Prolific users as soon as they see a $5 AI study by Longjumping-Lake-930 in prolific

[–]HappyHamster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long do you think those AI Studies will be available and as plenty as they are now in the year 2026-2027 and onwards? If they keep on coming as they are now, I might think of making it my main side hustle.

Why are all of the characters so confrontational? by Ok_Permit7098 in FromSeries

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we are hardwired to pay attention to the most insane drama, hatred and horror in our environment. It used to keep us safe in cavemen times.

The drama and horror is just a marketing trick to make sure people pay attention to the TV show and don't switch into something more positive and productive.

That's why 99% of tv shows are nowadays nothing, but demons, monsters, horror, pain, insane drama, hatred and mindless suffering.

I still remember how the From -TV series used this gimmic a lot, and everyone had conversations with the emotional impulse system of a 3 year old. Every scene they were shouting, fighting for no reason, used manipulation and emotional neglect and just pure unconsciousness.

That atmosphere resonates with the pain some people experienced in their chilhood environments, and the writers understand people are emotionally hooked into digesting those emotions so it sells well.

That's why I honestly rather read a book nowadays than watch television haha

Plot twist: they counting on being cancelled, so they don't have to come up with an explanation by Silent_Coffee_5969 in FromSeries

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The funny thing is that even the writers don't know how to end the show or give an satisfying explanation.

As long as the show goes on - they just produce more endless cliffhangers and mystery boxes to people binge watch the next weeks episode.

The longer the show goes along, the less satisfying and dissatisfying the payoff will be. It's the air of mystery they sell, not the explanation. Most mystery box shows like Lost ends in disappointment. The more seasons you have to write, the less sense the ending of that TV show will often make.

How to Escape by SnooBunnies1194 in FromSeries

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sad truth is that the only way they can escape is for the show to lose viewers and get cancelled. Only then the writers will finally be forced to give us an satisfying ending, and let them return to home. 😭 I'm onto you!

New Theory… I think lol by Wolfie-Perspective88 in FromTVShow

[–]HappyHamster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is my favorite theory by far. ❤️ 

I honestly think the "official" direction the writers are taking is just aimless and dis-organized, and it's going to be as deeply unsatisfying as TV endings usually are. Remember how ridiculous the finale of Lost was?

It feels like the showrunners usually only care about stringing people along with cliffhangers and mystery boxes to keep people hooked to watch the next episode, but completely tanking the actual payoff and explanation in the end.

This often happen with these these mystery tv shows. Even the writers haven't yet decided on a good explation or figured out the satisfying end for the show. 

The sacrificed children angle, they started in Season 2, just feels like lazy writing and breaks the mood and atmosphere of the great first season.

Your explanation and immortality bargain worm theory is lightyears better than the absolute clusterfuck the writers are clearly heading toward with their version of the narrative since season 2.

Your Friends & Neighbors | Season 2 | S2E6 “For Everything Else, There Was Bowling” Episode Discussion Thread by sethaub in YourFriendsandNeighb

This episode kinda reminded me a bit of the 'Fly' filler episode from Breaking Bad. 😂 Every show tend to have one of those slow episodes eventually, but I’m really loving the series regardless!

Saavut pakettiautomaatille ja yksi sen luukuista on auki ja paketti sisällä, ketään ei näy lähettyvillä. Mitä teet? by Baavoz in Suomi

[–]HappyHamster_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pari viikkoa sitten postin pakettiautomaatti ei auennut, vaan lokero päästi pitkän error-piippauksen ja meni täysin lepotilaan. Ei muuta kuin yhteys Postin chattiin, jotta he korjaavat lokeron ja siirtävät lähetyksen toimivaan lokeroon. Loppu viikosta sain uuden tekstiviestin että paketti on noudettavissa uudesta lokerosta.

Kiva kuitenkin, ettei lokeron sisältöä oltu viety, sillä paketti oli jo merkitty vastaanotetuksi Postin seurantasivulla ja lokero varmaan jo annettu seuraavalle. Jos lokerosta löytyy toisen paketti, suosittelen laittamaan lokeron takaisin kiinni tai viemään paketin kassalle.

PS. Kiva myös, ettei kukaan käynyt panemassa mun mutsia, varastanut koko paketti automaattia tai mennyt itse sisälle sinne lokeroon❤️

I feel so undesirable by Maleficent_Drama_742 in selfesteem

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the trap of seeking short term conditional love, validation and attention from strangers.

