Thanks! I’m in no rush but (in case y’all need feedback) just letting y’all know I still haven’t received the payout. Is it a gradual rollout?

2025-09-01 14:20:27 UTC

@nprofile…69g8 I understand y’all are having difficulties with payout at the moment, so here is my #ProofOfWalk for the 50k challenge
Thank y’all for the opportunity!

By being both deaf and hearing, I can appreciate visual stimuli (like this video) almost as pleasant, with chills down my spine, as hearing the crackling of a nearby fireplace.
Especially when I remove my hearing aids, putting me in a state of hearing absolutely nothing, and ASMR-esque visual experiences pop out with tinges of euphoria. That’s probably the best way I can explain it

Guys my vision for orange-pilling new + experienced clinicians and small business owners alike, especially those who are either running a private practice or soon-to-be running their own business, will soon come to fruition.
I’ll be posting more on here about my plans, my progress, and hopefully a public business site for everyone to see.
Maybe I will even do more research to see if I can do any kind of web hosting via #Nostr instead of WordPress Hosting. If anybody has any information or can direct me to the appropriate resource, I’d gladly appreciate it.
Until then, see y’all soon with more updates!

What are y’all’s perspective on MySudo? In my experience, I have had very little to no issues with KYC upon online registrations & it works excellent with 2FA features
You’d need a paid subscription of either:
• $2/mo for 1 VoIP phone #
• $5/mo for 3 VoIP phone #s
• $15/mo for 9 VoIP phone #s
Along with other features shown

“Nostr Hospital Guideline” wow! what an interesting concept.
Perfect way to start my mornings with continuing education in medical conditions ☕️
Maybe I’ll put together a few neuro/musculoskeletal conditions in a Nostr Hospital (or Outpatient) Guideline article format and see where this goes.

Interesting! My immediate thoughts about the new features:
• GameChat - super cool & definitely rivals Xbox + PlayStation with a one-up using Camera feature. Just hope they implement captioning for the deaf & hard-of-hearing community
• Camera - feel super iffy about this for privacy reasons, but extremely useful for lip readers & the Deaf community
• Parental Control - better option than implementing mandatory age verification using digital IDs the governments are trying to push out to protect children on the internet

Right, so I figured for next time the best way to go about it would be using a tablet or my laptop instead

2025-03-24 05:09:50 UTC

- reply

As for your inquiries, I used a phone with 2556x1179 pixels for screen resolution. I did manage to get a photo of the chat box with the Live Caption enabled, but it doesn’t show the issue I had during the time. Specifically when I clicked to type, the keyboard will pop up taking up the space to where the point where I couldn’t see the chat due to the caption box covering it & if I want to see the full transcript in full screen to keep up with the dialogue happening from different people, I’d have to sacrifice my typing to read the transcript.
It’s a hassle, but what I ended up doing was use my computer to join the cornychat using the room link, enable the Live Caption there, and read the the full screen transcript while using my phone to type what I wanted to say in the audience without any major complications.
To visualize the UX difficulties for the phone by itself, I’ll try to screen-record for better clarification. Maybe that’ll help from a dev point of view

As someone who also takes privacy seriously, I can see from your point of view, as a dev, in how this could be detrimental to the those who prefer to use #cornychat for its privacy-preserving & anonymity user experience.
Though I appreciate you for taking the time to see the barriers from my point of view & considered the options, despite the unfortunate outcome. This was a far better customer service experience (in receiving a direct answer) than I would have gotten elsewhere.

2025-03-23 20:54:10 UTC

- reply

Is it possible to implement Live Caption / Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) services for those with hearing difficulties on #cornychat, #hivetalk, or similar nostr web applications for a frictionless experience?
I usually have to use my mobile device’s accessibility features, which in itself is sufficient, but can get in the way of typing in the chat box, muting/un-muting myself, or other typical functions.

