Faresh, to asklemmy in I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?

Fly screens (Unrealistic solution but I wanted to mention it)

Can I ask why you consider that an unrealistic solution? In my experience the plant based products (lotions/patches etc) are ineffective but I haven’t tried fly screens yet.

Faresh, to memes in Playing an unsupported file

2.5 GB in 30 seconds is 83 MB/s.

Faresh, to memes in It's a problem

Paying attention to my breathing has sometimes worked (though not always) (not changing it, but feeling how your chest goes up and down and hearing the air rushing in and out and maybe even picturing the rhythm in your head). It distracts me from other thoughts and calms me down.

If that doesn’t work, I try to distract myself with an interesting fiction book. That normally brings my head to less adrenaline-inducing thoughts (since now when trying to fall asleep I will be more focused on who the murderer of the dead child could be, or why the Zogophonts abandoned that resource-rich planet)

With nowhere to escape, the pressure ripped through the soft tissue, and although rare and unusual, they say others should be aware of the danger.

Trapping a sneeze could also damage the ears or even rupture a brain aneurysm, they warn in journal BMJ Case Reports.

Faresh, to linuxmemes in Oh no ...

Huh. I wonder if GNU find should be modified, so that -delete only works when explicitly given a directory.

Faresh, to memes in now that would be interesting.

I guess dick size needs to be something else?

Vagina depth.

Faresh, to mildlyinteresting in How geologists collect lava

Is there a name for the phenomenon where something looks tasty despite not being supposed to be eaten (like soap, I always want to bite soap)

Faresh, to lemmyshitpost in What the hell! Let's all just go crazy!

I’m surprised anyone knew.

Faresh, to asklemmy in What is your favorite hobby?
Faresh, to memes in Know your enemy

a shovel produces the same amount of use-value whether it is sold for $5 or $25

Not disagreeing with anything you said, but use-value is a qualitative property of a commodity, not quantitative, so we can’t speak of an “amount of use-value”, AFAIK.

Faresh, to lemmyshitpost in Save thousands

I haven’t. But I can’t imagine a human shaped shipping crate to cost close to 1000 $.

Faresh, to lemmyshitpost in It's like everyday

Everytime I hear someone mention sinus, I get confused about what that is. Wikipedia says it’s airpockets surrounding the nose. I don’t feel anything besides fat and bone when I press down around my nose. Are they inside the skull? How do you access them?

Faresh, (edited ) to memes in Communist Filth/Capitalist Filth

In the west, the main cause of malnutrition isn’t a lack of calories, but a difficulty in access (from availability or price or other factors) to healthy foods with the required nutrition for a healthy life or from an excess of certain nutrients. This is often manifested as conditions such a obesity and type II diabetes. So malnutrition does impact people in the west.

Faresh, to linuxmemes in An unbiased comparison of linux distributions' setup

This is very likely my very environmentally influenced view, but I think there was a period of time where being vegan was a trend among the health hipsters, who weren’t vegan due to ethics, but because either everyone else was doing it or because they claim it has massive health benefits like they did for paleo, keto or other diets. Those I think could indeed fit that stereotype. Or maybe I’m living in a fairy tale.

Faresh, to linuxmemes in An unbiased comparison of linux distributions' setup

Huh. I had the complete opposite experience. I found fedora’s manual partitioner to be the worst of any distro I’ve ever used (I had trouble understanding it and it always ended up giving me some weird error when trying to finalize the partitioning step). I think I just ended up ditching fedora’s default manual partition manager.
