I find myself thinking that if I get high I will have an easier time ignoring the pain and doing something good like cleaning or working.

That isn’t true, though. Getting high every day will add another problem on top of those you already have.
It reduces your capacity to change things and your capacity to cope with what you can’t change.

That being said, if your pain is physical and chronic, you basically have no other choice but to take drugs.
And weed is one of the better options for dealing with chronic pain.
But then ideally you should do it under medical supervision, and not with the goal of knocking your brain out, but making the pain manageable so you can live your life.
This would likely mean not to smoke lots of weed with lots of THC, but consuming smaller doses of slower-acting edibles with a higher CBD amount.

Weird 4:3 looking motherfucker

if you don’t wanna create emissions, just use solar power.

If you have access to solar power, it would be better to use it for something else, or feed it back into the grid.
As long as we’re still burning fossil fuels to create electricity anywhere on earth, wasting any kind of energy is bad.

Crypto has a price (because people believe that it has a price).
It doesn’t add any value to anything. It’s expensive (in terms of energy cost) and absolutely, 100% useless.

Counter-point:
crypto-mining should be illegal, period. (and so should AI)
We’re on the brink of climate collapse, we as a species can’t afford to waste massive amounts of electricity on something that literally creates no value.

I actually like point-buy systems where you get better at what you actually use (like in Morrowind).
I start at average values in everything and see where the story takes my character.

That’s just sad.

Missing:

• god-like magical being, masquerading as Just Some Dude (closely related: The Super-Powered Self-Insert)
• Most boring, generic build available in the system, played ironically (“His name is Hugh M. N. Fi-Thor”)

Fun fact: If I use my 4G with a device that isn’t a phone, that’s against the terms of service and they can cut my access.

Awesome, that cuts the Steam update time till I can game down to under half an hour!

I’m kinda trying to get back to how it was in the past a bit.
Realize that life happens outside of the internet, and I don’t need to read a stream of news from the other end of the world that I can’t do anything about and don’t affect me yet.

It would be enough to prove I have a working perpetuum mobile and become rich.

Create one!

Doesn’t matter how happy the RAM supposedly was, you still pay for someone to cut it up into bytes and solder it into a chip.
No one needs RAM anyway, you can easily live off CPU cache and SSD space.

Phone battery. Then I could modify the phone to let it power other devices and have unlimited electricity.
With a full tank of petrol, I’d create pollution if I tried that.

WTF can you link this?

There’s no way in hell 2007 was 18 years ago.

This is my rifle
This is my nun
This is for shooting
This is for fun

It’s crazy that in 2025 hardly anyone is pointing it out.

Are you living under a rock?

Debian’s build still depends on an xserver.

Or if you’re ambitious, you practice in front of the busiest footpath and get all of the embarrassment of failing in front of an audience out of the way early.
So nothing can phase you later when you perform.
