'Disposables' isn't a perfect term, but essentially I refer to things such as underwear, toilet paper, tissues, and other such things that tend to have a lifespan of either one use, or one person.

I am fortunate enough to have been insulated by the possession of many things from youth, but as the years go by things begin wearing out or needing replacement, and eventually that safety net will fade, so I would like to ask from the zerowaste community, what is your approach to common things that are typically used to short lifecycles?

Welcome to the very first Monthly Fallout Modding Megathread! This one is going to be very general to kick this off, given the small community here. And so a question is left to you; what mods or modding projects would you like to promote, or even request? Any contribution is welcome, big or small!

Underwear is one of the things that I struggle to use second-hand, and I'm not sure if I intend to change that (lest some nowaste people teach me mystical ways and methods :P) But the fact is that I can only use what I've got currently for so long, and so I turn to you.

I am not looking for specific reccomendations exclusively, and the type of underwear (underpants, brasseries, undershirts) are all welcome for discussion! But I'm hoping to find advice which will help me find something that will last, and to a decent standard (i.e, don't use polyester socks, due to smell).

So please lend your advice for finding Bras, Briefs, Bobbysocks, and Bundershirts!

EDIT: Also advice on what materials are better suited to different climates is also well appreciated! (I tend to leave my posts personal detail agnostic so they can serve as resources for others :))

I find it my solemn duty to inform you all about a little blog on the internet, that being paeantosmac.wordpress.com

I personally read through it at least once a year, and it's an interesting read on an older game, I recommend trying it out!

Hi there, I came here to the BIFL Lemmy out of suspicion that the reddit posts are just unlabelled marketing, and I was wondering the possibility of sourcing goods that are more to a BIFL standard? In my area, second hand goods tend to be really quite poor in quality (reselling fast fashion) or otherwise not present, and I have not inherited anything that does last. So I would apprecite advice or reccomendations for finding goods at a BIFL standard. I was also wondering if maybe there would be anyone with good advice for finding sustainable, local textile production so that I may be able to tailor what I need without having to buy from the poor selection aforementioned, does anyone know of any of this?

TL:DR I am suspicious that a lot of what is claimed as 'BIFL' has been enshittified, and would like advice on being able to search for sustainable goods for a local area (not specified because I'm hoping for advice with searching, not exactly for specific reccs)

@fxomt@lemm.ee and I have recently created an official community Fallout space on Matrix! We are still early in set up, but if you're interested in helping us build a community here on the fediverse, please do join us!

Fallout's 10mm pistol has been there from the beginning, whether it be the classic Colt 6250, the iconic N99, or even the yet unseen N80 which is your favorite rendition? Discuss below!

Wonderful artwork by SRT!

It's also a mod for Fallout 4! (Obligatory visit us over on c/FalloutMods)

I was wondering, are there any decent Fallout-themed communities on matrix (or maybe something else?) I swear I remember seeing one in the public spaces search when I first joined up, but now there doesn't seem to be. If not, is this something that we should consider founding?
