    This to me reads that you have a serious self control issue. If you need to use therapy to limit your gambling, you’ve fucked up. Learn and practice some self control. You don’t need therapy, you don’t need to stop gambling or cut off ties with your dealer, just stop doing it. This is like needing to have your parents tell you to do your homework or something. You are in control of your life. You will feel much more empowered if you do it yourself.





  • While that’s true, there are objectively different levels of ‘just working’ though.

    I’ve never spent so little time googling how to fix things as I do with Ubuntu or Mint. It’s much more frequently needed and time consuming on other Linux OSs, iOS, Windows, Android. Haven’t personally used Mac.

    Also, I’ve always found a fix on Ubuntu. The same can’t be said for other OSs.

    That’s just personal examples, but the general idea still stands: different systems have a different amount of bugs, (or worse, ‘features’) and the difficulty of fixing them isn’t the same for everything either.



  • Any phone larger than my 2016 iphone SE. I have a fairphone and it’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a phone but it’s SO BIG. It has a one handed mode, but that turns itself off whenever you tap the back button, which is so annoying it’s making me aggressive. I used to lie in bed, chilling, looking at memes with one hand while the other arm was cosily under the blanket. That’s a thing of the past. I also can’t rest the hand I have chronic pain in because I always need to use both hands to not keep dropping my phone and reach all of the screen.
