@ecn I saw that after posting, and giggled.

Overheard today someone referring to the cybertruck as an Elon P76 and it just tickled my slightly obscure Australian motoring history gland.

@otte_homan Yeah, by all accounts the P76 was a really good start, it just looked kinda weird to .au eyes.

@darryl_ramm Tesla claims 56 cubic ft in the back of the cybertruck, and the P76 wasn't that far behind considering it was a sedan, at 36.

Well, by and by, way after many years have gone
And all the war freaks die off, leavin’ us alone
We’ll raise our children in the peaceful way we can
It’s up to you and me, brother, to try and try again
So hear us now
We ain’t wastin’ time no more
‘Cause time rolls by
Like hurricanes runnin’ after the subway train

@Cdespinosa I don't think I will ever not be thankful you introduced me to the allman brothers.

@SirTapTap Yeah there's a bit of that vibe.

@jimmylittle @SirTapTap it is! And it’s a thing that amazes me regularly about this iPhone in my hand right now compared to what we needed in the 90s to even approach that. Apple have seemed so good at getting that across well, and it’s just so odd to me how strangely hamfisted in symbology the crush ad came out.

ADHD meds end of week 2 note.

My whole sense of time is different.

I don't come home from work, do a few amusing things then oh shit it's midnight, time to sleep. It's fit in a whole evening of visiting family, bun time, reading, catching up with folk online, and it's only 10:20pm and it feels like a normal whole weekend's already fit in. Free time used to fly by, now it's savoured fully.

Also medicaiton still way variable and peaky, but may change Monday.

@domi Gods, the invisible executive function boost is weird. It's like some things that I always intended just happen automatically. I haven't used the kitchen for a week now without tidying as I go without thinking.

Feels like cheatcodes!

@JennyFluff Aye, I'm still on my first test doses of a non slow release atm. Next appointment is monday for an adjustment followup.

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@domi @noelle Goodness, yeah, there are some strange multiplier effects going on - like being just a little bit down in sleep on dex is REALLY hard. Feels like I've pulled two allnighters in row if I missed just a couple hours the night before.

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@noelle @domi Oh! Is there a link with tomatoes too, or just citric acid especially? I had a thought that the two times the morning dose didn't really seem to kick in much were ones I had a big old mass of tomato for breakfast. Not enough for more than a "huh, I wonder..." but if others had experience....

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@flyingsaceur @domi That might be part of my really good results, in a way.

I had an epiphany moment in 2009, an Eckhart Tolle moment, where everything suddenly changed. More than a decade of anxiety/depression just washed away. It's one of those life-changing moments, but I think was also a really good prep for these last couple of weeks.

Allowing the medication a great bedrock to start with.

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@websterleone Excellent! And yes. That's the absurd bit (apart from all the other absurd bits, but perhaps that especially)

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@Zyfdnug It's only folk who did similar that got me to take it seriously!

Near everything else I'd read was written from the point of view of non-ADHD folk talking about their experiences of watching kids or relatives changing and not being the same person after.

Lettuce is such a weird looking cat, so my sister and I were trying to figure out what exactly makes her look so odd.

It's definitely something with her eyes, but also her ears point straight up too much.

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@MLE_online My first thought was the flattened top to her eyes, like grumpy cat had in spades.

Just enough to make Lettuce look more slightly skeptical cat than grumpy

Macintosh Performa 6400.

NanoRaptor,
@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social avatar

@freehours9 @garthbeagle @likesoldmacs The Q605 (no real difference to a 476) is my fave practical mac, and my 6400 - later a 6500 board in it, then the same parts in a black 5500 - acted as my home linux server for many years. Both were very good little Macs.

Never had a 6400 or 6500 where the subwoofer did anything but mumble though!

@garthbeagle @freehours9 @likesoldmacs Ha - one of my MDDs is full-volume boot chime all the time. I have to hold my finger on the speaker to dampen it lest it wake the neighbours.
