  ugh time for my weekly shower again

  Open-backed headphones in public will have everyone around you hearing your music no? Doesn’t seem suitable for public transport for example.

  And I just don’t like in-ear anymore… Used them for about a decade but it’s always discomfort and trying to get them in just right, and I tried so many models. Not to mention you need to clean your ears all the time or risk pushing the wax deeper into your ear canal each time (or getting it all over the ear bud)

  For me personally, the sweat is a small price to pay for the comfort and sound quality of over-ear headphones. Plus they’re harder to lose!

  how would a cave form on the moon? impacts just leave craters right? And there’s no water that could move stuff around, and no tectonic activity

  Can somebody explain the comment? They all look like butterflies, not moths

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why I added the word “vanilla”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree except for the heteronormative part. What does the confusion of these terms have to do with heteronormativity?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hi! Peter here to explain the mene. Since all the other answers are wrong, here’s the actual answer:

  Top means the person who penetrates the other (the bottom). The term originates from gay sex, since there it can be very important who is penetrating who. But it can also be applied to other sex (not just homosexual cis men). In the meme above, the implication would be that l Lois uses a strap-on or other kind of dildo to penetrate the delivery driver.

  Top often, but not always goes hand-in-hand with domination (dom/sub). Hence the dominatrix-like outfit Lois is putting on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That is dom. Top means to penetrate the other

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For vanilla cis hetero sex it doesn’t apply since the man is always the top and the woman is always the bottom.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let delivery drivers keep their⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  top means the one who penetrates the other. What you’re describing is a dom

  I don’t see a microscope

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checkmate, Round Earthers 🌍⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It kind of is, if the world were flat it wouldn’t look much different I reckon, except when you’re in exceptionally flat places like oceans or large lakes. And even then, due to clouds, fog, dust, smog and atmospheric scattering, things far away are harder to see

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checkmate, Round Earthers 🌍⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think unless you are up very high, most tall distant things are covered by buildings and mountains.

  If you are in, say, the eastern part of cairo, you might be only 20km from the pyramids of giza. However if there was a normal sized house even just 1km away in the same direction, it would be big enough to cover the pyramids entirely.

  Then there is also mountain ranges. Even if you were on top of the Burj Khalifa with a really good telescope, multiple mountains would block your view. You would need to be multiple Burj Khalifa’s higher up in the air to see the pyramids of Giza from there.

  And then there’s clouds, fog, dust, smog and last but not least atmospheric scattering of light, obscuring things more and more the further away they are.

  Yep, if I’m not mistaken, your version has s = 4 + sqrt(2) which is approximately 4.70710678119. Very close to the ideal!

  There is a similar rule applying to, well, lets justr say…

  People have offered great advice, one special case: Does your phone still have microUSB for some reason? In that case you might just need a new cable

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We gonna fight⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t hate most leftists (or even non-leftists for that matter). I hate the kind that hate other leftists. The lemmy.ml tankies always complain that people who disagree with them are splitting the left, when they’re the ones calling everybody who vaguely disagrees with them a liberal. Not purely an ML thing though, there’s plenty of this kind of person in all camps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you tried going outside though⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I know everybody is different but I don’t understand how anybody thinks calm tasks will cure anxiety, because that has never worked for me.

  For me exercise is the only thing that helps, but it almost always works.

  left unity: People with different opinions working together and listening to each other

  tankies “left unity”: Everybody has the same opinion so we don’t need to argue. Anybody who does is a lib

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ML logic is "respecting" other communists by constantly asserting they aren't communists⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  no no they don’t deny the existence of anarchists. They deny that anybody who doesn’t like Stalin could be anything but a “westoid liberal fascist”
