  • I’ll give you my dilemma: would you rather have constant noise that is not in your control? or would you rather have constant noise in the form of music that you enjoy? thats my case in school and the case of many others in cities, where its a choice between the sound of crowds (with occasional shocking loud noises) or music you can control. one is far less stressful at the end of the day










  • Alright, absolute noob here, I’m not particularly interested in computer science or an OS I have to obsessively research. First, how is gaming on Linux nowadays? I play a lot of games, most of which are not triple-A, so I wonder how accessible this is. Second, what distributions are accessible and still customizable? I have all kinds of peripherals I’d like to be able to use, speaker systems, midi controllers, etc.


  • the sensors aren’t placed on desks, you can see that the displays are placed outside of bathrooms because that’s where kids generally vape. my high school has sensors inside the bathrooms on the ceiling and they don’t work. you’re thinking of a scenario that’s incredibly difficult and costly to implement, I assure you no district would be willing to hook this bullshit up to EVERY DESK. the term “Simon’s desk” here is likely just a name for one of the sensors they used to test this concept, with the sensor being located at the desk of a developer named simon

    got really tired of the “-core” haters, they seem to get upset only at the naming convention because hardcore influences often make a subgenre even heavier

    like have you ever heard of mathcore?? that shits peak, its one of the noisiest subgenres i know AND it has hardcore influence

    gatekeepers can stay mad




  • id argue a police officers job is hard in a police state as well,

    i of course agree with acab but i also think its worth empathizing with officers whose mental health has been ruined by their training (see That Dang Dad on youtube who WAS a police officer and still experiences the pain of his “training”). theyre trained to be afraid and see danger everywhere, which is fucked, and as such being a police officer is not a job with 0 drawbacks. we all hate police, i sure as hell do, but no one should be trained to live in permanent fear, seeing murderers in everyone.


  • politely, i think you messed up

    speaking as someone who gets horribly anxious in similar situations, being flirted with is one reliable way to take it from anxiety to panic attack

    i think of the consent system of bdsm in situations like this, where crying should be interpreted as someone saying red light or another safeword. when tears are involved, or someone is disturbed in that way, (for lack of a better way of expressing this) fuck your emotions. turn off everything but the parts of your brain that handle caring for someone.

    since you’re here, i dont think this is hopeless at all though, youre willing to change and want to understamd what you did wrong. i commend you for that, and i hope you remember the “red light” idea for next time something similar happens.
