No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do trains save fuel when they literally park on the tracks and block multiple intersections, with over a hundred vehicles steady burning gas all around waiting for the train to fucking move?
21·7 months agoAC/heat doesnt work when the vehicle is turned off. Some vehicles require getting out and smacking the starter with a hammer to get it to turn over. Just to give a couple of reasons why you wouldnt want to turn off your vehicle when stuck by a train.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you're sexually frustrated & can rarely find a mate & decide to live a life of "nofap," what are the effects that buildup of sexual frustration has?
3·7 months agoWhile the reason for someone to follow “nofap” varies from person to person. It does not come from religion. It is mainly a movement to help fight porn addiction.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Managing knowledge and feelings that can't be shared
2·8 months agoMaybe look into bullet journaling? Its not as straight forword as just writing down your thoughts. Its a more intimidating form of journaling, but in a good way. When i used that method i found that its complex format did a really good job at filtering my thoughts. Which took a lot of weight off my shoulders, allowing me to put more focus into bettering myself.

3·8 months agoStart by just writing what you did that day. When you woke up. What you ate. Who you interacted with. How you felt throught the day. Eventually you will start to open up to yourself. Thats when the words seem to start writing themselves.

Technology@beehaw.org•Valve compares its loot boxes to Labubus in lawsuit defense
21·8 months agoThere has been a lot of posts about how people order a single SSD from amazon and end up with a whole box of SSDs. And if i go to amazon and order just a single SSD in hopes amazon screws up and sends me a full box instead, then i just gambled.
Should we go after amazon for encouraging gambling?

3·8 months agoI honestly am not sure this is only about addiction. Instead i think this is mostly about parents who dont monitor their childs activites and want aomeone to blame for their child spending thousands of dollars on a video game.

3·8 months agoI still believe that is too broad of a definition. I go back to carnaval games. Those are games of skill but they are made in away to reduce your chance of winning, so luck is still a major factor.
Meanwhile loot boxes are neother a game of chance or a game of skill. They are a purchase and you get what you get. What are those mystery box toys called that everyone was going crazy for last year? LuLu dolls or whatever. Those are loot boxes. Should we regulate them like we are trying with video game loot boxes?

5·8 months agoSure Japan has a way to protect people in regards to the claw machine. But gacha games and gachapon are huge in japan. And those are more predatory than loot boxes. So we still need to draw the line and sort out what actually is and isnt gambling.
Look at carnaval games, a mobile gambling group that targwts children? If we have loot boxes be labeled as gambling who is to say that we wont label everything else as gambling.
Where is the line?

231·8 months agoClaw machines are gambling. Those coin machines that you get a sticker or a plastic spider out of is gambling. Kids having been gambling for decades. Hell even coin pushers is gambling.
I feel like we need to fully define gambling before any of this is settled. I believe anything where you give money for some kind of return but have a chance of recieving nothing back, then that is gambling. If you are guaranteed to get something for your money then thats not gambling. Thats just a purchase.
