@nixCraft that's essentially what I do lol, since I play games on my desktop or Steam Deck and dev job things on company laptop.

Yeah I'd prefer linux, but good luck with that. At least it has WSL now.

@Hyolobrika @mitchconner @steeznson and of course as you mentioned it allows us to think about concepts we can't put into words at that moment.

@Hyolobrika @mitchconner @steeznson from what I can tell from both my own experience and external sources, our internal monologue isn't actually speech as we know it. It's a chain of thoughts loosely associated with language concepts and if we think on them with the language part of our brain they retroactively get translated into words, but the brain doesn't waste processing power on thinking with exact words all the time. Hence it's easier to have an internal monologue than to speak out loud.

We can also explicitly have an internal monologue coerced into words, but it's more like manual breathing.

I noticed that the most when I learned English enough for my brain to switch to thinking in it for the first time, when I was abroad and had to use it pretty much exclusively for a whole day. Since a language is also a way of thinking, I sometimes catch myself at chaining a Polish-like monologue with English-like monologue without realising it until I try to think back on it more explicitly and realise it doesn't fluently translate into either.

@icedquinn btw, why would you want that? Genuinely interested.

@icedquinn sounds like a nightmare, I'd never be able to sleep knowing I probably left my joystick for the night two degrees rear-left.

@icedquinn pre-Library Of Alexandria burning post.

@m0xee @Hyolobrika not the YT videos I watch. And yeah, rephrasing the same thought in a different way and context can be helpful or at least bearable, but Rossman just 100% repeats the exact same strings of words he said a few minutes ago.

I guess he's probably used to explaining the same things to different (and the same but slow) people in the same way over and over so it's like an ingrained thought path.

@Hyolobrika I stopped watching him because of just how much he redundantly talks about the same things in the same way, as if his brain is just locked into repeating these thought loops whenever anything related to them is triggered. On the last video I watched I estimated there was about 4 minutes of unique content in like 20 minutes of video.

If I wanted to watch One Piece I'd do that.

@evacide woah, a tracking device can be used for tracking? Who woulda thunk?

@mkljczk bez szans, pamiętaj że bańki twoich followersów się nieźle nakładają na Twoją i na siebie nawzajem, szansa na to że w parunastu repostach to nie tylko opuściło Twoją bańkę ale i rozprzestrzeniło się w innych jest praktycznie żadna.

@mkljczk musiałoby się stać turboviralem przebijającym się między bańkami żeby przestało coś mówić o twoich obserwujących.
