  • Some times in school I did, and not only do I not regret it at all, I also see it as a necessary life skill.

    Many times people are put in deeply unfair situations where the rules are against them to begin with. If you play by the rules you will always lose.

    In school I had some teachers who didn’t give a fuck. They were not taking their job or teaching seriously but were still sadistic people taking some form of sick pleasure against students.

    In such cases, there is no established framework in these situations where it there was a class with knowledge transfer/teaching, where the student is properly put to a test to verify he indeed adquire such knowledge. You rather have a sick social exercise where a sociopath is in a position of power making student’s life hell and test results are semi random.

    In university I also had teachers who only pretended to teach. They would not be there for most of the time of the class or not show up at all, but they still made tests with the material that wasn’t teached and that students didn’t even know about. Of course many would just fail like this.

    In these cases I cheated.

    Life trows you these situations, and learning how to cheat is rather learning how to save yourself. I never cheated in legitimate situations, as I just didn’t feel I was being treated with injustice, and therefor didn’t even had the need to cheat.

    I don’t even know why we talk with other people in companies anymore. We can’t send emails because people don’t read them. So we are drowning in calls where we include the whole team where we talk about our weekends for 5 minutes at the start and spend half talking about what could have been a email. So on top we have bots that do these summaries so people can be sitting on calls only paying half attention to then not read the summaries anyway.

    I don’t quite get why massive Gnome changes would imply a death of Desktop Linux. There are so many great alternatives to it. It’s been many years that Gnome has been considered bad by many, and that many have used alternatives. I just think it’s positive that Gnome continue to get worse, because like that more distros may default to better alternatives to begin with.





  • Oh yes definitely. We get way to much screen time. And I also feel the same when I sometimes don’t really want to think too much in the evening. I’ve come to not play certain games I deem a bit too much. Elden Ring comes to mind. I like souls like, and I did play Lies of P recently which I enjoyed. But Elden Ring looks way to long and might be a hard game.
