And here we stumble upon the question of revolutionary change and legacy compatibility again :ablobcatbongo:

@tetrislife

It would require a lot of work as not all services support SAML. It would be nice too. Then there is the question as to how we would reconcile the different accounts people already have.

@QOTO

@QOTO I appreciate the variety of services qoto.org opens up (I appreciate nixnet, snopyta, ouvaton, disroot, frama* too). Becaise I also appreciate all-in-one solutions like Hubzilla and public hubs, I was wondering if the one log-in can be used for all of qoto.org's services.

Here is what a relatively shallow (170 feet / 52 meter) decompression dive looks like. Link of dive video along with dive profile statistics to get an idea of the depth along the way.

Some of you have been curious about my Cave diving expiernce. Here is a video of my first certified cave dive. I also attached a link to the dive profile, this one was a shallow dive, I'll try to post a deep-dive next.

My first cave dive following my cave certification https://video.qoto.org/videos/watch/adaa54df-809a-402d-84af-6d08c7906682

My uncle just finished 1.6 kg, 700 pages long dictionary of Northern Sami, a language spoken by around 20,000 speakers.

Sami are an indigenous people who have inhabited large parts of Northern Europe spanning from Russia to Norway for millenniums.

He has dedicated his life to advocate for their rights and preserve their languages and culture. This book is a major contribution in an effort to ensure that this ancient language will be passed on to future generations.

@vital876@mastodon.social only at first, as was I. The fear goes away with time which is part of why I got involved.

@vital876@mastodon.social makes things brighter :)

In all seriousness it is very bright and capable of handling extreme pressures. As a tec diver and cave diver it is essential as I dive to very dark places and easily hit 400 feet depth doing it.

I thought I lost mine but thankfully found it. But the fact that I spent so much on it is still a painful reminder :)

Here is a link to the light I use.

Man I forgot how expensive scuba was, 1,200$ just for a damn flash light, lol.

Mostly, endorphins are the class of hormones from the pituitary gland that interact with the bodies opioid receptors. So the reduction in stress and calming feeling one gets from a hug would mostly be due to endorphins. That said there are non-endorphins at play too most likely. Serotonin is likely involved for example as well.

If you ascend slowly and safely then it comes out of your blood the same way CO2 comes out, through your lungs and breath, you dont even notice it.

If however you come up too quickly, particularly if you do so extremely rapidly, then it can be extremely painful and you can die very quickly, though less severe cases can be slow and recoverable.

Usually int he severe cases your blood literally boils and you get tons of bubbles circulating through your blood. This can have many symptoms from a rash to cognitive issues, to trouble breathing. It can quickly cause you to go unconscious and die.

The only treatment is a bariatric chamber where you sit in a high pressure chamber with the gas content regulated for some hours while it slowly lowers the pressure. Assuming you can even get to one in time.

@robryk I cant read it anyhow without a translator. So I cant speak to its accuracy either.
