Worth every second

    Roderik,

    Any skills you can market? Things you can craft? As many others have said—there is no quick way to earn money.

    Gambling is an option, though you could lose it all. Not worth it in my opinion.

    If you want money and want lots of it—find and solve problems. Look at the world, identify problems, and find marketable solutions.

    Either way you’ll have to grind.

    Roderik,

    For me, it has been incredibly difficult to find a properly privacy oriented Linux distro that also has ease of use.

    First of all, most distros already offer adequate privacy. It’ll always beat Windows or MacOS—that’s for sure.

    Second, ease of use and privacy don’t go hand in hand. The more privacy you want the harder it gets to use. The reason I emphasised privacy is because it’s more anonymity at that point.

    What is it you want? If it’s privacy you’re after you can’t go wrong with most distros and using FOSS. If it’s anonimity be prepared to make a ton of sacrifices. Have fun putting your laptop in a Faraday bag, routing all your traffic through Tor, visiting eepsites, disconnecting your webcam and microphone, only wiring money with Monero, and so forth.

    My point is, there is no best of both worlds.

    Roderik,

    He eventually found the executable by Googling for it online and is now part of a botnet.

    Roderik,

    Windows is shitty—don’t get me wrong. But for all my coursework it’s pretty annoying to do on Linux. Especially Office, and yes I am well aware it’s a MS product and that Linux-support will likely never come. Though the limited online version of Office or LibreOffice don’t quite cut it for me. Besides, running it with Wine or in a VM is too much of a hassle.

    So “Switch to Linux!” is not really a solution for some. Let’s hope that’ll change in the future.

    With that said, fuck Microsoft! I use NixOS btw.

    Roderik,

    First and foremost, I want you to know I am proud of you for taking on this adventure.

    Building a house is no small feat, and yes, it will take time. Though it’s not like you’re sitting still—you’re proactive. Every day you are getting closer to your goal. Don’t give up and hang in there! We believe in you!

    Roderik,

    Hahahaha! Man, I found out about you on Lemmy and I must say you never disappoint. Your comics always crack me up!

    Roderik,

    I bought a Ender-3 V2 Neo on Black Friday for €168. Has been a great buy and I have learnt a lot tweaking it. Maybe there are better printers out there I am unaware of, but as a starter I’d highly recommend it.

    Roderik,

    fuck off

    Roderik,

    Not all AI is bad. In the healthcare sector it could improve decision-making, produce personalised treatment plans, and so forth.

    Obviously, the healthcare professionals will have final say, but it’s a good tool to have. AI will not replace them. Though it will streamline cumbersome processes.

    I am all for AI as long as it’s used in a non-dystopian manner.

    Roderik,

    Yes and no. If the VM has network access you can still royally fuck yourself. Also, it’s possibe your virtualisation software has a vulnerability—that way it may still infect your host machine.

    More often than not VMs may protect you, but it’s no guarantee.

    Roderik,

    Matter of fact, when you do get a raise you need to ask yourself if it’s truly a raise. Inflation decreases the purchasing power of your salary, so if you get a raise you might be getting what was your initial salary.

    Roderik,

    Thank you! I was thinking of buying a dynanometer. I’d have to go for an inexpensive one on Amazon. A professional dynanometer would cost me a rib cage.

    Roderik,

    So perhaps you’re pushing too hard

    May well be the case. The way I train my grip is by no means professional. I’ve got them sitting on my desk. That means every time I see them my brain goes: “Oh yeah! Grip training. Let’s do a couple reps”. Not having them in sight makes me forget about them.

    As you may realise, the problem with this approach is that I train them pretty much every day. No rest days. Only once I feel tremendously sore. Definitely a failure on my part. Thinking of putting them out of sight, but having an app on my phone remind me to use them every few days.

    Also your grip strength is quite strong.

    Compared to the average it is, I’d say. Still, closing the last gripper (112 kg according to the package) would be a huge confidence boost. Will it improve my life? Probably not, though it was never about that for me. It’s more consistency training to me. Stay consistent and see results. That will certainly help me in other areas of life.

    Roderik,

    Can’t really relate, because I am only 24yo. Rant incoming;

    Though I am sort of reluctant to try dating. In the past, I tried dating apps but they yielded no results. The women I matched with all ghosted me. Really did a number on my self-esteem. Who knows? Maybe I’ve got the face for radio?

    And in all honesty, it feels like I’ve got to abide by ridiculous standards. The likes of being buff and tall, owning a car and house, a 6-figure salary, etc. I am still studying and trying to get my bachelor degree. All of these requirements put a ton of pressure on me. Is every woman looking for that? Of course not—that’s not what I am implying. But from my personal experience it’s certainly starting to feel that way.

    Not surprised why redpill content is booming. They’re not right, but there is truth to be found in some of their statements. In the end, I do introspection to identify my flaws and improve on myself. Nevertheless, even by doing all of that it feels like it’s never enough.

    Roderik,

    I didn’t laugh either. Though I think the contradiction of “life fucking sucked back then” followed by “life was fucking awesome back then” was supposed to be funny.

    Roderik,

    I agree with you as well. Thought your comment was sane and reasonable. No clue why you were being downvoted to oblivion.

    And then the bloke who says he’d rather create a female character, because he prefers to stare at her arse for hours.

    Man, like, if one is that horny you’re better off climaxing to something else—if you catch my drift.

    Happy holidays bud!

    Roderik,

    It really was just a joke.

    All good. Hard to tell when it’s just text.

    It can still be more pleasing for us to look at a pretty girl (if that is what we prefer) without getting horny.

    You do you. Certainly not shaming. Still, I do find everything is being sexualised nowadays;

    Ads, thumbnails, films, music, video games—almost the entire internet. Ever tried scrolling through All on Lemmy or Reddit? Won’t take long for you to find erotica or something of the likes. YouTube and Twitch are even worse. Women creating content whilst partially showing and thousands of men throwing a bunch of money at them—or time for that matter (which gets them ad revenue). Not much different from OF if you ask me.

    The problem is you can’t escape it. And it’s affecting children as well. They see all of it and think it’s normal. Take a glance at TikTok and you’ll understand.

    In the end, I’d rather play a game for its story and gameplay instead of playing it for the “boobs and vags”. There is enough of that already.

    Roderik,

    Imagine paying to get tapped. Never been fond of all these smart home gadgets, although I do love the features it offers. I’d buy one in a heartbeat if it wouldn’t be so privacy intrusive.

    Roderik,

    Love this documentary! My professor made my class watch this and I must say that all of it just clicked.

    Roderik,

    That’s for the observant. Your glass is one dimensional.

    Roderik,

    I can’t believe people fell for this and downvoted you to oblivion lmao

    Either they’re playing along or they’re born in the shallow end of the gene pool.

    Roderik,

    More bloat.

    Roderik,

    I was only joking, though I guess Lemmys need the /s to understand.

    Don’t have anything against systemd—as goes with anything—use whatever suits your needs.
