There are still some games that won’t work, mostly those with really invasive anti-cheat

Some music gear got stolen from my van parked in my driveway.

I called the cops the next day, they came over and took a report and told me nothing ever gets recovered.

Then I called around the music shops to report serial numbers and stuff. Within a day I got most of my equipment back, especially the expensive parts.

But the cop who took my report for some reason was tasked with doing the recovery from the second hand store, and he was really mad about it.

That was about 12 years ago, and since then I have come to the conclusion that I would only deploy police in conditions where I would be willing to deploy lethal force which is almost never, and ideally probably never.

Maybe. But if there were 10000 sent and 500 responses, that still isn’t enough information. You would need to know how many were even handled and perceived by the intended recipient.

But maybe you can work around this by canvasing in person rather than fire and forget.

Agpl bitches!

Doesn’t look like a comfortable chair, but I don’t see why not.

This is small potatoes but pretty often I ride my motorcycle to go to green spaces to go for a run. Which means people sometimes see me step off my bike and just start taking off my pants and stuff. (Spoiler: I’m wearing running gear underneath my protective gear.)

I think it’s because people want patterns to exist even where they don’t. But this one is extra sensitive. The declaration becomes even less interesting in non-base-ten systems. I’m not even sure why 225 would be intuitive to anybody. I guess that’s what makes it a shit post.

It’s alright, it’s art. You can’t expect it to reach everyone the same way.

Once a day, think of one simple thing that a depressed person would not do. Do that. For some examples:

• Take even the shortest walk around the neighborhood.
• Read just ten pages of any book.

Also, think of something that you do especially when depressed, and avoid doing it. For some examples:

• Don’t watch TV
• Don’t scroll on social media

Sometimes habits become compulsive, you can do a lot for yourself by adding even a small amount of friction to doing those things. For some examples:

• When I notice that I go through periods of poor sleep due to habitually reaching for my phone, I might remove the charger from my phone and put it in a living area and charge it there at night. I might prepare 8 hours of podcasts and connect my Bluetooth before bed so I can have something to take my mind off things in case wake up or cannot sleep.
• Simply logout of social media sites, so that I’m forced to take a deliberate action to log back in to start doom scrolling again.

For more proactive maintenance things I try to do, which are important to establish when I’m mentally in a good place, I might make a weekly list of happy chores, like make sure I talk to a family member, make sure I talk to a friend, make sure I actually see someone in person, or play a video game in a way that I’m making progress at it, or spend 10 minutes practicing an instrument.

You need to exploit your good times to establish patterns of good habits for your hard times.

This smells like ego projection. These are tools for jobs, they don’t have to compete.

I always figured that if there were a climate haven, when the time comes, it would become a warzone and just as bad as anywhere else.

Btw totally off topic I heard that Wisconsin really sucks, no reason to check it out at all.

Mark Robinson has a pretty nice truck!

That is so unpresidential!

I installed it on Ubuntu server on my raspberry pi 4 and it took a couple months to fall over and become useless.

I’ve been running their OS since then and it has been absolutely rock solid. It’s been 5 or 6 years now, all I do is add more devices occasionally and update it when it occurs to me.

If you have a life and you don’t absolutely love tuning your OS for special purposes in ways that are already solved problems, the hass os image is the way to go.

Haha maybe I’ll get around to it. You should probably feel nothing for my second grade self watching that movie, it didn’t have much of an impact on me other than thinking it’s funny I watched it.

Lol I honestly don’t remember anything at all from that movie, except boobs. I was in 2nd grade.

Share your love with me in my ass
