So “I’d hit that” means in 300 years we’ll say hit instead of fuck?

This is the best answer in the thread. Add in eye contact and eyebrow gesture.

Might as well hold up a sign saying “I’m his dad” with that comment.

Approximately 15.5KHz. Not out of range for healthy human hearing. Most of us are damaged by noise pollution and blood pressure issues by the time we’re adults and high frequency sensitivities drop off first.

If a CRT is on in a large space with volume off, I can still hear it a bit, but mild tinnitus masks most of it.

Hypermobility can be a health risk indicator for more than just EDS. Consult your GP.

I graduated from this to accessing the muscles that open up sinuses, and can clear up most congestion with a little concentration. I wouldn’t have noticed except that I cured my headache problem that way, and it has baffled every health practitioner I mention it to.

c/Aphantasia FTW!

I got some training in this. I once had a task of waking everyone up at a forest temple by ringing a giant bell with a hammer over about 3 minutes, at 4:30 AM. Around 400 people relied on that bell to keep things going. But my alarm clock died at three days into a three week session. It was a no-speech retreat so I just dealt with it.

I didn’t miss a bell but the first couple of nights were iffy. Now I will sleep in unless something urgent is going to happen.

A nice wood/bamboo dish scrubber brush, or similar item(s) that is usually plastic but used every day.

I find the tagging system in lemmy more useful every day!

This is what false flag operations are for.

I’m sorry, did you just… oh lol never mind. I’m going to harvest this whoosh for wind power.

I repair Macs. Just use basic lithium battery practices:

• mostly keep charge between 30-80%
• charge fully if you are about to use
• long term storage with a 70% charge
• don’t run down to empty if you can help it
• don’t leave plugged in all the time
• avoid prolonged temperature extremes
• avoid shitty chargers, Apple chargers are expensive but generally worth it

Beware of add-ons that access hardware, for various reasons.

Apple batteries are rated for around 1000 cycles, or around 5 years of average use. Follow the above advice and you might eke out 1500 or so.

Ah I guess that was confusingly written, no you just need to have an email address to register an account, and when you register you get a verification email at that address and click on the link in the email to verify. Like almost any other social media.

I just did this to test out the process for a client who has to replace skype in their workplace, and it wasn’t bad.

I looked up servers on the web, picked the privacy DIY server, installed Element app, registered in the app using a “token” from the server website, confirmed via email - web link, and done, about 15 minutes plus figuring out the token part (had to reread instructions).

Nah bud, it’s part of a rising tide. Swim.

Good point. I hope it rotates to vertical orientation!

Not me, I am a damn dirty ape.

Upvote just for the excellent title pun.

A lot of Windows users moving to macOS leave apps running due to just clicking on the red button to close the window.

Check to make sure you don’t have an app running that is keeping the computer active, even in the background.

e.g. some data syncing apps, navigation device connections, wake-on-lan enabled with an active network-reliant app running

Use Activity Monitor in the /applications/utilities folder to explore all the stuff running.
