FUCK I knew it D: I read the instructions and tried a bazillion times D:

Chances to make a change in my miserable, depressive life. It only takes one opportunity to capture, one chance to seize and decide to do things differently, but alas, I’m not there yet. Thankfully, I have multiple - nay - an unlimited amount of chances ahead.

Materialistically speaking, off the top of my head, maybe my physical security keys (Yubico)? I have a backup key so that I don’t get locked out of my accounts in case I loose my main key, but I could manage without the backup. Jeesh, it’s hard to come up with something material that I have multiple of since I’m a minimalist and literally have like ONE plate and ONE spoon/fork/knife if you catch my drift.

First I was like: have they tried

Then I was like: never mind

“😘”

There was a case in Japan. An application was handed in to name a boy akuma, which means “devil”. That may sound funny or cute or whatever, but it really isn’t. The application was denied.

“bashism” made my day

I moaned louder than a procreating moose when I finally got it.

This only works because it’s a written/printed meme though, because we don’t say “ten” if were are not counting in base 10, we say “one zero base four”, which you further can specifify as 10₄ in written language.

• Scheduled messages - in case you realize you want to say something but not today
• Flashlight - let there be light
• Lockdown mode - in case you are at a rally and for some reason don’t want to turn off the phone
• Sensors off, developer quick setting - to turn off sensors in addition to airplane mode in order to save battery even more
• MAC address randomization - for privacy
• The ability to attach a USB or wireless keyboard to type longer texts

This is how I managed to find the best spot and orientation for my mobile router before I finally got fiber. It was an app I found on F-Droid. Forgot it’s name, though. Somebody was smart enough to find out that the modem inside smartphones has sensors and that we can pipe their readings.

Absolutely brilliant!

I also second (third?) this! And the possible variations are also fun to explore! Recently, I’m hooked on scones. 🤤

Dead serious question: I have only ever worked in the public sector (state level and local municipality) but often see or hear about these seemingly idiotic “interview questions” on television (and obviously memes).

Is this:

1. just a meme
2. just a joke
3. an actual phenomenon in the private sector

If 3, what on earth is its purpose and what could the interviewer possibly find out about the applicant by asking this?

I’m calm.

How is this even a question? You have the right to do everything and anything to yourself.

On another note: I really appreciate your level of insight! The pills are obviously solving a problem or two for you - you can sleep and and you don’t feel like dying, if I understood you correctly.

And now some unsolicited opinion. Feel free to disregard!

Every step one wants to take away from addiction must start there, if you ask me: respect that the substance, the ritual, the behavior or whatever one is addicted to is in fact solving a problem for you. We are not that intelligent on the primal level to sort things out “logically” when we are in a fight or flight situation. Only after having accepted and defined what problems the addiction has been solving should one go to the next step: is this method of problem solving sustainable? What does it give me vs. what does it cost me? Depending on where you are in your journey, one might accept certain costs - for instance physical and financial health - in order to gain certain things - for instance mental stability, sleep, a sense of happiness etc.

You first👏

What is that? :O

Because they kept shadowbanning me only because I use a VPN and they never ever gave any replies to my appeals. Even after having appealed at least 50 times.
