No Fap (Masturbation abstinence) is popular online. Doctors and therapists are worried - NPR (www.npr.org)

This is an article about the online communities of people who abstain from masturbation. It discusses the reasons people join these communities and the potential harms and benefits. Some people find these communities helpful in overcoming pornography addiction. However, there is concern that these communities spread inaccurate...

I think I’ve read that’s only a very temporary decrease immediately after ejaculation, it’s a tough thing to measure over time since you have to draw blood each time. Sports are full of psuedo science and myths.

astral_avocado ,

I got the joke

astral_avocado ,

You’re the first person I’ve seen to describe my experience too, I feel like I’m the sole crazy person who wouldn’t mind more in office time. But I’m also lucky in that my office is a 15 minute bike ride away, I’d drive off a bridge if I had to commute an hour by car every day

Gen Z boys and men more likely than baby boomers to believe feminism harmful, says poll (www.theguardian.com)

Boys and men from generation Z are more likely than older baby boomers to believe that feminism has done more harm than good, according to research that shows a “real risk of fractious division among this coming generation”....

Good polling can be formated in a way to weed out people giving nonsense answers, it’s like the first thing you learn about polling in sociology or psychology, how to extract quality data.

astral_avocado ,

You sound like a rightwinger talking about leftists

astral_avocado ,

And they continue to let themselves get trolled lol

astral_avocado ,

Find me a gun manufacturer that isn’t?

astral_avocado ,

Likely not scalable on an industrial level, as always.

astral_avocado ,

Oh no, please no. They were supposed to be the best of us.

astral_avocado ,

tankie army has been activated

astral_avocado ,

are they all wrong?

I’ve always heard so many people talk about how epic their sleep and dreams are after quitting alcohol OR weed, people who never quit or take a break would just never know.

astral_avocado ,

Give it a try man

astral_avocado ,

Let them out in a designated area next to the plane, I’ve been deboarded outside the terminal before, just walked down steps right onto the tarmac.

astral_avocado ,

There was no way to perform the execution correctly.

Sure there is, fill an airtight prison cell with nitrogen on a random day while he’s asleep. People go out soundlessly to CO poisoning all the time like this.

astral_avocado ,

Probably as a last fuck you to Alabama and create controversy for them

astral_avocado ,
  1. A human can only make themselves stay awake for so long, maybe extend the range toa month.
  2. Tough luck, the bastard is gonna die anyway? I doubt most people who want vengeance are as bad as the death row inmates who have murdered people with their own hands, most normal people can’t handle seeing death right in front of them. I don’t see this as an actual hurdle to getting it done.
astral_avocado ,

I think you’re confusing the victims of the inmate for the actual inmate.

astral_avocado ,

If it were to become damaged, it can be recycled into a new state sanctioned penal murder cube.

Lmao

astral_avocado ,

So their problem was they didn’t vent his exhalation? And only let him breath in pure nitrogen?

astral_avocado ,

Nitrogen is cheap, I doubt it was that much harder to acquire that and a breathing mask to do this.

astral_avocado ,

Dude’s just straight up wrong, if you could upgrade flares it’d defeat the purpose of gameplay and atmosphere for one

Asbestos in drinking water: What does it mean for human health? (www.bbc.com)

Hundreds of thousands of miles of pipes made from asbestos cement deliver drinking water to people around the world, but are reaching the end of their lifespan and starting to degrade. Scientists are now debating whether this could pose a risk to human health....

Why wouldn’t we also assume the fibers would get stuck somewhere in the digestive tract?

astral_avocado ,

Lol that fucking name is straight out of 1850

Alabama calls nitrogen execution method 'painless' and 'humane,' but critics raise doubts (apnews.com)

Alabama, unless stopped by the courts, intends to strap Kenneth Eugene Smith to a gurney Thursday and use a gas mask to replace breathable air with nitrogen, depriving him of oxygen, in the nation’s first execution attempt with the method....

astral_avocado , (edited )

Thank you, I’ve been wondering why we’re suddenly seeing all this hub bub around nitrogen execution when it’s 100% obviously a better method than the barbaric injected cocktail that regularly fails. Thought I was taking crazy pills.

astral_avocado ,

Some people are just beyond saving man

astral_avocado ,

I don’t want absolute human garbage to be given food and accomodations paid by taxes for the rest of their lives.

astral_avocado ,

I’d rather pay a professional sociopath a fraction of the cost it would take to jail the inmate for life, to push that button.

astral_avocado ,

No I do have that concern too.

