EPIC TROLL!!!

Write a long ass book that’s filled with stupid stuff like “Fear not for I shall return from my deep sleep in 4*10^6 years and give the heavens (a bunch of virgin girls) to those who I find worshipping near the ground of this very hole you find the book I sent you” and toss it in.

DO NOT return in 4*10^6 years otherwise you wouldn’t have trolled the entire humanity.

Or is it? VSauce music kicks in

Diarrhea 4 is my GOTY

cool

I’m usually a shut-in due to my studies so to spice things up I go out and chat with strangers and become friends. I never talk to them again though so they just leave. After a few months I go out again and the cycle continues. Keeps me down to earth. Keeps me sane.

All the listed options are nice but if you are looking for something more portable and doesn’t require any installing, I recommend PairDrop.

I check and update them whenever I can. There is no reason not to.

I recommend reading about Daisuke Amaya (a.k.a Studio Pixel) and his creation, Cave Story.

He made the game in the course of five years and moved to a less intensive and low pay job to work on the game. The man made the art, soundtrack, the program he used to compose and render the said soundtrack and the fucking game engine. He’s also called “The father of indie games”

Somebody let out their dogs, no?

Sometimes I wish there were awards on Lemmy

What do you mean by that?

Literally teach them how to! When I deem them mature enough, of course.

Of course, there’s the chance that they don’t like tech.

I’m pretty confident that they will. If I get to raise the kid as I see fit. But you know I’m not expecting them to be a hobbyist or anything. Knowing small things like circumventing network blocks might be important in the future weather that would in a school enviroment or an oppresive regime. The latter of which is getting closer in my country to reality each passing day.

I think watching over kids without them knowing is the key. Time limit is stupid in my opinion. Obviously porn sites and other appropriate sites will be blocked network wide and when the time comes I’ll slowly teach the child how to circumvent the measures and even create their own.

As you have pointed out, feeling under pressure will definitely detrimental for the child development so it’s best to avoid that.

I don’t know I never felt the need to customize the terminal. I just like what it comes with. It feels wrong to change that. Black background and colored text is fine. The rest of the OS though damn it’s like a fucking birthday party! Nothing’s at default ffs

I agree with all you’ve said. Especially the monopoly part is where I disagreed the most. This is a good document to inform people about the ideology behind computers. Well, would be if not for those mistakes you have mentioned.

Other than those, as you have said, it’s a thought-provoking essay.

Of course, you can always say some stuff like “damn who hurt you” and leave the discussion if you wish.

Thanks for obeying! Much appreciated.

Books are not meant to entertain. If you “realize” when you are over 30 that books are only for entertainment, then you are simply put, a lazy person.

Classics never outdate. They will forever remain as the must-reads for people who want to expand their knowledge and perception of the world because they come from a time where information was not as easily exchangeable as it was today. The only way to share ideas effectively and permanently was writing books.

You have no right to downlook on classics. Reading a classic book that has proven it’s value long ago will forever be more beneficial to a person than an author’s silly book that is written with the sole purpose of entertainment.

Reading 1984 WILL make a person clever.

Of course, you can always say some stuff like “damn who hurt you” and leave the discussion if you wish. Don’t make ignorant comments if you don’t know what you are speaking about.

lmao.

Honestly I am really proud of everything in my life. I have learned English all by myself and I have always helped people around school with it which made me (plus being good looking and an interesting person) made me “the popular kid” in the school. In high school I was in a boys only school which really made me anxious when I speak with a girl my age. Guess that’s what happens when you don’t talk to a single girl of your age for 4 years. I’m not joking. I really have no female friends.

Another thing I’m proud of is my knowledge on computers. Which I assume is the majority here so I’ll skip that.

I have befriended people of many types. Some were confident, outgoing people. And some were anxious, shy, insecure people. The kind of people that are afraid of making eye contact with you when speaking. I have seen those people change around me. I learned that simply listening engaging in conversation with them opens them up. And now those people are not shy anymore! They engage in activities with other people and are happy. My companionship helped them navigate through their issues and they realized that if a person such as me listens and cares about them, there are people out there that will. And I’m really proud of myself for changing their lives.
