solving Rubik's cubes is how I keep my hands busy, it's extremely satisfying and tactile. I do it constantly at my desk, basically whenever I'm thinking or watching something.
I also love putting a blanket between my legs and rubbing them together, it feels like it releases all of my stress and anxiety and gets me super cozy.
a nuanced take on the internet, I don't believe it
the YouTube one, are you kidding me? I could find a free course on how to do nearly anything, I could just scroll through a playlist and instantly learn months worth of material.
money can be exchanged for goods and services
I do this too and it's awesome
yes that's what euphemisms are for
I've been installing a lot of things written in rust recently, and I've noticed a trend between them. They're all stable, fast, and very user-friendly. I don't really have to fiddle with them nearly as much. I think there's a lot that goes into this, but it really boils down to: rust is safer and prevents huge categories of bugs, it's incredibly stable and requires less debugging and maintenance, it has extremely high level abstractions to make development quick and less verbose, and it has the best tooling I have seen for any language. It enables developers so effectictively that the things that are usually tedious and difficult become easy and potentially mandatory, and so you just get better software.
I know that sounds pretty abstract and opinionated, but having used the language for several years now, and especially coming from Java, I have really felt an incredible difference - I stopped having to constantly fix breaking Gradle builds and JVM version management, I stopped getting null pointer exceptions, and I had much more powerful tools for building abstractions. When you see how much control and power rust gives you while still keeping you safe, it's just night and day compared to the especially old languages like C.
Basically, anything written in rust will be better if it can enable developers to spend their time working on useful features instead of fixing bugs, fiddling with build systems and fragile legacy infrastructure cobbled together from dozens of third party tools.
they're not "calling someone a groomer", they're specifically calling LGBT people groomers. as in all of them. even if accusing a single person of being a groomer, you need evidence. this is a coordinated hate campaign intended to whip people into a frenzy about a "threat from within taking over our great country". it's fascism.
buy floss picks. I floss daily and it takes all of 30 seconds.
Rust. I've been using it for a while, and I've been using more software written in it lately. Stuff you make with it is just better in most ways. In other languages, you have to go above and beyond to make your code fully correct, safe, user friendly, and every trait I value in software. Rust makes those things easy, and so people are more willing to do them, and so things that get made in it are better. Oftentimes it's just a matter of pulling in a crate and adding a few lines of code.
one of my favorite things about helix is how easily you can check the keybinds for certain actions - just space-? and then you can see a list of every command available (by description) and their keybinds, if they have one
I can see how you would think that, but it's really both. The mechanical sensation of turning the cube is very satisfying and I make a lot of quick flicking motions with my fingers in predefined patterns. I solve pretty much passively, automatically by now, and never time myself.
I think nearly anything can be a stim. It's really about what the experience is like to the person doing it, not whether it looks like stimming to you from the outside. Please try not to invalidate anybody's stim. If you're confused, ask questions about their experience.
