This is what it feels like to grow old.
This is what it feels like to grow old.
That makes sense.
Would that also mean if a tree falls in the forest it always makes a sound because there’s always “someone” around to hear it? It sounds like we could say that the air or ground is “observing” the sound waves or impact made by the collision?
“Observe means observed by a conscious being”
Can something without consciousness make an observation?
If you and your friends have YouTube/Google accounts you’ll get recommendations based on what your friends watch and search for.
It’s not so bad being the worst player on the team. Just means you have a lot of room for improvement as long as you’re willing to learn. Honestly it’s one of my favorite situations to find myself in. “Oh I suck. How can I get better?”
People who like talking and listening I suppose. Then just click the mute button on someone’s name if they’re being abusive.
Yeah, I definitely get that. Even so, sometimes I think it’d be nice to talk to people for more clarity. Maybe voice chats would require a moderator to start them and stay there to facilitate the conversation?
Hot take: All criteria used to classify ideas and objects into distinct categories can eventually break down. The only reason to pursue the creation of classification systems is to facilitate communication. If we get to a point where we start throwing chairs at each other I’d argue were no longer willing to communicate, and so arguing about whether something is “this” or “that” is no longer a priority. The priority should become attending to the mental and emotional wellbeing of the individuals in the absence of labels.
They definitely abandoned the “do one thing well” philosophy.
I had a hard time getting drivers for an RTX 4070 setup on Fedora a couple months ago. Not that I’m everyone, but I’m relatively competent so I could see how it would be an experience many people have shared.
At some point God might say “I don’t know if I can make it better than this, but I’ll give it a try if you’ll help me out.”
I’m about to go through the Hyprland setup tutorial and I’m pumped af.
I’ve been thinking about this a bit more, and I realized that I talk to other people the way I talk to myself. This probably wouldn’t be a problem if I weren’t so critical of myself.
I think I need to not only put in the effort to reread the things I write when communicating with others, but also to just be kinder to myself in my internal monologue.
I spend too much time being frustrated inside my own head, and that makes it easy to use that same tone when I’m interacting with other people.
Thanks for sharing your advice. I think verbalizing my thoughts the way you suggested will be really helpful.
Honestly, yeah sometimes. It’s my emotional reflex to frustration that was programmed into me by my parents and I haven’t done enough cognitive behavioral therapy to undo it.
Absolutely true, but it’s also more difficult to ask a good question when you don’t know anything about what you’re asking.
People who know a lot about a topic can ask very good questions about that topic.
The problem I see with most questions people post online is that they make too many assumptions that their audience will will magically understand the context of their question.
Good questions require relevant context.
Determining relevancy requires expertise.
Expertise comes from experience.
No matter how many questions you ask and answers you get you’ll never “understand” something until you do it.
Instead of asking questions like “How do I do X?” people should be asking “I’m trying to accomplish X, I’ve tried Y, but I’m encountering Z. How could I resolve this?”
I guess my rule is that you should never ask someone a question without first trying to answer it yourself.
We need an open source electric car.
Exactly how old are you? Because I remember when my entire Tekken experience was locked behind a $0.25 to $0.50 microtransaction.
People willfully pay for things they enjoy. It’s a fundamental aspect of any economic system. I’m sorry you’re having such a hard time coming to grips with that.
Holy crap two fun back and forths leads to a book recommendation, today has been a great day. Thank you!
The curve could definitely be S shaped, but it’s hard to say.
I think that I would be really unhappy/bored in a world where I got to experience “everything” I wanted to do. In fact, just the idea of not having to make any trade offs/compromises is incredibly paralyzing to think about right now lol
If the clones don’t allow me to live forever, eventually dying would be the most interesting thing for me to do because it would be the only “new” thing left to experience in my lifetime.
That’s super cool, I’ve wanted to do something similar like this but never have had the opportunity.
