  • The community is called “de-amazon”. It’s fine to say “bezos bad” but there’s plenty that the community could do beyond that.

    Amazon and brick-and-mortar big box stores killed a lot of small businesses, and now online shopping is the only way to go for a lot of items, especially niche stuff.

    Here are some ideas for actual useful posts in a community called “de-amazon”:

    Here are the best sites for all your cookware needs

    Anyone know some reputable sites to buy drone parts?

    How to make diy x so you don’t have to buy it!

  • Strangulation (done (in)correctly) can cut off the blood flow to the brain, which halts oxygen delivery to the tissues. Holding your breath just causes oxygen delivery to the blood to stop. Your body has enough blood and oxygen in it to last for a few minutes without breathing, but only as long as it is circulating to the tissues that require it.

    While holding your breath, the ratio of carbon dioxide to oxygen will steadily increase, which will eventually trigger some chemoreceptors and force a reflexive diaphragmatic contraction.

    Ah yes, all the benefits of having the privilege to pay $10 a month to play online, only have enough storage space for like 5 games with no expansion options, barred access to the vast majority of games, and limited options for voice chat and input devices.

    But I guess if you’re like 12 and all you play is 2k/madden/fifa/maybe COD and your parents are paying for it then it’s probably fine.
