1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This isn't an advice forum

Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

It's been at 80F / 26C for 10 hours.

There goes $8. Dang.

Oof.

I hate winter, but it's one redeeming quality is if I am feeling lazy or accidentally leave cold food in the car after a grocery trip, it's no big deal.

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

Yes, that part is pretty awesome.

During the pandemic I forgot two oranges in the car. I didn't drive much an the time, so it may have been over a week or more before I rediscovered them in there. Took a while for the car to stop smelling like mold.

one time when we still lived with my parents me and my brother splurged and got steaks to make for dinner the next day, but we forgot them in the trunk of the car, such a bummer, I had to talk my brother out of eating it after it sat in a hot car for 24 hours

Doh!

I did look it up online to see if I could risk the yogurt.

Hmm, I actually haven't been out to the car to get it. But that's a good point, because it will soon be 95 F.

Nobody wants yogurt all over their interior.

[–] Tower@lemm.ee 4 points 5 days ago

I mean... some people pay just to watch someone else put yogurt in someone's interior.

The other day I spent $13 on some live coconut yoghurt with maple, cacao and jaggery thinking it would be amazing. Tasted like sour yoghurt. Shit happens.

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago

Damn, I love sour yoghurt but it's hard to find. Most commercial yoghurt is too sweet/bland, and I'm too lazy to make my own.

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That does sound worth trying. I got some from Sam's Club with honey. It's nice, but not live.

[–] werty@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

I'm here to tell you it was not worth trying, my friend. On the other hand, I would have wondered if I hadn't. I also tried a croffle that day and it was everything I hoped for. That's croissant dough cooked in a waffle iron.
