will blow your head off.
What do you do?
No. However, completely eliminating the ability to have personal secrets and revealing those secrets with time, when that person is comfortable with doing so is not the solution to that problem.
I don't like a kind of world that would remove the ability to keep things to myself
ghostwriter85 ยท -1 points ยท Posted at 02:36:45 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
First off privacy in and of itself is a sort of socially acceptable lie. I agree that not everything in my life is everyone else's business. I think in a world where you couldn't life there would plenty of things people wouldn't ask.
Second I also hate the if you don't wanna get arrested don't break the law argument but in a world where you couldn't lie eventually our legal system would come to reflect that when the powerful get caught breaking stupid laws.
Third point, if you couldn't lie you would see crime drop to almost zero. The whole point of financial crimes (used in your illustration) is that people think they are going to get away with them. In a world where I only have to ask if you stole the money, who is going to steal the money. When you seek that line of credit, a simple question will prevent you from using my personal information. Seriously you go to buy a TV, "is this your information" boom identity theft over done with. Not even possible anymore.
Fourth point nothing says you can't refuse to answer a question. If a person doesn't respect your privacy enough to table a question, then why would you want to be with them.
Seriously if you couldn't lie life would be so fundamentally different that's its almost impossible for our minds to comprehend. Wouldn't you want to live in a crime free society, where your politicians can't lie so that the government actually does it's job instead of trying to distract us. People would find a way to maintain privacy. If this were real I'm sure saying I prefer not to answer that would be totally acceptable in most social situations. The whole point of this is to level the playing field. Some people already have this sort of ability and the converse ability to lie without detection. These are tremendously valuable skills in the business world. Why do we choose our leaders on the ability to lie convincingly rather than their character.
MrNPC009 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:49:32 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, but that's the problem. Your body treats "refusing to answer" as a lie, if you indeed has something to hide. So it would be picked up on the lie detector and that undoes most of your comment.
ghostwriter85 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:54:05 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Well now you are putting an unstipulated limitation on the tech not posited initially, but I think people would tend to understand more than you give them credit for. People already know when you don't want to answer a question. Nine times out of ten you throw out a simple lie that you both know is a lie or you do exactly what I said and tell the person you don't want to talk about it. This way is just more honest.
Also keep in mind that lie detectors don't actually work. It's all pseudoscience. I wouldn't get too worked up on the details.

Lie detectors detect lies based off our bodies natural reactions when lying. They do so at better than 50% accuracy. The science is sound, however it is imperfect. It relies on a baseline measurement, which the most successful methods of beating lie detectors focus on manipulating.

Nah, they were expecting 3 digits in decimal, so if it's an overflow, you're probably looking at 7 to 9 bits, since 6 resets at 63, and 10 resets at 1023. If it reset in a 32 bit int, then you're looking at millions of years...
Alternatively, the memory location for the number is also used by another function that has write access due to hanky programming to save space.

Let's say you work there for 50 years, 50 weeks a year, 5 days a week, 2^32/(50*50*5) is around 300,000 so if it counted every time you looked away and looked back or let's say blinked, you would have to blink 300,00 times a day while looking at them. Apparently people blink about 1200 times per hour so for an 8 hour day you'd get 9600 blinks in. You'd have to blink at about 31 times the speed of normal blinking to make it. Normally it's 10-15 times a minute so you'd be blinking 310 to 465 times a minute or ~6 times a second. A blink blinds you for 300 to 400 milliseconds so you would be blind for 2.1 seconds of each second you were looking at your coworker, blind and with sore eyelids.

Google's style guide prefers signed integers: styleguide. A lot of people follow it.
Signed integers can be used so that negative values signal failure as a holdover from C because C++ doesn't have abstract data types. This is a common practice but I would not recommend it, as it is very error prone. (See this post for examples of better ways to handle this).
Regardless, I'd use [unsigned] int (maybe [u]int_least32_t for safety) instead of uint64_t. No reason to force 64 bits on 32 bit word machines.

It does have a scary premise though. I agree about the Sherlock Holmes/Moriarty analogy but with Ryuk, the other Shinigami, The way the death note itself works, And Lights descent into madness it could be seen as scary, not a horror though.

The gothic castle is a type of finch native to Southern England. It's known for its black body and grey head separated by a jagged pattern that resembles the parapets of a castle.

Legally speaking they are not. Even then they are split into two groups of land and sea birds. But all birds in that group are the same if they are the same color. So, legally speaking jackdaws and crows are the same.

It's turned into a bit of a game where I imagine where he's going or what he may be doing.

The shit part to this is if you spend two days in some new place. On the first day you'd see lots of 0s and get excited if you see a one. On the subsequent day you'd see a mix of ones and zeros. So now you won't know if one of those people was a person you saw in a completely different place or not.

When I switched cell phones earlier this year I discovered a while in that the new one had a feature I'd never seen before, it kept a tally of how many text messages you've exchanged with people next to their name.
After a few months, most people have like 10-20 tops, since I almost never give out my phone number. My sisters each had several thousand inside of those same few months.
I don't always think of myself as a good older brother, as I don't see them nearly as often as I'd like. But that stupid number did kind of make my eyes tear up when I realized what it was for.

I want to make a AR app that is similar to this. My idea was the ability to Discretely tag people using face recognition. If they say a phrase like "my name is", "I'm" or say a random name to start a conversation it asks you if you want to put that as a name. Then tags can be added later from your smart phone with where you saw them. Honestly, the only reason I want to make this is because I suck with names.
I hope something like Google Glass gets popular and not weird. AR would have a lot of possibilities if it was able to be used as a HUD.

I have often wondered if I have ever seen a specific bird before. Perhaps the birds recognize me but don't know that I don't recognize them, and they get mad when I don't say hi. Perhaps they think I am mean but in reality I just can't tell them apart. They all look the same to me. Does that make me racist? Or would it be "birdist"?

It was my first trip of that scale, so there's no way I would've ever actually seen anyone more than one time. On my way home, I'm sitting in my seat, I see this girl walk past that looks like a girl that had come out to my work a few months before. I swore it was her, and still believe it could've been her. If we had the number-above-head thing, I could've confirmed it! But now I gotta wait until next spring when she comes to my work again to find out..

While out grocery shopping, you see another regular customer whom you don't really know that just broke triple digits. You figure, 'Eh, it's been long enough. It's about time to say something to them. Their number is pretty high.' You walk up, and say "Hey, your meeting number is 100. We see each other often enough, what's your name?"

Yeah underweight, it's not really the first thing you think of for myfitnesspal, (you'd think it's to help limit calories and lose weight).
I was usually underweight, although I got food poisoning for a bit and lost even more. Went from 107 to 125.
Didn't realize I wasn't really eating enough until I started tracking. Apparently two meals a day isn't enough.
I did eat bad at the start to get "easier calories" as I wasn't used to eating so much food. Oreos, McDoubles, a lot of whipped coffee drinks, not great health wise but if it was 10pm I was scrambling to get the last 500 calories in me.

Because transitioning from 3 to 2 meals is really difficult if you dont plan it out. If you eat healthy, you can get the energy you need out of two or three hundred calories. A lot of people dont though. Also, when your coworkers go out for lunch, its easier just to go with them, and eat a full meal.

Your going about this wrong. You need it to highlight foods with color coding that displays whether a food is good for your daily intake based on current intake. Hovering the food will display it's overall nutrient relationship with what you need and have had. This way there is no room for personal error.

Legally they are allowed to be off by up to 20%. That is 400 calories per day or gaining a pound every 9 days if you are aiming for a 2000 calorie diet and the error works against you. Additionally if there are less than 0.5 grams of something they can label as 0. Less than 0.9 and they can label as less than 1. These hidden calories can build up.
Another consider ton is serving sizes, which are a joke. Who can measure out 2 tablespoons of whipped topping for their coffee every morning? And who is the idiot that decided half a cup was a serving if ice cream? We need to seriously revamp serving sizes and go by weight like the rest of the world which uses a standard 100g.

Honestly if your goal is to lose weight don't bother counting lost calories. It's way less accurate than counting regular calories (put sedentary into activity on myfitnesspal) and staying under that even with exercise. Just try to get most of your calories from good sources like grilled chicken and veg and even with exercise you'll feel satiated.

Not really. Aging makes you weaker because errors accumulate, usually on the basis of misnutrition.

But in real life getting nutrients doesn't add to your health constantly (unless you start out malnourished); it just slows the rate of decline.

