It seems to me that you are approaching this complex topic from an oversimplified view. Human behaviour isn't as simple as you put it.
I think it's best to encourage people to go see professionals if they suspect they might have a disorder or any kind of illness. But I think it's detrimental to tell them they are just imagining things as this might lead to serious issues flying under the radar.
Let the people decide who studied this.
Alright, please link your peer-reviewed study on this as soon as you were able to prove the generality of your personal impressions.
but it feels like everyone today needs to have some mental illness or disorder
What causes this impression?
You literally said:
Maybe in your desire to feel special
That is condescending.
you've got a better chance of being wrong than you do right
Although that "feels" reasonable, I wonder whether we have actual numbers on this.
I see. Thanks for clarifying that! I already thought you were joking, but wasn't so sure. Seems a lot of people didn't get it as you intended.
You could consider adding a flag like /j, /i or /s (depending on context) to such comments to avoid confusion.
Please provide an explanation, preferrably with sources, if you think my explanation is wrong.
it is wrong to want to be spoonfed your computing needs
Why though? It's not like you are building your own OS every time on assembler level, or do you?
Making software more convenient is one of the reasons for having software at all.
That doesn't mean turning it into an "opaque box" where company interests will be pushed. Having a more user experience oriented design in Linux distros can save a lot of time and frustration as well as make it more attractive to average users. Even power users, who work with Linux professionally will benefit.
And it just might start with something as simple as proper documentation of a package.
FYI: the packaging is not edible.
Exactly. There are so many who don't like tofu. Like my mother in-law, who just took a bite of raw tofu and came to the conclusion it's not for her. Yeah, no shit.
My wife and I then spent some time serving her various recipes, where tofu is one of the main ingredients. And now she likes it.
I like, what my wife says about tofu: it's like a blank canvas. You have to paint it with spices and various cooking methods to make it beautiful.
Another comparison are Mozzarella cheese or noodles. Bland and boring on their own, but great in combination with sauces and spices.
... Now I wan't to eat the "scrambled tofu", my wife sometimes cooks. It's fucking delicious.
Was? Es gibt zu viele Politiker in Regierungsverantwortung, die kein rationales Denken vorweisen und daher nicht auf Wissenschaftler:innen und Expert:innen hören? Deswegen mitunter wird Fehlentscheidung nach Fehlentscheidung getroffen? Ist mir ja mal total neu. /s
In case you are serious or someone else is serious about this:
Masks, just like underwear, are permeable. If they wouldn't be, you would suffocate as no air would be able to reach your lungs. (At your rear, that's just a consequence of low requirements towards the material, which mainly serves as a covering and being able to dry.) So gas molecules are usually not stopped to pass through your underwear or masks.
The main difference between, e.g. FFP2/3, masks and your underwear is the size of particles that are able to pass through. Your underwear will be able to catch some moisture of a juicy fart and probably some shit particles. However, most of the gases and smaller particles can pass through. Filter masks are able to stop most particles down to a certain size. For FFP 2 masks at least 94% of particles down to a size of 0,6 micrometers can be stopped. Particles smaller than that are likely to pass through. FFP 3 masks block at least 99% of particles down to the same size.
The thing with viruses like Covid-19 is, that they are usually expelled from an infected person via the respiratory system, that means, your mouth and nose. There, the virus cells are mostly soluted within the moist air you breathe out. Moist air means: there are very tiny (mainly) water particles which are spread over a certain volume of gas. And they are floating with the currents of the gas. That's what basically constitutes an aerosol. Particles, tiny and lightweight enough to float with a gas (for a while).
You can see that clearly with spray cans. With breathing air it's not so good to see with the naked eye.
Those moist particles, loaded with virus cells, are usually large enough to be filtered out by FFP masks. It's not perfect of course, but it can help a great deal and contribute to prevention measures.
The stinky stuff in farts is afaik a pure gas and not an aerosol. (Did you know that in terms of gas volume, just about 2 % of a single fart contains the smelly chemicals?) Which is why neither masks, nor underwear help so much against stinky farts.
FFP masks are mandatory in jobs where dangerous smaller particles can enter your body. They help against dust, smoke and a lot of aerosols. But they don't filter out pure gases. That's what gas masks are for.
In terms of infection spreading, a neat side-effect of masks is that they can slow down the velocity of exhaled air, which helps to reduce how far the aersol spreads around a person. Trying to blow out a candle while wearing a mask isn't as easy as without a mask, which demonstrates this effect.
Futhermore, there has been a study suggesting that wearing a mask for a while or wearing it during rainy weather can - up to a certain point - further improve the filter capabilities of such face masks, since the moisture accumulates on the surface of the mask (in- and/or outside) and by this forms another protective barrier.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
The Mopes ist auch erstaunlich unschlecht. Richtig grandios aber auch nicht. Nette Idee auf jeden Fall.
While that would indeed be awesome, that's not the route they proposed. It's more about slowing down the perception of time, rather than being able to actually do something peoductive during that.
Philosopher Rebecca Roache, who leads a team of scholars, explains two methods to this madness. The first involves psychotic drugs that distort a person’s sense of time.
With a simple pill or injection, prisoners may believe they’ve been incarcerated for much longer than any natural human life could allow.
The second approach Roach explains is a bit more complex. Option number two involves uploading human minds to computers (da f*ck?), and speeding up the rate at which the brain functions. On her blog, Roach writes: "[...] This would, obviously, be much cheaper for the taxpayer than extending criminals’ lifespans to enable them to serve 1,000 years in real time.”

