people love acting like they’re perfect and always make perfect decisions in these posts. like, you can easily advise the OP and sympathize but people love to be smug instead

why does everyone have to have “excellent” skills? just logically not everyone can have excellent skills, or there wouldn’t be excellent skills. i very much doubt everyone currently working there also has equally “excellent” skills. you can’t just say you have to be perfect. i fucking hate this shit
again, this is all long term executive function that you are generally incapable of performing or even contemplating when depressed. maybe you can protestant-work-ethic yourself out of depression but that doesn’t mean everyone can. oh yeah lemme just keep being fucking harsh with myself, that’s the ticket.
what i want to hear is
simple, actionable things that don’t have barely-hidden contempt or disinterest behind them
i like how the answers are the exact same generic unhelpful drivel you hear 20k times a month if you’re depressed as well. real improvement there. when people google that they want immediate relief, not fucking oh go for a walk every day, no shit. the triviality of the suggestion makes the depression worse because you know it’s going to do nothing the first week besides make you feel sweaty and looked at and alone. like if i’m feeling recovered enough to go walk every day then i’m already feeling good enough that i don’t need to be googling about depression tips. this shit drives me insane.
I literally watch TV through a capture card right now out of stubbornness and principle. Anything I want to record, I can just hit a button and safely keep. No DRM preventing me from taking screenshots, I can manipulate the picture to hide obnoxious graphics or ads (great for sports); the sense of control is extremely gratifying.
When record companies make a fuss about the danger of “piracy”, they’re not talking about violent attacks on shipping. What they complain about is the sharing of copies of music, an activity in which millions of people participate in a spirit of cooperation. The term “piracy” is used by record companies to demonize sharing and cooperation by equating them to kidnaping, murder and theft.
i tried to get into streaming but i grew increasingly uncomfortable with paying forever as titles appear and disappear at the whim of suits. how could that possibly be a pleasant UX for customers?
i’d take the hassle of having discs or managing a server any day of the week over paying these goons for access to their files which they happily negotiate away for financial reasons. it’s just a disgusting paradigm. when netflix was starting streaming, i thought (i was like 15) we were emerging into a great new age, where every show you could ever want was on one beautiful service.
now they won’t even let you share accounts or screenshot the fucking show (a pig-headed anti-piracy measure which is mind-blowingly stupid given every single show on there is available for free if you know where to look ANYWAY. what are they DOING.)
fuck streaming, fuck netflix, fuck spotify. crash and burn. topple like the house of cards you are.
why is everyone making decisions in tech completely fucking bereft of sense

well yeah you simply cannot convince me that copying a sequence of 1s and 0s between two computers is tantamount to stealing
look italy. just stick to what you know
pizza
pasta
mafia
and so on
instagram definitely does this, reddit seems fine for me so far
it makes me download 5 updates whenever i launch it then it looks just as shitty as before
end geolocking now
honestly i have an oculus and simply blowing up a standard 16:9 video works perfectly fine

i mean yeah duh. that doesn’t mean it’s right or good to do mass layoffs
i remember in high school (2010s) i tried using RSS but increasingly the feed wouldn’t even have the article, just the title and the link so you’d have to visit their website. especially obnoxious because my obnoxious school district filtered approx 90% of the internet (for shocking reasons like ‘forums’ or ‘TV/entertainment’ or ‘sports’ or ‘media’)
ostensibly it takes a lot of space to cache that much data, but seeing as they own youtube this should be nothing in comparison
they get paid like $2/hr when actually out on a delivery, it’s pathetic and is absolutely no reason to justify the fee
