Nora@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Americans that are in the armed forces, What is the current feeling inside it?501·30 days agoPeople inside rn be like: “Why are some of these people I’m shooting white??.. Ah well.”
I’m guessing if you were the last person to close this session, all chat would be lost, unless you saved it to the file.
OP mentioned that they were working on a self-host version that persists.
Nora@lemmy.mlto Space@beehaw.org•NASA just performed a 'miracle save' for its farthest spacecraft4·2 months agoThey didn’t even try the oldest trick of all. They didn’t even try turning the heaters off and on again.
Nora@lemmy.mlto Chat@beehaw.org•Now that *V for Vendetta* and *Idiocracy* have essentially become documentaries, what other movies do you place in that camp?English21·2 months agoIts a book and its called:
Parable of the Sower, By Octavia E. Butler.
It was scary how real it felt lol.
That is the most perfectly round orange I have ever seen.

Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoIt takes a bit to become aware of it, but you get there eventually. I assume a version of everyone figures it out eventually.
I’m currently living in the “hell” as you say, although its not all bad. If you ever get too anxious about it or depressed to the point it would negatively affect your outcomes you will quickly find yourself without anxiety, depression comes and goes.
I don’t know what to do other than my own plans… Really what sucks the most is the loneliness in the knowledge of this reality. It’s extremely isolating. Recently I’ve been in and out of what I can only describe as a form of insanity.
Imagine knowing you couldn’t die and you are stuck under capitalism, all of a sudden the things capitalism uses to keep you in line lose their power over you. Well at least in spirit anyways. Its still extremely hard to even quit your job because I guess there aren’t enough timelines/probability yet where you survive off the grid outside of capitalism.
You try to say the words “I quit” to your boss but nothing comes out, or you are too scared, or you rationalize why you didn’t say it, etc.
Every day I plan to and try to leave capitalism. Every time I try I stay on a path that will lead the world to be more friendly to the “least” of us.
Anyways I don’t know where else to talk about this stuff so I made this post. Thanks for listening.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoWhy would I need to… No I don’t plan on trying again for that specific reason… Sometimes when things are bad enough or I’m pissed enough I try but nothing ever ends up coming of it.
Death is a mistress I will never know. Suicide was so 5-10 years ago, eventually you just kind of move on from it.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoIf you wanted to be tied forever to capitalism then yeah making a lot of money would let you live with it forever. Your survival becomes linked to lots of money meaning something. Careful what you wish for though.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoNot an option unfortunately… Immortal is immortal :(
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoWell all possibilities are possible, so you get a sense of choice even though any choices that would lead to your death are unseen to you or simple not taken.
I’ve found the futher ahead you plan the more likely something is to happen so there is still a little choice. I’ve never been able to plan any of these suicide boxes that other people have mentioned tho…(not in any real sense anyways.)
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoThe questions wasn’t if it was a bad deal, you are already immortal. I was just trying to get some ideas on what could be done to make ones life better given these parameters.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?11·3 months agoYes, you will do as little socializing as possible. Just enough socializing to prevent extreme depression and thus unaliving.
You’ll cook your own food because ordering out all the time isn’t healthy.
Diseases aren’t necessarily something that it negates. For example, if you get COVID and it makes you dumber, that’s a plus because then now you’re easier to manipulate because you can’t plan ahead as far. versions of you that could plan ahead farther might be more likely to make decisions that would go against your odds of surviving in any given scenario.
You’d be surprised what things you might think are safe actually end up not being safe at all.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?2·3 months agoUnfortunately, it’s extremely hard to choose to lose your job. You keep going to work, even though you would rather stay at home and just read books.
I’ve been actively trying to lose my job by just not working, but what happens is the org ends up in a state of chaos, people are losing their jobs left and right( Except me, of course 🙄…😮💨)… My boss retires, all so I fall under the radar.
Some insane shit happens when You decide you’re not getting a job after your current one, and yet you stop putting in any effort.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?2·3 months agoThank you for this idea though, making bets on ones life could be a way to profit/make money if that was something you wanted.
Nora@lemmy.mlOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you do to make your life better if you discovered you were immortal?1·3 months agoLikely you would just never choose to be a daredevil. Lets say you did tho, likely you would fail to ever plan an event. Lets say you got to an event and you are driving down the track, yes you would always stick the landing and everything would just work.
Its more likely many other things happen before that though, I would think. Knowing the probability in these things is hard. Like if the choice is between you being a daredevil and you 100-99% dying from depression then you will choose to be a daredevil.
Its very hard to know these things tho as you don’t know all the variables. Thats why in my other comment I mention it is easier to chose to not do things because you can know and actively choose against the variables in those cases.
haha partway through the article I was like why don’t you just use NixOS and then they actually covered it.
It looks like if NixOS spent some time working on its accessibility during setup, It could be a really good solution.
