    You are being very vogue, and it’s making it hard to answer your question.

    If you are looking for a mental health professional, there are platforms you can use online, or even lookup professionals in other countries and contact them. Keep in mind, depending on the country the cost can vary greatly, a psychologist in Greece will cost you 40eur per session, but one in USA will cost at least 400usd per session.

    Depending on the country you live in, maybe there are public services you can use, though from your post it seems unlikely 🥲

    Also, books and video essays, are a great resource bettering ones self, you just need to find the right ones.


  • Petkauskas’s article describes the discovered breach as “a plethora of supermassive datasets, housing billions upon billions of login credentials” that have been sourced from “social media and corporate platforms to VPNs and developer portals.” This data is sourced from “30 exposed datasets” that researchers say contains “tens of millions to over 3.5 billion records each.”

    To be clear, this is not a new data breach, or a breach at all, and the websites involved were not recently compromised to steal these credentials

    Regardless of whether this involves freshly leaked credentials or not, it might be a good time to freshen up your logins. Hackers’ jobs are getting easier by the day.


  • I have same experience. I would sleep every day a bit later until I got to the point where I would sleep at 6am, spend the whole day feeling like a zombie, then sleep early and repeat.

    For the past year, I am trying to wake up every day at 8am, it kinda works. I still occasionally get out of schedule but within a few days I am able to get back to the routine.

    Another thing that has helped is falling asleep to a streamer video. I watch everynight a trackmania video and it helps me fall asleep.


  • Hey, I was fired last July and I went through the same process, I actually asked a similar question on Lemmy and the feedback I received helped a tonne in landing more interviews.

    Here are the steps I believe helped me:

    1. Make sure your CV is machine parseable, search for open resume, upload your cv see what it detects. Ideally, generate your CV using that tool.
    2. Create your own portfolio website, here is mine for reference https://souperk.gr/ (I have a public repository, feel free to copy if CSS isn’t your strong suite)
    3. Check that toggle on LinkedIn to signify you are actively searching atm (don’t remember how, but you should see a ribbon on your avater if it’s active)

    For me, landing more interviews was the hard part. Once I got a few interviews going, landing an offer was easy.



  • I like Arc’s user experience with vertical tabs. They are bigger, easier to organize and they are cleaner. Also, the sidebar toggle is hard to work with, ideally I would prefer the ability to toggle with a shortcut or reveal on hover.

    Aside Arc, Zen browser has a good vertical tab experience.

    Overall, I still main firefox for my personal browser, though it’s UX is still lacking.



  • There are a lot of things to unpack here.

    First of all, your friend is at vulnerable place and this is not the time for you two to explore a romantic relationship. You will definetely regret rushing things, you sound like a kind person and you don’t want to exploit her. Try to be there for her, give time and space for something romantic to develop.

    When the time has come try to be clear and formal, ask her for a date, like you are meeting a new person. Dating someone you know for a long time can be confusing and messy, invest the time to understand the romantic side of your relationship.

    Also, you deserve to be with someone that appreciates the whole you. De-transitioning should something you do because you want to and not something you do because someone else wants it. You are allowed to change your mind, but make sure you do it for the right reasons.

    Last but not least, as far as the equipment is concerned, there are always strap ons 👌

    PS the concept of love can be complex and confusing. There is a lot of research around it, but IMO the bottom line is that there are two sides of it you need to be aware. 1) there is limerance which is a feeling and 2) there is love which something you do









  • It helps to think about this as a spectrum, as more features become available more people will make the switch to Linux. Not everyone will be able to swich to Linux at the same time, and some people will never switch.

    Gaming was major bottleneck, even I, a person using Linux full time for the past 20 years, I used to maintain a Windows disk to play games. Only in the past couple of years I was able to sunset my windows setup, hopefully to never touch windows ever again. I had to drop a couple of games but it got to the point where rebooting to a OS wasn’t worth it, as most of my games worked flawlessly without any tweaking.

    There are many major pros to the Linux desktop environment, but we still need major software applications to become portable. The workflow of an average office worker is still not Linux compatible. Of course there are office alternatives, but they are not as easy to use. Though, IMO the oss world is hurting by trying to copy ms when their products are so horrible… Hopefully, the EU will drop some major cash at the issue with all these talks about digital sovereignty.
