you know the thing with studying computer science ~as a joke~ is that… i actually want to do it not-as-a-joke, but i don't have the energy for university at all, that's why i gave up on linguistics, and i don't have the energy to learn things that are hard for me, like maths, and so i'm kind of stuck in this weird "i'm finishing this intro to programming class but then i'll probably give up" space that makes everything feel very useless and that takes the joy out of things pretty fast.
sorry i feel like hiding for being a 25 year old who's just now learning to code, at uni, which both feels super embarassing idk
I'm still embarassed that I don't seem to get pointers at all, even after a LOT of trying to understand and loads of different explanations, but at least they won't be part of the exam to the extent that I thought they would be and that is such a relief

How would you model executive dysfunction in a video game? Ideas:
Depression: A character that just sits down and ignores button input at random.
ADHD: Internal monologues that overlap NPC dialogue. A mission list that randomly rearranges/drops objectives. Random camera jumps. 80% of highlighted objects are irrelevant.
Anxiety: Threat indicator highlights all NPCs. Gun is pulled out without input at random. All the many objective markers are shown at all times and are huge.

I'm kind of tired, but I also want to repot my cacti

I spent my evening eating fries and drinking Ayran on a bench in front of the Freud museum and ranting passionately about uni things and it was great.

full offense but why would anyone *BUY* mastodon advertising
if you have a bit of time and can make some furry art im sure you can easily promote your shit for free
I love it so much and I've been scared to listen to any other versions of… that wonderful concept… for years now.
POINTY NOSE
IT'S A REVOLUTION I SUPPOSE
I might have understood the thing ✨
I am very frustrated because I do not understand the thing that I thought I understood

This is a photo of a crashed kiosk advertising the menu and offers at a popular Norwegian pizza restaurant chain. It shows that the kiosk was running facial recognition and basic sentiment analysis on the people looking at it.
Based on the number of people who sent me this on Twitter, it’s clear that people care and are unhappy with corporate surveillance.
The worst bit? Compared to what Google and Facebook do daily and at scale, this is a toy.
