doesn't that require root? i dont have root access. it won't install from f-droid either I keep getting an unknown error. i try getting it from github and it can't be installed due to "conflicting packages" but I don't have anything that would conflict with it

    Hi everyone! I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 FE US version so I'm forced to stay on stock ROM due to the bootloader not being allowed to be unlocked. I used Shizuku and Canta to DeGoogle my phone over a year ago, and I absolutely love it! my biggest problem, though, is the fact that most apps refuse to launch without Google Play enabled on my device. I really don't know how to circumvent that, and my work app where i go to see my schedule requires Google Play (for some reason lmfao) to be enabled and I'm tired of using Bluestacks on my PC to check it lol. Is this just a consequence I have to deal with for DeGoogling my phone?

    i have a playtest copy but I haven't gotten the chance to play it yet. the demo was amazing by itself! i can't wait to playtest.

    btw, I have 1 more playtest invite if anyone wants it! DM for my steam friend code and I'll send you the invite :)

    this is very relatable

    when i was a kid i "made" a minecraft server for me and my buddy but i never portforwarded the server (and knew nothing about portforwarding at the time) so when i went into school the next day the i wrote down the server ip as "localhost:25565" on a piece of paper and gave it to him. we never played minecraft together that day.

    well that, and also the fact that image models only exist because these companies stole as many images/art etc. they could scrape off the internet and put them in these models with absolutely no payments or without the consent of the owners of these photos. The concept of AI images sounds really cool (especially for someone like me that is not an artist AT ALL) because you can generate basically anything you can think of, but you also have to think about how this technology exists in the first place, and who it hurts. I can afford to pay someone to draw for me (I have my friend drawing me as a VTuber avatar as we speak) so that's what I'll stick with.

    Soo I kinda need some help here. Ever since I've been working, it's been hard for me to hold a job. For reference, I've been working since I was 16 years old and I am turning 24 this week. I got my license to become an insurance adjuster when I was 19 years old, and have been trying to do that since, plus some other minimum wage stuff during off seasons. Since then I have been fired from multiple adjusting firms, insurance companies, and have walked out of multiple places, to the point where my license almost means nothing because most places know exactly who I am. I under perform, I have to meet people face to face which 90% of the time ends up bad because I'll say things I am absolutely not allowed to be saying, only for the sake of not "feeling awkward" in the moment, which only makes things worse in the present and future (had a gun pulled on me once). I don't really know how to describe it, and I don't know how to stop it. I've tried working with food, but the multiple smells and garbage you have to deal with consistently makes me sick to my stomach and when I go home I throw up for hours at a time. I've tried working in sales, but got fired from there because I hung up on a lady because my brain blanked out when trying to do a sales pitch (mind you, they even gave us a script to read in case that happens but for some reason my brain wouldn't let me say anything). I always tell myself, "oh yeah I won't fuck it up this time, I know what I'm going to not do this time," and then proceed to fuck it up. Like in my mind I know what to do, but I can't execute it. I don't know, am I just lazy?? I sometimes feel like I'm lazy, but sometimes I also feel like I just physically can't do things. I'm really conflicted, and I have a son I need to provide for, which is already hard enough for me. It's hard, and I'm honestly struggling. Mentally, financially, physically. My mom put me on medicine when I was a kid, but it messed with my appetite to the point where I wouldn't eat for multiple weeks at a time, and only ate when I was forced to, so my doctor said no more medicine. This post doesn't even explain all the times and reasons of me being fired and me walking out of jobs (if I explained every single one it would be like 3 more paragraphs the length of this post). Any advice helps. Thank you
