What is something that you experienced that changed the way you viewed the world?
  • I am an atheist myself but sometimes I comfort myself thatbthere may be someone who enables a afterlife for the sake of the dead. Also - a priest doesn't talk to god in the catholic church; Only prophets do.

    Just want to suggest: The entire mass got there with jackets, etc. He could indeed have postponed going outside in order for the staff to put jackets on.

    But he did teach a boy a lesson: Think for yourself and think ahead. Among the dead are people who may have suffered tremendously. In order to respect them you had to be brave and strong.

    Your story doesn't contain lost fingers due to frost bite. And it cuts short of the things afterwards: He may have invited his staff for hot chocolate afterwards.

    It formed you in some way and you could cherish that. And respect for the priest that he stood his ground regardless of his wrong doing: He tried to convey his point - Though I agree that it was shit-tey.

  • Do y'all actually read articles or just the headline?
  • Same here but with some tuning:

    I read comments very carefully. If there isn't a summary bot I don't trust comments as true anymore. If the publisher prevents reader mode (firefox) or requires either a subscription or non-essential cookies: Keep your secrets.

    Also, if the headline is too hard a clickbait, I skip it as well.

  • (UK-)English (and its dialects? Accents?)
  • I tried to me more precise with my elaboration - in accordance to my abilities.

    Your reply matches exactly the attitude Inam receiving in conversations. And the upvotes prove it. So i keep a more percise wording in my mind; Plus try to extend my vocabulary!

  • (UK-)English (and its dialects? Accents?)
  • Thank you for your time taking a glance. Tend to correct every written sentence multiple times. I am struggling to participate in conversations; But the top reply shows that my expression skills are underwhelming.

  • (UK-)English (and its dialects? Accents?)
  • So I have to revisit books about the English grammar, I suppose.

    I am mostly consuming media written or spoken in English. But participating in conversations shows very promptly my inabilities. So thank you for you time and hint!

  • (UK-)English (and its dialects? Accents?)
  • I am inviting you to raise questions as well or place your opinion on my issue. Would have just expected a (KW) if this is a thing :).

    I expected multiple different accents here. E.g. some African input.

  • What side hustles have you personally seen work pretty well?
  • European here without education for a plumber, just barely scratched the profession for a few years.

    Low water pressure occurs in bigger complexes with a pipe to small for the consumers. The water pressure in suburbans and cities comes directly from the local water station.

    If you have issues with this, there are special armatures for low water pressure.

    The cheapest improvement is replacing the water disperser with a current one.

    Other then that, one could install a pump to improve the water pressure, but these things are expensive and have high maintainability costs due to pumping drinking water, not water in a heater pipe.

  • (UK-)English (and its dialects? Accents?)

    ~~So what's where correct? And what else to consider at your (English speaking) place?

    Consider:

    • I want that.
    • I want this, too.
    • I want the same.

    I'm asking this (and that) since I participated a discussion with only native speakers and it crushed me. Apparently I am the worst English speaker anywhere.

    Teach me things, Lemmy. Pleeaase!

    Post scriptum: You may prepend your comment with a common, international country code to don't fuck with me too hard.~~

    I am struggling to participate in conversations held in English. Simple choices of words like such named are making me insecure. Which may contribute to the issue that other people have trouble understanding me. I am already trying to keep my sentences short and consume media mainly in English.

    Additionally I hoped that countries with English as a second language could provide me with hints to simplify my spoken English.

    I learned UK - English back in school; But this has nothing to do with real Englishmen speaking.

    Current comments prompt me to revisit the basics of the language. Another task hard to put into daily life.

    What is the first graphics card you got?
  • I attempted to upgrade such a card and were suggested the Geforce FX 5200.

    I was so hyped. After finally installing the games I always wanted to play I ad to realize: This passive cooled card supported DX9 on paper but its performance was worse.

    It crushed me back then and since then I have never bought a desktop PC part ever again.

