Yup, had a massive panic attack from gummies. Went to the hospital because I thought I was having a stroke. Got pumped full of lorazepam and slept for 26 hours. Full day of my life gone.

Glad to hear I'm not alone! I like weed, but the potential for panic attacks is too scary.

My son started saying "what the sigma?" constantly. I've tried to figure out where it came from and only landed on some "Sigma Male" shit on youtube.

Drives me nuts.

Okay, very confusing question...

So, assuming you want to know how heavy only the "solid at room temperature" elements of the sun are, let's try this.

The sun is 1.989 × 10^30 kilograms.

According to this: https://www.thoughtco.com/element-composition-of-sun-607581 we can see the % of total mass for each element.

  • Element % of total atoms % of total mass
  • Hydrogen 91.2 71.0
  • Helium 8.7 27.1
  • Oxygen 0.078 0.97
  • Carbon 0.043 0.40
  • Nitrogen 0.0088 0.096
  • Silicon 0.0045 0.099
  • Magnesium 0.0038 0.076
  • Neon 0.0035 0.058
  • Iron 0.030 0.014
  • Sulfur 0.015 0.040

Doing the math and removing the "gas at room temperature" elements... the total mass would be:

1.7901 * 10^28 kilograms

Note: Pretty sure I've messed something up here in the calculations but the mass is so ridiculously heavy that I don't think it really matters.

Ahhh Ticket to Rage. My wife's family is not allowed to play that anymore.

My son's only 8 so I have no personal experience parenting a tween/teen. So take that into consideration with my advice.

How about the next time you're watching with them, try this:

"I was raised allowed to moderate my own content because I was trusted to be intelligent and wise enough to critically select what I watched or read and learn from the mistakes I made if I consumed something negatively influential. I have tried to extend this same trust to you, but the constant repetition of what you hear and your inability to form a cogent argument makes me feel like your YouTube viewing habits are teaching you to accept concepts at face-value simply because they are popular.

If you will engage with me in a discussion on these videos, I'll leave you alone and continue to trust you on this. However, if you continue to shrug and dismiss the conversation, I will have to consider blocking this content until you are ready to engage with me on a deeper level."

I know modern parenting advice tells us to prefer reward over punishment so if there's a reward strong enough to motivate them to engage, go with that. But if punishment is a greater motivator, I'd say damn the modern parenting advice.

After reviewing the footage, Sedef realized that the bears always opted for the Anzer honey, proving they have very good taste. According to The Guardian, Anzer honey is “produced from the nectar of 90 flowers that grow only in the mountains of the Anzer plateau.”

This is pretty interesting. Considering Anzer plateau is in Turkey and this took place in Turkey, I wonder if the bear prefers the honey because it's truly better or the taste is familiar to the bear, being in Turkey and all.

  • Dedicated subs for anime girls (wtf y'all?)
  • Sports
  • Linux
  • Subs not in english (nothing against them)
  • Video games I don't care about
  • Furries
  • City-specific subs
  • AI Art
  • Vegans
  • Niche music subs

Pretty much anything where I'm not or never will be the target demographic

You're probably right on the grand scheme of things. However, I find recruiters are a dime a dozen. When job postings in my area that match my skill set are posted, I get 5-6 recruiters messaging me for the same job. So, at least for me, I wouldn't worry about burning bridges with a single recruiter.

[–] Muun@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago (4 children)

I’ve been on the hiring end of those conversations before, and frankly I prefer it when a candidate withdraws.

This, so much, this.

I've done many interviews on the hiring side. They're exhausting. If you're not interested in the job, please don't interview. No repercussions will be had and any (introverted) ICs that were going to be pulled into the interview will breath a sigh of relief.
