  • Yesterday, I made a choice that was very tough for me to make. So three years ago, I had a best friend, and we both liked each other. Things got hard because my feelings went too far, I became emotionally unstable and turned into an attention seeker. So because of that, I then ended the friendship.

    Recently, she added me back. I thought we could be friends again because I felt like I improved my mental state in the last two years and won’t turn into an attention seeker again. Well, a week later, I was the same as I was three years ago.

    It was ruining my mental health severely. I couldn’t focus on anything. But I still wasn’t ready to give up on the friendship because she was a very nice friend, and I still liked her for some reason. So I refused to give up. But things got worse real quick, and then I decided to write a long message to her explaining why I can’t continue this friendship and then I blocked her everywhere.

    At the cost of ending all probabilities of a future with her, I feel much better now.

    Gotta do something about this attention-seeking thing, though.

    “send a patch via mail” process.

    I don’t see a problem with it. I don’t know what tools you use, but the current process certainly isn’t ancient. Even if I use GitHub or something else, I still highly depend on my e-mail to actually know somebody published a patch and if I am supposed to review it. I don’t have to use a GUI coupled with shitty UI decisions. E-mails are very simple in their own way and I don’t find it ancient or bad.

    I am not really into shells, so my experience is very novice when it comes to shell scripting, but I’ll let you know that I went from bash to zsh, and then I also tried fish but went back to zsh because I felt that it was superior. Generally I find zsh to be little easier than Bash, but bash isn’t bad in itself too. I disliked having to learn new syntax for basic shell scripting for fish the most I think.

    I wonder what is its main selling point as a distro now though

    I wanted to experience Arch and wanted something simple and quick (I was busy those days, so DIY Arch wasn’t a choice). I tried EndeavourOS, but it wasn’t simple, they make many configurations to the system which ruined the vanilla experience of all the WMs and DEs. I started looking for alternatives, I found Crystal to be attractive and well-maintained, so I went for it. I think it’s selling point is being simple and as friendly and vanilla as possible.









  • I have met a Flat Earth conspiracy believer mom who was homeschooling her kid, explaining how the sphere Earth model is wrong and so on, her complain was that despite her best efforts to indoctrinate educate her child, the child was not convinced that the Earth is flat. It goes to show that some children are just too intelligent to fall for this kinda shit. The child was eight or nine years old I think.
