    Is it normal to not have any friends?

    That doesn’t sound good. Feel free to vent. Friendship is about a shared journey, not a contest.

    Is it normal to not have any friends?

    My The really fun part is that people will never know if you’re serious or not. It’s easy to say discount anything trained before 2022. How long will that last? Hallucinations sourcing hallucinations as fact. It’s where we’ll end up. Not that I really care (since I’m dead anyway). I...

    An ‘evil’ activity is causing financial problems across South Africa

    I’d call “evil” the misappropriation of funds. Say you enrich your immediate family at the cost of your community. Gambling is an effect, not the cause.

    Things that irritate you - Part 4

    I actually had to google how to downgrade my 365 with the Office Deployment Tool. The bug I encountered (Invalid Session Handle) was supposedly fixed but magically came back. Now I’m on a version before that AI BS which just works.

    What book are you reading at the moment ?

    I just finished “The Stars are Legion” by Kameron Hurley. A.K.A. Lesbians in Space. Pretty damn good. Considering how few female sci-fi authors I’ve read I was quite surprised. A main character in an all-female space-opera which was just as bad-ass as Jack Reacher. Recommended.

    What book are you reading at the moment ?

    I’m working my way through the Hugo Award winners and nominees. Having read the top 200 sci-fi books on GoodReads there’s a lot to go. The last one (picked at the random) was The Light Brigade by Kameron Hurley. Don’t ditch the novel after the first interrogation chapter. Yes, you’re right...

    Depression.

    You do get what I’m saying. Grass and stars are symbolic. Smile at a stranger and get a smile in return. Again, not necessarily literal. You understand.

    Depression.

    @AnimateX You’ll never be happy unless you can be happy by yourself. In the middle of nowhere, no hope, no future. If you can appreciate looking at a blade of grass or a star, nobody can take anything from you.
