Libertus@lemmy.worldtoMental Health@lemmy.world•New study: Spending just 15 minutes with a dog can significantly relieve stressEnglish
1·10 days agoThanks for the kind words :) I completely don’t understand such childish behaviours, completely out of step with the current world full of actual moral challenges, rather than justifications for becoming agitated over trivial matters because someone said something they don’t like. And yes, I ignore such people. I have enough years under my belt and enough self-awareness not to bother with them. And you are absolutely right that some people, because of being pointed at by the mob for expressing their emotions (especially in a blunt manner), may start to feel guilt and doubt whether what they feel is “correct” and “healthy”. This takes away the arena for clashing viewpoints and is socially harmful. I have a habit of expressing myself in a blunt and graphic way, and I have no intention of changing that. Besides, acting otherwise, I simply wouldn’t survive in adult life and at work.

Dear armchair psychologists. Where exactly did I write that I killed any animal or in any way violated its bodily integrity?
I simply am not afraid of my emotions, I don’t feel guilty about feeling and expressing them.
And as for opinions on the topic of my psychological stability, my therapists would burst out laughing seeing these comments.
P.S. Do you people even know what hyperbole is?

16·11 days agoYou know… The fact that you like dogs, and I find them irritating at best and repulsive at worst, doesn’t indicate a psychological problem. I generally like animals. I live in a house surrounded by greenery and I really love the birds I take care of, the hedgehogs, and the squirrels who take care of themselves ;)

512·11 days agoFor me, being in the same room for a few minutes with a smelly, loud creature that climbs on your lap and licks your hands and face only makes me want to wring its neck. And it would be even better if it tried to do that after licking its own balls or after eating human feces it found in the park.
On the other hand, simply interacting with an animal that is compatible with a given person will have a positive effect on their psyche.

Unfortunately, the issue is more widespread in the world of UI design. Even in closed ecosystems like Windows, you have a random mix of different UI styles, and this cancer called “flat design” makes things even worse. Carl Svensson published a nice blog post about exactly this issue a couple of years ago: https://datagubbe.se/decusab/

World News@lemmy.ml•On this day in 1943, thousands of Polish civilians were massacred by Ukrainian Nationalist death squads in Poland's "Bloody Sunday," the bloodiest day in a broader campaign of genocide.
1411·7 months ago@Objection@lemmy.ml Please tell me specifically what makes this qualify as news. Will you now publish every anniversary from around the world? Or are you just another person trying to antagonize Poles and Ukrainians? Because it clearly looks like the latter. What do you say about another important anniversary for Poles? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyn_massacre We Poles remember very well who has been trying to destroy us for decades. Here’s another suggestion perfect for future anniversaries you could commemorate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_repressions_of_Polish_citizens_(1939–1946)
Red Hat 5.0 “Hurricane” from 1997. I still have the CD.
I would rather suggest checking “about: support”, not “about: config”.
This reminds me of a certain Star Trek TNG episode titled “The Arsenal of Freedom”. Especially one specific moment of the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmDm8MVhZiQ&t=148s

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the worst movie that you enjoy watching?
1·1 year agoDeath Machine (1994)











The Fly (1986).
I watched it only once, in the 90s, and I’ve never been able to watch it again since. At the same time, I think it’s an excellent film.
The seemingly light and even humorous beginning of the film is bit by bit replaced by the sheer horror of the gradual loss of humanity and the final transformation into a monster. Simultaneously, in my perception, a glimmer of hope for a good ending is created, only to be ruthlessly destroyed at the very end. Even the music from this film feels overwhelming to me.
I highly recommend it, but you should never watch it ;)
