nobody told me The walking dead was so lame
let's start why is lame
-white male unkillable "badass" lead protagonist hooks up with the most african negress imaginable
-beta male chink has a relationship with the country side white chick who looks like a model
-irish ginger chad hooks up with a mexican latina
-white dudes who are lovers aka gays
-white men who are shown as evil bigoted and racist
-niggers shown as emotionally vulnerable despite being 6 feet gorillas
-subplots that don't matter and add nothing to the story
-overacting
-gay drama
-overacting
-senseless gorefest
-overacting
-dumb cannibalism for no fucking logical reason
-characters whose death mean nothing
-overacting
-senseless gore
that's the loop and mix it with gay nigger shit and meaningless tropes and subplots and characters
also that's just the top off my head from what I remember

The Walking Dead just felt tedious and hard to get into for me. None of the characters were likeable and the show last way too long imo.

I always played around with it in a very disengaged, uncommitted manner. Well, on September 2nd, just a few days ago, I decided to really learn Linux to the point I could truthfully add to my resume to help me find a position somewhere. For that reason, I picked Ubuntu, possibly the most popular, all-purpose Linux distribution out there. I began doing the edx's version of the Linux Foundation's Introduction to Linux course because of the bells and whistles they have there in terms of exercises and whatnot. Unfortunately, they peppered the whole course with unbelievably idiotic mini videos geared towards morons. Imagery of douchebags with designer haircuts typing away at a laptop with some coolcorp background and annoying music.

So I said fuck it, and instead I decided to read the Linux Bible. But then I found out there's an Ubuntu Linux Bible by the same author, and so that's what I'm reading now. Straight to the point, concise, has exercises, not as many as I would like, but I can come up with variations on my own. Today is the third day I'm following the book, and I intend to make a daily post, briefly talking about the stuff I've learned on that day.

The first day was pretty much just going through the fluff. What Linux is, history of Linux, Unix, GNU, what open source is, etc. That's the first 20 pages of the book's 718 pages.

The second day I read about the X Window System, desktop environments, GNOME desktop, Nautilus file manager, and ways to run Linux (live medium, permanent install, etc.). The exercises consist of messing around with the GUI pretty much, something you would naturally do in a fresh install of an OS. I also had to install Ubuntu because I was running Windows. I got lucky because Ubuntu 24.04.1 came with some broken packages for Nvidia drives, and that of course fucked my shit up, which was a very excellent opportunity to do some tinkering and learning. I got it to work, it only took me an hour or so. I read people saying this is the most broken Ubuntu update in years, which I take as a good sign for my timing. And then I broke Light Locker while changing to Xfce as my desktop environment.

Anyway, third day, today, I finally reach the meat of the book and begin messing around with the shell, trying different commands, pretty simple stuff, whoami, pwd, ls, cd, command syntax, hyphenated options for command's behavior, locating commands, and really, just getting comfortable to mess around in the termPost too long.

i am not even 10 years in myself. recently i have been solving most linux problems with brave ai, i wish this existed when i started because i have solved dozens of problems and understood stuff i was curios about since the beginning. having a place to turn to with problems like that is really helpful. if i can help let me know though i would assume most of you newcomers are way better at solving stuff like that with ai then i am. what i might be good at is ergonomics. i can make a linux machine feel good and tailor it because i have bothered to look into all the little options in the sub menus.

currently i am playing with bash scripts to automatically create and move text files so i can juggle them around fast.

another thing that i think is really interesting is that there are these lightweight ULTRA PREMIUM BUSINESS CLASS laptops (like the lenovo thinkpad x1 carbon gen6) available on the used market with minimal configuration (8gb ram, 4 cores) for very low prices. they can't be upgraded for the most part but they are a joy to use if you are frugal. similar hard to upgrade ultralight premium models not for laptops but for convertibles finally exist on the used market (like the lenovo thinkpad x1 yoga gen5) and they have a keyboard that can be folded all the way around so it is behind the screen when you are tired of laptop mode, leaving you with a touchscreen that has a garaged little pen so you get the actual touchscreen ant note taking experience in linux on an actual x64 computer that runs all the regular linux packages which i prefer to ARM processors.

