I have a feather pillow from Ikea that is a few years old at this point and it still fluffs up just as good as the day I got it. I wash it once or twice a year during the warmer months in the washing machine on a gentle cycle with a wool detergent and let it dry outside in the sun while regularly fluffing it and turning it around so it dries evenly and thoroughly.
While I don’t like how feathers are harvested I also don’t like how pillows with polyester filling get lumpy after a while and need to be replaced or repurposed because they stop providing adequate neck support. I’m crafty and have used pillow fillings for sewing projects and stuff like that, but already one pillow is enough filling for lots of projects and I can’t craft enough to repurpose all so inevitably a lot would still end up in the dump.
All the while my parents still have some feather pillows from when I was a child that are still perfectly fluffy. So as log as I take good care of them, they will hopefully last me decades.

Reddit@lemmy.world•Hi guys, how many of you are here as an alternative to Reddit?
7·4 months agoI’m here since the API stuff on Reddit, haven’t posted a lot there, haven’t posted a lot here but at least I’m not supporting Reddit through my daily use anymore. Though when I really need some information that I can only find on Reddit I’m not gonna not use it.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the best way to ease getting back in shape after years of little to no exercise?
1·5 months agoThat’s a horrible idea, I’ve seen too many cases where this dog just ends up overweight bored and badly behaved. While this can work for some, a lot of people who have trouble getting into any kind of routine (be it fitness, eating habits or whatever) are not going to suddenly change. They maybe start out really motivated, but then they fall into old habits just this time an animal suffers the consequences with them.
I absolutely love Dungeon Meshi both openings get me in a cheerful mood. Ranking of Kings also has a beautiful story and the intro gets better the more you know about the story. Both are not particularly ‘epic’ though.
The intros of Chainsawman, Heavenly Delusion and Dandadan (both of them) are also some of my favorites. Mob Psycho 100 intros (I think all of them) are absolute bangers.
Here is my anime intro playlist

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Anyone else live somewhere that has had people joining in a WiFi naming joke?
13·5 months agoI have a boring Wifi name and everyone around too, but this reminds me that I was once sitting on the train and was watching a video with bluetooth headphones in and texting with my friends and some jerk constantly tried to connect to my phone via bluetooth. A pop up window constantly asked me if I wanted to connect to this other guy’s phone and since I was texting I came close to misclicking on ‘yes’ more than once. Then I renamed my phone to FuckOff and he got the message, since then all my phones are called FuckOff.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Heroes with super strength would be really out of shape
6·6 months agoBut that’s because their muscles work differently to human muscles. I’m not an expert but I’m pretty sure their body does not break down muscles that are not in use, they can only ever gain more (or at least they lose muscle mass much more slowly than humans)

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that hand sewing is a stupid cheap hobby to get into and reduces your impact on the environment
2·7 months agoDepends on the kind of gusset, there are easier techniques but they might mess up the wool pattern (like if you use one with stripes for example) and there are ones that are seamless, but a little more difficult.

World News@lemmy.world•Germany: 160,000 people protest against far-right party in BerlinEnglish
18·1 year agoThe protests in Berlin are not the only ones. According to rather conservative police estimates since beginning of this year around 870.000 people throughout Germany protested against the right shift/Afd and that would be around 1% of the whole population of the country.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Lucid dreaming is like being Neo in The Matrix
10·1 year agoAs a kid I used to lucid dream a lot. I would purposely imagine myself in a world or scenario that I wanted to dream of and when I fell asleep while having those thoughts I would lucid dream. It was fairly easy for me, but for some reason I can’t anymore. I rarely even remember my normal dreams.

For soldering, it’s soldering flux Literally translating the german word for it would be soldering fat.
