  • “Given the chance, gamers will optimize out the fun” This is the same about real life when statistics apply to everything. This is why I decided to ignore any rule that anyone else would self impose or to others. You have to realize that the others are not living your life, you are. Who cares if you arent the best, the brightest, the wisest. Do what makes you happy. Be silly, be cringe, be angry, be sad. What matters is that you live a good life by your own standards. The world will dissapear when your conciousness will fade away, so why let numbers, humans, or ideas stand in your way from living the life you would have lived as a cave man, an artist, a farmer or whatever?

    Comparaison is the thief of joy. So think less, and live more.

    You can reason yourself into despair, or irrationally rise above it. What do you choose?


  • I think realising when to back off doing what Im doing because im putting off another task. I feel like since I started taking breaks between activities to let my mind “reset” has helped me transition to more boring tasks.

    Im constantly watching films, listening to podcasts or music, so I have to take like a small 3-5 minutes of silence to unload what I was doing before loading in what I need to do.

    Also taking this time is not at all wasting it. Ive become mindfull about how much “waste” ive been “doing” and stopped keeping it against myself so its been way more liberating. When you do that, its easier to justify schedualing, and not keep cranking the productivity knob to the max to make up for time.

    Finally, I try to make things pretty, to get back to it with lesser resistance, like coding better looking functions, writing less hurriedly, cleaning my instruments for cooking etc with more minutia but taking my time with it.

    Also, I stopped trying to multitask stuff to the extreme. I refuse to listen to music while im reading, I refuse to watch a movie and study, watching a stream and gaming at the same time.

    This seems like obvious stuff, so the TLDR is take your time, don’t find ways to blame yourself but concentrate on how to move on. And take breaks ppl, we are not robots.




  • Dowloaded it, its not perfect but the hdr makes it worth it so im backing away from x11. Im getting slight fps drops that dont seem to relate to the steam fps counter. I heard it messes with mozilla firefox, but havent seen much evidence.

    Great update hope they catch the last things as well, i might be paranoid for the slight chopiness, since im playing cyberpunk and that game still has alot of problems even at the end of its lifecycle.










  • Yeah we should have ignore and reporting lists that is on an invite only basis, which then can be shared by users of said list. If you didnt get invited then you should be able to copy a users reported/ignored list to make the whole fediverse more palatable. Each bunch of list users can then cross reference each potential bad actors. Then each month each admin could implement a ban of thoses accounts and perhaps try to filter new incomers.
