I think the original tweet is saying this is their every day life bc of their adhd.

Being their every day state of existence and not having any control over it is the piece that is adhd specific I believe.

Time is the one thing we all suffer through equally.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a whale gamer with 100 ships or a normal person with 1 or 2.

Those 10 minutes pass the same for us all. And it’s that consequence upon death that gives real weight, meaning and purpose to your choices.

It’s what’s meant to keep you from going, “hurr durr guns go brrrr” and shooting everyone you see on sight like a neanderthal.

The only thing I don’t agree with is the current durations given the state of the game.

Often your ship explodes through no fault of your own. They should incrementally increase wait times as the game stabilizes more on my opinion.

But in a game where death is not permanent like real life time is one of the few things that weighs on us all the same.

And yes, ofc owning more ships b/c you’re wealthier than other players does give you an advantage over other players, doesn’t invalidate my point.

If anything that’s making it more realistic, and some day 200 years from now when they implement “Death of a Spaceman” there will be harsher penalties to death that you can’t whale your way out of, forcing you to prize your life and take action accordingly.

It’s not meant to appeal to everyone. Nothing is meant to appeal to everyone.

If you don’t like it, that’s fine, don’t play, no one is forcing you.

If you disagree with the game mechanics, that’s fine, don’t play. No one is forcing you.

If the devs need to do x, y, and z to appease you as an individual or you’re going to quit, that’s fine, don’t play. No one is forcing you.

NPM’s left-pad library has entered the chat

Is this a hot take? You’re absolutely correct lol.

In the summer 78F during the day but I spend most of that time in the basement because that’s where my office is and 68F at night to sleep.

During the winter 68F all day err’ day

I get these vibes when WASM introduced C# to the frontend via Blazor.

Feels wrong. Feels like it shouldn’t be possible.

But binaries on the frontend are so. cot. dayum. fast

Blazor has been my favourite framework to do my side projects in for the past couple years now.

Wake up between 7am and 9am.

Coffee within 20 minutes of waking up.

Second cup of coffee between 10 and 11:30 but never after 11:30 for some reason

“Breakfast” sometime between 10:30am and 12pm. (Never after 12 or I’ve missed the window and have to live with my life choices)

Latte at 2. Always 2. Without fail. Idk why, but always 2. Never before 2, rarely… rarely after 2 (but not by much) always almost exactly 2.

“Snack lunch” between 1 and 3. Whenever “the hunger” strikes. Never a full meal, always enough to be “okay” but not full. Like 200 calories or less

Dinner sometime between 6 and 7 cause of “the hunger”

Cookies sometime between 8 and 10pm.

Sleep between 12am and 2am

The whole thing when I type it out seems chaotic and not at all consistent but it’s dedicatedly been my life for years at this point and feels exceptionally routine an consistent; and I get very stressed if/when I deviate from this schedule in any major way

This is the one I came to post about. The fact there’s a library for this is so stupid to me.

I feel like it demonstrates how npm and modules have probably to some degree gotten out of hand.

Literally had several doctors throughout growing up tell my dad my brain is fucked and doesn’t work like he wants it to cause heckin ADHD or whatever.

Everytime my dad was sure I was full of shit and, “just not trying hard enough to remember things or do things, etc”

Some people just aren’t maleable enough to adapt their world view when presented with information that contradicts their preconceived assumptions and biases.

Those AM sidepods give me Ferrari vibes from before they went all boxy this year.

Really liked the look of the Ferrari before their sidepod change looking forward to seeing the AM car with this upgrade

I tried transforming the word Lemmy in the same way as demonyms for countries ending in Y just to see how it’d shake out.

Anything calling to anyone? 😅

Germany -> Germans -> Lemmans

Para/Uruguay -> Para/Uruguayans -> Lemmyans

Muscovy -> Muscovites -> Lemmites

Hungary -> Hungarians -> Lemmians

Norway -> Norwegians -> Lemmegians?

Turkey -> Turks? -> Lemms?

Plex and a web app I wrote for a Twitch community I moderate.

Plex is on a server in the Netherlands and the web app is just AWS. I would’ve hosted on some spare hardware but my internet is notoriously trash and I didn’t want to risk it going down while people are playing in the app.

Plex I might move onto a NAS at some point but I’m just too lazy lol.

Friend of mine who has had a kid explained this to me for anyone else who’s kidless like myself.

I guess the development rate of kids is sorta all over the place and various facets of development are benchmarked at certain months not years.

So parents speaking to other parents this probably makes total sense and they know developmentally where the kid is based on months.

For us non-parents, well, thank God our phones got calculators eh?

Where did you get that mouse mat?? I have a mighty need!