For what it's worth I agree with the other guy. Your approach is too typical to how games are played. Real life is about staying healthy and alive. You wouldn't have XP, rather it would be more like Mario coming up to breathe for air, or conquer getting really shit faced in bad fur day. Or how the Sims just get insubordinate when they're dirty or hungry and won't do anything.

LonePaladin ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:14:44 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
It has nothing to do with power. It mainly serves as a requirement for certain perks (like buying consumables with the Alcohol descriptor, or taking the vehicle tutorials). Higher levels are actually a detriment, as certain debuffs (like Arthritis) scale with your level.

If you have shitty hearing in those frequencies, then you're not gonna hear it well. I don't know what frequencies they're on but I can hear the red nirnroots far better than the normal ones if I recall correctly. Up until I came across them I didn't realize there were any tones associated with the nirnroots, and then afterwards I could notice the normal nirnroot ones too since I was looking out for it, only nowhere as well.

I had to remake so many characters in Oblivion.

I've exited that sewer so many times wondering "should I remake my character now or am I good?" I don't like the way Skyrim did leveling up, but atleast I didn't have to remake my character 20 times.

There was a limit. In fact, not all of them would open! There was a limit that would increase as the main quest goes on, but it's like half the possible gates.

AcrolloPeed ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 06:24:20 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
There were like 4 levels to the potion depending on how many nirnroots you could get to Sindarin. I think the 4th level potion was 600 seconds Night Eye, +100 to encumbrance (carry 100 more lbs), and it boosted health and fatigue by 20 and blade, blunt, restoration, destruction, sneak, and security by 10.
Given that nirnroot was a pretty sucky alchemy ingredient otherwise, it was a decent potion. No need for a night eye spell or a torch, you could walk in the darkest dungeons no problem.

So the thing that confuses the fuck out of me, is you spend Oblivion picking Nirnroot. Not just one or two here and there, you commit fucking PLANT GENOCIDE on that little herb that never grows back.
And do you replant it? Farm it? Try to save the species, that the book tells you is endangered and nearly extinct?
Nope.
You grind it into a paste and drink it.
Then Skyrim comes around, and apparently plant genocide is exactly what nirnroot needed, because now it's fucking everywhere, to the point of it being agriculturalised, and it has a mutant strain, too.
But we know what we need to do to fix the endangered mutant strain, right? That's it. PLANT GENOCIDE.

While you're in blackreach (from doing signus whateverthefuck's [crazy dwarven lover dude in the igloo] quest, he tells you to go there) if you pick a crimson nirnroot it starts the quest for you.

But complaints aside, discovering blackreach was one of the defining moments in gaming for me. That initial moment of "oh wow" when you see the vista, followed by an even bigger "oh my god" when you realize how truly large this hidden area was, will forever be a gold standard for exploration and RPGs. It is what I compare all other world reveals to.

I went through Blackreach, exploring the entire area, in about 3 hours. Collected all the crimson ninroots and additional loot, killed the dragon, and completed the quest. It seems kinda weird to me that people struggled so much with the ninroots. They made an audible noise when you're nearby and they really stand out, plus most of them are right by the water.

I think people who are complaining about it are referring to the Oblivion quest, where you have to bring the guy a total of 100 Nirnroot to complete the quest, and instead of being in one place they're spread out around the entire map.

Something most people are low on is vitamin D and magnesium. Magnesium deficiency is also apparently hard to detect because your body will break down bone to make up for it.
This is all based off of very superficial google search.

Those are cool options, but in real world use they're both lacking, Google glass because it was a very early demo and hololens because you need high specs. The real revolutionary devices and usage in ways that people will get excited about are coming up with androids new daydream system. It's really three parts that will make for awesome vr experience on Android. Standard specs for phones, a reference design headset and a platform for content, also this stuff will be open for people to develop so it should be much better than previous vr.

There's a keyboard you control with your eye- An eye tracker checks if you're looking above, below, or middle and left, right, or middle. It presents an alphabet tree:
Look right and middle, A. Up and right, then right and middle, B. Left then middle, backspace. What's nice is that it's time insensitive, so with practice you get faster. What's not nice is that it requires moving an eye, which most people can't do independently.

It does all the sciences amazingly well. All in one place so it's extremely useful. There are things like flight trackers and weather maps too. And more gimmicky stuff like the number of piano tuners in Chicago (a Fermi estimation reference) etc.
It even does stuff about linguistics and people. Have a look on the examples section of the website. It's analytical skills are great (you can even do your Facebook profile IIRC).
It's just really cool to have everything together, in one place, and quick. If you do maths or physics as a hobby/academic/job it's invaluable IMO.

That works well for cities you're familiar with, but new cities will be harder to navigate. And although you can memorize directions, you wont have a reliable sense of how far away the next turn will be and where each turn is relative to you. Arrows in the sky make that much easier to understand.

I suggest you get a few friends in on it with you and form a party (I partied up with my wife, but it's not quite as effective with only two). That way you can have people to encourage you, and you have external motivation to get things done (if you fuck up and forget to do something or indulge in bad habits during a boss fight, your entire party takes damage).
[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 07:09:59 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Oh! Also! Make sure you use the actual website, not just the app. There are some features that can only be applied on the main website, including allocating stat points when you level up (which can change things like mana recharge rate and how much gold you get for performing real-life tasks). I didn't realize I had them until Level 15, so I had been sitting on all that potential progress for nothing!

A calorie indicator that shows the amount of calories I can eat to lose/maintain my weight that is calculated in real time according to my intake and energy usage
StealthGhost ยท 36 points ยท Posted at 03:24:25 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I've said this many times. You could set it to your desired calorie deficit then if you eat something which you have no idea what the calories are you would know where you stand, and if you're done eating for the day and haven't me your goal you exercise a bit.
It would make it possible to exactly hit your daily goal and I think would make weight loss infinitely easier.

Funny thing is, we have apps for that. If you don't know exactly, guess and find something similar. It won't hurt you if you overestimate. People just won't use them, and some people still refuse to believe calories in calories out.
StealthGhost ยท 22 points ยท Posted at 07:41:55 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Well yea you can do a decent job with apps and stuff but knowing 100% for sure in and out with 0 effort would change everything I think, maybe it's just me. I actually gravitate toward fast food and prepackaged crap because of this, I know how many calories there are. That being said, knowing exactly how much I've eaten when I make homemade shit or go out to dinner where there aren't calories or if these places aren't accurate would be great, you just focus on keeping that deficit and motivation to exercise or eat less would come naturally to balance the number.

Probably not, I worked for a long time to get myself in shape and when I started off cutting out junk food, I was ravenous even if I had just eaten a perfectly decent meal. As I lost weight and exercised more I found that I had to remind myself to eat something because I'd often forget and wouldn't feel the hunger pangs.

I like Fitbit because it takes my heart rate into consideration. MFP knows how many steps I took but I have to go in and try to ghetto rig a system of calorie estimates using cardio exercises to accurately paint the calorie-out picture.
Fitbit I carry with me at all times except for an hour or two in bed once every two days. Love the damn thing now.

Only accurate to within a few hundred calories (10%) and doesn't add your calories in for you. There are plenty of apps out there that help, but you have to use them. We want it to be automatic.
Throw in a system that just has good bypass your stomach when you go over your limit, and the world would be a different place.

A lot of people don't need to know exactly what they're eating every day, they just need a close enough number to put their current eating into perspective, and a thing to remind them to look at the packaging on products occasionally, MyFitnessPal made a big difference to me because before I was never looking at how bad what I was eating actually was and thinking I was doing well when the things I was eating for lunch were like 600 calories each.
Essentially, they're popular because they're better than nothing, and for a lot of people the alternative actually is nothing.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 13:12:32 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Man, people are so fucking negative. It's not worthless. I also use the app myfitnesspal to I put calories and along with using the Fitbit, it has helped me drop ten pounds already. You can use them and not make any changes to your diet and exercise and see how terrible you're doing, but you can also use them to make a difference in your life. All the comments above are a circle jerk of why bother
mofukkinbreadcrumbz ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 13:16:18 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Because the app will put you at a deficit of 500 calories to lose weight. Even if it's off by 300, you're still under by 200 and will lose weight. Also, it's very hard to hit the goal on the dot and people try to stay under, so now you're talking about people being at at least 300 under every day. They will lose weight.
A lot of the apps will adjust based on how much you lose, too. There are 3500 kcal to a pound, so if after 10 weeks, you've lost 5 lbs on a 500 kcal deficit per day, it will know that it needs to drop your daily goal by an additional 250 kcal to hit your goal of 1lb/week.
BroffaloSoldier ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 07:25:00 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
That would be awesome. I always consider a large margin of error when using My Fitness Pal and similar apps. Plus, user honesty is an imperative factor in the degree of effectiveness apps like that can have.
However, if you are wanting to put in the time to log each meal and all exercise daily, MFP is a decent tool. I have been using it (almost) daily for approximately a year and I feel that it has helped me to lose at least a portion of the 60 lbs I've dropped. If nothing else, it's held me accountable. That, and it has kind of opened my eyes to how truly fucking awful most of the things I would eat daily actually are. I certainly would recommend it to others trying to lose weight, but advise they not rely on the accuracy of its data completely.

