Any skills you can market? Things you can craft? As many others have said—there is no quick way to earn money.
Gambling is an option, though you could lose it all. Not worth it in my opinion.
If you want money and want lots of it—find and solve problems. Look at the world, identify problems, and find marketable solutions.
Either way you'll have to grind.
For me, it has been incredibly difficult to find a properly privacy oriented Linux distro that also has ease of use.
First of all, most distros already offer adequate privacy. It'll always beat Windows or MacOS—that's for sure.
Second, ease of use and privacy don't go hand in hand. The more privacy you want the harder it gets to use. The reason I emphasised privacy is because it's more anonymity at that point.
What is it you want? If it's privacy you're after you can't go wrong with most distros and using FOSS. If it's anonimity be prepared to make a ton of sacrifices. Have fun putting your laptop in a Faraday bag, routing all your traffic through Tor, visiting eepsites, disconnecting your webcam and microphone, only wiring money with Monero, and so forth.
My point is, there is no best of both worlds.
He eventually found the executable by Googling for it online and is now part of a botnet.
Windows is shitty—don't get me wrong. But for all my coursework it's pretty annoying to do on Linux. Especially Office, and yes I am well aware it's a MS product and that Linux-support will likely never come. Though the limited online version of Office or LibreOffice don't quite cut it for me. Besides, running it with Wine or in a VM is too much of a hassle.
So "Switch to Linux!" is not really a solution for some. Let's hope that'll change in the future.
With that said, fuck Microsoft! I use NixOS btw.
First and foremost, I want you to know I am proud of you for taking on this adventure.
Building a house is no small feat, and yes, it will take time. Though it's not like you're sitting still—you're proactive. Every day you are getting closer to your goal. Don't give up and hang in there! We believe in you!
Hahahaha! Man, I found out about you on Lemmy and I must say you never disappoint. Your comics always crack me up!
I bought a Ender-3 V2 Neo on Black Friday for €168. Has been a great buy and I have learnt a lot tweaking it. Maybe there are better printers out there I am unaware of, but as a starter I'd highly recommend it.
Not all AI is bad. In the healthcare sector it could improve decision-making, produce personalised treatment plans, and so forth.
Obviously, the healthcare professionals will have final say, but it's a good tool to have. AI will not replace them. Though it will streamline cumbersome processes.
I am all for AI as long as it's used in a non-dystopian manner.
Matter of fact, when you do get a raise you need to ask yourself if it's truly a raise. Inflation decreases the purchasing power of your salary, so if you get a raise you might be getting what was your initial salary.
So perhaps you're pushing too hard
May well be the case. The way I train my grip is by no means professional. I've got them sitting on my desk. That means every time I see them my brain goes: "Oh yeah! Grip training. Let's do a couple reps". Not having them in sight makes me forget about them.
As you may realise, the problem with this approach is that I train them pretty much every day. No rest days. Only once I feel tremendously sore. Definitely a failure on my part. Thinking of putting them out of sight, but having an app on my phone remind me to use them every few days.
Also your grip strength is quite strong.
Compared to the average it is, I'd say. Still, closing the last gripper (112 kg according to the package) would be a huge confidence boost. Will it improve my life? Probably not, though it was never about that for me. It's more consistency training to me. Stay consistent and see results. That will certainly help me in other areas of life.
