I hope you all don't mind posting this here. It took quite some time to figure out how to compile this (old) version.

I've created a Minetest (now called luanti) 0.4.17.1 server.

IP/Port: haton.top:30000
You'll need version 0.4.17.1 to join.
Download it here: https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/releases/tag/0.4.17.1

Read the rules here: https://haton.top/minetest.htm

See ya there!

Why do you bother with an old version?
Is luanti really worth it? They killed minecraft somewhere around version 1.9, but still?

i have a question. When is the 
LateStation on ?
Whenever radio anon gets around to it, really. He's a busy man, so who knows. If all else fails, figure out how to host it yourself.
>it's still ded
if you want to spend $5 on a VPS and 20 minutes setting it up it shouldn't be that hard. i'm a cheap bastard though

I finally found this place again after hours of looking. Been coming here since when the original 8chan was still up through when this was its own site. Its been my favorite board and a comfort zone through my late teens. Been a few years since Ive come back or been active on here. But man life has been a ride, Trying to get sober now aswell and get my life on track again.

way i do it i try to be more social which taught me to be more outgoing but forced me to be more selective at the same time, so now i regularly chad with old neighbors, or relatives on the phone
i also took time to think about what i would enjoy reading or watching (old media), and always try to set up a comfy environment so that i don't want to get up and check my phone
this in turn inspired me to start writing to prepare some pathfinder campaigns im planning to try this summer

what helped me the most was mentally preparing myself to not be available for x time, like
>after dinner im reading for 1 hour then off to bed
>tonight ill sleep early so that tomorrow morning ill spend 2 hours sunbathing
>saturday morning i have to try out this new romhack i downloaded
always telling myself that after im done i can check my phone and whatnot, this reduced my smartphone usage so much i only have to charge it once a week now kek

Actually scratch that. I live my life in computers, where I go by the hacker alias Not-4chan, and am guilty of practically every computer thingy there's a software driver for...

The problem is me wasting time with my old ways...instead of focusing on the far-brighter future coming down the pike very soon! They tell me 'old habits are hard to break'. I think I can break free from the dreamworld though!!  :DD

It's a little scary to me how addicted people are.

>You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it.

How do we go back?  Top heh.  The problem is much bigger than the black mirrors: it's 21 years' worth of accumulated brain damage from addiction to socmed, etc.  It's normies in general being no smarter or wiser or moral than the dirt-farming peasants they've been for thousands of years— now networked and equipped with cameras so that the world can have non-stop feeds of public displays of baboonery.

The better question is of how things can ever get better, because going back simply isn't an option, and the answer is probably something spergy like "a natural aristocracy arises and forms parallel institutions which gradually replace the current decrepit, corrupt institutions."

That, or a giant solar flare EMPs the whole planet back to the 1930s.  People won't be getting any wiser, but circumstances can still take the attractive nuisances from their hands.

Hey everyone.

What do you guys do before going to bed? Do you guys sleep well? 

Personally I just shut down my pc and just go to sleep.

For me it takes time to actually start sleeping (usually an hour). I'll go to bed but after some time I'm just thinking my own thoughts and I can't fall asleep.

Time is a scary monster.
My daily prayers help me get a grasp on it but as soon as I open a book or start working on something or start thinking time just dips.
>>2679 (OP) 
>What do you guys do before going to bed?
I turn off my PC and take medication. Sometimes, I work out. While in bed, I feel myself dip toward dreams as my mind wanders as a form of hypnagogia, so I try to think about pleasant or interesting things or nothing at all. It doesn't always work, and I have something like Exploding Head Syndrome when I feel myself going into dreams I know will be bad.
>Do you guys sleep well?
I only sleep well when I'm exhausted, drunk, sick, or injured. I think my bed is part of why I have this problem. I haven't had a consistently comfortable bed in years. I would be more comfortable sleeping on the ground or floor. When I wake up, I've forgotten who I am and feel free until I remember my responsibilities. With these responsibilities comes remembrance of who I am and what I have and done, and I'm suddenly pulled by a suffocating weight. At least my dreams are sometimes entertaining.
>I'm just thinking my own thoughts and I can't fall asleep
I have this issue when I'm on my back, yet I sleep best and have the most pleasant dreams when I'm tired enough to sleep that way.

