1 year agoSometimes I wear headphones/earbuds without the music on, just to drown at the noise.
Get ones that isolate noise well.

24·2 years agoSounds fine to me.
I dunno. My local doctor has saved plenty of lives.
Consider him more of a success than someone who reviews overpriced phones on youtube.
Suppose how you define success depends on what you think’s important in life.
In this case, it’s a semi-successful youtuber who does phone reviews.

But I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you.
L’enfer c’est les autres.
What about invisible/hidden watermarks?
The problem with linux, and I say this out of experience, is that even if it works on 99% of games and 99% of hardware that’s not much comfort if you’re part of the 1%.
Sometimes you’re just shit out of luck. At which point linux is just the worst and you genuinely are better off using windows. That’s invariably not linux’s fault. It’s the manufacturer or developer’s fault.
TBH I’m going to try linux again some day, but I’m going to make sure I have compatible hardware. This is the way.
Are you sure someone hasn’t already posted them on one of the torrent sites?
I hope that at least the BBC still have them, even if they’re not always available to stream.
Given the BBC’s history of getting rid of stuff, it’d be nice to archive stuff so it never gets lost.

A lot of psychology and psychiarty is not proper science. I’m not saying it doesn’t have value, but people should be sceptical. Of course, don’t go the other way and join scientology.
I think a lot of mental health problems are due to SLS.

If suspect that if we gave the mentally ill 2k and told them to go on a nice holiday, buy some healthy food, take care of their most urgent bills, many of them would be better off than after a mandatory hold in an underfunded mental health ward or a prescription of xanax from an overworked general practicioner.
High quality mental health care is probably far better, but that’s not what most people have access to.
Heard similarly bad stories from Scandinavia, of all places. If you’re vulnerable, it’s very easy to fall between the cracks, with doctors who abuse their power or make bad mistakes.
Also, the replication crisis really undermines psychology’s claims to scientific knowledge.
Of course, I’m not a scientologist, so I’m not going to claim that people shouldn’t go to see a mental health professional. Anti-depressants do work, therapy can and often does work, but as you say you really need to do your resaerch beforehand, and preferably have family or friends to defend your interests. Otherwise you’ll fall between the cracks just when you’re at your most vulnerable.
Same goes for elderly homes. Personally, I think I’ll kill myself before I ever get that far. If you don’t have family to check up on you, you’re quite likely to be neglected, exploited or abused.
When diplomacy fails, there’s only one alternative. Violence. Force must be applied without apology. It’s the Starfleet way.
Hush now. It will be over soon. The gas will make you sleep.
You should host the internet.
The people who gave up because they couldn’t solve their issues aren’t posting either.
