I recently discovered fidget toys as a way of slowing my online shopping. Hasn’t stopped it, but putting it beside the phone decreased the phone time at least

Not to mention they started as a car lovers brand and are now just corporate for “I’m important”

2·4 days agoUltimate chicken horse with the GF BF6/HD2 with the boys Slay the Spire when I have nothing I wanna do
Looks to me like she did it in the bedroom with my two lost uncles who fled the country after ransacking the family mausoleum and stealing the family jewels
That reference is a nice touch.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an artist or public figure you still enjoy despite them being cancelled for bad behaviour?
7·8 days agoThanks for sharing - the more I know. Wasn’t aware of much of it

18·8 days agoDid Depp get accused of more than the Heard thing? He went through a trial and was cleared, I personally don’t think he deserves to be dragged, but that’s just me I know others disagree

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many possible humans are there?
1·11 days agoLiterally mind boggling. I made a correction and was wrong by a factor of 10 because I couldn’t accept it was that high. But she showed me a screenshot of the report…

2·11 days agoThat’s actually really cool to know. She was fairly confident they use the SNP method (it’s a third party provider), and described it the way you did. Sounds like full genome is possible but she didn’t think it likely, your explanation would support that.
Also, I made a correction to the numbers…I was very wrong lol

15·11 days agoMy gf works in human remains identification. On the bottom of the DNA identification reports, they have a certainty estimate:
1 in 19,000,000,000,000 (trillion) chance of being incorrect.
So if that’s any estimate of how many variations there can be, I’d say chances of repeats are pretty low lol
Note: I didn’t believe her when she quoted 1 in 13 trillion, so she double checked the next day. They seem… confident
Correction: I talked to her again, and was completely wrong, because my memory refused to accept the real number:
1 in 200,000,000,000,000 (trillion) chance of being wrong.
And to the commenter that commented about common identifiers, you are correct. She’s fairly confident they use the SNP method.
There’s also an entire subgroup that just don’t think that far. One of my very working class friends group has 3 kids, but when asked about his thoughts on the future has said things like “the climate is fucked anyway.” Somehow it hasn’t occurred to him his children have to live in that future…
Something about quantum physics and change the outcome by looking at it? There now it’s science
Haha that’s dangerous news - I am already a passionate seafood fan but alas, live in the dry lands.
Another comment you said you did your Master’s there. Can I ask if you enjoyed the experience? I’ve wondered about doing a European masters but Iceland had never crossed my mind until today
Actually my dream trip is the 10 day lap of Iceland, so yes, 1000% I will. Also, saved for future reference 😊
I got to do 24 hours in Reykjavik for a layover in early winter. Absolutely wonderful city
I see how, it’s not unreasonable :)
I took it at face value, but particularly enjoyed the absurdity of a situation that couldn’t happen; that such an innocuous song might get cancelled for being non-inclusive. A comment on the times, perhaps, but I think more reflective than judgemental
All good, easily forgiven. I found your comment somewhat amusing anyway due to the woke overtones of the cartoon
It’s pretty self-explanatory, even if you don’t know the common children’s tune or the reference to the headless horseman.




I did this today, for this exact reason.
Typically I’ll find home workouts for the first 3 weeks of the year, or go at known low times in the day
