  • It also really depends where the tumor is located. If its higher up in the colon, then the blood will be darker. But if it's more to towards the end or the sigmoid it can still be red.

    I have IBD and it's located in the sigmoid. My stool can be pretty damn red sometimes

  • This can give you an indication, but it has flaws. For example I live in Utrecht and this map counts a lot of empty farmers land as parts of Utrecht. So in the overview it looks as if Utrecht has bad accessibility, but if you zoom in and take a look at the actual urban areas you'll see that they have very good access to services.

    If you look at Paris for example, most regions they count as city are indeed urban areas.

    Also it counts Ijsselstein en Nieuwegein as parts of Utrecht, even though they are separate cities. But I get why they did that.

  • Proton offers the service of downloading most APK's directly from their website, bypassing the play store. They do this to help people get their apps in countries where it isn't accessible. Take a look at protonapps.com and they also have a lot of information on how to set up their apps on different operating systems

  • To be fair, the Fairphone is not the greatest in terms of specs, its more middle of the road but on the expensive side. But its has a way longer life. So I get that you want to think on it, because it's more of a commitment to justify the cost

    I'd say the paid plan is definitely worth it. The VPN is awesome. Very fast and with a lot of servers around the world. The drive is solid and they keep adding more features like automatic backup for you photos and secure file sharing. Lately they added a Docs to the drive, similar to google docs.

    I have a family plan with my wife and brother in law and we share the costs, that makes it even more worth it.

  • I use a Fairphone with e/os, which works fairly well as an os. Regular updates and they listen to user feedback. And e/os has an app lounge where you can download apps from the play store (without a google account) and f-droid, which is very easy. And the fairphone is great with interchangeable parts.

    For maps I use a combo of organic maps and Magic earth. Magic Earth isn't Foss but is privacy focused and has traffic alerts for driving.

    YouTube - Newpipe

    And for mail, passwordmanager, VPN, calendar, and drive I use Proton.

  • The transfer into proton is indeed very easy and with their family pack you also get Mail, Drive, VPN, Calendar and they keep working on adding more. Very happy with proton and their fight for privacy

  • With his second strikeout Tuesday, he surpassed the Phillies’ José Alvarado for the most strikeouts in a row by a pitcher since at least 1961. (Play-by-play data isn’t fully available before then, so it’s impossible to know the all-time record.) Estrada finished the night by tacking on a 13th straight, for good measure.

    Estrada was at his own birthday dinner in early November when he received a call from his agent letting him know he’d been placed on outright waivers by the Cubs. His 2023 season, in no uncertain terms, was a rough one. Between Triple-A and the Majors, Estrada walked an unsightly 38 batters across 39 1/3 innings. A few days later, he was claimed by the Padres.

    “We knew the stuff was there,” pitching coach Ruben Niebla said. “It was just a matter of how consistent he can be in the zone.”

    Now? It feels like Estrada lives in the strike zone, with a 7-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio this season. All it took was a mechanical overhaul and a complete reinvention of his two offspeed pitches. No biggie.

    MLB incorporates Negro Leagues statistics, shakes up record books

    Josh Gibson became Major League Baseball's career leader with a .372 batting average, surpassing Ty Cobb's .367, when Negro Leagues records for more than 2,300 players were incorporated Tuesday after a three-year research project.

    Gibson's .466 average for the 1943 Homestead Grays became the season standard, followed by Charlie "Chino" Smith's .451 for the 1929 New York Lincoln Giants. They overtook the .440 by Hugh Duffy for the National League's Boston team in 1894.

    Gibson also became the career leader in slugging percentage (.718) and OPS (1.177), moving ahead of Babe Ruth (.690 and 1.164).

    "This initiative is focused on ensuring that future generations of fans have access to the statistics and milestones of all those who made the Negro Leagues possible," baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement. "Their accomplishments on the field will be a gateway to broader learning about this triumph in American history and the path that led to Jackie Robinson's 1947 Dodger debu

    MLB umpire Ángel Hernández retiring after 3 decades

    MLB umpire Ángel Hernández retiring after 3 decades

    MLB umpire Ángel Hernández is retiring effective immediately, ending a controversial three-decade-long career that in recent years turned Hernández into a source of consternation with players and a punching bag among fans on social media.

    The 62-year-old Hernández, who in a statement confirmed earlier reports he would be retiring, reached a settlement to leave Major League Baseball, according to a source, and will leave after umpiring thousands of games since his debut in 1991.

    Hernández, who worked his last game May 9 and was replaced on Lance Barksdale's crew by Jacob Metz, sued MLB in 2017, alleging the league had engaged in racial discrimination. The lawsuit was thrown out by a district court judge, a decision upheld by an appeals court last year.

    An automated ball-strike system may be headed to Major League Baseball sometime in the future, but any such changes are unlikely to take place by the 2025 season.

    Commissioner Rob Manfred, speaking after the conclusion of the owners meetings at MLB’s offices in midtown Manhattan, said that some “issues” remain in the Minor Leagues, likely delaying the installment of the system -- widely known as ABS -- until at least 2026.

    “We still have some technical issues; I don't mean technology, I mean technical issues in terms of the operation of the system,” Manfred said. “We haven't made as much progress in the Minor Leagues this year as we hoped at this point. I think it's becoming more and more likely that this will not be a go for ’25.

    “One thing we did learn with the changes that we went through last year is taking the extra time to make sure you have it right is definitely the best approach. I think we're going to use that same approach here.”

  • Like others have said, usually there's a bolt on the underside, but I have trouble seeing it in this picture. In some faucets (also some Grohe) there's an Allen inside the faucet. Remove the spout by loosening the ring around the spout and there should be a threaded rod in which fits an Allen key.

  • That's ridiculous. Baseball should always come before work. Someone should get a firm talking to.

    I don't really see the point in using the helmet anyway, besides that it's funny. Maybe you get a little more extension, but it just seems risky
