YSK that there are a range of medications that can prevent alcoholics and other addicts from relapsing
YSK that there are a range of medications that can prevent alcoholics and other addicts from relapsing - Lemmy.world
If you or one of your loved ones is struggling with this its worth knowing and worth asking your doctor about. Article mainly discusses generic anticonvulsants that have proven beneficial, but there are others such as Naltrexone that can also be helpful.

Will need to go look at the actual research on anything that is potentially controversial or contentious in future, as Wikipedia can no longer be trusted as a neutral and unbiased source, thats a pity.

>As the largest organ in the body, the skin can have a profound impact. The chemicals released by diseased and dysfunctional skin soon enter the bloodstream, where they wash around, damaging other tissues. Amid the ensuing systemic inflammation, chemicals from the skin can reach and harm organs that seem entirely unrelated, including your heart and brain. Well thats it, I’m definitely staying out of the sun now!

Anybody got the UVNZ app on their phone?
Anybody got the UVNZ app on their phone? - Lemmy.world
Its a great little app for those that are easily sunburnt, has been a godsend in the past. But when I try to open it currently it throws an error message “Data missing or incomplete” I know it gets its UV data from NIWA, but when I checked on their site [https://niwa.co.nz/our-services/online-services/uv-ozone] there is nothing to say it has been discontinued. Cant find anything else about it online. Anyone else use this app for Android (or IoS)? Is it still working for you?
Is there a way to hold screen open while a streaming app is in use?
Is there a way to hold screen open while a streaming app is in use? - Lemmy.world
Or hold it open while Bluetooth active and in use? Would be extremely useful to have my screen stay open while phone is playing music in the car. Phone is a Samsung A3 running Android 12, although I have had the same issue on other devices running different versions of Android so not sure its relevant.
Funding the Fediverse - use an awards feature to fund instances
Funding the Fediverse - use an awards feature to fund instances - Lemmy.world
Saw this proposal originally posted on Github [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3779] and thought it was worth posting here and expanding on This is an excellent idea, I liked awarding posts on reddit on my old username, probably spent quite a bit with reddit until they permabanned me for god alone knows what reason. This plus Premium memberships would give the admins of the bigger servers such as lemmy.world a reliable income stream that would enable them to maintain and improve infrastructure. The money would go to whichever server a user that buys the awards or Premium membership happens to reside on (for me it’d be lemmy.world) Its a simple reality that running a server with thousands of users on it costs money and time, and it has to come from somewhere more reliable and lucrative than donations It does raise an issue in that a payment processor would be required, and a business would have to be created for that as well. Perhaps several instances could co-operate and share the payment processor and create between them an organisation or business for that purpose, there would need be some means of tagging each payment so that it can be directed to the correct instance I want the fediverse to survive and thrive, and for that it needs some income beyond donations to support instance server costs, bandwidth and the time and effort and resources expended on battling DDOS attacks, bots etc etc
Post I made shows 6 replies... but I can only see 4?
Post I made shows 6 replies... but I can only see 4? - Lemmy.world
Made a post in a fairly niche community a few days back, it got 6 replies, only 4 of which I can actually see. Is this some sort of federation issue or something else? Its been showing 6 replies for a couple of days at least now, so if that was it I would have thought the last 2 would have come through by now Post in question is here; https://lemmy.world/post/2264735 [https://lemmy.world/post/2264735] Maybe if someone on another instance or on kbin can take a look for me and see if they can see all 6 I’d appreciate that thanks
People on Lemmy/ kbin not called Karen - have you ever asked to speak to the manager - and actually had a good reason for doing so?

I have done this exactly once in my lifetime, two years ago. Maybe in another few decades, I’ll do it again, if I live long enough. And yes, even if your name is Karen but you had a good reason to ask to speak to the manager, you can also reply
