No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are products "for curly hair" supposed to straighten hair, make them more curly, or just formulated not to effect the curl at all?English
1·21 days agoIf you want to think about it grammatically, it would be “for curling hair” or “for straightening hair” if the function of the product was to make your hair more curly or more straight.

Dad Jokes@lemmy.world•What do you call an Irishman who stays outside all summer?English

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•‘Please avoid chugging your ranch’: TSA forced to issue warning as foreign World Cup fans fall in love with American condimentEnglish
2·1 month agoIt is my understanding that mustard is often used as an emulsifier, especially in homemade mayo. But I don’t really like mayo, so I’m not an expert.
Is the mustard flavor you’re talking about subtle, or in your face?
It should be fairly simple to make a pull through mayo at home if you have a stick mixer.

Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube Premium just got more expensive again: now $16 a month, or $27 for familiesEnglish
2·1 month agoIf she uses Safari, there are some good plugins. Not all are free. StopTheMadness Pro is not cheap but is a solution for many annoyances, not just YT. UnTrap for YouTube allows you to hide many elements like shorts. And SponsorBlock automatically skips sponsored segments. If she uses the YouTube app, delete it and set up a shortcut on the home screen to open the web version instead.
Me too! And it is so easy to make.
Looks wonderful. What sauce do you eat it with? This one is usually a crowd pleaser.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should you renounce your current citizenship if moving abroad permanently?English
3·2 months agoYeah, unless you’ve been abroad for more than a few years without voting. Then your electoral enrolment gets cancelled. It can only be reinstated by returning and living in Australia for at least six (or is it 3) months.
Yeah it is pretty versatile. I sometimes use it as a spaghetti sauce in a pinch.
Looks great! I really like the sauce from this recipe, and it is very simple to make.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Those in countries with universal healthcare, what's it like?English
2·3 months agoBut we do pay about 9% of our salaries into the health system, which is mandatory. Just another tax.
Monthly visit for me costs ¥1,420 (9 USD). When I had a wisdom tooth removed at a big hospital it cost ¥7,040 (45 USD).
Basically, we pay 30% of the actual cost. But if you reach a predetermined amount (about ¥90,000) in a month, then you don’t pay any more (or something like that, there is a system, but you have to apply at the time or retrospectively and get a refund)
Also, prices are less for kids (depends on prefecture). A week in hospital for a preschool child costs about ¥4,000. Doctor visits and medicine are often free until elementary school, where each may go up to about ¥500.
Oh, and ambulances are free.

Apple@lemmy.world•Show me your iOS/macOS/watchOS bugs (part 2)English
3·3 months agoiPhone 13, 26.4.1. Volume buttons and software controls stop working and a hard restart is required. Sometimes doesn’t happen. Sometimes happens multiple times a day.
Edit: Here is somebody else with the exact same bug as me, video included.
“Flaunt it” by TV Rock
The flag is not mounted to the lamp, but directly behind it. You cannot see the pole for the lamp.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can I avoid stress when I have a lot of things to do?English
2·4 months agoOne thing I try to do is to avoid procrastinating. If there is a task to do and I think to myself “I’ll do it later” I then ask myself “will it take more than five minutes”? If the answer is no, then I make myself do it.
I also use an app on my phone to keep a list of chores on a schedule. Having things lingering on the list is annoying, too. But the app allows me to skip or reschedule them. If you are on iOS and need some app like this I recommend PikaPika.

Lede not lead. I mean this in the nicest of ways.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•"US Person": is a red flag for financial institutions in EuropeEnglish
147·4 months agoFinancial institutions in Japan ask the same thing. It is because Americans have to pay tax to American even when they don’t live in America. It just means there is more paperwork apparently.
