thanks for the guide!

Are you referring to 'trauma-dumping' or when people share their negative experiences en masse? When I think therapy speak I think people being supportive, I'm probably misunderstanding, an example would help!

I appreciate the candid response (though I'm not from your server).

Here's hoping you don't anything annoying come your way.

Reaper DAW, for (attempting) making music

Localsend works well for me when kdeconnect has slip ups

hey im a noob with music stuff, why would this be preferable to soulseek?

I use FreeCad as an alternative to Solidworks. It has its own way of doing things... but it's more or less feature complete with respect to designing stuff.

That's fair, hurtful but fair. I've found that I tend to become frustrated or ashamed due to my lack of ability to help. Certainly completely blaming oneself isn't ideal, and yet the personal investment gets me all sentimental :/

I'll reach out and invite them and try to have talks in depth, there's only so much one can do given the circumstances and I operate in the grey area of 'not knowing where' to justify the extent of my involvement. This isn't well received by others, rightfully so, and though they'll admit I mean well how amenable is someone to someone else who they've known only for a bit to their excessive interest in themselves? I try to focus on providing bits of information as that is closer to being evidence-based rather than rhetoric to persuade them but it doesn't seem to work and I'm a bit clueless on how to continue. Working with orgs makes it much easier, I don't like the depersonalized approach and would like to find some way to incorporate it.

I have a dog-shaped teddy bear which I almost need to support my arms. It has such a novel shape as a pillow, there are so many uses compared to a rectangular/square cube or tube.

If you go to a library and study, you have some desk space in front of you, would you spread out your stuff (e.g. notes, textbook, laptop, supplementary books) to try and get it all out?

Likewise, does your work desk (say at home) have a bunch of stuff on it that you don't use moment-to-moment, but you keep them in close proximity because in the event that you do need them, the effort (or energy) expenditure of having it contribute to clutter is less than the amount it would take to get it or find it in the event you needed it?

*eats popcorn*

I feel like mom and dad are talking and I am sitting nodding along

True, yeah I think I saw that mentioned somewhere, thanks for the heads up!

It's beautiful, pls post an update and ping if you manage it!

Reading over it I also kinda don't know. I was rambling more or less.

I think I was trying to say I have issues connecting with people who have struggles of their own because they way I try to connect. When it's done personally by myself it doesn't work as well compared to doing the same through an organization. Like if you go to a food bank vs going to someone's house you know for food. I could drop off the food at the food bank and the person who is struggling could take it and not feel as ashamed because it is depersonalized (no one single face to attribute). Whereas coming to my home to get the food directly would be perhaps more shameful or difficult since there is someone (i.e. myself) who can direct focused judgement upon them.

I hope this didn't make it more confusing. I might cut my losses and try not to explain it more before I get even more confused.

Yeah. I want to say that everyone has enough in common to get along and be friends but that doesn't seem to be the case in practice :/

Ah ok yeah that gets pretty annoying. When people diagnose others I think that's problematic too. You only know a sliver of what they thought suitable to share, which isn't necessarily indicative of anything...

I see a Clinical Psychologist, PhD and 2 PostDoc's. We call our sessions therapy, wouldn't that be an ok way to refer to something as therapy?

Yeah mostly paranoid about getting doxxed and I think it would derail the the conversation. I tend to like to work abstractly to get novel solutions as well.

Could you comment on your own experience with this software and on-boarding users? The technical stuff isn't always so much of an issue as the interpersonal stuff. It seems like you have a good deal of knowledge!

A clever tea maker / mug all-in-one. I imported it from China, it's not expensive or anything, it does use Tritan for this steeping chamber thing where it only decants at like a 45° angle. I have some food containers I use for lunch which use the same plastic and they work well, don't get stained. Hope it doesn't have some new kind of cancer or medical issue associated with it, I'll update this post in ~15 years if that's the case.

Dispenser? You put like toothpaste from a tube and it's like those soap dispensers you push to get soap?

My wife taught that there was a limit to the number of tabs you could have on Safari on an iphone. I had no clue that was possible.

ah crud, don't do this to me! wilson!!

Great comment

wish it was on linux :(

that's fair, i'll definitely have to see what the changes to my workflow are

hmm.. HMM, could i ask do you prefer USB-C because of power delivery?

when I use a windows laptop, I don't really take over my Mac habits (e.g. CMD-OPT-ESC, or using 4 finger pinch or 3 finger swipe up or down), however when using a MacBook even when remoting in to a windows computer I automatically use what I am used to on my MacBook.

do you find that you have some frustration with the user experience and interfacing with asahi linux on your MacBook? i.e. you use the gestures lets say that you would use and they don't work, or rather, you could make it work but it's too much trouble.

if it's a painless kind of switch over, then I think I would be willing to learn or relearn or customize the desktop environment to my liking even if it took a bit of time. however if it's bug-laden and 'appears' to be too much like macOS on the onset, it would probably be more trouble than it's worth at the moment to use as a daily driver (dual booting in this case would make it even more confusing to demarcate for me).

so yeah that's a lot to ask you for what your thoughts & experiences were...

hmm, yeah dual boot sounds like a good idea, thanks for sharing your experience!

for a prospective dev (for contributing & who is learning...) what should one look into if they wanted to add support for another markup language? like typst! or uhh pandoc so whatever markup language one writes in it can be put in the appropriate format!

you recommend wyse? any negative experiences with it?

I liked the first Avatar blue people movie in 3D when I watched it.

Interesting, yeah this sounds like a good idea. No they don't care as long as it's easy to find other people competent enough in the event I'm disposed or something.

Do you have any experience you could share?

Could anyone comment on how these compare to usenets?

ah fair enough, thanks for the response!

Have you thought of frendica? I think it's kinda what you're looking for but it doesn't seem too popular. Have you used bumble for friends? I thought bumble was for dating, I'm not sure how that would work for friends.
