No - it’s definitely Christmas in summer in Australia. But somehow my dear old Gran never got the memo, and insisted on making us sit down and sweat through a full roast Christmas lunch each year, sometimes in 40°C+ heat.

dharmacurious ,

An Aussie friend from a forum I was on ages ago posted a video of his family’s Christmas tree, and it blew my mind that they decorated it with snowmen and snowflakes and shit. They had a fire going, a big ass turkey or some such (baby emu?) on the table. Whole freaking classic Christmas affair.

Why? Why do you do this? If it flipped somehow, and Christmas now came during summer here in the US, I’d be decorating the tree with flip flops (thongs?) and sunglasses, and having mojitos with a light salad for dinner lol

cpw , to nostupidquestions in What is the secret to making LED light bulbs last as long as the package says?

Check your power. I’ve had about 50 led bulbs for about 7 or more years. Only the ones in the bathroom failed because they were cheap and not rated for use in a wet and humid environment. Their replacements are coming up on 4 years old now and no signs of trouble. None of the bulbs were particularly expensive when I bought them.

Catoblepas , to mildlyinfuriating in Meadow Pollack deserved it

What are you expecting from other people when you post that a teenager deserved to be murdered? Are you trying to get people to yell at you and call you an incel for some reason? After that, then what? It’s not going to change whatever is making you feel like thinking and saying this kind of thing is a good idea.

Talk to a therapist, you are trapping yourself in a cycle of fear and hate.

Rage baiting, and not the light-hearted harmless kind. Best just report, block, and move on.

Yeah the account posts shit like this. Had more but a few were removed. Just block them after a report, hope the admins remove their account entirely.

Boozilla , to nostupidquestions in What is the secret to making LED light bulbs last as long as the package says?
@Boozilla@lemmy.world avatar

Might be worth looking into phosphor-converted LEDs. A little slower to light up, but supposedly last longer and are more heat-tolerant.

goferking0 , to world in Media Bias Fact Check - Automation

Why does the bot spend so much space asking for donations to mediabiasfactcheck.com and thanking them for an api? Especially when it’s one of the few areas not in a spoiler block so it’s always shown?

Bluetreefrog , to world in Media Bias Fact Check - Automation

I actually like it. Thanks.

intensely_human , to explainlikeimfive in ELI5: If you're a Christian, why do you have to be good if Jesus will forgive you no matter what?

You have to be sorry to be forgiven. If you weren’t trying in the first place, it’s hard to be sorry.

But also, the thing isn’t designed to be balanced or suitable.

Jesus will forgive you because that’s how it works. The system wasn’t designed by humans.

intensely_human , to explainlikeimfive in ELI5: In computer networking, what is a port?

A port is like an apartment number. Except instead of apartments, it’s just mailboxes. Bob’s mailbox is number 25. If you want to get a message to Bob, uou write “box 25” on the address.

A port number is just an additional piece of info that the operating system associates with a particular program. If something comes in on port 22, the sshd is going to handle it because it’s “listening on port 22”, meaning that it has registered itself with the OS as the recipient of anything that comes in marked “port 22”.

intensely_human , to explainlikeimfive in Why won't fediverse instances bloat and pop?

Yeah that’s a problem with web apps in general: their databases just grow and grow.
