that’s fantastic!! for the media you still consume (youtube, Lemmy, etc.), avoid negative/angry/drama-driven communities and content. focus on positive things you really enjoy, like your hobbies, animals, uplifting news etc.

back when i still used reddit i cut out subreddits like antiwork and mildly infuriating and subbed to scrungy cats and things like that. my feed was so much brighter and it really made a different to my mental state and attitude!

cut away from social media and news. it’ll make you a sadder and angrier person and will rarely add anything meaningful to your life.

that was a really fun story :D

It is extremely useful in the right circumstances. When people say it isn’t useful or that it’s ‘stupid’, they’re not looking at the proper use cases - every tool has good and bad ways to use it (you wouldn’t use a hammer to peel an apple).

For example, we will soon have fully rendered smoke simulated at real time in 3D spaces (ie. video games) because we can calculate a small portion of how that smoke looks and then have AI guess what the rest looks like (with shockingly good results!)

AI is not a fad, it’s not going away, it’s improving rapidly, and it is going to massively change our digital world within half a decade.

I think I would’ve stopped reading manga if Tachiyomi hadn’t made it so easy ☺️

Just started Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead and absolutely loving it so far. Any recommendations?

Tachiyomi is also fantastic for this, it’s often touted as being the ‘best’ Android manga reader