I simultaneously also think reprehensible criminals that have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt should still be executed.

astral_avocado ,

Based on this thread, it sounds like the new method should be getting the death row inmate crazy high on something, AND THEN you give them the nitrogen mask.

astral_avocado ,

I doubt the courts actually did that in the majority of those cases. There could be something said about the criteria used for who’s eligible for execution.

For example some good candidates would be any number of mass shooters still alive in max security prison. These people have dozens of witnesses and security cam footage, and are beyond a reasonable doubt guilty and should be offed.

astral_avocado ,

Let’s not pretend we’re in any better of a situation. Same exact thing could happen on any Lemmy server, especially since each server is a small fiefdom run by randos.

astral_avocado ,

The stripping of clothes is done to determine whether they have a bomb vest on, which is a 100% legitimate concern with Hamas who has used adults and children for suicide bombers. I don’t understand why this is so hard for people to grasp.

astral_avocado ,

Why doesn’t the employer just give them the fucking sick days

77 Groups Worldwide Back Genocide Lawsuit Against Biden in U.S. Court (theintercept.com)

In late December, 77 groups — representing tens of thousands of lawyers, civil society leaders, and activists from six continents — filed an amicus brief in a lawsuit that Palestinian human rights organizations, residents of Gaza, and U.S. citizens with family members impacted by Israel’s ongoing assault brought against...

astral_avocado ,

Purposeful targeting of civilians, mass murderer and rape of civilians, years of constant undirected rockets, suicide bombers and child suicide bombers after withdrawing entirely from gaza, equals a punch in the nose?

astral_avocado ,

How do you know they are indiscriminately bombing? How do you know they purposefully targeting civilians hospitals and schools? We’re not talking about Hamas here, which openly has been doing that constantly, for decades. With child suicide bombers mind you.

astral_avocado ,

Maybe if Hamas would stop making bombs and rockets out of literally anything they can get their hands on, in order to indiscriminately bomb Israel, they’d be more open to lifting the blockade.

astral_avocado ,

Did they?

astral_avocado ,

Apparently no one realizes this but if we want to stop this particular type of income we basically have to destroy how everyone’s long term and retirement savings work. He’s getting it from his share’s dividend income.

So at what amount do we guillotine someone? When they have accrued 1 million and are safely withdrawing 90k a year from their stocks/dividends? Are they allowed to do nothing and get income?

astral_avocado , (edited )

You can buy them right now, there’s more links in the 18650masterrace subreddit, but here’s just one:

srikobatteries.com/…/sodium-ion-18650-1250mah-50a…

However good luck finding a BMS that works for it’s particular voltage range, don’t think AliExpress has any yet.

I haven’t seen any posts from those diy type folks experimenting with them yet. Sodium ion cells just became available within the last few months or so.

astral_avocado ,

Fucking deranged tankies man, their Lord and Savior Hasan Abi has been going off about how “baby settlers” are valid military targets. These people yearn to live under a propaganda-military dictatorship.

astral_avocado ,

Like over a decade ago but they havent held elections since. I’ve seen countering articles saying Hamas has overwhelming support by the people, vs actually Hamas murders anyone who goes against them. So who knows. Fog of war and all that.

astral_avocado ,

What kind of democracy holds only a single election in 2006 and then no others?

astral_avocado ,

Except Hamas aren’t solely fighting for freedom, they specifically want ALL of Israel gone and ALL Jews killed, they literally want a theocratic dictatorship under Islam. And they won’t stop until they get it.

IDF and netanhayu are real dirty here, but Hamas and the (maybe) majority Palestinians that support them are like the anti thesis to a free society. Plus they’re violent homophobes that stone LGBTQ people to death.

That tips me to Israel’s side in this, minus the far right Jewish extremists that literally killed an Israeli prime minister because he was succeeding in brokering peace.

astral_avocado ,

Just use dokuwifi or media wiki or any of the already made OSS self-hosted solutions…

astral_avocado ,

Why don’t they have trade or receive resources from Egypt?

astral_avocado ,

I’ve read Hamas specifically runs military operations in civilian buildings like hospitals as a meat shield, is that not true?

Biden to announce first-ever federal office of gun violence prevention (www.politico.com)

President Joe Biden will announce the creation of the first-ever federal office of gun violence prevention on Friday, fulfilling a key demand of gun safety activists as legislation remains stalled in Congress, according to two people with direct knowledge of the White House’s plans....

astral_avocado ,

And that’s 99% of weapons, because what’s what guns do, they all kill things with a single trigger pull. You’re asking for a de facto ban and that’s absolutely a losing position.

And that’s not even to mention that your position effectively means “I only believe the police and the military should have guns”. Because that’s what would happen.

astral_avocado ,

Lol alright bro, please do it.
