Well of course it has a picture of his parents fighting (???) in it. Dude's a severely messed up right-winger.

richteas,

Hmmm, the ISO standard sign for this looks different: iso.org

Standards aren’t regulations. A standard is a guideline. You can find the above sign in many places, including: www.gjplastics.co.uk/fire-blanket-sign/

grue, in TEMET NOSCE

I read this immediately after posting a link to the Oracle scene in The Matrix in another thread. In that scene, the Oracle has “temet nosce” on a plaque above her door and points it out to Neo.

Anyway, weird coincidence.

Lego lawsuit incoming…

Sailing7,

“Klemmbausteinbrücke” it is then. No lawsuit possible.

sgbrain7, in Same.

Nuh uh, that’s totally two scuba divers /j

sgbrain7, in OK, so it wasn't Windows 10, but...

I still like the Bliss wallpaper

turbowafflz,

I miss how cheerful computers used to always look with wallpapers like that. Some of the old suse wallpapers also have the same feel and they’re neat

suse-default

suse9.1-blue-800

sgbrain7,

Ooh, I’ve heard SUSE is nice. I didn’t know the wallpapers were also nice.

RiderExMachina,

That aesthetic is called Frutiger Aero, and would certainly be a welcome return from the current sterile design we’re currently using.

Neve8028,

Fruitigo ero is more about the glossy UI design of the windows vista/7 era than those photographs.

RiderExMachina, (edited )

Frutiger Aero” is the blending of nature and technology (e.g. bright nature wallpaper on a computer monitor). “Aero” is the glossy UI design.

Neve8028,

Aero is the name of the windows UI design, but it’s also a major defining factor of the wider frutiger aero aesthetic that was prevalent in loads of other tech and marketing at the time. I recommend reading the link you sent because it just backs up what I said.

banneryear1868,

“Autumn” on XP I realized was a neighbor’s laneway years later.

nephs, in A good deal of IT work, too

After a while using duckduckgo for everything, my work browser was hooked to Google, and when I went to use it the results were shit, and the ads were just overwhelming. Reconfigured it to duckduckgo.

Life is better.

It looks like he is lifting the desk up and shagging it while his victim looks on in horror. An ultimate expression of power.

thats in Wuppertal, Germany

zenbhang, in It's like everyday

Used to always have clogged nostrils when going to bed.

But when I slept at hotels I never had a clogged nose.

Turns out I was just allergic to dust mites.

Bought anti-dustmite sheets / spray and boom, no longer had clogged nostrils in bed.

Pulptastic,

Where did you get anti dustmite sheets? I looked a few years back and all I could find were $200 medical covers that were basically plastic bags and 1000 different ones on Amazon with 1* durability reviews. I would love to have a “legit” source and maybe some info on expectations.

zenbhang,

Hmm I bought these and had no problems at all:

UltraBlock Zippered Mattress Protector (Queen) - Waterproof Cover Stops Dust Mite, Bed Bug, Spills, Bedwetting - Hypoallergenic Encasement with Zipper - White a.co/d/594j8Rh

Dust Mite and Allergen Proof Pillow Encasing (Cover); Premium Microfiber (Standard Size) a.co/d/8NZkbyT

Pricing for both combined being less than $50

Yamainwitch,

Hello new paranoia! What can be done with my existing things to get rid of the mites???

Decoy321,

Fire.

Geert,
@Geert@lemmy.world avatar

The solution to everything really

Yamainwitch,

I won’t let those big bastards win!

loie,

Dust and vacuum, often. And with a bagged HEPA sealed vacuum. Vacuum wars YouTube channel does good recommendations at all price points.

Yamainwitch,

I was legit thinking about getting a bagged vacuum but didn’t because there’s too many options and I got stuck in that analysis paralysis. Thanks for the recommendation, there really is a YouTube channel for everything!

zenbhang, (edited )

Anti-dustmite spray helps kill a good amount! I was actually impressed with how fast it worked.

That and getting dust mite sheet covers for both your mattress and pillows is effective and over time will kill them off.

My initial steps I took were:

  • taking bed sheets and pillow covers to the washing machine
  • applying anti-dustmite cover to mattress
  • applying anti-dustmite cover to pillows
  • putting bed sheets and pillow covers over the anti-dustmite covers
  • spraying the anti-dustmite spray over and letting dry

Immediately noticed the difference and stopped getting a clogged nose in bed that day

Yamainwitch,

Thanks for the game plan! I’m legit cleaning out the bedrooms this weekend and will give this a try. I had the same experience with hotels but I was like “I guess my nose just, like, really loves that bleach smell.” 😆

figaro,

This is worth a shot. I’ll try it

zenbhang, (edited )

I recommend getting both the anti-dustmite sheets and pillow covers as well as the spray!

A combination of all 3 legit stopped giving me a clogged nose at night immediately.

Edit:

Initial steps I put in the other comment:

31337,

Yep, never thought I had allergies. I was prescribed an antihistamine for a sleep disorder, and noticed this doesn’t happen to me when I take antihistamines.
