  • Thanks for the suggestion, I do find this to be annoying in other communities, but as you said it doesn't seem to be a big issue here at present.

    I intend to leave this post pinned for quite a while so that I can try to get a good idea of the general consensus of the community on the suggestions, so if it looks like most feel this is needed as time goes on then I would be glad to implement it.

  • I certainly agree and thank you, no worries.

  • Sounds good to me and by the looks of things I believe you are right.

  • Thanks!

  • Your account says you joined 2 months ago so unless it's an alt account, you haven't really been here a very long time which probably plays into it. Furthermore are you actually looking for anything creative or unique? It looks like you have primarily just hopped around on technology communities. I would recommend browsing for communities that have more creativity and subjectivity to offer.

  • Depends on the bear. Black bears this can work, but if they attack you anyway you have to fight for your life or you are dead since they will keep attacking their prey until they are certain its dead.

    Grizzlies... Be quiet and calm and talk in a low voice, also do not run if possible, if you run they will think you are prey. If they attack you, ball up, protect your neck and head, fight as well if you really have no other option. Making yourself seem big and scary isn't very effective with them.

    Polar bear, you're just fucking dead.

    For all of them, carry bear bangers and or bear spray.

  • Furthermore, I thought that they were supposed to be a temporary instance for the reddit influx as well.

  • Here in Canada we have had tariffs on other countries dairy products since the 70's in order to protect the Canadian dairy industry and set specific standards for the products of it. There is a cap for importers where if they only bring in small amounts of dairy, the tariff is about 7.5%, but if it exceeds a certain amount, the tariffs do skyrocket to between 241% and 300%.

  • Economy doesn't benefit you presently unfortunately.

    Somehow before shit really hit the fan I was able to land a non developer role at a software company which only asks you to come in twice a week. Looking to move into development at the company, but from the outside software Dev roles are super flooded with applicants right now.

    Whatever you do, your chances for remote work are better if you get in with a small company of 10 to 20 people.

  • Yea, the drying out of the skin with the alcohol reduces the amount of blood, but there is always going to be some. Cutting straight across is a very good way to avoid future issues as well.

  • Yep, pretty sure you are right.

  • Execute the previous command as root

    Fun fact if you are using bash, !! will evaluate to the previous command, so if you miss sudo on some long command, you can also just do sudo !!.

  • alias clip='xclip -selection clipboard'

    When you pipe to this, for example ls | clip, it will stick the output of the command ran into the clipboard without needing to manually copy the output.

  • Yea, .ml had defederated with it, but any instance can if they want.

  • Go to a doctor.

    I am not a doctor. You should not do anything I describe herein and should consult a medical professional.

    I fixed them myself a few times on each foot, trialing and erroring until I found a solution that since using it, has worked well for me in every case.

    Note in less extreme cases, you can try to cut a little V in the middle-end of the nail. In my cases, it was much too bad for this to work.

    I sanitize the toe and an x-acto knife with a new blade (pointed tip, triangular in shape) that has been cleaned of any foreign substances (such as the oil they sometimes come covered in) with 99% isopropyl and begin cutting a straight, vertical line on the side of the nail that has the issue, as close to the edge as I find reasonable. I go very slow and as light as I can, tracing that line over and over, as I don't want an x-acto knife plunging into my toe itself. Eventually I make my way through the nail, but the nail is still connected under the cuticle. From this point onward, every day, I unravel cotton balls into strips and wet them thoroughly with alcohol, and then secure a strip or thick, folded pad to my toe with medical tape. The cotton should be very wet, but not dripping wet.

    I found that regular bandaids were not effective due to adhesion issues and because they lack the ability to hold enough alcohol in their padding. Each day the skin around the nail will begin to die a little bit and dry out. I use sanitized forceps and the sanitized x-acto to cut a bit more and to pull on the edge of the nail each day (in an up and out fashion and occasionally away from the toe), but try not to force it too much. Eventually the nail breaks and comes off. Where it was dug into the flesh of the toe, there will be a small hole. At this time I sanitize the entire toe and the wound with alcohol. Finally, and the most important part of this process - I do the same process as previously described with the cotton, alcohol, and tape to bandage the toe every day, or twice per day as needed until the nail grows back in correctly. If this is not done, it is likely it will grow back ingrown and you will be at step 1 again.

    In my experience, I had to keep it santized with alcohol and very dry. I found that taping it up wet with products such as polysporin prevented healing and would result in the nail becoming ingrown when it grew back in, as well as causing pain and increased inflamation. Using alcohol, day to day the pain lessened and it was able to grow back in normally each time. Needless to say as well, but you want to stay off of that foot as much as possible as walking on it during this process can lead to inflammation.

    This process has taken me anywhere between 3 days to 2 weeks depending on how badly ingrown it was.

    When it gets fixed it is great, there is almost instant relief from the pain.

  • Not always true, instances can defederate lemvotes so that it doesn't function I believe.
