  • What kind of twatwaffle writes this crap. Fuck your planned obsolescence.

  • Musk pretends he's something he's not on Shitter all the time.

  • The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin

    OG SatAM Sonic the Hedgehog, the dark one where his family and friends have been roboticized.

  • I lived for years without meds before COVID and wish I still could.

    Not everyone can or should, however, should you be able to find a way to roll with it and use it while recognising your limits and when you need to change tasks etc, it can be much better to use tools than to use medication.

    Medications like ADHD meds are not a type of medication that builds up and maintains a status quo of effect. They burn out and they must, because most of them are methamphetamine based and would keep you up all night.

    So, like pain meds, ADHD meds have a pendulum effect. Whatever ADHD focus is without them is a baseline; the pendulum is at rest. When you take them, your focus improves greatly which makes all the other symptoms easier, and now your relative baseline from your perspective has shifted. You want normal to feel like that all the time, and by comparison, your natural baseline is much much worse.

    But then the meds wear off, and you take dive in the evening. Rather than returning to your normal baseline, you go more off the rails as your perspective has shifted, which increases the overwhelming nature of your baseline, and its like the pendulum swings past the resting point into a level of disorder you've never felt.

    As someone who struggles with weight due to ADHD hyperfocus combined with late night cravings, this is a death knell to self control and weight control; however as mentioned without the meds post-covid, I cannot focus at my job. So they are absolutely necessary now.

    Its better to not deal with a swinging pendulum, but sometimes its better to get yourself into a better place.

  • Hmmm... Not sure if satire. If only there was a hint.

  • Hence why Canadians are ceasing to travel to the US in record numbers and that has not recovered at all.

  • Having already gone to e/OS and degoogled, avoiding apps on the play store - I've just been using the webapps via Fennec for banking, and its been fine. No notifications.. But these days most of my important bank notifications can be emails.

  • This. It burns too much electricity, wastes too much water and is wrong 70% of the time. Even if its private and offline the problems with it go waaaaay beyond that.

  • Working hardware drivers. Stable phone and SMs applications.

    Have yet to see either on any Linux Distro for Fairphone

  • What's with the phrasing here? If you combine the population of the other states that's a lot of people and of course Wisconsin has less.

    I know what they are intending here, but what they intended and what they said don't line up at all.

  • 2011, contracting for a web marketing agency I came across a tool they used that aggregated data from Market, Salesforce and data brokers.

    You could put someone's email in, and it would tell you every bit of info they ever filled out on a form for a sale or a freebie.

    Name and address were often there, sometimes DoB, sometimes other PID, then there was shopping habits and history etc.

    It was creepy as fuck. I dropped Facebook and twitter at the time. And I never filled a form or answered any questions at a till again. Then I started blocking trackers.

  • Would be awesome to create an offlined ZIM archive with this like they did with FreeCodeCamp so you can use on your local device with Kiwix.
