It's a fire prevention thing to keep doors closed, if a fire breaks out when you're asleep it really can make the difference in you surviving it. But, the cats aren't going to let me do that, so we all go down together.
But that is why here in Belgium it is mandated that doors have a minimum gap for ventilation while also keeping the door closed and also outside ventilation
Fire likes oxygen. As it turns out, so do lungs.
That's what the smoke detectors are for. They are mandatory where I live.
Is there data to support this? I imagine if a fire breaks out in an apartment and I don't wake up in time, I'm fucked anyway. Hopefully smoke detectors in all rooms will do their job.
Yes
I mean, instead of asking for information you want, you could just go look for it. Maybe clicking this link and even reading a touch won't be too difficult? Not trying to be an ass, but it took seconds. https://www.bhg.com/sleep-with-bedroom-door-shut-11888160
Bro literally asks for "data to support this"
So I guess they wanted someone to say
And thats it
Because usually people looking for DATA would use the internet search function, NOT expect verbal responses which DO NOT constitute data
I dont understand all the idiots downvoting you because I wouldve done the same thing
You want data, search the web
You want anectdotes, talk on a forum
Its annoying when people expect to be spoonfed credible data on a forum rather than taking 5 seconds to find it themselves (and sharing it, imagine that, fucking utopic) instead of someone else spending double that time finding it and writing a comment with sources in reply (thats called spoonfeeding)
But hey here comes the airplane I guess
It blows my mind that people will take safety advice from a random comment, question it, and expect another random comment to clarify for them, especially in a platform as small as Lemmy. It's so alien a thought process to me that I can't understand it, but it makes it easier to see how misinformation spreads so easily.
"Hey, you seem to know something about this, is there anything specific I can look for to learn more instead of starting from zero?"
I searched "fire safety bedroom door shut" so I don't think they really needed any help.
They also had thoughts about it that they wanted feedback on.
I don't see a request for feedback. I see someone asking for data from a commenter, saying they were probably fucked either way, and hoping smoke detectors would help. The only request was for supporting data, and why would you trust "data" from a random commenter?
The second and third sentence are a clear request for feedback.
They're statements.
When people say, "man, the air in this room is bad", do you just go "yep"? Or do you open a window?
Uhhhhh, that is highly contextual. Am I on an airplane? Do the windows open? Is it my house?
Why are you on an online forum if communicating with other people is such a burden for you? lol
I hate when people say Google it bro we're here to interact with each other and pass knowledge
I hate when people ask others to look it up for them.
Are you asking for anecdotes or information? Because it would've taken less time for you to search than for me to search, write a comment, and post a link. Why are you on the internet if you want other people to read for you? Good on you to attack me for your laziness.
I’m with you on this one. The way they rudely asked that question, then forced you to look up the answer and post the link. It should be illegal.
And then there's your contribution.
Agreed. Jail for everyone, myself included.
I think they were looking for a conversation. If saving time is the goal, we wouldn't be here in the first place.
Ain't nobody saving time here.
They weren't asking you to search, they were asking if ~~you~~ the person they responded to knew anything off the top of ~~your~~ their head.
I also explained my viewpoint and expected to hear what they think, i.e. tried to have a normal conversation. But we're on the internet, so yeah...
Bro, no one was attacking here until you rolled up and attacked. You weren't even the person they responded to. You could've said and done nothing and no one would have ever known or cared. Instead, you decided to cause a scene.
Quite the scene too, expecting someone to read a little in this day and age instead of skim comments online and take it as fact.
Whoosh
