hyazinthe, in What's the stupidest way you've ever injured yourself?

Fell up the stairs. Had to visit a hospital, got a splint.

eighty,

surely you meant fall down the stairs - right?!

hyazinthe,

uhm.. nope

techtask, 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?

MREs. Particularly US MREs. You can eat em as much as you want and you won't have to go for a week.

Fear the end of the week, however

whenlifegivesyoureddit,

Glad I wasn't the only one to think ration packs. UK ones used to have similar effects

CanadaPlus, (edited )

Especially if you don't rehydrate them properly. That's where the reputation comes from at least partly.

Edit: Or so I hear.

sethboy66,

What US MRE requires rehydration? Retort pouches are universally used to carry wet rations, I thought the only hydration needed was for drink mixes like instant coffee and drink mixes.

CanadaPlus,

I'm actually just repeating what I've heard. I'll add a disclaimer.

That surprises me, though. It must add a lot of weight. The Canadian ones have dehydrated or partly dehydrated components.

eldoom, in Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement?

I’ve been here about a week or so and so far I think the absolutely perfect candidate would be Vermin Supreme.

killick, in What would be the best way to protect a room from unwated visitors in a low-tech fantasy world?
@killick@kbin.social avatar

You can spread powder on the floor so you could see if someone had stepped in. It wouldn't keep them out unless they didn't want anyone to know they'd been in there.

plzExplainNdetail, in What piece of wisdom about life are you able to provide others?

Believe others when they tell you who they are and then shift your behavior accordingly.

Box A only because ain't nobody got time for any "Paradox" BS & daddy's got bills to pay. Trick someone else with all that Time Travel nonsense!

We finally got shitposting on Lemmy, lessfgo!

eyy,

shitposting

C'mon read the whole thing man, its a no-shit post.

taladar,

No shit, Sherlock.

Put a sign "staff only" on the door

No cause it’s like a inside joke so it works with people who know me and my humour and I feel sarcasm is better used in some form of criticism like quoting something hypocritical.

It would have to be well hidden or well guarded. Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider come to mind as well.

Merthin1234,

Yeah without knowing anything else about the world, hiding and guarding seem like the best options.

Moghul, in Deleted

A and B every time because if the machine "predicts" you take both, you get 1kk usd, if the machine "predicts" you take only B, you get 1.1kkk usd. It's a free million dollars at least. Buy a house and invest the rest.

ATiredPhilosopher, 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?

Brother/sister/sibling, please just poop.

archomrade, in Hypothetically speaking, if Reddit back tracks on their API plan and meets all of the communities expeditions- would you go back to Reddit?

Definitely not. Even if I get luke-warm on lemmy, Huffman has shown a complete disregard to the community and has completely pivoted to building the business. As soon as they introduced New reddit and bought AlienBlue, the writing was already on the wall.

I’m not sure if lemmy/the fediverse has the legs to keep the community going indefinitely (i was around when Voat was absorbing the last reddit exodus, i’m hoping lemmy has more legs than that), but I think i’m done with these for-profit social media sites. Youtube is the last one (for me) that hasn’t burned that bridge, but I’m not a contributor there anyway. For being a link-aggregation website though, I feel like federations are a perfect fit.

I’m old enough now that I can see myself not using social media at all… Jesus how did I get so old. Time to go buy a Miata and some aviators.

bobs_monkey,

I remember the Voat semi-exodus, but as I recall that was all the communities that got banned. Voat turned into a cesspool real quick

t_378,

I'm not sure if lemmy/the fediverse has the legs to keep the community going indefinitely (i was around when Voat was absorbing the last reddit exodus, i'm hoping lemmy has more legs than that), but I think i'm done with these for-profit social media sites.

What I'm hoping for, is that a portion of people that care and come to Lemmy stick with it, and those people that aren't at all concerned with Reddits's business dealings stick with Reddit. It gives each community a chance to develop it's own voice, which is how it was before the major centralization of the web.

I guess what I'm saying is, even if Lemmy doesn't beat Reddit into the ground, Lemmy can still win in it's own way.

Bro are you mailing yourself somewhere?

mizu6079,
@mizu6079@lemmy.world avatar

I wish I could mail myself out of this situation but nope.

MucherBucher,

Come on. The internet is kinda anonymous, you could tell us it's because it's your biggest kink and noone would bat an eye. If you don't tell in fear of IRL friends finding out... that's already gone anyways.

@SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml avatar

Heyy is it a situation you’re in voluntarily, you’ve been forced into it, or ‘voluntarily’ bc getting out of it would be more painful?

mizu6079,
@mizu6079@lemmy.world avatar

I wasn't forced and only two people know I'm holding my poop in. But they don't know what extents I'm willing to go to in order to achieve this.

adj16,

🤣

CanadaPlus,

This is exactly the sort of thing I'm guessing. Or stowing away.

gzrrt, in What is your boomer opinion

Alcohol is toxic, carcinogenic garbage and we'd be noticeably better off if everyone voluntarily stopped drinking it.

Lunar,
@Lunar@slrpnk.net avatar

Anecdotally, this is a position I've seen held more often by young people than by boomers. Not sure what the statistics are exactly, but regardless it would be nice to see a cultural shift away from alcohol.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

I hold this opinion because I've watched family die from alcoholism, and I myself am a recovering alcoholic. It's a miserable way to go.
