As i mentioned here, my mother's health is slowly deteriorating and she is eating less and less. She is 40 kg/88 pounds now.
She had to undergo a big surgery for something that should have killed her and she recovered fine, but her appetite is still non-existent. She is frail and weak. My father, who is 5 years older than her, is strong and a rock, but you can see it's taking a toll on him too. He needs to do things for her all the time now since she can't leave home because of her herniated discs. She can only walk and stand for like 15 minutes before feeling insurmountable pain.
There is nothing really anyone can do, just live day by day. I live in another city and visit every other weekend, but it pains me seeing her like that. Never saw anyone so thin like this.

I listened to this a lot and keep coming back to it.
It's a one person thing that people don't know much about it.
It sounds like indigenous musical cultures around the world mixed with Sigur Rós. It is really beautiful and calming to hear while not becoming boring in any way.
It's a work of art.
Edit:
Oh, on the metal front there is I AM THE INTIMIDATOR which I discovered here on Tildes.
Don't even know how to explain this one. It's a short and to the point album with enough variety and catchy songs. The theme is odd and it's what makes it fun even for a Brazilian like me who don't know nor cares about NASCAR.

I need to do many more keystrokes to achieve the same things in yazi. Nnn is way better at this.
Also I am very diligent with my filenames and organization so I don't see a need for file preview and icons. I find these nerd font icons quite ugly.
Great project anyway.

It's trivial to reset passwords so...
And I don't blame her. While it's easy for me to care for my keepass file, it still work I have to do (setup syncthing on phone and computer and make periodic backups to an external drive and cloud storage).

If I need to learn all of that and than still maintain my home directory full of dotfiles, I don't see much of a point.
But then I heard there is home manager to solve that, and then I heard about something called flakes and by that time I was too overwhelmed with information and dropped. I'll give it a try again sometime soon.

So I loved Slipknot and Korn, but didn't care much about the more "hip hop" side of nu metal like Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park.
But it aged really bad for me. Probably because when they emerged I was discovering more types of metal and just started listening to black, death, grind, etc. So it was a thing of the moment for me.
In the end (heh) I just can't stand anything related to nu metal and metalcore these days.

I'm an horror fan who thinks Child's Play is a 5/5 movie that is as perfect as Godfather.
I couldn't finish the first movie. It just does not have anything worthwhile for me. It is just a gory slasher. I like the genre, but it just didn't click with me.
