  • rather than taking away employee rights, the left is giving employees rights.

    Good, that's not what I am talking about

    rather than taking away minority rights, the left is legally protecting minority rights.

    Good, that's not what i am talking about neither

    . those are practical and effective policies.

    Cool I agree!

    this is largely your imagination and pointed conservative media and a poor excuse for selfish people to continue abusing vulnerable people for their own gain.

    Oh wait, so telling someone "your fears/points you makes, it's just your imagination" is a valid argument now? lol

    the fact that you don’t understand haven’t considered the difference between protected civil liberties and imaginary fake word hunts ... the conservative media you consume is.

    Well you didn't even bother to check if we are talking about the same points. Good on you I guess. You also somehow deduced I consume conservative medias, that's some skill!

    consider what you’re saying, consider the information around you.

    Consider what you are saying, consider the information about you.

    ... right is literally banning books in libraries over words...

    Banning books is dumb, I don't know what makes you say I d support it. It never occured to me to ban a book, and I am not planning or supporting anyone who does.

    Again 95% of your comment is completely beside the point, because you somehow assumed my view points without ever considering I actually have similar views, I just don't subscribe to every other random bullshit "the left" (whatever that means, because I don't consider myself "right" neither) does.

  • What groups you are unwillingly associated with? How you handle it?

    I ll start : I have been following a pretty known tech/Linux journalist, and always found he is a fun dude to listen to, with interesting tech takes

    The fact that he is also very openly "american conservative" (aka, religious & weapon nut, anti abortion, etc) annoys me, but i keep those things separate. And he does keep it separate too (politics channel vs tech channel), which is a great decision.

    NAC makes you insensitive to alcohol

    N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a harmless (EDIT: please check at least https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcysteine for possible side effects) compound which protects your liver, you can buy after searching like for 10 seconds

    I ve been taking it for a week (1 pill, 600mg per day) before noticing that drinking doesn't do anything. Went to a party, drank 3 pints of beer, one after another, with absolutely zero effect. Usually, just 1 pint is enough to get socially talkative, 3 pints of beer i am supposed to be very obviously drunk.

    Another time, drank a third of a bottle of wine (at my place, so it cannot possibly be watered down), the only effect was nausea (which never happened before), again, zero drunk-ness effect.

    Now, depending on people that anti-alcohol protection might be an advantage or drawback. I just found it interesting, so sharing here

    Edit: as one comment points out: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30019966/

    Piped/Invidious

    In the lght of recent events (gloogel complaining about uBlock) I tried to investigate other available options out there. While Piped.video definitely works, it looks like it is only fluid for popular videos, and as soon as I want to watch something a little more obscure, it is basically impossible, I have infinite wheel spinning.

    Have anyone here tried self hosting Piped/ Invidious, and could share a feedback about performance /usability ?

    Fresh water, anyone?

    The following activities:

    • Visiting a new place, making new encounters and otherwise having a memorable day
    • Kissing a girl you I never kissed before
    • yeah orgasm too

    All produce kinda the same feeling of drinking a glass of fresh, delicious water on a long, hot day

    I had this feeling so many times, and wondering how many people think the same?

    Some other clues which indicates I am not totally insane

    • in english, men are "thirsty"
    • in french, women are "fresh"
    • .. ?

    How do you call in English

    Imagine an XL table:

    _ A B X 1 2 Y 3 4

    If "A" and "B" are called "headers" what do you call "X" and "Y"?

    EDIT: thanks everyone, i ll go with "row headers" as opposed to "column headers"

    The current trend of drawn waifu/ anime porn/ child-looking-like sexualised girls is CRINGE af

    I just can't, and sadly it's worst in Linux community. Like dude's face hair makes him look 45, but no, he does a desktop with a cringy looking 15 old anime girl. (That, on top of hiz annoyingly high pitched voice but whatever) I just stop watching the video on the spot, it's beyond dumb.

    The stupid NSFW tag on Lemmy? I turned it ON to occasionally see boobs, not some drawn pictures of underage kiddo, this pisses me off so much, JUST FCKING STAHP with this shit.

    I have an impression suddenly, in a span of 2 years everyone started to jerk off on that bullshit and are proud to show it
