Ragerist, in What is the most unhelpful advice you have received?
@Ragerist@lemmy.world avatar

“You need to love yourself, before you can love someone else”

DrQuint,

I mean, good advice if it’s for someone who’s prone to build codependent relationships. Which still, no one but a professional therapist should be diagnosing.

Ragerist,
@Ragerist@lemmy.world avatar

But It’s in no way helpful advice to someone who is lonely or otherwise struggling. It’s almost along the lines of “why don’t you just cheer up”.

Helpful advice would be something along the lines “I understand you are struggling, maybe it would be a good idea to check out therapy”

Summzashi, (edited )

That doesn’t really say much though. “Never use cement to fill a pillow” is also crappy advice for someone that feels lonely but can be considered very good advice for someone thats considering filling their pillow with cement.

ZombieTheZombieCat,

What

Summzashi,

What part do you not understand my friend?

NikkiNikkiNikki,

The cement thing probably, I haven't heard that one before either

Summzashi,

Well I’m glad. Now you will not fill your pillow with cement. I guarantee you it will not become a more comfortable pillow if you fill it with cement.

JungleJim,

I think it can be helpful as a first sentence, but it needs more. “By loving yourself, I mean treat yourself better. Get a style and work it. Work out occasionally. Eat better. Find a hobby. Find another. If you want somebody else to love you, you have to first take care of yourself or nobody will think you could take care of them. Secondly, you have to make yourself into a person that’s interesting because anybody can be nice. You need more than nice. Third, having a life is how you meet people, and you gotta meet 'em before you can ask 'em out. That’s why you have to love yourself first.”

mp3, in Which is the most satisfying IO connector system, in your opinion?
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

I like Molex.

Said no one ever.

jcarax,

Beats the hell out of IDE.

Some will never know the pain of hitting the outside of their hand on a sharp corner inside a computer case while pulling on one of these.

cccc,

The best thing about Molex is I haven’t had to touch it for a while.

Chozo, in Accessing Kbin from Lemmy

You should be able to search them in the same format as you'd search for federated Lemmy communities. For instance, !askkbin@kbin.social should let you access Kbin's version of this community (assuming I know how to format the text correctly).

From there, you can subscribe to it from within your instance on lemmy.ml, and it'll show up in your feed as the rest of your content.

Dreamer_joy,

Thanks a lot.

cccc, in What's your favorite restaurant chain?

I love Sukiya. Unfortunately I do not live in Japan.

About12, in Navigation Question

Perfect! That makes sense now, thanks alot for your help much appreciated! Cheers 👍

Chozo, in Kbin client

App development will probably be slow for a bit. As others have mentioned, Artemis is in development, but because Kbin doesn't have a public API yet, I believe that Artemis is having to use their own web scraping method as a stop-gap until the API is released. I imagine that's probably a taxing process for the dev's server to handle, which is probably why the private beta is having such a slow rollout.

Once the API goes live, I imagine there will probably be several apps that pop up pretty quickly.

wakamo, in What movie did you rewatch most often?
@wakamo@lemmy.ml avatar

Hateful Eight. The acting, pacing, dialogue all 10/10 IMO. It just feels cozy watching it.

Jackcooper, in What do you use Vaseline for?

I know what your great great grandma used it for

buckykat, in Navigation Question

the ! addressing allows you to post a link that anybody can click to get their instance’s version of the community link. So for example, !linux posted anywhere on lemmy becomes a link to lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/linux@lemmy.ml for me, but the exact same link is a link to aussie.zone/c/linux@lemmy.ml for you

angstylittlecatboy, in What's your favorite restaurant chain?

Papa John’s. Far and away the best chain pizza, and the biggest topping selection of any pizza restaurant I’ve seen. I’d still say local pizza is usually better though, but Papa John’s is good enough that if I don’t want to fret over where I’m getting pizza from it’s my pick.

donuts, in What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?
@donuts@kbin.social avatar

I mainly just wanted to try Kbin after having already tried Lemmy before.
