The Eaton unit is a UPS that’s connected to the whole setup. It works really well, I can recommend it.

The home server under my desk. Very professional, as you can see.

For me it’s Mario 64.

I’m old enough to have tried it when it was new and my opinion back then was that the controls made it nearly unplayable. I tried it again a couple years ago and I still agree with my kid self.

I will not install your shitty app

Alright, I’ll get a zigbee dongle then.

Thanks for the replies.

Why are there virtually no FTM sex workers?

The default ringtone in LineageOS, but I use talk.wav from Quake (1996) for notifications, I love that sound

The ring, when I was 11. I was scared for years

As a developer, I use LLMs as sort of a search engine, I ask things like how to use a certain function, or how to fix a build error. I try to avoid asking for code because often the generated code doesn’t work or uses made up or deprecated functions.

As a teacher, I use it to generate data for exercises, they’re especially useful for populating databases and generating text files in a certain format that need to be parsed. I tried asking for ideas for new exercises but they always suck.

I eat too much then feel guilty about it, including stuff I shouldn’t eat that will make me sick.

I realized that people didn’t really give a shit about me and just used me for my skills. I was always there for them when they needed me, but when I asked them for anything they were always busy or had some excuse. I started using the same excuses on them and they all disappeared almost immediately.

I still help people of course: some close friends, some colleagues, my students, but I no longer show myself to be competent in certain things so I can avoid parasites.

Corleone, Sicily, for obvious reasons. Population around 10k.

The first one I got was some integrated cirrus logics chip that didn’t even have 3d acceleration. The first one I bought with my own money was a GeForce 7800GT in late 2005

I do have hobbies and enjoy them, but I tend to hide everything from them, even meaningless things.

What pisses me off mostly is how much I missed out on when I was younger for her stupid ideas, things like “you want a wife from your city”, “but she’s black!” (yes, I’m into black women), “he’s gay, if you go out with him everyone will think you’re gay”, “the trip is too long”, shit like that…

I’m a guy but I had a very similar experience with my mother basically making it an embarassment to talk or let alone date anyone. I missed out on a lot of things before I realized that what was going on wasn’t normal.

Talos Principle, without a doubt. That game feels like it was made for me, I love puzzles, computers and philosophy and the first time was such a blast.

Was your whole plan about having a family in your 20s? If not, then I don’t see how the lack of a significant other matters. What career plans do you have? What interests do you have? Also, keep in mind that validation should come from within, you shouldn’t let anyone (or their absence) define how you feel about yourself.
