The only answer I need from an AI is 42.

Damn so its gonna get even faster? My Windows install must have been more borked than I thought bc I already get performance parity at minimum. Guess I should have kept up with reformatting annually instead of biennially.

This is also called anxiety (which often goes hand in hand with ADHD to be fair)

Maybe it’s system to system, or something with the older nvidia drivers, but I’ve specifically noticed the improved performance in Expedition 33 and Jedi: Fallen Order which I think are both DX11/12?

“Well, don’t want to sound like a dick or nothin’, but, ah… it says on your chart that you’re fucked up.”

That’s because he isn’t acting. Somewhere along the line he stopped being the actor known as Ryan Reynolds and just became the character Ryan Reynolds.

Just switch to CachyOS and so far I’ve noticed improved performance if anything (on a 3080 10gb). The latency difference between it and Windows is just unreal.

Some plants make some bitter compounds when they go to seed so I would guess not.

In America I think you also either literally or effectively (to compete) have to own some banks as well.

You may have better friends than me. I’ve had people say that it’s “disrespectful” because I must be focusing more on what they said vs what they’re now saying or something stupid IDK.

I have to turn subtitles off in games or else I will get too frustrated by the voice acting and do exactly that. I had to force myself to listen to the wonderful VA work in Baldur’s Gate 3.

If someone needs to be overly organized I would be more likely to assume they are just on the ASD now, but I definitely remember people joking about OCD like you’re saying. I have AuDHD (high functioning autism and ADHD) but that wasn’t in the DSM until like 2014, so as a kid I just got the ADHD diagnosis. Now it makes so much more sense why I feel like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde sometimes. My autistic traits desire organization and cleanliness but my ADHD is good at “filtering” the mess out until it gets REALLY bad. Then I go into a cleaning frenzy ala old lady Sophie trying to clean Howl’s castle. Sadly I don’t have the grit of Sophie so I end up getting burnt out and being unable to clean anything for two months.

You might have gotten in before they added the H lol. My diagnosis in the early 90s was called just ADD. They hadn’t added the “hyperactive” part yet. The name does it a disservice though because it isn’t an attention deficit, it is in fact the exact opposite. I have too much attention - I just can’t always pick where that attention goes.

https://add.org/adhd-test/ do yourself a favor and take this. Or you could ask your primary care provider to refer you to see a therapist or a psychologist and ask them to administer an ADHD screener (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1)). With any luck that will be enough to get you a referral to a psychiatrist who can actually prescribe medication. I was diagnosed as a child and re-diagnosed a year ago and my doctor said the fact that I responded well to medication was enough confirmation for her. Good luck!

edit If you ask doctor google, you could also be pregnant so maybe get that checked out as well! (/s)

Manjaro was my first Arch distro and I enjoyed it until I found out about the issues with packages always being out of date. Switched over to EndeavourOS and have been loving it so far. It’s been “just working” for like two years now and even my 70 year old parents don’t notice a difference from Windoze when they borrow my laptop. In fact my dad is using it to do some Quicken work today (which was an adventure to get working. WineHQ community was super helpful though)

If they lost to a bunch of emus it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that they’re scared of the russians!

Damn, I didn’t have “Austria (potentially) breaks 70 years of neutrality” on my World War III bingo card.

I WAS going to follow-up my “it’s always sunny in philadelphia” quote but I got completely distracted by TWENTY-EIGHT CENT EGGS. I can literally buy eggs from the source (there’s a farm nearby that “donates” a portion of their income directly to the chickens and puts it into quality of life upgrades for them) and it still costs me $4.50-5.00 a dozen depending on weight.

can i offer trade you a nice egg in this trying time?

The article mischaracterized the petition. If you read the change.org petition it’s about protesting Visa, Mastercard, and moral advocacy groups. The petition even goes as far as to point out the hypocrisy of the decision.

These same payment processors allowed platforms like OnlyFans to operate with minimal oversight, despite multiple credible reports and lawsuits alleging the presence of real sexual abuse content involving real-life minors. That is a criminal failure of responsibility. Yet, when it comes to entirely fictional depictions, these same companies act swiftly — shutting down creators, restricting access, and acting as global censors.

I wish I had a technical solution but I really don’t. As much as I can’t stand cryptocurrency in the way that it’s being implemented, this is the kind of problem blockchain technology could potentially eliminate. I think the bigger problem is social - people trust credit card companies because of things like charge backs and fraud protection. Shopping in a store is one thing but when you’re buying from a faceless digital store front people seem to want a third-party to secure things and protect their money.
