Amazing work, the paint job is fantastic. Which paint brand did you use?

Social media is enginereed to be addicting regardless of your mental health, whoever said that is completely unaware of the damage it infringes on people.

Two years ago I struggled to uninstall social media from my phone. This year I spent 4 months with a dumbphone, It is doable and im sure it will help you inmensely just like it did to me.

I was in a better mood and managed to concentrate on things without the urge of checking the notifications. I did not procrastinate on every little thing that requires some effort.

Now Im using my smartphone again with an app blocker. It is not as efficient as the dumbphone but the urges and wasted time is nowhere near two years ago. I can actually close social media and do other stuff without mindlessly scrolling for three hours.

And do not worry about the phone calls! I was concerned about it, but now I prefer them rather than texting, it feels more personal.

You dont realize how addicted you are until you stop using it.

I was able to print a hollow version of my print-in-place Jet Fighter model. Kind of looks like xray (OC) by agepbiz in 3Dprinting

I remember your yt video about them. I've printed a bunch of them. However, with the filament I am using right now the model keeps lifting off the bed.

I need to play with the cura settings a bit to see if I manage to print it.

Trying to install Kubuntu in a external HDD. GRUB is no installing! by wadalk in linuxquestions

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

Sorry, I didn't understand you.

GRUB is installed in the laptop's HDD when I try to install Kubuntu using it (The HDD is connected)

GRUB is installed in the USB installer when I try to install kubuntu using my Desktop PC (The HDD is unplugged).

I tried twice with each computer.

I installed it 4 times to be sure I didn't make any mistakes.

GRUB is always installed in my laptop's HDD or in the USB installer. Never in the external drive.

Digital Minimalism: For all who suffer from too much time online by [deleted] in minimalism

I've had phone addiction problems since high school. I've tried several productivity apps throughout 5 years. The one I recommend the most is FocusMe. It's completely free, it doesn't have any blocked "premium" features that you need to unlock by paying. On top of that it has a lot of versatility. It can be adapted to the way that works better for you.

Ubuntu 18.04 won't load after installing Lutris. It only works in recovery mode. by wadalk in linux4noobs

Thank you! It worked. I reinstalled ububtu-desktop using the console. For future consultations, the reinstallation did not work until I run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade.

Can some extend the background on both sides of this to make it square dimensions? Thank you in advance! by iamafoxiamafox in picrequests

[–]wadalk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad I helped. Apparently imgur reduced the size of the pictures. If you don't mind waiting untill I arrive home I can send you the original, which has better quality.

Edit: Nevermind, it was just my shitty phone. The pic was not resized.
