Does Disco Elysium have therapeutic properties? Does conducting internal monologue to myself in the way Volition talks really help or am I imagining it?

I am continuing to tinker with having nixos on a oneplus 6, in spite of adhd

Just need to get it to boot successfully, and from that it’ll be much easier, writing out config and resolving the issues as they appear

one conversation I had with a tanker

: Lots of feeligs. Feel it up, way up.

: “Oh my god! TALKING TO TANKER?! Is that what you just said to me? I can’t BELIEVE you were talking to a tanker!”

: You’re saying it really loud, but it’s not coming out right. Maybe add more indignation?

: “So you have just… just… taken this tanker that was at the docks and TALKED to it, right?!” (Point at the sea, where the tanker is located.) “Engage in political discussion with a tanker right there in front of a cargo crane, because you wanted to? In the HARBOUR?!”

: More.

: “RIGHT THERE IN THE HARBOUR?!”

: MORE.

: “GIVING DOCKWORKERS A LITTLE… DOCKS-LIB-SHIP-TALK-SHOW?!”

Besides the bad attitudes, there’s no way to change the gender marker in the documents… at least meds are easy to get, that makes it slightly better, but for those who couldn’t change the documents before the ban staying in the country isn’t a comfortable option.

Wait it’s not only me? I thought RU authorities were blocking them… I quess it’s not them, but something else

Invidious is the only way I can see images in community posts, and I used invidious all the time instead of youtube, sad to see that the servers are struggling

Last time I checked there was an issue with YT’s newest ways to break compatibility, and no servers were carrying the fix at that time, so I just went to YT (in private tabs always) with distracting elements deleted from the pages via ublock origin

Wish Allende had taken Castro’s warnings seriously so that 9/11 wouldn’t have happened

Wine is the only way I know of to run Windows stuff on Linux, other things build on top of Wine (Proton is based on Wine and is oriented for game support, Lutris is a game-oriented launcher that helps with using Wine, etc).

A bit of pedantry: Wine is a compatibility layer, it captures Windows calls and makes them happen using its own libraries and capabilities of the operating system.

Documentation: I recommend Arch wiki - it is one of the best wikis and (mostly) works for non-Arch distros, too

I recommend getting comfortable with the terminal, and after that - understanding how to troubleshoot an unbootable system (for example if GRUB goes ) using livecd environment. And also try to learn Vim on comfortable pace, if you happen to like it, it’ll be great. Also make sure you have regular backups of important data.
