    It’s got to do with a poor sleep routine mixed with the stress and caffeine that it often comes with.

    Cut out caffeine three hours before bed, don’t eat too soon before bed, try get into a regular sleep and wake up routine and try get at least 6 hours minimum. And don’t go to bed with your phone in your face!

    Getting some exercise in the day helps a lot too!





  • Late reply, sorry just going though my messages here. But I get all the Linux love, however I assume you’re a developer or a writer. Linux is incredibly niche and basically a non option for a vast load of industries.

    Im a professional video editor and animator. Adobe is my bread and butter. I can’t use another option realistically either as it mostly doesn’t exist or I have to send out my projects to other creators and need to be able to talk to other PCs.

    Linux doesn’t support Adobe, it doesn’t support about 80% of my other creative softwares, it won’t play nice. Windows, for my use case runs like a dream.

    Until Linux gets broader adoption of actual pro level applications for the film industry (and many others), it will always be a niche OS for coders and web devs sadly. I’d sooner roll back to windows XP than use Linux.



  • Over what prices exactly?

    Games are expensive in general, especially AAA new titles. But to say they are stealing from customers seems a bit disengenuous. Game prices have barely changed in 20 years, if anything they’ve gotten cheaper. PS games are often less than Nintendo, and if you aren’t fussed with waiting they tend to drop in price dramatically after a year.

    Most polished titles can take many years and huge teams to make and provide 20+ hours of entertainment. Which is a lot more bang than a 2 hour film.

    The only problem I have is with digital titles charging the same as a physical title. Theoretically the cut in brick and mortar, printing and 3rd party mark ups should be shared with the customer who no longer has a physical copy to hold or resell and needs and account and internet to enjoy.




  • I’m getting completely sick of inanimate objects and concepts blasting and slamming people. It’s always Country X Slams Y, or building X blasts Y.

    What’s wrong with Andrew Bates criticizing Elon Musk. Why do we sum these people up to a point they become shadows behind a larger concept?

    The White House is a building filled with people and opinions. It doesn’t blast shit, shut the hell up. No take away from the content here. I’m just fed up with click bait and hearing that whole countries have a unified voice, going around slamming things everytime some asshole says something about another asshole just because the media needs to put a more famous face behind it to give it a bit more oomf.

    Apologies for the rant, but I find it all very misleading and rather annoying. The amount of times a country of 300 million people has blasted some dude without consulting with said 300 million people is upsetting.

    Having said that, Musk is a cunt. But I say that, not Lemmy. Lol.





  • Strike 1: upload an AI racist post changing a person’s ethnicity

    Strike 2: not even paying her for her work, and taking her only ‘income’ away which is exposure. (Silly of people that work for exposure but that’s another topic.

    Strike 3: apologize in the form of a thinly veiled threat of legal action

    Strike 4: feign ignorance, by saying you did it because you were overwhelmingly popular on social media, and weren’t paying attention and had no idea you didn’t pay your models. (Don’t lie, you absolutely knew). Pass the blame further by blaming the fans, because apparently someone else had a vested interest in changing the race of one of his models.

    Strike 5: try and turn the narrative by making sure everyone knows that the event is in honour of his dead wife, and actually WE should feel sorry for HIM.

    Sounds an awful lot like narcissism (what’s the narcissists poem?)

    This guy seems to be a bit of a racist scumbag, who not only takes advantage of young models, but is happy to throw those around him under the bus or throwing his lawyers at the problem before dishing out an honest and humble apology.