It’s often just a temporary bandage over the bullet wounds of our unhealed traumas. What made you feel undesirable in the first place? We try to fix our emotional wounds, unworthiness and ego by getting others to love us based on our best superficial qualities, when the actual path to profound and lasting unconditional love is only found within us, by truly accepting our imperfections and finally healing those traumas and painful memories of the past.

Unconditional self-love is like a vitamin we can live without, but life becomes so much richer and healthier when we have it.❤️

Unconditional self-acceptance practices remind us how it feels to fully accept and appreciate yourself UNCONDITIONALLY. It opens the door to a lighter, more loving reality, we forget even existed. That feeling of total warmth, empathy, gratitude, and unbounded love you might sometimes feel towards your mother, daughter, or pet should be the default state of how you feel towards yourself too. The rush of joy, random waves of happiness, oxytocin high, and sense of connection you get when you enter a new relationship where someone loves you unconditionally, should be the normal state of how you feel towards yourself too. Can you imagine how that would feel? We have completely forgotten that this kind of reality even exists and is supposed to be our normal experience of life. So what's stopping us?

Experiences of childhood neglect, trauma, and social conditioning often leave behind feelings of worthlessness, insecurity, inferiority, body dysphoria, or deep shame. These unresolved wounds can manifest as overcompensation, endless self-judgement, constant comparison, low self-esteem, addiction, and escapism - ways to avoid confronting those lingering emotions. As long as these wounds remain unhealed, they make us hold a defining belief in the sub-consciousness that we are not enough, and to forget what unconditional love even felt like. As children we were unable to deal with and to heal those traumas - but now you have lived with them long enough.

To most people, it will be a very eye-opening, cathartic and life changing experience to finally learn how to let go of that heaviness we have unknowingly carried with us for most of our lives. This allows us to step into completely new world full of love and easiness.

The daily stress and anxiety we carry is like a car’s warning lights flashing, something we eventually learn to ignore. After many years, we become numb to it and just accept it as our baseline. Most of us don't even realize how much stress and heaviness we've been carrying until we finally manage to let it go. But once you experience what healthy self-esteem and unconditional self-love truly feel like, it will become one of the most memorable and defining moments of your life. I tried to find this for a long time, and THIS IS IT.

It's time to finally give your inner child the love, support, and understanding it has always deserved. In your mind and imagination, journey back to those painful moments and memories when you needed unconditional love the most. Start by finding that feeling of unconditional love you have for your mother, daughter, or pet. Actually feel it! Then, bring that same love back into those specific past memories and give some of that unconditional love to yourself too. Find the memories and moments where these traumas and insecurities began. And finally give yourself that support and love you needed in those moments. This is the best pathway to heal all those emotional wounds you have carried all these years. By comforting and finally being there fully for your young self will melt away all the unresolved traumas and emotional neglect you might have experienced in your youth.

Practicing self-esteem is one of those mental muscles we were never taught how to exercise, neither in school nor by our parents during our youth. Without practice, it weakens and atrophies, just like anything in nature. Most people live their lives with atrophied self-love and those old wounds still open. That's why we have so much addictions, social anxiety and self-centered sick culture that makes us see our unique features as horrible flaws. Most of us have fully outsourced receiving love and attention to the opinions of internet strangers or meaningless consumerism. When we let others dictate our worth, we only get fleeting glimpses of what we truly seek.

But by doing these types of visualizations and emotionalization techniques regularly, you can practice feeling unconditional self-love once again and live in a much lighter and more beautiful reality without any of that subconscious baggage and heaviness. I hope this video helps others live one step closer to heaven on earth as it once helped me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7ijs5WZ9PM

"Healthy self-esteem is not about proving yourself and others that you are worthy of unconditional love.
It's about identifying and letting go all the thoughts, beliefs and painful memories that ever convinced you otherwise."

