Can you maybe clarify what you mean with “work”? What are you trying to achieve by significantly exceeding any supplemental recommendation that I’ve ever heard of?

Are you worried, that your Vitamin D3 levels are significantly too low, because you’re suffering e.g. from SAD, another mood- or an autoimmune disorder?

Talk to your doctor, get your levels checked, follow their advice and take the dose they recommend for the time they recommend!

Are you planning to relocate to a cave? Will you never see the sun again?

Talk to a medical professional about that plan, take whatever supplements they recommend for as long as they recommend them.

Are you living in a cold and dark country like Sweden? Then that country probably has safe guidelines you can follow. If you’re still worried or you are experiencing any symptoms that might be related to low Vitamin D3 levels, talk to a medical professional!

Why are you trying to exceed any recommended dosage by the factor of 10? Where did you get that number in the first place?

I believe that number is still low enough to not pose any immediate risk in the short or mid term. Your doctor might even agree that high supplementation is necessary to get your level up.

As a long term plan and without knowing your actual levels, it’s just stupid: At best it does nothing but waste your money on needless supplements. At worst it increases the risks that come with overdosing on Vitamin D3.

I know, you know, that I’m not telling the truth.

Don’t worry, Plasma 6 will default to half square and hat rounded instead.

Geeze, what an obvious sales pitch.

Try The Secret of Money Island instead, it’s much better than Loom. 😉

As an AI language model, I concur with this assessment.

It certainly doesn’t help that Lemmy had and still has absolutely no sensible way to actually surface niche communities to its subscribers. Unlike Reddit, it doesn’t weigh posts by their relative popularity within the community but only by total popularity/popularity within the instance. There’s also zero form of community grouping (like Reddit’s multireddits) - all of which effectively eliminates all niche communities from any sensible main view mode and floods those with shitty memes and even shittier politics only. This pretty much suffocated the initially enthusiastic niche tech communities I had subscribed to. They stood no chance to thrive and their untimely death was inevitable.

There are some very tepid attempts to remedy this in upcoming Lemmy builds, but I fear it’s too little too late.

I fear that Lemmy was simply nowhere near mature enough when it mattered and it has been slowly bleeding users and content ever since. I sincerely hope I’m wrong, though.

Boost is the reason I’m contributing to this community.

The ball gag is for the “Ommms” not to bother the neighbors …

Same here. One of the biggest issues is that Lemmy is currently terrible at surfacing content from niche communities: no weighted activity, no “multi-reddit-syle” community grouping - pretty much any main view mode is dominated by a few large communities only. This makes the death of the small communities a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The next version of Lemmy is making some very tepid improvements in that regard, but it’s nowhere near enough.

A stupid dystopia.

Even if we ignore the whole “planning a Star Wars inspired regicide to impress an AI” part, trying to assassinate a 95-year-old is just a dumb race against time.

Unlike e.g. vitamin C, excess vitamin D isn’t really excreted. It’s stored long term and eventually causes hypercalcemia and kidney stones if persistently supplemented at high doses over a long time. OP’s dosage is above the “sensible if you never see the sun” range but not quite in the “dangerously excessive” range.

As someone with “founder” status in both services, Stadia’s user experience was far better. It also had the best latency with its direct connect controllers.

While GeForce Now made some steps towards mitigation and cooperation, with 2FA it’s often still a mess of tediously logging into PC launchers before finally being able to play. And because the hardware changes every time, this repeats before every session.

GFN’s library of compatible games is still stupidly limited, yet has all remaining competitors beat by a wide margin. And it has by far the most powerful hardware.

Both of those things probably make it the best streaming service right now, and outweigh the shortcomings. But “good” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

Yes, Drillisch is one of the companies currently simply ignoring the law. They will probably continue to do so until they get successfully sued and/or fined into compliance.

Thanks. Looks like Boost still has some kinks, I got timeout messages for the first two attempts and they weren’t shown to me either.

Damn, thanks for the info. I used Boost, it told me it failed/timed out the first two times and only displayed the third, successful, attempt.
