I've been trying out amanita muscaria microdosing the other day' because where I live people have been going crazy about it for a while now.
Well, I can see why. Basically, it is a natural jew pill. It kills off emotions rather efficiently, you feel sort of 'at ease' and can perform your wage slaving duties more efficiently.
But I can't actually describe the way I feel on it. It is neither bad nor it is good, not tense nor relaxed. Better than usually though. Plus I see rather very strange but fascinating dreams…

God damn internet problems for the past few hours. Had to reset my router and call the company to get it to work again.
Post history is wiped too. Now I will have to just remember what threads I was keeping a eye on and posted in.

I keep breaking my diet, my mind tricks me with "just one piece of chocolate" and it just ends with a slippery slope, does not help that my beloved mom keeps buying me treats very often and she is too retarded for me to explain to her how bad it is for me

>>316274
I really really need to enforce the idea of how much of a slippery slope/rabbit hole this carving is, there is no moderate option for me, at least not until i fully overcome my carving of sweets for a long time enough

have you seen the ugly irl?
i have not

I'm trying to quit sweets/dessert altogether.

At 19 I quit drinking cola because I was morbidly obese and started only drinking water. It was good and I lost a lot of weight but I developed an obsession with eating dessert after dinner in order to get my sugar fix.

Now I'm trying to finally stop that and quit eating sweet desserts altogether. I find it helps to create negative associations with the thing you're trying to quit. I heard that eating sugary things can cause kidney stones. So whenever I think about having dessert I think about massive pain in my urethra and that helps kill the cravings.

>>316289
I managed to get rid of my sweets addiction twice before in my life, but my third time is much harder for some reason, I am still confident I can do it, thank you for the input

wizards of the old continent,
let's chat

>>316332
what do you want to talk about

>>316333
im not sure, i havent thought this through

>>316334
well think about it and when you got something , tell me,

I've been with a headache for years, yesterday night I had clarity of mind and realized it.

>>316398
Drink plenty of water

>>314140
I found a nice way to overcome my sweets addiction, basically if i eat some sweets, I will walk 3 hours to make up for it, this will enhance my discipline greatly, I am a NEET, thus, I am up for it

Merry Christmas

friday morning
working…

After over 5 years of using a password manager, I have suddenly forgotten my master password.

For years I just typed it in using muscle memory. I didn't have to think about what I was typing.
But one day I randomly tried to remember the master password. Suddenly, I could no longer remember all the words, nor could I remember what order they were in. After this, relying on my muscle memory no longer worked.
I've spent hours trying to guess my password and I just can't remember it.

Ultimately I'm not TOO bothered by it. Lots of the passwords were for cock.li throwaway emails. A lot of the passwords are also for things like credit cart accounts and bills. And, since I've been broke and unemployed for a while, I don't really need those passwords anyway.
I kinda wish I could still log into Steam or Youtube, though.

>>316567
write them 'the passwords' on a piece of paper

>>316567
This happened to me too after a severe depression episode. I lost very important things that i still cant get back

>>316567
This is why I keep lightly coded notebooks as a hard copy backup for important passwords.

While it would be a liability if I was ever raided by a halfway competent investigator, I figure the risk of me forgetting a password was far more likely.
Besides a few hundred in bitcoin and passwords to embarrassing but legal activities I don't really have anything raid worthy password protected. Just accounts to normal sites n shit. So a hardcopy notebook is a good backup.

>>316567
>a password manager,
Lawdy

The only people who suggest using these are those who make money off of them.

>>316567
i had a similar situation and thought i was going crazy and lost everything. turns out the piece of shit password manager was just tricking me and telling me my password is wrong as like a security feature but they send you a confirmation email that you have to click because it's from a new ip. by they time i saw it, i was already locked out for trying to brute-force my own account because of course i was trying every reasonable combination. after i got it back, i just changed my password to a long passphrase and wrote it down in several places, as well as the security key for the decryption in case i lose the pass.

anyway, if you're truly locked out. just find a way to get back into your main email account and from there you can reset your password for all the other services probably. they usually have ways of getting in if you have a phone number attached or can provide proof of ownership like a receipt for a steam game.

>This is why I keep lightly coded notebooks as a hard copy backup for important passwords.
I should have done that. I used to do that, long ago!
Years before I started using a password manager, I had a "secret code" for passwords. I was really into playing japanese mahjong online, and so I would write down a winning-hand combination for every password. If I were to type in the abbreviations for every tile in order (like, for 234 of pinzu tiles, it'd be 2p3p4p), and THEN calculate the score of that hand and append the score to the hand, I'd have the password.

But even when I was playing mahjong several times a day, every day, I never was very skilled at calculating the scores, because the game does it for you. So some of my passwords had incorrect scores when I made them, which lead to lots of trouble for me.
And, it was very tedious to make these passwords for every single thing, so I gave up on that.
(now that I've mentioned this, I bet 1337 haxors across the globe are going to be updating their password databases to account for this! Probably not really but it'd be funny.)