jarvistardis ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 04:20:22 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
It usually involves driving a bit differently, like maybe coasting as much as possible or something. You actively try to use as little gas as possible, instead of just driving normally. It often means driving slower than you'd like.
Edit: spelling
Milkshakes00 ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 04:22:16 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yes, to me, that's just trying to get optimal gas mileage. Coasting up a hill/giving a little gas down a hill/using brakes as little as possible/shifting properly.
I've never heard of 'hyper mileing' and tbh, it sounds like some whacky hipster activist term.
cbslinger ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 05:13:49 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Some people go to the store with coupons to save a few bucks. Then there are those 'extreme couponers' who show up to the store and receive hundreds of dollars of groceries and have the store end up paying them.
Hyper milers are like the unreasonable version of people who 'try to get good mileage'. They're probably going to be assholes on the road, will sit in misery with the AC off, etc.

Especially when your partner's % slowly goes down over the relationship until its at a 0% and the bedroom has been dead for years, until you wake up one morning and see her number is at 1%. This gives you hope, the next day it's at 3%, 7% 15%. You make your move and hope 15% is enough. She says she has a "headache" and you see the number decrease again... 13%.. 12%...5%...0%...

Reminds me of a story I heard ( I googled it but can't find it. Heard it either on Reddit or another forums). This guy got an 88 tattoo not knowing its significance. This beautiful girl on a dating app asked him out. He course said yes. Turns out she saw his tattoo and assumed he was all about that neo-nazism. He was not. Ended up being very awkward for both of them.

And then normally the pattern repeats every 106n+3 so for example in German it's: Million, Milliarde, Billion, Billiarde, Trillion, Trilliarde. That's also called long scale. The English system is short scale. And if I recall correctly for the Chinese 10000 is the basic scale, so they have words for every 104n
Edit: chinese have multiple systems that lead to confusion as well

The first things people who break a relationship on bad terms will say are usually the most hurtful things they think they can tell you. I'm sure I'd trust your judgements on your life more than mine, but people getting out of relationship will say some hurtful stuff to rationalize their choice or to try to bring you down.
You could just be horrible in every way,..but someone saying they weren't interested in you, after being with you for a while (unless this is some high-school sweetheart innocent shit) might just be projecting. Don't get too down on yourself.
astromancers ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 10:27:56 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I've tried to tell myself that a lot about my ex... that he knew he had the power to hurt me, and he used it. He always said that he could make me hate him if he wanted... and he succeeded. I think he was definitely projecting to an extent, because what he said doesn't line up with how he was behaving while we were together.
But that shit hurts worse than I thought. It trivialised our whole relationship, friendship and romantic. If they make the choice to end it, they shouldn't have to bring me down and try to goad me into saying something awful so they feel justified. :(

I would go with "number of people within 10 feet that would have sex with me if I just asked them." Then you can triangulate who would have sexual intercourse with you! Or if were more futuristic just have a 'mouse over halo' effect on those same people, but then you can't make jokes based on 10 foot distances with accuracy anymore.

Is it like whole-body twerking, or just a specific body part? If you stayed in on heavy tic days, how many days a month would you remain at home?
SubatomicCake ยท 23 points ยท Posted at 04:38:38 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Actually more like I don't want to inadvertently creep people out, haha although hitting them is a bit of a concern.
It's actually like a hip twitch that some people say looks like twerking, but the rest of my body ends up moving anyways. I don't think that a lot of people notice it usually, or at least don't say anything, and at least one of my friends didn't know for the first year I knew her so it's pretty under control now.
Honestly, it depends on how bad it is. Around seventh grade I began to have frequent "storms" where I would basically have nonstop full body twitches to the extent that I basically threw myself to the floor, I didn't go to school and switched to online school, and if it was that bad I might not ever leave the house.
For the most part though, my Tourrette's isn't that bad and a lot of people have it a lot worse. Sorry for the long post, I might have answered some things you didn't ask. If you have any more questions, I'd be happy to offer what little I know.

Zero real knowledge of Tourette's, but I pulled this from wikipedia:
PineappleBoots ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:41:37 on August 16, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I'm confused about this part, as it seems many people with tourette's are embarrassed of the condition. If it's conscious, could they simply not do it? (even if the sensation would then not subside)
Fermorian ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:08:33 on August 17, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I feel like the sneeze analogy plays well here: You can feel a sneeze coming, and once you're about to sneeze, you just kind of give into it and let it happen, rather than try to hold it in. Sure, maybe you can clamp down hard enough and stifle it, but maybe you can't and just end up with snot on your shirt. Although sneezing generally isn't a pleasant process, just about everyone consciously "let's it happen", you know?
Again, no real knowledge of Tourette's, but that's my thinking process. I hope that made some sense lol

SubatomicCake ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 14:03:33 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
While I don't think we know the underlying cause, the medicine I take to treat it reduces the levels of dopamine and serotonin in the brain.
Also, while I'm not a doctor and I'm not sure that this is accepted anymore, I have heard that the tics are caused by a malfunctioning "filter" in the brain -- your brain usually generates a bunch of "junk" movements, which are then filtered out. In people with Tourrette's, this filter isn't fully functional.

MrThom_ ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:31:56 on August 9, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
It's like a neurological disorder, and basically you just have a bunch of involuntary tics. Think of it like with motor tics (involving movements) as like a muscle spasm, tho it's something with the brain.

Do your tics vary so much day to day that you could stay in on heavy tic days and still live your regular life? Most people with migraines can take a day off once a month or so and still function.
If you stayed in on a heavy tic day, how many days a month would that mean? And, in your personal life, how do you define a heavy tic day? What happens when you are out & about on a heavy tic day?
AncientPapaya ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 04:13:29 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
They can vary a decent amount, but mine are mild enough that I can still mostly be a functioning human even on a bad day. Its just something ive kinda learned to deal with...I would say bad days for me end up happening maybe 4-5 times a month?
Heavy tic day for me mostly just means either any kind of vocal tic appearance, or that I'm basically doing my one neck tic like probably 10ish times a minute.
Again though, there's a whole range of what would be considered bad for me.
I usually try to avoid doing things that I know make it worse for me as well (not getting enough sleep, caffeine, stuff touching my neck)
Being in public makes them worse too, but not something I can really realistically avoid much hahah.
Edit: Answering the question I forgot. What happens when I go out and about on a bad day is I mostly just get funny looks from people on the bus or the street hahaha...plus side is no one wants to sit right next to the crazy person hitting herself on the bus!
Edit2: Seriously though I love to talk about this stuff. Feel free to ask any questions anyone has or pm me with them...I'm going to sleep now though and will be back in 8 hours

Ive yet to try alcohol or drugs. SSRI's made them decrease a bit when I first went on them, but they have since returned to normal.
I would say its more like an itch. Hiccups you can't really stop. Tics I can supress for a certain time, its just really uncomfortable, and the pressure to do it (scratch the itch/tic) gets worse the longer you wait.
MrThom_ ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:38:36 on August 9, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
If your neurologist won't prescribe you drugs, but you want something, try Natural calm/ask your neurologist about it. you can get it on amazon, and it's like a magnesium supplement which i rely heavily on. Take it with something like iced tea, (haven't done anything like iced tea or water, don't do water, even though it's "flavorless" it has a subtle flavor which gets overpowered), get the original, or if you want, be fancy and get a flavored one (maybe it will taste better in water, i'm not sure).
MrThom_ ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 12:36:06 on August 9, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
not OP, but I have a similar situation where i can still somewhat function on a bad day, also have an annoying neck tic, so I can answer a bit i think. I take Natural Calm, which is a magnesium supplement, and it calms me down, tho i've become reliant on it, as if I miss a dose, I usually can't go to sleep, so this is why I drink iced tea at like 9:30pm sometimes. (It's "flavorless" so i don't notice it in iced tea, but in water, there is a slight flavor which sucks, hence why iced tea) and soon i'm going to start a prescription drug for my tics. And it kinda sorta is like hiccups I guess.

