OmenAtom, in You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose?

Queen Victoria island if it counts, farthest island from land

hungryphrog, in You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose?

Probably Sealand.

DirigibleProtein, in What Linux OS & Desktop Environment (DE) or Windows Manager (WM) do you use?

OpenSUSE + i3wm

snausagesinablanket, in What is something you watch/do but not for its intended purpose?
@snausagesinablanket@lemmy.world avatar

I started watching cow hoof repair just to see the relief on the cows after. The whole process is gross as fuck, especially when they have an abcess under pressure. It’s neat how they have temporary glue-on hoof parts and pieces that will fall off by the time the wound heals.

PlatinumSf, in Which sources do you follow to learn of new indie/small movies?

The letterboxed app was good. It recently got bought by a larger company, so who knows for how long, but you can ride that ship for a while

Dozzi92, in What is your favorite time travel movie or show?
@Dozzi92@lemmy.world avatar

Coherence came out in 2013, and the movie is phenomenal. Such an awesome take on the whole time theory.

+1 was another very good one, and more fun than mine bending, but does a great job tackling it.

I’m currently watching Dark, but enjoying it for sure.

PP_BOY_, in How long is a wound considered open?
@PP_BOY_@lemmy.world avatar

A wound is open for as long as it’s bleeding. For something like a papercut, this should be just a few minutes for most healthy adults. If you mess with the scab, the wound can be re-opened, though.

when can you resume normal activities

As long as you’re not actively bleeding and take the smallest precautions (wear a bandaid), you should be able to resume these within minutes

lillardfair,

Thanks, this is how I’ve always operated, but the person I’ve debated this with is so entrenched it makes me wonder if I’ve just been sloppy and getting lucky.

Curious what your friend thinks on this topic, actually

MrJameGumb, (edited ) in Why is such a tunnel needed?
@MrJameGumb@lemmy.world avatar

They’re probably going to build an overpass on top of it later

Slow,

I think that the overpass needs more powerful supports

theherk,

I suppose it would depend on what is passing over.

tryptaminev,

Curved Tunnel ceilings are quite strong, as they distribute the pressure of the surrounding rock/soil quite well. So if it is covered with loads of rocks and soil it could probably hold another street passing over.

facelessbs,

Nature bridge

brygphilomena, in Car Mechanics of Lemmy - Do you have a puncture repair kit that you would recommend?

I’ve got a decent kit from rhino USA. But I don’t think the brand makes a big difference.

GONADS125, in What is something you watch/do but not for its intended purpose?

I use a wall (sometimes with a pillow) to pop my shoulders, hips, etc. back in place. Do the same with couches/furniture in various ways.

I’ve learned all sorts of specific movements that will pop my joints back in the socket. I’ve had systemic dislocations since childhood due to EDS, especially during flare-ups. I can pop everything from my jaw to my toes.

MadBob, (edited ) in What was the last dumb phone you had before your first smartphone?

This isn’t my hand but I had this lovely bastard:

I used to be able to chuck it down the stairs and everything.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Haha! This! I still have mine in my treasure box of 1990s-2010s tech, with my iPod and my green Gameboy pocket.

MadBob,

My “iPod Classic”, for all its faults, had survived going under a bus’s wheel unscathed and falling off my bike at speed a few times before I finally consigned it to the box of electronic stuff I wasn’t going to take with me when I emigrated three years ago. The Gameboy colour’s in the cupboard as I type! I might even bring it with me when society collapses and I have to forage.

Donebrach, in Would a perfectly flat, tight sail on a boat be more efficient than a sail like we all know?
@Donebrach@lemmy.world avatar

think in the inverse: is a spatula better at serving liquid than a ladle? You’re trying to capture the kinetic energy of a fluid using a sail.

intensely_human, in You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose?

Black Rock City

FromNLWithLove, in Why is such a tunnel needed?

We had a few of these built in my country to allow wildlife to cross safely.

silas,
@silas@programming.dev avatar

We’ve had a few of these built on my planet too actually

magnetosphere,
@magnetosphere@kbin.social avatar

That was my first guess about its purpose. Thanks for the info!

jeffhykin, in Can external dopamine intake influence one's logic and reasoning?

If you want scientific details, look-up longitudinal studies on cocaine addiction and treatment. There are some surprising scientific insights on dopamine
