Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL 95% of Americans don't get the minimum recommended amount of fiberEnglish
22·22 hours agothey can’t eat the minimum recommended amount of fiber, because their toilet pipes are smaller in diameter than other regions. it would clog every time, if it’s not soft enough, instead of just a bit more than other regions.
nice. also reminds me of the movie Edge of Tomorrow

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•The total combat losses of the enemy from 24.02.22 to 14.12.25English
2·2 days agoI think the kremlin would be an easy target, but hasn’t been worthwhile yet. If it was clear putin is inside, it would probably be levelled already, even tho the Ukrainians would likely be uneasy destroing this historic site, in war you can’t always be respectful with that.

2·2 days agois this some sort of linux? if so, try ctrl+alt+f1 through f12 (to switch virtual terminal) one of them may drop you to text mode CLI login where you can use programs like ps, top, kill and killall to pick and force quit programs. you can then return with chvt or ctrl+alt+f1 through f12 to your session. it can sometimes be confusing because often one VT is the GUI login. if you get that, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re logged out. your session is just on another VT.
i think that’s just a movie thing, because AFAIK it has always been harrassment or even sexual harrassment in most countries.

103·4 days agoI’m pretty sure humans can learn how to sleep well. That’s what babies do after all.
Newborns sleep only like 1 or 2 hours, then wake up for a bit, then sleep again for 1 or 2 hours and so on. It takes them months or years to get it right.
If a baby can learn it, you can probably learn it as well.
Also, there are sleep labs btw… They monitor you during sleep and give advice, but I don’t like the concept, because it’s not your usual bedroom and therefore flawed.

NoSafetySmokingFirst@sh.itjust.works•Be Pet, Gay DogsEnglish
11·4 days agofirst step in “be pet gay dogs” is getting yourself a nice collar
















it could be that the intent is the problem, not the words: if whatever the word currently is, is often being used as an insult because of its meaning, the word slowly becomes an insult notion itself. it will not matter how many times it’s replaced.
if you think about it without emotion, it seems “retard” itself could have been chosen in good faith. we know the word is also used in other situations without negative intentions, like slow-release pills etc…