    But then recently I was gifted an old rig from a friend. Put a Readon RX 6700 (or so) in it. So my first actual graphics card is this radeon!! :)

    Buddy, if you read this: Thank you again, much love. You are an awesome beeing.

  • Russian court fines Google $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
  • They stopped any business in Russia in 2022 acvording to the article.

    Guessing consumer products are still working though. Would like to know as well!

    And was there somebody representing Google in the court? I doubt it.

  • Men: I requested underwear recommendations and it was wholesome. Here is my limited feedback:
  • Some guy gave me recommendations in this post: https://suppo.fi/comment/6839286

    It bundles Undie-cuts which may comfort, appreciate or stealth your trunk. But it is unspecific in terms of measure- or requirements.

    I wasn't able to wear those within a shop and I didn't receive any suggestions to my - initial - said problems.

    The websites didn't clarify any measurements so I neglected those. I do not want to require useless shipments.

  • Men: I requested underwear recommendations and it was wholesome. Here is my limited feedback:

    Almost all recommendations are unavailable in Europe.

    I took my measurements and instead of dividing my metric size by 2.54 I applied 2.38. Due to avoidance of using my credit card for purchases in America I used Amazon to grab the Undies.

    No refunds, but I could order through Amazon SAXX and BN3TH.

    The former is huge. I have to pass them on. Still - the park for my things is of less space then BN3TH. I ordered XXL. The latter is already awesome.

    BN3TH is more elastic then SAXX enabling to reduce size if necessay (in terms of leg-radius). Also, the Pouch got two layers which is more safe for circumcised dudes like me. But alignment is more difficult at first since grabbing has to be done more consciously.

    SAXX has a - almost see-through - textile when stretched. But you can't; So SAXX appears to be way better for hot conditions or cooling requirements.

    I didn't had the opportunity to review lululemons yet since I wasn't taken seriously and had to wait for the ordered pairs first.

    Mostlikely I will order a 5-pack of L-sized SAXX after trying on lululemons, since BN3TH are made - to me - for the default-more packed guy. I require some drive to fill them out.

    Anyhow, if you need more information - This is an anonymous platform.

    Cheers and THANKS. Pouches have definetly aided my issues.

    Post Scriptum:

    Regarding the recommendations of underwear for gay people: The websites are way too unspecific. I asked in two adult warehouses for such but there was no experience with any of them. So I neglected those.

    // Edit:

    I am 192 cm and the largest part around my waist is 104 cm which I took for my measurement from.

    Men's Underwear: Recommendation?

    Hello Internet,

    I have trouble with any underwear I ever owned. I am wearing XXL or size 8 underwear but they tend to make me uncomfortable in different matters.

    Waering loose Boxershorts is okay to my wiener but my balls are to free. Also they tend to crawl upwards during the day.

    Tighter Shorts have a good appearance and are my main underwear. But I struggle with them as well: My thing turtles uncomfortably making me insane so I can pull it into position. Also, they tend to screw at the bottom after half an year.

    Asking this within my circles only earns sarcastic comments or the experience isn't shared. So I ask you: How do I determine the correct underwear for me and am I missing something? If you relate and have solved this issue, please recommend me some underwear.

    // Edit:

    Thank you for all the recommendations and input. I wasn't aware of the pouch feature. Researched all suggested brands and:

    Ordered from overseas:

    • SAXX
    • BN3TH

    Currently not deliverable:

    • Step One

    Lululemon does have a store in the city, so I will go there next week to try those on.

    WTF Poland: You Still Struggling

    Today I got gifted four cans of Tyskie directly chilled from Poland. Its one of my Favuorites - but you still don't have Pfand.

    You guys should step up and demand it immediately. Ecologically we admire + require you but still you don't require returing back aluminium cans. Nor plastic/etc. bottles. And I am assuming neither at glass bottles.

    You guys should go onto the streets for 100% compatibility with your silenced Neighbours. Lets strenghten our civilian bonds <3.

    Its like the requirement of catalyst after 1999. The snow at last was white(ish) again.
