For those stumbling on this, oglaf is not web crawled, so you have to know the url. Also, the format is a bit weird, and it it seems you’re missing a few panels, look around. Amazing comic.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it just me, or are people becoming more prudish?
4·24 days agoI was invited to an orgy on a yacht this year, so maybe it’s just certain areas.
Mine are teens now, here are a few pointers:
Let them help with the dishes/garbage/sweeping. I know they’ll make a bigger mess now, but in a few years they take well to chores.
When they start asking questions, always treat them with respect like they’re a smart person who’s missing a chunk of knowledge.
How you respond to falls and failures shapes their lives. When they fall, ask if they need help up. If they ask if it’s okay, say it’s going to be okay. When they mess up, ask if they can help you clean up without going into blame, other than discussing how to avoid that in the future.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Should I Read a Brian Hebert Dune Novel?
1·2 months agoImagine if a great artist had some notebook sketches, and his son finger-painted all over them and then tried to sell them.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Does a 'Welcome' mat give vampires permission to enter your house?
1·2 months agoWould one of those “Hate is not welcome here” signs prevent them from entering, or does that depend on if the vampire hates their victim? I don’t hate the cow in my cheeseburger, so I’m guessing not.
A flower would also be acceptable.

Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•I guess this maybe ELI10 because of my patient. He wants to be a "hacker" I don't really know much about it but he wants to do it for good. Is this possible or something??English

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What would happen if the US got rid of the majority of their bases and brought all the stationed soldiers home? What would be the impact on society, the economy, and other things?
1·5 months agoFor the military, think about Amazon. They can get you a new dildo tomorrow because they have a huge infrastructure of warehouses around the country. The US has a world network of “supplies” for war that will be reduced and create more risk and a time delay if US interests are threatened. In practical terms, you don’t punch an American because America can punch you back tomorrow. If the US maybe can punch you back next week, you’re less concerned with ignoring their interests.
Practically, the local economies will hurt badly, like the Philippines after they reduced the US navel presence. There is also a “living next to a cop” effect that has had more value in the past, but has soured like the idea of living next to a cop.
For the US, we would now need to house all these troops locally, and would end up greatly reducing force size over 20 years. A big pile of active tanks training in Germany doesn’t get much news, but a bunch of expensive tanks training next to a huge line at a soup kitchen is a great photo op.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I'd like to change my last name and want suggestions

Can anyone read this comment? It won’t load for me.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Tell me about when you saved someone's life
1·5 months agoI once was taking a nice old man to the hospital, when he stopped breathing. I gave him a second and tried to rouse him, and he was pretty stubborn about it, but he still had a weak pulse. I called to my partner.
“Hey, how close are we to the hospital?”
“About 5 minutes, why?”
“Well, he’s not breathing. So if you hit any traffic, hit the lights, will you?”
I bagged him for about 3-4 minutes. Traffic was light, and we were making pretty good time, so we decided not to freak anybody out. The guy came to, and looked confused.
“What happened,” he asked.
“You stopped breathing, so I was breathing for you.”
“Oh. Thank you.”
“You are very welcome.”
He’s still the only person who ever said thank you when I tried to save their life.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Your Truck is Stupid BigEnglish
1·6 months agoIt’s that big so it can reach the 2 fuel pumps needed to fill up.
There’s something important to understand about LLMs. You need to imagine them as a crowd of 1,000 people, who you use an algorithm on, to get close to the most popular opinion on the answer.
Only Jesus takes the wheel. God is his copilot.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•In the US one can graduate *cum laude, magna cum laude, and summa cum laude*. There should be another honor added if you survive a school shooting.
4·11 months agoLook we have enough participation trophies, we don’t want to bog down the ceremonies with another 400 awards. Also some of these people will be limping, possibly in wheelchairs. And god forbid we have a shooting at the event and we didn’t bring enough medals.
I kinda feel like this is sarcasm but I’m not even sure any more. How did we get here?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the biggest case of planned obsolescence you've dealt with?
5·11 months agoI feel like you have the ethical upper hand, keep doing what you’re doing.
A bit of a dry spell, huh?


Ourgasm.