Absolutely with you.
In my experience, I spent years and years fighting, even to this day, the constant ringing in my mind that sounds like a fire alarm going off from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed.
I only just recently started talk therapy after having reached a mental crisis after reaching a breaking point in my internal turmoil no one else could see. And, as you said, I came to realize that my ringing stemmed from a lifetime of internal strategizing in anticipation of all possible outcomes in every aspect of my life within the next half hour to the end of the month. As well as analyzing all social cues from my interactions that took place during the day and days before that. Decades of being afraid of missing words being spoken to me, saying things that have nothing to do with the conversation, being associated with any form of incompetence or lack of intelligence, or receiving emotional or physical abuse by my loved ones or those I respect.
Reason being, I lost my hearing at 2 years old, grew up with a severe-to-profound hearing disability, and learned to interact with my hearing peers by reading lips. Reading every facial expression and making sure to not miss anything for the sake of contextual clues, being observant at all times was my lifeline to being successful during my academia years, despite the immense toll it took on my mental health. I live my days sometimes with my hearing aids & sometimes without. My self-awareness had to expand to fill the room so I wouldn’t be surprised by some unexpected visitors or place myself in danger, thus, left me with heightened vigilance.
I grew up with this ringing and hated every moment of it. I’ve had sleepless nights, pouring every thought and fears into a journal as if I could transfer it out of my mind into paper, and tried every possible way to get rid of it. I was desperate for anything that didn’t involve crossing the line towards alcoholism & illicit drugs. The constant rambling in my mind was like playing chess with myself and no matter what strategy I put up on the board, my opposition was already 10 or 12 steps ahead of me. So I had to come up with ways to be even more prepared so that I could already have an answer for any problems thrown at me. Board exams, interviews, patient interactions, productivity meetings, financial discussions, etc. My life felt dull with ringing galore. It was a battle I just couldn’t seem to find peace in. A battle that almost completely won me over. Until I sought help from a mental health professional.
Since the start of my therapy, I received recommendations to combine antidepressants/anti-anxiety meds with talk therapy and I immediately rejected it. I’ve read too much about the side effects and potential hidden components not shared by the pharmaceutical companies to even consider it. My paranoia absolutely refused it. Until I reached that breaking point.
I’m not here to sway you or anybody reading this when it comes to medications. That’s not my intention. I just want to share my story. Mind you, I spent countless of hours researching different forms of meds with peer-reviewed evidence & had long discussions with my PCP. It wasn’t until after every reasonable alternative was exhausted before I decided to take the combination therapy route being prescribed medication with talk therapy.
Let me tell you, I had my doubts about my symptoms & even considered it to be a form of tinnitus since the onset. But since taking the prescriptions, it was like night and day. That’s when I knew what I was dealing with was a mental issue and not physical.
That’s when I learned, from months of therapy, about triggers and how to manage the symptoms. I’ve come to realize now that the ringing I hated all these years was my brain’s version of an alarm system/defense mechanism in protecting myself from missing deadlines, social cues, and physical danger around me. I just overwhelmed the alarm system all these years that it got uncalibrated & stuck in an abnormal feedback loop. Now it’s just a matter of recalibrating my internal alarm to a more balanced system.
So all in all, there is hope for us. I hope you know you’re not alone. Our internal hardships has helped us reach to the point where at now and continues to be a teaching experience for us in growth.
And I hear you. 🫂

This is excellent, @nprofile…wljq!
Another similar low impact, full-body, and meditative exercise physical therapists usually recommend for our patients/clients would be: aquatic therapy.
So in other words, you can take a dip in a community pool (or yours if you have one), just deep enough for the water to be collarbone level, and walk a few laps around the pool.
** You could definitely progress from there by:
• increasing the speed (brisk walk/jog)
• increasing the resistance (start with a small pair of dumb-bells with a reasonable + appropriate mount of weight)
• performing static exercises by standing on one position in the pool (jumping jacks, tai chi-esque movements, and half-squats as long as your head doesn’t submerge underwater for safety reasons).
Therapeutic aquatic exercise is so helpful & effective because water provides buoyancy, which reduces the stress on joints and supports body weight, making it ideal for rehabilitation and low-impact exercise.
The buoyancy of water allows for easier movement and reduces the impact on joints, which is beneficial for individuals with conditions such as arthritis or those recovering from injuries.
Additionally, the resistance experienced in water aids in muscle strengthening and endurance, while the viscosity of water provides a natural form of resistance that enhances muscle strength and endurance as movements are performed slowly and deliberately in all directions.

Hey y’all!
For those who don’t know me, I received my doctorate degree in Physical Therapy 2 years back & currently working towards being licensed.
This is an update about my current situation as a physical therapist:
As of now, I will be re-taking my National Physical Therapy Examination this coming April to obtain my licensure to practice as a Doctor of Physical Therapy anywhere in the U.S.
This has been THE most difficult part of my life journey I’ve ever had to endure and, to be this close to the end of the academia portion of my profession, it’s incredibly mentally taxing to say the very least.
This next board exam will be my 4th try out of 6 lifetime attempts to take it and I am so ready to get this over and done with. In order to qualify for licensure to practice in the US, I need a minimum of 600 out 800.
So far my scores for the NPTE:
• attempt #1: 542
• attempt #2: 597
• attempt #3: 598
• attempt #4: TBD (passing 🤞🏼)
Sadly, the board exams are only available 4 times out of the year with 3-4 months in between, so it’s a lot of reviewing & a waiting game until the next test date comes up.
Full disclaimer: I was told by some very genuine, authentic individuals here on #Nostr to share my story with y’all & keep you guys updated with my journey to be licensed.. so here I am. I am grateful to be here.
If you got this far, thank you for coming to my “Ted Talk” personal #introduction & I will continue to share with y’all with further updates.
GN! 🌙

I can’t speak for all d/Deaf people, but my background is that I communicate via both verbal and sign language.
When I think, I experience my inner monologue in both my own voice and visual imagery in form of sign language.
Culturally Deaf individuals can have an inner monologue, but it may differ from that of hearing individuals. Many Deaf people think in sign language or images rather than spoken words.

