Is this satire? SoaD is one of the most political bands I know?

What a lovely name for a lovely cat 🥰

What’s best is probably hosting your own git server (for hopefully obvious reasons).

Your comment says “Microsoft Studio Code” and “MS Code”, neither of which is a thing (as I tried to point out). The actual software you’re talking about is “(MS) Visual Studio” and “(MS) Visual Studio Code”, and that naming convention is pretty common for products (and other things) that are different but similar (think Photoshop and Photoshop Express, PSX and PS2, C and C++ etc.).

Are you talking about Visual Studio Community/Professional/Enterprise and Visual Studio Code? Because if so, I don’t really agree. Visual Studio is an IDE (VS Community is the free tier) whereas VS Code is a code editor (as the name implies).

I don’t, and I never said that. I was replying to your assertion that it isn’t stealing if it’s generated from scratch. Your assumption that AI (DL) generates from scratch is simply wrong.

Generated from scratch? How do you think AI generates images? They need to be trained on images to produce anything coherent, there is no “generated from scratch” with AI (well, DL like stable diffusion)

Not sure for iOS, but on Android you can put the stopwatch widget on your home screen if you use it a lot, makes it easier to reach. Not as easy as a dedicated stopwatch, but an option if you don’t want one but use the feature a lot.

Something that has happened to me is that I had set the network interface in qBit but the the interface that my VPN used had changed (disabled and enabled) and the interface in qBit didn’t actually exist anymore. Kind of a niche issue, but yeah.

Liszt.

Someone else here said to spend time reflecting, but I found this only made things (edit) worth worse for myself.

My secret weapon is distraction, it’s the only thing that truly helps when I’m in a, uh, dangerous (for me) mood. Distracting yourself with things you love doing helps distancing yourself from the situation and makes you realise there is more to life than your ex.

No amount of talking about my feelings or reflecting on the relationship has helped me as much as listening to music, drawing, baking, exploring new online communities etc.

You know how people will say if you start lying to yourself that you’re great and happy, you’ll eventually start believing it? It’s similar to that, I think, you remind yourself often enough that there are other things you love and that make life worth living.

So, yeah, time + filling your life to the brim with things and activities you love.

This is ridiculous, but at least Barbie is getting a physical release. I’m actually very willing to pay for media… if I can access it offline and am not dependent on the good will of some large corporation.

I told myself the same lie, week after week, until some day I realised it wasn’t a lie anymore.

I’m not sure if this is a joke or not, but in case it isn’t: Windows isn’t stable at all, third party drivers or not. I’ve never had a Windows PC that I would describe as stable, including the preconfigured laptops and towers I’ve had. They all bluescreen and crash or freeze more or less regularly (but stability isn’t what I care about when I run Windows).

Whatever the fuck my brain runs. It’s done a pretty okay job keeping me alive, and that’s worth something, right?
