im glad england lost that match because it means one less night of screaming football fans in my neighborhood

i feel like this could be a lot of headlines

it-it’s happening- SOMEONE HELP M-i use arch btw :3

only song of his im familiar with is Run It, because of course it’s the credits song to my favourite movie, and i think it’s alright, not particularly to my taste or anything, but i definitely thought the first Sonic movie’s credits song was worse

PoS really does have a double meaning

i know right 😭 definitely an otter in spirit, rather than in practice

i know it makes me sound stupid but i was just very young the first time lol, barely remember it

the first time i was VERY young to be fair, only one was relatively recent

I can confirm this - I have nearly drowned a few times, and it felt like I couldn’t move. The natural reactions just took over me, and to be honest felt quite counterproductive. Until I was helped, I felt completely frozen, only moved by the water, until someone helped me, it was terrifying.

One of the worst parts was because I had got water in my lungs, even as I was helped above the water, I tried to breathe, but I simply couldnt. I thought I was going to die and I couldnt communicate it because, like the article says, breathing first, speaking second. It took what felt like multiple minutes but was probably like 10-20 seconds before I could actually breathe.

I’m very grateful for those who have saved me, and I clearly haven’t learned my lesson because I still love being in water :P

all good :P

According to the Wikipedia article,, for those wondering what its historical significance is, this is where anesthetic was first successfully used in a surgical operation.

It served as the hospital’s operating room from its opening in 1821 until 1867. It was the site of the first public demonstration of the use of inhaled ether as a surgical anesthetic on October 16, 1846, otherwise known as Ether Day. The Ether Dome event occurred when William Thomas Green Morton, a local dentist, used ether to anesthetize Edward Gilbert Abbott. John Collins Warren, the first dean of Harvard Medical School, then painlessly removed part of a tumor from Abbott’s neck. After Warren had finished, and Abbott regained consciousness, Warren asked the patient how he felt. Reportedly, Abbott said, “Feels as if my neck’s been scratched”. Warren then turned to his medical audience and uttered “Gentlemen, this is no Humbug”. This was presumably a reference to the unsuccessful demonstration of nitrous oxide anesthesia by Horace Wells in the same theater the previous year, which was ended by cries of “Humbug!” after the patient groaned with pain.

Very fascinating!

not something you wanna be mistaken for these days

i think this guy must like star wars /j

i wonder if this guy likes Lord of the Rings…

Not perfect, but its okay and I’m feeling pretty good about myself currently. Theres just a few personal things I want, and to be able to sustain myself in the future and be able to get a place.

ah yes, we all have the all consuming spaghetti wires above our monitors. cant have a computer without it

that’s not how it goes

didn’t make sense not to live for fun

Just in case there is someone on this site who isn’t a Trekkie somehow

Thank you for the explaination, I am the one and only Lemmy user who hasn’t seen Star Trek :P

I was, unfortunately, someone who used to use LLMs quite extensively. I kinda just liked using it for fun and thought it was kinda convenient.

It took me‎ longer than I’d like to admit to stop using it. I knew why it was bad but it just felt like I couldn’t stop. It really becomes an addiction, it’s terrible.

When I first stopped using them, I did feel that brainrot. I was unable to really do anything creative for a little bit, but it eventually wore off after a few weeks and I was able to start drawing, writing, whatever creative things I wanted to do.

It just takes a little time,‎ try not to slip back into using AI, you got this :)
