Its so liberating to just accept this mindset everyhwhere. I personally feel so comfortable voting with my wallet I don’t even feel a sense of missing out anymore.

Yeah watch me not deny it tho; I intended for it to be snarky and anticipated this impact.

I’ll counter your anectdote with my own. Every single Linux community member I have encountered on my journey to use this as a daily driver (arch BTW) has been incredibly helpful.

Intention vs. Impact, look it up.

I downvoted because of the snark in first paragraph.

Yeah fuck this guys (OP, not the person I’m replying under) take. Hobbies need less gatekeepers and if I want to do research about gear, make nice purchases as a way to deepen my investment into the hobby so be it.

Example: I just got into fitness. I have almost no need for some of the products ive been buying, however through the research ive stumbled across some excellent articles and a few YouTube channels that inspire me. Even if the gear / gadgets do nothing more than inspire you to show up and try them out, its worked.

Unpopular opinion: HDR is overrated and causes more eye fatigue.

No idea, not the Dev and dont even know what product this is lol… Go read the thread 🤙

Read the thread they said they have provided appimage for years.

Agree on the flatpak part tho, that would have solved this issue.

No shade at peeing sitting down or the shower, but the sink!

Dont understand why people dont just become stall enjoyers. Hot take: urinals suck.

Did you even watch the video?

This particular streamer is terrible. There are plenty of great ones; dont lump them all together.

Oh yeah sorry, was not trying to present the process as positive…blood should not be circumventing the liver.

Yes medications have potential side effects, but HBP meds have been around for decades, are well studied and shown to be preferable versus the known outcomes of untreated hypertension.

Hypertension will fuck you up way more than taking an additional medication will. On the topic od the liver, It actually causes new blood vessels to be made to circumvent the liver which leads to more waste in bloodstream not being filtered out.

I mean, can’t you just take HBP meds?

Yeah sure, medication can help!

I have found that if the meeting is actually quick (sub 20 minutes) rebounding is not as difficult. When the “quick meeting” turns into a check in + “do we have time to talk about…” + any other number of meandering paths a meeting can travel down, I’ll have a hard time getting back into task mode.

Something that helps me is to take a walk right after those meetings. Helps me reset when I get back to my desk.

Not wasting energy explaining this to you. You’re clearly incapable of engaging with a disagreement which has lead you to double down and move a few goalposts around.

All criticism of your original point was done respectfully, its really not my problem if you can’t just acknowledge you misspoke in the first post… Its downvoted like 20+ times man. What other evidence do you need that maybe you didn’t communicate your thoughts clearly.

Hey man don’t take it personal that we disagree with your original point…if you meant to say something else, fair enough, but we all posting / responding to the OP which was more broad than what you are saying now.

Additionally, my response was more about quality of materials which may incrue extra costs and had nothing to do with buying over priced designer stuff. I agree with your new point, but thats not what you said initially.
