It should be a standard everywhere people go tbh. Basic human right

People who had a quarter-life crisis in their 20's, did you do right to stress? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] CoachDom@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Coming from a person having a quarter-life crisis being just a baw hair from their 30s.

  1. You are still extremely young but don't fixate on this. Telling yourself "I'm still young and have plenty of time to do X or fix the Y" means eventually you will be too old for those things. Unless you will fall ill or there will be some age restricted obstacles, it's not true. You can learn new skills in your 20s as well as your 40s if you are determined enough. Shifting your career? No bother, I know heaps of people that did just that in their uni days as well as ones that are long into their existing career.

  2. Don't worry about this. If you fell behind the pack with your studies, means it wasn't for you. Whether it was the nature of your course, or maybe a uni in general. Going to university is not for everybody, just like doing manual labour is not for everybody. Use this opportunity to ask yourself a question, WHY did you drop out. Is it because you were too lazy? If you had true passion for it, you would find motivation to do it.

  3. No shame in that. I know people that are in their 30s and live with their parents to save money for their first home. Use this opportunity to enjoy your life without certain worries. The time to pay taxes, rent and for your food will come and you will look back fondly on this period of your life :) It would still be a good idea to chip in for utilities and food to your parents if you have means to do so. Will probably make you feel better about living there.

  4. Good. Do mistakes. You learn more from your mistakes than from the things you did right. But the important thing is to analyze WHY you made those mistakes.

  5. Maybe check if there is a career advisor near you/on your campus? They offer free advise based on what interests you. Ask yourself what are things in your life that you are passionate about or what kind of stuff do you enjoy doing. Remember, if you are passionate about something, there is a way to make it into your career. There is a reason why some people that are truly passionate about video games, they go into streaming career, and they are very successful. Me for example, I love playing video games, but I don't see myself doing for a full on career, because I want to keep it as my private hobby, and I lack certain traits to become a successful streamer (English is not my first language, I'm self conscious and I lack certain charisma).

  6. Do it. Only by trying you will learn anything about yourself. Hypothesising will only get you this far.

That's my advice :)

It's the best feature of the Fediverse - you have so many options! If one instance doesn't work for you, there WILL be one that agrees with you better.

I'm not LGBT or Q but this is my instance because I whole heartedly support people and I appreciate that mods here do their best to separate from pure human garbage while retaining connection with like and different minded groups.

Disco Elysium - Switch or Xbox/PS5 (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

As in the title - its on sale on all consoles at the moment for a very good price and I was wondering what console should I get it on. I like the idea of playing it on the go and I thought as it looks like it should run no difference what console im playing it. But I heard some mixed reviews regarding the performance on Switch.

Gmail serving straight up malware rule in c/196@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Oh man been off the personal plan on gmail for a while (only have gmail for work because my office is on gsuite) and my pal showed this to me recently and I fucking rolled 🤣 I had tutanota an proton for a while but no SMTP support forced me into zoho which is still a millions time better than gmail

The fact that it goes to a malware website makes it 100 times better

Simple Fitness Tracker (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Are there any fitness trackers that don't have a screen and are supported by some OS apps?

I remember researching this some time ago, and there was some abandoned by it's company fitness tracker that people tried to reverse engineer to work with an OS app.

I would like it to have no screen as I already have a mechanical watch, and I dont like to have two things doing the same thing.

Woocommerce API help (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/4160765

I am opening a woocommerce store pretty soon and I was looking through a various drop shipping/fulfilment on demand services. One of them offers their services through an API and there is some documentation on it, and how to run a test if it works correctly on my end but no information on how to "install" it on my store.

I can send you the link to the service and their documentation page - just don't want to do it here not to doxx myself 😄

What is API and how do I use it?

Many thanks

Hi y'all,

I have an elderly lady living next door and she doesn't really seem to have anyone checking on her (I have never seen anyone coming to hers) apart from me and my partner every once in a while (usually she will pop by asking if we need anything and vice versa).

I'm a little bit paranoid about what would happen if she fell/collapsed in her apartment and couldn't call for help. It doesn't help that there is a dog living with her (I'm not gonna paint the picture, but I'm sure you heard the stories...).

I want to suggest to her to have some sort of SOS button that she could carry around the flat and, if something happens, she could press it to call for help.

I found this on aliexpress but it has it's own proprietary android app that I don't think would work on my GrapheneOS phone. Local, non-aliexpress options are pretty expensive and/or are subscription based.

Do you know of any alternative that wouldn't break a bank and would have more open source friendly system in place?

EDIT: I was thinking about a cheap wireless door bell (she would have the button - door bell would be in our flat). The problem is when we are away from home.

Perhaps a door bell with simple phone push notifications (my partner has a regular android phone so she could receive those)? Any product suggestions?

Help me with my "little" rose (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

My little girl was dying after her first season after being adopted from a local super market. Now she came back to life - stronger than ever!

The only issue is, she is no longer "little" and she's not letting out any flowers. I'm pretty sure you are supposed to trim and cut roses, but I'm not sure how.

Could anyone help us out?

You can and you should contribute - Open Street Map (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Today I found out that it's actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.

It's really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

Nicer Looking Map (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Is it possible to get a nice looking overlay? Like this one: https://www.ecosia.org/map?q=lunga&coordinates=56.488247,-6.422436&placeName=Isle%20of%20Lunga

Ecosia Maps are using OpenStreetMap but the definition is so much more pleasant to look at. OpenStreetMap or Organic Maps are a lot more...technical.

Contributing to OpenBoard (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Hi there,

I wanted to improve my native language dictionary (there is a lot of words missing) in OpenBoard app and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with it?

This is how it's described on their Github page, but I never used github so I'm not even sure where to start.

Dictionary creation

To create or update a dictionary for your language, you can use this tool. You will need a wordlist, as described here. The output .dict file must be put in res/raw, and its wordlist in dictionaries.

For your dictionary to be merged into OpenBoard, you must provide the wordlist you used, as well as its license if any.

Also, is this project still supported? It seems to be the best FOSS keyboard for me, but it seems the last update was a year ago.

Thanks
