As someone who’s lost their partner recently, this is exactly right. My favorite shows used to be medical ones and I cannot even see a commercial in a medical setting without getting pulled back to that day instantly. I was diagnosed with Complex PTSD because of the experience.

Sounds like OP has PTSD also. Meds and therapy for him and her, especially couples therapy, would be what’s needed. Don’t know what that looks like in a 3rd world country though.

I’m not against helping from pst. I work full time but if its an evening capable thing I’m more than happy to help if I can.

Edit: I don’t know how DMs work on connect/lemmy yet but message me if you want.

I’m not a developer of any sort, but I’m super interested if a “folding at home” style option is doable. I can’t front the costs for a whole server for an instance, but I’m totally willing to contribute some resources from my pc to avoid falling into the same reddit trap. If we all did it as users I think that would avoid the centralization problem as well as distribute costs effectively.

Imagine wanting some popcorn and candy to top it off… streaming from home is the way to go now and they did it to themselves.

It’s a shame too, because there are some movies that just benefit from that large form factor viewing. I’d love to go see Oppenheimer on imax but I’ll be damned if I have to spend 50 bucks to go watch it alone with some refreshments and snacks.
