Typically, people aren’t always bored, because otherwise, you are basically emotionally flat and depressed and soon will be suicidal. Have you seen kids that say they are bored? It just means they are not doing anything that interest them.

To get “unbored”, you most likely need to be doing something that is fun, and/or meaningful, and/or enjoyable, and/or worthy, and/or essential to survival (in a way, people who are bored may be having it too easy). It may be better to be doing something productive, personally or socially, than doing something just addictive.

Even being still meditating is doing something (like actively paying attention to the breath).

Eat them before you eat anything else. When you are hungry, foods tend to taste better, and your body is not trying to tell you to stop eating yet.

Wrapping a joint, the right way.

That’s probably for blissful living!

Excellent! Thank you for sharing. 👍

All of them is most likely the most accurate answer. The tilted examples would be: Genghis Khan is widely admired as a hero by the Mongolians and almost universally hated by others. Leopold II is admired by the Belgians but would be a criminal, probably crimes against humanity, today.

A Congolese man, Nsala, looking at the severed hand and foot of his five-year-old daughter who was killed and allegedly cannibalized by members of the Force Publique in 1904, as a result of Leopold’s policy.

You are right. The EMUI outside of China is still based on Android with its own eco-system, although the other EMUI is also based on HarmonyOS which may/may not be compatible with Android, especially in the future. It seems, the phone has disappeared from some international markets altogether, the countries being friendly to China or not, probably because consumers are worried that their phones wouldn’t be supported by critical apps.

Well, you squeeze them, and they squeeze you back. Typical. Like, the US is not expecting that.

Besides the chips, there are still the OS. It’ll take a while yet, if ever, for Huawei phones to gain traction again outside of China. What would you buy: Qualcomm/MediaTek/Huawei(SMIC) chip? What would you buy: Android/Huawei OS?

Yeah, even when I am in the “I feel terrible” mood, well, I don’t feel terrible ALL the time. I need to pay attention to the time that I don’t feel terrible.

Concentrate just at the tip of your nose where the breath touches the tip leaving the body, when your breath in, think “in”, when you breath out, think “out”. Determine to keep you mind at that, but be relaxed while doing it. Works well when you are already tired, i.e. at the time that you usually go to sleep.

This is like, thought replacement. It’s a “Buddhist” technique.

You can eat anything you like, as much as you like, followed by a pill. Sound like an environmental and social and poverty-problem disaster. Pretty much a theme of the Hunger Games.

I am always paranoid about having unknown wounds on my skin. Almost always chase it away, unless I really need to concentrate.

The first time because the cars will be coming from the left. The second time to make sure you didn’t misjudge the first time.

If you live in a country where the traffic directions reverse, you can teach the kid the opposite thing.

This is just a simple rule of thumb. Obviously, you don’t want anything to run into you in any directions, which is a real danger in a busy intersection.

Despite the Capitol’s riot, a survey showed 1/3 of Americans thought Biden’s presidency was illegitimate. The conservatives see the lawsuits as political prosecutions.

I’d say unless the non-trump voters come out to vote in a historical number like the last election, he stands a good chance of becoming a president again. And a number of states have passed laws that would make it harder for some subsets of voters to vote.

And still wondering if he might actually come back.

The 80/20 sounds like a good technique. Thank you.

If your account is that sensitive, generally no. Fastmail wouldn’t escape the court order to turn over some email account’ IPs either. Plus, for accounts that are not e2e encrypted, the law may just demand the contents of the account.

If you have the state actors as enemies, you have to dial up your securities to a different category altogether.

I migrated to ProtonMail out of curiosity after more than a decade, but when they turned over the IP address of a fucking CLIMATE ACTIVIST to police, I decided to halt that process

The police was able to get just the IP addresses. Hide your IPs with Tor for political activism, etc.

The governments probably stop functioning. Apocalypse ensues.

I of course don’t know the details of your doc. But people can misrepresent such scams, by misunderstanding (like in ponzi scams - even banks invest in these), by other scams (like task scam), by coercion (you do this, and we will do this, such as giving your account back, for you), etc.
