  • TIL about “Second Screen Viewing” and that Netflix pushes writers to make scripts and dialogues simpler to keep viewers who are on their phones engaged

  • Netflix had some good years, then it seemed like they were starting to get pretty inconsistent, and now it seems like they're entering their straight-up slop era.

  • My excitement for any given DS9 episode varies greatly depending on who the focus is in the episode

  • This is Vic Fontaine slander!

    (btw, fun thing to note... This is the first time I've gone searching for a trek gif and google images led me to a lemmy post.)

  • That was a close one

    Jump

  • it's reassuring at least we pick the very best, smartest and most qualified leaders to manage all this.

    Reminds me of that episode of Futurama: "Fortunately, our handsomest politicians came up with a cheap, last minute way to combat global warming."

  • How did he do that??

  • I don't think so. The joke is that you're supposed to put your arms up in the air to appear bigger when you run into bears, so bear-cop is suddenly intimidated when the perp does it.

  • With grief, the only way out is through. Unlike other mental ailments such as depression or anxiety, you're not going to find a cognitive distortion or flawed line of thinking that is responsible for the distress and can be challenged. Grief is logical, and we have to feel it until it becomes less intense.

    What we can do is modulate how much we're processing at any given moment to try to keep it manageable. Think of it like that saying, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time." You can't change the total size of the task, but you can control how big of bites you take.

    Finding what helps you reduce the "bites" will be personal, but starting with some general coping skills like "thought-stopping", meditation, or any activity that keeps your mind active and occupied is a good start.

  • MRW I decide to set up a home server

  • That's some top tier techno-jargon. Merry Christmas!
