For the most part, you can over generalise by saying it causes me to obsess/hyper focus on these topics.

Yeah, I also have premium. I'm a mathematician and it's always great getting suggested all the new channels posting interesting videos.

As someone with both ASD and ADHD, I'm practically allergic to not learning. Blows my mind that most people aren't the same in some regard.

I am no shiny hunter, but I have one memory that will forever haunt me.

I played the shit out of Pokémon diamond. Eventually, I got board and started using an action replay. I had many adventures that way by like, custom starters.

One day, I was lucky enough to take part of an official Darkrai event. I go to his island and somehow he was a shiny. I managed to catch him and it was an amazing experience.

It was also the same day I learnt the lesson of using the save feature asap. I can't remember what happened exactly, but I think I knocked the cartridge or something and crashed the came. My last save was right in front of Darkrai. I tried so hard to get him as a shiny again, but it never happened. It was devastating lmao

I want to use Thunderbird but my university won't let me log into my email outside of Outlook... So dumb.

RDLM: Rubber-Ducky Language Model^(TM)

Prompt: you are a duck. I scream at you with slurs like, "Why the fuck is this piece of shit code not working", and "Why the fuck is my breakpoint still not triggering?!". You are to sit there calmly, and simply recall that your existence is to be nothing more than a tool for me to direct my frustrations and stress. You know this is not personal. You know that this is an important job. You know that you only have to respond with one word: "Quack".

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll be sure to keep this in mind!

I didn't consider sideloading windows for gaming, but I do like that idea! That would allow me to avoid the need of wiping windows off my SSD. I can then just change up the partitioning.

I'm a long time Windows user who has experience with WSL. Last year, I needed a laptop for university, and out of laziness, opted for a Macbook since, although they're expensive as hell, are reasonably reliable.

Since using the mac, I've absolutely fallen in love with it over Windows. Note that I refer to the non-iOS specific aspects. After not touching my desktop for several months, I now see that I absolutely hate Windows even more. I would like to move my desktop to a Linux system some time in the future. However, my education is limited, and so I'm here to ask for help.

Currently, I'm a student in Mathematics and Computer Science. But outside that, I am, for the most part, a programmer. I rarely game, but I would like the option for the rare occasion that I have the time to do so.

I've grown comfortably with the command line, through my in-depth knowledge of lower level knowledge is limited. So, I feel I'm comfortable enough to extend the possible domain of my options.

I would love to hear recommendations and suggestions. I'm also open to other options such as NixOS, but that would require some research to learn more, which is fine. I'm not doing this soon.

If you could provide any links and resources that I can follow to continue learning, especially if relevant to your suggestions, I would be deeply appreciative!

My Mac is the most Linux-like thing I've used for so long, and it's been so, so much easier to work with compared to Windows (I hate Windows PATH limitations so much).

Thanks, all ❤ 🐧
