If you want to change this about yourself, then you can see a therapist to help you do it. You don't have to be mentally ill to see a therapist, they can just help you make changes in yourself that you want to make. For something like this you would want to see a CBT therapist
I used to be that way too, but it's a skill that you learn through practice. Like push yourself to get into things just a teeny tiny bit to start with for now. Then after awhile it'll be easy to get to that point of toe-dipping, so then you push yourself to go in a bit more next time, and do that every time you're at some activity, and then eventually you'll find it easy to jump right into the deep end of every activity. But it does take some effort to push yourself in the earlier stages
"However, the dev also boasts that “the possibilities are endless” and would welcome any companies or individuals who wish to get in contact and discuss commercializing this project or something related to it."
I assume you're quite young, which is great! I'd suggest learning to enthusiastically jump into whatever activity you wind up in. It's way more fun that way.
At a comic con? Throw on a mask and start talking in a funny voice!
At an opera? Listen closely to the sounds and try to enjoy the artisticness of the performance!
In a big grassy field with nothing to do? Take your shoes off and let the grass tickle your feet!
In my experience it's easy to judge things as lame and to tell yourself that you're too cool for that thing, but that winds up not being fun, and you wind up missing out on a lot of stuff that you actually would've enjoyed if you let yourself get into it. Learn to be open to trying new types of experiences and you'll wind up having more fun in life!
It depends on where and when in the US. In areas that are Democratic (the more liberal party) it doesn't really happen much anymore, but in areas that are Republican (the more conservative party) it still happens at the start of every single school day.
This exactly. At the broadest range you can say there are certain qualities that are more prevalent in one age group compared to another age group, but at the individual person level those trends are meaningless. Any individual person can be conservative or liberal, be caring or selfish, be x or y.
Please try not using initialisms that a general audience won't know. That's why i had to look up the previous one and quoted the info so other people wouldn't have to look it up also. USV doesn't even show up in a googling
"A close-in weapon system (CIWS) is a point-defense weapon system for detecting and destroying short-range incoming missiles and enemy aircraft which have penetrated the outer defenses, typically mounted on a naval ship. Nearly all classes of larger modern warships are equipped with some kind of CIWS device."
That makes no sense. Why would the military guy go along with that plan, and then after being caught as planned he then suddenly tells the world about the plan?
Oh snap that's so geeky cool!
