Maybe adding some Cloudflare service or similar would benefit Lemmy. I think Kbin has it but that is moot as long as other instances don't.

Especially since a grease fire is very hard to put out unless you smother it. Using an extinguisher on a grease fire is not a good idea.

 

Why YSK: TV has lied to you. If a cardiac arrest happens and you have an AED defibrillator at hand you might still need to do chest compressions.

  1. When you open up the AED there will be instructions on how to apply the electrodes as well as any other procedure needed to get started.
  2. The machine will first analyze the heart's rhythm to find out if a shock can restore the heart.
  3. If the machine doesn't find anything it will instruct you to perform CPR. After a while it will then instruct you to stand by as it does another analysis.
  4. It will once again either deliver a shock or instruct you to go back to CPR. Do this routine indefinitely until medical services has arrived. You will be tired. Switch out with another person if there are other people who can help.
  5. Some AED's are automatic and will warn you to stand back and deliver a shock. Others will need you to press a button to deliver the shock yourself. Make sure not to touch the person as the machine delivers the shock.

The real YSK is of course in the comment. =) Thank you for expanding on this. It's always important to make sure you are prepared. You don't have time to google these things when the disaster is at hand. If you're not prepared when a fire breaks out you might panic and make dumb decisions. This goes for all stressful situations of course. Make sure you have some plan for common emergencies. That goes for medical emergencies as well as fires.

 

Why YSK:

If you're planning to get an extinguisher for your home you need to know that not all extinguishers can put out all types of fire. There are many intricate details if you're interested but for the most part, a dry powder extinguisher can put out many types of fires at the cost of being incredibly messy. On the other hand, a carbon dioxide extinguisher is perfect for electronic fires and doesn't require much clean up. Make sure to get an extinguisher for your needs. Maybe consider getting multiple extinguishers.

As an addendum: If you use a fire extinguisher even just a little you need to either discard it or refill it depending on type. Never put the extinguisher back as is.

I'm not really into Marvel anymore, but please continue posting. There are too few people here yet but diligence will help these places grow. It's like the mod of /r/disney said on Kbin. A subreddit of 500k people like Disney only generated a few dozen posts a day. It's difficult to start from scratch but we need people like you!

Intressant. Undrar vad för implikationer detta kan medföra. Såklart är det bekvämt att kunna ha det i mobilen, men finns det något som inte är en så uppenbar följd av detta?

Ska kolla på den! Alltid bra att få det perspektivet innan man ger sig in i något som kan ha negativa konsekvenser. Blir lätt att folk håller fast vid sitt beslut i efterhand oavsett om det faktiskt blev bra eller inte. Man vill ju inte vara den som slänger massor med pengar på något och får det sämre, så då kan man intala sig själv att det var värt det även om det kanske inte var det. Sen kan det mycket väl vara så att det är värt det. Men inte fel att få lite perspektiv på det hela. Tack!

Funderar på att göra lasik eller liknande ögonoperation. Passar nog bäst att göra på semestern tänker jag. Någon som vet hur det funkar?

Case in point. We're having this discussion right now. I think it's fine to still be subscribed to Beehaw unless I'm missing something. I guess you might just be typing to people that can't reply. The OP for instance.

Jo, men det räcker inte alltid. Man måste lyssna också så man inte råkar möta någon på våningen under heller.

Jag har bott i min lägenhet i ungefär 5 år nu och har nästan inte sagt ett ord till mina grannar förutom ett bajsnödigt "Hej" när man möter dom i trappuppgången. Känns dock allt för sent att börja prata nu. Men det kanske är mer pinsamt om tanten under mig dör och ingen upptäcker det.
