Me when

when it is never tail time ever

Is this supposed to be self-deprecating or did you forget to switch accounts?

Honestly I’m not doing good with the rural shut-in USA campaign, especially with my poor rolls and lack of party. I don’t like this game. I can cut and pan-fry vegetables, so I got goin’ for me which is nice… hopefully a good skill to have as a N.Korean child.

Also I feel like hardly anybody would get across the DMZ as a child (as an adult still sounds a bit implausible). Even learning Korean via English (without raising suspicion) seems unlikely without internet so I am just expecting a Dwight-like story about escaping to China. EDIT: I see you changed the language bit

I would take this deal. (meaning fate on the tracks)

Can they fix some of my medical problems (cyborg stuff, if possible?), and/or get me out of here? If not, this video: THOSE DAMN ALIEN BASTARDS ARE REAL. (Gianni Matragrano as Duke Nukem)

I have a similar issue… I have done slightly more than nothing, I really struggle trying to think of small projects that actually work for me.

The few things I’ve done I stop at a certain point because I have no motivation for the actual content* or there are platform* issues. One thing I made was maybe usable but was likely too much** of a time sink for me.

Though I keep trying other things hoping enough pieces fit that I can think of something.

EDIT: I don’t know if it is any help but what I’ve mentioned were text formats+loaders.

You got scammed, bro. 4-stroke lungs are a much better deal. (uni-directional breathing, air sacs before/after lungs. birds, crocodiles, dinosaurs)

If it wasn’t clear, I am talking about physical preservation (not “uploading”, as I know that would be a copy).

Yeah, I am at the point a med-sci student could convince me to let them attempt to preserve my brain.

My life now is such that life in a VR* network ran by non-profit scientists in the future would be an improvement. Though I would like to have options for existence, so long as homeostasis is not an issue (ideally organic and symbiotic systems rather than fully tech). Toasters should get to enjoy nature once-in-a-while, too.

*= Which maybe you could say is Virtual Retirement

Honestly, I live a slow life. Time is the main thing that I have. I dabble with programming, but not really for android and I don’t even use a “smart assistant”, I don’t even have mobile service due to cost and lack of need.

My idea of making life easier was ripping the carpet out of my room. It is much easier to sweep a wood floor and I can do it at any time.

Even the things that I would want to automate in my life I don’t think I could make a robot to accomplish it (honestly, I have a dusty 3D printer after upgrading to a beta dual extruder pushed complication a bit too far for me, as I already disliked the design/tolerances iteration process).

My main issues right now are related to living on the edge of nowhere, no way to meet people+nothing to do, no ability to move (without being homeless), low water pressure, polyester clothes/sheets that don’t get clean. None of those are really fixable with automation. EDIT: Also (lack of) healthcare. That could be automated (particularly just for better-than-nothing) but not by me, obviously.

Probably because in most cases, doing so requires a tradeoff of some sort. Hardware, design and planning, upkeep, data privacy and reliance on external factors/services etc.

So when it doesn’t fit together and people don’t even have any real source of help (not to mention enshittification) it should be no wonder that the existing way (or “live with it”) is the only real option.

Also there is also the angle of some “easier” options that sound nice on paper but end up creating their own problems (or are just too expensive to be viable).
