The way I coped is through apathy, but then i realized that that was super depressing and it was very bad.

I then got enchanted by the idea of melancholy, I would just think about it to feel very sad because feeling sad was better than nothing at all.

It's a weird thing to say but it helps, you can't be truly sad unless you were happy before--there is beauty in that.

You don't need to do anything to distract yourself or plan to try and be busy enough that you don't have the time to think about it. Healing isn't when you find yourself forgetting.

I get it and agree mostly. I definitely think socioeconomic classes are more of a defining/dividing line than a heritage you happen to share with someone.

Only <1% of any humans DNA differs, but I think a better point is that everyone is atleast 50th cousins or something (Granted if you share a heritage its much closer)

But also if you told someone like my girlfriend that race isn't real she'd probably sock you. She's experienced it and its very real to her.

When we started dating I would actually try to talk about how I don't understand why she would side with someone solely because their skin was dark like hers and it would be a point of contention. She would literally associate with someone that objectively did something she thinks is reprehensible because of literally only that. She grew up very wealthy and never hurt anyone, guy on the news was someone in and out of prison who literally fired first on the guy that revived him with narcan--but they happen to have the same color of skin.

As a boy other Latinos would literally antagonize me for "acting white" because I would rather read during recess than play football/soccer--because being educated is associated with being white; we were the children of poor families with gangbangers as role models so we must obviously be destined for different things /s

I feel like a lot of racial issues are cultural and self-perpetuating. But my girlfriend in particular was the only black woman in a white conservative town, people would open doors for her friends and close it when it came to her, If I visit her hometown she doesn't want to be out for long, etc. So I get why it is very important to her.

I get how it can be shocking that someone doesn't know as much as you about something that seems like common knowledge to you,

XKCD comic about avergae familiarity

But tbh I'm like pretty certain the firmware is mostly the same, and it can't be that different if Switch 1 games can be upgraded to Switch 2 games. I doubt they went back and ported every single game to a new system if it wasn't easy to do so. So tbh I don't think its going to be that long for emulators to come out.

I thought about this a lot the other day.

Its "justification" is in that era girls go married off even younger than that.

That monk dude has to turn away a girl who's.. 14(?) after she asked him to take her with him and that she'd bear his children.

Personally, in that setting I think it's fine as long as they are not like fanservice to the viewer and its actually plot relevant. The monk asking her originally is more for humor as it was clearly shown as ridiculous and when it was more "legal" he took it more seriously and shot it down. That kind of humor is definitely a product of its era (wasn't the age of consent in Japan like 12 until less than a few decades ago?)

Also regarding Kagome, this anime was written by a woman and one of the main demographics is schoolgirls who want their heart to flutter by imagining themselves in a pseudo-isekai. Not saying it makes it right but it personally doesn't bother me because I get why stories like that exist coughTwilightcough

EDIT: The constitution set it to 13. But most prefectures up-ed it to 16 in recent decades apparently

I feel like I would treat my Togruta wife very well ;-;

Real talk tho, humans will eventually reach the stars, being negative/nihilist about it and saying it's better if it doesn't happen is dangerous because people like Elon/Donald will definitely do horrible things if people with remorse and morals aren't involved/ already established there / the one's initiating

Not saying you're nihilist, but I go to Uni in SF and everyone is so anti-imperialism that they think any form of colonization (even on a dead planet like Mars) is bad and it's pretty grating.

Elon should not be the one who decides how the land/living conditions are set up

Being able to "prove" that something is AI generated usually means that:

A) The model the generated it leaves a watermark, either visually or hidden

B) The model is well known enough that you can deduce a pattern and reference what you're checking with that pattern.

The problem with the former is that you are trusted this corporations (or individuals training their own models, or malicious actors) to do so.

There are also problems with the latter: The models are constantly iterating and being patched to fix issues that people notice (favoring certain words, not being able to draw glasses of liquids full to the brim, etc)

Also, if the image or work was made using a niche or not well-documented AI then it probably wouldn't be a pattern that you're checking.

Also also, theres a high false positive rate, because it's just pattern matching mostly.

There is "ELO" in these dating apps,

Swiping a lot at a low success rate makes your elo drop and you appear less in general, and if you do appear it'll probably be to another low elo person.

I don't like dating apps but if I had to advise, delete and remake the account to be "fresh" elo with no history and say no atleast 90% of the time. With the 10% being what you think is a decent shot.

Fallout is shitty but doable, I like the idea of rebuilding society and I like the technology.

That said, with he new show lore, if VaultTec is able to just keep nuking things that sprout up then ig it's pointless.

I used MariaDB for school projects, what exactly is wrong with it? Asking because I'm just unaware

One Way Heroics+

Semi-Rogue-like RPG, flee away from the darkness on the leftside of the screen, try and defeat demonlord and save the world. (Multiple endings)

One of my favorite games ever, guy made his own engine.

It does have design flaws, don't get me wrong. But this is is really novel and has enough content to get somewhat deep into it.

Eventually you start seeing the same things but for essentially a one man team it's really impressive.

I just switched to Nobara actually for my steamdeck and I was liking it a lot more than SteamOS but I was having some issues. (Ethernet just doesn't show up, indexing with baloo doesn't start)

Can you elaborate on why exactly it's amateur?
