Please don’t give up on making friends - you just haven’t found your group yet and it may or may not be the same people you’re with in University. See if there’s a group nearby that shares an interest in an activity you enjoy. Give yourself a goal of trying 3 activities/groups and attend a few sessions. It’s sometimes tempting to bail after a single session, so I’d try to stick with it a few times (unless you’re absolutely certain you will never enjoy it).

As others in this thread have said, most other people are too busy and involved in their own lives to think that much about anyone else, so I suspect your concerns about people talking badly about you are very overblown. Don’t let your insecurities fill in an imaginary void of what other people are thinking.

Being social is a skill and it takes time to hone, just like any other. You have to put in the time and be willing to put yourself in the vulnerable position of being around new people and accept that you’re going to click with some better than others.

Friendships are vitally important to our mental health and I hope you don’t give up on forging them. You just haven’t found your circle yet, so keep trying!

You can definitely put them up and take them down faster.

Compared to NYC, Paris is downright spotless.

How?

Who doesn’t??

(preparing for inevitable downvotes) depending on how much storage you need and the flexibility you have in how you use it, Office365 includes 1TB of OneDrive storage for 6 users for somewhere around $100/yr. I use it for storing encrypted video files from my NVR and it works for my use case, but ymmv.

Sir/Madam, as an expert in this area, I draw issue with your comment: several of these can be performed WHILE shitting. The determination of which specific activities are compatible is an exercise left to the reader.

If I could upvote you twice, I would.

Yep, no fun. I also can’t stand strong perfumes and colognes.

I have two useless talents:

• Highly developed sense of smell (sometimes a liability)
• Ability to identify voice actors with high accuracy

I once identified the source of a minute gas leak in my basement, which had evaded the calibrated detection equipment of the utility company, so I guess I can’t say it’s completely useless.

You know you’re screwed when you need a psychic to prepare your taxes.

Your feature suggestion will probably get more visibility with the devs if you put in a feature request in the Memmy GitHub project:

Are you looking for something with a nice UI or just hardware you can install your OS on and roll everything yourself? What’s your budget?

Ubiquiti makes a pretty user-friendly rack-mounted router: https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/udm-pro

You can also check out pfSense, which is an OS that does routing and more. You can install it on your own hardware or buy a machine through them: https://www.pfsense.org/products/

If you’re just looking for a compact server that you can install your own OS on, then SuperMicro has a sale going on right now: https://store.supermicro.com/us_en/catalogsearch/result/?q=SuperServer 1u&categories=Deals

Just know that whatever you pick to replace the router-portion of your current Netgear device, you’ll also have to invest in a separate WiFi access point to provide your wireless network.