also every character seems to be written as an archetype that needs to mature and overcome some flaw

>merry needs to mature and learn to face consequence
>boromir needs to be in control of his unyellding loyalty to gondor so it doesn't tempt him to take the ring

>elrond needs to accept change and be more trusting towards men

What's your favorite music video at the moment and why?

mine is: https://youtu.be/SECVGN4Bsgg?si=4TUzmPq99H3KaeVU

I like how it shows his paranoia, the protagonist seems afraid of the outside world and wants to be left alone, possibly hinting at feelings of anxiety or mistrust.

How does one get out of the house recreationally?
I love taking hikes and working out, but that's all I do. I need something else. I don't mind spending little money, but shopping gets stressful because I don't have a lot of space. My friends aren't in the area right now, and it's pretty tough to make any more when I don't leave the house. I don't drink and I don't particularly like boozers, so bars are off the table. Bands never come into my area, so concerts aren't viable. I've looked for stuff for ages, and come up with nothing.

I remember my brother chasing me around the house with a toy spider when I was pretty young and being freaked out. That was the first time I ever recall being scared of them. Even though he was doing it to frighten me and had no problem with them at the time, he soon developed a fear of bugs too. It's really weird.

You need to learn to casually socialize. No drink, that's cheating.
In the beginning just learn to strike up conversations at the park, in the bus, at the shop. This is something every child should learn, but schools and spoiled children permanently ruin it for some kids.
Not everyone will like you, and you need to learn to accept it. Some people won't have the time, some are autistic, but sometimes a quick casual interaction can make someone's day, at virtually no cost if you learn to make your peace with the fact that everyone in the world will want to befriend you.

Have you considered going to church ? To a library ?
A girl I knew in hs used to go to a shelter and volunteer to walk the dogs. The idea sounds unpleasant to me but it may suit you.

Hello everyone! I was talking to someone the other day and we discussed hikki things. One thing he mentioned that I never really considered is that solitude can become loneliness depending on your perception of yourself. 

What I've come to ask you all is, do you enjoy your own company? Do you make yourself laugh and enjoy being alone with yourself? It's proven that, too much time by yourself will make you go mad, but in short bursts it's actually very healthy. This leads to striking a balance between human interaction and solitude being the best way to live life. How do you feel when you're alone? How do you feel when you're around friends? Do you look forward to the transition between being alone and sharing a space with other individuals and vice versa?

I enjoy my own company and although I'm very timid and nervous when it comes to imminent human interaction, I enjoy it in the moment and am glad it happened after the fact. I look forward to being by myself at the end of the day and maybe even for a full day to detox from the world, but after a few days of not seeing anyone or hanging out with anybody I become more and more lonely and seek interactions, even if they're just phone calls. I grew up with many friends in my neighborhood, but they all ended up moving away by the time I was in my teen years and the only friends I had up until recently were people online that I'd speak to almost every day. These days, I have a large circle of good friends in real life, so I m

I make myself laugh often, even all alone. I'll break into bits too just for myself. 

I'm often alone, but almost never lonely. I do feel very isolated, if that makes sense as a different feeling.

I don't see a lot of people.
I don't care either way. My feelings don't belong to me. Whether I feel comfortable alone or not depends on the amount of stress and anxiety. I just use whatever mood is at hand based on my previous experience. I prefer being alone. But there isn't much of anything either way, so I'd be glad to have better social grounding to lay my hands on some money. But it's fine either way. Sun still rises every day, so long as I've got some food on my plate I'm fine.
I like spending time with family, but other than that I prefer to be alone. If I lived by myself, then I imagine I might get more lonely.