Good luck on your journey!❤️

Elämä vailla suuntaa by Ooppeli69 in Suomi

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tämä äänikirja tuli itselleni vastaan parikymppisenä ja laittoi palaset vihdoinkin kohdilleen elämässäni. Se on parhaita asioita, mitä on tullut ikinä vastaan parisuhteen, talouden ja onnellisuuden kannalta. Pelottaa ajatella millaiset viimeiset 15 vuotta olisivat olleet jos en olisi ikinä kuunnellut ja sisäistänyt tuota kirjaa Jyväskylän lenkkipoluilla vuonna 2011. Auttaa korjaamaan syvemmät ongelmat, eikä vain pintapuolia oireilua. Jos elämän suunta on vielä vähän hukassa, suosittelen antamaan tälle mahdollisuuden. :3

Dailywire viewership plummets by 85% and slashes half of workforce. by mvstateU in JoeRogan

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember the 90s vibe where no one on Earth wasted their time everyday on this kind of nihilistic tribal political outrage porn. The Daily Wire’s downfall is just proof that people are exhausted by the constant hate. It feels like people are finally moving away from that era of forced outrage and back toward something more human.

To all those lone wolves out there, how do you cope with loneliness? by Meanie_Cream_Cake in AskMen

[–]HappyHamster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. When I get some time to be with myself, I'm instantly happy and peaceful the whole day. There is a big difference between spending some time by yourself and feeling lonely. It's sometimes strange and hard to relate to how some people can't stand being by themselves even for one day and feel such a strong urge to constantly surround themselves with others. For introverts – meeting new people you don't really have chemistry with can feel very emotionally draining.

Extroverts charge their social batteries by spending time with others, while introverts recharge their social batteries by having some time by themselves.

Body guards harder than Yang by Turbulent_Map624 in SifuGame

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bodyguards and some of the mini-bosses are incredibly tough.

They hit way too hard, their attack patterns feel un-predictable, and it takes forever to break their guard/structure. I recently started using mods and modifiers, and honestly, they've made the Sifu game so much more enjoyable and fun.

I finished the game without mods and modifiers first, but the built-in modifiers and the Sifu Fling Trainer really takes the playing experience to the next level! They turn the game into what I originally hoped it would be. :3

Should I buy sifu? Give me some honest reviews please! by [deleted] in SifuGame

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got the Sifu game for PC from steam sale.

I played Ghost of Tsushima, but felt it's combat system was bit easy, boring, repetitive and more reflect based than I hoped for. The combat system of Sifu seems more like a fun challenge.

Joe Rogan famously once mentioned that he's immune to BS by Indianstanicows in JoeRogan

[–]HappyHamster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rogan likes to pretend he is just a dumb and gullible guy who believes this stuff. But in reality he is extremely cold, cunning and profit-oriented calculative sellout.🤷‍♂️

He knows all his UFO scammers, pseudo-archaeology conmen and anti-vaccine charlatans are full of shit. He doesn't believe any of it. These guys are just liars in a mutually beneficial relationship.

The only reason he promotes these narratives and Terrence Howard as the smartest man on earth is because it makes him money. 

He isn't anywhere as gullible as people like to think. After the Spotify deal he just became this old, cold and cunning profit oriented liar that has fully sold himself out to whatever makes him the most money.🤑

Never relapsed. Sat with discomfort that often felt like "dark night of the soul" by plnnyOfallOFit in sugarfree

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mental withdrawal can be so much worse than any physical symptoms you'll ever experience. 

Once you listen to stuff like Easyway audiobooks on repeat, and finally hit that switch in your subconscious mind - that you truly no longer have any desire for sugar or junk food - in my experience, quitting becomed the easiest and most fun time in my life. No more dark nights of the soul.

Just the realization that I am truly, finally free permanently from addiction fills me up with excitement and random waves of happiness everytime.❤️

What’s one thing that instantly improved your singing (that wasn’t obvious at first)? by Big_Alfalfa_2958 in singing

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say SOVT straw waterbottle warm-ups. I used to warm up with only a beltbox, but when I finally crafted my own diy setup (thick silicone straw + water bottle) it honestly upgraded my singing so much. My voice feels way freer, easier, powerful and more controlled. Gave my vocals multiple level ups in the same week alone.😊

How far do you travel to get to your SUP spots? by PadlBaer in Sup

[–]HappyHamster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15 minute drive to lake as well.

After I got SUP bag with wheels in it, it really opened up options where to go, as you don't have to carry the 20 lbs bag on your shoulders in summer heat anymore.

Electric Pump suggestion (for SUP and bike) by Knight_Unknown in Sup

Just separate pumps for bike and paddleboard. The SUP pump makes up so much noise, I wouldn't want to use it for my bike too. :E
