enkille, in For those that are, how are you keeping track of tropical weather this year?

I’ve always just used https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official data and https://www.windy.com/ to check out stuff like pressure and wind speed

cyberpunk007, in What's the hottest and coldest temperature you've ever been in?

-40, 50 I think (Celsius)

hootener, in What are your favorite leftist podcasts?
@hootener@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I think Cool People who did Cool Stuff is pretty leftist/anarchist.

FARTYSHARTBLAST, in Hey Lemmy, what are some good public domain books?
@FARTYSHARTBLAST@sh.itjust.works avatar

Candide by Charles Voltaire is funny IMO

OceanSoap, in Does anyone actually enjoy working out?

I enjoy reformers pilates a lot, but that’s because of the deep stretching worked into the routine. It’s a game changer. If I could, I’d be doing it every day.

I fucking hate cardio with the passion of 190 million burning suns. However, I have experienced a runners high before. You get a bit lightheaded and dizzy, but not so much that you pass out. It just feels good. However, not good enough to get me up off my ass and do it, lol.

kabrododragon, in What replacement for each major social media do you use

So far, testing out platforms.

  • Mastodon was fairly good as a combo platform IMO
  • Lemmy which seems really promising, getting used to the layout
  • Threads is like Twitter and is Facebook, so
bemenaker,

Threads doesn’t count. It’s Meta and hard linked to an Instagram account.

ophelia, in Does anyone else struggle with silence, particularly when trying to sleep?
@ophelia@lemmy.ca avatar

Not at all, I love falling asleep to perfect silence. It’s so rare though, I usually sleep with ear plugs to mimic it but it isn’t the same.

BaltSkigginsThe3rd, in Why hasn’t r/circlejerk made there presence known on lemmy?

Achyu, (edited )

In case it’s new info: Post titles can be edited on lemmy, unlike reddit.

skillissuer, in What is a beautiful concept or idea that continues to blow your mind?

thermodynamics. it sets hard physical boundary to what happens spontaneously and what can’t, how much energy you need to pump in or can recover from process, but not only that - it’s very broadly applicable, including large parts of chemistry, biology, information theory and more, like this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissipative_system

justhach, in Why hasn’t r/circlejerk made there presence known on lemmy?
@justhach@lemmy.world avatar

Isn’t one of the main points of circlejerk lampooning reddit culture?

Lemmy is still pretty new and finding its identity. Give it time.

Naw the sub is funny sometimes. I don’t always visit it but when I do there is something they are talking about

Arguably lemmy is currently in the non-self aware stage of circlejerks with all the screenshot memes

mysoulishome,

The memes here are not good. But the company is 🙂

rufus,

hehe. however, it sounds pretty much like reddit over here. i think people brought their culture along…

MythicWolf, (edited ) in Does anyone actually enjoy working out?

Yes. I wholly enjoy working out these days. The noise @ 6am irritates my neighbors like their smoke irritates my lungs @ 12am.

hazardous_area, in What are your favorite leftist podcasts?

Go visit maximum fun, the whole network is usually centre left or leftist. Whole range of topics and types with that perspective.

99 PI comes to mind as well Or wait wait don’t tell me’s podcast

ophelia, in How often do you brush your teeth?
@ophelia@lemmy.ca avatar

I brush at least twice a day for 2min 30sec each time. I have an oral b io toothbrush that times it for me, and helps me know when I’m brushing too hard or too soft. I also brush for about 30sec before and after naps, or if I’m about to go out somewhere.

My husband makes fun of me for it, but my teeth are super important to me!

KuroJ, in Does anyone actually enjoy working out?

Depends on the exercise. My favorites are heavy squat and deadlifts. It’s just a good feeling increasing the weight every week and hitting new maxes while getting stronger.

I suck at bench so I’m never looking forward to that, but I’ve set goals to hit by the end of the year so I’m sticking to it.

Honestly now, I feel terrible when I don’t workout and it really affects my mental state.

LongRedCoat, in What's it like working night shift?

Look up "night shift belly." I did night audit at a hotel for a year and a half. By the end, I could only really stomach eating the kale salad from Whole Foods and not much else.

It also wrecked my social life and when I got sick, I got really sick, so I think my immune system was out of whack in general.

Like others have said, the commute is a dream. The shift itself is quiet with plenty of time to have deep conversations with any coworkers you may have, read, listen to podcasts, etc. It's like living in a different world.

I say give it a try, but listen to your body and find something else soon if your health is affected.