I have an issue with my neck tics, which is kinda like, you know how you crack your neck, but in various little directions. Sometimes if it happens a lot, especially if I go running from like Cross Country/Spring Track, I can get dizzy, so much so that I have to sit out. My coach is so understanding of me, I love him in that sense.
wardog157 ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 04:37:24 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Not op obviously, but have tourrettes as well. I would probably watch my diet, as I find certain things can make the tics worse. And probably just stay a little bit more to myself. Wouldn't drastically change my day; would still go the gym because that's what I love doing and would still wrench on my car. But would probably avoid going out that night if I had planned on it. Most people with tourrettes tics aren't bad to the point where they are forced to alter thier lifestyles on days they are particularly bad. For example, mine effect my head movement, so when I tick I kind of either quickly move my head to the side. But when I really concentrate on something (ie, proper form when lifting weights, putting my car back together, taking a test) my tics drastically diminish. So I don't nescearily have to alter my life, because when I do something important or potentially dangerous, they diminish because I'm concentrated. But thats me. Also if you have any questions about tourrettes please inbox me or comment on this. Have grown up with it since I was a kid and there are so many misconceptions about it I just want to straighten them up. A lot more people openly make fun of people with tourrettes (yes even adults) and I think that maybe by spreading education, misconceptions can be cleared up and maybe the people who make fun of people with things that affect public appearence (such as tourrettes) will stop. So please ask away!

Also Like /u/EyeronOre said, if I can, usually I try to avoid socializing because I have this neck tic and it makes me look like a psychopath a bit, or I'm going mentally crazy, something of the sorts.

I also have tourrettes, so I hope I am an acceptable substitute. If I could know how much I would tic during each day, I would just become more reclusive and avoid social interaction with people I haven't already told. My tics are mostly facial, but if I had tics in my hand and needed to do something with fine motor skills, I might take some sort of relaxant.

Used to be mostly vocal, not mostly motor. If curious, here's a small bit on how Tourette's are diagnosed, not a professional. Maybe keep a small journal if you want. also I recommend visiting a neurologist if you haven't.

Hey - I've got Tourette's too. I find that my tics are highly correlated with my anxiety level and my level of exhaustion. Do you have days where you otherwise feel fine but your tics are really bad?

It would make it so much easier not to binge on ice cream after an otherwise good day.
Edit: I wasn't gonna do the whole edit-a-popular-comment thing, but here we are.
Thanks to everyone suggesting apps like MyFitnessPal, but the idea for the permanent HUD is it saves me having to look up and weigh food, plus it's an instant reminder to not binge rather than thinking about it halfway through like I normally do.

Buy 2 litres of soda. Divide into 3-calorie cups. Each is now 5 calories. Pour back into bottle. The bottle now has 5/3 of its original caloric content. Repeat to taste. Then give it to your neighbours' kids and watch them have the sugar high of their life.

HaulCozen ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 02:40:10 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
But the whole point of rounding is so that the host server doesn't have to keep track of low-calorie particles. If it only rounds on the display on the client side, the server still has to spend resources tracking stuff, and the client gets more overhead.

Right, but the original comment's intention was to cut host resource usage from infinite to finite, so even if you round to .1 calories the exploit can still be done assuming the world is still analogue.
Also I think if the client HUD rounded differently it is more for UI/aesthetic reasons? But I do suppose that in some super intense situations where the client is overburdened it is better to leave higher precision stuff up to the host.

You have to assume the calories you are eating though. Unless you have a perfectly closed calorimeter and the patience to calculate the % of each compound in every meal you eat, and a scientific balance to weigh out everything you eat to determine how many calories are in it. So... no apps don't really cut it, might as well just guess.

I think you could probably rig up a crude calorimeter, set the door on fire and figure it out with q = mcฮT. Not sure I can be arsed with that though.
Edit: okay fuck it I'm bored
According to Wikipedia, red oak has an energy density of 14.9 MJ/kg. Looking at the nearest door to me (a door in a hotel in Poole, England) I'm guessing it's about 6ยผ ft by 2ยฝ ft by 1 in which gives a volume of about 1.3 cubic feet. Oak has a density of 900 kg/m3 according to a quick Google search which means our door weighs around 36 kg (~80 lb). Burning the door would release 536 MJ of energy, which is 128,107 food calories. This is of course assuming the door is solid oak, if the door is a shitty hollow plywood job then it'll obviously contain less calories (and probably be a poor substitute in taste as well).
TL;DR eating doors would make you fucking fat
PantherophisNiger ยท 264 points ยท Posted at 22:02:21 on August 6, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Right, but how much of that stored energy is usable energy (digestible)? 90-99% of the door's material is going to be indigestible lignin (wood).
Great for fiber though.

The UK, not only have we only partially adopted the metric system (most retail is metric but the roads are in miles for example) it also varies a lot between individuals. One bloke could weigh himself as 13 stone, drive five miles to the pub and buy an 8 oz steak with his pint of beer while another could weigh himself in kilos, hike eight kilometres to the shop and buy 1/2 a kilo of mince with his litre of gin.
We're generally fluent in both systems, although the younger, more urban and more to the South East you are the more metric units you probably use.

It's quite useful actually, it means we understand the units of both America and the Continent. I'd say 2/3 of the people I know (including me) use stone and people pretty much universally use feet to measure their height.

Yeah now I think about it; here in Australia we tend to use feet and inches to measure height. Plus wave size for some reason and also jump lengths at the ski hill.
Pretty well everything else is metric though which I think is nice. I do work with the oil industry occasionally and a lot of the measurements there are in inches simply because so much of the equipment comes from America.

If it's tied to your brain it would probably detect anything that you intended to eat. So if you see a plate of food in front of you it counts the calories in the food, but once you finish the food and start to nibble on the plate it will tell you that there's no calories in the plate.

Pretty easy to tell, just stay still for a long time and see if the distance stays exactly the same. That means they're not moving. And if the distance from a specific point is the same every time you check, you can be pretty confident that they're totally immobile, so likely dead or comatose in a hospital bed.

There was a story I read a while back, it might have been on reddit. It was a scenario where everyone had a countdown on their wrist to when they would meet their soulmate. One guy doesn't believe in it, until he sees a guy across the street who's absolutely beautiful. The other guy notices him at the same time, and runs towards him, and is promptly hit by a car.
When the original guy reaches the street, he sees the other guy's wrist. The timer is stuck on some small number, 7 seconds or something, just like his. It remains stuck at 7 seconds forever, as a reminder than he will never find his soulmate and that he was the one who caused his soulmate's death.

DemeaningSarcasm ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 04:48:37 on August 8, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I'm not surprised,it would depend heavily on the information that was put on them. If I recall correctly, this was an issue even when HUD displays were on fighter jets. Having flashing lights everywhere for sure would be a distraction.
At the same time though, the fact that I have a gps on my dashboard is also a disttaction, as is having to look down on my cluster unit. In this situation, it is probably better to have that information displayed on my windshield.
But having things like lane assist on my windshield might be more of a distraction as that would probably flash up five times in a trip.

Having the name of someone pop up when you look at them would be so helpful. Whenever I meet someone, their name is gone from my memory after a few seconds. After I remember their name, I get so anxious and scared that I will forget their name, or spell it wrong just because I know so many different names and I'm scared it will get mixed up into the invisible library of names I have in my brain. It really drives me nuts.

And if you pass a certain negative thresh hold, then you die. Crippling adds permanent negative counters to your health, and slowly ticks back down to 0 to show the progress of healing/recuperation of that wound.

