Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•People who live in hot and humid regions, what do you generally do or have seen done to reduce the effects of the heat?
5·2 months agoIf you have access to a freezer.
Freeze icepacks and rotate them to your pockets, or sit them on your main leg artery.
Freeze a flat amount of ice and then place your feet on it to cool down.

Also the cooling neck-wraps with gel-beads, actually work to cool you down. Goes well with a fan blowing on you too.

Nice one.
Check out the night-place at Fitzroy Cr. Not perfect, but has had positive results.
Sensor lights in yard, combination club-lock for steering wheel, hidden-in-cab kill-switch installed through a relay, support any initiative for a local ‘night place’ for youth.
These kids are disaffected and need support options overnight.

The hype! The praise! The lack of mouse control!!
8 million kids using a twiddly joystick, and thinking it was good.
It’s an awful FPS experience.
* The facade of cool was actually a frog-mouthed monster.

And if this was your childhood fave, I’m jk.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to disable this blinking light on a WD External Hard Drive?
3·3 months agoOr a black marker, a couple of times.
Beaker and Swedish Chef, dead heat.
Did you talk to anyone else about how to solve it?
Consult any forums etc.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a common stereotype about your country or your ancestors’ country(ies) that just isn’t true?
1·4 months agoAnd the idea that in Oz, everything is out to kill you, not true.
Swam in a body of water today, that has ~25,000 of these freshwater crocs, not one of them bit me.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Workplace is forcing me to switch back to Windows :(
6·4 months agoRun MS OS like an app, inside a VM. Retain your Linux install.
First time installing solaar last week. Was from package manager on Trisquel(deb based).
All installed and detected automatically. Probably the same under Fedora.
Try a purge/uninstall of solaar, and then put the dongle in before you reinstall.
(Random aside. If your PC auto-resumes after suspend, it may have picked up a logitech keyboard from another room. Unpair it from your dongle)

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you think you would survive if you received every injury of your life at once?
7·5 months agoBroken wrist falling out of tree, broken nose on playground, fall down 3 stairs onto forehead, several years of skate falls. Should make it through all that with a weeks bedrest.
Then I remembered 3 years of ingrown big toenails… dead.
I bought Lathe of Heaven 3 weeks ago, and Le Guin seems a very socially conscious writer.
I would recommend Catch 22 or Confederacy of Dunces, as excellent satirical takes on the farcical aspects of war or 60’s US society.
