Meh, just clean water spots in the shape of feet, it'll dry 🤷‍♂️

Oh man, I don't know how this could be true. I work manual labor, in sneakers. I spend all summer recreational time in either flip flops or barefoot. So while I don't have huge callouses on my feet, I've got some. Not tender baby feet.

But still, one day it was like 70 or 80 out, I changed out fancy clothes into shorts, but forgot to pack my flip flops. I really wanted to walk down to an event that was going on, but I didn't want to wear black fancy shoes with my shorts. So I went barefoot on the sidewalk, about 3/4 of a mile.

I did like you said and walked in the grass a lot, but man the concrete was hotter than I expected. It didn't hurt at first, but each new step I took found freshly warmed concrete that just heated my foot more. Keeping moving definitely wasn't helping. Eventually it started to hurt, even with walking in as much grass as I could.

I got to where I was going, grass covered area, and didn't think too much of it.

When I went to leave? Oh man. My feet hurt. Looking at them closely, I had several blisters on both feet. I cooked em. I couldn't walk back, I had to call my friend to pick me up.

That was on regular concrete. I cannot imagine doing that on asphalt, I wouldn't make it a hundred feet.

Maybe I really do have tender baby feet 🤔

30s checking in, local gas station had one up until 10 or 15 years ago. I moved, haven't been back since to check if it's still there 🤷‍♂️

Jealous, I haven't been camping yet this year. I'm itching to go

As far as I understand it, you shouldn't put peroxide on most, or maybe even any, wounds. It indiscriminately kills good and bad bacteria as well as your body's cells. So it can make the wound take much longer to heal.

Similar, but I think different, with iodine. You shouldn't use it in most cases.

The recommendation is to use warm soapy water to rinse/clean the wound really good. That's all.

If the wound is deep enough or gnarly enough that this doesn't seem reasonable? Well, peroxide wasn't gonna help you anyway, go to the doctor.

I'm happy to be wrong here, to be corrected. But this is how I understand it.

Also I do keep peroxide in my cupboard, as well as rubbing alcohol. Their uses just aren't for wounds.

Unique! Thanks, I'll try it and report back!

Not cool mist humidifiers.

That's a good point.

I don't know much about how federation works, but that seems like a good reason to move to piefed

Link?

The ole AT power supply standard. Nice.

Yeah that seems quite disingenuous for a device that literally popularized a whole new platform for PC gaming, and has spearheaded the efforts of Windows games on Linux, to the point of actually outperforming native installations of many games.

Bad journalism is bad.

Neat!
