I'm using 2.4ATA 90min back to back sessions to treat my covid induced brain fog, with great results.
It's the first time in a year I can think clearly. Anyone with long covid should seriously look into this as a treatment, it has some solid science behind it and is very safe, albeit expensive.
At this point I've tried 14 different drugs, not a single thing has moved the needle except this.
Too early to say how transient the effect is, it's very possible my symptoms return after a few weeks. There are conditions that HBOT can out right 'cure', the bends and carbon monoxide poisoning are the first to come to mind. So I don't think it's out of the question that it's effects can be permanent.
One of the causes of my symptoms will be straight up organ damage, and there's plenty of evidence HBOT speeds up the healing of tissue damage. So any progress in this area should be permanent.
I found some instructional videos on how to make the chamber, looks very easy. It's only 5 PSI of pressure and an O2 mask. I already know how to make O2. This might be a fun project. On further reading, these aren't legal to have in the home in some countries due to fire codes.
5 psi chamber pressure won't get you to 2.4 ATA of inspired oxygen. Be really careful with building a chamber yourself. A fire inside a pressure chamber is a horrible way to die. Asphyxiation and explosive decompression are also risks.
Correct, 2.4 specifically is 35.27 PSI. I was just suggesting I can start with a small amount of pressure to test it myself. Avoiding explosions is rather simple. The air in the chamber can be normal levels of O2, which just means I need a proper mask that does not leak the O2 or the air I exhale. I already have O2 sensors. I can just tell it to alarm at 25% O2. Watching the videos on making the chamber is actually giving me a bit of a chuckle. I see people building these really complex steel chambers with hundreds of bolts as if they were expecting 50k PSI. I bet I could do this with plexiglass or even plastic. I can even add several pressure relief valves that open just above the threshold.
I found something. "ata" seems to mean "atmosphere absolute" and describes the total pressure:
"The ata unit is used in place of atm to indicate the total pressure of the system, compared to a vacuum. For example, underwater pressure of 3 ata would mean that this pressure includes 1 atm of air pressure and thus 2 atm due to the water.", from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_atmosphere_(unit)#Pre...
> Do you think there is an opportunity to allow sharing outside of Instagram?
Absolutely. Although I think there is some power, at least initially, in focusing just on an Instagram specific license. But in the future 100% we'd love to add more license options for more traditional use cases
There is a huge amount of copyright infringement that goes on on Instagram, but to be fair to users there isn't really any decent framework in place to make sure they're reposting legally.
I built Sharefair over the last few months, it currently is only accessible if you have a creator account (currently limited by Instagram's new API). But I'm hoping to include all account types in the next few months.
I love that you are helping creators to defend the value of their work! have you considered investigating partnering with legal startups such as legalzoom, legalist, or someone else to help time strapped creators send the nastygrams as well?
We haven't considered that properly, I think chasing up copyright infringement is a difficult one, especially for Instagram reposts where the payout will most likely be so low.
Having said that, in the US, the CASE act, which will introduce a small claims court for exactly this kind of use case (excuse the pun) made it through the House of Representatives yesterday. So it's an interesting option for sure!
When I visit your site on mobile, 1/3 of the screen tells me your name (not your company's name - your name) and zero percent of the page gives me any details beyond "The easy way to get instant permission from photographers to share their images on your Instagram legally."
Unless you personally matter to every potential customer I'd reverse those two percentages.
Nope, not at all. It would be great if they did though, it would actually give them an incentive to protect artists and photographers. Right now they are taking a real back seat with copyright infringement, which is a real shame because it's the creators that bring all the value to the platform and they're the ones that are losing out, whether it's not being properly attributed for their work or brands reposting their stuff without payment.
I'm currently using it to treat long covid brain fog, out of interest, what are these reasons?
