  • I gotta do this today. I liked Ubuntu but I need something less thinky like Bazzite.

    I tried it earlier, but my flash drive fried (didn’t know it) ended up with like 4 partitions on my nvme, none of which would boot. No kernel found in grub, was able to boot into recovery from the stick, did the media test BAM failed sector. Went in to try and wipe the drive, magically had a 6.98 available space and the whole drive was write protected.

    Look man those life-size dolls.

    I don’t get em either. They look like a lot of work. They weigh 80lbs but can’t walk on their own, clean themselves, and their eyeballs can fall out.

    So if it’s “connection” with something “human like but not” ok I guess I can see it. Probably better for the species

    How the fuck do people do it? Like is there something else more wrong with me?

    It says it’s AI. It reads like an AI. I’m desperately lonely too, but it doesn’t remotely come close to even a hint of being a real person.

    Maybe it’s the user interface? The constant awareness of the AI girlfriend URL?





  • So this brings up a funny story.

    IDK when, but I was on a trip, thinking about my ex wife(then girlfriend at the time) with my parents somewhere and they had these vibrating back massager things. Usually they’re like 4 wooden balls on sticks attached to a wooden handle. I knew how much my ex loved it. Anyway I thought “dude fucking brilliant” and I bought it for her and my parents were like: “Uh, ok? You sure she’s going to like that?” “I’m like are you kidding me? The number of times I have to get sore hands from giving her a back massage is incredible!” Oh, I’m like 15 at the time.

    Well, I gift it to her, and with the smallest hint of embarrassment says she absolutely loves it. That night she thanks me again, saying it made things so much easier, in kind of a flirty tone. I completely miss all social cues always so this didn’t register. Sometime later I come over and she wants one of the back rubs, and I’m like “hey, grab that tool I got!”

    She responds with “I’m not in the mood for that, besides it’s out of batteries.”

    I thought I was going to fold into myself. “How many back rubs have you given yourself?” “Oh, like none. Just the fun stuff.” The heaviest levels of cringe hit, knowing how many people saw me buying this for my girlfriend completely oblivious to what it would be used for.
