I think the Jungian concept of the Puer Aeternus describes this very well.

On the other side, I notice that when I’m meeting up with friends, we sometimes get focused so much on the game, that we don’t really talk anymore about things going on in our lives. Sometimes that’s good, but if you are a person that finds it difficult to talk and focus on a game at the same time, it can be kinda frustrating.

I think the best option I’ve found is just volunteering in your neighbourhood and asking the people there if they go to any groups or want to do something together

Meetup used to be great, but seems to be enshittifying more with every passing day.

Are there good alternatives or other ways to find groups to join?

Awareness is only one part of mindfulness, you already got that, which is great.

The other part is equanimity, being aware of things, but not reacting or judging.

When you practice mindfulness, try to set a time goal of how long you want to do it and stick to it no matter what. If there are suddenly loud noises, or you suddenly feel very hungry, or you suddenly remember something important for work, just stick with the time you set. It’ll get easier over time.

Doing it frequently definitely helps with hyper-vigilance and being overly aware of things.

If you’re still interested to try and meet people, I would suggest still trying to meet up or go to locations with a bunch of people and check yourself.

How do you feel there, what do you notice, what makes you feel tired?

Very often you’ll find yourself overly alert, overly self concious, or simply not used to the experience. These all drain energy.

Try again and notice if it changes. Keep trying.

There are still people out there which aren’t zombified yet. And it’s still worth the effort to try and seek them out.

How would you even do this? Hilarious though.

For those that don’t know, this is from ‘The Sad Bastard Cookbook’. It actually contains some good simple recipes when you are feeling too bad to cook.

I feel the same about multiplayer games without gated progression and LAN server hosting. (Or local/splitscreen)

These days I can’t even play a multiplayer game with friends somewhere with shitty internet. And because of progression you have to force yourself to only play together, but never with different people or by yourself because then you will get ahead.

Spammers would love this feature. they’ll even pay for a subscription that makes your phone automatically pick up.

In the future, actual hacking will just involve social engineering corporate ai systems ( aka prompt hijacking )

I haven’t had any issues thus far. But I have not used a lot of appimages. Usually I can find everything in nixpkgs, and those that I didn’t all worked with appimages.

Looks a bit like mangosteen. But mangosteen is black with white fruit.

Something in the same family?

I think there should be another (perhaps hidden) panel where the guy on the left just chugs the entire cauldron in front of the witch, maintaining eye-contact.

This command will just run an executable file on nix. Normally only executables which are installed from the package manager will work.

appimage-run is another option. Which can be used to run, you guessed it, appimages

Using a language server like nixd also helps a lot with auto completing packages and options in your config.

Apparently people are also working on the nickel configuration language to address some of the nix limitations and difficulties.

450mb? Does it contain a lot of pictures/videos?

Thanks for sharing

All those things don’t work on immutable systems? I’m on nixos and I haven’t needed signing, but I didn’t know it was just not possible

notify-send 'command finished!' works pretty well