What I mean is that a long time ago, when the tradition of wedding rings started, it was intended to signify that someone was taken (basically: "hands off this person").
Back then, the only two options were not engaged to be married, or engaged to be married.
Not saying I agree with this or anything, but just saying how it's interesting how we're basically looking for a modern day version of this.

ohimjustagirl ยท 25 points ยท Posted at 03:01:23 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Some friends, my husband and I were talking about this at a bbq not long before our wedding. The conversation came up because they all worked in the mining industry and someone asked if he'd wear a ring. He said no (which was the first I'd heard of it), and I suggested that maybe I wouldn't either (too much wine).
Everyone jumped up and down at me and said that I should wear one since the only reason he wouldn't was safety issues.
I mentioned that literally the only reason anyone wears a wedding ring is to announce to everyone that they aren't single, so if he didn't, then I wouldn't either. I really didn't think it was that big a deal, but it became a debate that lasted the whole night.
I was really surprised that others didn't see it the same way. They suggested it was a symbol of our love and our vows... but my thoughts are "a symbol for whom?".
I know I'm married, he knows I'm married, I know he loves me etc etc... why is a visible, prominent reminder required if not for other people's benefit?
Anyway, we've been together 10 years but it has always stuck in my mind so I'm weirdly pleased to see some validation of my thoughts by a random stranger online.
ZenGuruji ยท 21 points ยท Posted at 03:17:10 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Just taking a guess, but I bet they are kind of traditional folks, and that on a subconscious level, they interpreted you saying you'd rather not wear your ring as saying to the world: "I'm open to flirting with other guys."
I'm a guy, and even I think that kind of logic is ridiculous. They are basically projecting that if not for a woman's ring, then some random, opportunistic guy is going to hit on her and manipulate her into cheating on her husband. Gimme a break. A person has to be really insecure to believe that the only thing preventing a wife from cheating is her ring.
ohimjustagirl ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 05:21:05 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Exactly! Especially when the same logic clearly didn't apply to my soon-to-be husband!
In the end we compromised. I said I would happily wear a ring to satisfy him as long as he wore one too, because we should have the same standards for each other, and he agreed to wear it at all times when not working.
Neither of us really care anymore, but it was a strange debate. He genuinely couldn't see the double standard between a wife having to brand herself as married to all and sundry while the husband had no such rules purely for the sake of tradition.
The really silly part was that he worked in foreign countries for large stretches of time while I stayed home with our son. A ring changes absolutely nothing in those circumstances but our trust levels are about unbreakable, symbol or no symbol.
ZenGuruji ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 05:53:03 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I agree with you, it is a double standard. But in all honesty, I think that issue emerged because a ton of women actually find a weird romantic aspect to their ring's symbolism as being "claimed" by a man. In other words, I think there are a lot of women who perpetuate that pressure on other married women to wear rings.
A lot of married women seem to love showing off their rings -- especially in a back-handed sort of way to their single lady friends. Like, "Check it out... I got myself a man who wanted me to be his woman for life!!" and then the obligatory: "Don't worry, you'll find the right guy some day!"
And yes, I promise I'm a guy, haha.

There's a number of fucked up people out there, but those fucked up people might be just normal enough that they prefer to harass a girl that might be single target than one in a relationship. Better to potentially protect yourself rather than make a statement.

Next time just tell them "I wear my ring on my hearth, I don't need to show it off. You only love your wife/husband if everyone seeing it?" - it usually shut up folks like these.

On a slightly related note, I wonder how many people suffer from actual treatable social anxiety and have just convinced themselves that it's "introversion". I've met a few people who get a panic-freeze-reaction when interacting with semi-strangers but construe that as just being introverted. Don't get me wrong, I think it's good awareness and acceptance are increasing for introversion but I wonder how many people are hiding a diagnosable illness behind a personality trait.

Not many people in my world, at least, are either willing or able to meet halfway or listen to rational argument. I feel like so many social interactions are all or nothing in terms of consequences.

Look at their feet. If they point to you then they want to be in a conversation with you, if not then...
Now that I think about it, a HUD that looks for body language and micro-expressions would be pretty handy. Even a center of balance line would be useful if you're in security and trying to figure out what a person is carrying or protecting.

This is completely false. It's considered an aggressive stance to be standing and facing directly towards the other person during conversations. Instead most people (especially men) naturally tend to face each other at an indirect angle. This obviously includes their feet

That would be awful, you'd end up disliking a lot of people as a result of knowing what they feel about you. It would either make you into a bitter person unable to see anyone in the same way again or you would purposefully avoid contact to avoid meeting another person that doesn't like something about you. Both actions would show on the outside which would further add to the already negative feelings people have about you, feeding the flames of the problem.

Or look at a clock, remember the time, then look back. If the time changes you're in a dream.
Works with any text too, look at the text, remember it, then look back. In dreams it will be completely different text and often different colours and sizes each time you look back
Another one is to count the number of fingers on both hands.

It just takes practice, everybody wakes up on their first couple times, it's the "holy shit I'm dreaming" sensation that wakes you up. Just keep doing it and try to relax, if you freak out you are going to wake up every time.
The trick to doing checks are to do them all the time when you are awake. Do one right now, do one every 5 minutes. I do a check everytime I look at my phone.

wake up an hour or two earlier than usual, then go back to sleep while staying aware of your situation.
this way you will skip the exploding head syndrome and sleep paralysis and go straight into a lucid dream.
when your world "collapses" meaning your sight becomes blurry, go with your face to the ground and look at it.your vision will become clear again because you are familiar with the ground.
also don't focus on things that make no sense,you will be confused and become fixated on it which may spiral into fear and the ebd of the dream.

I think the only time I've ever become aware I was dreaming was when I was dreaming about arguing with my mom, and all of a sudden she started singing the Muslim call to prayer in a male voice. I thought "wait, my mom's not Muslim..." and realized I was dreaming. Then I woke up to the sound of the call to prayer from the loudspeakers of the mosque across the street from my hostel.

Practice mostly. Most of the time the waking up comes from being too excited about the lucidity. Eventually you should be able to keep yourself calm and stay in the dream.

Another one is to check the time, look away, and check the time again. In real life the time would be the same, with a slight possibility of skipping ahead 1 minute. In a dream, it sometimes displays an entirely different time.

It does, and that's how I learned to have lucid dreams. What I figured out is that if I'm really not sure whether I'm dreaming then I definitely am. You might be able to intellectually entertain the notion that you're dreaming right now, but you still intuitively know you aren't. In a dream you aren't sure. Convince yourself of that truth and you can control your dream and have sex with everyone for 15 seconds until your brain activity wakes you up.

count your fingers. If you count 5, you're awake, if you keep on counting forever it's a dream!
This works because in a dream state your brain can only focus on imagining one finger at a time, but not the whole hand at once while counting them. So when you go from one finger to the next you just imagine a new finger instead of counting one that's there, so you can count to infinity.

I actually lucid dream relatively often, and it might be weird, but I find it irritating.

Lucid dreaming is like playing that moment in a videogame, and then enabling every cheat the console has. It's no longer fun. It's just me trying to get the dream to 'flip' so I forget that I'm lucid dreaming and can move on.

How many hours would be good enough to determine some doors level lf authority though?
I can read a single biographical account of Napoleon in a month and then suddenly I'm more of an authority on the subject than 99% of the population.

The3rdWorld ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:35:54 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
i dunno if history quite works like that, you'd be missing out on a lot of nuance and background understanding when reading Napoleon's biography, for example his part in the suppression of Royalist rebels at the 13 Vendรฉmiaire battle might get at best a chapter but certainly not enough time to detail the back-story of the Armรฉe catholique et royale or much of the situation in Paris and France at the time so that when you read of that famous Whiff of Grapeshot you're hearing about it in somewhat of a vacuum and thus the conclusions you draw are less accurate and less sure.
Further is the Historical method, we have to understand that each piece of information has been derived, transported and polished before reaching us - who is writing this book, what are their general opinions on the evens and politics of the age? Karl Marx and Milton Freedman would write very different histories of the industrial revolution for example, not only do we have to understand bias in the person presenting it to us but to understand the school of study they belong to and the likely biases involved in their methods...
Math on the other hand is quite straight forward, recently I needed to understand how to balance algebraic equations for a programming project I was doing so I downloaded a free app on my phone and followed the instructions, did some exercises and examples a few times until it was locked in to my memory and now I'm perfectly capable of doing basic algebra - literally perfectly capable in that there is absolutely no difference in the answer i will provide with the answer Steven Hawking would provide, I could teach someone else and they'd gain this same ability.
So I think that in this regard subjective forms of understanding are much harder subjects to master, if we're going to determine how qualified someone is to speak then we certainly need to determine if they're delivering an actual fact or a subjective opinion.
Possibly the best truthiness display would be one which includes how much of a fact something is or how possible it is for someone to know that - for example if I tell you that in the bible the word Hashmallim appears in the bible exactly once then this is a fact which is fairly easy for me to have established, you could check it yourself with the inclination however if I then said that in biblical times this word was part of a secret code used by a pre-biblical society of which no record remains then you'd quite rightly say 'how could you possible know that then?!' So a knowability bar which turns green if something is both a fact and a true fact.
Subjective opinions we'd then need the bar showing the scope of their background knowledge, their level of bias and intent - someone might know loads about a subject but have conveniently forgotten to mention all possible counterarguments they know until the morning after Brexit... This isn't because they didn't know or were biased in their learning it's because they're tory cunts.

If it does, you can't divide by zero, so it would need to be undefined.

It would never be infinity. A finite number divided by zero is also undefined, never zero. It would be 1 (same number of kills as deaths) until you kill the first spider, then it would become undefined, then when you die you get a number.

