Don't? It's a gift. Why tip? If they expect you to then that's hypocrisy on their part.

Pandora's Box is already open. Might as well make use of it.

 

Ten minutes ago, I was watching the moon while listening to music. Specifically, "My Castle Town" by Toby Fox. And I just started crying. Tears of joy. I realized just how much I enjoy living. The pretty view of The Moon, the beautiful melody...

I never had any bad things happen to me. I love my parents because they are loving and kind, no trauma whatsoever, had depression once but I sent it away shortly. Lots of hospital visits though. But nothing serious. No girlfriends, no love pains etc.

I have basically nothing in my hands right now. But I'm always able craft new hobbies when I run out of them. By the mere power of imagination. In fact, I'm looking to learn French now because English was easy as fuck.

But while I enjoy life very much, I realize that I begin to distance myself from those that do not think the same. For instance, one of my friends never takes any joy from anything that he does. Say; complains about not having a girlfriend, being ugly etc. etc. He's the most handsome person I've ever seen in person. And girls just straight up lust over him. Yet, he insists on focussing on the negative. Which makes zero sense to me. Why is he ruining his own life by refusing to see the good?

Now I do realize that most people are not as lucky as me to be with absolutely no problems in their lives. However, I had the "basic" set of problems that men my age have. Those being:

  • Like a girl but she rudely refuses you (or even insults)
  • Argue with parents

And my "friends" are always so offended by these problems all they do is complaining about them non-stop. One even tried to kill himself over a girl. I genuinely can't warp my head around this. Why? When I encountered these things I never cared or at worst deluded my way out.

Why can't people just sit down and appreciate life? When I'm sitting down waiting for something, the mere ability to move my limbs seems fascinating to me. I get out of so many things.

Don't get me wrong I don't mean any of this as seeing myself above others. (Although I do have a massive ego.)

Meanwhile, I will watch the Moon.

Say something about the Big C and you get hit with a message from admins.

There's only one answer. What's the point of this question? The only people that would want total wipe out are the ones that say stuff like "Humanity is a cancer on the world I shall go and do a clean-up!".

That's an even better idea! A steady income is much better than donations that may or may not arrive. Thanks for the idea, appreciate it!

I use this a lot and love it a lot! The ROMs it emulates are very powerful calculators.

Also, there is a new project that brings Qalculate! to Android. You can find it somewhere here. It's also a powerful calculator and is more integrated to the system because it's not emulation.

Portal 1 and Portal 2.

Portal 2 also has coop.

The discomfort is not worth it.

Yeah that's constructive criticism. "Your app is ugly, UI is laggy, the design is inconsistent" What else do you want? Drop code snippets? You clearly do give a shit judging by how triggered you got.

And how is calling it ugly an invalid reason? The app looks ugly.

 

I'm really proud of this one and think it's near completion.

 

You know how sometimes in a show or a movie there is a character that has a "radio friend" that they talk to? Yeah that's what I want to do.

But I do not know how to so I came to ask you! Cheap, preferably.

Out of curiosity, I found this app on IzzyOnDroid, (which gave me the idea in the first place) Codec2Talkie that seems to be what I'm looking for but I'm unsure due to my ignorance.

A radio modem seems to be required as the app description dictates. I can find one somewhere no issue. But is this the correct approach? Is there a better way that I don't know of?

 

EDIT: Thanks everybody for the suggestions! You've been great help to me.

I'm getting prepared for my computer science degree in college but pretty behind in the related classes. What are the best resources out there? Preferably in English as my native language resources are shit at explaining the basics.

I'm currently studying in Khan Academy but was wondering if there are somethings I'm missing out.

NOTE: I am NOT in college yet. I'm trying to get in college now. So the stuff I'm looking for is high school stuff.

EDIT: Yeah... bad idea. Got it.

I've been thinking about this for while. Sometimes there are situations where I have to log into one of my accounts temporarily to look at or take something and logging in is usually a pain in the ass or straight up uncomfortable.

So my idea is that this feature will allow to temporarily share/relay the cookies stored in the mobile browser that are used to remember logged in accounts (login credentials?) over a secure wireless or wired USB connection to use with the desktop browser (in a temporary container/session to not conflict with other users' data) in order to do whatever I do and then wipe out all data upon mobile device removal.

So... what do you think?

 

Until yesterday I used to have long hair. Due to unusually high tempetures I started having problems with the skin on my head. So, to avoid problems. I shaved it clean and it will remain that way until the skin in treated.

Now that I'm bald, I now know what's it's like. It sucks. My old hair suited me perfectly. It was messy just the right amount, perfect length, made me look different than the rest and handsome as hell. Every girl would look at me where ever I went to. Compliments floating over the air, jealous looks from other men etc. etc. It made me feel powerful.

But most importantly, it suited my personality and clothing. It was perfect! But now it's gone. I hate bald me. I will never look back at this bald version of myself.

It feels weird. I don't feel that bad but still it's disheartening.

 

I can't exactly make out what it says after the error code thanks to the mystery unicode characters but I will try my best.

"The package couldn't pass the updating, or verification."

 

Recently I installed Firefox on my parents' phones (uBlock Origin too) in order to make them surf the web more securely as we've had a few cases in the past with malware. (Google Chrome, the advertisement company's browser, does not like ad blockers. Wonder why?)

All they care about it is it openning Google.com and apparently they don't like Firefox's home screen. There are only options for "the last tab", "home screen" and "home screen after few hours of inactivity" but no option to go to a specific web address. In this case, google.com.

So... how do?
