Oh crap, I see what you mean! Quite the confusing wording. Thank you.

But… the whole reason we are having this discussion is because people are trying to make the process less miserable in their final moments.

So did it feel like you just went to sleep and then woke up?

Glad you did such a terrible job of it!

Captain, in my comment that you just replied to, I quoted them literally saying that they are talking about nitrogen narcosis.

Yes, I did. Read my post.

They said:

Nitrogen narcosis happens to deep sea divers breathing compressed air, this would be straight up hypoxia, aka oxygen deprivation. Here’s what it does to your brain:

Nitrogen narcosis happens because when you are under pressure, like when underwater, gases are more easily dissolved. The nitrogen that is in your body dissolves into your tissues and basically anesthetizes you to death.

Nitrogen asphyxiation, like what we’re talking about here, is when the nitrogen that you breathe displaces the oxygen in your lungs. This causes the oxygen levels in your blood to drop, which is what kills you.

@protist is talking about nitrogen narcosis, which is a completely different thing.

As stated elsewhere, the discomfort that you feel what you’re being suffocated is not from lack of oxygen. It is from build up of carbon dioxide. When you are breathing nitrogen, you can still exhale that carbon dioxide. You don’t get that panicked feeling of needing a breath.

Nitrogen asphyxiation does not equal suffocation. It displaces the oxygen in your lungs. Discomfort from suffocation is from build up of carbon dioxide, not lack of oxygen. For the brief period of time that you are still conscious, you can still exhale that carbon dioxide.

Pearl clutching is an exaggerated outage. They didn’t even show any outrage. Just noted a fact.

Everything other than Debian :D

That wiki tho

I personally found Manjaro to be pretty nice, but i do have a lot of linux experience

How are people able to get through the captchas on that site? They never end for me.

Not sure how you can see any equivalence between necessary utilities and a space mission…

My personal disgust. It’s probably not as bad as I think though, in fact I’m hungry right now and it doesn’t sound nearly as bad.

It was difficult for me to not downvote this comment haha

Remind me not to fly whatever airline you’re using…

I think that you have come to the wrong conclusion here. People who can spend first class money are generally less likely to stab somebody just because they’re frustrated.

I have ridiculously long legs, and am uncomfortable every time I fly, but I have never felt the desire to assault anybody over it.

From the linked article:

King, who joined the U.S. Army in January 2021, faced two allegations of assault in South Korea, and eventually pleaded guilty to one instance of assault and destroying public property for damaging a police car during a profanity-laced tirade against Koreans, according to court documents. He was due to face more disciplinary measures when he arrived back in the United States.

Every alternative “milk” that I see at the store is clearly labeled “soy milk,” “oat milk,” etc. This is confusing to some people?
