Zansacu , to youshouldknow in YSK Defibrillators doesn't restart a stopped heart
@Zansacu@lemmy.world avatar

One thing to add, that haven’t been thought to me in the CPR course.

It’s fucking exhausting and you will get tired very soon. The training dummy doesn’t require nowhere near as much force as a real person. To give you an example, it’s quite common to crack or break a rib of the CPR recipient even if CPR is done right. That’s how much force you have to use. Without the required force, your pushes won’t reach the heart.

Make sure there is someone else who knows how to do CPR or at least is looking how you’re doing it and can repeat that or follow your commands once you switch.

I’ve only had to give someone CPR once and I haven’t been as tired in my whole life. No way the “I’ve been giving him CPR for 30 minutes…” You see on a TV screen is real. I felt like I’ll need CPR myself after 3 minutes.

SweetSitty , to youshouldknow in YSK: The term "Genuine Leather", it is not to reassure you that their product is made of leather, rather its the name of the lowest grade of leather a company can use.

You should also know that technically only the piece marked as genuine leather needs to actually be genuine leather. If you buy something made with multiple pieces, the rest could be made from any material so long as that one piece is genuine.

RedClouds ,

“Made with natural and artificial flavors”… So just… made with artificial flavors then…

CountZero ,

You know what’s cool about “natural flavors”? They just have to be found in nature to call them that. They can be synthesized in a lab and still be a “natural flavor.”

P.S. don’t fall for the naturalistic fallacy. This comment is about tricky vocabulary used by the food industry. Whether or not a chemical is found in nature has nothing to do with whether it is good or bad for you. Arsenic is natural.

ShadyGrove ,

Yup! “All Natural” is just a marketing term, there’s no regulations behind it. USDA Organic is a real thing though, farms need to be organic for 7 years to be labeled that, if I recall correctly at least

Wear, not so much. Mostly to sit on!

zephyr , to youshouldknow in YSK - X percent of Y is equal to Y percent of X. So, if you want to find out what 7% of 50 is, you could instead find out what 50% of 7 is, which is 3.5. This means that 7% of 50 is also equal to 3.5.

Percentage is just a fancy form of decimal point. I just multiply them together then move decimal digit to the left twice.

@Otome-chan@kbin.social avatar

damn all these good tips for doing quick percentage math @.@

stallmer ,

This is true for quite a few other things as well. For instance, “hertz” really just means “per second”. However, it’s easier to write/type “Hz” instead of “s^-1”.

SturgiesYrFase , to asklemmy in What podcasts do you recommend?
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Behind the Bastards, a deep dive into the various shit people of history. Episode one is Saddam Hussein: Erotic Novelist.

There’s nearly 700 episodes, and I’ve yet to run tio a dud. Loads of great guests. My only gripe is that it’s a touch Amerocentric, but other than that I’d recommend it to basically anyone. Not kid friendly, in case that wasn’t obvious.

@nicktron@kbin.social avatar

I think it’s only fair to add that this podcast has a very left leaning bias. I’m not saying that that is bad, just being objective.

Here’s another alternative, I save the article into Pocket and that usually works.

Or Wallabag, an open source alternative for those hearing about Pocket for the first time.

sombrero , to gaming in PC Games to play in local co-op?

I was a bit confused when you said local co-op. It implies 2 computers on the same local network(connected to the same router, no internet connection required). I think the term you’re looking for is split screen gaming.

When I looked at pictures of Spelunky games like Clonk and Liero popped into mind, I think there are options for split screen multiplayer in those games, they’re old school PvP games.

My friends call that LAN play or LAN co-op. To me, local co-op has always been a more general phrase, covering all of the above.

sphere_au , to technology in Lemmy needs two things to be successful

I think these are “nice to have” features rather than absolutely essential, but:

For 1. I could deal with just being able to download my list of subscriptions and upload it to another server. That’s the only bit that’s really slow to copy over by hand.

For 2. I think the main thing that really would benefit is the ability to search all active communities on all servers. The way it is now is alright if there are only half a dozen really active instances whose communities I might be interested in, but it doesn’t scale if there are hundreds of servers to check out. Probably the more important of the two IMHO in the long run.

Being able to download your own data would be a start

Kerfuffle , to youshouldknow in YSK: Installing a bidet attachment to your toilet is super easy and probably cleaner than using toilet paper.
@Kerfuffle@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

40$ attachment and no more swamp ass. Say goodbye to foul balls. And no more tainted taint.

kakes ,

Honestly, I thought I was pretty clean before getting a bidet, but since getting one I can never go back without feeling gross. It’s weird what we can get used to, when that’s just how you’ve done things your whole life.

I’ll never understand how people live without a bidet.

Anonymous0573 ,

I like to use toilet paper to get the bulk of it, then use wet wipes after.

cocolopez ,
@cocolopez@lemmy.world avatar

How dare you! Jajajaja. I guess everyone can do it as pleased

Anonymous0573 ,

Lol at least I made progress. I was taught to just use toilet paper when I was a kid. Now if I have to do that, I feel so dirty

cocolopez ,
@cocolopez@lemmy.world avatar

I feel quite the opposite. Hear me, if you stick your finger in penut butter and just clean it with paper, you can still taste it if you suck it. But of you wash it with water your truly clean. But didn’t want to sound like I was criticizing. Cheers

PopYaCork , to selfhosted in What are your offsite backup solutions

I won’t go into my solution here, but the only tip I’ll give you is don’t use cloud based storage. Restoring is slow if we’re talking terrabytes, it’s expensive compared to buying a disk and your data is never truly safe.

Buy another drive, backup to it and have it on a rotation schedule. I keep my “offsite” backup in the boot of my car. If I’m not at home I’m usually away with my car.

Pivot_Wizard ,

Storing a hard disk in a car or any other moving vehicle is highly not recommended. The vibration will kill your drive. There are stories of companies moving drives on trolleys across their carpark to find the data has been lost.

betterdeadthanreddit , to android in any way to make Snapchat think it has camera permission?

Convert your friends over to Signal. Let Snapchat harvest somebody else’s personal data.

Signal also did something that angered its userbase by removing SMS support, so now it’s harder than ever to try to convert people to Signal.

Can't you just use your normal SMS app?

Do you understand the reasoning for the removal?
