Well, perhaps not Monero, and perhaps not a loaf of bread either, but also not far from that. One large e-shop in Slovakia I use (Alza) supports crypto payments via Confirmo (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, SOL, POL, LTC, TRX). They sell mostly electronics, but also some food items.

Now, since you’ve mentioned bread:

But I haven’t yet tried crypto.

Compatibility mode does that.

A bright screen will surely make me fall asleep.

ThinkPad? Without clit mouse? Am I supposed to use my own nipple, or god forbid, the TrackPad?

There’s also a RISC-V laptop - DC ROMA

But it’s still mostly experimental, rather than for regular usage.

Technically possible. How large would such a machine be though…

You’re making me feel like I miss it but I haven’t even started yet 💀

Depends. I don’t have a baseline for how others my age feel.

Physically, it’s probably lame, but still: I often have lower back pain and neck pain. Neck especially in the morning, lower back later in the day. Then there’s psoriasis, a persisting flare-up on the back of my scalp that managed to resist prescription-strength corticosteroids. Tonsil stones I can’t fully get rid of that I have to push out often. They can get slightly painful if left alone for a few days otherwise. Most food I eat either results in constipation or diarrhea. My right hip sometimes starts popping and it can get pretty uncomfortable when walking a lot. If I have to lift up something heavy, I’ll be shaky afterwards for quite a while. Yesterday I found out that I seem to have external hemorrhoids. My teeth are fairly sensitive, and I had a filling done on one of them.

Mentally: I am still studying. After I finish, the 5 days a week of school will get replaced with 5 days of work. I’ll still likely have to cut time from my sleep. Who knows, I’ll possibly need a part time job anyway, because minimum wage in Slovakia is just EUR 4.70/h. So, I’ll still be cutting my sleep to 3 - 4 hours. Then on weekends I won’t feel like doing anything, and anyway, I’ll sleep through most of the Saturday. Or, work part-time on weekends.
Things will keep getting more expensive faster than the wages increase. I’ll still be sure to know that almost every purchase is sponsored by slavery and damage to the ecosystem because that’s cheaper. Our government will eventually try to merge Slovakia into Russia… somehow. I won’t be making enough to leave the country.
I’ll have too keep up with the miserable life for roughly 40 - 50 years, then my body will be very well unusable. I won’t have any money saved up and die homeless.
I do not see a possibility for change towards better. People find it easier to excuse the government, corporation, or even individual billionaire or other person with power than say a homeless person they seen steal half a bread from supermarket.
Society cannot be fixed, it can only go extinct. And we will, perhaps not so far into the future, as the short-term gains are always preferred.

Simply, I feel like I am done with life. There won’t be anything good enough. Sure, there will be good moments, but not enough to justify to myself being born. A good introduction to antinatalism. I will not create further life. Hell, I’ve heard from people they had kids so that someone will take care of them once they retire. Disgusting.

For the track, I am 19. Life is just waiting for death. I wish it could be shorter.

Isn’t /64 like the minimum for certain applications anyway?

Unfortunately, I am behind CG-NAT, so it always barely uploads anything.

I wish it could work like WebRTC or Tailscale. There could just be servers like the trackers, but to help establish this direct connection between peers.

Is there something that has to be done first (like Windows generalization)?

They are newbies, for now.

I have had a Linux Mint USB (installed, not live) with me since middle school. Not the same one, of course, that was USB 2.0.
SanDisk CruzerBlade seems to work pretty well. On the other hand, a Panasonic flash drive I have is absolute shit for random access. Booting up install from it will take ages and then it will freeze up all the time.

External SSD would be best, but it’s not worth it for occasional use.

I was surprised that BlissOS (fork of Android x86) worked just fine with my bank’s app. But it still refuses to work when running it in VirtualBox. It has to be booted directly on the hardware.

Our experiences seem to differ. I currently have L390 Yoga and it’s the best thing I ever used. The cooling isn’t bad, just the feet are too thin to allow for flipping the screen over. Any cooling pad, or in my case an egg carton fixes this.
Mine has i5-8365U (4.1GHz).

The Ethernet is pretty stupid, but I’ve got the dongle from AliExpress for €9.31 and it’s working fine.

I really love the touchscreen in combination with Arch, KDE Plasma and Wayland. It also has pretty great colors, but I am coming from TN, so the bar was laying on the ground.
Driver-wise, everything works OOB on Arch (at least since September 2024 which is when I got it).

Really, I only have 2 problems with it:

1. The proprietary “Ethernet”
2. USB-C doesn’t allow charging from C to A cable despite supporting [email protected] charging from any proper USB-C.

I’ve got a cheap refurbished ThinkPad L390 Yoga. (€180) It’s plenty powerful and the touchscreen is awesome with KDE Plasma (but only with Wayland - X11 is not built for touchscreens, it only does mouse emulation).

Where are those? There isn’t much on the main page.

When I used Manjaro, there were threads for each major update. Known issues, known issues from past updates (if you didn’t get those yet), poll to see the update quality and a discussion thread.
E.g. the most recent one: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/stable-update-2025-04-12-kernels-plasma-systemd-mesa-grub-wine/176877

It could rather be more accurate in a dense area thanks to more cell towers. And it seems mmWave 5G can get below 1 meter in accuracy.

A cheap dumbphone could come in handy at almost any age* (calls, short SMS, especially in emergency situations). Though there is a possibility they wouldn’t want to be seen with that. Kids will bully each other for whatever isn’t a norm.
Anyway, preferably a simpler one. I used to spend hours each day on Java games. Really, the only thing that stopped me was headaches.

* Almost any - you don’t want a 3 year old calling 911 for fun

Oh, the other replies didn’t load for me at first. There’s also this:

Well, I’m sorry you guys are fighting about this. However, it has been my experience that if you don’t want him tracking you it’s because you’re going or doing something that makes him uncomfortable or there has been shadiness in the past. My question is why do you care if he knows where you are? If you’re not hiding anything or going against the boundaries set forth in your relationship what does it matter if he knows where you are? Yes i believe that by turning on your location and giving full access you will help with the location that it will show. It is not about being treated like a child but maybe more so of a safety or security reason. I promise you if you give into it and simply answer his questions without attitude and get him to understand that it’s not always accurate things will be better. When you’re in the car together have it on so he can see how accurate it is and maybe that’ll get him to realise how the system works. I promise you if you give into it for a little while he’ll not want to check it as much and will get bored and trust more. The arguing about it makes it look sketchy and there won’t be trust, which sounds like what you guys need. I am speaking from experience.

Czech T-Mobile also has this. It’s pretty cool they let you track the devices using their towers. Just the cost is different. There’s no location history, and it only does a location query on demand. Each query costs CZK 4.84 ($0.22).
Also, it needs “LPIN” which has to be set for the SIM card.

Well anyway, just looked up the FamilyWhere and this is the first result (excluding advertising):
https://www.t-mobile.com/community/discussions/accounts-services/familywhere-is-ruining-my-life/95189

so im a 34 year old woman who has a spouse that constantly uses the FamilyWhere app to track my location. That alone is extremely annoying. But what’s worse is that it’s oftern not accurate and tells him I’m at places that I am not. I’m not a child that needs to be tracked. does anyone know of an outside app that can completely block my gps signa? Turning off my location services on my iPhone doesn’t work. Please I’m so sick of fighting over the results it gives him. I called tomobile to ask them for help all the rep said was that he could disable my short codes, which would block the app. But since my spouse is the account holder all he had to do was call T-Mobile and reverse what I did. This is hell!!! Please someone any help is appreciated.
