From B to GGG! Holy shit! That’s fucking insane. I thought we were talking about some general swelling sort of on the order of what happens with pregnant women. And it happened within a 6 month period? I can’t even begin to comprehend what that must have been like. She would have had to have woken up every morning with a noticable increase in size. I’ll bet it started out as a “wow, this is a nice little perk” and very rapidly escalated to “WTF!”. I also really like that the all fixed picture is waaayy bigger than the original B size.

No such thing in Texas. Nope, the only reason to do anything, at all, while you are completely alone in your car is to hope that you will be noticed by some (definitely not a creeper staring into other people’s cars instead of watching the road) road warrior in a lifted diesel dually and deeply insult his proud lineage (land owners in the South who
definitely probablyhopefully were not slave owners) and his deeply researched (heard from Fox news while half conscious from alcohol poisoning, at a bar while looking for his car keys so he can drive home) personal beliefs. - Comment on 👁️🐽👁️ 3 weeks ago:

Wtf is going on with this timeline? First we have chess masters using their anus’s to cheat. Then sticking a finger in your butt can fix abnormal heart rythms. And now we’re going to find out that numerous of our top athletes all cheat by wearing butt plugs that release oxygen into their bowles.

Normal? Not at all. But there are others out there, and we have so many unfinished projects that we are working on too.
I like the vape idea, that is fucking brilliant. And it’s probably for the best that you restrain yourself, because if you don’t, then it will get really expensive… Once you can power all your small projects and have a “limitless” supply of batteries, you’ll realize all of the things you can do with a shit ton of batteries, like you can buy an entire kit to electrify a bike, motor and all, for like $150 on Amazon. But then you’ll need a charger that can grade your batteries so that you can build packs, and you’ll need a spot welder, and nickel strips, and kapton tape, and some thick wire, and decent microphone and a cell phone camera stand and… What? The mic and camera stand? Well you might as well document the project and put it on YouTube. If you’re lucky it could take off, but if not you can at least write it all off on your taxes as business expenses. What stuff would be worth writing off? Well the computer and the 3d printer of course. You’re going to need those to design and print the battery case, and also edit the videos for YouTube…And if all of that seemed logical to you, then you might want to get tested for ADHD, or Autism, because you might be on one or both of the spectrums, like so many of us here on Lemmy.

Welcome to the engineering club. When I gave a size for the plug version of the AED, I took into account the current state of battery technology and also how many amps you might possibly be able to pass through the skin of the anus without doing severe damage.
- Comment on quick thinking 1 month ago:
What a weird timeline… The US is going to outlaw vaccines at the same time that insurance companies will start refusing to pay for surgically implanted pacemakers and force everyone with a heart condition to wear electrified butt plugs.
Automatic defibrillators everywhere will be reduced in size to a package smaller than a beer can, and CPR classes will teach you the proper way to spit on the AED before shoving it into someone’s butt. - Comment on Happened to me last summer 1 month ago:

Pretty much anybody reading this still uses XP at least weekly if not daily.
It’s still all over the place, ATMs, gasoline pumps, ticket machines, kiosks, ect, ect… Some of you may even be sitting in a room with XP right now and not even realize it.
You may have forgotten it, but it is still there, waiting, watching, ready blue screen for just no reason at all. - Comment on Microwave Intensifies 2 months ago:
You might want to search on the word cantenna. Helped set up a cantenna for a friend’s parents once. They lived in a lake house for a few years, but they were in a dead zone for pretty much everything. They had a cell booster that would occasionally get a single if luck was on your side, but once we set up the cantenna on the booster, they had a steady signal .

You do have 2 holes on either side that meet the middle and are continuous from 1 end to the other. So yeah, you are the weirdest of donuts.

No, that’s a parakeet. Your thinking of the two soft, protruding organs on the upper front of a woman’s body that secrete milk after pregnancy.
- Comment on wtf 2 months ago:
That’s pretty cool. However, no human has ever won by more than 15min, and every horse has a 15min delay built into their times. So even the biggest winning margin of nearly 11 minutes would have lost to the horse if they had started at the same time.

Wow, what do you have against models? I mean, I know that the trope is that they aren’t very smart, but the same trope applies to firemen, so why pick on models?
- Comment on Diagrams 3 months ago:
I was thinking it was sync, but I didn’t want to call them out if I was wrong…
I suspect that it was originally written for devices with much less power and much less memory. Also reddit had upper limits on image size. So, Lemmy’s yolo way of dealing with images is coming up against sync’s attempts to be able to run nicely on the worst devices. - Comment on Diagrams 3 months ago:
That’s the real problem. The app he is using reduces the image to optimize memory usage, but if the image has too many pixels in either direction, it ends up decimating too much.
I ran into that issue with one of the Lemmy clients when I was trying them out, but can’t remember which one it was. If I remember correctly, it should be something that you can turn off, but it can drastically slow down how long it takes to display some images. - Comment on *dies of cringe* 4 months ago:
What a horrible way to die… Having to listen to hour upon hour of “confessions” about lusting after couches, and excessively detailed descriptions of couches he had fucked… No doubt at some point the pope was begging to be raptured.

Hence the well known sleep aid that our grandma’s used to give us before bed, bowl of sugar.

Your meta analysis link is about mood, and not energy levels. I know in layman’s terms most people conflate the two, but this is a scientific paper so they’re not the same. And your other link is an article by someone mixing medical terms with layman’s terms to come up with something incorrect. This is why people are losing trust in science, it’s because of stuff like this where people misinterpret scientific results to try to get as many views as possible.
You know people can easily do this experiment for themselves right? In fact, I do it most days at about 2:30. As my blood sugar drops after lunch and I start to get tired and unfocused I will often have a piece of fruit or small piece of candy. Do you really need a scientific paper to see there is something askew with what you are saying? If so, here is your scientific paper:pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3820066/.
The sugar snack condition was associated with significantly higher tension after 1 hr, and a pattern of initially increased energy and reduced tiredness, followed 1 hr later by increased tiredness and reduced energy.
- Comment on Done this 4 months ago:
That’s only sort of correct. It’s only true if you narrowly define hyperactivity as some very specific condition. The studies clearly say that people can experience a “sugar rush” after consuming sugar. The problem is that “sugar rush” is exactly what most people mean when they say hyperactivity. Hyperactivity as in activity that becomes hyper. Hyper as in “above or excessive”, activity as in “doing stuff”. So, “doing excessive stuff”.

Some people think they are so ugly they are cute. However, when you suddenly surprise one on a dark path in the middle of the night, they are less cute and more nightmare fuel. The “recently revived road kill” look they usually sport, along with the teeth and the hissing, and the raised claws (very much all a defensive posture, but try telling that to the shit in my pants) don’t do much to endear them to people that live around them.

The “enough work” problem is the story of my childhood… I have way too many memories of sitting in the garage, or on the driveway, either freezing to death or being eaten alive by mosquitoes, at 2:30 a.m. while trying to hold a light absolutely still in just the right position…