yeah i think you'd be disappointed if you tried to use it in broad daylight/ sunshine. not using dark-theme helps but it is still a little disappointing and draws the user into the shadows.

because i have had it with this shit i am currently assembling a computer that uses an e-ink display as a monitor specifically for when it is very bright outside. i already have all the parts and just struggle with creating some kind of enclosure where everything can go inside.

other then that i really like the yoga and i don't care that the keyboard makes it bulky, i put it in a backpack anyways and it is light enough. it is a touchscreen tablet (even with drawing pen!) where you can get regular linux on, and not this stupid mobile ios/android babbies-first-computer modern consumer interface.

Coolio, my old Linux thread got bumped. Welp, since you guys brought it up I'll update my rig situation. I still have the server running on Debian. It's hosting a few services like Jellyfin, Kavita, Navidrome, Radarr, and a couple of others. I'm using Homepage running in Docker as a dashboard for that stuff, it's pretty neat. It's like having a computer for your computer. As for my actual computer, I'm currently using Arch with Niri, a Wayland compositor. Niri is really damn good btw, for everything except gaming apparently, though I have never had a problem with that. I've been using it for a couple of months now and I'm keeping a KDE Plasma setup handy just in case.

Recently, I set up Pi-hole on my home server to handle local DNS and block network-wide ads. Overall, I've been trying to maintain a very lean system and watch the installed packages like a hawk. I'm thinking about trying Nix, but if I ever get serious about it, I'll try to follow a tutorial to set up Linux From Scratch on an old laptop. That should be fun.

My big takeaway was probably in the water book where he talks about having a commanding gaze. He reccomends keeping your eyes from wandering and trying to survey an entire area without using your eyes. Theres a lot of Buddhist philosophy weaved into the text that sounds interesting at first but is just a bunch of nothing burgers dressed up like poetry that was fun to read too. I definitely wouldn't reccomend this book for someone who isn't in a career that would benefit from seeing life as a series of conflicts. Id like to meet someone who did learn something from this book. For me, I rarely interact with people, and if I do I benefit mostly from just being pleasant towards them. I dont generally have a lot of conflict in my life right now, so there wasn't a lot in this book that was applicable to me.

I remember reading this book together with the Hagakure when I was a teenager and going through that classic samurai phase. I guess I was hoping for some life advice, but instead I got a pretty straightforward manual on swordsmanship. There's some good (but basic) advice on things like footwork, etc. more than there is advice on life in that book.
And don't even get me started on the Hagakure. I was hoping it was going to be the Japanese equivalent of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (although I cam to dislike that book too) and instead I got a bunch of nonsense about the extremely contrived social etiquette of 17th century Japan written by a bureaucrat LARPing as a samurai.

Has anyone considered designing a board game as a hobby? I have been doing it for over a decade, well even arguably my whole life, even as a child. All I do is formulate rules and people can use equipment they have at home to play. Advantages are.

>anyone who is reasonably intelligent can do it
>you create a whole mathematical universe in a few minutes potentially, making it the greatest payoff/investment ratio of any hobby I would argue
>you can get famous even with a very bad and derivative game (not that we care about that kind of thing)

Feel free to ask me about how to make abstract games, however I only formulate rules, I know nothing about producing components, sorry if that is an area of interest for you

cool thread, i am hoping the future will be full of people like you who get to have the ability to stray from mass production and give the people taylor-made options preventing the mistake of mass culture producing identical people from ever repeating.

>Feel free to ask

what's the first thing you usually decide when you think up a game?

how'd you make a 2-player game for people who get bored after ~4 minutes so one round has to be shorter then that.

what's the longest game you think people would enjoyably play together because there has to be a number of hours at which it becomes a chore to stay awake even though tiredness sets in.

how'd you make a complicated game that can be played while walking in the woods (so no table, hardly any place to put something like a discard pile unless you wear cute little hard-holding or piece-storing backpacks/fannypacks, potentially only dimly lit)

how'd you approach making an easy game to be played while walking (drunk or high).

your thoughts remind me of something i am currently noticing: a distinct new type of ai-fueled nihilism and depression in which people are convinced nothing is worth doing because machines can do it better. this narrative might be the loud dramatic deathrattle of competitive people as they finally understood their breed (and soldiers have literally been bred though people get nervous when this is discussed) will be made obsolete by machines.

