Cqrd, in to all Professional Debt Collectors,

Go fuck yourself

stolid_agnostic, in Did the pope vote in Argentina's election?

Pope is technically head of state or another country so it is probably bad to vote in any election just from the perspective of looks. The pope should be above politics.

AdminWorker, in to all Professional Debt Collectors,

Well unsecured consumer debt has technically no legal consequences if it is not paid unless you get permission to garnish wages from a court. Most consumer debt collectors use the “badger and harry” approach of constant phone calls to collect debt.

Secured debt will just take the collateral.

Of course try the high fico score debtors first.

Or just forgive the debt.

SheDiceToday,

Yeah, that “technically no legal consequences” though is a thin thread that’s protecting you. It was being discussed on another thread.

Papergeist, in What is your ideal Oreo dippage time? (Or your biscuit or cookie of choice.)

Uhhhhh zero seconds. I don’t like milk and thus I don’t dip my cookies in shit.

Fair.

mdk_, (edited ) in hey - trying to switch from Chrome to Firefox, what are your recommended extensions and/or quality of life addins, etc?

This is a switch I made yesterday, but instead of Chrome to Firefox, I switched from Vivaldi (Chrome, but kinda like old Opera) to Floorp (japanese fork of Firefox with focus on privacy and sane defaults).

I got Sponsorblock for YouTube, uBlock Origin for ads and Gesturify for those awesome mouse gestures (my main reason for using an Opera-like).

Sometimes, I use Tampermonkey for misc Scripts on different Pages, so I installed that aswell. But for now, no scripts for Tampermonkey, as I primarily focus on setting it up to be more like Vivaldi.

Other addons are Ghostery for more privacy and Session Buddy to prevent oopsies when playing around with Tabs and windows.

Floorp even has dark mode for bright pages already included in the box.

Based on what I’ve read here on Lemmy, people generally tend to recommend agaåinst Ghostery, check this for one example : lemm.ee/comment/4348493

cybirdman, in What is your ideal Oreo dippage time? (Or your biscuit or cookie of choice.)

I remember watching a Mythbusters or similar show that concluded that the time out of the milk after dipping is more important than the time in the milk. I’ve been doing that ever since, one dip than 5 seconds out then dip again and 5 seconds out again and it’s perfect every time.

How does that work?

cybirdman,

Not sure, I guess exposing the cookie to air let’s the milk seep in deeper.

archonet, in Dear Lemmings, what is your personal approach to human diet?

Where others say “my body is a temple”, I say “my body is a garbage disposal”.

xantoxis, in No politics inteded: Why isn't Trump after leaving office in any way or shape involved in politics say as member of congress or senate?

In fairness to Trump, he’s been pretty busy defending himself from a record number of indictments. Gets in the way of political participation.

rob64,

If only!

Evotech, in hey - trying to switch from Chrome to Firefox, what are your recommended extensions and/or quality of life addins, etc?

Firefox is quite good natively. All I have is ublock and bitwarden

Ogtand sponsorblock. I already pay for YouTube premium so I don’t really care about in video ads

Defectus, in Dear Lemmings, what is your personal approach to human diet?

Had a UC flare, after that I adjusted my diet. About 50% of the time I do 18h of fasting. Tried an 3 day water fast, gonna do this maybe every 2 months. Mostly meat free meals, cooked from scratch. Trying to keep sugar and bread to the weekends. Eating fermented vegetables and kombucha with most meals. Additional vitamins when I remember.

He’s trying not to go to prison.

LegionEris, in Dear Lemmings, what is your personal approach to human diet?

I don’t follow any sort of strict system or monitoring. I just try to have vitamins, fats, fiber, and protein in every meal I can. Mostly I work hard to get enough calories in. I lead an active life, often walking to and from my relatively active job. I have a fast metabolism, but my Welbutrin slows down food processing in my body. I’m a perfect storm of calorie deficiency. I can basically guarantee that I’m going to burn more calories than I take in any day that I work. I usually stock up on relatively healthy snacks and give in to the munchies when I’m off work. I’ll have a whole second small meal of yogurt and cereal with peanut butter as dessert after dinner. And then I’ll spend the next day out walking half the damn day because of my wonderful walkable neighborhood x_x

wonderful walkable neighborhood x_x

I’m so jealous right now, I wish we had those type of neighborhoods were I lived.

LegionEris,

There is a very real chance that mine is the only one in the city. It’s right in the middle of the city by the bigger college. North side might have a few walkable areas in theory, but it also has dangerous areas you wouldnt always want to walk through. South side is strung out retail and commercial spaces, several minutes drive to anything, poor pedestrian infrastructure. I’m in a sweet spot.

intensely_human, in Dear Lemmings, what is your personal approach to human diet?

I’ve found this about myself after extensive trial and even more extensive error:

  • My body seems to use up potassium fast when I’m stressed. No idea why. But taking potassium seems to help me recover when I’m feeling burnt out (I have an HPA axis problem so my stress response isn’t normal)
  • Low carb diet (under ~125 grams per day) makes me functional in a way antidepressants, adderall, modafinil, tony robbins, ayahuasca, zen training, therapy, etc never could. I’ve never done keto but low carb is incredible for me
  • I have no sense of thirst so keeping a nalgene bottle nearby helps me a lot (the 1-liter capacity is important for tracking my water intake, and this is why the new 828-ml standard for sports drinks pisses me off)
  • Wheat gives me systematic inflammation, resulting in miserable outlook on life for about three days. It’s dose-dependent. I can have a piece of toast and be fine but if I eat half a loaf of bread, then I hate everyone and everything the next couple days
