Using Your Phone on Toilet May Give You Hemorrhoids: Study

news.ycombinator.com Https 2025-10-14 01:17:16

Of all the crappy ways smartphones have affected our health, this one is a real kick in the pants. A first-of-its-kind study links excessive scrolling on the phone while sitting on the toilet with hemorrhoids. (Insert poo emojis.) But, seriously. Sitting on an open bowl offers no support for the pelvic floor. That puts pressure on veins in the rectum, making them swollen and inflamed. “The longer you sit on the toilet, the worse it is for you,” said Dr. Trisha Pasricha, director of the Beth

I Played the Lenovo Legion Go 2 Gaming Handheld. It's a Big Upgrade With a Bigger Price

It's been two years since Lenovo released the Legion Go gaming handheld. It was big and heavy, sure, but it also had poor battery life, really loud fans and was saddled with Windows 11. To be fair, it was one of the first of the recent crop of Windows gaming handhelds, and the competition hasn't exactly been exceedingly better.

I tested the Pixel 10’s charging with Google’s own 67W brick, and it’s still disappointingly slow

Robert Triggs / Android Authority Google’s Pixel series has, to be blunt, always been pretty slow to charge. Even the Pixel 9 Pro XL’s boost to 37W (about 35W effective) still left the phone taking a sluggish 77 minutes to reach full, while the regular 26W capabilities of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro left last year’s users waiting about 85 minutes.

The languages that would go on to dominate 16-bit computing, C and Pascal, were also available but were usually severely limited.
