I have a trauma-based personality disorder, which sometimes manifests itself in episodes of often uncontrollable bouts of verbal violence. I prefer to direct this to people on the internet (as opposed to actual people), as I don't wish to be violent towards people I actually care about.
get rekt, capitalist pigs!
He's gone to the roots! Though, if you're a person who goes to far-right gatherings it's not ok to be proud, were you a citizen of any country.
Yes, I agree, and I do believe the kid's parents would also agree. And it's not like the kid is given free reign to roam the internet, looking for the most cancerous, brain rotting, worst AI-slob the internet can provide, no. It's more like a TV basically, with age appropriate shows running in the background, and in our own language no less. He basically seems to occasionally take like a breather of sorts, stopping for something to bite or a sip of his milk or whatever, before running along with his childish endeavors.
But yeah, absolutely. Too much screentime in early childhood can and will lead to developmental delays, and in order to raise the optimal human being one should optimize every aspect of the child's life, adjusting at optimal intervals all according to the child's personal development. But you know, life doesn't work like that. And yet, as I just stated to the comment you replied to, I am thankful for your concern; we're all trying to do our best for this kid. If my little gift of an old laptop can bring joy and happiness into that little dude's life, that is basically enough for me.
Oh yeah, that sounds good. He's a smart kid already, for sure, and his dad is an old nerd (like me tbh, except 10 years my senior) so yeah, might just do something like this... But maybe at first keep it as a Youtube-machine, until he learns to speak and comprehend more stuff. But thank you for the idea, though! Really didn't consider this before.
Addendum: I should add that the distro should be Debian or Arch based basically (as these are the ones I know best, or have the most experience with), because if something doesn't work (for some reason) I will be the one debugging it, and I kinda don't want to learn a new distro and its quirks in order to do so. Because I'm lazy like that. So I'm gravitating towards maybe Manjaro or L/Xubuntu.
Linux distro for 14* year old laptop?
Hello all,
So I have this old Samsung RV520 laptop. You can see the specs there. I've installed and reinstalled a few different linux distros on it for the past 12 years or so, the last one being Arch (btw) which is what I use as my daily driver on my main desktop as well (by the btw). But I really don't need this laptop anymore, so I was thinking I'd give it as a birthday present to my friend's son, who turns 2 this month. It would be used as a "media station" to basically just play kids' videos from Youtube.
The problem is that I basically need to install an extremely windows-like (or otherwise simple) distro on it, because while my linux-fu is somewhat high level, my friend uses windows daily so system maintenance must be simple. Ubuntu is for me the obvious choice, but I'm not sure if the laptop can even run it anymore :D of course the HDD in it is also 16 years old and I'm pretty sure I'll upgrade it to an SSD before
what the fuck, boris?
This is how the fascist works. It works itself into the hearts of the public by selling the idea of stability and security, how in these unsure times we should trust in them. This is, obviously, complete and utter bullshit, and will only end in totalitarianism.
that kind of careful lawyering takes time
This is advanced skullduggery!
But yeah, no one was ever going to do anything about anything. Why would they? It's not like they actually care about you people. And it's not like my country isn't a trainwreck on fire sinking fast into a swamp, but at least our cops are given an education longer than that of a barber's before being given a position of authority, with deadly force to enforce. But, given how much my country nowadays loves to ape whatsoever daddy Amerikkka has done or is doing (I'm looking at you currently-being-privatized once-public healthcare and fascists in the government!), I ain't exactly holding out hope for the future of our police force.
That was 5 years ago. What's with the fucking hold up; the fat, doughnut-eating, trigger-happy, right-wing gun-nut, klan-members that are the police force there didn't wanna agree to not systematically discriminate and/or use excessive force, huh?
"I'll change baby, I promise"
"act entitled and cry 'antisemitism!' if criticized" seems to have been their chosen method thus far. I guess the stupid fucks really need to be taught to not post their war crimes online. But then again, I think you need to have an IQ score lower than the average US boot size to ever be a(n IDF) soldier.
A list of targets, one could call it?
You are very welcome to use it, my friend. I think it's very apt, but I can't remember where I read it for the first time though.
How many meals can this buy for those wanting? Shelters for the homeless? Treatment for the sick? Oh wait, I forgot. The US is a third world country with a Gucci belt. The fascists do what the fascists do.
Demand away. None should indeed be given for these wealth-hoarding parasites. Gun down more, I say.
I haven't been diagnosed with ADHD, though my sister has been, and I have a history of depression, anxiety and personality disorders (and I'm most likely a bit autistic) as well as a stoner.
Anyhow, maybe you could focus on the parts of your ADHD that do get worse, see if you can identify them and then maybe work on those? There rarely is just one "panacea" that works for all, as you might know already.
Also, have you tried other ways of enjoying the product? Vaping or eating even (cannabutter etc), instead of smoking? It delivers a different effect on the body, which might affect the cognitive and emotional response differently. I have noticed that for me, vaping is usually considerably less in your face and might even pleasantly surprise me when the high hits, and space cakes just seem to hit the body more, making me more relaxed.
Also the difference between indica and sativa, between different strains, and different growing conditions all will have an effect on the product, right down to the molecular level, wherein some bud will have higher amounts of THC, which causes the "drunkenness", and others will have more others like CBD, which in turn causes the relaxation (afaik, not 100% sure on the specifics of these). My own experience is that the strongest possible sativa, laden with THC is more often that not worse for my psychotic symptoms and executive dysfunctions than somewhat milder options.
oh wow, a major media outlet caught lying? I would be shocked, flabbergasted even, if it weren't business as usual for them (emphasis on business)
Oh yeah, and maybe add some voice output to these automatons, so the machines can call the potential customers gay, and insult their fiscal levels (the go-to insults in any finnish bar).
Well, I work as a bartender, and here in Finland it's strictly against the law to serve alcohol to, or even allow a "visibly intoxicated person" to enter the premises (a law which almost every bar breaks at some point, intentionally or no), and I think I've witnessed multiple times myself how a customer's level of intoxication reveals itself only after you have served a drink to them and they've payed for it. Could it be called a Schrödrinker's cat?
Oh yes, let there be blood.