My problem with a lot of these "designed" boardgames is that a lot of them are just "chess but the pieces move different". Now I'm not huge into the boardgame design scene, so I'm sure there's some innovation, but that's sort of my impression as a dilettante. Another thing is that there's often times no digital versions of these games which makes trying them out nearly impossible. So, it reduces the game to an intellectual curiosity rather than a proper game you can actually play and invest your time in.

Does anyone here struggle with alcohol, or have managed to quit?

It used to be a good coping mechanism for me, but it seems the older I've gotten the worse it feels, and it's become detrimental to my health and the way I behave around people. Easily annoyed, constantly starting shit, tired all the time, strange pains. And I was still getting worse, fast.

This has been a wake-up call and I'm realizing I need to quit before it's too late. Though that's easy for me to say now when I'm still feeling bad, and I fear the cravings will come back strong, but I know I've got to try.

Curious to hear others experience with this.

I try and try like I really do to be a wizard but unfortunately keep heading into becoming a crab. As someone who can't afford to NEET and will just die on the side of the street if I do so, I have to unfortunately go out into the real world and try to get a job and maintain a "social life".

And that is the worst part about it, I simply don't get it, a friend of mine wanted to meet another friend and he wanted me to go to club with me, now why did I agree? Because I wanted a referral for a job. Apart from that clubs in my country are horrendous for sub-3 men like me because they don't let people like me enter because of "dress code" when in reality you look ugly, short, singly, and the whole nine yards.

I got a referral so that's a good thing if it materialises into a job. But what I saw in club is not something that I have not known but to see it happen it still caught me like a deer in the headlights, basically I knew that this friend of friend is going to be a piece of shit because he is a club-goer.

But when I saw him literally just go up to a bitch and started making out with her continuously then going to the toiled and then coming back, and then actually showing me his Instagram and Snapchat about fucking a succubus 5 times one day, and fucking 10 different succubi in 10 days and sharing nudes on Telegram by starting out with the message "New Pussy around my Dick.".

God bless him for giving me the referral which probably won't materialise into a job but for some reason I wish I never met him, I saw a weird kind of primal expression on the faces of succubi, the man was 6'4 and had a chiseled face. And when I came back home I swear to god, I couldn't drive the car straight. Like I was about to crash 3 times, not because I was driving fast, but I was so pissed and my mind was just thinking about like what the fuck? I had to struggle for every single ounce of thing in life, and there are guys like this who just do what? Fucking exist?

Honestly, at that point years of thinking "I am never going to think about cunts" and months of trying to be a fucking monk only to enter a state of ragebait, I swear to god, when I returned in the night I was awake for a total of 48 hours just raging like a mad man and screaming into the damn mattress. Like what the fuck? How in the blue hell is it so easy for these kind of people? And this guy has cheated on every single cunt who was his GF. And has fucked over 40 succubi litePost too long.

no exercise because of no motivation? you have cause and effect confused.

no motivation because of no exercise. motivation is a nervous system state that unlocks after a certain amount of electricity is available. in times of low electricity (which is the state your body is currently in) there is not enough voltage to create it.

your body generates electricity through muscle activity, your muscles are piezo electric, use them and they will create sparks that supply your body with voltage, thus restoring motivation.

i keep wondering if all fiction could be unhealthy for the brain. human life is so short, a day has so few hours. how can you take one or more of these hours and flee to a place that doesn't exist and disconnect from your own reality.

places that don't exist have begun to repell me. my own reality has so many projects i would like to attend to that i feel gridlocked by not knowing what to do first. desire for fiction might be nothing but pure idleness.

