The "Why?" is a spoiler, i didn't realize it at first too, just was bold text in voyager.

And you are right, ir also could have been a decrepit german with the name shepard lol

Please get an appointment with an psychiatrist and start looking out for an therapist before the ruminations (that's what that is called) turn darker. A partner will not help with this more than in the short term, I speak from long years of experience.

There are multiple probable causes for ruminations: depression, trauma and personality disorders are the most common ones. only a psychiatrist can get you an correct diagnosis, which will help pinpoint where the ruminations come from, but the way out is always therapy.

But you can be sure that you are not bad or gross or something like that - your mind is just fixated on bad thoughts and experiences. Others will have a completely different picture of you. Knowing how my mind works when caught in my "loop", you don't believe one word of that, but it still needed to be said :-)

A world run by Roblox would mean worldwide child labor, getting paid in company scrip and widespread abuse. That's why you shouldn't run it, asswipe.

IIRC that was caused by a buffer underflow, his probability to try to go nuclear was set to literally zero, which was stored in an unsigned int, and in-game policies reduced it further, causing a nuke-maxing ghandi

Many react to your mouse cursor, like glowing wisps dodging the cursor or the eyes of a cat following it; some of the more lewd give "xray"-vision around the cursor if that's your thing, and others can be used for media control. Those features can all be disabled if unwanted. i haven't dug into that stuff too deeply.

That whole pamphlet is creepy as fuck.

  • The President looks like she would praise the lord while you get punished for "being not faithful enough" or some shit
  • The Mum in the Mother/Daughter photo smiles like a shark before a good meal
  • The adult man in the first box of the comic strip has the look of a predator fixated on Ronny
  • The face of the child in front of the PC says "let me out of this crazy cult which put a tie on me for home school"
  • In the description of the 4 elements of the "Reading Enhancement Program" the word "drill" is used a total of 8 times.
  • During the "Service Adventure" (something like a int'l exchange program to help/proselytize to the poor unwashed masses in mexico) the person from Thailand said that he learned survival skills like eating new tastes of food and drinks, sleeping on the floor and learning carpentry and sewing (the last two things are at least useful)
  • The most important thing for impoverished children around the world isn't food, water, a safe place to sleep and education, but... the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Austria also has a few ice hockey clubs, had a few years where i was pretty often going to the matches. it's been a few years, but playoffs got around 4k visitors in vienna around 2010. Slovenia also has a few.

John Barnett said that the corner cutting during construction would culminate in a crash after 10 to 12 years.

not necessarily. John Barnett, the Boeing whistleblower which died after 2 days into his three day deposition, said that that the assembly line sloppiness would take about ten to twelve years to culminate in a crash.

The desktop background is animated with a wallpaper engine plugin, showing a cyberpunk city with the silhouettes of a few people rummaging through a giant heap of tech scraps, with one figure standing on top and looking into the bright city lights. Light fog is moving over the scene while it rains.

Hi people! I have been pirating for myself for over 30 years now, and with the ever growing size of warez and the laughable upstream limit my ISP has, i have come to the point where it's not practical to maintain a 1:1 ratio for all torrents anymore - my active torrent list keeps growing beyond practical limits, and i'm someone who wants to keep sharing things for the people after me, esp. torrents with low amounts of seeds.

I'm pretty sure that i know more than i think i do, but i would be happy about a few pointers to get started with a seedbox. i have beginner linux skills, advanced user skills, and not shy of reading manuals on how to get things to work. i have not tinkered with docker much yet, but i'm willing to learn.

Edit: From what i've learned and seen i tend towards an dedicated server since i might want to host other services for myself too, so suggestions for what hoster to look at are welcome!

 
 

Hi, i didn't find anything using the search, so i just wanted to know if any issues are known causing those error messages, which need a few reloads to resolve; additionally, voting on an post often takes 2, sometimes 5 or more tries.

i already tried:

  • logged in/out
  • with my VPN(Mullvad, on by default) and without
  • Firefox / Vivaldi / Edge
  • wired / wireless

and before i get into the weeds with the abyssmal support of my ISP i wanted to know if any of you have encountered the same issues.
