The “Shut the Fuck Up Gringo” whale.

I have a better one:

About all politics. No exceptions.

I’d have to relearn a bunch of shit.

Don’t feel up to it. I’m so used to my setup.

Even using SteamOS (“Arch but we modded it to be sorta kinda like an immutable distro but not really”) miffs me more than it should.

In conclusion, your experience here can be what you make of it; don’t be afraid to just block the parts that stress you out. You’re not “creating an echo chamber” as everyone likes to say (often in bad faith) – you’re just taking care of yourself.

We really, REALLY need to de-stigmatize blocking people. Bad-faith concern trolls have successfully convinced people that “choosing not to interact with someone” is akin to censorship and also bad for us because what do you MEAN you don’t want to be disrespected by a complete stranger? Are you creating an echo chamber by preferring to be with people who are nice to you?!?!?!?

Like. No. Fuck off. That’s not how it works in real life. We’re not friends. We’re not even co-workers for me to be stuck having to be polite to you even if you’re an asshole.

You’re a complete stranger and you’re saying rude shit at me (or even at other people with me bearing witness), at best I’ll walk away because I don’t need that shit, at worst I’ll call you a wanker and hit you in the face.

Darling you need to lay off the shrooms

“The whole universe is mostly knackered, babes” – 15th Doctor Who (2023)

That’s great for you but I fucked up my hearing by listening to Linking Park on maximum volume in the cheapest Chinese earbuds a third world teenager’s allowance could buy circa 2006.

… And getting stuff from YouTube takes 3% less effort.

Catbox (linked by the other commenter) seems to work for short little video snippets too.

But. Noted on the youtube thing.

That worked, thanks.

:D

I ask friends who are more intelligent than me

And if they don’t know I assume it is forbidden knowledge that would drive me mad to know

(I am only half joking)

Normal country

Normal things are done in it.

Step 1. Replace plasma for something lighter like xfce or wayfire with all the fancier effects disabled

Step 2. GZDoom mods.

Ah I wouldn’t know about THAT. I just download and convert epubs from the likes of z-library/libgen, and have done so since getting my first Kindle circa 2012

What for? Cuz loading pirated books is trivial?

Only if you want to synch reading progress between multiple devices.

And now you know why I just said “ok neolib”.

A cheap, flea-ridden (m)hotel, usually.

More generally “cheap housing inhabited by people who are down on their luck”

Doesn’t feel like I’m constantly being sold shit while I’m here

The corporate web feels like a shopping mall, the indie web feels like a flophouse.
