I want to run a nice and simple wine bar where wine enthusiasts can get an affordable glass of wine based on my data driven recommendations. I want the place to be a chill hang with music, comfy seats and sandwiches and stuff.
If I had the money I wouldn’t even need it to be profitable.
On my server I do most things under a non-root account.
On my Windows machines I really don’t want it to tell me what I can and cannot do. If I break it I’ll fix it.
I have a colleague who actually behaves in a way that I recognized right away. It is something I used to do a lot; talking like I was a burden on others, like the time people spent with me was time lost for them.
It takes finding out a root cause to stop this. Me, I’m a perfectionist. This manifests through me being a people pleaser: I hold myself to really high social standards and expect others to also set the bar high for me. I really don’t like it when people are disappointed by my actions, so that causes me to apologize more than necessary.
I’ve taken stock of my life the last six months and made a lot of progress on this front.
The best thing she can do to change her behavior is acknowledging she has an issue to begin with. As long is she is happy with her current behavior and you are not, the only thing you can do is explore why she feels the need to be like this and see if she can alter her behavior without distancing herself from who she is.
The Bad Lip Sync version of Gotye (Kicked Your Monkey And I Used Your Goat) kinda always comes to mind
Boost notifies me when someone responds to my comments. It might be able to push from certain communities.
Edit: I checked and it seems not
Ah okay, this was during the occupation of Crimea then. It’s not really possible to view that separate from the current situation but arguably, Trump was not in office during this Russian ‘military operation’.
Can someone fact check him about the Obama gave sheets, Trump gave Javelins? I’m not really clear on whether Trump was in office at all when the Javelins were handed to Ukraine.
Porkcharsui in the original pc version of Grand Theft Auto. If you named your character this, you had an overlay with coordinates so you could find your way easier, you’d get all the guns and the possibility to toggle a kind of sped up mode.
Oh and howdoiturnthison in Age of Empires 2 to get an AC Cobra with machine guns
The monkey, of whom I’m wondering if it can see my ears.
I am in the hopeful side. Maybe an ASI can quickly analyze our issues and interfere. ASI might spit out any plans to improve everyone’s life but if the people in power ignore all of the advice because they’ll no longer be in power, nothing will really change except now there’s an ASI using huge amounts of electricity.
Considering how everything’s going, I honestly think an ASI won’t make anything worse happen than the current state of affairs.
Until humanity unites there is no ‘we’ who can do anything. We are currently too busy polarising, fighting and reinforcing poverty. If AGI ever arrives, it’ll most likely be weaponised or used to make rich people richer.
If ASI runs out of control, we can only hope it’ll be a nice god and doesn’t immediately see humans are a disease and try to kill us off.
It’s, at this point, hubris to assume AGI/ASI wants anything to do with us.
Friend of Mine and Headlights by Charlie Cunningham
Shrinking is excellent
I used Boost for Reddit but well, we know how that went. I really loved Boost. The dev pivoted to Lemmy, so I did as well. So far the experience has been pretty solid.
I’ve found that Charlie Cunningham has some stuff that can really motivate or put stuff in perspective. Stuff like Pathways or Headlights can feel like a hand on the shoulder.
Really? This quintessential 80s businessman type used cocaine? I’m shocked.
