- Comment on Is lemmy really any different from reddit? 3 weeks ago:
The basic idea seems to be that it should be pretty similar to reddit, but with federation. Definitely still seems to have its own separate character though. And different instances have their own unique cultures, some more differentiated than others.
- Comment on Bandai Namco reportedly tries to bore staff into quitting, skirting Japan’s labor laws 5 weeks ago:
If you know they are just trying to get you to quit and don’t actually want you to do anything, I imagine it’s easier than a job where you have to worry about how you appear to bosses and others. The facade of being productive itself can be taxing.
But it also depends how much leeway they give to do whatever. If you know you can just stay up all night and come in to sleep 8 hours, the time could pass pretty quickly…
- Comment on Anon loses weight 1 month ago:
IME, after getting used to hunger, it usually just goes away (although I have a hard time differentiating feeling hungry and sleepy - getting regular sleep helps me not overeat from mistaking the two). Getting use to it can be annoying, but it doesn’t take that long. Personally prefer just eating once a day and think exercise can help a fair bit. Doesn’t matter if it makes you feel hungrier if you already just fill your belly with relatively low-calorie-density foods and stop when it doesn’t comfortably hold more. For some reason some exercises make me feel hungrier, others sometimes make me less interested in eating. Maybe its a timing thing; if its close enough to bed time, exercising til I’m exhausted and have like a 3K calorie deficit for the day makes me just want to sleep rather than cook (in this case, the not being able to tell the difference between hunger and sleep may mean I interpret it as sleepy at night).

Texas. TBF, its not like my eye color is actually totally different from my listed color.
- Comment on Anon plants a seed of doubt 1 month ago:
Yes. Also eye color is listed (despite there being a photo, making it seem kinda unnecessary).
I don’t check my passport often, so I just assumed it would have that same kind of info.
- Comment on Anon plants a seed of doubt 1 month ago:
The listed height on my driver’s license (and probably passport?).
- Comment on Anon plants a seed of doubt 1 month ago:
Always fun to say I’m my legal height and have guys get defensive about their height because it would mean they’re shorter than they say they are. Maybe I round down a bit?

Was your brother my 6th grade history+english teacher who spent more of class time having recess or playing Risk (the board game) than anything else?
- Comment on Anon is a tour guide at a museum 1 month ago:
My AP history teacher liked to make up stuff. But like, he’d say he made it up right after telling the made-up thing.
- Comment on Anon goes to the store after turning 18 1 month ago:
Many just detect temperature changes. And upside down can will spray cold air. If there’s any space between the doors or between the door and the frame, you can spray it in and it’ll detect the temperature motion. Fancier models do exist that are more specific, so YMMV.
- Comment on I miss Adam West... 1 month ago:
Usually 4%/x25 has been considered the rule-of-thumb (and that’s based on a study that considered dying broke okay; not based on capital preservation). x20 would usually be considered fairly aggressive (although that depends if you are including other things like SS benefits if you are in the US).
Given the super-high CAPE ratio currently, even 4% would be be aggressive if you want capital preservation. Something like 3%/x33 would be more geared towards that.

- Comment on Redirect to prevent back button 2 months ago:
Usually with this, it’s like 20 entries, so pushes everything else off.
The ones where it’s only a couple entries mostly seem to be the ones where there’s multiple articles on a single page and it’s at least might be attempting to be helpful?
- Comment on "It's better to piss in the sink than to sink in the piss" 2 months ago:
What does pee holes have to do with it. It’s just about relaxing the muscles in the area that were holding the farts and pee so the farts come out too.
- Comment on "It's better to piss in the sink than to sink in the piss" 2 months ago:
If you hold farts in till you go to the restroom, its a natural time they’ll come out as you relax while peeing.

- Comment on Every August 3 months ago:
Because its really hot and humid here and summer either have frequent thunderstorms and flooding or droughts while winter storms tend to be much more mild. Winter is like 65-80F here during the day.

That’s my mood no later than May 1st.
- Comment on Uber and Lyft now required to pay Massachusetts rideshare drivers $32 an hour 4 months ago:
Because part of the time they aren’t being paid at all for their work and a good chunk of that money goes into the vehicle and fuel itself. After accounting for all the unpaid labor hours and expenses, it probably still comes out sub-minimum-wage.

- Comment on What do I need to trouble shoot second hand desktop computer? And how? 5 months ago:
I have an asrock motherboard which doesn’t like losing power (z97, so a little older than this one). Usually, I have to press the reset and CLRCBTN1 buttons on the motherboard, flip the switch on the PSU, wait 15 minutes, turn the PSU back on, try turning it on using the power button on the motorboard, maybe spam the reset/clrcbtn1 button some more and hope it works. Sometimes I can skip the PSU part, but not often. Think my model motherboard has some manufacturing defect related to the CMOS, because others have reported similar issues.
