If you're a schizo, it's probably pretty easy to rationalize: you've heard your god talk to you and tell you these things. It's easy to go "You're obviously crazy, this can't have happened!" from the

There is none. The word has been misused to the point of ambiguity being an accepted part of its definition, and we are all worse off for it. The language is now less expressive, and you need to use more words to add context and remove ambi

Are you better off if I punch you in the face or kick you in the groin? It's a false choice, and it's pretty psychopathic.

Why in the world would you try to put a positive spin on it? It's bad behaviour, and you should feel bad for engaging in it. It's greedy and dishonest. Pass.

I don't have an actionable list off the top of my head, but in particular, about 6-12 months ago, I started digging into how to theme my install. Wanted to have e.g. different system theme colours than Ubuntu eggplant, a different back

Yes, it's called amphetamine. There is an alternative to being fat too, it's called broccoli. The point isn't that there are no alternatives, just that choosing to smoke is just as morally justifiable as choosing to be fat.

On the side of the desktop environments and their usage of it, the fact that I have to "dbus-launch" to change a user's settings from a shell seems pretty insane to me. Technology-wise I'm sure other protocols are worse

Sometimes, but that's a finnicky beast in its own right. You need to figure out which poorly documented variable you need to change to do whatever, usually from a Stack Overflow post from some other poor fucker, then make heads and tai

It's not so much that I've stopped asking questions, as it is that I am no longer unsafe about what I know. I question my reality every day, but not having all the answers no longer scares me. I know what I know, I know what I don

You misread my statement. Life has no inherent meaning. It is inherently meaningless. Therefore you make your own meaning to give it one. Simple as that. You can, of course, let someone else make a meaning for you, and choose that instead

Yeah. Absurdism is pretty rad. Embrace the abyss, and you will never have to gaze directly at it again. Life is inherently meaningless. That means it has any meaning you want it to. Comparing it to the alternatives of what I'm told lif

I don't think it is extreme, I simply choose not to surround myself with people who find me distasteful. Seems like the ideal solution for both of us.

I do not see the point. Your way made me miserable. My way makes me happy. That's all the proof I need to support myself.

What skills need improvement? I am 100% aware of when it is safe to interrupt and when it is not. People have different thresholds for what they consider acceptable, and there's a whole bunch of social factors to it, like in every situ

Which is exactly why Buddhism is for losers. No one wants to be the Dalai Lama. If standing by helplessly as others dominate you is supposed to be the highest example of holiness, then it is quite simply rotten. It got closer than the Abrah

I am from Norway. I know all about the importance of perservering in the face of social pressure precisely because of that. I know who I am, and I know what makes me happy. Being "proper" is not that. I know full well this trait o

Good. It is high time for some breakage. When your toe is gangrenous, you should cut it off, even if you're sad to see it go. This applies doubly so if you're as strange and mysterious a beast as C++ is — sprouting body parts in r

This is not surprising, but not for the reasons the authors imagine. Of course going back to jail after being free would make any kid who values his own autonomy depressed. School in its current form is awful, because it's far too au
