MajorMajormajormajor, in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

1 word: pancakes. Nature's cork.

assclapcalamity,

okeydokey for the weirdo who doesn't shit from eating flour, eggs and milk. maybe you should drink more water?

unomas,

pancakes. Nature’s cork.

Nobody's ever said that before.

MajorMajormajormajor,

You obviously haven't rolled a pancake up into a cylinder and give it the tappy tap up the ol' poop chute eh? You're missing out.

homesnatch,

Intense scribbling.. With or without the maple syrup?

MajorMajormajormajor,

Without, do you want ants? That is how you get ants.

chaddy, in Why does Lemmy feel so fresh compared to Reddit?
@chaddy@feddit.de avatar

I think the lack of a karma equivalent, and thus karma farming, results in much more thought out and unique posts/comments.

WalrusDragonOnABike,

Torn between replying with "this!" as a meme about how generic responses like that are used to farm karma and making a joke about how "of course someone with only 1 reputation point would say there's no karma equivalent." Idk how reputation works and if its only internal to instances or a shared across instances. But its possible it does become a karma equivalent in the future.

Reputation seems borked at the moment, it counts downvotes but not upvotes so I'm sitting at -34 right now lol

Kantiberl,
@Kantiberl@kbin.social avatar

Boosting is the only way for reputation to go up. I boosted you for science.

Very_Bad_Janet,

Interesting! I gave you a boost as well, also for science. Funny how we all seem to be tinkering and figuring what does what here.

I'm not sure I feel comfortable taking advice from a person with -51 reputation...

Kantiberl,
@Kantiberl@kbin.social avatar

Ooo everybody come look at Mr. Non-controversial over here with his +40 reputation.

Do you mind explaining what boosting is for us on Lemmy?

Kantiberl, (edited )
@Kantiberl@kbin.social avatar

It adds your comment to my profile feed if anyone is following me. I think it's a way to work better with Mastodon like sites but I don't really know. I understand that @ernest is in the midst of changing that.

@chaddy@feddit.de avatar

Lol, I think the first one would definitely have flown over my head without explanation. Also, I don't know if it's instance specific, but I can't seem to find my reputation on my profile, neither on feddit.de(lemmy-ui) or Jerboa. Where do you get that information?

Maybe it could be useful for moderators or admins to access that information? But that also poses the risk of accounts "reputation-farming" like on reddit to sell the account to some bot-farm that uses it for astro-turfing or sth similar.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the reputation thing is a Kbin feature, at least everyone I've seen mention it so far has been on a Kbin instance.

I do not think Lemmy has the same thing, but don't quote me on that!

Very_Bad_Janet,

There is a thing called Reputation (IIRC) tucked away in your profile. Im not sure if that's a true karma equivalent. Also not sure what you can do with it.

awsamation,
@awsamation@kbin.social avatar

It doesn't matter what you can do with it. You couldn't really do anything with karma either.

pipipopo, in I'm obviously old. what is this "rule" trend I'm seeing everywhere on Lemmy?
@pipipopo@lemmy.pipipopo.pl avatar

https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/196 Rule: You must post before you leave.

hakase, in How do I stop seeing post from 2 or 3 days ago?

It’s a Lemmy thing, not just on jerboa. I just sort by “top day” to see the top posts from the past 24 hours. Once I’ve seen most of those, I switch to new all, which keeps a decent amount of new content coming through.

The platform is still young, so it’s a combo of a) not enough content yet and b) early sorting algorithms that paradoxically haven’t caught up with the influx of users yet.

r4tzt4r,

Thanks! Sorting by top day seems the best option for now.

It's funny, I never saw 196 on reddit but it really makes an impact in this part of the fediverse!

tox_solid, in What is the weirdest thing that your family does together?
@tox_solid@lemmy.world avatar

On holidays, my family insists on gathering together and sharing a meal. It's fucking terrible.

CmdrShepard,

Have you considered calling CPS? What a terrible situation.

tox_solid,
@tox_solid@lemmy.world avatar

Sadly I'm 32 and I don't think there's much they can do for me.

sexy_peach, in Do you think Technology makes us more lonely...?

I think that it’s a common myth. In certain situations it can be true, but not generally.

It’s a case of people thinking the past was better than it actually was.

xarvos, in Hey Lemmy, what are your favorite ear worms?

One of the few I can enjoy is Boney M’s Daddy Cool. Had to endure it for hours on a trip so I guess I had to enjoy it as a defense mechanism.

LemurOnRails, in With the way the world's going, is there even a point to anything anymore?
@LemurOnRails@kbin.social avatar

There is never a point. Just do enjoy while it goes.

livus, in If we're no longer called redditors, what are we? Lemons? Lemmings? Lemurs?
@livus@kbin.social avatar

I like Federati because it includes kbin and mastodon.

But if you want a term just for Lemmy I like Lemons.

Unanimous_anonymous, in With the way the world's going, is there even a point to anything anymore?

I’ve been having that feel too as well as with immediate future choices. I finally might be able to buy a house, but I’m in Florida. So do I put money, time, and effort into a house that’ll be under water when I get done paying it off (assuming it isn’t destroyed by a hurricane), or do I seriously start looking at moving jobs/states to even have a chance at having a house that will be there in 15 to 20 years? Renting seems like an even worse option since this last year has proven they can just charge 50-100% more and get away with it. And once the house thing gets “solved”, now I have to wonder if we ever get our shit together and stop destroying everything in and including the world so the house thing even matters. Idk. This is just a paragraph meant to vent. I don’t have an answer for you, because any sane person almost has this gnawing constantly in their heads. Personally, I’ve just made goals that have been bettering myself and my surroundings as well as the people around me. As for why? I’m not religious, so at this point I figure if I do my best, I can one day die happy knowing I at least tried to do something.

sjatar, in With the way the world's going, is there even a point to anything anymore?
@sjatar@sjatar.net avatar

I still have hobbies and people I wanna keep happy ^^ If there is any hope, giving up closes any and all possibilities. Be the best you can be, until the we know the final resolution.

Zippythezigzag, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

I want an audibe achievment fanfare everytime something i do goes according to plan.

@IlliteratiDomine@infosec.pub avatar

I may already have that power. It’s hard to tell.

doctortofu, (edited ) in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?
@doctortofu@reddthat.com avatar

The ability to control the temperature (and perhaps humidity and/or composition too) of air within 1mm of my body. Like a personal air conditioner. Would make going outside right now so much more bearable, pretty sure it would help with sleep too… Sigh, one can dream…

Semi-Hemi-Demigod, in Do you have a sibling? What is the relationship like?
@Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social avatar

My younger sister is FTM. She's always been a loud asshole, and I had hoped that maybe living as a man was the cause of it. Nope, still a loud asshole. Just with different hardware. Love her to death, though.

Way better than my crackhead Trump-supporting older sister.
