I actually hadn’t thought about it until now, but I used to get texts from recruiters all the time, but that stopped completely in December.
Two tired mice in a pail of milk, They swam around as best they could. But hope began to fade - what should they do? One wanted to drown itself, But its friend said, "No, no, no, For hope only triumphs, maybe, As long as we keep searching for it. Keep searching for it.

I have a family who loves me, and I bring joy and happiness to their lives. I can make their lives better, by being their for them. That’s the meaning of my life. It’s not what the world can do for me, but what I can do for the world.
I’m working hard to give my family a life I did not have, and I didn’t have my family, I would not have a meaning with my life. I don’t care for wealth or buying fancy things, I just care for improving the lives around me. I couls try to find more meaning in life itself, and I am trying to, but for now, this is enough for me.


I just read the update list. You can have an AI assistant answer your incoming calls and have the AI questioning the caller who they are and why they have called… I will hang up immediately if the phone is answered by AI. Such a weird feature.


That could also be it. I did get the Epstein-Barr virus when I was a couple of years old.
AIWS has been suggested to be an initial symptom of the Epstein–Barr virus and mononucleosis.


I’ll try my luck here, because you people are really smart.
As a kid I sometimes had this kind of derealization (never heard about term before this post) feeling, but my surroundings kind of changed form. It was like my surroundings got further away from me or zoomed out. I could sit at a table and suddenly I got this weird feeling that the table and everything around me got smaller and it was the weirdest sensation. I could look at my hands and they looked like they were not a part of me and huge compared to e.g. the table. Maybe it’s derealization, I don’t know. I couldn’t snap out of it, even though I was fully aware of it happening to me. Sounds became distant too and my vision blurred as well.
I’ve perhaps experienced it while being an adult as well. I have being disassociating my entire childhood, so if there is any correlation, it would make sense. Does that sound like derealization??
Edit: the more I read about, the more it definitely seems like derealization. I think what I’m describing is the Dolly zoom effect
Thousands of lives was perhaps a bit too high. I just thought of a family I talked with in Cambodia. They spent around $600/year, including all their expenses, and they were a family of four. They spent less than $1/day on food.
You could take the money and use the money to save thousands of lives.


No, now I poop 30 min after I take my medicine, every time, and I very rarely struggle with constipation or diarrhea.
I tried every diet and everything before starting on Methylphenidate, and nothing worked.


Severe IBS. Started on ADHD medicine and it was just gone. Unexpected side effect.
Low libido. Started on ADHD medicine and it was just improved a lot. Unexpected side effect as well.


Yeah, a rhino horn neti pot, that thing is amazing and it costs you next to nothing.


Damn, that’s the dream. Which toolbox(es) do you have? I’ve been looking for something to organise my tools, but I’ve hit analysis paralysis wall every time I’ve started looking into it.


Around 180k miles in my Toyota Corolla from '86. It died due to rust, I was a student so I didn’t have a lot of money to maintain it. It died in 2021. Besides the rust the car could’ve lived way longer. The engine and steering was in a perfect shape. Loved that car.


I’m impressed that you can keep track of all of these projects. I can never find my tools. Some tools are in the shed, because i most often need them there, but sometimes I need those tools inside, so I have my tools scattered between inside and outside and in between. So before I get started on a project I’m burned out by searching for tools and suddenly I’m too hungry.


This was not a: “tell me you have ADHD without telling me you have ADHD” haha.
Sounds awesome with all of these projects. I am the same way.


This one is even better




The 257 spike is 2021


No, but their bosses might be.


Oh, haha. The Tolstoy and Crime and Punishment combination tricked my mind. Loved crime and Punishment, probably my favourite book. But yeah, War and Peace was tough for me.


I have yet to return to Crime and Punishment. I read the first 2000 pages or so, in a couple of weeks, so only a 1000 to go.
But now it’s been so long, so I probably have to start all over. Is it worth it? I really enjoyed it, but the book is almost 700 pages long, and so much of it is description of war battles, and these battles were not really interesting for me. Did you enjoy the description of these battles? They take up so much of the book, and I felt the didn’t that much to the story line, but the intention and meaning of these battles have probably just went over my head.
But isn’t codeberg only for OSS? I imagine most companies won’t be able to migrate to codeberg for that reason.
