The simplest way is to be a Reddit mod.

Yesterday, I made a choice that was very tough for me to make. So three years ago, I had a best friend, and we both liked each other. Things got hard because my feelings went too far, I became emotionally unstable and turned into an attention seeker. So because of that, I then ended the friendship.

Recently, she added me back. I thought we could be friends again because I felt like I improved my mental state in the last two years and won’t turn into an attention seeker again. Well, a week later, I was the same as I was three years ago.

It was ruining my mental health severely. I couldn’t focus on anything. But I still wasn’t ready to give up on the friendship because she was a very nice friend, and I still liked her for some reason. So I refused to give up. But things got worse real quick, and then I decided to write a long message to her explaining why I can’t continue this friendship and then I blocked her everywhere.

At the cost of ending all probabilities of a future with her, I feel much better now.

Gotta do something about this attention-seeking thing, though.

I also leave out little syntax errors and only only focus on the rough idea during my train of thoughts. And the variables, aren’t really supposed to be implied as private or unused – I do eventually meaningfully use them. If I have to prefix all my variables with a underscore to avoid the LSP, I might instead just disable the LSP. When I eventually turn the LSP back on, it tells me the actually unused variables and imports that I can now get rid of.

Because of the LSP, I used to write maybe three hundred lines of code per hour, but now I probably average at least five hundred or more.

I turn off LSPs during my train of thoughts. I don’t want all red and yellow underline bullshit to disrupt my thoughts. Like, calm the fuck down. I WILL write the correct code eventually; just give me some fucking time.

Well, I use Neovim, so turning off the LSPs or restarting them is sufficiently simple.

When I work on a new project, or on a new feature, I temporarily turn off the LSP, and rely on the compiler to figure out where the code errors. Plain white text gives me the freedom to write whatever the fuck I want without any disruption. Of course, I eventually turn on the LSP again to fix the little issues.

Whatever I search on Pinterest, Google, Bing, the images there nowadays are mostly just AI generated. I am so used to them by now, I just don’t care anymore. Whatever makes me feel like it’s cool, I praise it. Recently hyper realistic AI generated videos have been popping up, and once there’s enough of datasets of free porn videos, which is most definitely coming out in a few years, the Porn industry is going to be filled with AI generated porn videos as well.

I think AI generated porn videos are going to be very realistic because there’s so much free porn.

They said competition, not alternatives. As things are right now, and knowing people, not just trying to make a technical point, Firefox is the only competition.

not a fan of that font, but cool setup

I agree fully. I basically never download music anymore, because I can get all the music I can think of on Spotify for a few bucks a month.

I recently started music pirating because I listen to a lot of genres and I want to shuffle them. If I use Spotify, I am limited to their shitty shuffler, but if I download my music offline, I can shuffle however I want. My favorite algorithm to shuffle my huge bunch of music is to shuffle them by genre. Now I get to listen to interesting music with full control over the algorithm used.

Also, there are frequent power cuts in my area, so an offline library always proves useful. I also visit places where internet connections are not available.

All my reddit links open in the old version because I set it as the default in the preferences of new Reddit. Maybe you could do the same.

Syncthing and Spotdl. Syncthing can sync folders over a network. Spotdl can download content from a playlist; it is multi-threaded and skips already existing or duplicate songs. It took me 20 minutes to automate everything. Syncthing and Spotdl start on startup and do their thing every 10 minutes.

You end up with a permanent small water mark on the bottom right-hand side of the screen as a reminder to activate. Currently, you can keep it like this indefinitely.

There are tricks to make the watermark invisible without activating Windows. It works just fine if Windows 10 is not your primary operating system and you don’t plan to personalize your operating system after fiddling around a bit just after you get it installed. You can personalize it for about a couple months before the activating logo shows up; at least that’s how I always experienced it.

Cinny and Hydrogen are good

They force you to enter your phone number if your IP address is fishy to them, or if your email provider is not popular.

I am so tired of Linux users who scream “I use X btw” everywhere… Like maybe it was cool some decade ago, but now it’s just annoying seeing it wherever I go. I hope Photon will eventually feature content filtering by keywords.
