So swearing is the natural human booster and it is scientifically demonstrated?

You dislike what I say, great. Makes the world a more interesting of a place. But try to disagree with me beyond a downvote. Argue your point. Let’s see if we can reach a consensus between our positions.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Am I (An) Asshole for wanting politically correct insults?
2·3 days agoGo barroque. As in absurdly elaborate on what you throw at people you dislike.
Spanish have a saying that gets thrown at people that like to run their mouth. Very loosely translated it says something along the lines of “May you swallow a peacock and every every feather turn into a straight razor”. Takes some time to put it out. Gives a person time to get their blood settled.
But please don’t forget insults have always been basic and directed or sprouting from prejudice. I understand and respect what you are trying to put forward but it will not be am easy task.
We are basic creatures. We still go for what superficially differentiates one from another. It’s about anger and fear. It’s primal. Spinning this off and putting something elaborate and as personalized or generic as possible is a tough endeavour.
I personally find amusing to insert some nonsense into my speech when letting out an expletive and for some obscure reason I tend to go for vegetables and gardening.
You can be asked to go tend your cabbage patch when you miff me and I would really want to see you go away.
But this works very poorly outside my language.
Good luck on your quest and have fun.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something you can see, hear, smell, etc., that others can't?
2·4 days agoIt should. Seeing in low light is a very useful thing. And we could dispense some of the light polution we create.

13·4 days agoLow light vision.
I was always very sensitive to bright lights and sincerely fear I’ll go blind at my last years but I can see at higher definition under low light conditions.
My vision stops processing color and I get higher definition of contrast. I’ve walked through dark areas with no difficulty, where others simply said they could not see a thing.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I'm new to lemmy, came from reddit. What's the lemmy etiquette like? How different is it from reddiqutte?

Interactions like:
“Take my hard won [insert currency name here] in the shape of this award and get out!”
Nothing for nothing, get your things for free.
I think I parked my only 775 about 10 or 12 years back. But paradoxically I ran an AM3 cpu from roughly the same era until this summer and it coped with my needs.
Are we drinking the same stuff? Put the cork back and keep it in a cool and dark place and it will keep for months.
I have always the “holy trinity” of ports at home - tawny, ruby and white - and its well over a year to go through the a set.
I’ve drank them all: ruby, tawny, LBV, rosé, reserve, special reserve, etc. The oldest I ever tasted was over 50 years old, an heirloom reserve of a private producer.
A Port should not sediment that much. The high grade alcohol used to snuff the fermentation kills off the yeast and the cask aging sets the lion’s share of the sediment. That much sediment signals poor quality wine or wine that “broke” in the bottle. It may be still drinkable, sure, but I would not serve it.
Porto wine takes a long time to spoil. I wasn’t concerned with that. And I’m glad it helped. But try to drink it slowly. It’s not a drink for a single sitting.
I’m from the land of Porto wine.
And I can assure you that a wine with that much sediment would go straight to the bin. It is expected for a Porto to settle a bit over the years but not that much.
Not knowing how much you forked over for that bottle, I’m going to say it was too much.
Regardless, cheers!
Porto is the right wine for all ailments, be it physical or spiritual. Enjoy.
Off the top of my head I can name one banking institution that solely exists through a mobile application and more and more banks are moving in the same direction, making their conventional websites less functional.
So it just disappeared? How long did ot last? And is the same skin usable or could it resurface or reactivate the old tattoo?
Now I’m even more curious.
How long will those last? Can you expand a bit on it?
Mine too but I always thought I was an odd thing.
I’m going to check a bit further. I would like to have a MSI based system. My (most probably) next monitor will be an MSI curved.
I have a motherboard that reaches a version that requires OS loading. It has an .exe file. No files directly loadable at BIOS level but I always assumed it an oddity.
Currently, I’m running a Gigabyte AB350M-DASH and I was able to load several BIOS updates directly by USB. However, from a version onwards it requires loading from the OS.
I thought it was just an isolated case but it seem to be a more common situation.
That’s lung cancer territory!







I do that as well but for some reason it doesn’t have detrimental effects on me.
I often hit myself on the nose with the phone because I fall asleep. In the morning, it helps get my brain gearing into motion.
