Yeah, that kind of stuff exactly. Good to know it happens to others.

I wish there was a foss option that was so good for, for lack of a better description, mindless learning

Thanks! The lack of a tactile board is a lot of the problem though

I’d really love a modern smartphone with a t9 keypad. I used to be able to type almost as fast on t9 as on a real keyboard. I miss it so much.

I kind of a little bit believe that dreams have some weird predictive ability. The scientist in me knows it’s likely a mix of confirmation bias and information synthesis, but like… my family has a pretty strong history of dreaming about deaths and births a week or two prior to pregnancy announcements and right before/after deaths. My mom has had several dreams where a loved one has come and chatted with her in a dream and said goodbye, then later that day we learn they passed, for example. It’s happened enough that I have a lot of trouble brushing it off. I’ve had a similar dream myself and it felt quite different from a normal sleep dream. That one was less paranormalish though, it was a friend who died a few years ago and showed up to give me some life advice. Just… hit me in a specific, indescribable way (it was good advice too).

Can’t explain it. Don’t really believe it’s paranormal I guess, but I also don’t disbelieve.

I expected this to be downvoted a lot because whatever paid-for group is promoting inner-class violence wouldn’t want the ideologies they’re promoting to be challenged.

Oh get a life. It’s downvoted because you’re being disingenous and can’t believe anyone would find that distasteful, you twit. Who would hire people to downvote stuff like this on lemmy of all places? We’ll do it for free, especially if you add edits like that.

and this way we’re also not throwing value at a hostile american corporation.

As a person who has probably typed thousands of words defending the difference between ‘objective’ and ‘subjective’ I can’t tell you how good I feel reading your comment.

afaict Lemmy stayed ‘pretty good’ after the last reddit migration, maybe this one will be enough to fuel a lot of the niche communities that I think are missing here.

yay this time I came back to lemmy before it was cool.

I’m no great fan of windows, but I have no issues reconnecting to bluetooth things. Kinda the opposite really, my phone and windows keep wanting to compete for who gets to be connected to my headset as soon as I turn it on, I have to make sure to turn off bluetooth when I’m done with it. I think the problem may be on your end in this case.

Moral and social. I think in a sense these people are addicted to wealth, and we’ve failed them by not only allowing them to have so much of it, but by acting like it makes them better. Just like an addiction we shouldn’t expect them to get over it on their own.
