Look under your chair… It’s an ad!!

I think that you can leave reddit and do other meaningful things as well. In fact it might even help you do so. And being a little dramatic might just be what some people need as a push to do it. I didn’t get through all of this either, but then I have already left there.

Weird, the link works for me. :/

Oh, I’ve certainly thought of alternate time-lines. Aspiring writer here. Trying to turn one of them into a novel (well, novel series lol), but you know, ADHD. So I could certainly talk at length about that.

Thanks. I’ve tried getting help. What few have accepted never seemed to have the time, or else they had too much trouble with the wiki paradigm? Idk. It’s been a struggle. Which is too bad since I tend to work better (i.e. more often) when others are involved.

Audhd here, so way too many interests to list (short list here: https://social.vivaldi.net/@Murdoc). But my biggest long-standing one is called Technocracy. Not how the word gets used most of the time today, but rather the proposed sustainable and post-scarcity economic system devised in the 1920s. Not only is it just interesting from being a novel and well-designed system, but it deals with so many important issues like poverty, environmentalism, sexism, racism, crime, and all in an objective, hard scientific way (i.e. not “political science”). All that science and progressivism (from 100 years ago too!) just delights my autistic brain no end. Here’s my attempt to make the topic more accessible to the modern audience: https://technate.org/tiki-index.php

In my case, finishing them.

That’s amusing, jenga on the moon.

I’m sure that he can perceive the depth that the shaft of that valve is drilling into his eye socket when you turn it. That should count for something.

It’s a topsy-turvy world.

…invade everyone’s privacy instead.

I came here to say this. I don’t really do networking so I don’t have much care for this issue, but the clarity of the explanation was enjoyable. Plus I learned a couple of little things too.

And this is how politicians manage to confuse people by conflating politics with economics, which are two different scales. You can be an economic leftist (say by supporting health care) without being an authoritarian. Same with the right.

Classic Scylla and Charybdis. Good luck on your odyssey.

The people that have problems with Windows and have to ask for help, shouldn’t be using Linux because it’ll confuse the poor souls even further.

My mother got so fed up with her windows problems that she asked me to put Linux on her computer. While she still had problems after that, she found them manageable and was happy with it ever since.

The people that know exactly how to configure and use Windows with zero problems have no need to use Linux

Nobody has zero problems with either os. The difference is whether you want to deal with problems that are just technical, or due to incompetence and profit motive.

That was amazing. Wow. I mean, I knew that google was bad but, damn.

I was surprised to learn recently that people are still making new screen savers for it.

…library… Alexandria…

But yeah, that is the central hub that everything goes thru

Does vpn help with this?

I’m using Vivaldi (Android), and it looks like I’m not getting the mobile site, but the desktop one. I can access all the content, but the pictures are way too big, and the white cloud in the background makes it impossible to read the text over it because it is white too. If I set Vivaldi to “desktop site” mode, I get the same thing, only without the text word-wrapped. I just want to know if this is malicious or just incompetent.

Note 10+ here and same, as soon as I can afford one of those linux phones, or at least a second-hand pixel.

I only found out about it just less than a year ago. :(
