BETTER YET

Better yet

Telling someone to change jobs and avoid dating is not the same thing as saying he delayed gratification. The ladder is just a quality of growing away from your childhood.

My question was rhetorical. You still tried to answer my question by making up context just like your posts about OP. This is what I’m saying is pointless. There are more important things in life than retaining your childhood such as providing for yourself and others. I would guess in most cases, growing away from your childhood is done out of necessity. It’s a sacrifice of time people choose because of the consequences of the alternative but you say OP should have made different decisions to prioritize their childhood? Your criticisms are only valid for someone who sacrifices needlessly which doesn’t seem like a common thing.

OP looking back and yearning for their childhood does not mean they did anything wrong in their life path. Growing away from your childhood is very common.

You have no idea if OP is proud of their path and is casually reminiscing or if they believe they should have done something different.

All of your wikihow tier advice is a weirdly specific to a life that we know nothing about. OP has discipline to continually make the same decision to stay on their path instead of getting distracted by selfish instant gratification.

There’s nothing wrong with doing what’s expected of you. At any time I can give up my career and coast at the expense of my stability but I never choose that option. That doesn’t mean I’m not making the decision to continue to work.

If you have an option to keep my free time and financial stability then I’m listening.

Because they made the right choice for the goals they set out to reach. The lack of agency is just a playful way of writing.

Oh. It’s just that you listed these reasons as detractors. I don’t really know what you mean by default engagement. I’m not understanding your use case. Do you expect to be wearing VR goggles while you walk down the street to the convenience store? They are for play right now… not so much work.

Bigscreen Beyond is a new vr headset that is a little bigger than pool goggles. It’s manufactured based off of a lidar scan of your face, and is supposed to be very comfortable.

Additionally full color passthrough is becoming more of a common feature so you can see the real world in good definition while wearing the headset. Also some models hinge the display upwards off of your face.

We are getting there. Personally I play for hours a day. Sometimes multiple 4 hour sessions if it’s a free weekend for me. I agree we need more experiences. But it will come.

New season of One Punch Man

ok brb

The ads were terrible.

I was wondering if it was possible to write a script to scrape reddit posts, and then ask chatgpt to say the same thing slightly differently and output the post/comments in a csv format and then use that to create a lemmy posting bot. Idk if chatgpt has api access like that though, and what agreements would prohibit this.

My subscribed feed has top posts from days ago. Specific communities like virtual reality or mountain biking or classical guitar are basically empty.

That said I don’t use reddit and consider my boutique feed a sacrifice to the internet gods until lemmy has more population.

I was curious about this kind of idea. Isn’t all reddit content owned by reddit, and isnt pasting their intellectual property onto a different platform not really super legal? (I fully support it)

Being able to extract all of the question/answer threads on reddit to boost the value of lemmy from a search index perspective seemed too good to be true as a solution.

Bad managers are a waste of resources just like bad front line employees are a waste of resources. Any role that has less oversight has more potential for abuse that is harder for the company to recognize. It’s probably easier to notice an underperforming employee in person than it is virtually.

The longer term effect on growth of talent and teams is probably still largely unknown.

We can’t know. And that’s fine.

Whatever started the physical process that created us is pretty fucking crazy. I bet it’s a simulation.

So many people in this thread were traumatized from church lol. God isn’t inherently a bad or stupid idea… just depends on how you define God.

Solution now. Better solution later.

For sure let us know when it’s done

I’ve heard similar guesses that executives or whoever… invest in businesses that benefit from their employees foot traffic. Not sure either.

Lol I don’t know about all that.
