Personally I also ran some distilled versions of DeepSeek locally, though I’d imagine that isn’t really possible for most people.

Meow meow :3

Better than nothing I guess. Obviously it’s a privacy nightmare. But therapy is hard to reach nowadays and I’ve noticed that many men are reluctant to make that step. It’d be preferable if they did, but if ChatGPT can at least give an outlet for the emotions then it might just save a few people. Seeing men demolish themselves because they’re too ashamed to seek help is something I’ve unfortunately seen quite often. Even though I’m aware of this I’ve still waited till it was way too late because I subconsciously didn’t want to give in to the “weakness”. I hate that men are conditioned this way, it costs lives.

“mem”, which is west-frisian for mum. Other than that I don’t really speak west-frisian, but words like mom/dad/grandma/grandpa all stayed in Frisian. Family also sometimes speaks Frisian to me, but unfortunately I forgot how to speak it at a young age and can only understand it.

I was equally confused initially, but then I looked at the clock in my house and realized that the number up top is the highest number, 12, and not 0. So the first number in the ordering is at the position of the 1 of a normal clock.

What lack of logic? The numbers on the clock are sorted based on the alphabetical order when they’re spelled out in English. Just like with a real clock, the top number is the highest, not the lowest. That seems quite logical to me

I’ve been using Linux with Nvidia for 10 years and it’s been a constant dumpster fire. The Nvidia driver constantly caused issues over these 10 years, especially during updates. Currently I’m having the issue that the entirety of Wayland, including all open programs, crash when I run out of VRAM because the Linux Nvidia drivers cannot fall back on RAM when running out of VRAM. It’s making my gaming experience very frustrating.

Hahaha. I love all the moth posts.

Call me an optimist, but I still hold the hope that we can one day do better as humanity than we do now. Humanity has become a “better” species throughout its existence overall. Even a hundred years ago we were much more horrible and brutal than we are now. The current trend is not great, with climate change and far-right grifters taking control. But I hold hope that in the end this is but a blip on the radar. Horrible for us now, but in the grand scheme of things not something that will end humanity. It might in the worst case set us back a few hundred years.

Yeah I have the same with Rollercoaster Tycoon classic. I spent money for it and really enjoyed it, but instead of patching that version for newer phones they just released a “new” version that’s compatible with newer phones. I should’ve expected this from Atari, but damn it’s so scummy

I tend to keep them around tbh. Sometimes I install random shit on them or use them for funny projects. I only miss one because it broke completely. The other 2 old phones are still here. I also don’t buy a new phone every year so maybe that helps

Imo it’s a good thing tho. Spreading our civilization across multiple planets is the only way to guarantee long long term success. Obviously we should also fix the climate change issue (and many others). But still, being spread across the solar system would give our species redundancy. An extinction event on earth like a large meteor strike would no longer be the end.

Yup same. And many like it. Good to know that this experience is shared lol. All the stalls will probably either be empty, locked, or have something fucked up in it.

Same here it’s so frustrating. It’s usually when I actually have to pee. Would be cool if I could just wake up to actually go to the bathroom instead of going through this while show. Luckily the brain is at least smart enough to not mix up the dream with reality

I wondered this for a long while, but I’ve realized that I’m in a pretty privileged position. Where I live (the Netherlands) the tap water is not only drinkable, it’s actually almost indistinguishable from mineral water. Certainly for me at least. I’m not much of a traveller, but when I was in Oostende in Belgium I remember the tap water was absolutely vile. It was (or at least tasted like) desalinated seawater. Instead of hydrating and refreshing it tasted stale and salty. If that was the only water I knew I probably would be drinking more refreshing stuff like ice tea or cola all day as well. When I got back to the Netherlands my first glass of tap water tasted like heaven.

The assumption that “the nazis” are responsible seeding these right-wing extremists like Trump is imo very naïve. These people have always existed, in every culture. Now that the time is “right” they’ve appeared again. The nazis were this group of people, but in Italy they were the fascists, and prior to WWII these kind of movements where growing everywhere. Economic hardship seems to drive people to the political extremes, and the far right preys on those people.

For generations since the second world war we’ve said “never forget”, and yet we’ve seemed to have forgotten. With almost no survivors left, every political grouping seems to have their own “memory” of WWII. And so the cycle of hate seems to have started another dark chapter.

I’m Dutch and I’be seem plenty of these over the years. I can’t remember where tho, probably university and maybe highschool. I feel like they’re (or were) quite common

Finnish? I had something called leipa juusto in Finland and it was a very interesting experience

I’m still looking for my childhood CDs/DVDs that somehow got lost in my parents’ binders and are now possibly lost to time. I love keeping them in the case so I can admire the album art and possibly the booklet before listening
