legit, here in sweden we got a pamphlet about how we live in troubled times (again) and what you should do and be prepared for, one of the things it mentions is to just buy an extra package of rice or pasta or such every now and then and keep that stored away just in case.
If you live in an apartment (especially an older one from when war was fresh on people’s minds) go check if you have an extra pantry in the cellar, that’s where you should stock up on water and shelf stable foods.

why would you be supposed to cut your hair in any specific way? are you in the army or something?

- Comment on We need more signs like this posted everywhere 21 hours ago:
we have some newer crossings that shine a bright red/green light onto the ground in front of the crossing, people refusing to look up from their phones is unlikely to change and at least this way they won’t walk into traffic, plus presumably it’s actually moreso for general accessibility than phone users specifically :P

i have to wonder if just breathing more protects against lung cancer somehow

trying to get rid of the tools is pointless, the data is out there for those who want it anyways.

you should also always assume a sufficiently willing person can find your identity, don’t post anything sensitive online, don’t post anything that would encourage those with resources to find your identity, and if you’re e.g. a politician only post online to explicitly non-anonymous accounts. If you have a protected identity/location/that stuff, just don’t post online at all.

it’s perfectly fine at e2e encryption, especially if you’re not federating.

“Open IRC federation is basically never used anymore”
so you admit IRC isn’t federated, lmfao

tbf 30m is an arbitrary distance, just go as far as you can reach without losing sight of the trail and maybe dig an extra deep hole instead.
- Comment on How to poop outdoors in a way that won’t harm the environment and other hikers 3 days ago:
is there a general term for this? it’s something that applies basically whenever we humans do anything these days and yet barely anyone thinks about it, it’d be good to have a word to throw at people when telling them about it
- Comment on How to poop outdoors in a way that won’t harm the environment and other hikers 3 days ago:
bag of hole dig

okay so yes you’re not serious and just trying to get a rise out of people, great to have that confirmed.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 1 week ago:
huh? how is the freezing point and boiling point of water made up? how is the temperature of the human body better in any way?
The freezing and boiling points of water are by far the most logical reference points since anyone who wants to calibrate a thermometer will have access to water, and needs only go to the nearest ocean and bring some water to freezing and then boiling and making marks at each.
Celsius is the precise opposite of random.

- Comment on Reddit lost it 1 week ago:
i mean i’m pretty sure we can enable people to communicate if they’re at all conscious and mentally able to communicate, stephen hawking was able to write despite literally only being able to move his eyes reliably. So long as a person can intentionally move one muscle we can rig something up to interpret it as morse code.
is it great? no, these methods fucking suck, but they do work and we don’t need AI to do it.
- Comment on Reddit lost it 1 week ago:
at the very least it should run on a machine physically sitting in your home, and have a memory measured in years
like holy fuck how can you get emotionally invested in a “”“person”“” who will forget things (or simply restart entirely) after like a month of talking to it and might just be shut down because the company moves to a new model???
