Thank you for sharing! I’m not bipolar but experience sleep problems, could be insomnia level but similarly learned to manage my brain activity and also follow a billion sleep rules. It’s much much better but still have episodes of not being able to sleep for a few hours.

I’m happy to hear you found things that are working for you, keep taking care 💌

home assistant is amazing but it is not yet an alternative to Alexa, the assistant/voice is still in development and far from being usable. it’s impossible for me to remember the specific wording assist demands and voice to text is incorrect like nine out of ten times. And this includes giving up on terrible locally hosted models trying out their cloud which obviously is a huge privacy hole, but even then it was slow and inaccurate. It’s a mystery to me how the foss community is so behind on voice, Siri and Google Assistant started working offline years ago, and they work straight on a mobile device.

imagine being confused that people do not enjoy mass produced drink made of lowest quality materials and prefer something that doesn’t taste like it has already been drank before…

also itt: people who think only IPA is craft beer. If you’re not into IPA, which is a matter of taste, you can just drink delicious craft lager and pilsner.

biased against cold weather

No shit, most people do not enjoy being perpetually imprisoned within walls and suffocated by clothes. You can’t chill in the park if it’s cold, you can’t swim comfortably, have to wear shoes even on the grass, skin cannot breathe, it sucks.

“walled garden” - how many 5.4” android phones can you name from the current decade?

Mine has to be Microsoft too because of aggressive bribing they did/do to destroy the chances of many countries and schools using Linux, and how they fragmented the unix ecosystem. Linux has always been a better choice and as soon as it was chosen, Microsoft would give significant bribes to the decision maker stupid enough to not realize that the entire organization is now hostage to pay for support for the end of their life as the os is too much of a garbage to maintain sometimes without secret insider knowledge.

I’m a woman but I’ve had this discussion with many guys and it’s honestly a universal experience. I’ve discussed it so much because as soon as you think about for a second you realize it it’s not a very intuitive and straightforward fact, it’s honestly a wonder so many people are so confident about the gender they were born with.

Can’t imagine how difficult your journey must be, sending you sincere warm wishes.

Wow that’s so true. I am cis and there is no way such a thought would cross my mind, it didn’t even when I had a years long identity crisis because I didn’t know yet how to connect with myself. And everyone I know about, regardless gender, has to contemplate for nanoseconds before a confident “no”. Downplaying the significance of when someone feels differently, even if it’s “light” or “neutral”, is ignorant and cruel. And I don’t even mean ignorant of a small minority, thinking about your own experience is sufficient to get the point.
