I can hold my breath for 4 minutes. Does that mean I'm technically living more life than the rest of you?

I would eat it, but I would do so on rare occasions in the same way I might have a drink with friends once a month. I became vegetarian for health reasons in addition to the reasons listed by OP and I have grown to really enjoy meat-free eating, so I don't really miss it but would view it as a treat best enjoyed sparingly.

I'm a medical lab manager. I don't work in tech professionally, but it has always interested me. By default I handle all my labs technical issues. Lol I loved using reddit via a 3rd party app and was disgusted how things were handled so I have come here to test the waters. So far I'm finding this exciting and I'm having fun!

I literally got the same message a few days ago and immediately showed my wife. She laughed a little TO hard if you ask me, but whatever. Lol

I'm an EEG/Sleep technologist and an older coworker just gifted me an ancient book with a similar image inside that may have the genitals. I'll check when I'm back in my office and upload if applicable. 👍🧠🍆

Same here.

A Serbian film is tops for me. I watched it on my day off while my 2 year old daughter was taking her mid-day nap and when she woke up I couldn't bring myself to pick her up out of the crib. I just felt too compromised by what I had just put into my eyes to touch her for a while.

I got a couple Rubik's cubes for my kids a few years ago for nostalgia and they didn't want anything to do with them once they realized it wasn't easy to fix.

I tried to encourage them to keep plugging at it but they said "how am I supposed to do this if you can't?" I realized they had a point so I downloaded an illustrated book that takes you step by step through the beginner method, and after a couple of hours I solved it!

I felt like I had climbed Everest and the first thing my kids did was scramble it again as soon as I showed them. That was the beginning of me getting into cubing as a hobby, and I have to say it's one of the LEAST expensive hobbies I've ever been a part of!

Like with any hobby there are entry-level cubes and then enthusiast cubes that are more feature-rich and expensive. But the Delta between the two is surprisingly small. The cube that I use the most is one that has won world records and it was about $20 I think?

I have bought several variations of the 3X3 and other form factors. I have also bought a few as gifts as well as a Bluetooth connected cube with an accompanying robot and I don't think I've spent more than $300-$350 total for the lifetime of the hobby.

That said you could easily be competitive with a world class cube, a timer, a mat, and some "Cube Lube" for maintenance all for about $60-$80 no prob. It's about the only hobby I have my wife fully endorses, lol.

I don't mean to nitpick, but you're likely just sleep deprived. You probably don't get enough sleep or the quality of your sleep just isn't very good because of an issue like sleep apnea. When your sleep sucks, a simple bump in blood sugar from lunch is enough to throw you into a neck-breaking tailspin. The more you know... 🌠

God I hope not!

I know this isn't exactly what you were asking for, but this looks promising for people that want what essentially is the anti-cybertruck:

Is there a way to see a list of the posts I have upvoted and downvoted like I could with Boost for Reddit or is tracking those metrics limited by the lemmy platform? I have been missing this info in Jerboa and just assumed it would be tracked in Boost for Lemmy.

Yes. I got two for my oldest children as Easter gifts. They scrambled them and after a few minutes of frustration, left them lying on the floor.

I encourage them to keep trying to solve them but they told me " what chance do I have if you can't even do it?" I thought about it and realized that they were right.

I downloaded a PDF of a Rubik's beginner guide I found online and solved it in about an hour. I felt like I had conquered the world!

While bragging to my wife I saw my youngest scrambling it again and my heart sank. My wife saw my reaction and said "what's the big deal? Don't you know how to do it now?"

I explained that I had essentially cheated, but had to admit that the steps weren't as hard as I had imagined. I decided then and there that I was going to learn and eventually memorized the beginner method!

After getting a speed cube and lots of practice, I started averaging about 2 mins. After watching some videos online I decided to give the CFOP method a try. It felt like starting over but I was patient and now I can do it in close to 30sec.

"possible"

The convenience was why I started primarily streaming years ago. Unlike in years past I am never without an Internet connection so the motivation to download the content locally and manage/archive has dropped tremendously for me. Glad people like you are still out there, though. Otherwise there would be nothing to stream!

No, but the closeness in orientation explains why foot rubs are erotic. Stimulation of the foot and toe region of the brain will affect the neighboring genital region causing arousal.

When playing music from USB-C the audio precessing is happening in the adapter, not the phone. You may want to get a different/better adapter and that should solve your problem with low volume.

This one from Amazon sounds good, gets crazy loud, and is very inexpensive:

"visual storyteller" 😂

As far as I can tell, I'm actually in the vast minority in that I use the service on a family plan and with my DJ gear. Streaming for DJs is being removed from family plans and it now requires me to pay for an individual plan + $9 a month in addition to what I'm already paying for the wife and kids, so I'm thinking about canning it.

I second this. I have huge feet (US men's 15 extra wide) and after a lifetime of cramming my feet into shoes that fit "good enough" I'm developing bunions along with other aches and issues. After a particularly painful weekend on my feet I decided to see if the Internet had any suggestions and I fell down the barefoot shoe rabbit hole. I initially balked at the price and styling of most brands I saw but the cheaper options simply didn't come in my size. I decided to go for it and got a pair of Xero shoes since they make a men's 15 that isn't too hideous and I haven't looked back. Best decision I have made in the last 2 years.
