@ admin: Sorry if it's not allowed to post these kinds of things, feel free to remove it.
I'm normally not someone who would post this kind of stuff to places like this or other sites, as it's probably kind of annoying, but l'm honestly starting to get super worried.
A close friend recently broke her leg & thanks to the fucked up US healthcare system she's got a $1800 bill due on the 11th of October. I set up a fundraiser to try and help, which raised $500 so far, but that's just not enough.
I'm really worried for her (mental) wellbeing & l am desperately trying to scrape together what l can to help. l think if the bill isn't paid, it wouldn't take long for her to end up homeless, or worse.
l don't like asking this, but would anyone be able to either donate or share the tweet? Any amount helps.
l would genuinely appreciate it a lot if you could, and l understand if you can't.

Edit: it's in the tweet, but l should mention she's trans and disabled; becoming homeless already is pretty bad, but given the other circumstances l'm honestly not sure if she'll survive that.
I have donated her $600 already which is as much as l can miss, l don't know what to do about the bit that's still missing.

It looks like it was much simple than I thought and someone solved it on Reddit already. I won't delete, just leave the link if someone is interested.
Sometimes I use "whereis" (aliased for "wh", but it doesn't make any difference...) for my own scripts.
I usually copy their paths manually (using tmux) and paste to the command line resulting in something like this:
nvim /home/my_username/my_scripts_folder/my_script
Could I make that into a single command?
Thanks in advance!
For those that aren't familiar with it, Kind Words is a recently released "game" where players can write a message about a difficulty they're facing or something that's troubling them. Other real people in the game can then respond, letting that person know that they're not alone. Players can also write un-addressed messages of positivity in the game, which are spread to other users via paper airplanes.
I figured we could have a thread on Tildes with our own version of the game via comments.
Here's how I figure it will work. We'll have three post types:
Request: share your situation in order to get kind words in response
Response: offer kind words to other people who have posted here
Airplane: write general thoughts of goodwill for all the readers of the thread
Please begin your post by naming its type in bold font. For those posing Requests, please let people know if you would rather receive public responses or PMs.
Example post:
Request: Sometimes I find myself wondering if there's any point to anything. It feels like I'm working so hard at meaningless stuff, just to get by. Anyone else feel this way?
That isn't my request, just an example of what someone might type.
Remember that the point of the thread is to let people know that they are heard and that they are not alone!
Let's all be kind!
after a month sabbatical, we're back. this is pretty straightforward, i think: vent your experiences or things you need to get off your chest/share whatever you've found helps you mentally/etc.
resources that might also be of some benefit to people:
and here is the june thread if you'd like to reference/update us on something you mentioned there.
Amazon appears to have a severe problem with "co-mingled" stock for some items.
eBay is pretty scary for some things, but at least you know it's eBay.
Where do you buy microSD cards for a reasonable price and to ensure genuine product?
a couple of people have commented on this thread being helpful for them since tildes is a pretty welcoming community and this thread seems like something that would be nice to make regular anyways, so let's do that. this is pretty straightforward, i think: vent your experiences or things you need to get off your chest/share whatever you've found helps you mentally/etc.
resources that might also be of some benefit to you, since i have a list i informally maintain (s/o to cfabbro also for supplementing this list):

What is it? Is there anything we can do to remedy it?
Change can be painful and slow. And frankly quite awkward and lonely too. What are you working on to change and how can I help? How can we as an excellent community support each other here?

I've noticed a lot of people in introductory threads mentioning their mental health issues and a sizeable number of people who took the survey indicated they consider themselves mentally ill. I myself have been dealing with depression for about 16 years.
Without a search function it's hard to tell if this is a repost, but I figured I'd give it a go and see if anyone out there is in need of some support. If you need someone to talk to, consider this thread a support group and I will be here to lean on. :)
I'd love to see some sort of recovery support here; my experience with online communities has been invaluable as I've figured out what works and what doesn't.
