I get that you're trying to be uplifting and motivating and whatnot but executive distinction making it quite literally impossible to motivate myself to get up and take those first few steps is the problem here.

That's nice and you're very lucky. My PCP told me to schedule an appt with their drugs and mental health department (3 month minimum wait) and that he'd not renew the prescription I'd come to him with.

Then my next Dr was telehealth and kept warning me I needed to see her in person, but never had an appointment open.

Then my next Dr was 45 minutes late to every appointment.

Then my next Dr tried to get me to do IT troubleshooting on my end when he hadn't joined the fucking Zoom call.

Many of us also lived through the era where any 13 year old could steal Mommy's credit card and rent a botnet for that ezpz

My MC server a decade ago was tiny and it still happened every few months when we banned some butthurt kid

gamermanh , to RPGMemes in They're just fun to browse through, ok?

I can't afford that many paper books, man, sorry

Do I have every book for DND pirated as a PDF so that I can reference them, though? maybe

Do I have a digital backup of the Cyberpunk books? totally

Do I have an esoteric collection of random magic items and mobs I've seen as I browse over the last 15 years? oh fuck actually did I accidentally delete this folder I literally just realized as I typed this oh no

gamermanh , to memes in "Soundblaster" was such an 80s/90s name for a computer part.
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Until I upgraded to Linux Mint recently I actually DID use a Soundblaster card (modern one from 2018) to drive my super nice headphones and speakers

Too bad mint weirdly hated it despite recognizing it, but the new speakers have a fine DAC so....

@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Eventually either the IDF will find all of the hostages or Hamas will release them. Then it will end.

Lol, good one.

gamermanh , to ADHD in Having to go to a meeting really messes with your flow for the whole day, doesn't it?

Diminishing Returns is the concept on a broader scale here

Ie: the more you add the less you get from adding, to the point of it becoming a complete negative

I've got a server I'm mass downloading anything I or my wife can think of and quite a few obscure movies and shows aren't on the major sites in any form that has enough seeders to actually finish

So, Usenet it is, at least until I'm mostly done.

If I was huntig for it all by hand I'd probably not bother but I'm using the Arr stack for automation so

gamermanh , to Ask Lemmy in Lemons(?) of Lemmy, what is something that feels so obvious to you that you just get lowkey pissed at the world for not knowing?
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Vice: bad habit, especially used as a form of escapism

Not what it means. You'd also have to prove it's a
bad habit even if it were the meaning

my vice is alcohol

Also not a vice unless you're a weird ass prude

You don’t need to be defensive about it

Pointing out your holier-thsn-thou attitude is stupid because you're straight-upwrong about something isn't being defensive.

You don't like it, that doesn't mean it's immoral to do it

@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

smoking it stinks up the whole block/park. You need to get a handle on that.

Sploofs and vapes

it’s a vice

Oh, you're one of those. No, it's not.

Vice: immoral or wicked behavior

All the salty downvoters mad because they personally find somethig immoral when it's not. Stay mad

It's only normal if you're regularly doing iffy things like messing with drives or changing OS shit via terminal without thinking about what you're doing, Ubuntu is a pretty stable system

You should definitely be using TimeShift, it comes pre installed on Mint (which is a derivative of Ubuntu) so it should work or already be on your system

5 years in

Batteries last far longer than that, to the point where every warranty I've seen is 10 years minimum

gamermanh , to Technology in Why Americans aren’t buying more EVs
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Range anxiety is still the biggest issue for EV adoption

Only because people keep making false claims like:

the supercharger network is the only practical option right now

down voted by people who think any Kraft ceese is real cheese?

It is, you're just using the FDAs god-awful definition from over 100 years ago that only cheese made in the specific traditional way is "cheese"

Kraft singles are American cheese: typically a cheddar and Colby jack mix with 2 specific chemicals added to allow water to stay in the mixture better. Boil them together, spread thinly and let harden.

Kraft singles have more chemicals and a more complex process so they can get as thin as they do, but they're cheese by any normal person's definition.

here's a great video by NileBlue on the subject
