Not mine* but I do celebrate my partners birthday and they make me celebrate mine at least a little

I work in ems and I don’t currently go to therapy but I have previously and may again at some point but that’s less work related more personal issues

But trying therapy is never a bad idea if she is willing to try it I say go ahead although as others have said most of the time the work isn’t too bad and typically at least in ems we have basically group talks to discuss what happened and work through things in a pseudo therapy kind of setting

I use my real name for all my accounts that are for socials(not nsfw sites but everything else)

Primarily because that is actually the first place I used my chosen name so all my friends and such use this name but as far as what is different its not much other than the content probably getting more degen and the topics being different

I was about to suggest the same thing

I don’t enjoy having to do it to live but I really enjoy a large portion of my job and feel like I am actually helping people

For me it was finding something I love and using the job as training to help with it in situations I like

Then again I am working in ems so the vast majority of my time is spent sitting around doing whatever I want being on call to sprint out the door of the base and or start moving the truck quickly

But seriously if you find something you love and get an actual job that wont suck every last bit of enjoyment from it having a job isn’t the problem

Some places do different shifts you may wanna look into

Like the place I am at does the standard work days but you can also do like 4 12 hour shifts or at some bases a 24 hour shift 3 days one week than 2 the next with every other day off and as long as you have the pager set loud enough you can be sleeping a decent portion of the after dark period on either a 24 or a night shift 12

I am probably gonna go with either graphene or a Linux phone next because of google doing their stupid shit as always

I may try and get a cheap phone to put some alt android ROMs on and test or maybe a Linux os but some of my favorite apps are android exclusive so I am probably gonna stick with a modded android system Either lineage, /e or graphene

I use it for school shit because they don’t work with iceraven(my preferred mobile Firefox fork)

I use it but just barely because it is better than things like discord for mildly sensitive stuff

Dont really know because I have been on a single first date and it was with my at the time best friend who I am now engaged to so that isn’t exactly a standard situation

We watched a pirated movie in my bedroom for the first one and the second one was a multi mile hike On a mountain with no cell Service so neither would be a normal early in relationship activities

They aren’t bug free but that is the same as closed source and requiring open source would prevent malicious actors from doing as much while also letting anyone who wanted to pentest and granularly access the code have complete access and find as many if not more weaknesses than a dedicated corporate bug hunting team

I dont think cars should connect to the Internet if you don’t want them to so live commands shouldn’t be an issue but if you are talking about programming preset commands in having the apps be open source would fix that for the most part by adding that auditing layer

I still use mint for my daily driver office laptop because I works well right out of the box but you still have the level of software fuckary that let’s it be fun to mess with

You missed ridge wallet

That is fair but some emissions control software and such is run through the same computer, I agree on the tactile sensation but I wouldn’t want to tie critical car functions into a smartphone so you would still need a computer and if you are gonna put a computer in at least some functionality based on spare processing power makes sense

Either that or ban obfuscated hardware 9r software in vehicles and require the infotainment section to be modular so that people can change out pieces and upgrade hardware as they want

And do the same thing for all electronics

This is why there aren’t many women on there btw

Firstly I need to agree with the posts saying shattered pixel dungeon

Second if you haven’t seen anything on it look into https://www.luanti.org/en/

It is technically just a game engine but there are a bunch of games on it including one called minetest that is very similar to Minecraft

Other bonus is that the engine and thus all the games run on windows, android, Linux and I think Mac

Other fun options but they are technically ports and are technically maybe paid

1 there is software to add Mobile controls to old wolfenstein and doom games

2 you can get a gba emulator like lemudroid from f-droid and play any gba game you can get a ROM for

(Some of the ROMs can be found on archive.org for free if you look)

Get to work, I am not against hosting a federated server but I dont got much processing power to give

Mentally or on my main server

I just used a temp email service to make several proton accounts for different things but last time I tried they didn’t let me but that may have been some other issue

Tldr: used wrong wording would not deny prior or current issues with the usa if anything white people feeling it now is a good thing

I think my point may have been lost a little bit, I have had to explain what is going on to many people who won’t accept that the discrimination has been going on for a really long time to at least try and get them to do things now

Yes america has been treating everyone they can poorly for a really long time and I would never deny that

I realized that a bit before this current wave of shit because I realized that I am trans back in like 2020 ish maybe a bit before and found out exactly how discriminatory the area I live was even before we actively had Nazis and clansmen parading around regularly (we did have some but not as many as recently)

The united states does happen to be overstepping its bounds publically slightly more than usual given even the people who wouldn’t normally notice are noticing
