Nicotine addiction isn't that bad - tobacco companies encourage the belief that it's more severe to keep people smoking
  • Thank you for your detailed response, and I'm sorry you had to (and will have to) go through this. Feel free to send me a link to your writing if it's publically available. Philosophically it's a really interesting subject, but realistically it's quite revealing of how we are failing as a society.

    Your comparison to Neanderthals would surmise we drove them to extinction while morally or ethically speaking they were the better species. Are we the baddies?

  • What are your favorite mashups?
  • I really like "All I Want For Christmas is the Beautiful People (Mariah Carey and Marilyn Manson)". I always like to share with people who complain about one of the songs during Christmas time, as they usually do enjoy this one!

    I assume the PipedBot will generate a link, otherwise I'll edit it in later

  • Why does deleting a post not actually delete it?
  • With the Sync app you can still see the comment if you hit "reply", as the reply view has a top box for reading the parent comment and making text selection and for some reason it retains the comment contents. Just an FYI

  • Emergency First Aid
  • I always thought you shouldn't put running water directly on the burned area but let the water hit above it so the running water goes past the burn, so to speak.

    My best guess is that it would be less shocking due to less kinetic energy hitting the wound. Searching online doesn't give me a conclusive answer to whether that is detrimental, helpful or neutral.

  • YouTube offers virtual trophies so you can feel bad about quitting premium

    I started a free trial and cancelled it immediately to have no ads while on holiday. Didn't realize they are offering some illusion of achievements as a "reward" for your attention, doubling as a FOMO weapon for when you want to quit.

  • It was an example of anecdotal evidence. Your post isn't really an opinion either, unless you count "I think the sky is actually not that blue" as an opinion that should be on this community.

    Not saying you're not allowed to have your opinions. But at the same time I'm allowed to call you out for being wrong

  • Lemmy apps that can swipe to next post?
  • I'm using Sync and when it was Sync for reddit I believe it was possible. Perhaps it's now a premium feature, idk. But I'm not paying for premium when the developer goes dark between updates. Not saying his development method is wrong, but it's just not for me.

  • My friends and family don't understand why I'm so happy with my air fryer notification.
  • That's what the world needs. Smart notifications. And I'm not being sarcastic, this is such a good example of how something like that enriches the user experience that a timer on your phone could never achieve. Keep it up!

  • Where to start..
