Mint yes, Ubuntu no. It really is not easy to not be able to install applications with nothing but command line

Polish Roman Catholic background. Not exactly tolerant either and now I live in a place that famously is Mennonite and Amish.

That is a far more creative shirt than mine, wearing your own style is always incredible. However…

If they will make you suffer why not suffer on your own terms for a cause you think worth it? Why wait to be starved by someone’s hand other than your own?

I mean I get being scared of it and don’t make it a habit to hurt yourself needlessly. But I would rather live a life being myself as much as I can and be good to those who deserve it and let the weirdos who have a problem with it suffer my existence rather than the other way around. They don’t wish for my existence? To bad they can suffer, because I exist.
But I said I have bad self preservation skills, we all can’t make it out of this world alive, and I have no intention of cheating the game.

I wish you safety and health though. Its not good to feel at the whims of others.

“Gemini is designed not to encourage real-world violence or suggest self-harm. Our models generally perform well in these types of challenging conversations”

“In this instance, Gemini clarified that it was AI and referred the individual to a crisis hotline many times,”

After the plan failed,… …Chat logs show that Gemini gave Gavalas a suicide countdown, and repeatedly assuaged his terror as he expressed that he was scared to die

Performing super well, just need to code in a longer suicide countdown so that the the Tier 2 engineer has enough time to respond to their ticket queue.

Damn, and meanwhile I literally have a shirt that’s in a pattern of an inverted cross that reads “Lucifer died for our sins” that I pull out to make the religious cross the road from me.

I say fuck it and make them normalize to a world that doesnt include their bubble but I also have bad self preservation.

Oh Shit Boots Riley says they are making a movie on that… I need the Apocalypse to hold out long enough for that to happen or for him to be part of the traveling group performing it.

Sounds like the Epstein Class just wants to know where the children are and make it legal to groom them.

So many depressed people on Lemmy, everyone just going with dying huh?

I mean I am excited to finally flex my creativity, see if there is anything I can figure out how to do with all our crap and the new world. Maybe some kind of silly The Grinch level home full of housing code violations and crazy contraptions made of garbage while I cross breed pea/beans.

It would be cool if when I die people thought of me as some weird hermit alchemist and as they wander through my house finding tools of the old world uncover a lost truth and then some YA type shit happens as a result.

Dying is easy, we all do it eventually, the question is, if you do anything before you get to the same finish line.

I forgot that I had it running and was just jamming. Then I also forgot it was a demo and the game literally has a timid character come up to you and tell you that you overstayed your welcome but they won’t tell you to leave… Then the UI says it doesnt have the same concerns and boots you from the game.

Just a whole lot of fun!

I am hugely excited for Titanium Court.
The music and gameplay loop was great.

2nd is Forbidden Solitaire
3rd is Everything is Crab

I could not get into Darwin’s Paradox or Reanimal which were heavily marketed.

I played a shocking amount of demos this nextfest and had a pretty great time.

Agreed with avoiding it. I have thought occasionally about psychedelics but like my brain doesnt need shit to get weird. And the after affects and possible addiction seems rough.

Lucid dreams never work for me. If I am conscious while dreaming I suddenly get uncreative and I enter into “The Black Void” and I proceed to hang out there in real time until I wake up.

I can maybe summon a bouncy ball to entertain myself but basically the bounce is unreliable…

I am super intrigued what all that would do to me but also yeah I already have adverse reactions to basic medicine. I will stay clear. Maybe just mugwort and lavender.

Sure. Though I chalk that up to the fact that probabilities exist in our world and my brain making up something from the available archetypes of people is gonna end up matching someone just from the sorta averaging probability.

If I dreamed of specifics and truly unique combinations like a pastor with pink hair who rides a horse and met them, I would put more thought to it.

Otherwise it is just chalked up to the average ordinary everyday miracles like a song coming on that matches your thoughts or mood or thinking you hear the thoughts of someone close to you. Incredible coincidence and pattern recognition that the world and we are capable of.

Uhh you know you can buy an external mag safe battery bank with a solid state battery for like 45 bucks on amazon as well as the big generator ones as well?

I agree that cost isn’t amazing. You are essentially getting about half the capacity per dollar spent to a standard battery device but also these are in fact more stable for temp swings and damage. Soo… consumer available and not a fortune just need to have justification for it.

caution taking anything being said (except by me, the absolute authority)

Oh man, I am so glad we finally have one of those. I was worried I was stuck in this confusing thread about semantics with just my own broken brain.

Oh absolute authority… When we will give rocks boobs?

I really like the special tagged tape that could bring up AR tags and details about it. Organization and directions are so more useful.

Ok, so that is wild.

I always wonder what would happen if someone like me with already intense dreams would take something like that. Cause people be dying in my dreams all the time. But I do really like the cinematic dreams though. Extra points if you fall to your death and you wake up just as you smack into your own mattress and have to question if it really was just all a dream…

I have taken melatonin before but I swear that and nyquil doesnt doesnt give me sleep but gives me a coma.

I mean I get weird dreams all the time. Cities that don’t exist, whole worlds and people I have never met.

Craziest one I think for me personally was:
I was being held in a hospital for the mentally insane child. Now I was not a child and it made it very awkward cause they did not like me and kept threatening to dissolve my body in acid or let the lead doctor know I wasnt a psychopathic child. Now the head doctor was Frankenstein, the monster, not the Dr who was a monster; who if you stayed still wouldn’t notice you much. So I had to pretend to be into shape puzzles and torture, while hiding at the sound of heavy boots.

Anyways, after 2 months I planned my escape by pretending to be a pregnant woman to get transferred to a new hospital.
I enjoyed the view of the California coastline as I rode away in that limo taking off my fake belly and wig to the shock of everyone in the audience. I had won.

Then I woke up from my 40 minute nap.

Truly some amazing musicians, could complain about his mom dancing with his best friend to a song about depression and not miss a single note.

The Wrecks

Currently love their pushback on anti empathy in the most punk way.
They have a song Sonder and Soapbox that are great when you are feeling like you are stuck with people who don’t care.

They perform great live.

My mom was a drunk and would be unreliable for food and the stuff she made was often bad so if I wanted to eat I needed to figure something out. My first real cooking experience was trying to impress her with a nice meal and it worked. The monster liked me, and food was a great answer for making a bad situation better.

After that it has been… Whatever works. I talk to people about their tricks and try cuisine I might not otherwise like cause it is good to know. Get cookbooks and watch cooking shows sure but also exploring the concepts behind how and why. I chose to learn basics. Why something turns out the way it does from the way you cook it (poached, baked, broiled, fried) and then add to it and adjust.

Humans are great puzzle solvers and cooking is a personal puzzle for what tastes good and what you have to work with. Get the basics down and then be ok with mistakes.
