And dead pixels? Aborted.

My personal experience has been that a lot of what passes for "show, don't tell" ends up making people write more like movies are shot. Film can't show interiority like prose can, but a lot of middling genre and fan fiction has reaction shots written in prose.

It was the suppliest of days, it was the demandest of days. Savings hardly seemed equal to investments anymore after Larry's wife left him. Divorce was so sudden to him - hadn't he studied enough game theory to foresee the possibility?

I definitely agree. Like eating more fiber just generally tends to improve diet quality as you're eating more nutritious foods, like vegetables, fruit and whole grains products are chockfull of valuable nutrients, but it's still a change where you don't need to overhaul all of your diet at once to see the benefit.

It takes a while for bacteria in your gut to adjust. Like a big part of why fiber is good for you is because it's food for the good guys there, but it takes a while for them to reproduce to exploit the new opportunity of increased nutrition. Thus radical changes in diet lead to the population ending up in an imbalance as some bacteria can't survive anymore and others have yet to take their place. So it's a good idea to make any changes gradually and only add fiber again when your gut has adjusted.

That said, you could also try eating fermented vegetables like kimchi and sauerkraut along with your fiber supplement. Fermented vegetables not only have fiber, but they also have lactic acid bacteria which eat fiber. You get a good population of fiber eating bacteria sooner.

Edit: Also fermented dairy can be good. Butter milk, yoghurt, kefir, sur and so on. You can make a pretty refreshing drink by mixing one part of greek yoghurt with one part of water. It's sweet and sour much like soda, but probably way better for you than that. If you use vegan dairy alternatives, there are also fermented options there.

Debian sounds like it would fit you pretty well. It's a precompiled distro that's package managed via apt. KDE works just fine on it and there's probably all sorts of small familiar things given Debian gave birth to Ubuntu.

I've found the stable version to be incredibly stable in the past and the testing release has a bit fresher set of packages if you're willing to a risk of occasional jank. If you willing to work a bit for fresher packages still you can find uptodate debian packages of popular software maintained some else than the Debian folks themselves, I used to use a bleeding edge daily version of Emacs myself and installed Spotify from their own repository.

The one made by me is the best, btw. Saturn-Valley. I refuse to be modest, but I do love how there is a site that I can make look like the file loading screen of EarthBound. I believe that a lot more sites could take inspiration from that game!

well it's pretty unfair comparison as no-one would ever suspect yoshi of anything but athleticism.

It's beautiful imo thanks for telling.

Yeah thanks. Like I avoided doing the task for about four days, but when I posted I got it done in under 30 minutes. Like, whatever, it's a bit irrational to behave like this, but somehow telling someone else about what I need to do helps me put back on track.

Tbh I have the feeling that the real dystopian parts of this will be the social ones, image generation brrr is really the innocuous part to me. Like imagine Disney automating in-betweening work using patented proprietary methods, outcompeting every other animation studio in the business. I fear the backlash will lead to an expansion of copyright, whereas, as a provisional demand at least, we could be demanding something cooler like basic income.

All that said it's cool to have someone deep in the topic around here.

Real good shit, thank so much voxpoplar.
