I didn’t know this particular stereotype about Finland! Why is that?

They are everywhere, they take for themselves the majority of public space in urban areas and they are incredibly dangerous, noisy, expensive. Yet majority of people barely notice them
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?3·26 days agoAs @donjuanme@lemmy.world mentions, I swim with goggles, it’s much better. Morever since I was having issues in the pool with clorinated (I’m not sure it’s the correct term) water I also use a nose clip. But when swimming in the sea (Mediterranean sea, no ocean, usually) i don’t mind the water in the nose, as I told, I usually keep it out by slow expiration, so that air pressure keeps water out. But a good mask covering your nose would be a good solution too, as suggested by @donjuanme@lemmy.world
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?20·26 days agoTL;DR when you learn breathing in the right way, crawling is the best
I began swimming regularly 10 years ago or so. Nothing serious, just a couple of times a week, to try to keep my back in shape (spoiler: it wasn’t enough for that but it is really good for heart and lungs)
Well, initially I found that backstroke was better for me too, because I wasn’t able to breath regularly during crawl and I wasn’t comfortable having my head in the water all the time (and water in the nose… Not a good feeling)
In the long run I learnt to breath well, and to gently push air out from the nose while the head was down. So now I feel much better crawling than backstroking. In the sea even more, because while backstroking, a wave can hit my face and send water in the nose easily, and this doesn’t happen while crawling.
Then, to each their own, but this was my experience

I would suggest to read them in order.
One of the best hard SF series I read. Really enjoyed it

It’s a sign that PR really works well.
Some things got better, but the core issues are still the same as always
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itOPto Technology@lemmy.world•USB-PD is a de-facto low-power DC voltage standard, with USB-C being the universal plug. Hurray!English5·2 years agoNo, I only wrote the intro of this Lemmy thread. It’s the part that @rusticus@lemm.ee said was AI generated. At least that was my understanding.
I really hope that the hackaday article cannot be confused with ai generated garbage… Or maybe my taste is really bad!
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itOPto Technology@lemmy.world•USB-PD is a de-facto low-power DC voltage standard, with USB-C being the universal plug. Hurray!English15·2 years agoThank you. Also I could have written it better. Reading what I wrote again I wasn’t happy at all. It really sounded a bit fake…
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itOPto Technology@lemmy.world•USB-PD is a de-facto low-power DC voltage standard, with USB-C being the universal plug. Hurray!English211·2 years agoI honestly don’t know how to take this 🤔
lgsp@feddit.it@feddit.itOPto Technology@lemmy.world•USB-PD is a de-facto low-power DC voltage standard, with USB-C being the universal plug. Hurray!English6·2 years agoYes, you have 5 V. THen you have outomotive 12 V. But now you would have also automotive 48 V. USB-PD is one standard and can deal with different level of power requirements, from headsets up to laptops. And then you can use for other things as well, in a way that can be more practical than dealing with 110-220 V AC.
Is it a monstruosity? I don’t know honestly. I trust hackaday in that sense, and they usually praise it, without any hidden reason, I think.
Also, if you read the article, you can see that it is also a continuation of one from a few years back, before USB_PD was widespread. It touches also the points that you wrote. Give it a read:

So if there is no list of sf hardness, maybe we should write one 😉

Perfect representation, a classic, thanks
