No? Sorry for my ignorance, but I don't understand what this has to do with the question I asked. Do you mind to elaborate? I'm serious and I'm not trying to act like dickhead, so sorry if I have offended someone.
Yeah I know that, but I don't get it how this is related to some people making fun of couple billionaires losing their lives in pretty horrible way. And again sorry if I offend someone
I got ADHD so I enjoy a lot of things, top of them are reading, drawing, writing, learning English and Japanese and various IT/tech tinkering.
I‘m working in SAP, though I see that only as a means to sustain myself and conform, but I refuse to see the work as part of my being or personality. I try to be pleasant and funny IRL, which I‘m told works well, but on the inside I‘m a depressed mess. I try to work on that in therapy, but it‘s not super effective for me. Well it helped a bit, as I now have more of a "try to find joy in little things" attitude, but the doom is still all there.
Online, I‘m mostly to offload some of my darker thoughts on the world, which haunt me if I don‘t let them out occasionally. Reddit was my main outlet for that as it had a large variety of "doomer" subs, now I got unleashed on the fediverse, right now looking for some anti-corporate instance or maybe something anarchist to fit into.
I‘m in my early 30s, I used to be an academic doing AI stuff, for now I’m a SAHM which has been a big change. Used to do programming, gaming and embroidery in my free time, liked tinkering with my pc setup (I use arch btw). Now I don’t have much time anymore, seriously staying home with a baby is a million times more stressful than any job I ever had! So now the hobby I make time for and refuse to give up is RPGs, tabletop and PC. Can’t wait for my son to be old enough to play also.
whoa whoa there buddy, you're not going anywhere without transponder, lights, altimeter, radio and safety systems required by any aviation authority. either you carry server rack worth of equipment with you at all times or use an actual plane
I love video games, board games, music, and traveling. I used to love programming too, but working as a software dev for as long as I have has kind of killed that passion 😅
Life is great! I feel very fortunate to not have a lot of stressors in my life. I hope that’s more common than it seems these days!
Yeah, that's why I never encourage people to work in something they love. It will kill your passion for it. Instead, do something you can put up with and find something you like about it. What video games and music do you like?
Oh I completely agree. Funny enough, I never intended to do it as a career. I always wanted to be a pilot. But unfortunately the FAA considers me “medically unfit”, so I had to go with my backup plan.
For video games I’m all over the place lol. I’m a huge fan of 2D platformers, so Spelunky 2 and Hollow Knight are pretty high up on my list. I’ve played a ton of OSRS over the years, but I’ve been taking a hiatus for the last few years. I imagine I’ll start playing again eventually! Besides that, some of my other favorites are Factorio, Terraria, Dark Souls/Elden Ring, and Divinity Original Sin 2. There’s just too many to even name haha.
For music I’m a metal fan, specifically progressive metal. But I really enjoy electronic, rap, and classical as well.
Wow, similar thing for me, I have a 'bicuspid aortic valve' which means the aortic valve in my heart is a bit funky and doesn't push blood through as it should. And that makes the FAA also deem me medically unfit. I think there is a process to get a medical exemption, but with the cost of getting a license so high already, I just decided to stick with MSFS. I get to 'fly' a 737 like I wanted as a kid, learn all about it, but I'm not shelling out thousands and years of my life (okay, maybe I am shelling out some money but I like pretty airports!)
That’s a bummer! For me it’s Narcolepsy, and because the only medication that works for me also disqualifies me, exemption isn’t an option for me.
MSFS really is awesome! The level of detail with the planes blew my mind. Come to think of it, I haven’t tried playing it again since I upgraded my PC. I should give it a shot!
That's awesome! Some pretty great games you've listed. I also love Dark Souls/Elden Ring and Hollow Knight as well! Those are intense games, but getting the platinum in them is fun. I also love God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Mario, and Shadow of Mordor/War. But my favorite game of all time is Zelda and I've been playing the new one basically non stop.
I assume you're excited for Silksong? I just hope it gets released sometime in the next 10 years.
I'd probably just camp out at a Brazilian steakhouse, personally. Make sure to eat lots of fiber and drink lots of water too, to keep you running consistently.
