  It can be beneficial when combined with some other (thermostat controlled) heating or cooling.

  The fan circulates air in the room, making the temperature of the air in the room more uniform, and giving the heating/cooling device’s thermostat a better sense of the room’s actual temperature.

  In a room with an air conditioner and a poorly placed thermostat, a fan could be helping the room stay cooler.

  Egyptians had scholars of ancient history and archeologists who studied ancient Egypt.

  Bruh, the paper copy of your essay didn’t even survive a day past when the teacher finished grading it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ancient Historians v. Modern Historians⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ll all be remembered as far-right nutjobs.

  I certainly hope so.

  I really hope that future society is leftist enough to view even today’s “left” as being very conservative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ancient Historians v. Modern Historians⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  And that’s by far the largest part of human history.

  Eh… Depends how you measure the amount of ‘history’.

  If just going by length of time, yes. But if you also take into account how many people exist at that time (how much history is happening per unit of time), then there’s an argument to be made that modern history is a much more significant portion, since our population sizes are so much larger than the relatively tiny populations in prehistory. The vast majority of people who have ever existed lived during the period of modern recorded history.

  (exactly the problem you’re having)

  Thanks! That worked perfectly!

  Good thing the studio will never need to build another game in the future, right?

  Imagine a construction company that fires all their laborers after the end of each construction project…

  The 90s weren’t awesome – they just didn’t suck. (For most people.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never Gonna Give You Up⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What do you expect, listening to music from the previous century?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Treat your body like a data centre⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, often more than they strictly need. Because many of them opt for lossy evaporative cooling, rather than closed-loop cooling, because it’s simpler, cheaper, and more effective … just at the slight cost of using up our limited fresh water reserves at an alarming rate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Treat your body like a data centre⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Do not consume as much water as possible.

  You will puke, and if you don’t puke, you will die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bring it back⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. Just a single vast expanse of ocean that makes the modern-day Pacific look small and cramped. Just think how lonely it would be in a boat on the other side of the earth…

  Oh, and the hurricanes will be absolutely gargantuan sometimes, having such a large ocean to strengthen over before finally hitting land.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can trust me⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Or, just use them while not stealing anything. Have fun evacuating the whole store (leading to lots in lost profits) because, “Oops, I didn’t read the sign”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨onions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Or just leave the gross mayo out of it entirely.

  What’s the alternative?

  Open your music app yourself, select the song, and press play.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Battle.net's discord permissions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  presume the plan is for the battle net app to act as a pseudo discord app and let you control everything on your discord account through it.

  Yeah, to me that sounds like what’s going on. They’re trying to implement a Discord client within their game, and to really do that successfully, it needs permissions to do all the Discord things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨onions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The actual ‘grown up’ take.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨onions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A bit of hot sauce or balsamic vinegar is way better. And healthier.

  (And lol at every fucker out there who thinks they invented some magical special sauce by mixing mayo and ketchup together. Like nobody’s ever thought of that white trash culinary masterpiece before.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How com the ad industry make so much money?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like im a special snowflake virtually immune to ads.

  For the most part, I don’t even see ads at all.

  The only ones I might be exposed to at all are:

  • Disguised Lemmy posts pretending to be normal users.

  • Billboards and other signs on the side of the road.

  Every other kind of ad has basically zero chance of ever even reaching my eyeballs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the military do regular STD tests?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Any specific guy who’s pushing back against condoms gets a “no”

  Whenever somebody says they don’t need/want a condom, that’s when you need one the most. Or just deny them entirely. Because it means they’re doing the same with others, which means the ‘no condom’ people have higher than normal STD risk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the military do regular STD tests?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No. The military does not regularly test for STDs unless the soldier asks for medical treatment and complains of STD symptoms.

  The entrance test will screen for serious ones like HIV, but that’s only done once, and it doesn’t screen for all STDs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨President Trump reacts to President Biden’s cancer diagnosis: "I don't feel sorry for him"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump dying will not stop this. He’s a carnival barker and is not really in charge.

  But he’s the one they’re all unifying behind.

  Once he’s gone, everybody else is going to be clamoring to become the next Trump, the next leader of the right wing. And this competition will divide them and turn them against one another. No more cooperation, no more covering for each other’s crimes – they’ll be at each other’s throats, throwing each other under the bus.

  Eventually one will probably come out on top, but until then, the infighting over the power vacuum will cripple them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨President Trump reacts to President Biden’s cancer diagnosis: "I don't feel sorry for him"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point, I’d prefer a fast and painful death. We need this fucker gone.
