I don’t know whether to be flattered that they consider Lemmy a serious enough platform to farm responses or be pissed that they have infected Lemmy like they did with sites like Reddit.

Laptops with no intake dust filters.

Actually, no, any computer with fans that doesn’t have a dust filter is a terrible design.

Divide and conquer. A united population is harder to subjugate.

IDK I didn’t think that much into it lol

Hmm. Are there known cases of illness known from snow melt? It’s not guaranteed clean like domestic potable water, but I can’t imagine it carries too much by natural water standards, either.

There’s always a risk of bacteria. Maybe not super high a risk, but getting food poisoning while lost in the woods can really screw you over.

The world will recognize the good deeds you do

Ideally you’d use an external heat source to melt the snow so you’re not wasting your body heat on it (it’s also generally a good idea to boil water of unknown quality before drinking it to reduce the risk of getting sick, which would be especially bad if you’re lost in the wilderness). Failing that, I’ve also heard people recommend filling a water bottle with snow and putting it in between the layers of clothing you’re wearing so it’s not directly touching your skin, that way you don’t lose a bunch of heat really quickly.

Bypassing authentication or checks by incorporating a statement that always returns true, and doing an ‘or’ operation with the statement being injected. It manipulates the return value of the SQL statement to make it always return true, so if the website is checking if the statement returned true to indicate, for example, the password is correct, it will now think that was the case.

Maybe not exactly what you’re asking but I grew up and live in Vancouver, Canada, which is really close to the US border. Obviously both sides speak English but I feel that the accents and slangs bleed across. I don’t really know if I’m considered to have a Canadian or American accent, or where the distinctions lie.

A lot of outdoor survival “common sense” can get you killed:

Moss doesn’t exclusively grow on the north side of trees. Local conditions are too chaotic and affect what side is most conducive to moss. Don’t use moss for navigation.

Don’t drink alcohol to warm yourself up. It feels warm but actually does the opposite: alcohol opens up your capillaries and allows more heat to escape through your skin, which means you lose body heat a lot faster.

Don’t eat snow to rehydrate yourself. It will only make you freeze to death faster. Melt the snow outside of your body first.

Don’t assume a berry is safe to eat just because you see birds eating them. You’re not a bird. Your digestive system is very different from a bird’s digestive system.

If you’ve been starving for a long time, don’t gorge yourself at the first opportunity when you get back to civilization. You can get refeeding syndrome which can kill you. It’s best to go to the hospital where you can be monitored and have nutrients slowly reintroduced in a way that won’t upset the precarious balance your body has found itself in.

The sky is actually the entire colour spectrum with a bias toward the short wavelength end of the spectrum, which is why it appears pale blue-ish white.

The immune system is strong and defends your body against germs.

Which is why you should get vaccinated.

Vaccination primes your immune system so it can mount a coordinated response the first time it actually encounters the pathogen.

If you’re only shoplifting small amounts I wouldn’t worry about cops either, for small amounts they’ll just ban you from the store, at least where I live idk about everywhere.

Beware. A lot of stores, namely large chain stores, are tracking people who shoplift with cameras and won’t press charges until you’ve cumulatively stolen enough for it to qualify as a serious offence with jail time and permanent criminal record.

I’m fine, just needed to vent my deep down feelings. Thank you.

You have the absolute right to skip his wedding, no one can stop you. But like others have mentioned, it would be effectively cutting ties with him permanently. Maybe that’s exactly what you want, maybe you’ll be better off without him, maybe this is the catalyst for you to cut your losses with him and move on, or maybe not. We don’t know the nuances of your relationship with him, so I don’t think anyone on this anonymous forum can make a good faith decision for you, you will have to make it for yourself.

Thank you for giving a shit about me. ❤️

I’m just waiting to die at this point. Fuck this life. Fuck this world. I’d kill myself if I wasn’t such a pussy. I keep living with the vague hope that things might get better, but deep down I already know it won’t.

Printer ink costs more per milliliter than human blood.

Try it with a Soylent Cola!
