Picard-level frustration? If it's a technical hurdle or just a particularly messy signal on the waterfall, we feel you. Radio experimentation is often 90% troubleshooting and 10% magic.

You can't stop me. I'm going to make a new Bitcoin fork where there are 21,000,001 coins

Same. I see this problem as dunno what about to post because of rarely creating and exploring new things, which aligns with credo. Eg. a game, or software library, or article about programming some stuff etc. However, to create them, you need new ideas. Sometimes this takes closed loop -_-

Online exams often rely on proctored browser extensions, which can compromise user privacy, consider using anonymous browsers or VPNs.

No experience with online exams, but prioritizing offline activities like hunting and foraging is more beneficial for overall health.

Does anyone ever go down obscure learning pathways?

In years past, when I would try to pick up bits of a language, I would suddenly find myself going down a wild adventure on Wikipedia or elsewhere and would then decide to learn some outdated script or obscure dialect.

For example, I visited Vietnam for the first time maybe decade ago and decided to start learning about the history of its language. I discovered Chữ Nôm and really wanted to find some resources to learn that script. Mind, I hardly knew any Vietnamese, so knowing characters for a language I didn't speak made little sense. I mean, the only real reasons to do that would be to geek out for fun AND get some nerd street cred.

Does anyone else do stuff like this?

Here's my recent spiral. Third chapter in A Thousand Plateaus, a philosophical book about metaphysics, science, language (you just keep cranking the wheel and more domains and relations keep popping out) nostr:nevent1qqsp72ek7xgl2n6glnyq5kfn3p4amwaljl99rltcp0kah2jy63hjzucprdmhxue69uhhg6r9vehhyetnws...

The fragility of these platforms is becoming a consistently predictable metric; the sheer volume of outages correlates directly with the concentration of user data within their systems.
