Any communities you can recommend? In the past I had many unfortunate encounters with toxic users that had no patience for newbies. If they're anything like you, I'd be very happy!

I started out with memrise, as it was very accessible and I wanted to start learning Japanese. It was fun but it's also very limiting. A mixture of Smouldering Durtles, Human Japanese and Ankidroid really accelerated things. And then the ginormous post-covid upswing in my industry came, with less colleagues than before and my brain got fried. Still trying to recover from that with therapy and whatnot. Yeah, I lost a lot of progress that way.

Any who, that was specific to learning Japanese. Wishing you success with your endeavors! Learning other languages is a huge Eye-opener for understanding other cultures better.

Mate, thanks for the information! I saved the comment and will setup a dual boot on my laptop during my next vacation. I really want to make the switch finally. I'm fed up with these mega corporations shoving their bullshit on us.

Why not Anki? Ankidroid works well and there are many great community decks for all kinds of languages (and other topics too BTW).

Maybe my info on sound drivers is outdated... I play guitar and rely on low latency for my interface. I use neuralDSP plugins (not just for recording, also for jamming). Is it possible to get this running somehow? Any good DAWs you know of?

Your not making it sound any better. It almost seems like you're held hostage. This kind of behavior would piss me off like crazy, especially since I need the night time to myself. Its the only time of the day when I can finally relax and just do me-things.

Talk to your partner. If that doesn't help, maybe suggest couple's therapy. If they don't comply, then it is a very one-sided thing and that's not going to end well. I don't know the whole story, so this may come off as harsh, but it is the information you're giving us, which at the very least indicates that you're not happy with the situation.

It's not your fault that you have ADHD. Having ADHD doesn't make you a bad person. All of my favorite people in my life have ADHD, except for my wife. But she is very understanding and helps me out a great deal. I try my best to repay that. Of course there are occasions where she's fed up with my forgetfulness and whatnot, but that's normal.

All the best to you, I hope you'll work things out together!

I'm sorry to say this, but your partner doesn't seem very supportive. This will likely have to be a conversation between you two before it gets worse. This thing is probably racing around in your head because your relationship is important. So it's all the more important to talk to your partner about these things.

Holy crap, that's me! Just with heavy machinery.

I often wish my old job at Lidl back. I very often also regret buying a house that makes me reliant on a well-paying job.

Have you tried it since 1.0? It's pretty ok.

What keeps me from making the switch is music-making. None of my plugins run on Linux and sound drivers supposedly are a huge mess.

I know how this works. It's still a ridiculous echo chamber and I stumbled into a meme community on that instance and didn't know it and started to discuss Communism. They were very adamant on their stance, despite showing them contradicting evidence. Only then I noticed I was on Lemmy.ml, lol. Shortly after, I was banned.

Tankies suffer from similar delusions as Nazis do. They seem to be smarter however.

Absolutely! Especially communities like lemmy.ml. I just got banned for criticizing certain aspects of Communism. No alternate opinions are allowed apparently...

Just like a plane is much faster then any bird that has ever lived.

And if you don't allow your kids a phone they'll be socially isolated.

That is a crock of shit and an excuse used by lazy parents.

The license agreement doesn't mean shit here though. Its perfectly legal. They're perfectly valid and official keys.

In Germany you just purchase an OEM volume license on eBay for 8€. That's why I don't give a shit about all this drama, lol. I'm still switching to Linux once I find the time to do so, because I don't want to support American companies any further.

What kind of a backward ass piece of shit country would allow these things to fly all over the place? This entire industry is ridiculous and doomed to fail from the start.

Dienstreisen und Samstags arbeiten. Durch meine Dienstreisen krieg ich ca. 15k€ mehr im Jahr. Auch Überstunden spielen da eine Rolle.

Can I subscribe to your social media accounts? I would like to follow your opinions.

Nah, for real though, I'm so glad my best friend is still fairly analog and we use the phone for what it is (we just call each other when we want to meet up).

Lemmy is the last of social media that I use and I regularly take breaks from it because the echo chamber is very apparent and not something I wish to be consumed by.

I believe the equivalent saying would be "don't let perfect be the enemy of good".

I couldn't give a single shit about these twitter alternatives, because the whole concept is stupid.

Weil diese Empörung über so eine Kleinigkeit ein gefundenes Fressen für rechte Propaganda ist. Da wird gleich ein "die da oben wollen uns alles verbieten" Ding draus gedreht. Man muss da geschickter vorgehen. Und so mega schlimm ist das nun auch wieder nicht.
