Juliie, 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?

Avoid fiber like a plague, already

So no to popular fruits and vegetables, no carrots, beets, strawberry, apples

Hmm but also it would be good to actually poop last day before hike so maybe take some pills for that day before for a huge splasshh bbbrrrr

When you return expect to give birth to a shitman

I haven't eaten fibre for a while to prepare for this. I don't mind severe constipation but i just need to get through those 3 days without pooping. Also not going on a hike idk why everyone is assuming that. Anyways, thanks.

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

There is already an AMA community the first step would be to help that community grow in order to get enough participants to make it a good experience for everyone.

I don't have any suggestions but would like to give my thanks for the quality content

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.

VentraSqwal, in What communities ("subreddits") would you like to see?

I want to see the see silly story subreddits: TIFU, AITA, Am I the Devil, things like that. And I'll miss Best of Reddit updates.

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

Okay, this brings up a question that's been in the back of my mind. I'm all in on federated communities, but I'm wondering how that architecture supports a massive event. Are there any instances that could support a giant number of concurrent users constantly refreshing a page? How much of the server burden is on the insurance hosting the community, and how much is on the instance that a visiting user is logged into? I'm not sure how it works.

nieceandtows,

That’s a good point. I would think at least Lemmy.world would handle such a load.

Beehaw is also quite well funded atm. Iirc their balance is currently several times their server cost

AlligatorBlizzard,

We've got competence over here on sh.itjust.works, the guy running the instance apparently does something similar for his day job.

But these three are all terrible suggestions because of the situation of Beehaw defederating from the other two. If you pick one, some of the Lemmings (lol) on another instance won't be able to interact.

swab148,

Beehaw has defederated, though, so no one would be able to see that.

Not just the architecture, but also the possible logistics of such an event. Who'd contact John Oliver's PR team, for example. What about the scheduling? Also, while I think people here are good-natured enough that it might not be necessary, who'd be making sure that the thread responses (the questions) don't violate any community and instance rules?

I may be overthinking it, but such a huge event would involve a lot of coordination from many different people.

bstix,

It would be great if Victoria from Reddit would do it. Even Reddit can't do proper AMAs without her.

It's a pretty important task to verify that the AMAee is who they claim to be and to ensure that the technical things work.

There's no way that someone famous would bother making an account on Lemmy by themselves just for this unless they already understand what it is in the first place.

It basically requires a host to conduct it like a regular interview.

The current federation is not built to support a massive number of users all on the same page.

I am hoping for a solution that involves major servers working together to direct a stream of donations into a group project, a super server designed to meet the need during heavy load events.

It'd probably have to be heavily moderated with minimal local activity. The point would be that when major news dropped, the users of different instances would be able to come to a central forum (the superserver) to discuss with the world, and also to any local or subscribed forums to discuss with their people.

Benefitting all of the admins who no longer have to worry about their server crashing, and all the users who can either avoid the superserver or participate in the larger discussion without any impact to their local Lemmy experience.

@eulheim@feddit.de avatar

I had a very good time reading this.

I’d recommend to throw some Loperamidhydrochlorid in the mix, not sure if you can find it in your pharmacy. When I’ve been too Music Festivals, we’ve always had some as an emergency, if the toilets would be clogged (which happened a lot).

Stay strong 👍🏻

Vex_Detrause,

Just be careful with these, if you overdo it you'll have constipation. Which is also dangerous when it lasts long.

Butt to add on the solution codeine or Tylenol#3 or narcotics can decrease motility which results in constipation.

bquinlan, in How do pre-reddit influx lemmy members feel?

Fledditors are all over the map in terms of interests, temperaments, and manners. I think the majority of us are trying to fit it and contribute, but even that can be disruptive when there are this many newcomers. I deeply appreciate how patient and friendly the folks who were already here have been toward this sudden invasion.

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

I think you should probably ask him first

nieceandtows,

Actually we should talk here first before asking him, because if he agrees but nobody wants to participate that would be a very bad look.

Try asking the bottoms from the lgbtq+ communities.

I think David Blane talked about this on Hot Ones

Avoid foods with lots of fiber leading up to the trip! And then take lots of fiber after you’re home safely.

Wander, in Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement?
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

I'd be more inclined to reach out to Louis Rossmann, especially since he's said he won't post on reddit anymore. Maybe we can even find a home on lemmy for his right to repair campaign.

dragnucs,

Him too is a good candidate for an AMA.

nieceandtows,

He’s a good candidate too, but to me, John Oliver has come to be associated with Reddit revolts in the media, because he was flooding the front page for a while. Even major news outlets wrote about it. If he does an ama here, it would symbolically show that those people have moved on to Lemmy.

randombit,

Why not both?

Nut Butters: Peanut or almond butter in small jars or packets. They are calorie-dense and can be eaten in small quantities.

Crackers: Plain crackers are low in fiber and can be filling.

Cheese: Hard cheeses like cheddar can be easy on the stomach and don’t require refrigeration for short periods.

Protein Bars: Opt for bars that are low in fiber.

Dried Meat: Such as beef jerky, can be a good source of protein.

Nuts and Seeds: In moderation, these can be good sources of energy.

Bottled Water: You’ll need to stay hydrated, but since you mentioned you can’t pee very often, drink just enough to not feel thirsty.

Electrolyte packets or tablets: To keep your electrolyte balance in check without consuming too much liquid.

Godspeed!

Thanks a lot! I'll go hunting for these as soon as the stores open for the day.

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

I am all on board with the idea. If someone has connections to mods from r/IAmA please reach out to them for help and let's make it happen (here on lemmy / kbin)
