New Guidelines Call on Doctors to Take IUD Insertion Pain Seriously in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world
[–] w3dd1e@lemm.ee 23 points 2 months ago (5 children)

My doctor told me to take a couple ibuprofens before. Did the thing. Made me lie there for a few minutes then set me loose.

I vomited in the parking lot afterwards.

A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them in c/technology@lemmy.world

How many people start companies, rack up a bunch of debt, then create another company that buys everything except the debt?

It’s BS they didn’t know about it. They got the financials before the deal. Even if it wasn’t directly listed as a line item it would have been a part of the expenses.

They still thought the deal was worth doing as it was based on incoming revenue and outgoing expenses.

Trakt to increase prices to $60 for all users, including those on legacy, promotional, and grandfathered pricing in c/technology@lemmy.world

I didn’t even get an email about this. I would have been angry when my subscription auto renewed. I love Trakt but this is too much. I’ll be cancelling too

EDIT: I cancelled. Bummer. I’ve been a user for 12 years. I track things religiously and I tried to contribute to their site by creating public lists that have actual value.

It’s too short a notice, a flimsy justification, and a poor execution. The auto tracking features they added recently really messed up my watch history so now is as good of time as any to quit.

Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants in c/technology@lemmy.world

It’s funny. They target people who burned the trucks, but insurance claims are probably their best chance to get paid for the trucks.

Conservative Radio Host Brutally Roasts Trump Accepting Plane From Qatar: It’s From the ‘Same Money Used to Kill Americans’ in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] w3dd1e@lemm.ee 22 points 2 months ago

I checked out r/conservative to see if this would finally get through to them but they all think it’s fantastic. They don’t believe it’s going to be for personal use. They think it’s not actually worth half a billion because it’s used and 13 years old. They think it’s awesome that he “saved” tax payers money on a new plane.

We are so fucked.

Thanks for posting. I was literally l looking for updates on this recently and couldn’t find anything. I was worried that it might have been forgotten about

Do they know it’s my thought or do they think it’s their own?

Where to learn about engines? (lemm.ee)
 

Hello! Don’t know if this is the right community to post this question, but maybe you can help.

I want to learn about cars and engines. I’m a pretty mechanical person and I like to tinker. I can do basics, like changing my own oil etc.

I want to do some hands on learning, but I don’t have a ton of money to spend or space to work in. I was wondering if you had suggestions on something small and affordable I can get to learn about engines. I was thinking a lawn mower or a scooter but I don’t know how similar those would be to a car.

Do you have any advice?

Staying Focused While Waiting (lemm.ee)
 

How do you stayed focused on a task when the task involves some type of waiting?

For example, I have a really hard time staying focused at work. The problem for me is, our software can be really really really slow. While I’m waiting for Outlook to load an email, or our internal tooling to populate data, I find my mind is wandering. Often, I’ll start on another task or pick up my phone and just completely forget about the first thing I started.

At the end of the day, I have to figure out why I have 8 half written emails open in the background of my PC.

How do you stay on track when your tasks require patience?

I just noticed the Australian man from Spa 5 is also on Osiris 4 in a later episode (lemm.ee)
 

I’ve seen this show thousands of times. I have most of it memorized to the point where I can recite it from memory, but I still catch new things all the time. That’s one of my favorite things about this show.

What’s something you realized after rewatching the show several times?

Behavior - Getting a second dog (lemm.ee)
 

About a year ago, I adopted a 2nd dog. For the most part they get along pretty well. They like to play together and for the most part they play well together.

After a few months, they would cuddle up together, but I noticed my first dog started sleeping in a really tight ball. To the point his head is almost facing behind him.

I googled it. It seems that position is defensive. He never slept like that before. I can tell he does it now when he is upset about something.

He doesn’t seem to like to sleep near the 2nd dog. He will go into a room and sleep alone. Of course, the 2nd dog wants to sleep with him so he follows and and curls up next to him. He doesn’t get mad when this happens but I can tell he doesn’t like it.

They still play together pretty well. He even initiates play time with the 2nd dog. He does those big goofy hops when he is trying to get 2nd dog to play with him. It’s cute.

TLDR: how can I help my 1st dog feel more comfortable around my 2nd dog outside of play time?

Starfield Item Value Spreadsheet (docs.google.com)
 

I'm a Bethesda hoarder and a crazy person, so I made a spreadsheet. I know there's a mod if you're on PC, but I'm on Xbox so I needed some help. Thought you might be interested. I got the data from Starfield Wiki and just added simple functions for the ratios.