i assume i understand the impulse, though i could be mistaken. when i was a child and were forced to attend child prison (school), the idea of no longer being able to explore the world at my own pace and instead had to spend time with the violent conformist was completely depressing. have them judge my intelligence based on how hard i could force myself to care what they thought was important in their desperate attempt to turn me into a mindless soldier and stomp all my dreams and interests in the process.

i'd flee into video games and at least videogames are interactive. in a video game i can make decisions, in school i was but an inmate without agency. but in a movie about a super hero, there is no interaction, the poor fool who watches this is but the passive recipient of centralized propaganda. i don't see how someone would accept this premise and spend time on this.

you insist that this is a fact but there is more to it. that is one of millions of possible facts that you could have said, yet you chose this particular fact. it reveals your perspective that you foolishly think you can hide.

you behave like a child obsessed with pokemon, talking about little else and then when another kid wonders why you are obsessed with pokemon, you reply that the other kid is building strawpokemon because you never said that you were obsessed with pokemon and that it is a fact that his name is pikachu.

>I chose to skip that wheel so I went straight to the reward, pure entertainment without the unnecessary normalshit struggle.

the eagerness with which you try to repeat your nihilism does not match how undesriable and effortlessly available what you are trying to establish is. nobody is looking up to squidward and wonders how he achieved this difficult and impossible task to be this pessimistic and dead inside. solving a puzzle with 4 pieces is easy to most people so talking about it to others is not as fascinating as you in your struggle for attention and recognition would hope. pessimism is easy and boring, you wont find many subscribers (which of course you will insist you don't care about. you would do anything to prove that you have nothing to prove.)

what you are trying to do despite being in denial so much is obvious. if you were interested in more things instead of insisting everything is pointless and doomed, you would have more things to talk about and you would have more to offer to other people. it would result in you being able to carry your weight and not always feel like you are talking uphill, people would be genuinely interested in listening to you instead of considering it a chore. your entire reason for needing respect, hierarchy and pretense would evaporate and you could finally stop acting like a soldier that fights for nothing.

normalfags don't work hard so that when they die something magical will happen. They do it because they want a house and a wife and kids and all that shit. This is all driven by basic instinct. Getting that shit makes them feel good. They are just motivated by the feel good juices, same as you are. The act of watching fantasy or fiction simply simulates the experiences of getting those things, but it is just a simulation and therefore a pale imitation. It will never release as many feel good juices as the real thing.

If you're really just trying to experience euphoria, just do drugs. Or better yet get a surgical implant to directly stimulate the reward center of your brain. Then you can die in ecstasy having achieved your goal.

you don't need outside help to feel good as a human, it is built-in. my guess is you were just bullied, shamed, tortured, abused and/or punished every time you were about to empower yourself so you ended up never looking inside.

the moment you 'successfully' meditate and feel that self-generated bliss exists for anyone who is genuinely looking for it, you will understand that technically you can never be rewarded, it is just something you play along politely and never question. the concept of reward can only makes sense within depression.

A slightly unusual hobby for a wizardly man, but I've always had an attraction to it.

What I like about it is the extremely large variety of tricks that can be learned. It's like the Path of Exile skill tree in the sense you can pick a direction and learn that way. You can build up your foundations, or you can go the straight and narrow all the way to learning your favorite trick. The large variety of tricks also mean there are a ton of easier ones to learn, and learning these tricks provides such a strong feeling of accomplishment.

Cruising is very nice too, I intent to get a bigger old school board with soft(?) wheels for nice and easy transport.

The art on skateboards is also quite nice, there's something for everyone. Also you can buy blanks and draw on it yourself. I think the level of creativity in all aspects of this hobby is so amazing.

All things skating related welcomed, I'll try my best to answer with great care to everyone.

Thank you for participating

Excuse me, this is the anime t shirt discussion thread!

The time slowing down is real. Very crazy thing to describe to someone who has never experienced it. Also have you noticed when you slip during walking for example, you can automatically just rebalance yourself far better and very naturally? I can slip and my upper body remains so still.

