What's something weird and mostly useless that you can do with your body?
  • The trick is that while you hold your ears 'open', you have your lungs try to not breath out but you don't close your mouth. This lets the heart beating against your lungs be what pushes air in and out and then you hear the sounds of the air pulses as it moves past your eustachian tubes in your throat. Making sure your lungs are as full as possible is required so the lungs push against the heart.

  • What's something weird and mostly useless that you can do with your body?
  • I can do this. If I'm in a really quiet area, I like to take in a deeper breath and then exhale as slowly as possible while doing it, which then allows me to hear my heartbeat. Super nifty.

    I can also use my soft pallet to block airflow from my throat to my nose. Can you do that too?

  • What's some sex ed info you didn't know until embarrasingly late?
  • I learned in college (from my nurse girlfriend) that if a girl is taking antibiotics that it invalidates her birth control pills for the month and you need to use condoms until after her period.

    Spread the word, brothers.

  • NSFW
    How can I deal with strays?
  • When I was a kid my dad would trap local stray cats, drive 50 miles away and then release them. If you have a forest a fair distance away you could do the same. It's not a great solution, but it's something.

  • Carrying on an old tradition. What features / issues should I work on next?
  • If you click on the 3 dots to access the post options for a post from that instance, there is an option to filter out just that community or even that whole instance. I've done that with several non-english instances.

  • Feature request: option to view instance when viewing community on instance

    I love the new option to view instances. It would be great to have the ability to search for an instance or, when actively viewing a community, a button or context option to view the instance. Similar to how when you are viewing a post you could click on the community name to view the community. There are times when I'm browsing everything and see a new instance and want to view more but I can't find it in the list of instances.

    Thanks for all the hard work LJ.

    [BUG] Logging into an account with a default instsnce other rhan lemmy.world treats the instance as a remote instance
  • I heard a "friend" was unable to load his subscriptions feed on that same instance in sync but loaded local, everything, and individual communities just fine.

  • Feature request - custom community groups

    Hey, LJ. Loving the app so far.

    Would be cool if we could group multiple communities together and even have several different groups so we could view that group rather than a single, local, or everything.
