The world is on fire, fascism is on the rise, war is everywhere, prices are out of control, the future looks bleak as fuck, but yeah we have tictok… Woohoo…
That’s awesome! I wish I could do that. I quit a fairly well paying job because I can’t stand driving in this overpopulated shit hole I live in adding 3+hours to my day and now I’m a factory schmuck so I have to drive some distance just to get to work anyway.
Tried learning some forms of development so I could try to work remotely as that seems to be the only way to really dump your car, but my dumbass brain finds no interest in anything development related… I’m not sure if I hate my brain or driving more lol
“Boss! Boss! The devil possessed me last night and I got some wonderful ideas for you! Want to ship way too fucking soon but still make money? Pre-orders! We get the people hyped and offer the product to buy now before they get to find out it’s shit! But wait, the devil had an even better idea than that… Early access if you pre-order!! We get their money now and they beta test for us! The people want everything yesterday so we can just monetize impatience!”
I’m just starting to learn HTML and oh my fucking god do I LOVE chatGPT… Holy hell… I can’t even begin to express just how amazing it is to be able to ask basic questions and not only get a reply, but provide example code, and it will elaborate or be as concise as you like… I LOVE IT! I’m especially happy to see they don’t ask for your phone number and other absurdly intrusive unnecessary information anymore. That’s what kept me away at first.
I do know it’s not infallible and I probably won’t use it as much as I move on to more complex programming.
It definitely is crazy shit, not always self harm. For whatever reason I always get it when I see nice cars, my brain immediately goes to “kick the headlights!” and then I cringe when I imagine it actually happening, it’s so odd because the desire pops up but my reaction to it is disgust or “pain” like I definitely don’t want to do it.
It’s a tin foil hat theory but I’m pretty convinced he deliberately ruined it and did the whole “subtle admission” by literally naming it X, as in “no” or “closed.”
For me, my “education” with math was "when you see this: 5/73¥π7^t then you use 5-8(25&6)_9gh8/6 not 5&6(9!4_89) ok memorize it for the test.
Oh you want to know why or what it does or what it even is? No that’s college work. You’re in highschool, memorize it because reasons.
Yeah… That’s not how my brain works no matter how badly I wish I did. I need to UNDERSTAND not memorize! I can’t memorize seemingly arbitrary bullshit that has no explained meaning. My brain instantly tosses it as irrelevant information.
This is 100% me, I just commented elsewhere a similar thing, for me I love that the streams tend to be long. I like having things playing for long periods at a time so having to stop and find a new video every 10 minutes is maddening especially if I’m at work and it’s more like background noise about a topic/game I enjoy.
For me it’s nice to have someone playing the same game as I am while I’m playing, the streams are usually long so I don’t need to worry about stopping to find something new to put on and I learn stuff about the game I might have missed or just never knew. I live alone so, depending on the streamer, the conversation is also nice to have around.
I can’t say I’m one of those that only watches a stream though, I need to be doing something other than just watching lol
