I would like to know if there is an "official" way to set an account as disabled. For now, I am plan on posting this on Asklemmy, changing my password to some random string that I won't remember, and then logging out. If I'd like to come back later, there's a chance of my account being revived through the "forgot password" process.

I am leaving Lemmy for good. I have spent a few months here, and the first few months were nice and positive. But now it feels much more Reddit-like. Most active communication here is happening at posts that I find negative. All this negative stuff is detoriating my mental health. I'd instead prefer to stay happy and remain ignorant until I personally experience the issues being raised here. 

Of course, a lot of people will disagree with this approach, and they are likely already coming up with comments to post on this thread that I'd find rude and thus negative. But I've seriously had enough of it.

I have a heavily filtered Reddit with a home page filled with people like me. The communities they are part of either don't exist on Lemmy or are not sufficiently active. I will be active with these people until the old Reddit front-end reaches EoL. Please prefer to answer the first paragraph over the rest.

PS: please don't judge me by my comments on my profile. I am a teenager and my personality is still maturing. I cringe at most things I do the next day after doing them.

Well, it depends on how you interpret their emotes. They constantly use that clown emoji, and so on. I interpret it as "not interested in talking to you" because, uh, I can't explain why. It's kind of because of all the circumstances in which I use those emotes when talking to my friends. I interpret their intent as how mine would have been. I frankly can't take them as anything else; it's a flaw.

Also, I didn't just start ghosting them for just this reason; it was usually for a few other reasons as well. For example, one of my former friends had habituated herself to calling people slang like dumbfuck on a regular basis. But I don't use such words when talking to my friends; I find them harsh. I kind of used to get upset whenever she'd call me by such slang, even when I had done nothing that could hurt her. We simply aren't compatible enough to remain friends. Her constant use of such emojis was merely a cherry on top, but a considerable one.

A lot of teenagers use it for some reason. It's annoying because I'm a teenager myself, so I have to deal with my friends using it all the time. I went as far as ghosting some of my friends because they use annoying emotes all the time.

Which instance? We should maintain a list of these instances to ensure we don't lose our data due to idiots like them.

I disabled shorts everywhere. Before I saw your post, I couldn't even recall YouTube having shorts. 

Also, Google tracks your everything, not just your YouTube history. You likely use Google Search a lot for adult content. Even a VPN and browsing on incognito mode might not save you. They have lots of ways track you.

Installed 22.04 few months ago, did my configs, and then subscribed to Ubuntu Pro (free for five devices). Now I can enjoy a stable experience for at least a decade.

I had it made by ChatGPT 3.5, so the theming is not perfect. I don't have the time to mess with this right now.

This loser spends his days trolling everywhere. He is an insecure jobless brat that nobody IRL gives a shit about, so he lives with negative attention online. This is the second time I am seeing him somewhere.

That just attracts certain creeps even more. They like nudes of unattractive people because it is its own kind of a validation that her boyfriend entirely demolished her trust for him (and that's a big kink of them), because there's no way she's couldn't tell she's not attractive and therefore wouldn't want everybody to body-shame her and that's why she shared the pictures with utmost trust.

I have seen such degenerates. They make incredibly disgusting and disheartening comments on the victim.

I also leave out little syntax errors and only only focus on the rough idea during my train of thoughts. And the variables, aren't really supposed to be implied as private or unused -- I do eventually meaningfully use them. If I have to prefix all my variables with a underscore to avoid the LSP, I might instead just disable the LSP. When I eventually turn the LSP back on, it tells me the actually unused variables and imports that I can now get rid of.

Because of the LSP, I used to write maybe three hundred lines of code per hour, but now I probably average at least five hundred or more.

I turn off LSPs during my train of thoughts. I don't want all red and yellow underline bullshit to disrupt my thoughts. Like, calm the fuck down. I WILL write the correct code eventually; just give me some fucking time.

Well, I use Neovim, so turning off the LSPs or restarting them is sufficiently simple.

When I work on a new project, or on a new feature, I temporarily turn off the LSP, and rely on the compiler to figure out where the code errors. Plain white text gives me the freedom to write whatever the fuck I want without any disruption. Of course, I eventually turn on the LSP again to fix the little issues.

I wish I was some animal or something. I am so tired of all the shit that I am going through.

This project was interesting. Recently, I've been digging into the functional programming paradigm. This is one of my first tries at it. I've been doing OOP until recently, but this project really was impressive to me. The whole implementation took about nine hours. Functional programming is much less convoluted. I spent more time programming than deciding on a good name for a certain identifier.

Not only is functional programming more efficient, but I can also see that it's much less tedious to write automated tests for. I only have to take care of the local scope of the function I am writing a test for; there is no need to deal with the parent's inherited mess or even any parent's mere state. I just have to write the test for the function.

I have scraped the Cambridge Dictionary to collect the data.

Although I've always believed that Google collects more, it seems that Meta gets maligned more frequently than Google in the eyes of the general public. Since then I've been growing curious on the matter. Should Meta deserve less respect on this subject than Google?

 

There have been reports of YouTubers I watch getting sick after eating food in third world countries. However, these countries are also home to a large number of people who do not get sick from eating the same food. I think this suggests that the locals may have developed stronger immune systems. What do you think?
