Some stupid meme will appear in my head while I'm in public and a stupid grin will force itself into my face and obviously I don't want people to look at me and think I'm crazy, or worse ask what I'm laughing about and the only thing that was on my mind was "born to shit, forced to wipe".

What are some mundane goals you can recommend to someone trying to improve their fitness? For example, after watching a video while sitting down on the floor with my knees bent, I realised I could stand up without using my hands or resting my leg on the floor. It's indicative of core strength, right? I often do push-ups. So what else are some day-to-day actions that should become easier when improving fitness and what exercises can you do achieve them?

I've seen this question asked on Reddit multiple times, and the comments usually say that sunflower oil is not healthy because it contains high amounts of linoleic acid, HOWEVER, all of them were in the context of the high amounts of Omega-6 in the American diet which doesn't apply to me... so I would like some answers with less bias towards the American diet.

Not referring to lucid dreaming, which is simply controlling your dream. I'd like to know how to control what I dream the next night, regardless if it ends up as a lucid dream.

I remember reading a portion of a book then dreaming about it the day later. I am also aware of the "shifting" community (though they want to go to an entire alternate universe) in which they script throughout the day and sometimes get dreams related to it. Is there an actual practice for this sort of thing? Or is this something that happens only randomly?

I've heard of this concept multiple times throughout my time on the internet, but I never understood what causes a "server load". Now that I'm in one of the biggest instances on Lemmy, this is one of the significant issues that we face. So what is a "server load", why does it slow down websites instead of stopping them? Does the load on a server increase by the amount of information in it, the browsing of information, or both? Does upvoting and downvoting cause a load too? Does saving posts and comments to your profile also cause a server load?
