  • I think it is something more of an ego thing. I never was in this position but many people explained to me that they feel offended if I am late.
    I only feel annoyed in such situation that I have to wait and can’t do anything before the person arrives. Being so often late myself I don’t think I could be truly angry though.

    Sorry I didn’t read it but I have adhd and it would be ableist to expect me to /s?

    God you guys really can make a super long comments have you thought of me? How do I feel seeing such a long wall of text and being excluded from discussion? /s

    All in all I won’t feel guilty for being late but I won’t feel entitled either. It’s my fault but it’s pointless to feel guilty if it happened. Not good for your mental health. Generally guilt is counterproductive and entitlement is weird.
    I try to not be late but if it happens it happens.




  • So again deleted my comment accidentally omg. I very like this idea. It’s burdensome but every phone already has simillar scanner. I wonder about privacy though. Can it be anonymised like monero?

    I imagine it as an optional feature and then verified people can opt in to only show other verified humans in some kind of next gen web similar to fediverse. Then two layers form naturally one of verified humans and the good old internet Wild West.









  • The AI will become utter garbage, mark my words. It will complete the downfall of the internet though first. What will come after internet? Hard to say maybe we will exchange culture in VR? Probably at some point every kind of forum will be unreadable from automated marketing and propaganda. Reddit already is. Lemmy is too small… yet but it will crash even harder if it is noticed by the wrong people. 2 years tops to enjoy this medium

    Though I admit I am somewhat of a doomer inclined so maybe there is a way to create alternative that cannot be poisoned



  • Unfortunately so much stuff on the web is astroturfed it’s hard to form a good opinion nowadays.

    Even the products reviews or maybe especially these it’s hard to tell what is true nowadays and what is fiction or misinfo

    Id love to brush it off and say eh just paranoid but there’s real money and motive.

    Reddit was relatively good for some time but then I heard it’s already full of marketing



  • I want to eat sprouts made by me every second day for super health feeling I like them but I seem to always forget about such a simple thing as washing the sprouting jar morning and evening.

    I considered some kind of electronic device with a red Led light catching eye or even blinking that I put near the jar and it activates at 8:00 am and I have to press the button to deactivate the blinking.

    So I have arduino lying about and there is realistically 0 percent chance I will finish this diy after 8 hours of hypeffocus and 3 changes of scope (more ambitious)


  • I sometimes wonder what constitutes betterment. If it is happiness or on the contrary feeling temporarily unhappy to feel happier later ? Is it attaining values that contemporary society has deemed desirable?

    Health sounds like one aspect that is objective. Physical fitness, mental wellbeing. But what if things that society puts on pedastal degrade our mental and physical health? Is it worsement ?

    I guess the question is collectivism vs individualism.

    Sorry about this, for some reason once a month I have a few days when I use social media in questionable ways