A friend of a friend got bitten by a brown recluse, and when he went to the ER they assumed he just had the flu or something.
I think a day later he returned and after running some tests they airlifted him to Harborview in Seattle, amputated both legs, and performed open heart surgery.
After a couple of weeks doctors noticed that a stitch was missed during the heart surgery and a bubble formed that had to be removed. It burst during the second operation and he died.

As someone who went trough something similar, I totally agree.

All I want to do is have fun with friends, and its a constant fight to go to work every day.

I really like this one. It changes depending on how the rules of the universe work though. If fate is a thing and we don't really have a choice in what we do it'd just be a constant number and your life would be the same with a number displayed on your retinas, boring.
The much more interesting approach is the undetermined future. Every choice you make would change the timer, and every choice everyone else makes could change it too. Example: Your clock changes to hours one day as you walk on the bus. You either get out and get a new time or you walk on and that guy that would have run into your bus suddenly realized he forgot his wallet at home, changing the timer again. The time would fluctuate like crazy all the time. It'd be interesting to know how close you'd come to death every day, and you could possibly avoid a lot of things by getting a heads up like that. Say I hire a hitman to kill me if I don't win the lottery(or some other gamble or bet, probably something easier to bruteforce than a lottery ticket) and keep changing it until the time displayed my desired number. You'd be able to do all sorts of weird stuff with a device like that.

Really? Dude, that'd be awesome early on (would suck balls later though). You'd know that, barring you doing something stupid or having an unforeseen accident, no sickness will kill you. Though you'd likely die of something before that clock ran out.
Unless it's tied to destiny somehow and not your bodies genetic clock, then you'd have the luxury of knowing NOTHING could kill you until that clock ran out... Which isn't necessarily a good thing.

A stamina meter.
I'm not in fantastic shape and I've hated running since I was a kid. I think if I had a meter that would tell me "No dude, you aren't really about to pass out, you have like 60% stamina left and just don't like running." I might do a bit better job of getting in shape and could hate exercising less.

I've heard Navy SEALS have a concept that they refer to as the 40% rule. They say that when your brain tells you you can't go any further or do anything more, your body is actually 40% done and you have much more left.
That said, don't go getting heat exhaustion or rhabdo or anything.

I often wonder how far I could run, or how fast I could run a mile, or whatever, if I ignored the pain and discomfort and just did it to my maximum ability, even if it meant passing out exactly at the end.
Not going to try it though.

Yes! Also a pain meter telling you if the pain is indicative of something serious or if it's nothing to worry about. I have a hard time telling the difference when working out. Worrying about what pain means gets to my head before the raw pain ever does.

-An encouraging message tailored to my current negative self-talk
-An ADHD text that pops up when I am distracted from my immediate task. Driving to the grocery store, but am distracted by a yard sale - popup "You are heading to the grocery store because you are out of milk. Do not turn right."
Of course, it would have an override switch.
-At IKEA - "The items in your cart total $137. X items were not on your original list. Items a, b & c you already own. Items m, l, n are the wrong size for your intended usage. Items p, q, r are there due to impulse and are not really needed."
After each question, I give an answer on whether I really want those items or not. Removing them from the cart results in minions cheering for good decision.
-Also, it would show me my bank account balance, my credit card balance and normal bill costs. THEN each time I put an item in my cart, it would reduce the account balance. Next, recalculate the balance of my credit cards to show how much lower they would be if I put that amount towards the balance.
-Same thing with my weight when I pick up something to eat.
For a reward when I make a healthy choice, I get to see a gift or pic from /r/awww.

If you have never watched the TV show IMpractical JOkers - jump on and watch it. I had surgery a few years ago, and for some reason the anesthesia sent me down into a very dark place full of despair and hopelessness.
He downloaded those for me, and it really got me through hard times. I had just had abdominal surgery, so I could only watch a few minutes at a time b/c I was laughing, but so worth it.

You definitely don't want that. Most of the time a persons thoughts just sort of bounce around unless they're concentrating on something, and while they're bouncing, some very unsavory thoughts can come in. Ones that they may not even believe, but just happened to cross their mind. Things like "damn /u/Tiurpslen, did you even look at those shorts before you put them on this morning? NASTY". They may not think that about you at all, but you wouldn't know that. I can't tell you how many times I've had terrible intrusive thoughts like "just fucking stab him, he'll never see it coming" when I'm not even remotely mad at the guy next to me.

There are a lot of good options and some of these responses are cute but I'm going to go with hydration level. That's something that's always good to monitor, difficult to read, and causes problems when it's wrong. How much have I sweat? Did that salty food throw off my balance? Will drinking water make me feel better or do I feel off for some other reason?
Aside from that MMOs have a good thing going. Minimaps are amazing when well implemented so I'd want that 24/7 too. Clock. Nametags and affiliations for people. Some other body status indicators (ooh, time till desire to urinate would be handy). A lot of the responses here are good for part of the day but useless while watching netflix and junk.

If you know what time it is, you can find your direction easily.
Find the sun and point the hour hand of your watch at it. In the northern hemisphere, south bisects the angle between the hour hand and 12. (Or north in the southern hemisphere.)
If you don't have an analog watch, pretend that you do.
If you don't know the time, ask.
If it's dark, go to a pub and wait until it's light out.

Daily calories consumed.
Counting calories is maybe the worst part of dieting, and involves so much guesstimating that at best you're getting a broad ballpark that's almost always skewed low. Knowing exactly how many calories you eat as you eat them, along with a running total of your daily intake, would be amazing.

Being able to see that without stabbing myself and dribbling blood on an expensive one-use plastic scrap would be fantastic.

My life "sustainability" ratio. If I'm doing something that I can't keep up - staying awake too long each night, working a job that's killing me, or spending too much money each day - the ratio falls below 1 and I have to make appropriate changes to bring it back up. If I make positive choices like consistently eating healthier or performing well in a sustainable job, the ratio goes above 1 and I know to keep doing what I'm doing.
Just having that one single measurement of how well I'm doing "my thing" would save me a world of hurt.

If life had a hud? Life should have a hud!
The problem is that life isn't a a game, so lets brainstorm some ideas for a hud system that would work with the RL game engine we have.
Howbout a quest tracker? Fallout has that and it's pretty simple. I need to be able to offload my brainload so I can Pokemon Go in peace, but damn if that email doesn't sent, there will be hell to pay. A post-it note on the edge of my vision to keep me on track, or a simple grocery list; a quest tracker would help me keep my immediate goals in hand.
What about a map? Pokemon Go has me with my phone out at all times, and now my mini-map is only as far as my left hand. Put that on the hud, make it integrate with my phone and let me see what's nearby using Google Maps.
Howbout driving? Between augmented reality routing (Saints Row 3) and a minimalistic oncoming roadsign display (Burnout Paradise) we could really help drivers pull away from their instrument panels, heck, throw in a spedometer for anyone with a need for speed
We use our cell phones for everything, but how much could be done with a simple hud? What is your primary clock? Chances are >50% you do not wear a watch, so let's cut out the daily seconds spent checking your phone.
A real life hud should exist, and there are plenty of practical applications for it. Give me an open source retina implant, and let's fix us some real life crimes of inefficiency.

Average spending per hour, 30 day average, monthly estimate based on this.
Calories ingested, calories spent, net balance 3 days.
Blood alcohol content.
Heart rate, pressure and temperature.
The nice thing is, this is technogically possible, we just need the intra-ocular HUD.

Nobody mentioned Wanted Level as featured in GTA so far.
But yeah, realtime medical data or physical training data would be awesome. Also physics analysis, like when you throw a basketball through the hoop, it shows you the trajectory, the throwing angle, the max height, the spin ratio, etc. - great learning feedback for improving exercises.

I want a target finder but instead of finding hostiles I can filter it to find whatever I need at that time..
Horny- focuses on girls willing to hookup Hungry- places/people who have food Need Money- places/people to steal from with no chance of getting caught
and since this got very criminal very fast, it might as well have the Target Finder mode too since I'm now a prostitute fucking, sandwich stealing, successful bank robber:)

Heals per second. If I help someone it goes up for as long as it affects them, dropping little by little as it drifts out of their mind. If I say something comforting it goes up while they are comforted. Can also go negative if I end up annoying someone too much.

Also, a automated display of options I have on any situation to help nervous or quick decision making.

