Hmm, now that makes me wonder if there’s such a thing as a FOSS web host—as open as one could be, anyway…
M30s in Milwaukee, WI. I’ll never say “no” to a meal at Naf Naf Grill!

Sure, that’s fair. Call me brutal or cruel, though, but this whole existential crisis had me stepping back even further in scope than yours to: do the kid’s feelings matter? Does the kid even matter in the first place?
Beyond evolutionary altruism and social norms, I can regrettably no longer seem to see anything other than just brain chemicals/feelings and anyone merely wanting or choosing to say “yes” to those, which is not wrong or bad, but the loss of the framework of any post-death existence to further support just treatment of others has just been unnerving to me.
Is there anything beyond these seemingly rudimentary drivers of motivation to support the stance of helping others or, to go even further out in scope, doing anything in particular at all, like even surviving? It doesn’t seem like it. I continue to live because I currently want to play Slice & Dice, help others make friends in my neighborhood with events I offer to the public, etc., but that’s it—there’s no further basis. I just want to do it. I guess I feel like without an afterlife, we effectively plunge into our own hedonism, buttressed by personal morals—that still bow ultimately to each individual’s sense of pleasure.
And I don’t like that.
There were a lot of good ideas here, though, which have been helping. I’m not suicidal in any way—just rethinking the entire framework of motivation for why we bother to do what/anything that we do. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Dang, how fast did you get married after that? Haha. I wish I had your self-confidence!
I had no idea that this was a thing, thanks. So it’s only globally removed if the original comment is removed…
It’d be nice if there was a feature in Lemmy mobile apps that automatically checks for this and displays the deleted comment if it’s present elsewhere.
How were you able to establish such an arrangement? How did you meet?
Just watched Reservoir Dogs. Man, what a trip. Incredible acting and phenomenal camera work for such long, intense scenes.
Thanks, I’ll see what needs to be done!
It’s not about you swaying people to follow your line of work but just helping people consider things they didn’t consider before. What’s so wrong about that?
Yes, my thoughts exactly!
Wow, that must be an incredibly tight NDA if you can’t even say one word describing your role. Welp, never mind, then. Thanks for the book recommendation; I’ll check it out!
They probably knew, but the truth is just boring and it’s funner to dramatize things, haha.
Geez, that’s a lot of requests!
I didn’t know you could choose where to reincarnate.
The industry is severely oversaturated and may present a hard time for you career-wise to find work.
I’m talking about your specific career that you took as a result of that book, though: what was that?
Also, paramedics need exponentially way more skills than product demonstrators! But yes, they both need at least those skills.
Yes, glass’s weight and fragility are real problems. This is why I try to repurpose my empty glass jars for other things as much as possible and get more life outta them.
So… what is your job? You go to such great lengths to bash her career ideas and praise your own yet you don’t even say what it is to offer an alternative.
What career was that?
I’d prefer to avoid working with it, or living with it in general
Then you won’t like programming. Definitely scratch that off, especially given the carnage going on in /r/cscareerquestions—it’s not looking good.
So… it’s becoming truer, then?
