Beware – Sleeping Too Little Increases Your Risk of Diabetes ( scitechdaily.com )

This cohort study analyzing data from 247 867 adults in the UK Biobank found that individuals sleeping less than 6 hours daily had a notably higher risk of developing T2D compared with those with 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Despite the association between healthier diets and reduced T2D risk, the increased risk associated with...

My kids seem pretty intent on increasing my risk for diabetes, then.

This is the type of humor that I like on the internet.

Some family will be in town. So, probably spending some time with them. But also hoping to do some cleaning around the house.

Being an adult/parent is fun.

3 years or so for me. That seems to be when my current phone starts to slow a bit, and when the newer phones have a new feature or two worth paying money for.

The chemistry behind new and old book smells ( media.mstdn.social )

cross-posted from: https://mstdn.social/users/compoundchem/statuses/112053145362352366...

Infographic on the aroma of books. The smell of old books is produced by the gradual breakdown of cellulose and lignin in paper. Type of paper and age of the book affect the compounds produced, which include furfural, vanillin and benzaldehyde. The aroma of new books is equally variable, the compounds causing it coming from adhesives, inks, and chemicals used for paper treatment. Many of these chemicals are odorless themselves, but can react and contribute to the release of aroma chemicals.

I love this type of random, but thought provoking information.

I don’t think I’ve been “drunk” in at least 10 years or so. But, I tend to have one drink most days after work.

Busy weekend doing stuff with the kids, but hopefully creating some good “core” memories. Off to a week of work while I try to figure out a way to get my exercise schedule back on track.

Anything I can make in a crockpot. I can do a pretty mean pot roast.

Hi. I’m a casual Lemmy user, and currently serve as a mod for a few sports-based communities:

!cfb

!miamihurricanes

!jets

None of those require much work, thankfully.

Happy to help out over here, as well. This is one of my favorite Lemmy communities, and appreciate the discussion that takes place here.

Sounds good. And no hard feelings if you decide to go in another direction!

I just want to make sure I understand, you mean what can you call me? I’m happy to provide my real first name. That’s probably simplest.

If you mean how can you contact me, I respond quickly to messages and mentions. But can also give my email or join a preferred chat group.

And as for nationality, I’m based in the US, on the east coast.

That’s fair. People IRL call me Rob.

    Depending on the reason, maybe a heartfelt story on GoFundMe?

    Not necessarily “last man on earth.” But I do sometimes daydream about an event significant enough that I don’t have to work anymore. Like, a collapse of society as we know it type of thing.

    For sure. I’ll subscribe. Thanks!

    And yeah, really unsure what you might have done to get banned.

    I’m most of the way through Murtagh by Christopher Paolini. And then I think I’ll be starting The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

    I put on a little weight since my two kids were born. My goal is to eat a little better, get back into exercising regularly, and get back to my preferred weight.

    That was my immediate reaction, as well.

    The main feature i would like to see on Lemmy

    Im pretty satisfied with Lemmy, but one thing i wish you could do is browse instances. Like i wish there was a way i could almost emulate being on my programming.dev account and see all that instances communities while im logged into this account. Afaik theres no easy way to do that without visiting some aggregator website. It...

    Some of the Lemmy mobile clients allow anonymously browsing Instances.

    On iOS, I know Arctic and Thunder do. I’m sure others do as well, just not sure off the top of my head.

    Jurassic Park! Scientists dig up new species of Pterosaur ( america.cgtn.com )

    The discovery of a new species of pterosaurs, the airborne cousins of dinosaurs, is shedding fresh light on these ancient flying creatures. The finding is the result of the successful two-decade collaboration between Chinese and Brazilian scientists. Lucrecia Franco, in Rio de Janeiro, has the story.

    I’d walk to a lemonade stand to see if they had any grapes.

    I have the same issue. Seems like a bug.

    It’s hilarious that you make assumptions. I use the spacebar trick. I place the cursor in the middle of a word, and then the cursor bounces back to the beginning of the sentence or somewhere else entirely. I’ve never had an issue until iOS 17. Hence, seems like a bug.

    Edit: I should add, I could totally be wrong. And it still might be user error. I have no idea. But the cursor bouncing all around is a recent issue I’ve been encountering since my new phone and new iOS.
