Chill man. Even my activity is dropping now, but that's just me thinking that Lemmy will be self-sufficient while I read my books. It's true that Lemmy is not as addicting as reddit, but that's for the best. I've actually gotten into new hobbies whose communities I might eventually join here.

2 days ago we had a moving up ceremony, and the speaker said that the secret to a successful life is "Honor your parents and Honor God". That advice wouldn't apply to everyone...

I remember when I woke up early in the morning for school, and played with a portable console while waiting for my mother to cook breakfast. A few minutes later, I realised I never had a console in the first place, and it vanished into thin air.

By good for the world work, you mean "Noble Professions"?

Do you have more information on that? I think I might have that, it also interacts in a vicious cycle with my emotional sensitivity (which is something I know most people with ADHD have)

If I'm posting a question, I simply won't have anything better to say to someone who answered with more expertise than me 🤷‍♂️. If I say thanks to everyone just for the sake of it, I feel like I'm clogging up the comment section.

Recently I have gotten interested in chess, and I want to learn more about it. Please suggest me any book about it— history, introduction or strategies, it is up to you!

Cambridge Analytica. Not only did they influence the elections and general political attitude of the Philippines, it also affected US elections as well. I think there was a genocide that was caused by targeted campaigns too, not sure where it happened, though.

Content for the sake of content is pretty bad too, so don't force yourself. Conversely, you also don't have to force yourself to be silent (which other people and I felt on Reddit).

Goddamit, the chains have returned

This is an issue of privacy, though. There is a reason why people dislike google or their neighbour having access to their information, however mundane.

Why do people even like inefficient, huge cars if they're not going to use most of its features, not even in the foreseeable future? Such a bloated design for an everyday car, and even more potentially dangerous at that... those Japanese cars have a more elegant and sleek design, as well as efficient. Well, I would like good public transportation too.

No matter how you look at it, all the pros of those kind of cars turn into cons when they're used as cars for everyday personal transport.
