Oh boy, do I hope we don't talk about the US in 2021, anymore. It's been like a slightly different, ever the same car crash you drive by, every day. For four fucking years. I am sure my dopamine receptors look like old, all dries

This. The world will end, if we treat every fucking word like an "opinion", which deserves to be heard. "Covid19 is a lie!1!!" isn't an opinion. It's ignorant non-sense at best, likely malicious, indirect inter

Me too. Today I realized, yesterday I apparently threw away the bathroom trash bin with the trash.... (It was upcycled, so no big loss.) Another ADHD compromise: I don't use the "eco" soaps (e.g. sugar surfactants) because, t

I get that about touch. For me typing and touch/pen input would make two distinct modes. In typing mode, I absolutely want the precision of a mouse/touchpad. Arms need to be rested on the table or similar. Working free-..ehm.. arm

Yes! But the major pain is Windows (and the hardware, isn't as efficient) It's like a worse Apple. I would also immediately go with a thinkpad $X Yoga, if there was a ryzen AND >FHD model. I think most people looking for a &quo

If someone makes the "non-apple M1" ARM SoC, then I'd be 100% sold on an PineTAB, if it got pen input, too. I would drop all the money I got on that. 2K @ 12" or 13", some USB-C ports, 500GB storage and a good batte

Let's be entirely honest, also: A perfect "laptop" would be a convertible, or tablet + X. The Air is not missing touch; the iPad is missing a full-access operating system. IMO, there is nothing a laptop has, a tablet couldn&#

I like the term "Yak shaving", however the story told was quite anticlimactic. Yak at a zoo? Really? Why not go all the way to Tibet. (Acknowledging the exclusive western perspective here. I fail to think of an analogy for the wes

Would that work for lag? I assume there is some predictive aspects to a fluent gameplay these days. Also for the server to decide which e.g. player someone can see or not, seems quite intense. This seems inadequate to prevent aim assistance

This is why I settled with a PS4 last year. Even on a Linux PC, I would feel "dirty" with games and steam installed, and I can't afford a PC exclusively for gaming. A PS4 costs 300€ and runs Skyrim, so I am quite happy. I am

That's the worst of it. If I wouldn't need ... site:reddit.com so often, and need some reddit-exclusive communities, I would cut this cancer at dns level for good. Reddit is way to addictive for me to only take the good bits. At s

I am not on twitter. What's with this canceling? Who got cancelled? What does that mean for them? Could you illustrate some examples?

This is not true. HN very much behaves like the rest. The hive mind here just keeps repeating the mantra while still downvoting dissenting opinions. Look at the other dead comment. Was that really bad enough to kill it? And from my experien

'Slide' on Android. They got an iOS version too, but it's not as polished and not that sliding... Slide is the best Android app I ever used and it's FOSS too, available on FDroid.

However, I noticed the tone changed everywhere somewhat. I think I witness the pandemic's toll on people's capacity for empathy by the impulsive rudeness creeping into every niche subreddit I frequent. Reddit became a shit show wi

Same here as well. Just a different echo. Like, try to challenge the boys club here and get the elders' disaproval... The problem is the voting. It's not inherently linked to the content's value to the discourse or even welfa

Another thing... You want a sincere diagnosis, based on what you got. Don't stress about finding the right words :) There are a ton of other things, which overlap with ADHD symptoms. Bipolar PD, depression, hidden sleep problems (like

No, actually meant sugar XD. But yeah, for the dopamine still. Otherwise your brain is looking for other sources. Stimulatory thoughts ("big ideas", exploding connections), or the usual procrastination with novelty mining. Sugar i

I mean actual sugar. Glucose signals your brain to refill the energy expenditure risk capacity. With ADHD your brain isn't normal. It's more active, it burns more and has less capacity for risk in energy expenditure (putting off

As someone with ADHD, I think I got an amplified impression on the issue at hand. These people are selling the fantasy of success/self-efficacy to those vulnerable people lacking executive functioning and prone to daydream their life.

Why do you think Saudi Arabia is slowly allowing women to participate? They need them in the workforce for an economically sustainable future. They know they are heading for crisis rapidly and investing hard to get out of there. However, th

Also standardize the composition and coloring. That's the major problem with recycling. I say transparent and one opaque variant for photoprotection.

That's an immature picture you are drawing there. You pretty much always trust some authority with what's a fact and what's not and twitter isn't taking that away from you. Have you verified every evidence yourself, for

Idk. But surely, you can't make your point without it, do you? I think success and fame is not an appropriate proxy.
25.
by 495636483 6y ago
Sure, but I think it's also easy to conflate success and talent with intelligence. I think many successful scientist are not particularly smart, but rather dilligent and educated; most innovation is not a leap, but a steady incremental

Was Jobs really that smart? Not sure that's the niche he filled successfully. More like Kinski, talented in some domain... but smart?! Jobs died pretty much by Dunning-Kruger effect, no?

by 495636483 6y ago
Now think about money as a metric for human prosperity. Which creatures really roam the markets and where is mankind's place there? Is any dynamic stability of intrinsic value to us? (Not trying to be edgy, or deep, I just think those
