There, there. Everything is going to be the same but you’ll feel a bit less anxious about it. It will help you focus and chose to act where you actually can make a difference.

Joking aside, this advice comes from epictetus Manual (also known as ‘enichridon’ or ‘handbook’). It’s very short, effective and (contrary to a lot of latter philosophers) very easy to read and understand. It helped me a lot fight my anxiety, you should be able to find it for free on the internets. Worth reading, in my opinion.

For those who, like me, don’t know who John Brown is:

Is it possible to dissociate the note from the instrument? This note from a violin clearly comes from a violin. The instrument shapes the sound, even though all instruments can produce that note. However, that note belongs to me, now. It’s in my head. I can attach it to sad or happy emotions, or close my eyes and imagine a landscape with it.

I think this art/artist debate misses half of the action. Once the note or the art has been produced by the artist, it belongs to the public, that vibes with it in the way they chose.

I have this problem when people use abreviations for game names. There are so many games that it’s impossible for me to understand. And good luck to find out which game it is if it’s a new one you never heard of…

We will then need people like you to bring awareness about alternatives we will be able to shift to. That’s probably how most of us ended up here

I disagree. Boycott works. These days, you vote with your money in a more efficient way than any election. You seem to say the problem is politic. You know politics won’t change things. So you’re just saying it’s not your problem anymore. But the problem still exists. The enshittification stays there.

He clearly says “You need to try, Linux”. He’s talking to someone named Linux. Someone that needs to try.
