Don't forget the "I forgot the item existed and will only remember when I stumble on it after buying a new one and looking for a place to store it, so it might as well be lost."
Half the problem with autism and adhd both is difficulty with habit formation and maintenance.
You don’t need habits. You need routines with reliable contextual triggers. They’ll fail from time to time and you will just have to be okay with that, and try to figure out exactly what made them fail when they do so maybe you can fix it going forward. But it will still occasionally fail.
You can’t make a sieve not leak without making it not a sieve.
Triggers are the real key. Like needing to use the bathroom in the morning. Then hang a habit of taking meds right after. You have to look at the habits you already have, and connect new things to that. You can also build new habits, but if they are forced, they won't have a high success rate. I built a habit of looking back into a space I am walking out of when not in my home. I built it on the anxiety of forgetting something. So it stuck. I try to build a habit of letting others talk, but it has no trigger, so it hasn't stuck.
That's why I have my meds, deodorant, shoes, hair brush, and hair ties on/near my coffee table. I make my coffee every morning, sit at the couch and (except brushing my teeth) get ready for the day. I let my brain put things where it'll actually use them.
I just moved a few weeks ago. At my last place all of that was in my kitchen. It's weird how moving changes where my brain wants to do stuff
I put a spare toothbrush and paste in the shower so I see it when I reach for the soap, otherwise it turns invisible. IT'S RIGHT THERE ON THE SINK WHY DON'T YOU SEE IT AND USE IT BRAIN
I've had "helpful" suggestions from so many people insisting that you just need to do something consistently for a few weeks and it magically becomes a habit, otherwise you're just not really trying. Which translates to "Why don't you try not having ADHD?" Yeah thanks a lot 😑
Obviously after preventing you from using the vaccum cleaner for two weeks, the one moment when your brain feels like using it is at night when you can't because people are sleeping
My desktop has a folder called “crap” where when my desktop starts to look cluttered I drag everything into a new folder then put that into the crap folder.
Going through the crap folder is like digging through sedimentary layers of dead shortcuts.lnk and .txt files to get a glimse of the past
I have something similar: a "garbage" folder in my downloads folder, and when I tire of the clutter I put all of it, including "garbage", into a new "garbage" folder. It's garbage all the way down.
I have a "Unsorted-NEW" and "Unsorted-OLD". When everything is too cluttered I rename "Unsorted-NEW" to "Unsorted-Number" and move it to "Unsorted-OLD" along with the previous iterations. Then I make a new "Unsorted-NEW" and put the clutter in it. Which I'm totally going to sort and not just leave there and forget about it until everything's too cluttered again...
...
... ... ... that actually made more sense before I tried to explain 😓
Yes, becoming a zombie for a while then getting bored and just indulging my brain's urge to hyperfocusing on the most pointless things. It's very happy after wasting my evening figuring out how telnet works. There's always a new pointless thing to hyperfocus on, no time for depression. Not much time for anything productive either, but hey, can't have everything 😅
“To facilitate this vetting, all applicants for F, M and J non-immigrant visas will be asked to adjust the privacy settings on all their social media profiles to ‘public’”, the official said. “The enhanced social media vetting will ensure we are properly screening every single person attempting to visit our country.”
Hi, I've a question, that is not a bug report... I think It could be good to have the github tab discussions open for such thing... or do you use another space for that ? Lemmy community or somethi...
I'm not sure why you wouldn't want the ASCII-Draw flatpak, but that's not the only way to get it: - there's a Snap - it can be installed from source - there's also an AUR package
But maybe you're not on Arch, don't like Snaps (can't blame anyone for that) and don't want to install from source (same)? What type of package are you looking for? Only native package? For which distro?

Very resonable (imo) response from Gargron (lead developer of Mastodon):
I’ve forwarded your question to our legal help and will provide an answer as soon as they give it to me. What you must understand is that our lawyers don’t have experience with federated platforms, and we don’t have experience with law, so we meet somewhere in the middle. Meta presumably has an in-house legal team that can really embed themselves in the problem area; our lawyers are external and pro-bono and rely on us to correctly explain the requirements and community feedback. The draft has been around for something like a year and none of the community members pointed out this issue until now. I’ll add one thing:
"My assumption, {.. shortened for brevity ..} is that when you post content it gets mirrored elsewhere, and this continues until a deletion notice is federated. So I'd assume if an instance somewhere mirrors my content they can't get in trouble for it, and I'd also assume that if there is a deletion or maybe a block and a reasonable interpretation of the protocol would say that the content should be removed, I could send them a takedown and at that point they'd have to honor it."
The goal of the terms is to make assumptions like this explicit, because assumptions are risky both sides. Just because luckily there were no frivolous lawsuits around this so far doesn’t mean there isn’t a risk of one.
