three hard drives died yesterday :abunhdcry: Now, I got 6 good magnets :abunhdhappyhop:

Note to self: Always convert pdfs from the internet archive to djvu :abunhd:

@SteelWool Can you work on those skills? there are techniques for information retention and self-management. With those two in the bag a new attempt sounds plausible.

KOreader has a screensaver feature that’s wonderful, but I wish I could control how often a specific Image gets displayed. I tried to add an N amount of simlinks pointed to a single image so that image would be displayed more times but simlinks are not supported :abunhdcry:

@SteelWool In my experience there’s always a point in any curriculum where they expect you to carry the challenges undemanded. I never managed to get pass that point but by observing my peers those who could pull the weight by themselves managed to graduate.

The guarantee needed is simply, can you get through those challenges by your own hard work and will? Is there some missing prerrequisite that may be the cause of that friction in your previous attempts?

@SteelWool How far did you reach on each attempt? did you drop out for the same reason both times? was it burnout?

steam can do remote desktop across the internet, simple set up :abunhdhappyhop:

Is using chatgpt (or any LLM) to patch the holes in my education a legit use? :abunhd: I hope so :abunhdhop:

at this point being a script-kiddie sounds better than being a vibe-coder :abunhd:

hence becoming proficient in a foreign language will both open new doors and give you paris syndrome :abunhdsadpat:
