  • I go there still when I want product recommendations that aren’t full of marketing/ads. If I use a search engine to search for example, “dashcam recommendations,” I get a million results that are sponsored, SEO-optimized, or otherwise garbage. If I go on Reddit, I’ll find an entire community devoted to the topic with seemingly real people discussing the pros/cons of all different models.

    I’ve tried searching with Lemmy but most of the time I can’t find the answers I’m looking for so end up crawling back to Reddit.

    I absolutely don’t go there to doomscroll like I used to, I’ve thankfully moved on from that life.


  • My legs generally don’t get cold. Even in that -20 C weather my legs just don’t seem to be bothered. I have no idea why, other than I’m acclimatized to cold weather or something, though it’s possible there’s some nerve issue in my legs that makes me not feel the cold - again, no idea.

    Other parts of my body get cold, like you won’t catch my shirtless or shoeless in that weather.

    On the other hand, if I wear pants, my legs will sweat profusely and get itchy, which is way more uncomfortable to me. I’m also generally a very warm person, and usually sleep at night without a blanket covering me (otherwise I’ll sweat all night and be uncomfortable). If I turn the thermostat down then blankets become tolerable, but then everyone else in my house will complain it’s too cold.

    I’m also aware of the dangers of frostbite, so if I expect to be in -20 C weather for extended periods of time (like an hour or two) then I’ll put on pants. If it drops to -30 C then I always put on pants no matter how long I plan to be outside.

    Hopefully this clears up some of the confusion, though I expect it also raises new ones.

    I got ChatGPT to write me a silly dialogue ending in this line:

    Samantha: “Arthur, how could you?”

    Arthur: “What? What did I do this time, Samantha?”

    Samantha: “You’ve put mayonnaise on the roast chicken again! You know I can’t stand the stuff!”

    Arthur: “But, Samantha, it adds so much flavor!”

    Samantha: “Arthur, it doesn’t. It just makes everything taste like… mayonnaise!”

    Arthur: “That’s the point! You know I’ve always loved it.”

    Samantha: “I thought you loved me.”

    Arthur: “Well, of course, I do.”

    Samantha: “Well, you can’t have both of us.”

    Arthur: “What, you want me to choose between you and mayonnaise?”

    Samantha: “Yes, exactly. Do you love mayonnaise or do you love me?”