Cory has had a much more calm response on a fediverse post, offering to reach out to the EFF's lawyers for assistance in drafting a better ToS for Mastodon, and other experienced lawyers have offered help also. Amongst the usual negativity from some users.
I'll be keeping my eye on the outcome but so far it looks positive.
Regular call to fzf, but output the index number of the selected entry, instead the text itself. It's a pretty niche use case, but there was a few times in the past when I needed it. You can use options for fzf just normally too.
I always forget how to do this manually, so I made this simple function for Bash. Just copy this like an alias into your .bashrc and use it like any other command in a pipe.
Improving access, flexibility, and CI integration for development boards, making it easier for developers to work with embedded hardware, no matter where they are.
I've been meaning to switch my pc to linux for a while but have only recently gotten enough time to switch. Is there anything that I would need a dualboot for? I was previously concerned with VR, specifically using a quest wirelessly. I heard about a year ago that it is possible but not the best. Has it improved since then?
And is there anything else I would still need a windows machine for? I don't know specifically what doesn't work and I don't mind using FOSS alternatives.
I was running a raspberry pi with raspian on it as a homelab for a few years (until the SD card died 🙁 I still need to fix that) so I am not completely unfamiliar with linux and the terminal and am willing to use it to make programs work as long as they work as well as they would on windows.
(I've decided on swapping to mint if that matters)
Every other time I hear someone mentioning dual booting between Windows and Linux, it's where M$ pushed out some update that borked the dual booting.
Personally, I'd recommend running Windows in a virtual machine instead, or Linux in a virtual machine, your choice whichever OS you want to run as the main host OS..
::: spoiler Alt At the top is a screenshot from Wikimedia Commons showing an image that was updated to a larger size with the comment saying "Improved image". Below it is the goose chasing meme with the goose twice asking "Where did the pixels come from?". :::
The increased "detail" is entirely made up, based off whatever the AI model considers likely to be there based off similar images. AI isn't somehow magically finding pixels that don't exist, it's effectively just guessing them.
I swear, were none of you people around for the LSD dogslugs of early image generation/style matching? Or the slightly newer "this person is not real" portrait generators that would merge hair and glasses, and often give multiple sets of eyes when glasses were at odd angles? This is effectively that with considerably more training data thrown at it.
It's all made up. The AI isn't taking another picture of the object with a higher resolution camera. It's spreading out the existing pixels and doing a best guess to fill in the blanks. Maybe that's fine for a family portait or something (I don't agree, but you do you), but that's definitively not OK for any sort of actual reference material.
Hi! I'm trying out Nix and I'm trying to set up and organize everything. Usually I put all my configs in a directory which is also a git repo and synced to my NAS, using the same subfolders they'd be in, and use GNU Stow to symlink the top-level folders (/dotfiles/home/ to /home/username/, /dotfiles/etc to /etc and /dotfiles/usr to /usr) and let it do its thing. Would it cause problems to also do that for configuration.nix?
On Arch I already had a /dotfiles/etc symlinked to /etc for my custom keyboard layouts, which worked fine... until the update which moved the location of the GUI keyboard layouts. It prevented the update so I undid the symlinks, updated, and put them again to the new location... but somehow it broke everything except the tty and no Wayland compositor I tried would work anymore (and there went my record of having never broken Arch since the first install over a year ago 😅 )
So I'm kinda wary of doing it on an even more critical file... but also I'm very lazy and having everything in a single repo is very convenient... How do you do it?
Yes that's what I'm using, it's really a great program! But I was wondering if configuration.nix being a symlink would cause problems or if it was fine
Edit: Ah someone else already replied that it was fine 🙂
Lol ok sounds like you are suggesting the rich people on my side are actually just friends with the rich people on the side of our sworn enemies!!!!
Trust me as not a rich person, I know my rich people, they would never do that! Only the other side's rich people would and then only because secretly the whole lot of those savages, poors and all want it to even if they claim they don't and the rich are just being the heros in that situation.
By legal standards, it's my understanding that any unlawful release from custody is a "jail break" regardless of the conditions of incarceration. Unjust detainment is a kind of legal threshold intended to assign a determination of legality to any scenario where anyone is taken into custody by state officials or law enforcement, not someone's opinion of whether or not it's fair.
Wow kneejerk pseudo-science enshrined into law because one person out of 10,000,000 used a gun to kill someone. Do you think if he had used a car instead you'd see a similar response? why or why not?
It’s wild how much of a slam dunk 2A Evangelists think the car argument is.
Also, cars are dangerous AF. Tens of thousands of people die a year because of them. Hence why we have licenses and maintenance rules and an unbelievably extensive road system with clear signals and lights.

And despite all these rules, the number of car deaths is much greater then any other cause of death. It's not a lack of rules that are the problem with cars (nor guns).
