Just another Lemmy user, and also an idiot who accidentally wiped his Lemmy instance not once but twice. Oh well, third time’s the charm.

  • A little over a year ago, I adopted a female kitten. But she had (and still has) endless supply of energy. I once spent like 1.5 hours playing with her to tire her out and in the end I was the one to tire out. So adopted another female kitten 1 month younger. After the standard introduction, they got along fairly well. But even to this day the older one likes to bully the younger one whenever she’s in the mood. After the bullying session (with comical yells for help) end, they’d often sleep right next to each other.

















  • Its actually a misconception, its not the fur thats causing the allergic reaction, its actually a protein the cats produce that can be found in their saliva. So when they groom themselves, the protein gets onto their fur.

    Interesting fact, intact males produce more of this protein compared to female and neutered males.

    Also, you can buy certain cat food that will help manage the protein (it doesn’t eliminate or stop it being produced, it just deactivates the protein). So thats one possible solution for people with allergies. Though if you’re super sensitive, it mightn’t help much.

    EDIT: here’s the source



  • I’m not really the correct person to answer this, since I’m not struggling to the same degree as you are.

    However I once heard a good tip on how to save money. Most people, when they receive their salary spent it first on the necessities (food, rent, etc) and then save the remainder (if anything is left). But instead you should first save a percentage of your pay before spending on any necessities. That way, your brain will try to make the best use the remaining money to survive the best it can


  • I don’t really mind nor care when someone is wrong about something as long as they’re not bothering/affecting other people.

    For example:

    Someone believes that flat earth is real. Fine, whatever, you’re not really going to cause any harm with this.

    On the other hand, during the pandemic, when people refused to wear masks/take vaccines. Then it becomes a problem because they’re affecting other people (potentially putting them at risk)

    Anything on the web that is accessible by you is accessible by web scrapers. So to answer your question, yes.

    Unless Lemmy goes down the route of Twitter (I refuse to call it by its new name, it’s dumb) of blocking access unless you login. That’s just how things are.

















  • Agreed.

    I once worked on a team in a company who had to ssh into a server and do all the development work on that server. So all we could use was either vim or emacs. I had my vim decked out with all the plugins and customizations, and it was fine.

    But after you get back to using an IDE (especially an IDE with a vim plugin), it’s hard to go back
