I’ll start. Apt next door is having a cockroach infected. 4 days ago, I was playing sims on my laptop, wearing my eyeglasses. Right lens got blurry, took off, huge cockroach was crawling across inside of lens. While I was wearing them. Freak out ensued.

I started using Spotube a few days ago and it seems interesting but I’m having a specific issue with it. I’m trying to listen to “Darkish” by A-One but despite the fact that there are multiple videos on YouTube, Spotube can’t find a source and if I try manually searching for a source, all of the videos, including...

Hello all - first and foremost thank you to anyone who is able to take time to respond. I’m looking for some guidance and trying to understand if tis is a common death in dogs or was there any way to potentially avoid it....

I’ve been doing secret Santa with my family the last few years, but the webapps we use are always so annoying to use. You get an email every time your giftee updates their list or answers a question, but you need to sign in to the ad-riddled platform to see what is going on. You can make a wishlist, but only through links to...

Of course without committing a crime before and without saying anything else.

I’m planning to go on a long trip around the country where speed limits are ridiculously low, even on highways, and that’s all the road police care about (even the slightest of speed-limit infringements) and was wondering if a radar/speeding-camera detector would be worth it....

This probably isn’t the best place for this but something I want to have been mentioned....

Hi. This question is for leftists mostly. If you watch a content creator that’s on the left, but they have a questionable guest on, do you continue to watch that creator or do you find a different creator to watch? I sometimes watch The Convo Couch and Danny Haiphong, but they’ve had very questionable guests on and I can’t...

This is going to be more of a life pro tip, but trying to reach the largest audience here....

You know the type. High security, weeks or months of stakeout, sniper three blocks away…...

I started getting the dreaded anti-adblock pop-ups on Youtube when they started ramping up their efforts a month or so back, and I initially went through the whole rigamarole: First it was just the pop-up, then it was the pop-up with the timer, then the 3-video countdown finally leading to the video player being disabled...

For example, if you insist on buying Advil instead of store brand ibuprofen. I mean, you’d be wasting your money in that example, but you do you

For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they’re much easier to grab.

How is you experience using them ? (I know BlueSky is invite only, but perhaps someone got lucky) I registered in Mastodon recently and i’m getting the same feeling(and problems) when started using lemmy.

Good friends of mine would like a reprieve so they can have their anniversary dinner. I’ve been a camp counsellor and was pretty good at it but those kids were all 6 years old, this one is 13 months old. Adorable kid but I figure maybe some folks here might have good ideas/thoughts/suggestions/crass jokes?

I want to hear from the people with pets like centipedes, prarie dogs, alligators, scorpions, vultures, octupus… What is taking care of your pet like?

I’ve often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

I’m trying to improve my breakfest generally, and I heard that these are some of the best of what’s already popular to eat for health. How should these be ate, together or separate?

Hi, I got a used laptop from an family member. It did have this this annoying sticker on it (see picture). Apparently for years already....

This isn’t about grieving, just assuming the complete absence of your family and all the inheritance....
