Aargh.
I don’t care about the rules. I don’t even know what the hell I’m doing most of the time. I do read recipes, but I don’t follow them. They are more like ideas for me, as in “oh they are using that spice with these veggies, might try that some time.”
Most of the time I just throw stuff in the pan/pot and let them be over the heat for a bit. So far, nobody has complained about the food. Though that might be because I eat alone.
Delete the apps from your phone.
No need to delete the accounts if you think those are something you want to keep. You can still use the browser versions of them. Those browser versions suck, that will make you want to use them less (hopefully, don’t know how addicted you are). The more you get frustrated with using the things, the less you want to use them. Its like making cigarettes taste absolutely horrible and disgusting in order to not want to smoke them.
Or leave your phone somewhere that you cant reach. On top of your bookshelf, in your clothes closet, kitchen. Make it so that there is barriers, however small, to using them. You could go to extremes and lock it in a safe that only your mom has access to. Or you could install one of those apps that lock you out for a certain period of time.
Leave your phone home and go take a walk. Walk to the library, read some magazines, newspapers or books there. Get a mp3 player, put some music, podcasts or audiobooks in it and go for a walk.
Barriers are the thing. You don’t have to lock yourself out of the devices, apps and services. Just make using them slightly inconvenient. Then raise the inconvenience levels bit by bit.
You are just stuck in a routine. Break the routine, break the addiction.
If a company only communicates through facebook, discord etc, that company doesn’t exist for me. So far, I haven’t had any issues in my life because of it.
Really? That sounds awful.
The IRC servers I’m at don’t have ads. Its very nice.
Not to worry, I have a torch.
It works fine. For now.
The dev team had disagreements, a bunch left, made their own thing, Morphe. Thats all I know/remember. There was a reddit thread explaining the shenanigans, you should be able to find that fairly easily.
Good idea, lets ban laws!
Banning porn would just mean that it would be produced only by criminals. So what we should do is first ban criminals and only then ban porn.
Easy and insulting way of finding out how important you are to your friends is to tell them on Whatsapp “I’m done with being forced to use this spyware app, I’m moving to Signal, you can contact me there.” Then maybe reminding them a week later about this, then uninstall Whatsapp.
Either they think you are important enough that they go through the awful trouble of spending 90 seconds of their lives installing the Signal app, or they think thats too much trouble to keep in contact with you.
I did that, found out that my friends didn’t really care too much about me lol. A couple did and thats nice. You don’t need 735 friends anyway. Or at least I dont.
Like I use GrapheneOS but the lead dev crashes out on Xhitter constantly and attacks rival privacy projects.
Hahah, I subscribed to them on Mastodon, but a few days ago I unsubscribed because he had a weird, multi-post rant against Jolla. I’m not saying he was wrong but it could have been a few sentences long and got the message through. But instead he wrote as if Jolla was a russian demon trying to take over the world. It was rather silly and mildly funny to see but I still don’t need that sort of negativity in my feed lol
Hmm well thats disappointing to hear. Retroarch worked very well on my android device a few years ago. Might be better to check if theres other options to use in the future.
I know better, I am stupid __
edit: evidence of my stupidity is that I couldn’t even get one of those emoji faces done right
Oh no whats going on with retroarch. Please dont tell me that they are having a fight, I just managed to get a bunch of roms downloaded and was ready to start converting my xbox into a retro machine
I’ve sort of skimmed a few posts talking about the drama. I don’t have specifics but from what I’ve read the main guy at Revanced is a bit of a ego and doesn’t know how to code (very well). The people who know how to code tried to work with him, got fed up and left.
Ah, got it.
I wonder if its a location thing. I’m in northern Europe, if anyone got the same notification, let me know where you at
According to this reddit thread it also happened to people with Premium https://old.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/1sic32k/getting_coachella_notifications/
Since you haven’t heard of Revanced, ignore that and check this one out instead: https://morphe.software/
There was some drama in the Revanced team, a bunch of the devs left and started Morphe. Revanced is on life support right now.
I was one of the 10 000. Again!
I mean… it’s quite literally happened already. I’m not the only one who got the notification so they are definitely doing something. Maybe not with all accounts but 1 is too many.
Youtube is also sending notifications about a coachella live stream, even if the notification settings/preferences are turned off.
Even if you have Revanced.
lol I didn’t mean those sort of rules/instructions. I meant the stuff like “pineapple doesn’t belong on a pizza” type things.
But you are correct, the ready made meal instructions are often a bit iffy. One thing they get right is the consistency though. Once you figure out how long you need to boil things, you can get them done fairly well. Though I only use those Knorr bags on my camping trips and its always the last one that I cook, that I get right. Then by the time I go for the next hike, I’ve already forgotten lol. But luckily everything tastes better when you are in the wilderness.
