Been on it for about 7 months now. I started taking it as I noticed thinning at the front, the crown was already thinning, but I can’t see it so I don’t care. I feel happier in my hair, I have less than I did when I was in my 20’s but it has stopped the loss and allowed for some recovery.

I really had to think hard about going on it. My family has a history of depression, and I’ve been able to escape it. My biggest worry is that it would trigger some kind of depression. I’ve not had any issues in this area thankfully!

My willy still functions perfectly too, so I’m not aware of any side effects, and I’ve seen hair retention and regrowth. The first couple of months I did experience some shedding, but it wasn’t bad. It’s satisfying seeing some little sprouts of hair reappear.

Yeah fair enough, you’re right, I should have been specific in saying Windows and MacOS.

I believe the point still remains that intolerances exist on Lemmy.

I agree Windows sucks, just pointing out an intolerance! I think no matter what social we go on it will eventually become an echo chamber and people will be intolerant as their hatred grows.

Another example is AI. Lemmy is intolerant of AI outside of AI specific communities, but go to LinkedIn and you have people circlejerking over how great their vibe coding is.

Back when Reddit made it’s API change and I moved to Lemmy, it felt like people were still getting a feeling of things, there would be more discussion on subjects. As time is going on I’m seeing discussion around subject diminish. I guess it could have been because there was less posts? Or could it be as time has gone on people have become less tolerant of things Lemmy generally doesn’t like?

It’s definitely intolerant of any OS that is non-linux

Enjoying it very much. For a game that isn’t even complete it is so solid on the gameplay. Feels different enough from the first game, but also the same.

Not sure if it will become my favourite deck builder over Monster Train 2, but it’s still a fantastic early access game.

Have a “sorting hat” that will assign people to an instance based on their interests could be good.

May have to try this next time! Normally I gulp lots of air until I can’t anymore, then hold my breath until I can’t, and breath out really slowly. It works but can be uncomfortable to do at times.

There was a contestant on the UK Apprentice show that did just that, and was apparently seeing success.

Monster Train 2 if you like card games. It’s got a load of content and replay and they recently released a patch today to add more!

it is useful as a sort of better google, like for things that are documented but reading the documentation makes your head hurt so you can ask it to dumb it down to get the core concept and go from there

I agree with this point so much. I’m probably a real thicko, and being able to use it to explain concepts in a different way or provide analogies has been so helpful for my learning.

I hate the impact from use of AI, and I hope that we will see greater efficiencies in the near future so there is less resource consumption.

I don’t believe there is a requirement for employers in the UK to pay for lunch breaks?

I’m not advocating for American chlorinated chicken, but I’m not sure our chicken is to a much higher standard. Over the last few years I’ve noticed a decline in the quality of our chicken from white striping to woody breast. I guess this is caused by them using breeds that grow quickly.

They made a new game, Aethermancer which is pretty good so far!

Not just the notes, but I feel like they put more effort into making sure the text doesn’t blend with what is on screen. Instances on Netflix of some shows where there will be white text with a white background, and the text has no drop shadow or black border.

Monster train 2 is even better!

If you haven’t tried it, it’s worth giving Monster Train 2 a go, it’s given me lots of playtime and they recently released an update.

It has a loose story to get to the center of the universe, but I can’t say I’ve ever made it there as I always end up doing other things

I don’t know a great deal, but his stance on the Russia/Ukraine war concerns me.

I remember it because one is a bumper and the other is a trigger. Bumper like the front of a car, and a trigger like…a trigger.

I personally prefer the asymmetric joysticks over the playstation symmetrical ones. RB, RT is descriptive of the button itself. B being Bumper and T being trigger.

I do agree with you in the shapes being more memorable though.
