so i've had two things happen in the past few days with a friend group:

1. we were discussing videogame controllers and their quality, and i was criticizing a cheap model thats usually sold in my country (this one if ur curious). i was saying the sticks are completely useless, their deadzone is gigantic and i couldn't play anything with it. the group chat told me "it's a 15 dollar controller, its good to have standards but nothing is ever enough for you"
2. i said i was thinking about buying an old boombox for music (this model specifically, sony cfd f10), and they suggested to buy a knockoff JBL speaker because i can connect it to the phone. i said i dont like the sound quality of them and i'd prefer to buy something better, and they repeated the phrase "nothing is ever enough for you" and suggested that "you'd rather starve than eat something simple"

now, these two incidents got me thinking: do i care TOO much about small details?

when i download music i care about quality (i check the spectograms of the audio files to make sure the MP3s are real 320kbps and that the FLACs are real lossless, and i also check the tags so no song/artist is mislabelled). with movies i care about video quality (i check the bitrates of the video files and make choices depending on the size of the file and its resolution).

when i buy any kind of equipment or tech product i google everything i can and look for specific models before buying some random product from a no-name brand i randomly find in a store, and if it is a digital appliance, i check if i can hack it and/or jailbreak it so i can make the most of it.

when i look for new clothes i check for the measurements of the garment, how it fits to my body shape and what fabric it is made from.

i feel like when any single thing interests me, i end up learning too much about it to the point my enjoyment of the thing depends too much on small abstract details. i notice too much and i can't talk about anything because everyone else doesn't notice the same things. like what do you mean this music album "sounds nice"? didn't you notice how the dynamic range is all fucked up so the production becomes too bland to the point of detriment.

is this an autism thing or am i just extremely picky and annoying about everything? (i'm on assesment for level 1 autism, so all of this will be known to my therapist in a couple days)

Platform(s): PC (i dont know if its available for consoles)

Genre: platformer / first person / parkour

Estimated year of release: 2018-2022 give or take

Graphics/art style: semi realistic. dreamy enviroments

Notable gameplay mechanics: you are on a big map and you have to fall down platforms. the movement is bit floaty and the goal is to get to the floor without falling down (if you fall down for a couple seconds you die and have to retry from the platform you jumped on). i remember there was a map of a giant tree, i think?

Other details: i remember i saw a gaming video essay that talked about this game among other things, but i forgot the name of the video. help would be appreciated!

sometimes my debian installation just breaks! i dont understand the causes and i dont even know how to start diagnosing this... but i do see some patterns:

- i can't open any programs. i cant even start a terminal

- if i have the terminal open, i try to run simple commands like ls but it fails with a "input/output error"

- system tray icons are fucked up: they become invisible when highlighting it with the mouse, and when i click on any of them, the fonts only show blank rectangles, like the fonts didnt load

- if im installing something through steam, all the downloads are cancelled and it says theres a "disk write error"

- i can't even shut down nor reboot the computer through normal means. i have to hard force a shutdown pressing the start button for a couple seconds

now, i have NO IDEA why this happens. the only things that i can do to reproduce the situation seem to be completely unrelated. i once tried to run a game through wine (but not through terminal, but making a desktop entry) and it broke the system. plus, last time this happened, i just was installing a game through steam. therefore, it may be that the reason this happens is unrelated to any of these things at all.

i'm running debian 13 trixie, kernel 6.12.85, kde plasma. any help to start troubleshooting this?

hace bastantes años se subió esta webserie (o "telenovela casera" como decían los directores) venezolana a youtube, y se hizo más o menos famosita en las redes sociales por lo mala que estaba hecha. la terrible actuación, edición y trama la volvió bastante chistosa e hizo que muchos le agarraramos cariño (incluyendome) a pesar de la baja calidad.

hoy en día es imposible encontrar la serie para verla de nuevo. en la playlist del canal se puede ver que todo el contenido relacionado a la serie fue vuelto privado. lo único que en mi conocimiento sobrevive, aparte de clips sueltos por las redes, es esta videoreacción donde se puede ver el primer episodio, pero fuera de eso nada.

alguien por ahí que tenga la serie descargada en su disco duro y la pueda compartir? o que de casualidad tenga mejores habilidades para googlear que yo y pueda encontrar un lugar donde mirarla?

he hecho un post en el subreddit de r/lostmedia con más información. https://www.reddit.com/r/lostmedia/comments/1t0f9er/partially_lost_bella_obsesi%C3%B3n_amateur_venezuelan/
