What's the history behind the 195/196 name?

TheAnonymouseJoker, in I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?
@TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml avatar

I am from India and our summers are pretty bad, and the rainy season that follows up is both humid and a mosquito menace.

Apply mosquito killing creams or lotions. If you are too concerned about them, use natural essential oils made of plants that do this. They cost twice the chemical creams. No matter what you do with windows, cleaning standing waters, nets, electric rackets, you will still end up with those shitty flies making funny noises at your ear when sleeping. Peaceful sleeps and nights.

Use other measures as well, but the body cream/oil will be your final defense line that cannot be breached.

CoachDom, in How safe is it to eat raw eggs?
@CoachDom@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Last time I researched this, I came to the following conclusions:

  1. Salmonella lives on/in the hard shell part of an egg (not penetrating it) so unless you consume the shell, you should be fine
  2. If an egg has a lion stamp on it (UK only I think) it means that the farm it came from is certified not to have salmonella
  3. I ate raw eggs (including shell) on many occasion (not really a party trick but I like to shock people every now and then :D) and never have I ever encountered any unpleasantries because of this (apart from them tasking like runny boogers).

Number 1 is wrong. Salmonellae primarily live on the shell, but they possibly propagate to everything that touches the shell, including obviously the inner part of the egg.

Number 2 is good to know: The lion stamp eggs are from chicken that have been vaccinated against the most common salmonella infections. There is no 100% guarantee that it is effective, but together with hygienic measures and regular controls, they can be seen as virtually salmonella-free. Worth noting that vaccination is a requirement in many countries (e.g. Germany), and EU-wide for big farms.

PrunesMakeYouPoop, in What's a good way to prank your coworker?
  1. Wait until you have to fart while coworker is away from desk.
  2. Position sphincter directly above the tube in the office chair.
  3. Lower chair as far as it will go.
  4. Fart as you raise the chair as high as it will go, sucking the gassy shit particles into the tube.
  5. Walk away.
  6. Watch the carnage when coworker sits and lowers the chair.
Vex_Detrause,

Isn’t the exhaust hole is in the bottom?

PrunesMakeYouPoop,

Depends on the chair, I suppose. It definitely worked on the chairs I had in the US Navy back in 2006.
It doesn't matter though, you're still farting in their chair either way.

Black_Gulaman, in Does anyone actually enjoy working out?
@Black_Gulaman@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The feel of your muscles tightening. It sure makes you feel that you’re doing something great and you’re achieving something good.

Thats how I feel.

lasagna, in Do I need to remove metadata from pictures before uploading?
@lasagna@programming.dev avatar

I would suggest getting to the root of the issue and disable it on your camera app.

Butter_My_Buttcheeks,

On to look at the Google app to see if there are settings for it

Wojwo, in What exercises can I do to strengthen my willpower?

Well, the research says that therapy is great, but only after you’re on meds. You don’t lack willpower, it’s a physiological problem that needs to be addressed by medical care.

@lvxferre@lemmy.ml avatar

As long as the eggs are store-bought you should be fine (do not use caipira chicken eggs). Otherwise Paraná would be a desert, given how often we prepare mayo with raw yolks here.

ScotinDub, in Why is youtube recommending conservative "talking points" to me?

I used to get reasonable content as per my interests. Now after having a kid its just baby songs and bluey. I use smarttubenext on a firestick so at least I don’t get ads but it’s not great.

MigratingtoLemmy, in What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?

Goat farming

Laticauda, in What's a good way to prank your coworker?

Tell them you’re going to prank them, and then don’t.

Oh I like this one :)

SangriaFerret,

Keep them on their toes

pancakes, in What's the hottest and coldest temperature you've ever been in?
@pancakes@sh.itjust.works avatar

Coldest would be -60C, warmest about 40C. Funnily enough, these were in the same place (Canada).

CanadaPlus, (edited ) in What's the hottest and coldest temperature you've ever been in?

Hottest: +40C

Coldest: -40C

I think that’s exactly it, which is nice and round. The 40 above was in the US, the 40 below was the coldest it’s ever been at night here. Without windchill, mind you. Windchill is cheating. With windchill it can get close to -100C on those same days.

tunetardis, in What's a good way to prank your coworker?

I work at an office which uses Macs. If you have terminal access to a coworker’s machine, you can enter say “I’m watching you” and their computer will speak the text. Had a lot of fun with that until they figured out it was me.

A_S_B, in Do I need to remove metadata from pictures before uploading?

Follow-up question: how one removes the metadata from a picture or archive ?

Steamymoomilk,

Using tools like meta data cleaner from flathub and other tools have the feature built in. Also like with main social media it does it when uploaded