A relationship meter for whoever I was looking at, displaying the positivity/negativity of a relationship, along with the type. And you can toggle comments.
So like "97%: Friends. [Would take a bullet for you]
"67%: Dating. [It's not that they don't like you, but they're pretty much settling until something better comes along]
-20%: Employer. [Those sick days you keep taking around the releases of new games are getting noticed]
-100%: Wife. [What happened to you two? You must have been in love, at some point. Where did it all go wrong? It used to be passionate lovemaking and breakfast in bed. Now its endless nagging, arguments that end with her going to stay with her sister, and you're pretty sure she's banging Bob while you're at work. You both want a divorce, and you both know it, but you're just so deep in the rut and can't bring yourself to change your life like that because you're scared. Then there's the kids, and you don't even want to think about losing custody, but you know you would.]

-warning notifications if i eat too much/too little of something or if Im beginning to injure one of my body parts (i.e. running too much will injure my knees)
probably won't want this up 24/7, but the option to bring it up would be so fucking cool
edit: it would also be awesome to be able to transfer my daily data to a computer or app or something to document it all. kind of like a built in Strava for my body.

And hey if I get tired of the ads for only $247 more a month I can upgrade to the gold edition which removes the ads and gives me cool and useful features like custom clock designs and new skins for my waypoint that I never use. Also I would love to have my GPS setting reset every morning without telling me - because turning off tracking clearly means that I want comcast to know where I am. Oh and most importantly, I could go without all of that as long as I have wonky night-vision - and don't let me adjust it myself when it is strobe-lighting me while I'm driving; can't have me accidentally damaging my precious

And then the sad reality of watching it decline, and having no real idea of how to make it move forward, because all you've been told is moving it, slowly but surely, into the triple, and then the inescapable quintuple negatives (assuming it uses a non-decimal system, and points being given in a minimalistic sense, not 10's at a time)

[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:57:26 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
That would imply that it's easy to balance karma, and actions don't merit much worth. In truth, seeing a number, coloured to boot, positive and negative, maybe some sense of bar, indicating the lowest karma someone currently has, and the highest, placing your little arrow, showing your karma, relative to theirs, while showing overall karma, central being zero/neutral. From green to red, or whatever colour is fitting/pre-set. but the highest and lowest would be constantly shifting to match their respective bearers. On top of which, would imply both the highest and lowest don't have to be even, let's face it, they're reflecting a persons karma, not overall, meaning both sides and increase and decrease, based on the values held at the time.
Or did I just blow your mind?

Yeah... But again, that implies it becomes easy to balance. It might be easier on a day by day basis, but not a collective of your overall karma. So, the idea does require an overall measurement actually makes it more functional. I'm not saying it should be like a leaderboard, but, more of an overall balance, so you can see where you stand, allowing yourself to become a far better person

Who was thinking about me and, briefly, why. Assuming everyone has a HUD, we can assume there is a way to tap into people's bodies, and probably thoughts. Id like to see a pic of who was thinking about me and something like "Misses You" or "Thinking about what Birthday present to get you." Then you can close the notification. Specific I know but it's my answer.

Everyone wants health related things? Well, if I had a personal HUD I'd just always have the time on. What else, do you really need to always be aware of?
While driving I'd also like the velocimeter to be on my HUD, I guess. But that's not always on.
I guess a minimap would also make sense. With the way to your destination traced on the map. But I might turn that off if I'm not going anywhere.
I figure the cool thing about a HUD would be the possibility of constant change. You see someone and you can check if you're mistaken or you really do know them. Perhaps put an alarm so it tells you when a friend is spotted. That'd be cool, but not ''always on''.
PaulJP ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 04:09:57 on August 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Something like Fallout 4's HP bar - where you have a traditional health bar, with an indicator of how much lower your max is due to radiation damage. For real life it would just be other ailments instead of only radiation damage, like sleep deprivation, BMI, smoking, being poisoned, etc. with things that heal naturally, like a sprain or a cut, being from the main "health" pool.
E.g. currently at 80%, but 20% is "blocked" due to other factors, so you're as healthy as you can be right now, but you could be healthier if you fixed some of the long-term issues. It would also indicate just how badly the long-term stuff is affecting you ("eh, not getting enough sleep is only knocking 5% off, but I'm hitting more milestones elsewhere to make up for it.").

Heart rate, blood pressure, calories in/out, step counter, route guidance, a tactical overlay that highlights possible threats like guns, knives, blunt objects, aggressive driving and collision prediction, that look at you with malice or something, wanted criminals, etc.
That'd be a good start I think. You'd want to be able to change the program based in activities as well. Driving would have its own functions for speed, guidance, fuel economy, vehicle health etc. White water rafting could analyze currents and provide guidance. Emergency subroutines could be always on but only activate when in certain conditions. In a fire it could give you escape routes based on temperature and co2 readings. If you're being attacked or mugged it would highlight possible weapons.
You could even have subroutines for sports. Analyzing a line of scrimmage or ball trajectory. Display wind speed and direction calculate angles and driving force. The possibilities are endless.

so if I lose my phone and I'm trying to catch a ride I can just go "marker: ride" and head their way to get picked up faster, or that kind of thing.
also kind of want to know exactly where my wastes go when I flush them, I'd probably use it that way a few times.

I'd always try to stay in the middle which would be the optimum amount of stress to be active. Maybe another one to let me know when I'm near a threshold to develop depression just to do more self care stuff and not take on more responsibility at that time.

Red = Anger/Frustration Blue = Sad/Depressed Green = Jealous Indigo = Excited Purple = Horny Pink = Enamored Orange = Embarrassed/Ashamed Yellow = Happy/Jubilant Violet = Tired/Exhausted Brown = Incredibly annoyed that the colors listed above aren't in the proper order

Nothing sucks more than getting caught off guard stuck in traffic on the highway with that spicy water type.....
Couldn't hurt to have a little sub bar with a readout on what your next farts going to be like too, you know like, is it going to pass unnoticed or will it drop a grown human to its knees a.k.a is it safe to drop this here or should I wait.

If we can have magical huds that can tell what conversation choices we can have, I'd rather go full cyborg and get a a "quick metabolize alcohol" hud interface. Let also have said button get bigger with my alcohol content. Maybe have it be snarky too. Like, "dude, seriously, quick metabolize your alcohol" and then "METABOLIZE ALCOHOL!!" when it gets to dangerous territory or I can see my car in any way. Actually, maybe that should just be automated.

Object finder: How close am I to the object I'm looking for, in meters (metric system), from my right hand.
It can go down to decimals, but I'd settle for it to only go down to 1m. Searching for an object in 1m3 is a lot easier than in your whole house.
Extra : when looking for someone, the object I'm looking for is their phone.
Extra 2: It doesn't have to be specific. "Looking for the switch for this light" or "looking for a glass" in a house, or "Find the case of beer that contains the tickets to win a prize".

Making your finger and thumb like a gun visually simulates a gun in your hand, and your friends can do this too. You can arm yourself with a grenade by holding an apple. You can arm yourself with an M-16 by holding an umbrella. But the game system doesn't work unless you make BANG BANG noises.

A hint/tooltip pop up that provides additional information about what I'm looking at/the current situation. So taking a test or trying to solve a money problem it pops up with the relevant formula or a relevant suggestion to come up with the money.
Seriously, a little tip next to everything in life could make me so much more successful.

I would like to see a golden brick road in front of me highlighting the most beneficial path. Tips pop up about best modes of locomotion for each situation. There are guide pointers to various points of interest and necessary tasks. All the good people have a golden halo above their heads and tips pop up on how best to help them and how best to learn from them. All the bad people have huge devil horns and tips pop up about how best to hustle them and how best to vanquish them.

A HUD sucks, I'd opt for a HOBS.
For the info, I'd go for the usual speed, altitude and coordinates, also something that indicates my current ability to do sports, like "energy available", blood oxygen, pressure, heart rate and an indicator for when I'm close to straining a muscle or tendon. Master caution "button" should be included.
Edit: and the option to do a bunch of BITs in case of aches or pains and display the results.

Heartrate monitor, with colors depending on severity or risk of some kind of problem. Also, WAY more post-processing esque effects. Had a good meal? Vision turns a warm orange for a moment. Suffered an injury? Pain dependent severity on how vision would be impacted, such as amount of red, blurring, tunnel vision, etc. Just healed said wound? Vision goes a minty green with a bit of extra contrast. Vision progressively losing color on the scale of completely conscious to completely unconscious.
Maybe it's just me, I like that kind of stuff. Visual feedback is really neat.

It'd be cool to have a HUD which shows the amount of time you have till your death. Like a death timer. You'll learn to value time more and spend each moment in that limited life doing the things you love. Although, it would get scary when the timer gets closer to zero and you know you're going to die soon.

