I am Lattrommi. Yes, that one. You’ve never heard of me? I’m not surprised. It is often said that anything you put on the internet will live there forever. It becomes immortal. I do everything backwards and wrong. I do not live forever, I am always dying. ¿|√∞²|?

  • Others mentioned that it sounds hardware related. That reminded me that you should visually inspect all ports, especially unused ones. I had a system locking up constantly once and it turned out to be from debris in a usb port on one of the monitors was causing a short. It’s something that wont necessarily cause logged errors and can cause seemingly random behaviour that will have one chasing problems that don’t exist. USB ports and DVI plugs especially can be hard to notice with how they are constructed. Audio jack holes too. Make sure there’s no breaks in any cords. It seems too simple to be true and then it happens and you feel foolish for not having thought of it.


  • Hmm, for some reason I read ‘paper holder’ and my brain turned it into ‘bookend’, I thought it was for a bookshelf and mentally pictured a vertical contraption, I see now that isn’t what you were going for.

    The pricing situation seems similar to used furniture on craigslist. Some sellers seem to think furniture can only go up in value from the sticker price, regardless of the number of dogs owned. It’s not like they are made out of marble…

    Learn how to ride a bike with no hands. Obviously, only do this is you have access to a relatively flat and safe path to practice.

    Practice until you can go a mile or kilometer or whatever is your standard unit of measure for a decently long distance.

    Your trauma’s listed all appear to be focused on others (except the narcisissm one but I’m assuming that’s about other people with it) and disappointment in them, or a lack of connection with them, or they are difficult or weary-ing. It is disconnecting you from yourself.

    This might help you release your thoughts of the outside world, of analytical thinking, of everything. It requires focus on the physical body and absence of all other thought. Regain lost balance.

    I am not a doctor or professional anything. Also I broke my elbow doing this. I don’t regret it. Your milage (or kilometerage?) may vary.

    Same. As for distro, for me personally, it should be designed to be usable with one hand, because I crashed and broke my elbow.

    For bike users in general though, it should be something …bespoke.

    For non-ebike cyclists I think an analog computer would be appropriate. Wait, do those have an OS? I guess it would be a manual system but I gotta check the manual manual to be sure.

    Don’t worry, thanks to climate change and unchecked corporate capitalism, you’ll most likely not be able to work at one place for 40 years.

    If you are in America and a legal adult, go see a doctor, try to get diagnosed with something that counts towards disability, then try to stay employed for at least 10 years then claim disability (generally about 10 years but look up the SSA rules for specifics), which will allow you avoid work and recieve a small amount of money that’s generally impossible to live off of and severely limits what you can actually do and gives you free (but mediocre) healthcare. I haven’t worked since the last day of 2019 because my new years resolution for 2020 was to not work anymore. I’m currently 43. I have ADHD, dyscalculia and I’m Bipolar.

    If that’s not your thing, start your own business, doesn’t matter what and you don’t need to actually have any revenue, just start it so you have it on paper that it exists. Then while you figure out how to stay alive using other means, you might get lucky and find some corporate dick who wants power that will buy your company for a ludicrous amount without actually knowing that you have no revenue ot staff or a product or any services. They just need it as a shell company anyways, so they can launder money and avoid paying taxes.

    One other angle and the most legal and honorable one to try, is determine your two favorite hobbies. Turn one into your job focus and the other becomes the one you continue to enjoy in your free time. This method allows you to also have a backup, in case the job hobby doesn’t work out. Eventually the hobby you still enjoy, if you still enjoy it, can be converted into a source of funding, provided you continually improve in it and network with other people who also enjoy it.


  • Unrelated to the point of your post, regarding the warning placed after the link. In the future, consider putting the warning BEFORE the link. This is an issue I’ve noticed more and more lately, where warnings come at the end or after the description of something to do which requires a warning. People are often impulsive and will click or perform actions without reading ahead. An example that is probably not the best example, which I like to use regardless, is (Warning, do not try this alone!) autoerotic asphyxiation. It can have serious consequences. Providing the instructions on how to do it, spoken/written in a positive manner, without preceding it with a warning, I’d say is without exception, a bad idea.
