Sure, but... is "too much discussion" really a problem that Lemmy has? This is kind of a threatening time for some of us, especially if we don't have a lot of friends irl.

The youtube algorithm determined the following: people who watch the kind of videos in your history, are also interested in recording netflix shows. And it was right, because you are in fact interested in that (general) topic. This is another possible explanation.

It is a period of brain maturation, learning about intimacy and mutual support, intensification of pre-existing friendships, family-oriented socialization, and the attainment of those social skills that are needed for mating and reproduction.

Awesome, thanks!

Hey so what is this cognitive development that I may have missed out on? I tried googling but nothing comes up. Can you point me to some reading about this? Or some term to search for? Thanks.

Sorry fam I didn't mean it that way, I've just learned to be suspicious.

the last cognitive development stage, which happens around 26-27.

Wait, what? I don't think I got the memo on that one. This isn't some "manosphere" thing, is it?

The last time I bought a Mac was like 10 years ago, at an independent computer shop that specialized in them. The person at the register insisted on getting my personal info "because Apple needed it" but I didn't want to give it. The person at the register very slowly sauntered up to their manager, had a long discussion, and eventually they figured something out because I suddenly didn't need to give my info. It was kind of nervewracking because I was paying cash and I was like: what if I hand it over, and they change their mind? It's not like I could call the cops, I'm the wrong demographic.

Anyway, whenever I thought about getting an Apple system, I remembered that experience and went with something else.

You thought you had to restrain yourself, but you... supposed erroneously.

I didn't; I made the chart almost a year ago, click on the link above it to see the 11-month-old comment.

Lemmy had around 1000 active users for the first half of 2023.

It's OK dog. The thing is, you figured it out. You're better off than those that never figured it out. Now you just gotta move on from where you're at.

Choices - we make them, chances - we take them

Some are mistakes, some we celebrate them

We don't look back, cause so much we facin

I always stay proud of myself, I'm yelling, "Fuck regret!"