Despite thinking, "wow that's a disgusting way to see and treat humans", and some obvious moral concerns (like, social isolation for what feels like 1000 years, which will fuck up most people badly), which make this feel like a black mirror episode, the mind-upload issue is technically extremely tricky. Even if we had the technology to "upload" the human mind, it will be a copy, a clone, not you individually. And if we don't have an option to download the copy back into your brain, it will just be a waste of energy.
More importantly, an intriguing question is raised: After such a download, will this be you? Or just a copy of a copy and thereby another being which just replaces another one.
Another thing I find important to ask here: what's the point of penalties? These suggestions seem to me like psychological torture rather than measures to "correct" social behaviour. In no way resocialisation seems to matter here. So we just fuck people up by that and unleash them onto society afterwards. Doesn't sound good to me.
Sorry for not keeping my reply focused on your idea. I had some time to spare and this kept me busy.
And that's the problem, because everyone is coerced to do that if they want to survive. And those, who own the means of production, the capital, the companies, are those who have the power to exploit those who don't. And they do.
EDIT: Looks like consumption of fat contents in meat inversely correlates with testosterone, so vegans might actually be more masculine by that definition.
Could you please provide your source for that? I would like to read more on that.

Wahrscheinlich eine nicht ernst gemeinte Frage bzw. Spaßfrage, aber die Kreativität muss man erst mal haben. Inzwischen wurde die Frage gelöscht.
Transkription:
Bild einer Frage von Gutefrage.net. Die Frage lautet: "Ist es auffällig mit einem Bobby Car jeden Tag zur Schule zu fahren?"
Der Text zur Frage lautet: "In meiner letzten Frage ging es ya um Superhelden bzw. Superkräfte. Das Ziel eines heldens ist es doch seine wahre Identität geheim zu halten und weil ich deshalb nicht auffallen darf wenn ich zur heldin auserwählt werde fahre ich mit nem BOBBY CAR zur Schule. Ich will nicht dass später sonst alle eine vermutung haben dass ich die Heldin bin, deshalb wollt ich unauffällig tun und gehe seit der 5 Klasse jeden Tag mit nem BOBBY CAR zur Schule. Damit niemand eine Vorahnung haben, weil es ist nicht sch9n wenn tausende Leute nach Autogramm fragen nur weil ich deren Leben gerettet habe und schon gar nicht wenn meine Familie nach spioniert wird. Aber immer wenn ich mit dem Bobby Car fahre guckt mir jeder an manche lachen und manche gucken mich so komisch an. Kann es sein dass schon einige wissen dass ich eine zukünftige Heldin bin? Ich will meine wahre Identität geheim halten um den Weltfrieden zu bewahren. Ich möchte euch alle ya nicht mit rein ziehen, deshalb tue ich das. Es ist nähmlich mein mein Traum Heldin zu werden und Menschen leben zu retten. Aber einmal ist der reifen meines Bobby Cars kaputt gegangen und ich musste mir ein neues kaufen aber für zwei tage musste ich ohne zur Schule gehen und ich fand es ein wenig peinlich. Was wenn sie es jetzt wissen? Ich hahe mich geschämt dass ich zwei tage ohne Bobby Car zur Schule gegangen bin und habe mich in meinem zimmer eingekrochen. Aber jetzt fahre ich wieder mit dem Bobby Car und halte meine zukünftige Identität im verborgenen. Ist das gut? Und ich will ya auch nicht, dass mir mein Bobby Car weg genommen wird weil dann ist meine Tarnung endgültig enttarnt. Versteht ihr mich?"

Summary: Atheists / secular people not only have morals but are even more moral than religious people.
Note: Of course moral is a matter of perspective. In this context we agree that compassion and empathy are our foundations of moral.

Manche neigen dazu beim Schlafen zu sprechen. Dabei können ziemlich seltsame und auch lustige Phrasen zustandekommen.
Eine meiner Lieblinge, die ich wohl mal gefragt habe: "Bist du meine schwarze Tintenmaschine?"
Was für seltsame Dinge habt ihr mal zu jemandem oder jemand anderes zu euch im Schlaf gesagt?
Siehe zum Beispiel hier: https://act.wemove.eu/campaigns/fischzucht Obwohl die Petition beendet ist, ploppen noch Nachrichten auf mit Vornamen von irgendwelchen Menschen, welche die Petition angeblich gerade erst entweder unterschrieben oder auf Facebook geteilt haben.
Wie kann das bei einer abgeschlossenen Petition sein?
Wird einem da (auch bei noch laufenden Petitonen) konsequent suggeriert, dass es eine rege Beteiligung gäbe, obwohl dem gar nicht so ist? Ich würde es unter dem Gesichtspunkt verstehen Leute zum Mitmachen zu animieren. Aber ich finde es schon etwas tückisch so etwas zu simulieren. Das lässt für mich an der Seriösität solcher Plattformen zweifeln.
(Ohnehin sollte man kritisch bei Petitionen bleiben, wenn man bedenkt wie einfach sich diese erstellen lassen ohne z.B. Beweise für etwaige Behauptungen liefern zu müssen.)
Hier ist es den Betreibern wohl noch nicht aufgefallen, weshalb die kleinen Pop-Up Fensterchen fröhlich weitertanzen.
Hat da jemand von euch Erfahrungen mit oder Infos zu?
