I work from home so I spend most of my time barefoot. Shoes always felt wrong in some way. Arch support felt like it was in the wrong place, too narrow, or other problems depending on the shoe I tried. Even Altras were just not quite right. I got some Merrell vapor gloves. They're zero drop and extremely thin (6mm stack height). Because of this, you have to run a little differently than you would in a traditional shoe, mainly just avoiding heel striking and paying more attention to what you're stepping on.

I'm taking it slow so I don't end up getting injured, but I still managed seven miles total in the first week with the new shoes.

I always forget what AD stands for, thanks for the reminder!

This "everyone wanted it to be up to the states" argument is exhausting. We don't have laws to restrict knee surgery, why do we need to restrict reproductive healthcare?

I finally found some shoes that don't hurt my feet! For the first time in my life I'm looking forward to going on more runs, intentionally holding myself back so I don't get injured from pushing it too soon.

I read "dork bork" and it made perfect sense for the picture.

I personally use LLMs in the workplace. It's great for generating boilerplate code, especially stuff that is often very repetitive like test classes.

I do wish we still had something on lemmy.world similar to the old vegetarian home cooking community. Vegan has ethical implications, which makes some people perceive it as all or nothing.

I think the /s stands for screaming. Which would be an appropriate response, given the situation.

Just bought it, going in blind. Can't wait to waste hundreds of hours on this like I did in factorio!

Acid is another magic ingredient. Lemon juice, vinegar, or even just straight citric acid from a shaker if you don't want to add more liquid. Sometimes something will taste like it needs more salt, but adding a touch of acid is actually what it needed.

Slow down there, Ron.

Coincidentally the odds are that almost exactly one will guess 9 out of 10 correctly, and about four people will guess 8 out of 10 correctly. Odds drop to about 1 in 1000 for guessing all 10 correctly.

 

I browse lemmy primarily through the local feed and mute communities I'm not particularly interested in. When a different community posts a link to a muted community, the post opens without showing any comments.

Example: I have muted the no stupid questions community. Someone posts a link to a post in that community to best of. That post opens fine and shows the correct number of comments, but no comments are visible.

 

This game is absolutely worth its full price of $40. The gameplay is very linear, but in a way that I quite enjoyed. The sequel, A Plague Tale: Requiem, is equally amazing. Easily two of my favorite games of all time.

 

When scrolling through a text post, the size and progress rate of the scroll bar varies dramatically depending on the length of the current comment. In the example below, the post body is very long, resulting in a tiny scroll bar with slow progress. Once you're down into the comments, the scroll bar is much larger and progresses faster.

Example: https://lemmy.world/post/6618261

 

I would like to filter comments based on keywords similar to how the post keyword filter works.

I would like to be able to block links from certain domains. For example, mute all posts leading to instagram.

 

Example: I would like to be able to filter out all communities that start with the word "shitty" by having a community filter for "shitty*".
