TIL miniblinds with pull cords to raise and lower them are now illegal to sell in the United States in c/til

In the US nearly every window that opens has a screen in it to keep insects out. That's why venetian blinds have gone out of favor in the past 70 years.

The AI overlords have spoken, and I will not besmirch the good name of my future rulers.

Same here! Too much union busting for me to feel comfortable buying things there. I'm sure they've done other stuff, but that alone was enough for me.

Is anyone surprised? in c/[email protected]

Ah, I wasn't aware. Thanks for the tip - I'll be sure to use it the next time I need to.

Democrat here. Didn't vote in this primary as, if I recall correctly, I would have had to write in anyone other than Biden. Didn't see the point, although I would have liked someone else. The party needs to get it's head out of its ass and start doing some of the long-term planning Republicans were doing pre-trump.

What's something weird and mostly useless that you can do with your body? in c/asklemmy

The trick is that while you hold your ears 'open', you have your lungs try to not breath out but you don't close your mouth. This lets the heart beating against your lungs be what pushes air in and out and then you hear the sounds of the air pulses as it moves past your eustachian tubes in your throat. Making sure your lungs are as full as possible is required so the lungs push against the heart.

I can do this. If I'm in a really quiet area, I like to take in a deeper breath and then exhale as slowly as possible while doing it, which then allows me to hear my heartbeat. Super nifty.

I can also use my soft pallet to block airflow from my throat to my nose. Can you do that too?

That's where I rely on "fake it till you make it".

#WhatchaReading ? I've been catching up on series I previously DNFd. Read Duke of Desire by Hoyt -- still way too emo and icky for me, I should've let it lay. Reading Cross Breed by Leigh -- ehh, she in c/[email protected]

A former coworker of mine recently wrote a book, "Holy Smoke". I haven't read it yet, but been hearing good things about it.

Feature request: option to view instance when viewing community on instance (self.syncforlemmy)

submitted 1 year ago by Lemisset to c/syncforlemmy

I love the new option to view instances. It would be great to have the ability to search for an instance or, when actively viewing a community, a button or context option to view the instance. Similar to how when you are viewing a post you could click on the community name to view the community. There are times when I'm browsing everything and see a new instance and want to view more but I can't find it in the list of instances.

Thanks for all the hard work LJ.

Feature request - custom community groups (self.syncforlemmy)

Hey, LJ. Loving the app so far.

Would be cool if we could group multiple communities together and even have several different groups so we could view that group rather than a single, local, or everything.
