Reading that as "I can't remember, I'm afraid" gave it a different feeling.

Definitely prefer the "lay thine eyes upon it and see that it lay barren" version.

Thanks for those links, some good reads there.

Revamped install for Piped in c/selfhosted
[–] lambchop 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I tried running both invidious and piped in docker behind an existing nginx. Invidious was so easy, 1 and done. My main issue with piped was piped running its own nginx, and it just returning a unconfigured landing page. After battling it I got the front end working by bypassing their nginx but it wouldn't talk to my piped back end, as soon as I pointed the front end at a public backend the option to point to mine disappeared. I'll try this installer and see how it goes.

What is the most unhelpful advice you have received? in c/[email protected]

It bugs me when told "nothing you can do" what they really mean is "the problem is chronic so the recovery will take a long time. Patient compliance is often very low and most people won't last the months required for a solution so I'm not going to waste my time. I can help more people if I focus my efforts elsewhere." If you're willing to put in the time, you can fix this. And I suggest you do, if you do nothing impingement inflames each time it happens, decreasing the space in your shoulder, increasing the likelihood, etc.

I saw a physio, they gave me some exercises which didn't help. I did a bunch of reading online and followed that advice and it worked.

  1. sleeper stretch
  2. external rotations from a stretched position, or sleeper stretch repetitions while holding a 2-4kg dumbbell
  3. serratus strengthening exercises

I had quite bad impingement from months of poor exercise selection at the gym. Changed the routine to be balanced internal/external rotation, did 1/2 above 1-2 times a day. Took a few months but now it's completely better. I still do the stretching as a prehab now.

Strange, my friend got that when a teenager and doctors said yup, that's chicken pox round 2, makes sense.