>>316576
>>316583
Well it's an offline password manager, keepassx. It didn't cost any money, doesn't need to have an internet connection, and there is no online account attached to anything.
At this point I kinda wish it DID have an email account attached to it or something, to make up for my stupidity…

>>316576
But almost all of them are free and they are recommended by literally everyone in cyber security because humans can't realistically remember actually strong passwords.

>>316596
I have used the same ultra strong 25 symbol password everywhere it matters, and a 9 symbol easy to remember one for everything else.

The easier password has appeared in hundreds of hack-leaks since 2014 and not a single malicious person ever randomly picked out my password to log into a recipe website or a website for saving MMO builds.

Problem solved.
Besides, Macs and iPhones have had an encrypted fast password manager integrated forever which can also generate and save complex passwords automatically.

>>316599
>I used the same password everywhere
Dude no, you aren't supposed to do that ether.
There are more than one way to compromise a password than brute forcing it, and if it becomes compromised one place, if you used it somewhere else then they are all compromised.

>>316600
None of the places where I use the ultra strong passwords has
1. Ever been hacked or compromised
2. Allow login without two factor authentication.

I see literally zero reasons to use a separate pass.

Say someone somehow figures out my banking pass and user. Now they still need to figure how to get the #426th number on my physical verification list.

Even if they by pure dumb luck guess that 6 digit code, they still need to verify any outpayments with my phone number and banking app that has FaceID enabled.

Anyone who pulls that off just to take my $600 in savings is a literal god in human form and deserves it.

>>316567
I DID IT!
I DID IT I DID IT!!

I was driving home from the grocery store, running through the master password in my head. I could always remember word1 and word2 perfectly, but after that I couldn't remember if there were 6, 7, or 8 words total, and I couldn't remember which words WERE part of the password and which were not. I kept thinking of a few words like "open" and "february", for some reason, even though they were NOT part of the master password.

I also kept thinking of the word "battery", and kept thinking, "okay I KNOW that 'battery' is not one of the words".
But it ended up being word4, and once I randomly attached it to word3, suddenly the master password emanated right out of my fingers, with the vomited-force of twelve-and-a-half Hiroshimas and a few AM radio stations. The only known force to ever exceed the power of the ethereal, mental orgasm experienced not only by myself in this plane of existence, but by 800 different versions of myself in 900 parallel universes was the finger of God Himself while carving the ten commandments on Sinai.

Such an event as this has, no doubt, interrupted the fabric of continuity. In order for our reality to not be swallowed up in a black hole that most assuredly nearly manifested itself when my finger pressed the "Enter" key, many different universes formed themselves by necessity, each one where I was wrong or right for different reasons. In at least one of those universes, the electrical impulse from the "Enter" key on my keyboard spiraled through time and space to Dallas Texas in 1963, where it interrupted the path of the Magic Bullet and prevented the assassination of JFK. And, in that universe, the silver Half Dollar coin continues to bear the portrait of Benjamin Franklin.

>>316624
congratulations.

>>316624
Type it out here so you don't lose it

>>316629
Good idea. Everyone promise you won't read my master password:

what are you doing right now anones?

>>316669
I'm waiting someone to answer the questions I asked

>>316669
doomscrolling, will watch some math lectures and play some game later on tonight.

>>316669
Listening to news about the LA fires while getting ready for work.
Probably listen to another trashy web novel during my shift.

>>314140
I hate being outside on a long walk and having some random person who I don't even know (but knows me some how) trying to strike a conversation with me, it's like I need to run from them with sonic speed to avoid them, I hate social interaction, why can't i be left alone, sometimes it's some retarded subhuman trying to approach me for no apparent reason, i hate social interaction.

>>316676
It's part of the risk of going out.

>>316677
I need vitamin D, sadly.

>>316676
when strangers try to talk to me i pretend to be a deaf.

>>316679
Unfortunately I can't pull that since there is a school for the deaf not to far and a rather large deaf community around where I live, so knowing my luck they would start signing at me.
Headphones used to work, now it seems like people will still bug you and try to get you to take them off these days just to say some retarded shit like if they can get a cig (I don't smoke) or what hours the bus runs (I don't know), or if I found Jesus (he is at the taco truck, lol).

Know of any good wizard/crab films? Taxi Driver, Ghost Dog, etc.

A film that doesn't judge the character, or at least doesn't pretend that the wizard/crab's life is all of his own doing?

>>314140
I don't really have hobbies besides Youtube and videogames.

>>316716
Does this upset you or are you fine with it?

>>316716
some would argue vidya and watching Y.T is not a "hobby" because you are just consuming instead of creating something, anyways don't feel bad about it almost everyone is like you, don't pretend the average person does interesting things like drawing or swimming

>>316722
Right now I don't care. But will I in a few days again or in ten years?

>>316676
Do you live in a city or a big urban area? I live in a town and that's literally never happened to me, and I go on daily walks for about 40 minutes. Not so much as a peep from anyone.
