I live in a small apartment, and when standing in the middle of the kitchen you can see almost all of if. So when I have new people over I like to ask if they want a tour then point to that spot and tell them to go there, then I say "ok, look around, that's everything! Nice, huh?" There are generally only two different reactions: "Haha! Yeah, it is nice!" or "Oh, come on, it's not that bad!". I never say it in a way that makes it sound like I think it's bad or too small, but people who have the second reaction generally like bigger and "more".

It's the perfect size for me, wouldn't choose a bigger one even for the same price.

I've actually seen discussions online and met one person who said it's "K-DE" (kay-dee), so it's not a sure thing.

So now you'll have to find something else, hehe.

On the other side of this; I often feel like people think they already know what's being said and then interrupt or at least show that they aren't listening anymore but they actually don't know. So all that ends up happening is that they misunderstand and now the whole conversation has gotten bad. It's very common for people to say stuff to give context, and that might sound like that's all they're saying but they are just making sure the listener is aware of that context. And when people explain things over and over with different words it just means they're doing their best to describe something in a specific way and translating that into a conversation is not easy. It's either because they themselves aren't satisfied with how they said it and are actually showing you respect by really trying to find the right words. Or it's because they see that your understanding of what they said isn't what they really meant.

Don't ever think you know exactly what someone is saying until they show you they are satisfied with both their own explanation and your replies that show you understand. Show some respect to people by giving them the extra few seconds or minutes to get to where they need, especially with friends and family.

A reoccurring thing throughout my whole life with friends and acquaintances that have ADHD is just this, they think they know the whole story and that there's nothing more to it and that every second after that is wasted time etc. but SO many times that is a huge mistake. And it can easily fuck up relationships, it's not a good thing.

And just to be clear: I have ADHD, though mine works pretty differently than how it does for the vast majority of people. In no way saying better or worse, those words don't exist in this topic for me, just differently. And every single person is different from the next, both including and excluding any kind of "disorder" (not a fan ot the word). Just saying that I see similarities with the vast majority of people that have a diagnosis (or not but are clearly on the spectrum) and have only ever met two people who have the same "wavelength" as me in this.

I've seen this word "ricing" three times the past couple of days. It is yet another newfangled "cool" word? It sounds incredibly dumb, just like the vast majority of these kind of words are.

4000 bookmarks is nothing, neither is 12gb. I seriously don't understand how anyone could think even jokingly saying that's "the whole internet".

Now do American mass shooting rate and Linux market share.

But those are not at all the same meal? They're different enough where, even though I has absolutely no inkling of it being AI before, it now makes me a bit suspicious. I'm not trying to call you out, it just seems weird. Did you make both of these at different times, none of them?

*What do you call this

Sometimes things work out so perfectly, and this is one of those times.

Why'd you bring guacamole into this? If you think that's guac you must have only eaten some weird fake shit. And it even says it's curry right there on the image.

I use an old Sony TV from around 2008 as my monitor, I can turn on the TV and via my laptop screen shut the laptop down then manually boot again and it'll be fully booted before the TV is ready and showing the desktop. Got it from my neighbours when they tried to throw it out, it's not amazing but I'm very happy to have it as I wouldn't have anything other than the even more shitty 720p laptop screen otherwise.

Not in Swedish.

Kort = Short Lång = Long

Dude(ette), I have nothing to do with this self hosting thing and even I knew years ago plex was shit. It's been extremely obvious just from browsing reddit (before leaving) and lemmy. I don't know anything about any of this other than plex having an extremely bad reputation. How did you manage to become part of this and still chose to use it?

Bly in Swedish. But we add some weirdness to the Bly part so a "lead pencil" is blyertspenna ("penna" meaning pencil). I can't think of another word where that specific addiction is used, and I have no idea what it means.

Have you watched it? It's about people getting force fed another person's feces, which isn't the same at all. It's the opposite of what this thread is about. I think you might have some feces in your brain, only reason that could explain your idiocy.

Being asked "Have you gotten the tour yet" upon entering a house for the first time is the adult equivelent of the kids asking: "Do you want to see my room?"

'Read' and its past tense are spelled the same. How should they be spelled?
