  • Is Cuba okay?

    Jump

  • Define "okay". By my definition, they haven't been doing ok since the cold war as they've been bullied non-stop since then. It may be on the news again now, but it never stopped.

  • Yes, in true YAML fashion, there are some edge cases where things act weird but are technically correct.

  • huh. didn't expect that

  • Care to explain why it's not a good idea to tell your computer "install this package" in a CLI format?

  • huh. didn't expect that

    Jump

  • Technically correct answer but not super helpful imo. yay <package name> starts a search from which you enter your selection(s) from matches. yay -S <package name> installs the package directly, errors if it's not found

  • sales =/= quality

  • What is popularity if not broad acceptance? "Quality" is something else and mostly subjective, but it's not directly related to popularity

  • How would i go about creating themes for a desktop environment like Cinnamon or KDE Plasma?

    Jump

  • Yep, start from there, I would also like to point out that in the newly released Plasma 6.6 you can save your current settings as a global theme, so you also have that starting point.

  • I am not disputing that you know your body or that it is healing for you, I'm just trying to say that something can be healing in a sense and hurtful in another, at the same time. I am also someone that naturally tends to fast sometimes, but there are pretty well defined limits that go well beyond individual variances. If you're planning to go for 7 days, please for the love of God at least drink water, or the nervous system reset you'll get won't be of the good kind. Your neurons and heart won't work without water, no matter how strong you are. It contains no nutrients and costs either nothing or next to nothing, and I can guarantee you that being dehydrated is not a factor in the benefits you get from fasting, if not for "feeling high" in the delirious sense.

    Again, the basic biological need that I’m ignoring is not eating. I know my body more than you or anyone else. I can easily eat 20,000+ in one week consistently. And I probably do. Not that I’m counting. I’m not expecting many if any people to support me on this or understand.

    Everyone who participates in a thread like this is here to understand and support you, so I will say again what both me and others have said, underlining that I am listening to what you're saying and that my only interest is your well-being: Your idea that not eating or drinking for 7 days is a biological need is not healthy and you should not pursue it. I say this because you're picking a fight against nature and setting yourself up to lose. I am not saying it is completely physically impossible, but you must realize how that is well beyond human operating ranges, beyond knowing your body - and if you don't, please, listen to us. Literally every lifeform needs to eat, none need to not eat.

    You know fasting is good for you, and doing a hard, good thing for 7 days is good for you, but the union of the two is not a good one. The goals you already achieved are significant and you should be proud of them - I know I am! But this is just pushing yourself unreasonably hard, and I don't think there's a good outcome for this scenario. In my view what you need to work on is breaking them in a way that doesn't make you feel like you undid your progress, rather than going longer and longer stretches of time.

    I hope you will take the advice of talking to someone qualified about all of this, I believe the understanding and support you need are more than what internet comments can provide. I see someone that is very brave in many ways and I really think you'll be able to reach your ultimate goals of mental and physical well-being, but don't try to do it alone.

  • Can I get some support rn please?

  • I don't think going 7 days without food or water is a healthy goal frankly, no matter how much self-determination that might demonstrate. I think you are setting biologically unreasonable goals for yourself, which will likely lead to either harming yourself or to breaking the fast in "a bad way" that will make you feel guilty and ashamed again, or both. Your body and your brain (or soul if you prefer, it's true either way) need nutrition to function properly. Don't try to bury your hunger until the point you break and consume a ton of calories while on your phone to try and avoid the guilt*. Maybe you could try fasting for a bit while it still makes you feel good about yourself and how you relate to others (because it's great that you're doing that!) but before you reach a point where your body semi-autonomously seeks the first available calories, eat one single fruit. Buy a peach or whatever for cents and take a minute to bite into it and taste it, appreciate the good molecules that it's giving you. Maybe from there you can move to a small salad or some boiled green leaf vegetables, something that won't make you gain weight and that you can feel good about eating. Food does not need to be something that makes your body worse or that costs a lot of money. It will take time and likely some external help, but I'm sure you can make it and that soon you''ll be ending meals with a smile while losing weight, and saving money too :)

    Please hear us: There is no emphasis on the can die, you will end up in a bad place in one way or another if you ignore your basic biological needs. You will need to break the fast eventually, you just have to plan how you're going to do it in a way that makes you feel good! You have noble goals in your self-love and your family, and I admire your resolve in your fasts so far, I really do. But as others have said, never eating again is not the way to go about it :)
