This makes me so nervous about how AI is going to influence children and adolescents of the coming generations. From iPad kids to AI teens. They’ll be at a huge risk of dissociation from reality.

Sadly the Android app is no longer maintained, and it hasn’t been released for newer versions of Android.

There’s an unmaintained Windows client.

Actually here is one that’s still active: https://github.com/IJHack/QtPass

Being eternally trapped in a mental prison. Imagine having a panic attack that never ends. I’m pretty sure that type of prolonged stress would cause a psychotic break where your psyche fractures and you become a despondent shell. You would become deathly afraid of everything, even the people you love, because of an unceasing paranoia. That basically sounds like hell to me.

I’m not really afraid of the idea of nothingness after death, because at least then I am released from the torment of living.

couldn’t you always just run a Linux VM at near-native speed, and get the benefits of both?

The obvious downside is that Linux is no longer the host OS. MacOS or Windows would be closed source code managing your hardware. And any VM could only be as fast as the host OS allows it to be.

the risks in cannabis are comparable to caffeine, and on an objective level, even smaller

OK maybe? I think it depends on the user. Excuse my falling back on anecdotes now, but I don’t think I’ve met anyone whose had a panic attack from drinking coffee (though I would not be surprised). However I know several people who have had panic attacks from ingesting THC.

I agree that we are too blase as a culture about the relative risks of caffeine and alcohol dependence. I just get frustrated when people parrot the notion that cannabis has never hurt anyone. I even support the cause to at least decriminalize it and even legalize it for adults, though we need better education about the potential risks. I’ve only ever seen warning labels about the habit-forming nature.

That’s probably because I’m trying to defend my initial statement, and I didn’t realize you were only taking issue with the sources I presented.

In light of that, excuse my accidental strawman. But also, I don’t really care to argue about the veracity of the research presented by the NIH.

There’s clearly no convincing you. By all means, continue to spread the myth that cannabis can do no harm to anyone, and eventually the wrong person will believe you.

Someone’s asking for sources on wild claims, quick, let me google some correlations

You say that like it’s a bad thing. What else am I to do when someone asks for sources? I’ve read similar research in the past and went to find it again.

If you look at the link between alcohol and mental health disorders

That’s whataboutism.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK425748/

It’s not harmless. It’s linked to mental illness and increased stress. People need to stop spreading this myth.

EDIT: I know that people are down voting because weed is incredibly popular and rarely does harm, but that doesn’t mean you should propagate the myth that it’s harmless. Your personal experience should not speak for everyone.

Weed can easily cause intense anxiety and paranoia if the user takes more than they can handle. This is just as true for someone who is trying it for the first time as it is for someone with a long history of use.

If you have ever had panic attacks or heart palpitations, the combined increase in heart rate and anxiety may trigger a panic attack. It’s also habit-forming enough that people who’ve had panic attacks will keep using it despite knowing they are risking a really stressful experience.

Watch detective Pikachu and it might help.

How can you tell?

Stop using Brave, people.

I think Kodi is a good choice, but not really sufficient for everything you might want to do IMO.

You could also look into KDE Plasma Bigscreen. It’s still pretty rough around the edges, but I think it aims to do what you want.

I am actually thinking about building something similar with different tech, as I’m not satisfied with any of the existing options. I really want something that’s primarily controlled via a mobile Web interface like the Kore app for Kodi.

Nothing about networking?

You should say “unstable channel”. It’s literally just a rolling release that pulls from the nixpkgs master branch. So it’s only as stable as it needs to be to pass the Hydra CI tests.

And if you get to a working version, you can pin that as a Nix flake to avoid anything breaking until the next time you nix flake update.

How Linux Fanboys see Linux:

It’s so ironic how many downvotes this is getting in the context of this thread.

So I’m seeing “Window Protocol: wayland” in about:support. Seems like somehow I’m just not affected by this issue.
