  • iPhones and iPads may be trash but macOS is still certified UNIX and the Apple silicon M1-M4 are honestly game changers in PC CPU design.

    I would never buy an iPhone or an iPad.

    I would definitely, on the other hand, pay some good money for a high end mac. I just simply don't have that kind of money to throw around. But if I did, I would.

  • Sir, respectfully we're trying to cure the disease of not having catgirlfriends.

  • When I was with my ex, after he fucked me over. He chased me irl in his car and was screaming out his car to me while I was riding my Bike. I was petrified and was crying the whole time running away. But now I get it. People who love go great measures to get u back. Thats how I feel now.

    Look, that's an incredibly unhealthy thing to take from that interaction. People with real love in their hearts are willing to let go of who they love if it means better things for that person. They love them enough to want the best for them, even if means losing them. They don't follow screaming and crying demanding that the other give up a better future for them.

    I've done all I can, and I think most others have, too. If you don't actually want to listen to the advice given by many people who have taken time out of their days to try to encourage you into healthy relationship habits, that's your choice. Because in this thread and the last, all I've seen is healthy advice given and healthy advice ignored. Maybe that's just because you're young and haven't learned enough to understand that it is indeed healthy advice, but it is. Beating yourself up for your past and treating yourself like you don't have worth due to it is a choice, and it's an unhealthy one. I really do hope things get better for you. Doing this to yourself won't make it better, it will just make your depression and mental health worse. Freeing yourself from the chains of treating yourself like you are a bad person is the healthy choice and will improve your mental health. It's okay if you're not prepared to go down that path, but it's also okay if people want to stop giving you advice because you can't or won't listen.

  • Nobody is dimissing it. Didn't dismiss it last time either.

    Even sex workers deserve a healthy love life because sex work is work.

    I’m trying so hard to get something I can’t it’s killing me

    Don't waste time on people who don't want to be with you. You can't force someone to love you or feel ways about you. You deserve to be accepted as you are, without judgment for what you have done. A good partner would not make you feel less for taking money from old men but would hold you while you cried about it and tell you they loved you anyway. They would tell you that it was okay to have negative feelings about what you did but that it didn't change how they felt about you. Support not judgment. He chooses to make you feel worse through judgment instead of acceptance.

  • You gotta let this guy go. Same advice as the last time you asked about this guy just two weeks ago.

    He is the one assigning your worth to your "body count." Nobody gets to choose what their sexual choices mean except the person who makes those choices: You.

    He sounds untrustworthy and wants you to be controlled while he gets to scheme on women online.

    Same as last time, you're worth more than this guy who tries to bring down your self esteem and self worth through judgment instead of acceptance.

    You're far too young to be worrying about a guy who treats you this badly.

  • Definitely how I got my scars.

  • I can't go to jail my mother cookin chicken for dinner, damn!

    One of my favorite lines ever.

  • Yeah generally it's in bad form to mess with other people's projects without their permission at university. CS Professor probably won't be impressed.

  • I haven't messed with it yet, but ddclient works with a lot of domain registrars.

    ddclient even suggest these as alternatives:

  • I guess all Garland's fucking waffling and "not wanting to appear political" was literally fucking pointless then. So glad he worried so much about how things appeared instead of, you know, going after fucking criminals doing crimes.

  • Remember when people lost their shit over an Xbox console being all digital distribution and no ability to sell used games like 10 years ago maybe?

    Tom Waits - Crossroads

    Now, George was a good straight boy to begin with,
    \ but there was bad blood in him someway
    \ he got into the magic bullets and
    \ that leads straight to Devil's work
    \ just like marywanna leads to heroin
    \ You think you can take them bullets and leave 'em, do you?
    \ Just save a few for your bad days.
    \ well...

    Well, now we all have those bad days when we can't hit for shit.

    The more of them magics you use,
    \ the more bad days you have without them
    \ So it comes down to finally
    \ all your days being bad without the bullets
    \ It's magics or nothing.
    \ Time to stop chippying around and kidding yourself,
    \ kid, you're hooked, heavy as lead

    And that's where old George found himself.
    \ Out there at the crossroads.
    \ molding the Devil's bullets.
    \ Now a man figures it's his bullets,
    \ so it'll hit what he wants to hit.
    \ But it don't always work out that way

    You see, some bullets is special for a single aim.
    \ A certain stag, or a certain person
    \ And no matter where you aim, that's where the bullet will end

    Vampire Weekend - Pravda (Official Visualizer)

    I've waited through the wars of winter
    \ I've watched the cherry blossoms bloom
    \ I cannot wait here any longer
    \ I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
    \ I know what lies beneath Manhattan
    \ I know who's buried in Grant's Tomb
    \ I wonder if they'll wait a while to clear away my crocodile
    \ I'm leaving at the rising of the moon

    They always ask me about pravda
    \ It's just the Russian word for truth
    \ Your consciousness is not my problem
    \ 'Cause when I come home, it won't be home to you

    Your Uncle Henry lived in Moscow
    \ Your Aunt Ludmilla lived therе too
    \ Irina grew up in Wisconsin
    \ I'm leaving at the rising of thе moon
    \ The final moments in a doorway (The final moments in a doorway)
    \ The sacred light of afternoon (The sacred light of afternoon)
    \ Something starts to shake the leaves, you tug upon your T-shirt sleeves
    \ And shiver 'til the rising of the moon

    \ It's just the Russian word for truth
    \ Your consciousness is not my problem

    Unpopular Opinion @lemmy.world
    Snot Flickerman @lemmy.blahaj.zone

    All the articles about the Tesla stock dropping after March 10th were just wishcasting.

    Until March 10th, the Tesla stock dropped dramatically to a low of $222.15, and the articles posted that day were reasonable. Honestly, it was lower last spring at $142.05 in April 2024. Everything after March 10th were not reasonable or reflective of reality.

    As of today the stock sits at $287.99, nowhere near its peak but still overvalued as living fuck.

    Yet somehow, we've had two fucking solid weeks of "Tesla stock dropping" news articles while the stock has been slowly creeping back up.

    All those articles just serve as wishcasting for people who don't like Musk.

    I fucking hate Musk, but what I hate more is ignoring reality around you. That's what MAGA idiots do.

    I had the stupidest arguments with people who kept saying that it was rising didn't matter. Why not? He's still way up in terms of valuation from just a year ago, and it's still rising, no matter what bullshit fantasy we want to tell ourselves because we reasonably fucking hate Elon Musk.

    Anyway

    U.S. Institute for Peace called D.C. police on Musk team members ... instead, the D.C. police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials

    Aishvarya Kavi

    Lin said that the U.S. Institute for Peace called the D.C. police on the Musk team members in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building and the land it sits on. But instead, the D.C. police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials.

    Before the D.C. police arrived, the Musk team had tried for hours to enter the building. They attempted to enter on Friday, but that effort was unsuccessful.

    Is anyone else getting failures to generate reports when reporting the constant spam from "Nicole, the Fediverse Girl" which originates from a different, new instance every time?

    I just want to know if reports are failing for anyone else and if we need to be making some kind of plea to the admins/moderation teams/developers to try to fix it.

    Because not being able to report this obvious spam is a problem.

    This is not limited to yt-dlp. Tests have been run with the same account on various official YouTube TV clients (PS3, web browser, apple tv) and they are also only getting DRM formats for videos.
