procrastination is not primarily about laziness or poor time management. At its core, procrastination is an emotional regulation problem, deeply rooted in fear
I suppose an empty hand gesture is about all the sociopaths in the c-suite can muster as far as conveying human-like emotions.

NewPipe excels at this task.
In most cases, not all that much. YouTube is mainly useful for getting views and building an audience. It’s a combination of revenue sources like sponsors, merchandise, donations, etc., that really make it worthwhile for creators.

6·5 days agoYawn, we all know how this goes. So what model am I not supposed to use? I’ll be sure and avoid it, though I’d much rather avoid downloading their leaked weights like I avoid other things I’m not supposed to download.
The studies about intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation suggest otherwise, and that monetary rewards can even have a negative impact on productivity and creativity. Ultimately, we want a society of intrinsically motivated people doing their best, most inspired work, not a society following financial incentives.

Interesting, I’ve only ever had this issue in Mint as well.
My Mint laptop audio stopped working for a couple months and then miraculously fixed itself this week. I made various attempts to fix it with no luck. It’s either a hardware issue or some obscure software issue.
In the past, I had plugged in a HDMI cable to mirror the screen and couldn’t get the audio working again until I plugged it back into HDMI and switched it back to the internal speakers before unplugging HDMI. Before the audio broke this time, I had connected a USB microphone, so it’s possible that’s what did it.




I thought it was a stereogram, but alas nothing popped out at me.
