Somebody explain please. I for one never had that stuff growing up. Strogan f**ck off

I’m bored and my thoughts went...

I don’t want to offend anyone by the term “generic”, but by that term I mean the typical Youtubers who generate the same repetitive content over and over and over and over and over again and it’s usually content that is made with little effort and often with filler, such as unnecessary jokes.

I’m considering a graduate degree in engineering but I’m not sure what to expect out of grad school compared to undergrad studies. Share whatever you’d like about your degree, experience earning it, if you’d do it over again, and how it’s affected your life.

How does Lemmy decide where to automatically cross-post something?

Sorry not sure where to ask. I saw a comic about dark mode a few days ago on Lemmy. I thought I would share with my friend, but can’t find it. The comic starts with a girl coming back to a guys home after the date. Guy has a boner, they are getting ready for some sex but the girl notices that the guys vscode is in light theme...

Living in cruddy apt. Anger management neighbor slamming doors constantly. Bed shakes, waking me up....

So I need some realtalk by Lemmie’s resident stoners and possibly medical professionals on the benefits and risks/harms of vaping cannabis refill things on the respiratory system (using a rechargeable vape pen/battery thingy at the lowest heat setting)....

I couldn’t learn this in teenagehood nor early adolescence so I have to learn it now. I don’t want to go into details of my upbringing, but think about a kid living on the streets, growing up only knowing war and survival
