Does anyone else with ADHD have some days where your executive dysfunction is worse than normal, and you end up barely doing anything and feeling like crap? I’m having one of those days, and I’m hoping I’m not alone in experiencing this.
Been there this last friday, absolutely sucks and ruins my weekend with all the guilt and not being able to rest since now I have the urgent feel to do everything to make up for what I didn't do on friday.
I know we shouldn't being so hard on us but it's just so difficult sometimes.
Yeah, this grinds my gears. I use to comment my code when I'm working on my personal projects, then at the office I have to waste time trying to decipher my boss's code because he won't comment absolutely anything.
That plus the ridiculous deadlines means that I don't have time to comment my own code, fast forward several months later without working on a particular project and now I have to decipher his and my own code.
One day he actually had the nerve to say to me: 'Yeah, you should comment your code'. How I refrained of commiting murder that day I don't know.
With all the current discussion about the threat that Instagram Threads has on the Fediverse and that article about how Google Embrace Extend Extinguished XMPP, I was left very confused, since that was the first time I’ve heard that Gchat supported XMPP or what XMPP actually is, and I’ve had my personal Gmail since beta (no,...

DDG is great, I've been using it for a while now, but I recently learned that I can also send mails from my main account as a @duck.com address and now I'm in love.
The international system replaces one of the country's two traditional methods, where people are deemed to be a year old at birth - taking into account time spent in the womb.
Sorry if it's a silly question, but if a child is born on december 31 just a minute before the new year, could he be 2 before the mother gets to hold him then?

Yup, I get home between 17:30~18:00 but it's only when I'm already in bed at night when I feel that I can play for a little bit or mindlessly read social media without feeling guilty about not doing anything productive.
Sure, I can play or watch tv sometimes in the afternoon if I don't have any urgent chores to do but there's this constant inner voice that doesn't let me enjoy it.
It's an awful feeling when you're putting some extra effort on something that is hard for you and at the same time you know that, the moment you finish, you don't get to celebrate or share your joy with someone else because in the time you did that task some other person would have do that and three tasks more.
It's always that feeling of no matter how much I try it's never enough.
I already have Nova Premium (my preferred launcher) which is what people have recommending. Was thinking of getting Stardew Valley since it's only $5 but I did some research and apparently the mobile version is a bit out of date, idk.
I wanted to answer here: https://kbin.social/m/leagueoflinux/t/36538/Introducing-leagueoflinux-org-The-New-Home-for-Everything-Riot-Games-on But the post is displayed with zero comments while on kbin.social there are answers.
I had the same issue browsing a lemmy.world community from kbin.social, looks empty to me from kbin except for this message:
The magazine from the federated server may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.
So I checked the original instance and there were already some threads there, then I created a new thread from kbin and it worked, it appears on both kbin and lemmy, but from kbin I still can only see my own thread, not the rest.
Oh well, I guess it's a matter of time, @ernest is working really hard to fix everything and so far apart from a couple of things it has been a pretty smooth experience for me.
You are a life savior lol, I was looking for an alternative to Vanced since it recently stopped working for me and of course my first thought was to search for a solution on reddit, but since we are on the fediverse now I gave the search box here a go and bingo, here's the solution and it works wonderfully. Thank you!
For me its when someone tells me to bring them something. If i try to find something that i need, i will find it really quickly. If someone is asking me to find something for them in a room, it is like i become blind and even if its in front of me, it is really hard to find it.
For me is when I'm talking with someone and my mind starts to wander away, then I realize I have no clue what they just said. This is really problematic at work where I have to write down every single thing my boss says to me, otherwise sometimes I don't even know what task I have been assigned.
It's very frustrating with my wife too but at least she understands better what's going on with me.
For basic things like syntax that I can't remember it's actually pretty good, way more faster than google IMO.
When I ask for something a little more complicated it can go two ways:
Actually doing a good job and generating something that I can use (I often have to polish that code, but still, it's better than expected)
Doing whatever that I didn't ask for, so when I point out that's not what I meant and explain it further, it enters a bucle where it goes back to the two same solutions.
"You didn't like solution A? Here, there's solution B. Solution B is terrible? Here, there's A again."

This was such a pleasant surprise, I wasn't looking at the monitor when the presentation started but then I heard the first notes of Monkey Island's theme and that made me so happy!
For me flair is probably the most important.

Here, I'll start. When I was 8 years old, my parents went to a dinner party and plonked me down in front of the host's computer so I'd stay out of their way. The game they booted up to keep me occupied was Space Quest II. Little did they know what impact that would have on me...
Damn, that brings back memories, I had an Amiga 500 (in fact still got it, I don't think it works anymore though) and my first adventure game I think it was Loom, but it could have been Maniac Mansion too.
I still have the first Monkey Island on its original box, sadly it's missing a disk, only have 3 out of 4.