>Excuse me, this is the anime t shirt discussion thread!

i haven't even read the thread yet, i just post and turn into a ghost woooOOOOooo

>The time slowing down is real. Very crazy thing to describe to someone who has never experienced it. Also have you noticed when you slip during walking for example, you can automatically just rebalance yourself far better and very naturally?

yeah i did notice this as well. skating as the art and love of movement. just trying to master some of it trickles into everything even slightly physical and improves it: from getting up off chairs better, to balancing unwieldy stuff with ease, to the way you normally walk on foot, to how it sounds when you type the keyboard, to quick reactions to prevent or reduce accidents in traffic even those you aren't even involved in, to being so mindful around careless people that you can anticipate when they fuck up so you are ready to help because you saw it coming so much earlier then everyone else. an incredible life-affirming chain-reaction concentrated care and attention into movement can start. i do believe normies think skating is vanity for lazy stoners but it is deep immersion into practical physics and so many people could benefit from it.

>I can slip and my upper body remains so still. I could hold a glass of water and not spill a single drop.

nice. you might find this interesting after i went running with my 70 year old father he slipped and broke his arm. he recovered and i taught him how to snakeboard after it and now a few weeks ago (8 years later) he slipped and fell again. this time nothing broke, he even said he felt the time slow down and he did manage to fall way better and distribute the energy of the fall without breaking or seriously hurting anything.

I've even noticed the way I change direction is based off sliding my feet, it must look like I'm a salsa dancer or something. I am just practicing body varials as it allows me to do 180s and still land in my regular pose! I don't really have much interest in learning switch. That seems way too hard to do. Skating is very high tech and if it weren't for the higher risk of injury it would be good for everyone to get into. It's a full body workout just like swimming.

Your father is very cool and blessed to be so physically and mentally sharp at that age. Very cool.

I think so as well, I mean I've had 15 years skating/bmxing experience over the years and I took most of it really slow. I've had bad falls but it was when I decided to advance to the next level, or it was a freak accident. I just overthink a lot, and see a few bad videos and it torments me. When I was around 18 or so I just didn't care, I remember I was considering killing myself as I was not taking the workplace well. I still remember posting here in the wagey threads in 2015 or whenever that was. God what a shit time, sadly things aren't much better I'm just a little more hardened and accepting of fate.

It's interesting, nothing has changed for me either but somehow I feel much better. At your age I felt pretty much like you do, but not long after I turned 30, I just calmed down. It was like I finally just got used to being me. I accepted I am a loser and I'm not going to change. Once I stopped trying to change and be more like the normalfag my parents wanted me to be, it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I used to always hear people talk about how great it was to be in their 30s and scoff because I knew it wouldn't happen to me. And it's true, I haven't gotten more money or independence from my parents, and yet somehow it's better.

I think when you're young there is all this pressure on you to become someone other than who you are currently. It's the whole point of growth as a young person. Eventually though that will go away and you can just be. You're doing art now with the feeling that you have to get better and become something. Once you give up all illusions of grandeur you may rediscover your passion for doing it for its own sake and you may end up finding yourself making more progress than you did when you were putting lots of pressure on yourself.

It's weird, I also feel much younger now than I did in my late 20s. I think it's because psychologically I've started to compare myself more to middle aged people rather than young people. When you're an elder young person you feel old because you haven't hit the developmental milestones you're supposed to have hit. Once you're middle aged though, you look around you and realize, I've got another 20-30 years of wage slavery middle aged life to look forward to, and in that phase of my life, I am just starting out. So what if I haven't become a success? I've seen people 10 years older than me make a complete career change. It feels like there is plenty of time. In your late 20s you feel like there is no time because somehow turning 30 without having "made it" feels like a death sentence. Then that supposed death sentence comes and goes and you're still fine and you realize you're gonna keep on being fine.

I also hate wage slaving though and I have mostly done everything I can to minimize the amount I have to do. I alternate now between living with my parents and wage slaving as a handyman off and on and living on public land in a tent. I am trying to change this to living in the tent full time. If I can figure out the income part of it I would do it in a heartbeat and only come home every once in a while to visit and collect important pieces of mail.

