  • I went to uni right out of highschool. Became a paramedic. Has a good career but it just wasn’t what I wanted. By 25 I quit and was travelling doing odd jobs or whatever I could. Meeting people, seeing places. It wasn’t easy but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I’ve been many places, done many things, met so many interesting people and completely changed my world view from when I was 20 because of it all.

    I say don’t let society tell you what is right or normal. Find your own path. Do things you find interesting and don’t make your life about your work. Now I am old and have medical issues. I’ll be 50 this year. I’m glad I lived while I had the opportunity. It’s your life make it what you want it to be not someone else’s idea of life.






  • As someone who knows sweet fuck all about programming but has been cruising the internet since dail up as well as pirating stuff long before most users here were even a glimmer of hope in their daddy’s testicles, this “just fucking read the code you idiot” mentality is just how it is here…and they wonder why the rest of the world won’t join them. Assholery in a tech sense is Lemmy.




  • In order to understand the usefulness of the blender you have to actually use it a lot. It has to be a common item of use in your life. As a kitchen person who loves cooking, that new blender is the best thing since I used a commercial robo coup in restaurant kitchens. A $12 blender is a piece of crap that has to be poked, prodded, messed with and talked nice to just to make a damn smoothie.

    Shoes though. I’m with you there. Feet and teeth. You get one life with them and use them every day. Take care of em.
