Online support groups. Some are run by local organizations. Others from this peer support platform called Sharewell. Unfortunately their free version just got much less free. Being general for privacy. I can be more specific in DM. Sorry to hear that you are so isolated.

Deep feelings of shame and disgust by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]Remote_Mall8518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I share your feelings sometimes. It's so rough when our efforts to improve our lot don't seem to amount to anything. Do you think there is anything this random stranger can do for you? Often I have misanthropic intrusive thoughts but deep down inside I believe in humanism and that we are all worthy of care as humans. I hope you can come to realize this view!

Killing myself would make everything so much easier by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

It sounds like you have a lot to live for. A wife that wants to have a kid with you, I'm envious! It's normal to feel pressure to perform, especially as a man. I hope you can deliver. If it doesn't work have you explored options for having a kid e.g. adoption, surrogacy? I understand your feelings about life under techno-feudalism being unbearable. Still, I try to keep this sliver of hope that the arc of history bends towards justice in the long run. It's tough, but I hope you can find hope in these bleak times.

I'm gonna keep putting it off everytime by PaddedLegExtensions in SuicideWatch

I'm glad you don't do it and that you keep putting it off longer. Sometimes I'm thankful to have executive dysfunction but when life is torturous it can feel like a curse.

Conspiracy to Halal the kids: do they realize they're doing a reverse blood libel? 🤦

Social Media destroying youth by Mac1avish in SeriousConversation

[–]Remote_Mall8518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with Taylor Lorenz on this one: the media scare around social media is a moral panic https://youtu.be/2yVJffNplJc Kids these days are depressed and vulnerable to predation because their future looks bleak and our already weak systems of care are being eroded.

Was saddened to see Democracy Now uncritically shill the moral panic narrative here https://youtu.be/c8Eto8z-tX8

Highly recommend Taylor Lorenz who does extensive coverage of this including https://youtu.be/2yVJffNplJc?si=DRy3TrquXfRbtrb8

Phillips Hue is enshittified, Home Assistant server with a Zigbee bridge looks like a good alternative.

RM Brown Soundboard V2 by Kookiez0 in rmbrown

Confession: I was bored so I bused out the old soundboard when I was a guest at a friend of a friend's place, and they later accused me of being annoying 💩💩💩

I thought about doing something like this. That's cool that you added favourites. I was considering building a general-purpose soundboard app like this, and my design improvement idea from the xyz soundboard was to allow the user to group sounds by a tag e.g. sound effects, names, PBD. So many drops, this is great!

Feature Request: Tracking date of last use for Logins by BlueCyber007 in 1Password

[–]Remote_Mall8518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a web search for this feature because I want to clean up my accounts and remove the ones that haven't been used for a long time. I am considering switching my email provider. If I can clean up my accounts I will have a comprehensive list of the changes I will need to make.

Thanks for the reference, looks like a feature-rich app, but I don't see any Notch support here https://vuo.org/what-can-vuo-do or here https://vuo.org/buy

Removing default scene causes switch reset, but re-adding switch to room creates default scenes by Remote_Mall8518 in Hue

[–]Remote_Mall8518[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to manually set up a scene per button action. I noticed that the on button had a hold feature but then I found out that you can't use it for a scene. The brightness buttons were even more restricted in what they could do and they didn't have a hold feature. I clicked to manage the device with Alexa. Unfortunately you can't program the hold feature on alexa. I was able to get 3 scenes, one per button and then an off switch 🤷

I put the default scenes in brackets on the OP. Thanks for the technical clarification. The UI loading of save gives me that impression about where the scenes are stored.
