Stahp, my games already perform better on linux with wine then they did on windows at this rate…

Actually please keep going !!!

Multi-lingual inner monologue is awesome though.

So much of how we think is dictated by the language we speak. Many things can only be said in some but not other languages.

Not to disagree on the topic but “if you can’t finnish it, don’t start it” is absolutely horrible advice when its about a creative art like writing.

If i am not wrong there is a whole writing style about just starting without knowing yourself where its going to end.

I highly dislike capitalism but i can see that once you have enough material to sell some of it, even if incomplete as a series. Many people would take the opportunity. I don’t know the authors economic background but for a starving artist with high potential that first book sales could be the push required to finish a series.

I blame capitalism, both for putting artists in this position and for the disrespect of big media towards their own content quality. Its always the money must flow, at every cost!

Yes but no. Cause and effect are reversed.

Kid thinks dad hates them for having to upond their life. They feel like a burden and that dad is just doing the job but supposedly has every reason to hate them.

But parents choose the burden of children, there is nothing wrong with being a burden to your parents.

This is undoubtedly sigma levels of love from dad. You clearly mean the world to him.

I am not going to say this is a perfect tactic though because for me someone micromanaging my life and forces me to be physically active would backfire so hard. But in theory all of those are textbook ways to deal with depression, healthy body and mind, structured lifestyle…

I actually thought that when I got sleepy or tired, I just needed to drink or eat something. Not realizing that it wouldn’t have mattered.

Wouldn’t it?

There are many biological and neurological reasons on why we can feel fatigue/tired. consuming definitely affects it in a meaningful way.

I would point at all the caffeinated stuff that exists but even a piece of fruit can grant you a short buff.

Eventually you will require sleep but science is still trying to understand why exactly that is.

I have tried snac before as a minimalist fediverse server but the blog style layout isn’t really for me.

I have also considered wether a personal Lemmy is a good idea or not.

Counter argument, every year is the year of the linux desktop because its a good meme to share our enthusiasm for the platform.

Also any year that someone switches their main desktop to linux is the year of the linux desktop for them personally.

It doesn’t have to mean anything beyond it, there is no failure condition or something to chase.

It is so undervalued for how amazing streaming your own music collection is.

To be more technical correct, all ideals go out of the window the moment a shareholder pushes a little.

Apple has been one of the wealthiest countries for years, they don’t need money, they can’t be doing this just for money.

They are doing it, to get more money yes, but only in order to make the angle of a line go up so they can sell a comfortable illusion to the people keeping them in charge of the available unimaginable mass of wealth already there.

As someone who loves science.

I am so glad i decided to pursue video game development as higher education rather then a scientific field.

Granted the illusions in games are gone, every game is now a dull collection of mechanics and The gap between what modern games are snd how i know they could be is depressingly vast.

But at least i can still enjoy hour long deep dives into quantum mechanics and golden ratio. Definitely a good tradeoff.

I would love to see a documentary about this at some point.

I feel like Disney is generally known to fit the “big evil corporation” stereotype, but surely this wasn’t always the case.

When did perception change? What where the first big fuckups?

For tv shows and movies:

Older content is rapidly disappearing/getting less accessible. Especially non english content. Shout out to do your part in legally archiving digital media from public libraries.

At the same time new media is pushed build on Existing mega franchises, everything is the same format with the same formula with no higher goal then the profit-margin.

online: is a different story because google owns it. They decide how youtube presents content to users, what do’s and don’ts get punished or get you recommended more.

Again no goal higher then the profit margin,1 ad for a 30 minute video is not as efficient as 1 every so many shorts. And because shorts are more random and your just consuming the flos its harder to tell the ads apart.

Because shorts are optimised on phone, google also rules how 50% of people use their phone it pushes more people to this more exploitative and less ad blockade device.

Good content still exists, its just a lot harder to find because promoting it is less profitable.

Their is a word for this kind of things falling apart to chase profit. Its enshitification.

Plot twist:

His wife is invited to the same party.

He did not tell her about the sweater beforehand.

Their kink is public sex.

They got found doing the dirty in the kitchen and THAT is why they are no longer invited to parties.

Cannot find the source for the pick but there is this where Bernie covers all the same points in different words:

I like to use dashes myself but the combination of overuse with other tells often does make me suspicious.

Which isn’t bad, even an intellectual can write things wrong, as ai can also write things right. Always read critically.

I didn’t think dashes where out of place here, but i did get a real ai vibe of the last paragraph. Is this something Bernie is really considering or is something to round up a generated list of scary scenarios. (Which are all existing valid concerns still)

Sorry, 1/3 based on the 8 hours of sleep 8 hours of work 8 hours of free time structure.

You forget the part where you spend *1/3 of your day (if not more) performing complex operations mostly for the sake of “number goes up” because that is important to something called “the economy”.

The part you describe is actually the “free time” part of the day.

Also autistic : Rules are a construct we ourself shape and create in order to archive the illusion of control over the raw anarchy that is the reality of free will and sovereign thought.

On the one (windows) machine i actively use powershell i click the pinned start menu icon.

Windows has fucked my flow before by co opting my shortcuts. So this is the most reliable way.

On linux terminal is a shortcut, app launcher is a shortcut and searching apps to launch actually works and doesn’t open my browser that operates under a different privacy contract then your os settings.

I despised windows search long before i switched i just didn’t know any better.
