  Why don't people wear underwear under the padded bike shorts? Seems like it would help keep the shorts from getting stinky. Edit: i have learned a lot about friction here. Thanks!

  Learning to mask as you grow up leads to other problems? Found this article posted to another community, and thought to cross post it here. The gist of the article is that girls suffer in silence because they don’t match the profile of boys with ADHD, but i found myself relating to it very much, even though I’m not a girl, and my parents did know pretty early. Key Paragraph: And like many other issues regarding mental health, hiding only makes it worse. The effort to perform as neurotypi...

  What's something you know about philosophy? I was just thinking about how the last time i learned any philosophy was 15+ years ago, so i wonder, what’s something y’all know about philosophy? Let’s talk about it!

  Could heating oil subsidies be reduced or replaced with subsidies for installing electric heating and houses.? Oil and Gas get massive subsidies every year, but a huge part of it are the very popular heating oil subsidies that keep people alive in the winter. Could these be reduced or replaced if instead the government gave money towards families purchasing electric heaters and spending their money on that? Edit: USA but i assume the problem is not uniquely ours

  Do "Leafs" and "Leaves" mean something different to you? Grammatical Rule Non-withstanding? For me, a tree has leaves, but a salad has leafs. The Toronto Maple Leafs team individual players are Maple Leafs. I am confident in (mis)using grammar in this way but wondering if other people do it too?

  How does Banned work? I was reading a comment section and I saw that some people were banned, but the comment wasn’t removed. This got me to thinking: how are banned and removed treates on the threadiverse? When a moderator bans someone, do they choose whether to remove the comment, or leave it up for all to see if that is better? Is it that some clients autoremove banned users, and some don’t? Do some clients allow banned users to still poat in the community they’re bannes from, and it i...

  A linux gamer asks, "How do I install windows for just one game?" There is a game I am considering getting; it has been out for a few months now, and the devs are specifically blocking it from running under proton with a Kernel Level Anticheat which specifically blocks linux. Folks on the discussion boards made the point tht it is technically possible to install windows for just one steam game, so I am looking for a guide on how to do that? I’ve heard that if you don’t activate w...

  Government photo Id questions A friend of mine has to get their photo ID renewed. We are pretty sure this opens them to the risk of being automatically facially identified by the government and anyone who has access to the government database. Is it worth them trying to grow out a long beard and hairstyle to partially cover their features for the photo ID or would it be better for them to try to be clean shaven and then walk around society with the beard and hair?

  In Linux Mint, if I have an upgrade that is taking a long time, can I sudo shutdown -h +60 and walk away, or is there a better way? I don’t want the system to shutdown in the middle of the upgrade, but I’ve already started the upgrade in the GUI. Is there a better way, maybe involving the apt lock? EDIT: Thank you for all the helpful suggestions. Hopefully this helps the next person. My upgrade actually finished on its own while I was posting. 😂

  What is the magic sysreq combination? Buried in the Wikipedia article is what I remember, with a note saying not to use it any more. So what sysreq keys do you use to recover a non responsive system with a journaling file system? Before the advent of journaled filesystems a common use of the magic SysRq key was to perform a safe reboot of a locked-up Linux computer (using the sequence of key presses indicated by the mnemonic REISUB), which lessened the risk of filesystem corruption. With m...

  [Solved] How come I can post in a lemmy community, but I can't see any of my posts in the community feed? Some of us were talking about dropout.TV and I made a few posts on the community for dropout but the weird thing is I can’t see any of them on the community directly. I can see my post if I go to the link and other people can comment on it but I don’t see my post anywhere on the community feed. Is that normal or some kind of error? With Lemmy, piefed, or Blorp? Or Blahaj? Community: h...

  Hi! What do you like watching on Dropout and why? Hi! I made this post because of seeing the other post on asklemmy. I exclusively have watched Dimension 20 (D20) because I started out listening to all of Not Another DND Podcast (NADDPod) and couldn’t get enough. I don’t really get the On A Bus variant except it is somebody DMing who is taking the piss out of Brennan and the other DMs? But who is the elf lady and how do they know her? Also I heard that the latest Critical Roll has Brennan a...

  Just curious what people think about the other people who post AI stuff. I’ve seen a few in comments recently in other comms, and I just blocked the person posting, but I wonder if everyone just blocks them, new people reading them won’t get the social feedback not to do it? Maybe it is a better strategy to post a comment saying fuck AI instead to discourage these comments. What do you all think?
