Lemmy seems to be anti-AI, at least from my impression, but I am hopeful that AI will help invigorate the open source software world. If people can code better, faster, cheaper, safer (more secure) that will surely apply to open source as well. AI coding tools could bring on the Linux mainstream revolution. Imagine thousands of autonomous agents refining software for Linux. There could be a glut of driver support, apps coming to Linux, and so much more. I am hopeful about it.
We are the ones with 'invisible illnesses'. They are every bit as real as a physical disability, or other organs/body systems not working.
You don't tell someone to 'man up' when they have diabetes, so why say it to someone who has a mood disorder?
I feel your pain! Sometimes I feel like I'm 'unworthy' of being helped. I try to remind myself that it's not my fault my brain doesn't work right, and there are tons of people out there who have no issue helping people like me, like us.
All my life, I've watched the US slide. But it's crazy it's falling apart right now. Seems surreal for some reason.
I care about Americans and America. There are many good people, who care about me, and us. They deserve to thrive in a secure, prosperous country. I don't want to discount a nation just because of the idiots.
Seems to be a cultural thing. Here in Canada I see mL and L most often for drinks.
One quirk of metric I have taken a liking to recently, is in Japan, apparently they measure their object dimensions in mm. 'The size of one sheet of Letter paper in mm is 279.4mm x 215.9mm.' I don't know why, but for some reason I like this.
I went to the states a couple years back. Went to a tavern and was deciding on a beer. Bartender overhears I'm Canadian and tells me the size of the pints in decilitres 🙄
For what it's worth, I'm pretty comfortable with FL oz from reading soda cans and stuff. I just find it crazy how unintuitive metric is to some.
I appreciated his effort, I just thought it was funny
