@lzvolk it seems to me that the goal here is to follow the “scientific process”. I would surmise that their initial goal would be to find a foundational measure that would basically be an average value for an average person.

It’s from that baseline that I would imagine that they would compare individual deviations from the norm, so that they might more specifically address a distinct problem

At least that’s how we would have done it in my former field

Expanding the tools in my garage, I has torque wrenches now, so after getting new tyres, I was able to check the nuts after a bit of driving around and just a couple were a bit under.

I kind of just want to make, fix, and maintain all the things now.

Car is good until I get new parts delivered and coated #SubieRumble, PC is going ok now after downgrading the GPU to exorcise the gremlins it had, 1 of my 3 3D printers needs some work on its frame, firmware, and an accelerometer tune, but it's the middle sized one, so that may take some time, not being essential and all.

I also need to give some love to my bikes and take them for a spin, but that needs motivation there's only been a few sporadic rides the last 10 years, and I'll be harshly reminded how unfit I am, and get sweaty and yicky and have to cleanup before having to take kids from A to B, so chances are slim.

I also had my DJ business, in its heyday, I was looking to expand & hire, with 3 vans & 2 full sets of DJ gear to go on the road. The Taxman wanted all my money.

About then, my wife became disabled & our life plans had to be changed.

For 2023, the word that keeps coming to mind is 'Free'. As an older woman, who recently retired and moved cross-country, I'm building a new life.

Free to:
-Explore what I love doing. It's not always what I thought it would be!
-Make friends. My circle had become very small to nonexistent.
-Say no. Let go of 'shoulds.'
-Say yes. Embrace new experiences.
-Jump in the car and wander.
The list goes on but I'm out of space here.

What does 'Free' mean to you?

#Retired (medical).

I #AmReading – a lot! Mostly #SciFi.

I watch a lot of #SciFi and love #DrWho, the #Orville, and the like.

#BushMechanic through necessity. Owning a 8-tonne motorhome and being a pensioner means professional mechanics are a last resort.

#Married since ‘84, 3 kids, 9 grandkids.

Travelling with my wife, 2 #dogs, and a #cat in our #motorhome on the road for 7 years now, living the #RVLife.

Also play with #AIart, though not an #AIArtist 😁
