The easiest way to do this is to spread water over successive parts of your body with your hands - I usually start with my thighs, then legs, then belly and butt, then chest, neck, then face. After that you should be good to get in the water. somehow it's less painful if it's applied by a warm hand, and yet it gets you comfortable in the cold just the same. curious... ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1779 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: AI, furries │ └──────────────────────┘ @user-1077 image generators trained on stolen artwork are unethical image generators are a disability aid art is human (and human adjacent) expression art is more valuable than profit artists should be supported as they make art these are all things I believe ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1780 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── @user-217 the eyes of the queen ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1781 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: thorn-in-my-paw │ └──────────────────────┘ got a thorn in my knuckle. a small one, and it was difficult to remove. long, too. now my finger bones hurt T.T ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1782 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── @user-883 Honestly I'm kinda surprised they didn't do that already...? Seems like an obvious move to me. Adblockers will just need to get better. And they will, have no fear. Even if that means automatically skipping to the correct part of the video or something. Downside is tools like youtube-dl might receive the added ad. But they can also evolve and strip it out if necessary. It's just extra work that could be used on more productive things >.> ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1783 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── @user-883 Or we get serious about nationalizing it ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1784 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── @user-883 It's hardly JUST entertainment. Video is an intrinsic part of the internet. It is one of the best mediums we have for communicating complex ideas. The internet is an integral part of our daily lives, it's something we all share - so perhaps we should nationalize ALL of our networking infrastructure? Not every website, of course, but rather the most important. Like Google, and Facebook, and Youtube, and Amazon, and perhaps a few more. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
