sure, you do post a lot, and some of it is good. But the feedback from me for this experiment is that it sucks.

Sure, this is the place to put shit like this, I guess, but it just ends up looking like you forgot which textbox was the search engine.

Good evening sir/ma’am, my name is Christopher Crozier and I am the legal representative for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

This has real “My name is Diego Blanco, the Current President of Argentina” vibes

Well, I used “help” in this context to mean “benefit” , as in, no one fucking likes these random ass pictures of celebrities titled “who is famous guy”

Who Is @Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world ? You keep posting this random shit man, it doesn’t help anyone. It feels like you’re trying to keep to a quota

… there are no job postings yet

!fuckcars@lemmy.world :and I took that personally

I put it as something in .bash_aliases as

alias something='this command'

I’ve dealt with this kind of depression before. You need to balance between “productive” sources of pleasure and generically fun, easy , meaningless sources of pleasure.

“Productive” pleasure doesn’t mean you have to start a side hustle, just something more memorable and meaningful thank a quick hit of pleasure.

For me , the most minimal version was instead of playing randomly generated rougelikes, it was playing 3d games with a plot I had to pay attention to, or a film I had to pay attention to.

Obviously, the more involved and challenging the pleasurable activity is, the more you feel like you’re growing yourself as a person. But to get the ball rolling you can try that. Then you can work on developing a skill, like painting, or music or something else. Maybe you want to learn a sport.

For me I worked up from playing Fallout: New Vegas, to playing the guitar more, to programming personal projects.

You can look this up more/talk about your therapist about : Eudaimonia and hedonism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eudaimonia

you can just do the same thing in a more useful way by learning a more mainstream language with great documentation, but limiting yourself to only using the documentation.

TFW you leave the relationship not because of the cheating, but you got mogged so hard you feel you can’t measure up

great another one to add to my alias pile, thank you

EDIT : this does not fix my issues

🤔

So… this for Tumbleweed and lederhosen for leap?

I’ve posted about being the world’s shittiest polyglot multiple times. Here’s my secret :

• Learn turkish as a child
• Immersion learning in the UK from child to adult.
• German classes for five years as a child to teen. Due to lack of dedication (outside of singing Rammstein songs) , lose the entirety of my german capabilities, despite getting a good grade.
• Learning Spanish as an adult. Started with night school to build a foundation, then kept at it with media consumption and duolingo. Got A2 certification. Moved to Rio De La Plata and start immersion learning. Pandemic and having a child ruined my immersion learning, as did work from home, so, responsibilities are all at home, so I don’t get to leave the house for speech opportunities much.

My Spanish is OK. My Turkish struggles. English is my primary language. While my spanish isn’t as good as my english, I think “learning a language as an adult is impossible” is bullshit, but accents are difficult to get rid of (I still say Üstedes)

Swap Ubuntu and mint, and Suse needs to be visibly German.

I typed the long form of this before, but I bought a projector with no sound system, and just hooked up my existing small TV to the composite audio and the display to the projector

I think it’s reborn current time, not in the past

Hey look, it’s that guy from the bad website!

I’m not exactly a fan, I just know they exist and put them on randomly. They’re good.

hey, at least you caught it within a day.

EDIT : Next time make the cron job run when you’re finished deploying it.

I’m glad.

Religious people act like they do because they believe an invisible sky person has some big cosmic plan, and they are helping to fulfill that plan by being the generally shitty way they do.

No biases , overgeneralistions or anything similar to that here. Nope, just straight “Facts don’t care about your feelings^TM”
