  • I'm European living in an European country with universal healthcare and I still can't afford or reach a doctor. First they make you call a nurse, that appointment will be in 5-12 weeks, then maybe if the nurse thinks you need the doctor you wait another 5-12 weeks to get to the doctor. And it costs. And also the possible exams or meds cost as well. Yes, less than in USA, but still too much..

  • Only way I have ever learned, in school, is by writing notes by hand into my own notebooks. Rewriting text book chapters, taking notes from teacher, writing answers down. It takes time, longer than taking notes on a laptop. But writing on laptop just doesn't "stick" the information into my head. Back in high school, I was the last student to still hand-in my essays etc in paper and my teachers were very happy to grade them, one told me it brought her good memories from the times there were less screens and teaching was easier. No wonder..

    When I had laptop in glass, it was very easy to play games, watch Netflix or scroll Reddit. I had no self-control, I was not able to force myself to focus in learning. They started using laptops and tablets in glasses when we were 13 and most of us found ways to play games etc on them, bypassed the restrictions. And we shared the knowledge on that. Oh, also I dropped out eventually.

  • Excellent point.

  • Kinda same here. I might start crying from frustration and this causes many issues, mainly it makes people misunderstand the whole situation. And trying to explain anything after that is pretty much impossible, except with my fiancé.

  • Edited a correct link to an explanation thread here.

    TLDR; An third-party front end for Lemmy has shadow banned many users, communities and instances without telling about it to it's own users, making those users unaware of majority of the content all across Lemmy.

  • It was probably One, but likely just a cheap and crappy skin from Wish or somewhere like that. User-error now that I think of it.

  • I have not seen a single comment or post that this would be unpopular take at all on this mess. Every place I look is people judging this, sharing the lists or making memes on whether they have been banned or not. Where are the users who agree with the hideyhole-shadowbanning? I'd like to see what their arguments are.

    // I went looking and found a few comments, but all of those were downvoted into oblivion and/or misunderstood/oversimplified the situation. So I think OP is in the popular side with their opinion.

  • Oh, alright, thanks! And yes, very likely my friend blocked the vents or that the skin was just very badly designed.

  • Just visited the library to exchange some CDs and books for new ones, also had to grab some veggies from the grocery store. Felt very anxious already when leaving the house, but got everything done at least. Gotta start cooking soon, spagetti bolognese tonight. And tomorrow night.

  • Sad to hear you got the auras too!

  • If I have to travel by public transportation and I need to decide between someone who thinks they're using perfumes moderately or a homeless drunk with shit in their pants - it's always the drunk. Sure shit, piss, sweat, human-grease and old substances are nasty and unpleasant smells. But those don't cause migraine and asthma for me.

  • Maybe, if the side-effects are close to nonexistent and I can afford it.

  • I couldn't hear the "jauho" at all, did a blind hearing once the videos came out. Blue dress, gold dress I guess. :D

  • I just keep overthinking what to say or ask to be polite so I end up being quiet and looking like I was having bad time.

  • Can the machine still breath with these on tho? I remember my friend bought very similar looking skins on their Xbox and the poor console overheated multiple times before they took of the skins.

  • It seems that in the near future there might be some strange, strong winds that weirdly affect only some areas of that town. To be precise, 33 areas of that town. Must be the climate change messing with the local weather?

  • "powder gang"

    I would like to add that it's very likely they were not yelling this, "jauhojengi", at all but "jallujengi" which would be about drinking Jaloviina, Finnish cut brandy. Link to a wikipedia page. I fucking love Jallu and will always spread the Gospel of Jaloviina.

    Why do I think music sounds better on my old MP3 player?

    How are you fighting against the Sun this summer?
