Loool, all the people who are trying to help you troubleshoot are 1) probably correct and 2) completely missing the point. I have a Windows desktop, a Mac, and a Linux desktop at home and this kind of shit only happens on Linux these days.
Weird about Syncthing, it works for me on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android. But I find file permissions difficult so that could be it.
It’s nice for my use case: I tend to download things on my phone but I often want them stored permanently on my computer, so I just dump them in a Syncthing folder and It takes care of the transfer automatically. Once it’s on my computer my backup program (Backblaze) will back it up too. But not everyone has that particular use case so it’s not for everyone.
That’s with cause.

Lest you think I’m bragging, the one before that was Omegaverse fanfic.
When anthropologists study people who still hunt and gather for their food (e.g., the Hadza), what they do more than anything is… nothing in particular. Not hunting, foraging, building, repairing weapons/clothing/housing, socializing, etc. just… chilling.
Their lives are incredibly hard and I wouldn’t trade places with them, but the idea that the natural state of people is hustling is false. People hustled for their food, then rested once they had it. Some days they hunt from dawn to dusk, other days they found a beehive and chilled.
Black is white, up is down and short is long And everything you thought was just so Important doesn’t matter
i think that a lot of the value of art comes from the effort.
Many things that we do are only worthwhile because of the difficulty.
I think this is one of the biggest disconnects between people who create art and people who don’t (me). I don’t understand this sentiment at all. I don’t care how much effort a piece of art took or what the process was, I care about the output. But I know lots of people who create art and this stuff about the process and difficulty really seems to matter to them. Which is fine, they are entitled to like what they like, but I just don’t get it.
I don’t like AI art because it steals from artists and looks like crap, but the fact that it’s easy doesn’t matter to me.
I wonder if this is part of the disconnect between artists and AI boosters (I am neither).
This is an underappreciated benefit of the Web starting out as a bunch of documents, and then becoming an application platform. Even web apps are very text-first. Copy/past and crtl+F tend to work on most pages. And the fact that most views can be accessed via URL is handier than many people realize.

Lots of good answers here. You might want to read up on Existentialism, a line of philosophy grappling with exactly this problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existentialism
That you know of.
True, but getting some details wrong seems to fit with the theme of the meme.
I like the iNaturalist app: https://www.inaturalist.org/. When I see something I’m interested in whether plant or animal, I upload a picture and it tells me what it thinks it is. And they’re trying to collect good data about flora and fauna so there are volunteers who review submissions and agree or correct it, so it’s not just an algorithm doing the work. Obviously when you upload it it’s a computer making a guess but people usually review the uploads later, and you can get emails with the results of those reviews.
Someone else mentioned Merlin for birds, which is cool because it can do image ID or bird call ID.
Oh I’m married so 1) the bar to get laid is lower 2) there’s a ceiling on the amount of poon I can land in a week. Really frees me up to do important things like fart around on Lemmy.
Hell yes. I’ve written a unit price calculator, a tip calculator, a “how many plates do I need to put on this barbell to reach X weight?” app, a “am I connected to the Internet” app, and a few other small things. Other people have already written apps like these. But these apps work the way I want them to, and they were good learning experiences.
Chase poontang all day every day. Not even joking, I know myself.
I mean, a lot of “chasing” would be working out, eating healthy, and earning money, but I know why I’d do those things.
You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
I feel like promotion would ruin the point of the game though. If any pawns get promoted they should probably become the other player’s pieces (i.e., class traitors)
