Pursed-lips breathing is an effective technique to
Improve gas exchange (both oxygen and carbon dioxide)[2]
Slow the rate of expiration[2]
Increase the volume of expired air[2]
Limit dynamic hyperinflation during periods of increased ventilatory demand, including daily activities and exercise[2]
Decrease the respiratory rate and minute ventilation[2]
Increase tidal volume, and reduce the work of breathing[2]
Relieve dyspnea and increasing exercise tolerance[2]

Also a good technique for asthma symptoms. Can help someone make it through until they get their rescue inhaler.
Tucked away in southern Chile, near the Northern Ice Field, lies an explorers dream: The Baker River. This beast of a waterway beckons adventurers worldwide to test themselves on some of the planet's most formidable terrain and whitewater the planet has to offer.
The Baker is fed by some of the world's largest freshwater reserves. A quick tour on Google Earth reveals its impressive scope and the glacial landscape that surrounds it. Note the glacial field on the left of the image below.
The river's journey begins calmly, flowing out of Lago General Carrera - Chile's largest lake, known for its deep blue hues. This upper section offers world-class trout fishing and scenic, low-key whitewater rafting.
But don't be fooled by this gentle start. Soon, the river transforms dramatically at Salto del Baker, a massive waterfall. Just below the falls, the glacial waters of Rio Neff join the Baker, creating a swirling mix of blue and grey. This murky cocktail signals the start of the intimidating Class V Baker River canyon.
Navigating the Baker's canyons is a soul-stirring experience. It’s a true test of a whitewater kayaker's skills and resolve. The stakes? As high as they come.

The river's powerful currents demand respect. One rule reigns supreme: stay connected to your kayak, your 100-gallon life preserver. Solid crew and nailing your lines? Non-negotiable for survival.

After the heart-pounding canyon section, the Baker mellows, save for one more rapid. Then it's a smooth journey to the ocean, passing through a landscape dotted with local shepherds and lumberjacks and glacier topped peaks.
A few years back I was filming a documentary and got the chance to follow some lumberjacks who build rafts from their cut wood, floating them downriver for two days to market at the closest port town. They even build fires on these rafts, sipping mate as they navigate to the coast.
The Baker's journey ends at Tortel, a charming town where these wooden rafts are dismantled and carried uphill to the local sawmill. It's a testament to the resourcefulness of the locals.
Tortel isn't just the end of the river - it's the gateway to Patagonia's glacier-topped fjords. The town is built into the rocky coast line with much of the local streets being boardwalks over the ocean, made from the wood these lumber jacks faithfully deliver.
The locals in Tortel are awesome down to earth people and are always excited to invite you on there small Lancha boats for some exploration around the local Fjiords.
If you're heading to southern Chile, make the Baker River watershed a must-see on your list. It's not just a river - it's a journey through one of nature's most awe-inspiring landscapes.

This seems promising. Hopefully it will get a vote at some point.
Great take! I remember the concept of "verify" in my science classes; nothing about needing to "trust" 🤔

It's fully private, you pay for your credits in #bitcoin over Lightning, and they they are using "uncensored" models (i.e. they've removed a lot, but not all, of the guardrails put in place to keep you "safe" from potentially dangerous information).
If you are using ChatGPT for any sort of business function, you need to understand that "Open"AI owns your data and is using it to train their models.
