Work on Free Open Source Software. Seriously, I fucking love software engineering and I can’t really imagine doing anything else with my life. In fact, that’s kinda my current plan - work towards financial independence and then work on things that matter to me, on my own terms. I really hope I won’t get burned out somewhere in the process.

Same as you but both for toenails and fingernails. Fabric catching on a rough edge of freshly cut nail is like the highest level of sensory nightmare for me. Because of this I spend so much time meticulously filing them and I just hate it.

I think as far as holidays go, it’s pretty decent:

• I get some work free time.
• It’s a distraction from the fact that there’s no fucking daylight which makes me miserable.
• I get some gifts and give some gifts. It’s not about their material worth but it’s cool that people actively try make someone else happy. We don’t do that everyday.
• There is a lot of colorful lights. I love colorful lights.
• I get a lot of time to hyperfixate on some kind of programming / linuxing computer stuff. Maybe gaming.

I feel like a lot negatives of Christmas don’t affect me because: I don’t watch TV or ads, don’t go much to shops or any public places for that matter, I don’t really use social media outside of Lemmy. Also, I don’t have a big extended family.

I just fought them off in my apartment. Everything they said is correct. I just want to add that I bought some kind of spray to kill them and it was very effective. Got rid of them in two applications.

Yes. No to the Reddit’s size though.

Haha, no worries! There’s definitely some truth in this.

I got recently diagnosed with autism and r/autism is the reason I started using Reddit again after more than a year. I would prefer using Lemmy for this but there’s barely any activity in autism community on Lemmy. Yeah, I know, I should be the change I want to see. I promise I will try to post something there!

True. This is one of the reasons why I only help people with their computers using remote desktop now. I’m so done with doing this verbally over the phone.

I think vast majority of my friends wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between “browser”, “search engine” and just “Google”. Yes, it seems weird but TBH does it really matter? They can use internet just fine.
