That’s my Subscriptions feed, sorted by hot. This is the only post that’s about that orangered site.

PS: Oh, if you’re wondering, yeah, that’s from Lemm.ee I am using my lemmy.world account right now to make this comment though.

Wouldn’t that end up as porn?

Thanks for this tip. I’ll keep this in mind the next time I’d literally touch grass (like a camping trip or sth), lol!

If you’ve got a way to access your user profile via a browser (mobile works too), you can see your saved posts there.

On any page, click/press the hamburger icon on the top-leftmost part of your screen. It’d open up a menu (or an area) where you can see your profile picture and username at the very bottom. There’s a triangle next to your username, click/press that.

Another menu/area opens up that has options “Profile”, “Settings”, and “Logout”. Click/press “Profile” to see your user profile.

You’re then taken to a different page (which you can directly go to via https://your.lemmy.instance/u/your_username, for example:‌‌‌ https://lemmy.world/u/AllGoesUpMustGoDown). There, you can choose between “Overview”, “Comments”, “Posts” and “Saved.” That last link (to your saved posts/comments) won’t be visible to others (I tried).

PS: I tried looking for the same in wefwef, but I can’t find it as well.

PPS: Weirdly enough, it might be faster to just go directly via the address bar of your (mobile) browser if you know what you’re doing, lol!

Edit: Typos and shit. Added PPS part.

Yeah, I suppose it isn’t as crazy as I thought people would perceive it to be.

I’ve always used a Bluetooth speaker for listening to music in the shower. It’s much easier and doesn’t require me touching my phone.

Doesn’t this damage your Bluetooth speaker? Or is it, and especially its controls, waterproof/water-resistant?

Hahaha! Touché. I’ve had none. I’ve some weird thoughts as I drift off to sleep though.

I sometimes listen to music or watch videos in the shower. I double-bag it in clear plastic bags, and then put it in a safe location. When I change songs or videos, I‌ can interact with the screen like normal. Maybe it’s just my phone or the plastic bags I use–maybe both?

I use something like below, minus the ziplock:

I suppose there are actual products meant for making phones more waterproof in these situations, but I didn’t bother looking for those.

I’ve used my smartphone in the shower a handful of times already, but I usually take steps to double bag it (put it in a clear plastic bag upside down first, fold the excess, then put it in another clear plastic bag the right way up this time). I also just let it play music/video so that I can listen/watch while I shower.

It feels like a luxury to me when I do that.

My girlfriend’s grandfather decided almost overnight that he was an old man and suddenly began to act the part.

This has brought quite a funny mental image to me.

A man like this

suddenly turning into this

almost like magic.

Coming from someone who was your age before you were born: you do you.

‘Age’ is mostly just a matter of experience and perspective anyways. I could be as old as earth itself but lack the experience to know any better. On the other hand, you could have a better perspective on things (compared to me) because you have been through a lot, or is more thoughtful and reflective about things.

Not visually impaired, but I thank you nevertheless.

But, yeah, this actually made me curious: image-based memes, how do visually-impaired people enjoy them? How different would it be to compared to how sighted people enjoy them?

I am currently using LibreWolf (I am assuming that’s what you meant by librefox), and aside from getting used to a non-chromium-based browser (which is almost all of them nowadays), it’s really fine.

Besides, why wait to try it out? Get used to it before you have to.

I use adblock (uBlock origin) because the internet is nigh unusable otherwise. It’s incredibly risky (even irresponsible) to not have adblock turned on given the danger of malware, or malware in the guise of advertisements. However, I’d whitelist sites that are decent about it–though in practice, I find it risky to temporarily disable my adblock just to test things, much less to whitelist them.

Most of all, there are other, better, ways to support content creators in the internet.

I only wish I can actually go ahead and buy one; good pillows as well.

But then again, I’m just in a really shitty financial situation. Maybe when things turn around for me, I can invest on those.

Proper dental hygiene is something that one should make a habit from a young age. By the time one realizes its value, like I did, it might already be too late.

Ditto with sleep hygiene. Those two are habits that I think should be learned and reinforced from a young age.

It’s not just OPs strange and mysterious predicament that has made this thread epic, but also the genuine efforts of some of us to help OP in the midst of wild, off the wall, guessing.

And then there’s the misplaced reply that ended up in the perfect place.

And I’m glad to have seen it first hand.

That’s something that, depending on your POV‌ (sadistic DM or a player), might be either interesting, or really terrible.

But then again, it takes time (to know that you’re fucked) so I guess it’s just horrifying. You’d never know if you’ve fucked yourself up using the power.

The 2003 FMA anime was created back when the manga is still being published, and started to drift away from the manga such that at the anime’s midway point, it’s following a different storyline. Some plot points and characters are changed as the anime overtook the manga. Ultimately, it’s a different story as opposed to the manga and Brotherhood.

However, I like how the pacing is a lot slower, allowing me to get more invested and interested into the characters. It’s not as fast-paced as Brotherhood, and it’s a lot darker. There’s just something really somber about the entire thing that I can’t put my finger on.

I watched it on cable TV back then, but I think there are some sites still carrying it if you know where to look.

As for One Piece, thanks for the advice! I’ll go do just that once I have the time (to watch the first half–or I can just go full manga). I don’t think you’re proselytizing than you’re just excited to talk about something you’re really into, which is nice.

FMA 2003 for me, but I like Brotherhood as well.

And yeah, the only thing stopping me from watching One Piece is the sheer amount of episodes, lol! I want to start watching it, but I’m like, there’s no way I’d be able to watch thousands of episodes just to catch up!

Lol!!

Meanwhile, I was thinking more along the lines of FMA’s law of equivalent exchange, but since the way equivalent exchange is handled is kinda hand-wavy, I tried to find a way to make it more realistic, while trying to limit the power’s OP potential (hence, the random body part stipulation as initially stated).

TBH, I don’t watch One Piece, but had I done so, I would have given you a nod by saying you need to be concentrating to use the power (and would backfire by randomizing the target of the power if you lost concentration).
