Yeah, it’s a pretty deep pit of depression. I suspect most people who consider themselves blackpilled are clinically depressed. Not at all useful. But then again, neither is being judgmental of them.

Hey now, let’s be fair!
It’s entirely possible he rigorously prepared and that was genuinely the best he could do.
Jesus Christ, this feels like it crossed a line even for him
So… Still unacceptably low. Got it.
I think Microsoft tried that, actually
The reason they don’t want you using your own WiFi access point is probably because dorms are prone to over congestion if everyone sets up their own WiFi network.
If you wanted to fuck with them-and you don’t mind spending money-then you could set up your WiFi and get internet via mobile carrier or starlink, so that you never actually have to agree to their terms. Then when/if someone comes around to bitch at you you can watch them slowly come to the conclusion that they’ve got nothing on you.
Otherwise your options are to follow the rules to the letter and live without vr streaming, or accept that you might get in trouble. Some WiFi routers can be configured to not advertise their network; annoying because you’ll have to manually enter the network information on every device, but it might keep you from getting caught.
As for connecting multiple devices without paying; there’s probably some creative ways to tunnel all your traffic through a single device to get around that. Could still get you in trouble if you’re caught.
If you’re doing anything that could get you in trouble with the school make sure you save the email in which they told you using your own router is allowed.
TIL Tesla has a factory (factories?) In Germany. My mistake.
Well they’re made here so it stands to reason they’d be a bit cheaper. No clue about the corolla tho
Fair enough, I can’t speak to any particular individual’s situation. There’s certainly folks who have a harder time adjusting to extreme temps, and those who simply can’t.
Rereading my above comment, it comes across as more of an obnoxious ‘pull yourself up by your bootstraps’ message than I was intending.
It definitely definitely is.
But it’s not a Trump echo chamber, hence their absence.
There probably are some right-wing instances, but I’m guessing they all got defederated for… reasons…
Conservatives already have their own platforms e.g. truth social, twitter, 4chan, others
The very format of Lemmy is more egalitarian. For example, it gives an enormous amount of power to individual users to filter out unwanted content, and decentralizes content moderation over a variety of instances. This doesn’t appeal to some right-wing ideologues who seem to value more hierarchical, centralized systems. Basically, Lemmy is more democratic (or has the potential to be more democratic) than other platforms.
Yeah, you kinda have to just take that bull by the horns, so to speak.
Drink tons of water, get a lot of exercise, learn to like the feeling of sweating. It also helps if you can develop a feeling of pride over your own suffering. It’s like eating spicy food: it gets easier the more you do it, but not if you hide from it.
Basically, go outside and suffer through it. You get better at coping.
Window units only, I assume?
The US mostly has central ducting connected to a single unit, for context.
Worth every penny, IMO, but then again 30C (86F) is a mild late spring day for me. We were tipping over 100F (38C) just a few days ago.
Based on a quick google search, the jury is out on whether artificial sweeteners affect blood sugar and insulin at all.
A study from the National Library of Medicine says they do but cites no source and the study itself isn’t reaaly about that; it does demonstrate that diabetics that drink artificial sweeteners have higher insulin resistance, but is that a causal relationship? If so, which is causing which?
The mayo clinic says straight up that artificial sweeteners don’t affect blood sugar at all.
There is a response to release insulin purely on tasting something sweet that’s been demonstrated in some mammals using artificial sweeteners, but nobody’s been able to consistently reproduce it in humans.
So… Eh? If there’s any kind of scientific consensus on this it isn’t clear to the layperson. Maybe I’ll start measuring my blood sugar before and after having a coke zero just to see for myself.
I’d be surprised if it’s even that high. Just going outside would spike your chance of skin cancer.
Others have cited sources about how wrong you are. It’s also just common sense. With the sheer amount of diet soda that the world drinks, it would be fairly obvious by now if aspartame was significantly carcinogenic.
Even the text you quoted (but didn’t cite, not helpful) only says that prolonged exposure may be a risk factor. Quite a leap to then say that “aspartame = cancer”
I believe its mostly soda water and caramel coloring (no duh)
The sweetness is from aspartame, a very common artificial zero-calorie sweetener.
Aside from that it’s gonna be a (trade secret, they’ll never tell us) mixture of artificial and natural flavorings. All virtually zero calorie, and probably in very small amounts.
Dunno, I don’t eat ice cream much anymore, but this sounds preferable to the solid blocks that bend spoons and you need steel wedges and a splitting maul to get out of the carton.
I mean, maybe but what will you do if they fail to appear before court? I don’t think the undead are super concerned with prison sentences
I’ve met a guy who no shit said this to me as if it was a justification for Israel’s actions in Gaza.
