If this was not the timeline I live in, I would laugh myself unconscious at that title.

This is triggering me really good. Especially the part about seniors competing with juniors. Has this person ever met .... people?

Might as well catch those, who run up super close so that the bruises are extra crispy.

Create a live USB stick and demonstrate it to her, without deleting Windows. Bonus points if you rice the fuck out of it with some kawaii shit for your GF and make Sims 4 work with Wine.

The golden age of social networks is over. Even if a comment section is not full of Russian bots, it's either full with ChatGPT bots OR some crawler bots that farm content. That's good, people need to stop their naive approach towards social media, that we've had so far. Communication will probably become more intimate as a counter-reaction. Until then, there is no need to fight for something that is simply obsolete.

Reddit has a huge user base, that is their value. They generate a lot of data every second, which can be sold. Of course this is technically possible on other platforms, but they do have it right now right here.

The conscious work with your karma is necessary. If you you want to enter Nirvana in the future, you need to start dissolving your karma (your behavior, psychological tendencies, etc.) now.

You have a seed in you, the Buddhata, which is the core of your consciousness. This core collects all the experiences and lessons throughout every lifetime. Even if you are born with a different gender, in a different culture, the tendencies, reactions and cravings will be the same. Your way of being stays the same, as long as you don't work on yourself. If you want to change profoundly, in a way that persists throughout lifetimes, you need to work on yourself. This means that you have to study yourself, your behaviors (physically, emotionally, mentally) and then change your behaviors according to the eight-fold principles.

Here is the thing, we will touch a very advanced point here: Just changing your behavior will only persist a little. You have your psychological tendencies, preferences, cravings, etc. because your Buddhata is trapped in psychological aggregates. An aggregate is a psychological function. For example, in one moment one of your aggregates tells you that you'd like some ice cream. In the next moment another aggregate says, that you wanted to have that beach body by summer time and you shouldn't eat this ice cream. Then another aggregate takes over your attention and you end up binge-watching Netflix shows. These aggregates are carried over from lifetime to lifetime and keep us trapped in our typical behavior.

So here comes the advanced aspect: these aggregates need to be destroyed inside of us. This is called psychological death and needs thorough meditation, contemplation of oneself and finally the help of the deities, who have the power to dissolve these aggregates. This dissolution can take several incarnations, until the essence, the Buddhata, is finally free of all karmic tendencies and debts and can pass into Nirvana (karma = repeating cycles, Nirvana = beyond cyclic existence).

If you want to know more about this process, you can study the following course. It's Gnostic, but its core is esoteric Tibetan Buddhism: https://glorian.org/learn/courses-and-lectures/bhavachakra-the-wheel-of-becoming
