Are their specifics on when high-pitched singing becomes falsetto?
IWTL how to shut off my mind at night
My mind is alive at night. I get awesome ideas, and feel like I do my best thinking then. I feel so motivated to get up and program, write, draw, anything. And quite frankly, that’s special for me; I’m not a very motivated person. If I had it my way, I would just stay up and live a life where my sleep schedule is 2am to 10am. Of course, this isn’t feasible. I have to get up for school at 6:30, meaning the latest I can sustainably go to bed is 10:30pm. That’s pretty much the exact time my mind starts to go off. It makes it hard to fall asleep, both physically because I feel so awake, and emotionally because I feel so inspired and it’s sad to have to leave that behind. Is there anything I can do to somehow shut off my mind at night and maybe reroute this energy into a place like the morning where it is useful? I’m extremely sluggish in the morning and it takes me a long time to get up, the exact opposite of night.

TIL scientists have successfully created a process to genetically modify pigs to produce human-transplantable organs. The method edits the genetics of pig DNA to prevent our bodies from rejecting their organs. It would end transplant lists overnight. Human trials are starting.

What happens to my contact lenses if I were suddenly to go into a coma for an extended period of time? Is there someone whose job it is to remove them?
YSK that if your phone mysteriously stops working, don’t try to get into your bank account.
Biggest Scams People Actually Fell For
Sorry for the lack of details, I’m trying not to dox myself.
Long story short, someone convinced a cell phone carrier to port my phone number to a phone they owned without interacting with me. They then waited until I needed to pay bills, which based on the time of month was today. I signed in using 2 factor authentication in which they got the text message code instead of me. How they translated that code into access to my online bank account, I cannot explain, but neither could anyone at my bak or cell phone company, and I used to work for that bank, and before that, my cellphone company, and I can’t either. I couldn’t access my bills, because my cell phone stopped working, prompting me to think my sim card shit the bed, so I just used a different method. While I was paying my bills, some asshole siphoned off about a grand from my account. The bank is covering the thousand dollars and I am definitely losing my cellphone number, but it’s a minor inconvenience compared to actually losing a thousand dollars. Given my employment past, I feel like I should know better and I’m pretty ashamed of it, but both my bank and my cellphone company have said this has gotten really popular in the last few weeks so I wanted to bring attention to the problem.
TL;DR: if a banking related inconvenience seems like a perfect storm, stop what you’re doing before you give up too much info.
