If you have been bitten by an animal badly enough to have to go to the emergency room, what bit you?
  • Horror story time:

    As a child, my cousin liked to play in a small, wooded area close to his garden and one day, a long time ago, he must have had a tick. He didn't notice it, nobody noticed anything strange and years (10+ years) later he got problems with rheumatic attacks and arthritis. Doctors were stumped as an adolescent shouldn't present with this. They checked genetic factors which were negative and treated the symptoms. It got worse and worse over the years, many visits to many doctors and specialists, they all had no idea what the cause of his problems were.

    2 years ago (he is 38 now), he got a new knee joint and this year, he had to get a hip replacement because the arthritis. On a whim, a doctor did some tests and found that he has long-term Lyme borreliosis, likely from a tick, but never presented with the more common symptoms and had an unusually long onset time for the long-term effects of the untreated disease.

    All of his problems could have been prevented with a few doses of antibiotics.

  • It's crazy that a 60 ton metal airplane can just fly
  • It's like quantum tunneling, theoretically possible but not applicable to macroscopic objects. No matter how often you throw a tennis ball on a wall, it will never tunnel through even tho the calculated chance is non-zero and your amount of tries is infinite.

  • Chill in the air
  • still have a mosquito in my bedroom. little asshole hides when i turn on the light to smack it and it senses when i'm about to just fall asleep and that's when it attacks.

    fuck, i hate mosquitoes.

  • Dear Americans, be prepare to get screwed!
  • Just so you know: Germany's government basically imploded yesterday. Has been a long time coming, really.

    Also, if you move to any of the big cities (FFM, Hamburg, Bremen, Berlin) you won't need to speak German.

  • Why do masks make people so angry?
  • Yesterday, I was in the local Aldi to get some groceries and the cashier was sick. Coughing constantly, blowing her nose between customers. People complimented her for her strong will and eagerness to go to work despite being sick and found it admirable to act like this, I found it disgusting and was questioning my sanity.

    Why is it socially acceptable to spread your bullshit disease everywhere instead of just staying at home and recovering quicker? Humanity learned nothing from covid.

  • The World Is Full Of Crazies!
  • He is "confident" which for most means simple being a giant asshole without a hint of introspection or care for others. It's a trait people love because they wish they could bear being a giant asshole themselves but their fear of unfavorable judgement from others keeps them in check.

  • 6.9M is not a bad number
  • There was a video on YouTube once where some dude chucked a big chunk of caesium into a bathtub. It was amazing, thing just disintegrated violently, but I cannot find that video anymore. Probably deleted because YouTube doesn't like cool experiments.

  • Hate-filled conspiracy community hosted on tchncs

    discuss.tchncs.de The Bible And Its Believers In This World - tchncs

    This community was originally an embassy for Christ ⛪ in the fediverse, but due to the hateful nature of the fediverse toward their Creator, this embassy has been fortified into a military outpost on the frontier. 🏰 - “The Bible And Its Believers In This World”, this title specifies the First Class...

    The Bible And Its Believers In This World - tchncs

    This community, under the guise of Christianity and discussion thereof, is just a place filled with conspiracy theories and hatred.

    Exhibit 1: Bigoted, trans- and homophobic video. The comment section shows heavy mod abuse.

    Exhibits 2 and 3: Conspiracy theory. Again comment section is heavily "moderated".

    All of those posts are mod-posts because the community locked for non-moderators to create posts in. Is this really the kind of community that tchncs wants to foster?

    Often getting comments failing to load (both on mobile app and desktop)

    Hey,

    I'm noticing that I get many broken comment chains and comments failing to load. Is that just for me or does anybody else experience issues. I guess, it started when I was updating the mail address linked to this account a couple weeks back. The token I got with the email to verify my address was rejected (Invalid token) and since then, I'm having issues. My settings show the correct email and I cannot send a new token to verify (it says nothing about verification status). It was, probably incidentally, at the evening of when the lemmy update got installed onto this instance, so maybe I've chosen a bad time for the mail change.

    Here is a thread that showcases my problem:

    Maybe someone knows what's wrong.

    Thanks in advance!
