if anyone is interested, ive been documenting my trip down the Linux rabbit hole:
https://youtu.be/NmuYQnQGCgI
also, the x60 arrived, as did the charger.
tommorow my ThinkCentre monitor will arrive so i can match the ThinkCentre mini-pc, full sized ThinkCentre PC and IBM+Lenovo ThinkPads.
next im either going to get another mini-pc or another x200 era ThinkPad.
>>9596
i uninstalled popOS and switched to Manjaro KDE like on my main desktop.

>>9603
Cool cheatsheet, very elegant.

it's funny, when i first made this thread i included a lot of stuff, some of which i don't even want now.
For instance, the steam deck now that i have a couple ThinkPads from both IBM to the IBM Lenovo transition era I'd rather use those instead.
don't want VR only, more video games or a better GPU.
And, i didn't include mini-pcs, of which i have 1 and have ordered another for a server i am crafting, only to realize im gonna need 1 or 2 more.
now im trying to figure out how i can put a GPU in this thing.
pic related ought to work

mini-pc arrived hooked it up to the thinkvision monitor now putting linux on it.
other mini-pc ought to arrive on the 14th.
also, im loving my x260.

invest in stocks, and stuff, similarly gambling could be a choice tho it can be very diminishing of course

>>9631
bumping because i need NEETbux

I've heard of taking pics and selling them as stock photos, it's not much but it's certainly low effort (if you like photography!)

>>9636
Realistically, how much could I make from this?

>>9649
Not much really. Depends on your strategy though, it would probably be hard to make serious money with it *now*, but if you circumvent stock agencies and go directly to buyers… maybe in the low hundreds (of dollars)

>>9642
Well, what do you wanna know?

>>9643
Who are you and what is you ageda

>>9644
I'm a 21 yo long-time resident of this imageboard, currently jobless and I don't have any agenda in particular. I've had some personal trouble with both 1, 2 and 3 and I've developed some coping strategies, that I could discuss

1 Go out everyday for a bit, look out the window often, make sure you talk to at least one person a day (beyond courtesies) IRL
2 Get a easy part time job that you're sure you will do well at even if all other things vary
3 Measure your worth by days left not by days lived

>>9644
You still around?

>>9532
ME TOO

>>9532

There used to be a lot easier ways to find community online and everything was so distilled into sameness from memes, style of discussion, etc. Every community felt unique. There's not a whole lot we can do about it, but I agree that immersing yourself in hobbies is the best way to avoid the isolation feelings (something that I've been neglecting to do myself recently and just stressing myself worrying if I fit into online spaces instead of just not giving a fuck as if it matters). It's tiring because at this point, I feel both a call to isolation and a call to not be alone. Both conflicting at once. It's within in this state of mind I find myself wondering just how much online really effects my mind, and if I should just take a break/hiatus from things again.

>>9619
wtf new tripfag untermensch?(This was not very nice of you to say that!)

>>9620
I hope this wasn't actually a ban. This new moderation style is beginning to give me shadows of the feeling I got when appleman took over lainchan.(USER WAS BANNED FOR THE COMEDIC TIMING)

….and me being a fucking idiot dumbass is besides the point.

>>9621
it was, im on vpn

Reading this was just like looking myself in the mirror. I started to feel paranoid and this over-self awareness about many things; especially if I need to do things outside. Feeling this sensation of being watched or recorded for no rational reason. I even talk alone so much, to the point that I think the objects around me are listening and having their own opinion. Social isolation in his overdrive I suppose.

>is it possible for loneliness and prolonged social isolation to cause psychotic symptoms? am i losing my mind?
yes to both, humans are inherently social creatures despite our attempts to tell ourselves otherwise. If you have a friend you can confide in, I would suggest talking to them at least a little bit (it could be about anything, even an online friend could suffice). I'd also suggest maybe going for a walk outside or changing your surrounding for a bit so you aren't caught up in the subtle monotony that can drive yourself insane when isolate. Even something as simple as cleaning your room or changing the curtains can go a long way.

As for the feeling of being stalked, I've been there and the best thing you can do is to repeat to yourself "its not true" and reminder yourself that you are but one person in a sea of a billion of people. While it may be true that some data firm is collecting your voting records, nobody truly cares to constantly record and track you. If that were the case, many petty criminals especially cyber criminals would be caught by now, there would constantly be a social worker at your doorstep at any given time, and society would have cameras watching us in the home (and no amazon and google products people willing put in their homes doesn't count, i'm talking legit gov Orwellian shit). The truth of the matter is that not only is that shit massively expensive and impractical for a gov (I've worked in gov, I know trust me) but its also a violation of privacy laws (which despite gov repeatedly trying to break with shit like the Patriot act and Prism, it always comes back to bite them in the ass and still many things slip under the radar because of the impracticality of it all). You aren't being watched, except for cookies on sites designed to advertise you useless shit and chances are you already most of that blocked with browser extensions. Just don't go on shady sites and align with shady people and you should be good.

It might be worth it to tell your psychiatrist about these delusions. At worst you could be schizophrenic, at best you could just be very autistic. I'm not a therapist or a psych medicine person though, I'm just an anon with too much free time.

yess but it got better for me after stopping some meds and i think if i talk to people more itll get better. (idk if recommended for people here)

>>9539
op here, i have been on virtually every main antidepressant and nothing has ever worked

>>8771
Understandable and respectable, fratello.

>>8762
He's going to get called that whether he likes it or not so might as well own it.

men say this and then have the most soulful personalities and then create evangelion

>>8793
ok, but i think it's weird to internalize it.

>>9556
i think it's weird that people play yume 2kki when .flow is better
