Post a picture showing the weather where you are now.

Same as yesterday max so far. Temp doesn't usually peak until 1pm-2pm. No, the sensor is not sitting on a brick in direct sun. It's under my verandah, well in the shade. -

Did fuk all for me. YMMV. The problem with gout is that by the time you are old enough to experience it you are also old enough to be on a blood thinner like Apixaban thus the usual NSAID analgesic/anti-inflammatory drugs can cause internal bleeding problems. https://www.abarcahealth.com/nsaids/

There's a bit of that going around at the moment.

Apple Air Tags - Worthwhile or Useless Accessory?
fygjam replied to john luke's topic in Mobile Devices
Scanning a few tech sites. The following is based on rumour and speculation. No company announcements. Google were working on their version over a year ago. These devices require a "private" network. i.e. a network of Apple phones or a network of Samsung devices. There is no global standard or network. When manufactures decide it's in their own interest to support devices from other manufacturers then maybe a universal standard will emerge and there will be interoperability. -

And you need to work up to the therapeutic dose or it can precipitate a flare.

And now for something completely different. Your bioeffluent. And that little cloud of CO2 you drag around with you. Just over a week ago on Friday evening an ad for this popped up in my Amazon things I should buy. A CO2 monitor. Order now and have it by Monday, how could I resist. Also $AU118, now over $AU40 more. I got in at the right time. That e-ink display got me. I thought it was just a sticker at first and was trying to work out how to remove it when the digits changed. Took it outside into the "sea breeze". Visitors to Perth wonder how a force 10 gale can be called a breeze but we're used to it. Read 416 ppm. I live about 10km from the coast and going west from the coast it's 8,000km till you reach Africa so not much/any pollution when the airflow is off the ocean. The average CO2 concentration for December was 417 ppm at the official climate measuring station. So pretty accurate. Inside but with the windows open and a couple of fans circulating the air I get about 430-450 ppm. Close the windows to keep the heat of the day out and that can rise to 650 ppm. At night in the bedroom, if I have the door shut and run the AC it can be over 800 ppm by morning. From the Canadian health department, suggested CO2 concentrations.

Gout can occur in any joint although typically but not exclusively in joints of the foot. Need a blood test to measure serum uric acid levels to confirm.

A few years ago I needed some fine salt but only had coarse sea salt. So I put a bit in the spice grinder, gave it a spin, then a bit more. Have you ever had salt with the consistency of icing sugar? ie. salt powder. On the other hand here's a lamp made out of a 7kg "grain" of salt. I don't think there's an SI unit for a grain of salt.

The great salt experiment. First off. How much salt. Science agrees, the human ability to detect salt varies widely. From 30mg/L to 460mg/L detecting salt in water. My cheap drug dealer milligram scales are broken. I made the mistake of putting the cheap drug dealer batteries that came with the scales into the scales. Naturally they leaked in a short time and stuffed the battery compartment. Secondly, science agrees again. In low (unspecified) concentrations, salt initially tastes sweet before tasting salty as the concentration increases. I did try a very small pinch of salt in a cup of tea. Couldn't detect any difference but without determining the amount of salt I'm flying blind.

If you can salt coffee why not salt tea. https://perfectdailygrind.com/2021/03/exploring-the-science-behind-adding-salt-to-coffee/ In both cases it is meant to reduce the bitterness of the caffeine and/or tannins that they contain. Haven't tried it myself but might give it a go.
