Not everyone can afford to be vegan yknow?

So why don't you get off your high horse privileged ass and consider that this vegetarian person is obviously trying to mitigate some damage by not eating meat.

Is that "minimum"?

I agree, I use Duolingo because it's good at making me comeback to learn. But I use it for vocabulary as I feel it is best for that. It was never very good at teaching grammar.

But I don't know why it is not good at teaching grammar. I don't think it's that difficult to replicate textbook exercises in a fun way. All I can think why they don't have good grammar exercises is that it's some dark pattern I don't recognise.

I thought Duolingo was terrible for grammar.

This is very inefficient, they should be using a switch case.

I like talking to interesting people.

I guess so do I.

Hard. I'm at that age where friends and family start dropping like flies and all I can do is watch knowing I'm next.

I don't want to be insensitive, but are people really dying so fast these days? That sucks.

Not really. I used it a few times when it was new not much after that.

I don't have an ID, but I've found that it can be a graceful teacher at times, explaining things in different ways and a lot more patient. Maybe it might be useful to you as well when you have difficulty understanding something.

Thanks for taking time to answer my questions. You should stick around (if this isn't a fake account). Lemmy is very nice and accepting of people from all across. Most people believe in FOSS and helping others.

I am very curious to know about how you found out about lemmy and why you use it. And why did you want to do an AMA.

Also how has life been? How are you doing?

Has AI been any help?

You seem to have worked as an exotic dancer. How's retirement like?

I think they're laughing about how it can be misunderstood as the online meme Sigma.

need to find a wife with 2 jobs if I wanted a house

Or you could split the difference and get two wives with one job each.

Or you could get four wives with a part time job each.

Or you get 8 wives with one job each and now you are making profit over the money you need to buy a house.

My point is

Software tools -

• obsidian for keeping track and record keeping and noting ideas.
• Obsidian Canvas, Miro - for mood boarding, currently using canvas but I am looking for an alternative that's FOSS and very light weight.
• paint to make diagrams and concept ideas.
• Typora - good distraction free free writing tool.
• Keep - quick idea noting, but slowly shifting over to obsidian mobile. Unfortunately it isn't as intuitive on mobile, need to configure it.

I am only making use of these so far, but I am also currently on the lookout for a map creator tool. The mainstream ones are either to anemic or paid.

Idea Generation Tools -

• Immersion techniques, subscribing to the communities I want to use for inspiration to learn more in depth about them, watching videos, shows, reading articles
• I have an Idea bucket from where I pick and mix in with other ideas to come up with something.
• Deviant art, Reddit, other socials for interesting art to take inspiration from.
• recently I've also been creating playlists on all the social media platforms.

How's the sequel? The OG was a unique in its horror. Though I can't say much for it's characters I quite enjoyed the vibes.

A Lil bit of column A and a little bit of column B.

But spreading misinformation on it definitely did hurt it.

Are there any transoutreach orgs you can contact?

A larger trans community might be able to help you with getting the right resources regarding this.

"stop stabbing me"

"Oh, you are very adversarial! How dare you ask me to stop stabbing you? This is how I make my money!"

Hell, even a lot of PUBLISHERS would rather keep their games running forever.

This is such a shit take that publishers want games running forever. The whole reason they get shut down is because they don't make a profit and if something that's not earning them money might as well be something that's going to take gamers away from their new game. So they'll of course shut it down. It's in their incentive.

Your arguments seem very disingenuous.

So much better, so much of a soul.

This is AI? 😭

How long does it take to sketch this in paint?

Yes perfect!
