I sure hope so, vegetables were fine but we barely got any fruit this year. Trees bloomed early and suffered frostbite.

You haven't seen my garden and it's quite barren now that the vegetation period has ended for everything outside greenhouses.

Anyway, you deserve a pic so here is one from earlier this year.

Idk, gay rights in my country are expected to be decided in 1-2 years and I'm pretty sure we will not follow through with gay marriage if America doesn't. Why do I even care so much? I don't even know any openly LGBT person IRL, and just one Ukrainian! Am I too obsessed with Elon facing justice instead of a key government job offer?

I have a semestral project to work on and I've been failing to get anything done for weeks. I'm unemployable until I get better meds or something. Instead of staring at a screen fruitlessly all day, I guess I should just accept this failure and embrace your suggestion. Thank you very much.

Trump isn't worth this

He's a symptom of a greater problem. If a criminal incoherent populist can challenge a future-oriented centrist with decent moral standing except for one or two issues, even by popular vote, I don't see much hope for 21st century democracy becoming what it could be globally.

I still have some 5 decades left in my life (hopefully, if I get through this crisis) and everyone has been convincing me that a second Trump term will have a huge, lasting impact on the entire globalized world. You're telling me it's OK just because the terror would start on January 20 and not tomorrow?

Edit:

Fuck. I don't want to downplay your suffering if you're American, Arab or Ukrainian, an oppressed minority and/or female (I'm neither) but sometimes I feel like empathy is taking a toll on me. It's a huge weight to add to my mental problems. Thanks for the advice, I'm trying to get my parents on board with the "winding down" on the project while I try to get my mind off things and establish a schedule by trying to work in a help call center (I would have preferred manual labor but they are the only company hiring around that is large and evil enough I don't mind them losing money through my incompetence in the presumably short time I last).

Original comment content below.


I'm European but after doomscrolling on Lemmy, watching Last Week Tonight etc. I can't keep my calm over the US election, which is not helping my existing depression and suspected ADHD. The only good thing I did today was not eat much (I'm overweight) and 15 minutes of gardening. I can't keep todo lists because I'm really depressed over not having completing any meaningful item for weeks, and not even my long-abandoned passion projects spark joy anymore.

I'm afraid things will go very wrong for my mental state if Trump wins. I have two psychologists and a psychiatrist but I'm only meeting them next week. Please help me get my mind off this and maybe even get something done.

Pretty lame compared to the sex tent

[-] DirtyCNC@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 1 year ago

Right. Unless you mean their perspective, in which case I meant you, OP, you tricky little fella.

[-] DirtyCNC@lemmynsfw.com 8 points 1 year ago

It shows. The selection is not very good.

Europeans speak 1.5~2.5 languages each

US Americans seem like 0.8 with phrases like could care less or your a dick.

Sorry for the irrelevent post but Pirates weren't interested.

One of you can get a SkyShowtime voucher (see below).
As a consolation prize, the rest can watch Czech movies with English subs via Google Drive.

Status: 🟢 AVAILABLE

Ahoy, fellow lemmings!

I was gifted a SkyShowtime voucher for an electronics purchase but piracy is somewhat legal and easy in the Czech Republic, so I won't use it.

You'll most likely have to VPN into the Czech Republic to use the voucher but the (limited!) range of shows will be also available in English, Spanish, Polish or Hungarian. IDK if the UI language can be set. A dollar will also be blocked from your credit card but will be returned when you cancel the subscruption.

To claim the voucher, DM me your e-mail and "My Czech VPN is ready. I promise not to watch Deer Squad" so that I can make sure that you will be able to use it. The first person will be sent an e-mail with the code and instructions on how to redeem it. I will provide support if you encounter any issues.

Note that the selection of shows is limited and most are shit. Highlights include (not guaranteed to be available):

  • Shrek movies (all of them I think)
  • Madagascar (all of them I think)
  • Puss in Boots 1 & 2
  • Avatar: The Last Airbender
  • Spongebob Squarepants
  • The Office
  • Forrest Gump
  • Green Mile
  • Pulp Fiction
  • Dexter
  • Dr House
  • Schindler's List
  • Indiana Jones movies
  • The Birds (1963)
  • Inside Man (2006)
  • Land of the Lost (2009)
  • Nocebo (2022)
  • Mr. Robot (2015-2019)
  • Twin Peaks (1990-2017)
  • Billions (2016-2023)
  • Californication (2007-2014)
  • Heroes (2006-2010)
  • Frasier
  • Bates Motel
  • The Usual Suspects

Ahoj,

uloz.to + FreeRapid Downloader. The baseline speed of around 1.2 GB/h is enough for 720p and some 1080p movies which FreeRapid Downloader allows me to "stream" if I enable opening unfinished files. I can get a film running on my Linux HTPC (old laptop) <3 minutes after my family agrees on one (the hardest part). Our TV is rather small and 768p so resolution is not a concern but I sit close and like to enjoy at least 576p DVD quality.

I have qBittorrent installed but I am in no private trackers (yet). I would especially welcome one that has German dubs because original & Czech ones are easy.

I mean, AppleTalk would be a pretty good contender to TCP/IP if it wasn’t proprietary.