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words, good sir.
And yes I am familiar with CSCS. Many of my colleagues either came into the DPT program with a CSCS certification or were working real hard to obtain one. And lemme tell you, those guys really knew their stuff.
I have mad respect for y’all putting in, the knowledge you have, to work at the gym & educating your athletes alongside with them.
Those who put in minimum effort just talking the talk, but not actually walking the walk, really grind my gears because, at the end of the day, without that first-hand experience in the treatment/exercise plan you give them, are you really giving them the highest quality of /support? No.
We need guys like you for both the pre-rehab and the aftermath of our treatment. So all in all, we all work together and everyone wins. 🤙🏼

Yes,100% verbal speech all the way. I was fitted with bilateral BTE hearing aids in which helped both my parents to nurture me in a verbal speech environment. Somewhere along the line, I started lip-reading (which helped my pronunciation) and using touch of others’ vocal cords to adjust my volume level in certain areas (church, movie theatres, noisy restaurants, etc).
Doing all of this helped me work well alongside my peers in mainstream K-12 education & dispel any reasons to be on the Special Education track or Schools for the Deaf programs.
Ironically, I was fitted with a FM amplification system in the classroom to help me listen to my teacher better without background noises, but it led me to depend greatly on lip-reading with my peers since I wasn’t able to switch from the FM system to my hearing aids at a whim. 5 years of that in elementary school, I kicked off my IEP/504 plan and went completely mainstream as a highly proficient lip-reader and never looked back.

Hardest achievement I ever worked for in my entire life. All I care about is that it made my parents proud.
While I received my doctorate in physical therapy after finishing the 3-year DPT program, I’m currently in the process of obtaining my license to practice in the US.
My licensure exam takes place at the end of April, so fingers crossed I’ll be practicing by the start of this summer.

I feel that. I give so much credit to my SLP & audiologist with their guidance and education in speech comprehension and pronunciation growing up as a child with severe-to-profound post-lingual hearing loss.
Without @nprofile…3trl's SLP profession, I would’ve been stuck with having to either communicate via dry-erase marker and white board, very slurred deaf-speak, or learn to sign in ASL limiting myself to a small, isolated community within my hometown.
We’ve come a long way!

Not medical advice and totally understand if @nprofile…eh47 is following a specific physical therapy treatment plan prescribed by his DPT/physio/primary healthcare specialist:
The videos below are my favorite go-to rehabilitative exercises that can help strengthen the lower extremity (particularly the glutes and legs) and improve balance with emphasis in developing confidence to handle oneself without use of assistive devices (crutches/cane).
This way he can slowly minimize support of the chair or countertop over time as he becomes more confident in his strength & balance.
Sooner or later, y’all can introduce therabands, ankle weights, or MonkeyFeet to the same video exercises mentioned or target more specific muscles (quads, hamstrings, glutes, etc) to help reduce some of that wobbliness and improve general walking.
If you made it this far, thank y’all for staying at my DPT-related Ted Talk.

• QuantumLink authentication channel signing QR codes using cryptographic keys (Passkeys?)
in addition to storing 2FA codes within your password manager, you can utilize the Passport Prime device as your own authentication provider using the cryptographic keys stored in the device - and nowhere else.
This could be similar to @nprofile…8jsn's amazing concept using a #safebox where users can directly authenticate with each other using an encrypted channel for that temporarily active session.
Tim, correct me if I’m entirely off the mark, I understand the skepticism you feel about platform-based authentication methods, but I couldn’t help but introduce your idea to help steer them into a direction for better digital security methods.

