puppy, in Where do you go on Lemmy for reliable news and politics?

Good luck finding reliable news anywhere, this including the major TV and News organizations.

pedantichedgehog, in How often do you brush your teeth?
@pedantichedgehog@sh.itjust.works avatar

I floss and brush religiously every night, have for many years. I had a cavity when I was young and the whole experience was terrible.

I still ended up with multiple cavities as an adult.

LwL, in inverting shift key function on Windows

You have a few options, one is sharpkeys as people mentioned, alternatively there’s also the microsoft keyboard layout creator that lets you make a custom keyboard layout where the two are swapped.

If you only want to activate it temporarily, you could also use autohotkey to define a hotkey that makes you type a colon instead of a semicolon and vice versa until you switch it off.

ablackcatstail, in What is something you think leftists are not ready to hear but need to hear it?

I think people to the left of Democratic Socialists need to start reading up on anarchy and anarchism. It’s not about lawlessness and disorder but about horizontally focused civilization. It’s about anti-authoritarianism.

For those of us that live in the West African tropics, we just settle on how many bites we can tolerate per night lol. Some people apply agricultural pesticides (active ingredient Bifenthrin) down their waste water pipes once a month to ameliorate.

Oh, i had a problem like this very recently. The house has an air-vent that i assumed had a screen, but it was just flat out exposed. Because of the house design it just massively funneled the wind and mosquitos inside. I opened the vent cover and put some tissue paper over the inside so that it’d get fixed in place somewhat to “filter” the mosquitos and just instantly went from 5 per night to 1 over the next month.

Darc, in Leftist circlejerks everywhere

Yep, noticed that

How frequently do you change the dog’s water?

If all else fails, I hear mosquito nets are fairly efficient.

While I don’t agree with either extremes, I’m much more comfortable with hard left than hard right. Hard left isn’t actively established and trying to foment genocide in real time.

LwL, in What is the best peice of media you ever interacted with?

The Muv-Luv trilogy, or rather Muv-Luv Alternative in particular. I just went into hermit mode for the full 60 or so hours it took me to read/play all of it.

It still has its flaws of course but the worldbuilding and character interactions with such a dark and conpelling but not edgy story are something that nothing else has matched for me.

AfricanExpansionist, in How often do you brush your teeth?

There’s a recent podcast edition of Science Vs. about this very thing.

According to their interviewed experts and their research, brushing your teeth does nothing to prevent cavities UNLESS it’s fluoridated toothpaste.

Flossing also doesn’t really prevent cavities, but it is important for me gum health. They recommend regular flossing (more than once a week)

thegoodyinthehoody, in Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?

I’m an Apollo refugee, just don’t want to support what’s inevitably becoming another Facebook type place. Wasn’t sure how well I was gonna be able to switch over until I found the wefwef web app, it’s such a game changer and I’m slowly getting used to how this works
