I'm pretty sure someone will accuse me of reading my own trauma into this, but AgentMasterRace mentions also being chronically ill. No mention of timing between Ex significantly imroving and deciding that they had "better options", but the sad reality of life is that many people you love, including friends, will never care for you the way you might care for them, and once they have "better options" will cast you aside, even if you're the reason they have those options in the first place.

Human relationships are brutal sometimes. I still choose to treat others the way I would want to be treated, and some people _actually_ reciprocate, and you eventually learn who is who in your life, but this requires that you be open to the fact the majority won't, and that you will sometimes feel betrayed and used. You just have to accept that it's your decision to make, and decide what kind of person you want to be.

Other commenters are also probably right to one extent or another, the dynamic of the relationship probably changed pretty dramatically and that can create problems regardless.

Anyway, poor old AgentMasterRace probably feels like a depressing episode has turned into something they'd rather it didn't. Sorry for pontificating over your traumatic(?) event with allusions to my own. If I'm reading the meaning of their username correctly though, I feel less bad about it, lol.


Wise tender, and traumatically true words.

Same. Given that no Wayland compositors implement it, or anything like it, and from some of my surface level reading about how compositors work, I get the impression Wayland is particularly ill-suited for this feature. I don't understand enough to understand exactly why, or why a new Wayland "protocol" would be required, though that seemed to be the answer. I hate not having this feature, it makes me feel trapped in an entire desktop paradigm I don't desire to be locked into.

Is it called Odysseus because it's always spitting out verbose bullshit?

Thanks so much for the heads up. I loved Freenet as a concept back in the day and used to devote a significant chunk of my tiny hard drive to trying to help out. I looked it up a few months ago and honestly thought I was experiencing some kind of memory dailure when I saw the new project under that name. Was wondering what the project I was so excited for had _actually_ been called all those years back. Now I know what happened, and where to find the project I actually liked.


Disagreeable, passionate people are passionate about doing projects that go against the grain. It's really obvious to anybody actually asking the question instead of just being rhetorical and not giving it any actual thought. The answer is a commpetely obvious one, but one which makes some people uncomfortable, such that they'd rather not confront it, lest they have to confront its implications.


Anything that wants to traverse your filesystem could do so trivially from a wineprefix, but stuff like sniffing your browser extensions might be harder depending on the technique.


I've formally studied gamedev, but haven't done anything in over a decade, but even before you get to the thorny issue of anti-cheat sustems, games rely on running at a(n often very) low level and doing unconventional things. I imagine they're one of the hardest things there are to sandbox without causing massive levels of breakage. But someone more knowledgeable about either side of the equation (sandboxing and/or game development) might be able to shed more light.


I'm so sick of it. I'm so fucking sick of it.


Our perceptions about the past will be further and further shaped by an oroborous of AI hallucinations and embellishments.


Honestly if your site is buggy in a way that effectively breaks the browser, maybe you should be punished.


I recommend 14 days in jail for the site owner, and, if egregarious, the engineer as well.

Not life ruining but just enough to be annoying. Just like their website.
