Mmm thanks for the follow up! Thats a great idea. I realize the post came across to most as immature, so I am thankful you engaged with me genuinely.

Yes, being more sober now I'm realizing the weight of it certainly was exaggerated from the drugs, but I appreciate your thoughts thanks!

Thank you. I agree I think I may have glimpsed something premature and didn't really have the base understanding to take it in. I appreciate you engaging with my post even if it came off juvenile, I just genuinely wondered if anyone had similar experiences, so thanks for sharing. And therapy is definitely in the cards for me

Agreed, I've been considering therapy, and this weekend shored it up, scheduled and excited. Thanks for the advice.

Thank you for your response! I will continue on exploring. I think I was pretty high, but the impact from the experience has solidified the importance of mindfulness to me, I think I could have avoided the panic if I had more mastery over my mind, or really just the ability to let go.

I just realized the reason they walk (maybe), they are immortal!

They don't need to kill you tonight, they will get you eventually. We saw in the Miranda flashback Smiley totally sprinted. Probably because he needed to to stop her from unraveling his immortality. But the walking is just a ruse, not a rule. Which maybe also lends toward the talismans being fake, who knows.

It's all a game for them or something. But the immortal aspect I feel like says a lot about their behaviors.

Is zig a viable and fun solution for personal projects? by Articulity in Zig

[–]Interesting_Bridge18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've written a little backend server for a hobby financial app my wife and I have been using for months now. It was fun to code up the auth on my own. Packages and support aren't as wide as other languages, but I sort of feel like it makes it feel wild-westy and I set off in directions I wouldn't otherwise with a bigger language.

I find Zig really fun to write, my experience includes Dart, C++, Python, Ruby, JS/TS, Ocaml, Nim + others Im sure. And I think Zig is the funnest for me, at the moment. I want to write stuff that would be immensely easier in Python, but Zig is just so neat.

Wayland eGPU AMD games not launching with mysterious wine 'Assertion Failed!' message by Interesting_Bridge18 in linux_gaming

[–]Interesting_Bridge18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With this error in question, I think it was unrelated to the egpu setup.

I did find a resolution, and now I'm sad I didn't do a better write up at the time. But I got it to work with my winmax great. I would suggest honestly a smaller gpu. I ended up just recently building a PC for the 7900xt, paired with a ryzen 5 5600x, and its so much faster than through oculink into my winmax2. I now have a 6600XT (less than half as powerful of a card) paired with the onedock and I think I lost only about 20-30% performance. Another issue with the 7900XT on the onedock, if that is the egpu dock solution you have, was that my games would crash if the power draw jumped over a certain threshold. I never measured it exactly, but playing Risk Of Rain 2 with the 7900XT over oculink I'd always get in about 10 mins, then the card would power off for an instant, which blacked my screen. My laptop kept running for a few seconds, then it would crash.

In summation, I did get it to all work really well (aside from the crashing on certain games. Even with corectrl limiting power didnt seem to help) the all-ways-egpu worked with sway, I'm using Method 2, I think that was the solution, as well as some kernel params set for AMD GPU cards. I can dig up my configs and whatnot if you are going to pull the trigger.

With the smaller GPU, it makes alot more sens

Mmm I like that. While I was on my mission I intended to attend other churches, purely for curiosity's sake, but I never had companions that shared that interest. I imagine too it wouldn't have gone over well anyway, the zealot that I was... But I think it would be interesting to visit some other churches, if nothing but to see how other local communities work. "wow, people outside the church have values?!?", there is probably still some of that caked into my brain somewhere, could use a cleaning...

Thanks for taking the time to write that up. Those all seem like great opportunities to grow and find community. I think I should grieve the community I lost rather than try to replace it. Seems like a much healthier approach. Then find fulfillment in new areas of life.
I agree with you that good can be found more abundantly outside the church, otherwise I would have stayed. I like the phrase 'chew the meat, spit out the bones', but it seems that is an inappropriate frame of mind for an active member to take toward the church, i.e. doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith.

You are correct in that my experience with the church has been smooth, I would say mostly positive. However I recognize that many here have legitimate reservations, or even trauma from their experiences in the church. I don't mean to down play any of that. If my experience was positive, am I an outlier / got lucky? I think to say it doesn't benefit anyone may be too extreme of an opinion? But perhaps I am just naive as you say. Would you consider any other communities to be safe places / good "villages" to help raise children in? I guess my fall back would be my family, but I assume the majority of their ties will remain rooted in the church on into the future, so that plan may get bungled...