The amount of calories I need to take in daily and updates how many I've taken in. Same thing with fats, carbs, and protein. And for an added bonus if marks if I'm in danger and shows an icon of what exactly in in danger of (i.e. Gun if in danger of being shot, animal for animal attack, nuclear warhead for incoming nuclear world war that'll leave the world in ruins, etc).

A health display, monitoring specific organs and structures so if I'm injured I know what to do about it. Blood capacity %, drugs, toxicity, and hormone levels would be also be nice.

I'd probably have to go with a nope display, even levels of nope....like brown recluse spider nope level would be "light everything on fire" level of nope. Avoiding a disastrous person whom has romantic interest in you could be "don't fuck crazy" level of nope. Perhaps the crazy elderly neighbor could be "do you want to hear about cats for 3 hours" nope level. If the nope isn't averted, it displays solutions to the nope as the situation evolves.

A small summary of your daily nutrition, like a small wheel of coloured segments that changed from green to red, depending on how much of your daily quota you've consumed of fat, salt, etc and a percentage calories total of the daily target. If you look at food or drink, the on-board AI would identify it and animate the changes to that wheel and percentage allowance. Sort of a diet wing-buddy or bitching Betty, if you like.
It could also nag you to eat more specific foods and supplements as the AI would know what you'd eaten and where the nutritional gaps where.

Checking on a single person i could have a complete history and every possible information about them. such as personal information, bank accounts, rpg characteristics (stamina, dexterity), their life history log, what person they are, felonies records and even secrets and feelings. The hud would also allow me to interact with them and provide me the best decision path based on all the above information and personality to manipulate them if i wanted so, like make someone through a simple conversation to hand me over his ferrari and be happy about it, get that blonde chick to get an abortion without falling apart emotionally etc.

Seriously though, I find the idea of a hud really odd. Like, of course it works on a computer game, but I can't quite picture in my own head how it would look...
On the computer you focus on individual things - like an enemy, then you focus on the minimap, then you focus on your ammo... So I find it strange "focusing" to the bottom left and seeing health for example - like would it be on your peripheral vision or what?

I'm torn between a bar which is simply current motivation levels and something that tracks diseases. I feel like knowing my current motivation would be amazing for productivity (as well as figuring out what keeps me motivated) but being able to tell when I am sick, or someone else is would be great. I'd also make random hook ups much safer.

I work in transportation for a company that transports the elderly and people with disabilities.
I'd love a minimap display with icons indicating where I need to go like GTA; arrows pointing to where I need to go and to have the destinations outlined like in Crazy Taxi; maybe have the route I need to take illuminated with a line on the pavement like in some racing games.
Other things I'd like to see would be to have calm, gentle music play when I'm in safe areas and then when I enter a dangerous area, the music fades into tense warning music so I know immediately I should go somewhere else or prepare for battle.
โข A health status bar โข Body map with indicators as to where I hurt or what needs medical attention โข List of objectives โข Overlay that would give me names of businesses, locations, and people's names when I looked directly at them โข Access to Wikipedia and Wolfram Alpha so if I need more information, it can show up in the corner of the screen when it

It would be kind of cool to have an inebriation meter. It could be as simple looking as a rev counter or on a car or something. Green is sober and then the further toward red the arrow goes, the worse off you are.
It would be useful for showing you that its time to hail a cab and go home because you are just far too drunk to be around other people without grossing them out or making them want to fight you.
It would be especially useful for me because i am someone who is very bad at smoking weed. I could do just enough to where I am having an okay time rather than overdoing it and getting so high that I am too afraid to go upstairs where my room is..
It would also enable me to do it socially like some people do. I could take a few hits with them to show that I'm not a cop or something and would not have to worry about trapping myself in my own eternal prison for a few hours and having to call an uber home because I am "way too high, clearly having a very bad time and should probably just go home and go to sleep because you are freaking everyone out"

An indicator summarizing my current "distraction level" or "focus level". It would be neat to have immediate feedback telling me when my focus is wavering, so I can figure out what it is that's drawing me away from my task.

I would want a bullshit meter. Whenever someone puts me down, screws me over, or life just generally sucks, it fills up a little. Naturally throughout the course of the day it gradually fills a bit just from being awake. At the end of the day I can see if today was really so bad or not. I'd be able to look over my history and see how things have been over the course of a week/month/year/life and also make estimates for the future.

Calendar alerts with map integration (including ETA and a little blinky dot thing for the person I'm meeting/meeting place). Generally I'm OK at keeping my appointments in my head, but I'm terrible with directions and I always end up arriving at places at least 20 minutes early just out of fear of getting lost and becoming late as a result.
Also, in general, having map/quest markers on my life HUD would be super-useful for going out on runs; I hate having to stop or slow down on a new route to figure out where the next relevant bus stop/Tube/road that would let me loop back home is.

Some kind of skill point tree/system would be great. I don't really know if it only counts as one thing, but imagine reading a book and getting a INT lv up, now you can choose to read books 20% faster, choose to lv up faster in whatever the book was about or speech checks that have something to do with this book are 50% more effective

A map with fast travel options for locations I frequent. I wouldn't teleport, it would be more like an autopilot taking over, and just taking the fastest route there. It would probably stop if someone starts talking to me though, or I get a call/text. Maybe also a skip function if the conversation is really boring, which again will put the autopilot on. Then it would wake me once it's over with a general summary of what we talked about.
I just realized the autopilot concept really isn't relevant to "What would your HUD display?", but I've put way too much effort into this, so fuck it.

Definitely an indepth health log so I know my salt intake, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, what vitamins I'm lacking in, whether something I'm about to consume is going to trigger my bowels, how fit I am etc. All colour coded and easy to brake down too. Obviously this would always have the basics on show so my view isn't clogged, but would be expandable for the details - like certain maps in games so you can zoom view it at the expense of everything else on the screen.

Kind of like on Skyrim when it shows you a threat nearby it would be cool to have a sort of map to show you which people are more dangerous than others, for example if you were walking to school and then you can see on the map the big red circle coming closer then you can try to find a way out. Or you could find out if your dad actually is a mass murderer. Just something like that.
On top of this, possibly a thought checker. Say, if you felt intimidated or scared and you had thoughts going through your head about what to do, you'd get a visual tick or cross next to the thought. Maybe though, instead of this, arrows to show safe places to go to or people to get help from.

I would love to have a sort of social HUD of how each person truly thinks of you and how certain decisions have affected their opinion on you. You could see the things that you do that annoy people the most and what they like about you. Also a little % symbol beside each of there name showing from 1-100 how attractive they think you are. Honestly if I had this life would be so much easier you could see if your an asshole or not. Here's a list of cool features I think it should have
โขFavourite memories- allowing you to know the persons fav memories of you good and bad. Like your friend Mark had a lot of fun chugging beer at the pub so that's a good memory that would be displayed. A bad memory would come up with the emotions the memory makes them feel. Every memory would have a scale of 1-10 on how much they think about it and how much it meant to them.
โขInterest- to make conversation flow easier (especially with a female) you could view the persons likes,dislikes and interests so you could relate to them and make the conversation one they'd like
โขMood- the mood of a person can greatly change how a conversation will go. Sometimes people are happy and want to talk to you for hours, other days they need to be left alone. A emoticon face displaying this would be easier to read then a persons actions. A happy face would mean their happy (obviously) a red anger face means there mad and a sad face means there sad (not complicated)
โขAnother cool feature which I'm not savvy enough to come up with a name for would be seeing how your life has impacted there's. I always wonder what my friends/family would be like if I was never born. Maybe your mother got a better sense of humour from your sarcastic nature and maybe your buddy Tom looks at the world differently because you introduced him into the horrors of the world.
โขAnother small feature I think would be cool is a bar that shows how much that person thinks of you. Maybe some people in your life have you on there mind 24/7 and you have no clue.
That's all I could think of atm, any comments adding to it would be awesome!
-side note, I don't think this would be the most practical as if everyone had this it would defeat the purpose but think of the opportunitys if you had this

My hud would give me the exact dialogue or actions I needed to say/do to get my desired result/get out of trouble, display names on command, instant diagnosis for any pain or physical issue and the remedy for it, list any STDs a possible sexual partner has, lists illegal things I can do for personal gain without getting caught and gps to the locations, location of the nearest weapon, and radar for hostiles, authority figures, and people I'm looking for.
Essentially a who/what/when/where/how to for literally anything in perfect detail, and harm avoidance.
Run for president, say and do all the right things, go on a crime spree, hook up with anyone safely, avoid assassination, steal expensive things without getting caught. achieve world peace, develop free energy, accelerate space travel, the possibilities are endless.
Edit: I've noticed this kinda borders on probability manipulation.
