I do devops at work and my experience is that really any CI/CD system works, they all have enough features to do what you want. They all fundamentally just run scripts on boxes. Therefore, I say pick the easiest one, likely the one that is built into whatever Git system you are using.

Try to keep your pipelines simple-ish when you can, they almost never need to be that complicated. 95% of the time it's just running a command or two. If a pipeline needs to do something complex, I'd recommend writing that script into the Git repo and calling it, rather than having a CI job that is 100 lines long.

I progressively vaped lower and lower nicotine percentages until I was vaping 0% nic. Still did that for a couple weeks and then I quit vaping altogether.

It's nice to be able to separately quit nicotine and vaping, since they're both addictive.

Bringing friends and community together? I see an awful lot of Lemmings talk about disliking people, being introverted, etc.

I think if there's one main thing people will remember about me, it's how I bring people together. I get all my depressed friends off their ass and make them hang out with me, fun stuff :)

I think some people mistakenly think that being in a city means you have to go out a ton because there's all these cool bars, museums, etc.

But to me, I think of it more like, it's nice that if I want to do one of those things it doesn't require much effort, but I still only do it if I want to

Scenarios:

• You want to drink a lot and have an energetic night - One of the coolest things about cities is how close and accessible bars are. This makes it super easy to meet up with your friends and pregame a ton. Then you can walk over to a bar or club already hammered, and you only have to buy one or two drinks to keep it going.
• You want a cozy night - Then just get together with friends at one of your places and play board games or watch a movie or something. Now, if every single one of your friends has a really small apartment, then I understand this might be less comfortable. Maybe the apartment building has a common space?
• Daytime events - Parks, community events, festivals, etc. There's usually a few free events every day, check your local news

What a stupid comment. Just showing up to a protest is far more than most people do. Do you think the No Kings protest would have had so much coverage if only 100 people went to it?

Mind sharing what service you use for it? Paid or free?

I'm a bassist in a few bands. Wish there was more bass discussion here on Lemmy.

If you're into prog rock, check out one of my band's songs: frog rock

Yes this is how I found out about it, by searching if there was a known Exodus scam with Snap. I can't believe this has happened more than once, I don't know how Snap works but that seems like a mistake you make once and then never again.

I reported the SNAP to Canonical. I understand that this is not directly KDE Discover's fault, but I wonder if there's still a possible solution (like a bigger warning for SNAP packages or something).

I've reported the SNAP to Canonical and emailed KDE security.

It looks like this exact same thing happened a year and a half ago (just search "snap exodus scam").

My dad just got scammed a lot of money by downloading this fake Exodus cryptocurrency wallet from the Discover app. I really can't blame him too much, it looks legit and usually you don't think of getting scammed in the official Discover app.

You're right that this might look like BPD, but that's also a huge conclusion to draw from only a couple sentences. It's extremely rare to diagnose BPD before age 18 because it has too much overlap with just... the nature of moody teens and puberty.

OP, it might be useful to research BPD but moreso than anything, just give her time and make sure she knows you're there if she needs you. Give her reassurance and try asking her about why she thinks people hate her, and maybe try working through it with her (try bringing logic into it, but try to get her to come up with the logic rather than telling her directly).

It's the top comment

Well, there is partial truth to this. Diagnosing especially preteens with mental health conditions almost always needs an asterisk, their brains are still heavily developing.

Remember that we know of no reliable genetic / physiological markers for ADHD, so when doctors diagnose it, they're really just saying that the amount of symptoms seems to be severe enough. Some kids are just naturally more energetic, intelligent, etc. and may appear like they have ADHD, but when they develop into adults that might not actually be the case.

If anything, it's more like 1/3 of kids were misdiagnosed as having ADHD, so they "grew" out of it because they didn't really have it. It's a lot less likely for an adult to be misdiagnosed because their brains aren't changing.

It's genius, now she can't give away her emotions through her eyes

I'm reading Warbreaker right now because someone said I should read it before Stormlight Archive, but I'm very excited to start that series soon.

I've heard great things about Wheel of Time, although one of my friends said it can be a bit harder to get into.

I can totally imagine that book being really boring to some people. I almost didn't include the actual book series in this post but I thought people would be curious.

I think for people who are big readers, reading books that they only kinda enjoy isn't a big deal for them. They might even just appreciate that it's different.

But for folks who don't read much and are trying to get into it, chugging through a book they only partially like might ruin their entire vision of what reading should be.

Try to frame it like it's exciting, not a failure. It's fun that you have so many more books you want to read!

Haha, you're right. I guess I should have written "then try to do thing A".

If you feel like you're struggling to accomplish a task, take a moment to think about your stimulation level. Are you understimulated or overstimulated? Sometimes just acknowledging it is enough, everyone has their own techniques.

For example, if I'm trying to work and I'm understimulated, I might throw on some metal music or something like that. If I'm overstimulated, probably means I should sit in a dark room for 5 or 10 minutes until I feel better before trying to do anything.
