- Comment on What might you think of these Odds? featuring ChatGPT 14 hours ago:
Alright, not easy situation, but “odds” don’t matter.
Wait the required time before getting a test (it won’t detect it too early), then take a test. I don’t know how long that’s for each STI. If you suspect you may have some STI, abstain from sex and blood donations, and contact people you’ve had sex with recently. Embarrassing but responsible. If you’ve recently donated blood, contact the donation center ASAP and explain the situation.
Lastly, don’t trust LLMs’ output. They have no idea what they’re doing, it’s just text prediction on steroids. Always ask it for sources and check those if regular search engine doesn’t work. Especially not for medical questions for fucks sake.

I didn’t.
I have no fucking idea. I just finished HS, still don’t know. So I’ll go to college. Something in IT, I didn’t even check the specifics or subjects until I was already accepted and signed up. All I know is the program is regarded as one of the hardest, described by past students as “Vietnam war”, with one of the first recommendations to pass being “Get a therapist.”
I’ll probably get kicked out after 1st semester due to math. I am not good at it, and it’s apparently quite hard there, though not the worst either.
Hopefully not. I don’t know what else to do.Now, if my future paycheck wasn’t a problem (i.e. not living in capitalist society), I’d know precisely what I’d want to do, and I known so since 1st year of HS. I wouldn’t even need college.
Step 1 is getting a driver’s license (just for regular cars), probably just due to bureaucracy. Step 2, sign up for train driver’s course at ZSSK. The course itself is 6 months, then 720 hours of practice and after finishing the state exam, you finally become an actual train driver. So around a year.
But it isn’t paid so well.In IT, preferably something around wireless telecommunications and networking. The faculty I’ll be going to apparently has their 2G, 3G and 4G networks students can play around with (from their website). But when I asked about it on open doors day I was met with “We have that? Maybe.”
Asking about telecommunications, I got ping ponged between 2 faculties of the same university. Students from faculty of electrical engineering told me that if somewhere it’s something offered on faculty of informatics. Staff of faculty of informatics told me it’s most likely to be found on faculty of electrical engineering.So I don’t fucking know what I am getting myself into.

So I checked it to be more precise.
I only found price mentioned in forum by Benu pharmacy employee from 2023, stating 123.50 EUR per dose. So 370.50 in this case.
For people aged 12 - 14, this is fully paid. 18 and up, fuck you.
15 - 17, depends on the insurance company.
Insurance company Covered amount VsZP (state-owned) Up to 31.45 EUR per dose Dovera (private) Up to 257.16 EUR depending on insurance length - (per dose) 85.72 if > 10 years, 61.23 EUR if > 5 < 10 years, 36.73 if < 5 years Union (private) 50% per dose But again, as an adult, no luck.

It’s certainly weird that today’s young people aren’t fucking when we were going nuts during the AIDS epidemic
I am certainly not normal enough to represent anyone else here, but while not HIV, I do fear HPV (the sexually-transmitted strains).
My parents did not get me vaccinated against it when it would have been covered by insurance, because… because.
So, some quick overview from my mind which you shouldn’t trust as a source of information: Often marketed as something to protect women from cervical cancer, thus being reduced to “the vaccine for girls”. That’s often the view of public even now that it is also recommended to boys, which wasn’t always the case. Even then, the reason often ended up being not spreading HPV onto women. People being stupid -> Either “I have a boy, so it doesn’t matter.” or “I raised my girl well, she won’t need it.”
Well anyway, for men, throat cancer, anal cancer and penile cancer sound pretty relevant.
Speaking of penile cancer, yesterday I came across photo of a man who got large cancerous growth on his trunk as a result of HPV, and had to undergone penectomy (i.e. bye dickie), plus the radiation therapy went wrong causing large burns.
All in all, basically a cancer vaccine, only effective if you didn’t come into contact with HPV, which most sexually active people do, also why it’s typically only given to kids.So, moving on, Gardasil-9 protects against 9 high-risk strains. Doesn’t sound like a bad idea even if you had sex, likely you haven’t collected all 9 yet. But certainly best before.
So, 3 doses, 2nd after 2, 3rd after 6 months. I think they take around a month to become effective, so I guess 7 months for total vaccination. Paid by patient, almost 400 EUR for all 3 doses as far as I could find in my country.So, not like I could get any regardless, but safer sex would cost me 7 months of waiting and almost 400 EUR while I am about to start college and make 4.70 EUR per hour. And it cannot be fully done retroactively. It’s also good to have saved some money. If my laptop or phone breaks, I need a replacement immediately (and I sure as fuck want another convertible ThinkPad).

I don’t think they block VPNs, they just use Cloudflare which often ends up being shitty. I iust tried 2 servers from Mullvad, and it works fine.
But I think it kept blocking me when I used Lifecell SIM card, like many other websites behind Cloudflare.At this point if I see CF page I iust leave. It’s not worth waiting to see if the captcha let’s you in (most likely not).

And without Discogs I am screwed. They’re PayPal only now, and PayPal shadow-banned me. I used to be able to pay on like 10th attempt with a different virtual debit card tried each time over 2 days, but now it doesn’t even decline me. It just straight sends me to “We’re sorry…” page.

Is it? I usually see them priced around similar to DVDs, that is like €3 - 15. Though I don’t recall if new. Certainly so for the upper part, I only want to spend like €5 for used ones.
I like Momox for used and Rarewaves for new discs.Well, unless… the price you mentioned seems right for UHD BluRay.

So it can only be used for one thing at a time? (support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/…/ios)
Even my cheap Android phone does this better, although I wish there were more modes like triple, short then long, 2 short then long, or changing action for when screen is locked vs unlocked (e.g. flashlight when locked, toggle VPN when unlocked).
But it’s at least something.

I think civilization is probably just ending after these last few generations, frankly
Someone’s probably trying to stop that already, in a way. Low(er) sentences for rape and abortion bans. Maybe will be followed by something else, like decreasing age of consent. Or banning things like hysterectomy, salpingectomy, vasectomy.
