It’s not as bad as some fear, but not as nice as others hope for. You don’t even have to do drugs or fully die to try it out, but it’s a bit tricky to set up in modern life for most people. Lemmy is generally not the demographic for stuff like this though

It’s a bit of a mistake to assume that you would be your fully conscious, rational, Earthly self in the afterlife; with all your memories and such intact. Death is transformation. A better way to imagine it is as if you would have a really nice and long dream. You don’t get bored of dreams.

Framing my disabilities as an “inconvenience” that I’m too lazy to compensate for, and therefore am a “slavery client”, is very ableist. But I’m sure you already know that.

I remove my own upvote from my comments; it’s my own weird thing 😂

And no worries. I think food is one of those things that is extremely specific to each person. I’m sure most people would hate what I eat every day. I would describe it as “low-GI vegetarian”

Did you forget to type something?

Double post oops

It’s strange because I’ve only had good interactions with them. They were very helpful and gave me advice regarding some health issues, and even took the time to research some stuff with me

Banning for a single downvote seems a bit extreme lol

We need a real “deep dish pepperoni special” refactor into Rust

In this case, the more we talk about how evil this distro is, the more evil people will find and support it. We were never going to install it in the first place.

Same thing happened to me… was having takeout Indian curry every day; skipped one day and they asked me why. Made it feel really weird. Like, did I sign up for a responsibility or contract to get curry every day?

Aww man, one of my favourite parts of original Doom games was looking for secrets. The Dark Ages is on my playlist since it was on sale a while ago. I found the secrets even in Eternal to be extremely obvious… like just turn a corner and the “secret” is right there in plain view

Sounds like they could cut the fat and make it a visual novel with cutscenes

I find LLMs produce the best output when I give them a stupid backstory to set the mood:

The inspiration for this code module is “I’m hungry but too tired to get off the couch”. You just got home from work and are exhausted and sit down, but can’t get up now. You should have eaten dinner first. You put on the TV and watch something. All channels have been replaced with the cooking channel. Someone is making pizza next door. You sit back and doze off, dreaming of mozzarella mattresses and pepperoni pillows. Eventually you wake up from your nap, just perky enough to put on a microwave pizza. It’s almost as good as you imagined, but you burn yourself again because you’re impatient. Your boss asks you to make [insert code change here]. You procrastinate a bit, but eventually do it just before going to bed.

I remember having to download games bit by bit (heh) over 2 weeks

My cat was confused at first, then realised this was a really fun game where he can finally reach the flies. But he just kind of bats them around for fun like they’re an elaborate cat toy. I didn’t even realise it was possible to deal nonlethal 0dmg to a fly. I still do it sometimes, but he’s so useless at killing things 😂 literally wouldn’t hurt a fly

Yeah true. But I could also just buy the not-used pillowcase instead of going on a biohazard side-quest

I have several disabilities, and they deliver stuff I need to my house; no questions asked, no fuss, no new accounts, no sign up form, no mailing lists I didn’t ask for, no additional data leak attack surface, no delivery fee, no weird obscure delivery service that takes 4 weeks, no difficult return process (though I wouldn’t personally return an opened pillowcase).

My next best option near me would be something like BigW. However, I just checked, and they don’t even have any pillowcases in cotton unless I go through their “marketplace” third party system. At which point it’s basically just an Amazon seller but worse.

If anything else was as convenient or good, I’d use it; believe me. But it’s just not a thing for me, in my area. Also of course I’d go shopping in person, but I can’t, for various reasons.
