Technology@lemmy.world•Judge rules DOGE used ChatGPT in a way that was both dumb and illegal / The ruling restores federal grants that were shut down for ‘DEI’ prejudice.English
10·2 days agoWho is enforcing this? Saying it was illegal and to restore the grants is a good first step but they can just say no, not do it and face no repercussions so I don’t see how this solves anything.
The US “justice” system is toothless

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something that most people normally do that you find weird?
127·3 days agoI think it’s weird how obsessed people in general are with germs and dirt. Dirt can’t hurt you and most germs are harmless.
People seem to believe they and the world is inherently dirty and everyone and everything needs to be washed all the time and I just don’t think that’s true.
Unless something is a harmful pathogen or visibly/obviously dirty it’s really not worth worrying about

85·4 days agoA lot of people commenting here don’t seem to actually be from the prepper community and are giving very naive advice that requires you to have a lot of space, resources, knowledge and luck. Growing a garden is unequivocally not a good idea as your primary food source for a myriad of reasons, if you have the space, time, physical capacity, knowledge, context to grow a garden definitely do so, things like fruit trees, berry bushes and potatoes can be good options but don’t provide steady streams of food and lack protein. Generally long term shelf stable foods and “high value” items for bartering are what is suggested when prepping is being discussed. Don’t forget ways to provide yourself with clean fresh water too, that’s critical if infrastructure breaks down.
There’s a lot of resources out there on survival food prep, what is good, bad, safe, best practices etc. gardening is never suggested as a first line of defense. I’d suggest you dig into your local areas prepping community because the particular difficulties you may face, what’s available, what conditions you need to work around etc. will all be unique, plus learning to avoid problems with prepping preemptively will be the things that actually help. Having enough to share and trade with other people is also highly important.

3·4 days agoGrowing enough potatoes to sustain yourself much less multiple people, a plant that needs 90-120 days between planting and harvest, isn’t a reliable plan. It’s definitely one of the best options for supplementing fresh foods but it absolutely should not be the foundation of a persons survival prep.

6·4 days agoProducing food, year round, to feed yourself/family is actually insanely difficult. Small scale farming that provides year round is no small task and generally not considered “good” advice for prepping. Do that if you want to supplement sure but you’re going to die if your only source of food is the garden in your yard. Farming is a very labor intensive and resource consuming, highly contextual skill that requires highly specific knowledge with a huge variety of variables that can also just flat out fail through no fault of your own, it’s not a safe plan for survival.
Long term shelf stable foods like rice, beans, grains, pastas, canned goods, canned protein, dried goods, dried spices/seasoning and salt all need to be stocked before you consider growing fresh food as part of the equation. Also canning/preserving food will be a huge task if you plan to rely on your own grown food, which is in and of itself a time consuming skill that requires the correct tools and knowledge to do well and safely.
If the time comes that your only food option is home grown food you’re as good as starved in basically the entirety of the US and I’m sure most other developed nations. If you happen to live in an agricultural valley that has actual real, dedicated farms with farmers who actually know how to produce food at scale you will survive longer but it will still be very difficult and social connections would likely serve you better than wasting all your time and energy working a yard garden that produces a measly haul, go spend that time doing what the farmer needs so you can barter.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Those that sleep in bed with a significant other, how do you deal with snoring?
5·4 days agoSlightly pulling the pillow can work if the person isn’t a horrible chronic snorer. Making a person move their head while sleeping will often make them adjust their whole body readjusting their airway and that can both help them sleep better and snore less but it only works on light to moderate snoring, people who are super loud when they sleep probably have something going on that isn’t just position of sleep.
The examples listed are wayyy more obscure than schizophrenia also this hot take
Some researchers have suggested that both premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and the more severe premenstrual dysphoric disorder(PMDD), which have currently unknown physical mechanisms,[27][28] are Western culture-bound syndromes.[29][30] However, this is controversial.[29][31]

I’m a woman, I’ve noticed that while Lemmy is better than some spaces it’s very male centric in very stereotypical ways, I love your stuff I think it’s great for exactly the reason it triggers them - the point isn’t that men are getting triggered, the point is that my perspective is being validated too!
Keep it up

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If refusing to see your dying parent "wrong"?
7·4 days agoIf you actually mean celebrated a non abusive parents death yeah that’s wrong, that’s psycho level stuff.
If you mean more like feels relieved by I think that’s way more of a gray area.
I still think it’s bizarre to not visit them regardless especially if they didn’t do anything bad towards you but feeling relief over a death of a loved one isn’t inherently problematic.

It’s still pretty lazy for a doctor to just agree with your own non professional take on the situation without even looking into it. The fact she was on the ship is by its self a reason to test for it/consider it a serious risk. It’s one thing if this was a random person, but she was from the Hanta Virus ship