Recently I've been getting into photography. I've found that after doing so, I perceive moments in different ways. Things simultaneously seem more transient, yet more permanent. It's a sensation that's difficult to describe, except to say that I am more 'aware' of the moments around me. For obvious reasons I have avoided urban areas, but in terms of landscapes and natural shots, it is quite peaceful.

Any photography hobbyists here?

I've decided to take up wildlife photography as a way to live my life to the fullest while living in a tent on public land.

I just bought an Olympus E-M1X used and an "open box" Panasonic Lumix G VARIO 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 lens to go with it.

I decided on the micro four thirds form factor simply because the super telephoto lenses are significantly smaller and cheaper due to the 2x crop factor from the smaller sensor. The 100-300 is essentially what a 200-600 on a full frame camera would be. They also make lenses with significantly more zoom than that all for less than comparable sony, nikon, or canon lenses.

The olympus bodies are especially well weather sealed which I desired. This lens was the cheapest weather sealed supertelephoto lens I could find. I think the larger body of the E-M1X should help it balance well with large zoom lenses.

I still want a 12/13 mm wide angle lens for landscapes but I might wait a while to buy one because the camera + lens I just bought cost me almost $1200 after tax. This is not a cheap hobby sadly. I will report back after the camera arrives and I've had a chance to use it.

You can get a speedbooster. It's an adapter to put larger sensor lenses on smaller sensor bodies, with a corrective element to scale the full field of view down without any vignetting. It also results in more light reaching the senor overal, which is where it gets its name. There are decades of full-frame Canon ultrawide primes on eBay that get boosted to something like f0.95.

I shoot video on MFT and I find that the MFT versions of new lenses are always a bit cheaper for some reason.

 No.71050

Interesting, never heard of a speed booster before. I had been eyeing the 200mm f/2.8 to use with the 1.4 and 2x teleconverters as a potential upgrade path down the line. From what I'm reading it seems the speedbooster is pretty much like a teleconverter but in reverse. The more I learn about the MFT form factor the more I like it. It truly is versatile.

>The more I learn about the MFT form factor the more I like it. It truly is versatile.
That's a common consensus. APSC sensors are bigger but their current issue is that cameras using them try to cram as many megapixels as possible over its real estate. The end result is smaller texel size which means each pixel is fueled by less light, culminating in a darker image with poorer dynamic range. My BMPCC4k is MFT but it only needs to spread a 4096x2160 image over that sensor so the images just glow straight off the camera.

The Rokinon 12mm is a good ultrawide I use and I hear good things about the (older) SLRMagic 8mm video lens. The former is a photograpy lens so it's sharp. What's nice about both of these lenses is that they're ultrawide but with glass that physically corrects the barrel distortion, so you don't get the severe fisheye effect.

I hope you see many cool birds and other wildlife in your tent adventures

Thanks for suggesting the rokinon. Seems like exactly what I need. I shouldn't need autofocus for landscapes after all. Part of me wonders if it is actually worth it though when my phone is so good at landscapes already.

Thanks too for the well wishes. I reciprocate them and hope you enjoy videoing whatever you're trying to shoot.

Why don't you have a tulpa, anon?
You can cheat yourself out of loneliness by fostering a loving relationship with an imaginary friend.

Benefits of a tulpa,
>You can choose any shape or form for her.
>You will never feel alone.
>She will always show unconditional love.
>She will always follow you around.
>You can have sex without losing your virginity powers or contracting STDs.
>Costs absolutely nothing.
>Basically the 'ultimate' form of a waifu.
The only negative is the social stigma, which you can easily avoid by not revealing your powerlevel.

It was the best decision of my life. It feels so good to have someone take care of you, compliment you and physically comfort you.

Most guides are terrible. Just interact with them as normal and impose them into your real world vision with your imagination.

What you put in is what you get out of it.
The more you interact with a tulpa, the more she'll feel like an actual person.

>How close is it to genuine schizophrenia?
Not close, at all. The connection is only brought up because of hallucinations (which is far from sufficient to diagnose schizophrenia).
I'd wager 99% of tulpamancers don't normally hallucinate. This is somewhat of a misconception pushed by early guides.
