Not outside in a city with cameras. If tails on homemade/trusted hardware is not safe enough, woods are the only option.

I am in a similar spot right now. Not diagnosed (yet), but I do suspect very strongly I have it.

DM me if you would like to talk about it.

However I believe it it best to get diagnosed, since I think this uknown state is the worst.

If the money is not issue there must exist even some online therapists willing to diagnose you. But I am not sure about that.

What keeps you away from doomerism despite crurent world trends? in c/[email protected]

It is all about perspective. Glass can always be half full.

Few examples:

  1. There is still a lot of work beeing done about climate changes. Polution was way worse 50 years ago in my country. Solar power is actually cheap enough and is taking over the world.
  2. After far right will not bring the prosparity it promissed, there will be a new age. Also if you are refering to Trump, this is his last mandate. (And after that he will probably go to prison)

Even if there a colapse is to be expected. There will always be the next day. And good people will raise.

There are still a lot of good people fighting and willing to fight for the good.

I see it only as a new cycle of "Bad times create strong people. Strong people create good times. Good times create weak people. And weak people create bad times."

What is the smallest city in your country that everyone can still instantly recognise the name of? What is it famous for? in c/[email protected]

In Slovenia I believe Sevnica (4.5k population) - home town of Melania Trump - would be the smallest most recognizable place by the world.

But Slovenia is small enough even Kostanjevica na Krki with 802 or Vače with 421 population is easily recognizable by Slovenians.

How do you handle non working apps on DivestOS or MicroG version of LineageOS? (self.privacy)

I have an issue with a few apps that do not work at all or work poorly without google play services.

Is there anything a person can do? Eg. use google play services just for those apps or something like that?

So how do you overcome broken app issues?Is there an alternative to just not using those apps? Do you have separate not degoogled phones? Or do you use those apps in mobile browser? What about mobile

I also found a guy with the same name and age when I was a kid.

Well the next thing I heard about him was an email from curt sent to my email. Well he was trying drive over his ex girlfriend with a car.

I am however not proud of him.

Bank of Mum and Dad: why we all now live in an ‘inheritocracy’ in c/[email protected]
[–] bkr78658 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I believe this is the main source of unfairness in my country. I have a good pay, but most of it goes for housing. So I live the same life as someone who works for a minimum wage if they inherited their home or can live with their parents.

Even though I had to work and invest way more to get to my salary.

But what is even worse is that in eyes of our government I am considered rich and I get no social benefits and I also pay way more taxes than those who are "poor".

Whenever I get into discussion about piracy libraries gets brought up. Libraries are just pirates. One person buys a book and shares it with others for free. Same shit as piracy. With the books is the same as with digital content. You are not buying the paper, you are buying the content. Except if you buy a book online you are for some reason not allowed to share it. And yes I support piracy.

Oh. That comparison is a really good one. Never though of it that way.

As a young American, how do I motivate myself to work? It feels like the entire system is a scam and it's pointless to even try. in c/[email protected]

You know this is not true. And I believe it is also harmful responding this in a post of someone who is struggling with doom/pessimistic thinking.

Is Facebook making a comeback? (self.asklemmy)
 

I used Facebook just for one community that would not move elsewhere. So I had to check it once a month. But then Facebook started recommending me other interesting groups and communities I joined. In my experience Facebook 6 months ago just recommended random old memes and ads. And I was hoping enshitification would finally eat Facebook for good. (I mean tiktok like reels however still shows enshitification is their top priority)

But now I am member of groups with active and helpful people. Niche groups you will not be able to find on lemmy or even reddit.

For me to really start liking it again after 10 years into enshitification they would probably have to become really open. Like joining a fediverse and offer messenger interoperability with other apps. Probably even becomming opensource.

Is it true that facebook feed is becomming more interesting or is this just my feeling because I joined those groups that existed there probably for a long time? Is Facebook making a comeback?

I rarely feel attacked when I talk with people in person. And we all take people feelings into consideration enough so no one is trying to attack anyone.

I was not actively commenting on social media since I was 13. But when I joined Lemmy i saw the statistics only 1% of people are actively posting and commenting on social media. And since I knew I was in 99% of people who are only consuming and really wanted Lemmy to take off I tried to be more active.

But now I find myself way too often attacked and attacking. And I always judged people that are attacking others on Xitter or Facebook.
