  • Agree.

    Setting your own expectations so that you’re never disappointed also helps.

    Anticipate meeting up, so that if it happens, you’re excited. At the same time, anticipate that they may not show up so don’t expect that they will.

    Love the other person but love yourself first. Yes, it’s cheesy and cliché but there’s a reason for that: it works incredibly well in your favour since there’s no way to lose.

    People fail to show up for a variety of reasons. They may have suffered an accident. Their phone might have died and they don’t know how to get to the meet up without it, and have no way of letting you know. They may be stressed and could have forgotten, even if they were really looking forward to it.

    And the kicker, they might be even more anxious than yourself and don’t know how to deal with that.





  • If you’re veggie/vegan, make sure you eat enough protein. For an adult male, that should be around 100g/day as a probably insufficient minimum.

    Also supplement B12, which is mostly found in animal products.

    Mostly and more importantly, don’t blindly follow dieting advice from random people on the Internet. Do your own research. Take a blood panel.







  • The main “instability” I’ve found with testing or sid is just that because new packages are added quickly, sometimes you’ll have dependency clashes.

    Pretty much every time the package manager will take care of keeping things sane and not upgrading a package that will cause any incompatibility.

    The main issue is if at some point you decide to install something that has conflicting dependencies with something you already have installed. Those are usually solvable with a little aptitude-fu as long as there are versions available to sort things out neatly.

    A better first step to newer packages is probably stable with backports though.