Such a beautiful, cold morning. Too cold to go for a run, but when does it ever get down to the 30-40s in Texas?
Contemplated all morning whether I should chance getting sick with a quick little 30 min run/jog to get my blood flow going.
Guess what? I didn’t. And that’s okay! It’s okay to not do something and dispel the guilt that may arise out of it. You don’t even need to negotiate with yourself with a “….well since I didn’t go for a run, I can do [x,y,z] later today instead to make up for it.”
Why? Because we’re human! I know I will continue my routine later this week but today, I’m chilling.
Decided to stay in and chill with my kid sister watching her random, romantic tv shows I’d normally miss being outside running.
Quiet, quality time well spent with my loved ones is equally nice too.
You get to decide what you want to do with your energy and prioritize your health by making hearty, healthy choices for the mind, body, and soul.
Just my 2 sats. Stay humble. Stack stats. Love y’all! 🤟🏻

Absolutely love the Onyx. Michael Bazzell recommended it, among others, in his Extreme Privacy literature and now I use it as part of my weekly maintenance routine. Seamless, effective, and powerful.

It’s pretty dang good for a beta version! Centralized platforms have no idea what’s coming. Imagine Vine/TikTok-like Nostr clients next?
Social media will never look the same again.

P.S - I ditched Instagram and being on #Olas gives bittersweet nostalgia knowing my Nostr-less peers are still over on the other side of the pond. Need stronger social influence to garner their attention over here 😅

Today’s a beautiful day to get outside and absorb some of the sunshine our body needs.
Benefits of sunlight exposure (in moderation):
• Vitamin D production (maintain bone health, support our immune system for stronger defenses)
• Relieve anxiety
• Reduce depression
• Improve overall mood
• lowering blood pressure
Morning sunlight exposure helps regulate our internal clock, leading to:
• Improved sleep quality
• Increased alertness and wakefulness
To reap these benefits, it’s essential to strike a balance between sun exposure and sun protection. Aim for 5-15 minutes of direct sunlight on your arms and face a few times a week, and use sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 if you’ll be outside for longer than 15 minutes.

If there aren’t any medical concerns or circumstances, absolutely. I’m 155-160lbs myself and eat 3 whole eggs every other morning
If cholesterol is a concern at your age, get regularly checked with your doctor/PCP every 6-12 months or so just to be on the safe side.

It doesn’t have to be protein powder/shakes per se, but organic food with high % of protein like egg whites, red meat, chicken, tuna packets, peanut butter, etc. can contribute to your daily protein intake
Implementing more protein can help with your muscle recovery process thus alleviating your muscle soreness.
And be sure to drink enough water throughout the day to help the body regulate your metabolism!

Here’s a #throwback Thursday for physical therapy!
A fascinating historical tidbit about physical therapy is that it was pioneered by Sister Elizabeth Kenny, an Australian nurse, who made groundbreaking contributions to the field of physical therapy during the early 20th century. Her innovative approach to treating victims of influenza and later polio patients laid the foundation for modern physical therapy techniques.
Polio, also known as infantile paralysis, a devastating disease in Kenny’s time, with muscle fatigue and spasms in the limbs causing severe pain in many of its victims. When Kenny first encountered children with the condition, she was unsure how to relieve their suffering. On the basis of a recommendation by Dr. Aeneas McDonnell, a surgeon in Toowoomba, she decided to use heat as a pain-relieving measure. Kenny rejected the prevailing medical wisdom of applying dry heat, linseed poulticing, ice packs and immobilizing joints as they provided little comfort. Instead, she stretched cold limbs in warm baths, laying strips of hot moist cloth over affected areas, which appeared to reduce pain in some patients. This approach formed the basis of the Kenny method, which was later adapted to include physical therapies such as the bending and flexing of joints for rehabilitation.
Kenny's successful outcomes with this approach attracted attention from the medical community. However, her techniques faced resistance and skepticism from trained medical professionals who became increasingly outspoken in their criticism of her practices, which ran counter to the standard immobilization techniques (e.g., splints and braces) that were used to prevent skeletal and muscular deformity.
Nonetheless, Kenny persisted in applying her innovative methods, observing that limb stiffness was due to muscle spasms rather than inflammation as widely believed. She developed a working knowledge of nursing and eventually opened a small hospital where she reportedly used this method with success in treating polio patients.
Her revolutionary approach to treating muscle pain and injuries became the basis for modern physical therapy techniques. Kenny's principles of using heat packs, performing range-of-motion exercises, and avoiding rest immobilization which can cause deconditioning were adopted as core tenets in modern PT practice.
While her initial ideas faced resistance from a medical establishment clinging to outdated "rest and ice" protocols for treating musculoskeletal conditions, the successful outcomes of Sister Kenny's approach led to its eventual integration into mainstream physical therapy practice. This historical case highlights how new treatment paradigms can emerge through innovative clinical observations and patient-centered care, even in the face of initial professional skepticism and resistance.
In summary, Elizabeth Kenny's pioneering work revolutionized physical therapy by developing an innovative approach that treated muscle pain with heat and movement rather than ice and rest as was commonly done at the time. Her principles are still core tenets used today in modern physical therapy practice for treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries.
