I mean, depending on the situation, and this is much harder for neurodivergents, that’s not the worst advice.
Chances are you’re making a much bigger deal about the situation than it realistically is. The consequences for failing to meet expectations are probably not as bad as you’re imagining. Taking a step back to look at the situation holistically can sometimes break you out of the spiral

Then the answer becomes to get those things without paying someone to show you ads.
When the illegal choice becomes the objective best experience, you’re just a savvy consumer.

Establishing that good is ferrous or an electric field feels like it should be a heresy
- Comment on How do you beat post-work floppiness? 2 days ago:
This.
The first 10 minutes of any activity after work is by far the hardest, but once you clear that hurdle it’s easy to keep going

There are at least 4 Bad Dragon toys on that shelf. I’d defend them too. Those fuckers are expensive
- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 4 days ago:
Most people here are recommending controllers with the Xbox layout. They are correct in most cases.
However, if you’re a weirdo like me that mostly plays 2D games, I highly recommend getting a Sony DS5 instead as the Dpad is in a far more ergonomic position for that.
- Comment on what would you do with an old dell server? 4 days ago:
For real. I got my hands on a fully loaded PowerEdge 2900 around 2017 and it added almost $100 to my monthly power bill.

I cant fucking tell what is real and what isn’t anymore.
I’m tired, boss.

I assure you, the rare security issues for password managers are far preferable to managing compromises every couple weeks.

- Comment on China solves 'century-old problem' with new analog chip that is 1,000 times faster than high-end Nvidia GPUs 1 week ago:
This seems like promising technology, but the figures they are providing are almost certainly fiction.
This has all the hallmarks of a team of researchers looking to score an R&D budget.
- Comment on Babadook enjoys some wine 2 weeks ago:
To be fair, if you get invited to what is ostensibly a party on Halloween, then it’s expected that you should dress up unless it’s explicitly stated otherwise.
This dude was right and everyone else was wrong.

Having seen the entire run of the 80s show somewhat recently, Adam is at best a bad friend to Cringer and at worst downright abusive.
Like, Cringer has sapience. Full stop. He can talk and everything. Generally he just wants to stay home when Skeletor is up to something. Then Adam rolls by and transforms into He-man and then strips Cringers abnormal intelligence away, turning him into nothing more than a growling beast named Battle Cat that he can ride.

Gold is currently $126,228/ kilo, so assuming the price in the meme is correct its approximately 1:5.74

I’m just testing that the calculator works. It’s part of the scientific process, sweaty

The part you remembered is the important part, you’re only missing the extra flourish. Overall that’s a much better outcome than the inverse

You joke, but I would absolutely play that
- Comment on Oppa oppa 4 weeks ago:
No, it just means that you believe that the artist’s intentions are more important than your own interpretation of a given work. It’s the other side of a philosophical debate about the meaning of “art” as a whole.
- Comment on Oppa oppa 4 weeks ago:
Death of the author is a thing.
Whatever meaning you derive from a piece of art personally is just as valid as the intended meaning

- Comment on Microsoft is plugging more holes that let you use Windows 11 without an online account 5 weeks ago:
I would be surprised if they force the requirement on LTSC.
I could believe they force it into enterprise licensing, but LTSC’s whole deal is that it doesn’t change and only gets security patches. It’s made to be used in kiosks, CNC controllers and the like. Machines that are supposed perform one task reliably.
This is also the reason it’s the best version of Windows for the desktop, and why Microsoft makes it so challenging to acquire licences.
- Comment on Mina the Hollower has been delayed 5 weeks ago:
I would much rather the game be polished and good on release rather than put early. The demo was great so I trust the process.
Plus It’ll give me more time to finish Silksong
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 5 weeks ago:
God Hand is probably the most underrated game on the platform. Dont let the visuals or the crass humor turn you off. It’s made by Clover (the same devs behind Okami and Viewtiful Joe) and is mechanically deep to an absurd degree. Easily the best beat-em-up on the console.
- Comment on Portal and Portal 2 are 80% off 5 weeks ago:
Portal was one of the best puzzle games ever crafted. It’s pretty close to being a perfect game.
It’s clever, funny, and most importantly, short enough to not overstay its welcome.
The sequel is also very good, but it’s significantly longer and the writing and puzzle design suffer as a result. However, the addition of the multiplayer mode was a very good decision and is without a doubt better than the single player mode.
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 5 weeks ago:
No. I don’t think The Boys would be an accurate portrayal.
I think it would be much worse. Like apocalyptic.

Did you get the apple Busch because you thought it’d be a special treat or did you get it because it’s February and it’s was on sale for half price?
