Are there any websites similar to instagram, but don't ask a viewer to sign in to view content.

Nitter has helped with Twitter(formally X).
Fb and insta usage is low because there are no nice frontends.

Both about a new topic or a topic that you already are interested in.

There are TIL communities here on lemmy and they are good, but mostly not about using the info to do things.

Any websites, rss feeds, youtube channels, lemmy(or other site) communities etc. that you subscribe to for that?
And going beyond online stuff, any books or publications or groups that you like?

From my personal experience, the shaking action(have not tried shake weights) is not useful for muscle building.

Started isometrics where I push against the sides of my heads and resisting it.
And also turning the head side to side.
I think its good. Feels nice, especially after looking at pc/mobile screens for some time.

Are there any exercises for other parts of the body, that we don't normally think about?

What is a recent(or maybe significant) thing that you learnt to do(or taught someone else to do) that was pretty good and think more people should know of or try out? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Recently started using mail merge.
Combined it with some vba scripting(didn't learn it well, just found some scripts on the net and modified them a bit) so that I could get pdf files for emailing by clicking a macro button from an excel sheet.

Also, go to use the info about the keyboard mouse right click button when someone's Right Mouse Button was not working. https://www.online-tech-tips.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Windows-Right-Click-Button.jpg

I mentioned only computer things because of recency, but please do share your experiences in other topics too.

Deception in c/memes@lemmy.ml

If that's how they place the blame, then that'd be cool.

But other than that, in reality, it likely seems to become a blame game, where they don't want to look at why they lost the trust of the folk who they are blaming.

Though, I'm just seeing online interactions. Maybe offline interactions are much more decent and useful.

Not a USAmerican, but by that logic:
Are Kamala, her party and her supporters who couldn't get those people to vote for Kamala also responsible for the increased suffering?

Are they responsible for the people not being convinced that the suffering would be lesser under Kamala?

Did Kamala and party show significant effort and good faith to woo those people?
Or was it the 99% Hitler vs 100% Hitler thing? Asking since most online discourse I saw on it here in lemmy was like that, where they're saying Trump would be worse, instead of saying that Kamala would be better, de-escalate stuff etc.

What are some one liner comments or quotes you read that have stuck with you for years? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Achyu@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Thank you. Been thinking about finding good leftist quotes to as my phone wallpaper. Are there more, shorter quotes?

I'm curious about the intro reading list. I've tried the manifesto and listened to some audiobooks by Dessalines. Are there newer articles that are recommended, that summarise/improve the pre-existing content? Especially ones that talk about how the things were/are to be applied.

If you wanted to dial-down our incessant breeding without getting lynched, how would you do it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Achyu@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is there incessant breeding?
Aren't TFR's going down in most regions?

The best thing then would be focusing on the places that lag behind.

In my opinion, the best initial steps would would be increased literacy and scientific temper together with good quality public education and healthcare
Together with properly planned mechanisation n automation this would help most people.

Started doing simple dumbbell exercises recently and was curious about what others are doing.
Been trying simple neck exercises too. No weights, just chintucks and isometrics.

Please do share your experience/suggestions/opinions on the it and related topics like sports, calisthenics, general physical health etc.

Do you know any exercises that are rare? Or ones that seem special to your locality?

Regarding food:
How do you meet your protein or calorie goals? How do you track it? Especially food that is local to your place.

On a tangent:
Are there cool plants that are less known or that'd be useful if more people tried growing and including them in their diets? Do mention your locality or climate of the plant.

I do get things done. But sometimes I think that I could have started some things early, avoid rush. Also a sort-of negative perfectionism that does the opposite, where I end up delaying the start while thinking about the best time to start and how to avoid possible trouble etc.

How do you categorise and adjust accordingly about such stuff?
If you are someone who got out of or reduced such behaviour(or helped someone to do that), what were the things that you/they did? How did you/they start out and progress etc.

Thanks in advance

Are people less aware of the Munich agreement compared to the Molotov–Ribbentrop agreement? And also about the Bengal famine? In your opinion, what other events seem to be less known? (lemmy.sdf.org)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreement
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pact

Recently got banned in a community when I brought it up, when they talked about the latter.

I'm Indian, didn't really have to read too much(on such treaties and other stuff. We do learn about the dates, major groups involved and our own people) about WW1 and WW2 before getting on the internet forums.
But how is it in Western countries?

Also, is the Bengal famine of 1943 taught?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_famine_of_1943
I only got the gravity of the situation after reading about it and seeing pictures on the net.

Are there any other events that should be more known by others, in your opinion?

I hope this is not too political. If it is, do forgive me, I'll delete this.

Edit:
Recently read about the Travancore famine of 1943, that killed around 90,000 people. It happened in my state, Kerala. But I never really knew about it.

Apps that I know:

  • For images - Pocketpaint, Freepaint
    Fossify Gallery has a basic editor with draw, crop and filters. Tux paint is also nice to draw stuff.
  • For video
    • Video transcoder allows basic cutting of audio n video.
    • Saw an app called Bunny media editor, that allowed basic image and video cropping and cutting.
    • I've also heard that some people use Termux for it

Are there other apps like these?
Which all apps do you use to edit images/videos and make memes etc?
