    If you’re doing chest compressions to save someone who has stopped breathing there roughly a 10% chance they will survive but a 0% chance if you don’t So it’s often worth it anyway.

    However it does keep the blood flowing and can prevent brain damage until a defibrillator is available which has a much higher chance of saving someone who has stopped breathing.

    The heart is also protected by the lungs and breast plate.

    I just blocked Politics.

    I felt that politics posts and discussions on reddit led to a separation of communities and echo chamber when platforms like that an Lemmy would ideally, be politics free.

    It leads to a more friendly positive and inclusive place to be.

    I think it would be impossible to keep politics off Lemmy so best I can do for now is filter it out.




  • Cinematographer here. It is a very expensive industry but everybody starts somewhere and the technology has improved so much that even no money productions are doable now.

    Shoot on your phone. Shoot outdoors. Use your mates as actors. Writing a script costs nothing but bare in mind everything you write could cost you money to acquire. The clever bit is how to write that without it costing much.

    Above all story and characters are the most important so focus on those rather than expensive gear.

    There’s also some great books out there. The guerilla filmmakers blueprint helped me out a lot when I started out.
