Are there tutorials on how to do this? Should it be set up on a server on my local network??? How hard is it to set up? I have so many questions.

Snake oil sales persons everywhere. Supplements should have been regulated by the FDA from its inception.
I suggest you enjoy your placebo effects and take a physiology course. (You can verify that this is the placebo effect by studying and doing research, but I won’t link how to do that for you, I know that’s unkind of me to do)
Go peddle your snake oil elsewhere.
OP, go see a medical doctor who knows more about human physiology than some snake oil sells person on the internet.
exothermic@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Homebrew Traffic Monitor Keeps Eyes On The StreetsEnglish91·5 months agoIt’s possible to still track speed using a video feed instead. You just have to know the distance between two static points within the videos frame. Time naught = passes first static point, time final = passes second static point.
Velocity = distance / time
Although I’m not sure how or if this would impact the battery life of the device.

exothermic@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•What California's first-in-the-nation clothing recycling law means for the state0·7 months agoI believe there are some fallacies in your statement that someone smarter than myself could probably point out.
Just as a thought experiment, let’s look at the following scenario. It is entirely possible that we are already paying for this as consumers. Most municipal services, such as waste management/recycling services, are subsidized by local governments to reduce costs for their residents. In addition, companies that donate clothes to other countries ( countries that really don’t need our clothes ) most likely would be non-profit companies. Their tax exempt status costs us more. Granted, this is all just hypothetical.
My assumption, because I trust my government for the most part, is that someone who has greater knowledge of these topics/costs, has calculated how much it actually costs the taxpayers. It is entirely possible that these textile manufacturers could inadvertently be subsidized by the government (your money).
This hypothesis could probably be further strengthened by examining the markup prices from clothing industry, since quality and price do not seem to be correlated in that industry, at least in my experience.
Expensive brands will probably continue to market to people with more money and budget target/walmart brands will do what they do best, and market to lower income consumers.

Jr. Lays Out Possible Public Health Changes Under Trump0·9 months agoAs a scientist who works with all kinds of things humans ingest, I am very scared of this man and the deregulations he’ll bring. But you know, fuck science and education, cuz ‘Merica.
Side note, how do we reach people who reject science? I always thought education was the path forward, but they seem to be attacking that route too. Are we doomed to live in a world of conspiracy theories and misinformation?

You said you read things that “got you to this point.” What was it you read? I’d be interested in reading it.
I guess I start making donations to the post office by becoming a stamp hoarder?
