Grippy socks are standard issue for all in-patients in most US hospitals because they prevent falls and the floor is nasty. Seriously please wear them during your stay.

Alicecisnt, in let there be beer

I don’t get it. It’s addictive, disgusting, bad for your health, makes you make bad choices and then feel like garbage the next day.

I mean I still drink it because of my first point but I hate it.

ArcticLynx,

I drink it because all the objectively better alternatives are illegal

mexicancartel,

“Better” or “worse”?

ArcticLynx,

weed in comparison to alcohol is less bad, but, just like so many other drugs, illegal (in my country)

MossyFeathers, in Honestly, fuck the diamond industry

Honestly, fuck diamonds in general. Normalize jewelry with unnatural laboratory gems. The old gems are boring, bring on the synthetic glowy gems.

Edit: damn, you can get chunks of reject sapphire made for F35 fighter jet windows on their new store. They’ve got some pieces over 1kg.

SternburgExport,

Diamonds are great…

…as tools in the hands of the working class.

My wedding ring was 30 dollars on Etsy. It has just as much meaning as a 10k diamond to me.

Mine was literally a piece of stainless Steel my mate turned into a ring. Even made me spares, love them.

Stainless Steel is the alloy of miracles. Fuck the naturally occurring rock, I want the alloy millions would fight to the death over for most of human history.

I got my wife her dream ring with synthetic stones. Her idea.

vikinghoarder,

Those look interesting

MossyFeathers,

They are so fucking cool. If I had the money, I’d have a room that’s just these gems+blacklights. There are some that change color based on the wavelength of UV light they’re exposed to. Some glow a different color under UV than they do under normal light. Some are both fluorescent and phosphorescent, meaning they light up in response to UV, but then they can maintain their glow temporarily. Some change color based on the angle you view them at. They’re so fucking cool.

moosepuggle,

Holy shit I need blacklight jewelry! I got lab alexandrite and lab moissanite for my wedding ring, but I didn’t know I could get SCIENCE gems! And I do a ton of confocal microscopy where we use dichroic for splitting the wavelengths! Thank you for this link, I’m def buying all my jewelry from here from now on!

balderdash9, in I don't pay my family to hang out with me and do me favors 8h a day.

Family that doesn’t want to give you overtime pay, paternity leave, two-week notice before termination, etc., etc.

Imgonnatrythis,

TbF, my family totally wouldn’t want to do any of that either

lugal,

“Now that I birthed a child, I need paternity leave from my family. I spent that time with my chosen family at work. Can you look after my baby in the meantime?”

“That’s a reason for me to break up. Here is my 2 weeks notice.”

notasandwich1948, in Good Morning! Hope everyone has their checklist for the day!

Spectranomica, in Microsoft Edge is actually good lmao

To be honest I’d still be on Windows if MS hadn’t screwed me out of the license I bought through the MS store and attached to my MS account. I do kinda miss the new Bing assistant in Edge, that was neat to screw around with for free while I was on that OS

dRLY,
@dRLY@lemmy.ml avatar

There are .deb and .rpm versions of Edge for Linux. Doesn’t get mentioned on the main download site until you scroll below the Mac/iPhone/Android options.

SourWeasel,

You can use it on other browsers with a little bit of work, changing user agents and things like that.

CCF_100, in Microsoft Edge is actually good lmao

I use arch btw Edge sucks

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

Edge is a decent browser. Second best after Firefox.

oatscoop,

The cool thing about browser choice is there are no “correct” answers – it’s personal preference.

So don’t let the fanboys get you down. You’re entitled to your opinion even if it is wrong.

IzzyData, in Memes needs moderators
@IzzyData@lemmy.ml avatar

I think memes also needs a couple more rules. Specifically I think the posts should be memes.

Sibbo, in let there be beer

Someone should re-evaluate their drinking habits.

Granixo, in A perfect fit
@Granixo@feddit.cl avatar

I don’t get it.

Stamets,
@Stamets@startrek.website avatar

Those are grippy socks. They’re often given to patients when they’re admitted to hospital. Over the past few years they’ve become synonymous with being admitted to a mental health ward.

The meme is saying that they’re afraid of being honest to their therapist because their therapist might admit them to a psych ward against their will.

Psych Ward Socks | Know Your Meme. A version of the meme I posted is even used in there as an example, funnily enough.

TheyCallMeHacked, in The three most common 2D transformations.

I too am at a loss as to where the meme is

miss_brainfart, in They'd better be going through some real shit
@miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml avatar

Remember, kids:

  1. Check your mirrors
  2. Set your blinker
  3. Turn your damn head and look
  4. Change lanes / Turn

Also, if you’re turning:
Set your blinker to let others know what you plan on doing before you brake.

meltylikecheese,

You should go in tour in the South giving seminars. In NY you will guaruntee get pulled for not signaling a turn or a lane change. In Mississippi, where I am now, the only blinkers are the ones that got hit by accident at the last turn, in a car that’s been going straight for the last 10 miles, with a driver going 15mph under the speed limit getting visibly frustrated trying to figure out what that dadgum ticking noise is. I had a cop almost hit me the other day changing lanes with no blinker.
