I deal with the same thing. I had written for several small publications, and one way I overcame my disconnect from emotion was just by stream of conscious describe things. The way I’m subconsciously describing it tends to reveal my feelings for it. Directly, i really feel nothing for it but under the layers I do have a sense of emotion for it.

Been reading Dune, almost done then I’m reading Dune Messiah. Working to finish the whole series by the end of the year.

I have not seen any of the movies.

Gentoo gaming and music production rig working through mostly tty with dwm as a graphical display. I typically stay on tty until I want to play a game, use modern web, or record a song. Otherwise tty with Links browser.

What’s been the toughest sacrifice you’ve made for lent?

It’s a cool concept, but just seems short of what I expected. Seems the majority of good stuff is much much further down the line in it. I’d say Deep Rock is better option for this kind of game. Doing missions and fighting hoards of bugs.

Helldivers 2. I just found it boring. I’m waiting still for my refund, I only haf about 1.5 hours in it. But only 45 minutes of gameplay. I managed to only get a few matches and they were very dry.

What’s the best place to look for jobs these days? Going on indeed floods me with endless “insurance sales” positions. I tried Dice, but almost every job is wildly out of range for experience to pay. I’ve devolved down to scrolling over an area on google maps and clicking businesses to check their websites.

Even though it’s a stereotype, Catcher was my favorite book throughout school. From abouy 6th grade I read it every year until I graduated high school. I wrote many essays around it for my English classes.

I recently finished The Myth of Sisyphus by Camus. I’m going back and forth between Meditations by Aurelius or Kraftwerk: Future Music from Germany by Schütte. I tend to take my time with books so I want to make it count. Meditations is shorter and been on my list for a while, but I’ve been on a serious thing for Kraftwerk lately.

Most of my girlfriend’s family is deaf. They read fairly slowly and end up usually not really following subtitles very easily. Sign language is fastest for them to understand.

Play Siege. So Linux wins again.

I like it, functionality wise. But, there’s barely any content beyond gaming and linux. Also, as time goes on, I’m seeing more of the stupid attitudes that were all over reddit. I’m using it less and less. I actually find myself on 4chan more, at least there the arguments are funny.

I got into Amigo The Devil almost a decade ago in highschool. I used The Weight in my senior project presentation when it was a recent single.

My favorite shoes are the Red Wing Iron Ranger’s. I worked for them for 3 years and when I left I was gifted my second pair. They’re great shoes in everyway. I only wish they had an 8 inch version available in the states. They had one back then in Europe, but nothing stateside. My two sets and the pile of other shoes I got when I worked there have been going strong some years on so I haven’t boot shopped in a while, maybe they finally took my advice and did it.

I agree with the other guy, the T440P is great. My top 3 are the T400, T440P, and T480.

T400 - great keyboard and form factor, but heavy
440P - LOTS of ports, easily fixable, last one with replaceable cpu
T480 - very lightweight and thin, good modern cpu, usb c fast charging.

Pretty much any thinkpad is a good go. Age doesn’t really matter either. I’ve got a T23 from 2001 that’s running fresh and good. I’d say maybe 2012 is as far back as you might want to go for regular use though.

I use gentoo on my gaming computer.

Played as a crack head and just smoked crack ti I died after breaking my legs.

The French situation just gave me more reasons to dislike Sartre.

Me with my dwm key binds.
