Yeah, we need electoral reform first 🙁

Yes.

It’s a TRV head. You can unscrew it with the ring under the black area - may need an adjustable spanner to loosen. When you take it off, see if the rotation works and that the pin inside moves up and down. You can also check the metal pin/valve where it attaches isn’t stuck (it may need quite a bit of force to check - could need whacking with a hammer if it’s actually stuck). If everything seems OK, re-attach the head and see if it’s working. If it isn’t, new heads are cheap. What you have looks like what I have - cheap generic TRV heads, easy to find online.

I don’t think automatic crossposting is a good idea. However some way to “boost” Mastodon posts onto Lemmy would be good. Mbin has a way of boosting but can’t assign a magazine. Something like that may work though. Mastodon can already boost Lemmy posts.

3. Increase alarm reset difficulty. The more you have to conciously engage your brain to reset your room to sleep mode, the harder it will be for your brain to automate the snooze button. Put your phone across the room, use an app that continues to scream until you scan a QR code in another room or solve math problems, make a deal with your partner that they get to spray you with cold water unless you correctly answer these riddles three, anything. Make it difficult for your brain to remain in sleep mode when your alarm goes off.

To add to this, you can get alarm clocks that literally run away when they go off so you have to chase or find them, and others that have a bit of a puzzle to solve to switch them off (I suspect there are phone apps that also have the latter, but I’ve never looked for them)

Upvoted for NetSurf. I wrote the Amiga frontend for it, and as such it’s my favourite browser on that platform (OS4 anyway - the OS3 build is very unstable)

Looks like this specific meaning of psych can be spelt sike - but not other definitions!

Tbh I’d never heard of this meaning in either spelling.

I have an alarm clock with two alarms on it. The first is radio, at a reasonable volume. The second is beep Beep BEEP with ascending volume. If the first doesn’t wake me the second will. Unless I press the off button and fall back to sleep.

I’m amazed the clock with the bell doesn’t wake you (if you mean one of the traditional alarm clocks with the bells on?). Those things are LOUD.

As sound isn’t working, maybe try one of those “silent alarms” which just turns a light on to help you wake up naturally (I haven’t tried these and would definitely have a beeping alarm as a backup!), or something like a Fitbit which can wake you up by buzzing on your wrist (and will adjust when it wakes you to match your sleep cycle)

I think this might work on !imaginaryfairies@lemmings.world if you want to post there.

That sucks 🙁

!boardgames@sopuli.xyz is the one I normally use now feddit.de is down. It seems a bit dead though.

!boardgames@lemmy.world is active as per your criteria.

Apparently deaf from birth people don’t make any noise when they sneeze, as they’ve not heard anybody else do it so don’t know they “should”.^[1] I’m not a particularly loud sneezer but it strikes me as odd that any noise at all would be learned behaviour.

Some people do make a lot of noise though, to the point where I’m thinking that it can’t all be involuntary.

Yep, it’s a PITA to parse and get the values you want. Much prefer JSON. Recently when I needed to parse XML I ran it through an XML to JSON library. Much easier!

If you need to parse XML just for RSS though, it isn’t so bad as there are RSS specific libraries which take most of the pain away.

I can only assume you’ve never tried to parse or read XML.

Probably about three.

I had some cheap (awful) mirror sunglasses back when they were all the rage, and a pair of prescription sunglasses before I started getting reactive lenses. I must have had at least one other pair but those are the only two I remember.

Are they not 25p?

Old enough to remember the fourth TV channel launching.

I’ve watched the first one - it’s alright! I thought it might be US-centric but David Braben is in it.

I’m not sure if they have a universal app, it’s definitely available on Roku devices.
