Ex-Reddit user so new to this platform. I enjoy scuba diving, summer sports and sharing experiences with friends and family. 
I believe in an open source internet and am anti-monopoly/big corp. the people are the power and it’s time to force change.

Hopefully soon. I want off this stupid fucking ride

I would have to say Jesus. Arguably the most influential figure in human history as far as how his story (whether you believe it or not) has shaped the world we live in now. Of course others would be in the conversation (Muhammad, Alexander the Great, Gandhi, etc. but if you could meet Jesus and see a miracle in person that would be quite the story to bring back

I went there before they bought the place and it was so gross haha. I swear the margaritas were 50% salt and food was microwaved at best. Everyone hyped it up so much and it was just sad. I’ll give it another go if I’m ever in the area again.

Did they change the shows? I remember they had a guy five off the waterfall but that was about it

I just had my 2 year sobriety birthday this month and I completely agree with you, however, I do think the culture in America is shifting. Millennials aren’t drinking AS much and Gen Z much much less. The social pressure to drink is waning somewhat and I live in a state that has the most drinking per capita in the country.

There’s a lot of N/A beers that have gotten much better to give people quitting an alternative (like nicotine gum or patches). Long way to go but I do think it’s trending in a positive direction for people struggling. I understand this isn’t something some people feel comfortable with - I was very hesitant to try one for the first time after quitting because I wasn’t sure if it would spark the urge to drink real beer more but it’s been great for me.

I don’t see a world where alcohol is restricted as much as public smoking but having alternatives is a big thing for me to feel less awkward in drinking social settings where i still feel like I’m participating in a healthy way for me.

Had a bad spout of insomnia mainly due to extremely high stress levels. I was sleeping 1-3 hours max every night for months. I somehow still got the minimum amount of work done but I was a zombie and have basically no recollection of what I did during that time. I ended up having sleep depravation psychosis essentially and when I would sleep and have any thought or dream, I thought it was absolutely real.

Strangest thing I did during that time was probably dropping my kids off at school and leaving them (this was during summer break). That was eye opening for me.

I’m thankfully in a much better place now. Still high stress job and a lot of anxiety that I carry with me home but I’m working on it!

Yes there needs to be more doggo content on here! I promise to post pics of my dog if someone creates it

Too bad it’s 9 times the size of the earth (I don’t know what it’s mass is) so likely not suitable for humans. Still finding life outside earth would be absolutely incredible, and I agree, the most historic discovery of humankind

Know if there is an iOS equivalent? Seems like a great thing to have but my search just pulled up paid or subscription based apps

Yeah they picked up the same reading on Venus which was later disproved. The headline is also somewhat misleading in that this planet is 9 times larger than earth (not sure what it’s mass is) so it wouldn’t accommodate humans but still it would be incredible to reconfirm results

Surprised there aren’t more sex related comments here. My wife and I would love to have a large playroom - say 800sqft - just as a playroom. We’d have sex swings, St. Andrews cross, benches, fuck couches, huge beds with posts for fun activities, sex machine, all the toys could be organized on nice glass shelving.

I’d also want a huge bathroom attached with a hot tub, open showers with benches and for cleanup after play.

Just everything for a night of fun debauchery with friends in the lifestyle

Seriously!! I listened to one podcast one time and now my whole front page on mobile AND CarPlay is all podcasts. The CarPlay is what I care about more because I’m fucking driving you can’t navigate to find new music. It’s mind blowing

There’s a book called “chasing failure” by Ryan Leek that covers this really well. When you reframe what failure and success look like to you it opens up a lot of opportunities you’d never know were there!

There is creepywikipedia on lemmy that sort of stray he’s that itch for me. Lots of serial killer posts and some others

You could try taking edibles with lower amounts of tch. Taking 1MG might take the edge off for your coping needs but shouldn’t be enough to give you high anxiety or psychotic thoughts.

As someone who drank like you for years, it slowly became a much larger problem in my life. Sober for a little over 2 years now and use THC regularly to help when needed.

Sounds like you’re happy where you are at now but if you do want to look into it, there are stopdrinking communities here and Reddit (more active there) to learn more.

Gotcha, yeah that makes sense. I have a google wifi mesh and I’m sure it has some features like that I can set up. Thanks!

How are you automating the wifi shutting of during specific hours? This is something I’d like to implement

Be careful with it. It’s a slippery slope and one I’m too familiar with. Switch to weed if you can. May not be as accessible as alcohol depending on where you live but it will distract you just as well as alcohol and is much safer long term for you than alcohol. No hangovers and for most it’s not habit forming. Wish I could go back in time and change the past decisions I’ve made.

Check out !stopdrinking@lemmy.world

Similar to r/stopdrinking community. There’s people there that can help

Right, when NFT’s we’re going crazy, the pictures and shit didn’t make sense to me at all but there’s a huge opportunity for digital ownership of physical materials like cars or houses. It would make private sales/transfers easy. All title information on the house would be recorded and attached in the blockchain so when you go to sell your home, you can prove there aren’t any liens against the home and once financing has been approved, transfer the ownership on the blockchain and done. That’s where I always saw the practical application going but now nobody will take NFT’s seriously until it’s named something else and rolled out with government approval and systems in place or nobody will feel safe transferring such a large investment digitally

Breath of the wild for me. The switch only counts up to 500 hrs and I know I’m probably double that. 100% the game on master mode with very very little help from guides. I just love that game man. TOTK is great too but my heart is still with BOTW

Nope that was the one thing I needed help with at the end and there was one ruins I hadn’t visited that contributes a little towards completion. Like I said though, over 1000 hours easily on the game.

How are you liking TOTK so far?

I’ve had the same thought. Can anyone make an instance and it’s automatically federated? It would make sense that to join the federation there would be an application process, gaining approval by receiving so many votes by already federated instances. But that doesn’t exist as far as I know and I’m sure would create a whole other set of issues and politics and skew the general idea here that this place is decentralized
