  • Fair, the sitting characters pinkie finger is odd, but the lines are sharp so could be just a bad drawing.

    Squidwards arms are slightly at an unnatural angel, but not backwards. Pretty much the same just from the back.

    As for the ranger, thainot his thumb, just the higher part at the palm, which is higher and could be emphasized on a cartoon characters to make sure there's a solid place where palm becomes the wrist. Thumb is on the inside and not visible.

    But only one way to know. Have to wait until OP declares the results.

  • Ill go with manmade slop, mostly because there doesn't seem to be any anomalies and no melting into anything. All the different components seem to be separated, AI would metl something together at least. Especially for something from so many different sources.

  • It's probably just the usual of trying to appeal to people in power/higher position aka basic bootlicking.

  • Well yeah, i enjoy being busy. It's even kinda necessary for me due to ADHD, if i sit still with nothing to do for too long, days to weeks, early symptoms of depression start to slowly creep in which will get worse over time.

    I'd just like to be busy with my interests and hobbies, not damned work. Even though I actually do like my work.

  • For some unknown reason i have total irrational hatred towards this concept.

    My countries telecom companies do the same or at least the most. Every 2 years the special offer they did ends and i have to start switching my number after which for a month every single telecom company starts to spam me with better offer which all are the lowest they can go. Last time they even started sending me chocolates. Like WTF, i just want a phone, not a bloody chocolate.

    At this point i flipped them all off and accepted I don't need phone that much. My wife took over as she does want me to have a phone.

  • Oh but I've been locked in. It's just not the thing you or me wanted me to lock in on.

  • You really think government would just let you record their surveillance drones without any backlash?

  • Fuck yeah.

    Finally, after 4½ years of training and almost a year of focusing on it. I finally did it, 6 clean, full range of motion, no insane arch, competition depth, controlled reps of bench pressing 2 plates(100kg/225lbs), roughly 177cm at 83kg/~15-18%(abs are still visible when flexed) bodyfat, so not going for the insane dirty bulking and massing way either. I'm finally in the beginner stage.

    And don't arbitrary you dare to come and feed the voices in the back of my head that say it's nothing, that the avarage highschooler can do this or that any random person on social media is doing it for warm ups. I'm already working my ass off in trying to squash those myself.

    Let me just ride that high for a short while before i squash it myself.

  • Sry that came out kinda long.

    Honestly that's a good point, mind can be trained. I should try it again now that I've had some more practice with it.

    It's one of the most recommended and accessible methods to deal with it. Mindfulness meditation or just taking time, sitting down and focusing on the bodily sensations is one one of the most recommended method to deal with alexithymia as over time it teaches the person to become more aware of their body and teaches to associate different bodily sensations with corresponding emotions. Other is some form of journaling as writing down different sensations and what was going on at that time can indicate what emotions i might have been experiencing at that time.

    Of course it would be slightly more effective with a therapist, but as it is a years or more long process. The price of that can stack up rather high.

    Personally I've been trying to use "Animi" app, which is specifically created for people with alexithymia. It combines both approachs with regular logging of different body signals and sitting down, focusing and taking time to reflect back. It does use a different approach than other emotional tracking apps as it already takes inro account that the user doesn't know what emotion they might be experiencing by starting to guess based on whatever sensations i might be having.

  • I wouldn't say hide, but more like just completely isolate, let everything go and run.

    Constantly, it's one of the voices in the back of my head. It's constantly whispering "run" "just give up", it's just the easiest solution to nearly everything and if it didn't work the first time. Do it again.

  • I assume yeah, it was mentioned more often back in school, but nowadays in adult life and having mostly the same friend and social group for more than a decade it's not something that people mention or rub it in regularly enough to be noticable.

  • Yeah your right, but this is a huge wall of text.It will automatically push people away. It would be rather considerate to provide a basic TLDR, it will likely increase how many people will interact with it as well. Which in turn will likely help you get an answer.

  • Technically yeah i practice mindfulness meditation, though not in standard way.

    Mostly to help with my alexithymia(emotional blindness), learning to notice bodily sensations more can be helpful in figuring out what emotion i might be experiencing.

    I've tried the typical of sitting still type of meditation, but it never really worked ADHD and such.Then i started resistance training and over time i noticed that while I'm lifting. I have to focus on my body, i have to focus on breathing, i have to focus on keeping my attention on the weight and my body to make sure that the weight moves correctly and with control, that my form stays somewhat correct, that I'm using right muscles.All of that works kinda like mindfulness meditation and has been helpful in teaching me to notice my bodily signal and how my mind works and eventually even slightly controlling or directing it to avoid negative spiraling.

  • We never did.

    Points towards whole human history before social media

  • Got er

  • Skill issue.

  • Didn't catch that. Could you repeat?

  • Oh FFS and "SanCTioNs arE EffectIve And SupposeD To WoRk".

    Not if you keep making exceptions whenever it suits you.

  • You can use ~~ sign in the front and end of the word to cross it out like that to make backwards corrections, but still keep the context of the reply that pointed out the typo.

  • We can argue about 7 and 10 as well. 7 was "loved" only in comparison and because xp support was starting to end and many people were soft forced to upgrade and 7 was just the only viable choice left over before Linux. Same with 10, support for 7 was ending and people were forced to cross over to 10.

    Currently same is happening with 10 and 11 is being avoided like wildfire, so once again people assume 12 is going to be good, which heavily depends how much is Microsoft going to pander to AI, as some leaks have come out that 12 is heavily AI focused, obviously these being leaks so take those with a grain of salt.

    In addition nowadays linux has made decent progress and is an actually viable choice to avoid being forced to cross over to 12 and making 12 look good.
