Havn't even read the article, am not even part of this group. just want tot say that lemmy.world/all is a wierd thing to wake up to in the morning.

When I used our dial in modem for the first time, I never would have guessed id be drinking my coffee casually wondering about alpaca sex.

But here we are

Listen.

When I just wake up I need sustenance but my motor skills are as low as my brain fog is high. I -am- however functional enough to press the "make coffee button" and slap a spoon in a container of yogurt.

Yogurt and decaf* coffee are nice, but not enough to keep my 100+KG of pure overthinking going for long. Luckily, while sipping on my coffee I can knead dough, so by lunchtime I should have fresh bread. (or stale bread from the day before)** What goes on the bread has been decided mostly in my youth, has been altered when I moved on my own, and these days only gets tweaked... it works, why fuck with it.

Dinner has been planned over the weekend so when evening starts and my brain is all cooked out, but my motor skills are at its peak, cooking up some pasta/rice/potato dish with veggies should be easy. Anything more involved is for occasions where I have time to be invested in cooking. On weekends I cook bulk for the days where I don't function, so my freezer is stuffed with all sort of 1 pan dishes.

Within these variables I eat fairly varied, but you really don't want to be around when I am forced to change them on short notice. EG; when I forgot to get yoghurt, it might take me untill mid afternoon untill ive recovered ^^"

it took me about 15 years to work this system out, but by george I have finally mastered eating 3 meals a day.

*Don't give me regular, apocalypses have been started over less.

**Im working on baguette dough so I can make it the day before so i can portion better and don't have to knead in the morning)

agree, I do have some other things in my feed, but I'd definitely say the algorithm has certain preferences.

Probably has to do with most of my interests being pretty nice compared to 'ooh pretty girl'. So when it compares what I click on it's easier to find high frequency recommendations based on other peoples likes. I know fuck all about the algo that makes feeds, but my guess is that's how it works.

I remember going for a walk with a friend midwinter, underestimating the distance, overestimating the temperature (i mean, it -was- snowing, but that meant nothing... right) So we went out in our tshirts and shorts.

In the end, my mum spent 2 hrs trying to turn 2 goth smurfs back into human boys. I'd say I learnt a lesson that day, but one must not tell lies.

My house sadly isn't a house, but it's a house!

maby I should have googled '/s' first... :') At least we now know 31 is NOT the charm.

[-] Horrible_Goblin@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

Nah :'), at least not the first 30 or so times i tried. Maby 31 is the charm.

[-] Horrible_Goblin@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

Oh, yeah that fixed it!

27

I -was- going to find a community who might help me with my problem, but then I found this place and it's obviously much more constructive to bitch about it than to actually try to fix it. Shame on me for not seeing that right away.

So my HDD died on me, and after some fussing around I ordered a shiny new replacement. So after waiting for the mailman like a proper doggo, I installed my shiny new toy, booted my pc and... on of my monitors now doesn't work.

I don't know why. I tried a new hdmi-cable, I tried a new monitor. my 2nd monitor works perfectly. I updated my drivers and tried a handstand. nothing. For the rest my pc works fine. The new hard disk works like a charm. But why doesn't my monitor work? If I fix it, will my mouse stop working?

I will still chill and play games tonight, but I will be mildly furiously staring at the black screen next to it every chance i get.

lol I fled here from 9gag. Either y'all are extremely nice, or I have been suffering from Stockholm syndrome for the last decade. :')

Probably both
