20-Year-Old Dies From 'Fried Rice Syndrome' After Eating Leftover Pasta
  • Toxins generated by bacteria and some fungi are EXTREMELY poisonous. The unfortunate victim essentially ate a poisonous mushroom in the form of pasta.

    I am shocked to see how many people leave food on the counter to eat later. Refrigerate it immediately! Not one hour, not twenty minutes! As soon as you’re done eating, to the fridge it goes!

    Nothing ever happens to you until it happens, and we’re not talking about stomach pain, but almost instant death.

  • "Hide read posts" not working, what am I doing wrong?
  • Answering to myself in case somebody searches for this issue later: it is indeed buggy. It fixed itself after a couple of days and usually works now. However, some days it doesn’t want to work. Sometimes a force quit from the app resolves this, other times I have to wait for it to come back to the intended behavior by itself.

  • "Hide read posts" not working, what am I doing wrong?

    Since about three days ago, I keep seeing read posts on my feeds (local, all, etc)

    I have disabled the switch to show read posts. I have also tapped the button that hides read posts. The posts appear as read, with a different font color in their title. But they are just not hidden.

    I have checked the GitHub issue tracker and this community and have found no other person raising this issue. Therefore I assume I must be doing something wrong. But what? I have not touched my settings basically since I installed voyager. Did a recent update break the “hide read posts” behavior?

    Threads federation?
  • I choose sdf because it has typically been neutral on those regards. Let users choose whether they want to block whole instances or not. Federation is literally the word that gives meaning to fediverse, I don’t agree with the arguments who want to make the fediverse an “alternative” internet isolated from the rest.

  • Outbound federation seems to be broken again. (Seems to be issue of Lemmy 0.19.0)
  • You are right with the issues you mention, but keep in mind that sdf is not a for-profit service and is therefore maintained as such. It is a huge operation keep afloat by a few people. I have had an account there for more than a decade and there are always issues with the different services, so if you want to follow a server that has nearly no downtime you will need to find some other place. Sorry about that.

  • Honestly, not US/World politics. That kind of content is permeating everywhere on the internet and gets annoying quickly for non-US people. I have nothing against the content itself. Keeping some communities clean from politics content helps engage people around the world of diverse ideologies. Thanks for being civil with this discussion.

    Edit: I now realize that you are a mod of this community and maybe it is me who is wrong about my expectations about what content should be here. I was maybe misled by the name “funhole” which I associated to Reddit’s “funny”

  • Lost all my settings with the new update

    Hello. I got the new update today and when I opened the app it asked me to add an account. Weird… I did and then I realized it had wiped all my settings. Lost all filters, appearance configuration, everything.

    I don’t know if they can be recovered but I want at least to warn other users to make a note of their settings before updating.

    This is Memmy 1.0 on iOS.

    DEF CON 31 - An Audacious Plan to Halt the Internet's Enshittification
  • The topic is very interesting to me but the video is almost an hour long with no slides. Does anybody have a transcript or outline of the talk?

    I'm not trying to troll or be sarcastic. I'd really appreciate the option to skim it without having to watch the full video. Thanks a lot!

  • Do Multivitamins actually do anything?
  • I think this is the best take. OP, multivitamins do work. Of course you need to fix your diet, of course it’s better to ingest the vitamin with the food so it can be absorbed better. Of course you should talk to a doctor. But if you have a deficiency of an important vitamin such as C or D, you will notice the difference.

    Regarding overdoses, it is almost impossible to hurt yourself by taking a typical OTC multivitamin pill.

    Consider some specific foods which give you a boost of the vitamin, such as canned tuna for Omega-3, Brazil nuts for selenium, etc.

    But, at the end of the day, the general recommendation is that multivitamins are safe and pretty decent. I wouldn’t recommend any drug to a random person on the internet but multivitamins are fine.

    Source: my wife is a nutritionist and we do talk about this a lot. I have a great diet but do take vitamins regularly as a complement or when I’m sick.
