Seems like in real world use it makes a difference.

From another thing I read, people have a tendency to not apply enough sunscreen or apply it correctly. I’m sure if everyone did it perfectly it wouldn’t matter. All I know is anecdotally, when I switched to 100 I stopped getting sunburns, and I have been in situations with people who used their own lower spf, got a little burned still, and I came out of it pale white.

The price might be higher, but a quick look on Amazon and I’m seeing more than spf affecting that. The brand I buy is about 1.80 (usd) per ounce, and i see other brands with less spf for more. I see other brands with the same spf for less, and it seems like it’s between ~1.10 per ounce to ~2.80 per ounce so I’m not really bothered by my price. I don’t know anything about the environmental differences between spf so I won’t comment on that.

Get 100 spf, I’ve never even tanned on that shit.

Even if people believe that (and I know they do 🙄) that then gives you a niche for a private business to fill. City store always busy? This private store is more expensive but you don’t have to wait in line as long. People will pay that difference to save time, especially in NYC.

Focus on users as well. Not that many people care enough to come post articles on here about Trump or whatever.

LOT of furry porn!

Adult Danielle Radcliffe I don’t really think “that’s Harry Potter”. Probably because the beard.

Wesley snipes is blade though.

It’s also just a mayor. Sure mayor of NYC but it’s barely influential.

Good call. The show is fun in the way of them constantly one upping each other, like oh what are they gonna have him do!

But the ending is so… so bad. And in a sense I get it, if you write it how people would really act no one’s ever going to get caught, there’d be no drama, just a guy killing other guys with a book. But damn…

I watched the whole thing and I agree.

Am I doing it wrong or is this it for a while until he can stay awake while changed and fed? Is it normal? I feel like I’m just drugging a child to sleep.

This is it. The entire goal is to keep this kid alive while he eats and grows. All the pressure to make sure the kids not a dipshit is irrelevant at this stage. He doesn’t understand that he has hands yet, let alone doing math.

As for the bottle feeding, it seems to be fine. Apparently only about 8% of infants in the US ONLY feed directly from the breast. (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8476436/) But I only searched for it in kagi with the academic filter and spent at most 5 minutes reading, so don’t trust me there.

I agree. I don’t know if I got lucky in that i have consistently been told to question things through my life by teachers, by my parents (who don’t question things anymore), by people online.

I also think it’s just how people work. What is it, every dictatorship has used propaganda to convince people they want these things? People heard trump say he needed to be a dictator for a day and they were happy about it. The only difference is it’s easier to do now i would think.

They probably think they are getting the truth so they don’t think they need to look any further into it.

I have seen enough that I know I don’t like and I don’t agree in general with JD Vance, for instance, so I’m not going out to find redeeming qualities about him. I’m also not really watching things from him or trump for that matter. But, my brother who ended up going the opposite way of me politically, said the other day that Vance is “down to earth” and will likely go for president after trump. I see clips all the time of him speaking that show me he’s not down to earth, but I’m also not seeing clips of him tailored to show me that it is true.

I can imagine that if you’re only being fed the positive narratives of your side and only negative things about the “other” side you’re likely to think you already know what’s going on. We also know that both media and the almighty algorithms (like YouTube) will send you down these rabbit holes in the interest of views. If i don’t search, most of what I get about Vance from algorithm based social media are the memes with his distorted face. If that’s all you see, you’re probably coming away with the impression that this guy is a joke. So if you tell me he’s competent and down to earth, my initial reaction is that’s nonsense. Is he? Maybe. It’s not what I see and I’ve felt no need to look for it.

I have always been a nerd on the internet, so i have always been on these kinds of sites like Lemmy, reddit, imgur, old forums, where I can talk to people from all over the world. They have their echo chambers and little bubbles but it’s still a more diverse group of opinions than what you’re fed on sites like Facebook. But the usage on these sites is much lower, most people are not here. They’re either not using social media at all, or they’re on Facebook, tiktok, whatever. They’re only seeing the cropped images, edited clips, news that caters to what they want to believe. If everything’s telling you one thing, including things your friends and family are sharing online, why would you question it.

It’s not theirs to take over. There was barely any communication about this, they asked for admins a couple of times then posted about shutting down. They didn’t offer for someone else to host it.

In your example, if bluesky goes you lose it all (until/if their form of federation actually exists and is usable). If the Mastodon server I’m on (toot.community, because I like the name) goes, you move to another or host your own and keep on trucking.

When reddit did their API shit i left and lost the account, subreddits, apps, everything. When Lemm.ee announced it’s shutdown i moved to lemmy.zip and picked up exactly where I left off.

Today

Northeast US - weed whacker

It’s on there too.

I’m guessing, but this anti-feature was added about a year ago, maybe you already had the app?

I think that was also a vote. Honestly organic maps is kinda stupid too.

If i thought enough people would buy my shit I’d be on there too (I’m a guy). You mean to tell me i could potentially become rich by taking naked pictures and videos? It’s pretty saturated now, but even then most of them are making good money, and they’re not even dealing with it, they’re paying other people to handle the page and messages and whatnot.

The other option? Going to school, learning a skill, applying for a job, and maybe making enough to get by.

Edit: wait a minute this is just a bot account spamming questions.

Mine ended on the 5th, i didn’t renew it. It’s the first time since i got it that I didn’t but everything’s chinese rebranded shit there now and the shows are better if i torrent them.
