⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(i feel really stupid asking, but what the hell!) could i be of french descent?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
In that case, you could be from france, you could be the descendant of people who had emigrated away from france, or you could be related to people who have never had anything to do with friends but possess similar genetic markers to people who come from parts of France. Or, none of the above! That’s the fun part about genetics, it by itself is only a small piece of the puzzle.

On second look, also no.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How wil people react if Trump is right about Tariffs?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
He is not.

A tariff is a tax that increases the price of imported goods.

Tariffs are used to push people toward domestic alternatives to imported goods.

However, today, there are no domestic alternatives to most important goods.

So, all it’s doing is increasing the burden on the average person.

Companies are not going to invest in domestic production. They are going to spend that money lobbying to have tarriffs removed. Because guess what? Once tariffs go away, consumer prices are not going to go back to what they used to be. Instead, megacorps are going to pocket the difference as profit.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨am i insane?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
That does sound like potential bipolar disorder.

Either way, there are medications that should be able to help with your symptoms.

Good luck!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨am i insane?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
It’s not true that you can’t be given a diagnosis.

It’s good that you’ll be speaking to a psychiatrist, because those could be signs of certain disorders. For example, you could have bipolar disorder.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What exercises should i do at the gym to correct winged scapula and rounded shoulders?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
In addition to exercises, remember to focus on your posture when sitting, standing, and walking. Stronger muscles won’t help if your posture is still bad.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sadly, Athena toppled over on the moon. With a lunar eclipse coming shortly, why didn't they design in a secondary power source over solar?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Yes, and eggs have weight.

So they couldn’t use eggs as a power supply.

Therefore, the only alternative was to rely entirely on solar.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Questions about putting an lcd on my game boy color⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
There aren’t. I’ve read up on it, it seems to work really well. And the firmware is upgradable, so they will probably release updates occasionally.

FPGA systems aren’t like software emulators. The hardware itself emulates the original circuits, so the cartridges think they’re talking to original hardware.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Questions about putting an lcd on my game boy color⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Yes, that basically sums it up.

I haven’t handled one of those things myself, but they seem pretty excellent for total Game Boy replacements.

Depending on how much work you want to put in fixing up your old console, it might be worth considering one of those.

For example, you’ll want to replace all the OEM capacitors on your old motherboard. Even if the system works now, a modern screen will put a greater strain on the power circuit. So if the 30-year-old capacitors don’t get replaced, they could quickly start to fail.

Also, laminated screens need a full shell replacement.

So, including the capacitors, you’re talking about around $65 in parts.

If you’re comfortable working on small electronics, it makes sense to pay the $65. But if you’re not, the $99 becomes more appealing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Questions about putting an lcd on my game boy color⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Most kits ship with screens that are a multiple of the original Game Boy resolution. So the displays aren’t distorted.

Look up Funnyplaying. They make some of the best kits on the market, I’ve used several of them myself.

You have a table with five Nazis.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s an acceptable gender neutral replacement for “techbro”?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
By their nature, techbros are exclusionary toward women/other genders.

So, no gender-neutral term is necessary.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the number one reason why we do not have peace on earth like on other planets?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Well, for one thing, Earth has people, and as far as we know every other planet doesn’t.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it OK for a baby's head to be rolled all the way back on its neck?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
What you need to do is take a sharp knife, remove the head, then stitch it back on in place more snuggly.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I Just Reinstall F-Droid?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Go into Android app settings, find F-droid, and clear all data + cache. That will reset the F-droid config.

If it’s a config error, clearing app data should get it to start again, and it’ll still see the apps you have installed.

If that does NOT fix the problem, the problem is probably the app itself, and not the configuration. Manually download and install a previous version of F-droid, and turn off auto update.

I would just go back and fix the clocks. Every single one of them.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is it wrong/selfish to cut contact with my trump-supporting father?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Speaking as someone who did similar:

You will never be able to make him understand why you’re cutting off contact. You may not see that now. Spork knows, I didn’t for a few years. But it’s true, if you try to explain he will simply try to debate or he’ll push you off as immature.

To save your own sanity, all you can do is cut ties completely.

Other people here may offer differing advice. Some of them haven’t been through this situation, so they can’t know the torment you’re going through.

I can only speak from my experience.

Cutting them off was the best thing I did for my mental health. Cutting them off was not easy. I still think of them sometimes, of what might have been. But I’m comfortable with my decision, I’m confident I made the right one. Through plenty of evidence-based psychology, I now understand the reasons.

Getting back to your first question: sometimes, it’s good to be selfish for the right reasons. Maintaining your own health and well-being? That’s the right reason.

Your father’s desire to hurt people is far more selfish than making him discuss something. But if you make him discuss it, he will only act threatened and refuse to see your point of view.

You will only begin to heal once you cut him out of your life. I don’t say that lightly.

Again, if someone hasn’t lived through a situation like this and had to make the same hard decisions, they can’t understand. So don’t be afraid of the naysayers.
