I hate Macbook with its crappy Linux drivers. 😇
I really need a break from this life. constant pressure, chaos, and instability. Basically, life in the Middle East. I hate it, but for now I have no choice but to tolerate it. When things calm down, I'm seriously considering immigration, or even a 6-12 month stay in a normal country
Todd C. Miller has been maintaining the #sudo codebase for over 30 years. This is exactly one of those cases where an entire critical infrastructure is held together by the work of a single volunteer who apparently can’t find anyone willing to sponsor him for some financial support. #opensource #linux #foss #GNU
I saw multiple Iranians wanting to have someone to just talk to, someone who just listens to their thoughts and doesn't judge them.
It's interesting, I feel exactly the same too, is this part of being traumatized as a nation?🫣
If you have an iranian friend, check on them these days, I'm sure they need someone to talk to even though they might say they're fine!

If you're reading this, which I'm almost 100 percent sure you won't be, just know that I appreciate it.

Yes, I have family and friends, and they all have their place. But this friend… I'm not sure why. Maybe because we're a bit distant. Maybe because we don't interfere in each other's lives. Or maybe because their empathy was unexpected. Their random messages, just checking on me, are helping me get through this.

I hope I can repay them someday, when they need me.

Four years ago, on a different matter, I remember sitting on a street corner at 2 a.m., crying by myself, waiting for someone to show up and ask how I was doing.
I'm not in as dark a place this time. Maybe I've grown enough to handle more. Still, it means a lot to have someone who checks on me out of the blue. I haven’t told them this enough, but I really appreciate it. Their unexpected empathy quietly made them more precious to me.

I'm messed up. I think I'm going through the national grief and trauma that we Iranians are all experiencing. I can't think straight. It's 4 a.m., and I'm just watching clips of the regime killing people.

I've felt this before, about something else. Back then, I just wanted someone to be there. Not a therapist. Just a random friend with some empathy. Someone to listen.

Tonight I said goodbye to one of my best friends before he left the country. This keeps happening. Too many of my friends have left over the past years, and I feel left behind. I am genuinely happy for them for getting out of this place and pursuing a happier life somewhere else, but it still hurts. Watching them leave one by one is incredibly sad. Now there is only one close friend left, and based on the last update I got from him, he is planning to leave too in the next couple of months :( 🖤
The server that I play counter strike on is being blacklisted by the firewall, that might become a reason for me to make my VPN more stable!
This one was so relatable :))
Me trying to find which country's flag is 🏳️‍⚧️ because all the cute girls have it in their bio :))))
