I think you’re misunderstanding what I meant but that may be my fault.
Would “Two people of equal drunkness can do whatever under the same terms and conditions as two non-drunk people” be better?

Two people of equal drunkness can do whatever they want because there’s no power imbalance*.
But someone who’s a single drink in shouldn’t have sex with someone who’s absolutely hammered, and someone who’s absolutely hammered shouldn’t force themselves on someone who’s blackout drunk (because that’s literally rape)
Edit:
*Obviously, all other rules that would apply to non-drunk people also apply. I’m not saying they can like, murder each other or anything.
Don’t sweat it. Some people just like to hate on things. You’re allowed to ask question on an Internet forum dedicated to asking questions.
Which is wild to me because it seems really obvious to me that it’s intentionally cringy dialogue.
Anakin Skywalker is a cringy edgy teenager for a lot of that. That’s like, a major part of his character.
Yeah, really it would be surprising to me if this wasn’t the case.
If your pull request doesn’t get merged in, you still learned just as much as if it did, so the time you spent doing it wasn’t wasted. In fact, people may make comments on it explaining why it won’t be merged in, so you’ll learn more than if it was.
You don’t need to be an expert to start contributing—in fact, the best way to improve is to try to contribute, fail, and then learn how to improve next time you tackle and issue :)
Also, your English is very readable. From this comment alone I can assure you it’s more than good enough for writing issues and pull requests. You’re doing great, just keep at it!

If anything, that video makes me want to quit Linux because of how much cringe it made me feel.
I second this. Just going through vimtutor a couple times and then learning how to use the :help pages effectively is all you need to make vim usable.
I’d recommend using neovim over plain vim though, if not for any reason other than it has nicer defaults.
Honestly, one of the best things you could do is use Linux Mint instead of Ubuntu. It’s a lot more new user friendly.
OP, do not use Arch as a beginner unless you’re already a very techy person.
I know people may disagree with this, but y’all, we forget sometimes how confusing even following something like the Arch Wiki can be when you aren’t familiar enough with tech.
You don’t have to learn vi
if you don’t want to. Just switch your default text editor to one that you like (it doesn’t even have to be a GUI one)
Conceptually? I’m all for it. Why wouldn’t I be.
In practice, we live in a capitalist society and I don’t want an arm that makes me watch an advertisement before I open a bag of chips.

Same. I work in tech. But it’s definitely not the best starter hobby for someone who’s explicitly trying to find a hobby to help with depression.
Well…
Target once used small amounts of shopping data to accurately predict women were pregnant before they themselves knew.
A Nebraska PD got data from Facebook to prove a woman had an abortion recently and prosecuted her.
you don’t know what will become illegal
So, even small amounts of data can predict lots of things about your life. The government has a track record of using that data to prosecute you. And you cannot trust the Government will always align with your morals (assuming it even does right now).
And that doesn’t even consider other entities & organizations in the world.
What if an insurance company wants uses public data about you to deny you coverage? What if someone is searching for people in the area with ideal houses to rob and you’re on vacation? What if they use a deepfake of a loved one to scam you? Steal your identity and ruin your credit? What if they make and sell deepfake porn made of you or a loved one? What if they create meticulously engineered political psyop campaigns hand-tailored to exploit your psychology? What if this list of “what ifs” could go on nearly forever, and some “what ifs” aren’t even things we’re capable of knowing about?
Because that last one is absolutely true, all the rest of those are true for someone, and at least one of them is probably true for you already.
Ok, but what if you don’t care?..well someone else in your life does. And even if they have impeccable data privacy habits, if enough of their friends and family don’t, then they’re just a single missing puzzle piece, and everyone can still see their shape.
Not to mention, you contribute to a pool of data that’s used to perform these kinds of analyses on society at large, meaning you contribute in some part to each and every instance of malicious data use towards anyone, anywhere.
Is that a good enough reason to care?
I don’t recommend this if you’re looking for a good hobby to not be depressed haha. Something outside or at least away from screens is probably better.
Very solid answer. Just make sure to watch a couple YouTube videos tutorials on how to throw correctly so you can quickly make.progress toward being good enough such that you don’t just lose your discs every time you throw them. It’s a lot more fun when that annoyance is less frequent.
Lemmy is still fairly new to most people here and most of these new people came from reddit. A group of people who majorly are having a single, shared, novel experience (moving from reddit to Lemmy) are gonna talk about that thing until it stops being novel.
It’s already getting considerably less meta so I’d just enjoy it for what it is, contribute content to the communities you like, and just allow the meta conversations to naturally subside.
No. Also I hope the women you know are aware that you are not a safe person to be around.
