Thanks for the thoughtful answer!

I too like to partake into cynical sarcastic self loathing , at times.

And I do like the layered ambiguity to whom your comment is addressed.

Sounds like you just want an snswer.

Well, I'm not a brain surgeon. So, I don't take myself as qualified to make that risk assessment. I agree that all you said up to 'without consent' is a very reasonable starting point to think about it, the answer to it should be made by whomever is qualified to answer it.

As for consent, no pacirnt gives direct consent to who's in/helping the surgery besides the head surgeon. Why do you claim its need in this case?

Thank you for your comment. It realy helped me decide on the clickbaiteness of the posted link.

Abstract

Most of the widely used vaginal lubricants in the U.S. and Europe are strongly hyperosmolal, formulated with high concentrations of glycerol, propylene glycol, polyquaternary compounds or other ingredients that make these lubricants 4 to 30 times the osmolality of healthy vaginal fluid. Hyperosmolal formulations have been shown to cause marked toxicity to human colorectal epithelia in vivo, and significantly increase vaginal transmission of genital herpes infections in the mouse/HSV model. They also cause toxicity to explants of vaginal epithelia, to cultured vaginal epithelial cells, and increase susceptibility to HIV in target cells in cell cultures. Here, we report that the osmolality of healthy vaginal fluid is 370 ± 40 mOsm/Kg in women with Nugent scores 0–3, and that a well-characterized three-dimensional human vaginal epithelium tissue model demonstrated that vaginal lubricants with osmolality greater than 4 times that of vaginal fluid (>1500 mOsm/Kg) markedly reduce epithelial barrier properties and showed damage in tissue structure. Four out of four such lubricants caused disruption in the parabasal and basal layers of cells as observed by histological analysis and reduced barrier integrity as measured by trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER). No epithelial damage to these layers was observed for hypo- and iso-osmolal lubricants with osmolality of <400 mOsm/Kg. The results confirm extensive reports of safety concerns of hyperosmolal lubricants and suggest the usefulness of reconstructed in vitro vaginal tissue models for assessing safety of lubricants in the absence of direct clinical tests in humans.

Have you forgotten. '/s' ?

Yes!

My Xiaomi Redmi 11 keeps telling me the Calculator can't use the network (why?) and keeps asking me to accept the privacy policy.

Also the app wallpaper - the one that changes the locked screen background image (important complex stuff /s) - also keeps asking me to accept the privacy policy.

And, as far as my reading of the policy goes, these privacy policies are just the one, it's not a different one for each app.

Can Nuclear plant electricity production be run in a decentralised way? No?! Not yet!?

Do we have alternatives to nuclear? Yes!?

We should avoid nuclear then.

Sure, sure.

Do they also know who's in fact going to go and cat the vote?

[–] Francisco@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

They are just serving those who can claim back the ticket money. Mostly, you know, those that use your money to pay those tickets.

 

I've been trying to venture into using PeerTube more -- as a watcher. But, so far, I haven't seen how to 'explore' for different videos.

What is the default sort order of the videos from Peertube instances?

And, is there a way of pooling of the videos from different instances?

Love the app, anyway.

Thank you Devs for all the effort and great app!
