I'm always so extremely confused about the trope of the personal project having shit quality... Like, if I'm doing something for myself, that's exactly the place where I wanna do something amazing, like literally all my private projects have much higher quality than my work ones - because in the work ones I'm forced to use stupid conventions, old tools, am not supposed to touch "legacy" code, etc etc etc

As such, since companies have their private code on GitHub, that's where I would expect the shittiness to come from, not personal private projects.

    Idk, I never reinstalled anything and just installed a bunch of packages and followed some configuration guides for Arch and the respective packages. Took probably 5 hours or so to get the whole thing set up to a place where I could use it for 95% of things I usually do, which is gaming and browsing.

    Would be cool to have the money to afford a car or motorcycle and their respective licenses/insurance/gas/etc.

    And walking or bicycling 30+km? Some people don't have close friends.

    And when traveling, in any case, you're still pretty exposed and have to go around lots of people.

    I'm not saying you're entirely wrong, there's definitely ways to make it easier. But also you seem to just not be aware how different some people's perceptions/feelings are.

    I'm not sure what you're arguing for here, you really can't be arguing against online interactions being muuuuch easier, that seems to just be obvious. And some people can only handle these easiest kinds of interactions.

    Even if you make other kinds interactions easier, that's just not enough for some people. Then, internet interactions are amazing.

    Do you see 2 white lines inside the empty space? No? Then it's not two lanes being kept free. Everyone is just at the very edge of their own lane. Sometimes lanes are just wide, it doesn't usually look like this.

    Just had an interesting interaction/realization (azzurite.tv)
     

    Hope this is appropriate for this place. I just watched S04E04 of DS9 with this interaction (at 10:12, the linked clip in this post) an hour ago, and later talked with a friend who said basically the same thing about the Trump presidency: that it has positive effects in the sense that for example Europe is starting to be more independent from the US, the American citizens are waking up about how their political system is broken.

    And it's interesting to me, like obviously it'd be much better if we could all just get along and work together, but the status quo before was just the US doing the same shitty things as now, telling the EU what to do and the countries within the EU just do it no questions asked basically. The whole shittyness just covert. Now the shittyness is so obvious that "US allies" are stopping that dependency on the US.

    Let me know what you think, or if I am stupid. I am just mainly amazed by DS9 and Star Trek being so relevant still.
