  • I don't get cold much either. If the temps are subzero, I just heat myself up in my bigass jacket and heavy clothes inside my home with the heater going a little before I leave, and I'll feel comfortable even in subzero temps for hours lol it's not bad at all.

  • I just did this last night! I went on a short little walk while listening to music. I was thinking about how many people would judge me for it, but then I said to myself "who cares what they think I love winter". I'm glad I am not alone! I just wear a heavy jacket and put on a pair of gloves. Didn't feel cold at all. I was surprised.

    However, subzero temps are still no joke. What I do in extreme temps is I put on all my heavy winter clothes and sit inside with it all on, as well as a heater going for a short period of time before I leave. When I start getting borderline hot is when I will start heading outside. I do this to be on the safe side, even though feeling hot in all those clothes inside sucks temporarily. It'll help keep you even more warm out there and will keep your blood flowing to your extremities too. Your jacket will be less efficient if you don't already have much warmth to trap under them to begin with, so be careful out there! It takes much longer to warm up even in the most biggest and best jacket if you only put it on after you were cold.

  • Same. I don't get cold when wearing the appropriate clothes. This might sound weird and maybe it's just me, but even when I do get cold, the goosebumps and tingles I get almost feel euphoric in a way. I like it. Not to the level of freezing to death obviously. I want winter to last forever. Why does the earth have to be heating up instead of cooling down with climate change... :(

  • I like the night. It's definitely got a certain vibe that I quite enjoy. Daytime can be cool too, but it does suck having the sun getting in your eyes sometimes. Especially if you live somewhere in higher elevation where the sun is more bright. The only thing that sucks about night for me is that all the shops are closed super early nowadays ever since covid :/

  • Can't relate, it's the exact opposite for me lol

  • Yesss I freaking love winter too. I can take walks during the polar vortex and be absolutely fine because of my clothing. I recommend ear muffs. Although, I don't even need ear muffs as I usually have my headset on for music, so it's basically the same thing lol

  • I still get panicked about summer, or even the thought of tolerating that hell of a season. Mainly it's because it has been a pain in the ASS to keep my house comfortably cold or to even have and maintain an air conditioner. It's expensive, and if the heat gets over a certain threshold, swamp coolers and air conditioners become ineffective at a certain point. It's legitimately scary. I don't want to boil alive or die of heat stroke. One power outage in the summertime could mean you're completely fucked. I wish more people treated summer and climate change as more of a threat to life.

  • Nah. I just enjoyed a walk in 10° weather with no worries at all. Didn't feel cold or shivery at all. Why? I simply wore the right clothing... People should be allowed to enjoy winter anyways. I hate summer and heat, but I'm not going to crap on the people who love it despite the fact you actually can't do anything practical to combat the heat when stepping outside on a 100F day. Aside from stripping naked, or being near an air conditioner, or I suppose, a swimming pool. Even those are limited options. Heat is stupidly easy to create and to come by as well. Coldness? Not so much.

  • What's holding you back right now?

  • Oh yes this is so true. Everyday I just wish I could be saved from this hell.

    I support violence against ICE. Lemmy is already Reddit 2.0. (It's a 2-for-1).

    Jump

  • Can you elaborate on Reddit 2.0? I can't tell if that's a good or a bad thing lol The last couple years that I've been Lemmy felt like the early days of Reddit. In others words, I love Lemmy.

  • Wine 11 runs Windows apps in Linux and macOS better than ever

    Jump

  • I can't speak for other programs, but for example, Photoshop runs under wine mostly. The issue is certain features like the content aware tool are locked behind the stupid Adobe Creative Cloud BS and is reported to have issues depending on which version you're using and what tools you care about. IIRC, it's mostly the newer AI tools that are affected so maybe linux users won't care as much, but its still a downside worth noting nonetheless.

    Most of the time when Adobe products are mentioned in this context, people will instead offer alternatives rather than telling you to run it under wine. It really depends on what programs professionals are using at their jobs though, and I imagine most will just use Windows on a separate work computer and not deal with the random issues with compatibility and troubleshooting. I think most wouldn't want to risk losing important work related projects either. If its something more simple like Microsoft Word then you could probably get away with using it on linux though.

    Bluesky just verified ICE

  • Isn't the whole point of the verification checkmark is to make sure nobody impersonate well known people/organizations? I know Twitter eventually turned it into a whole cash grab subscription and ruined the concept, but on most other platforms it isn't treated like some premium subscription and is just a means of knowing who is who.
