I like a certain level of quality when it comes to audio.
When I’m making music, I use in ear monitors from shure with a flat response because it would throw off my mixes otherwise. Same with my presonus speakers. Flat response.
But for causally watching content, its fine for me to use some bookshelf speakers or even a bluetooth speaker. Its not super important for watching content for me as long as its not total trash.
Meds do help in my case. My issues was not procrastination so much as id procrastinate and then forget about it.
Meds help me remember to do things and stay more organized but they don’t make it super easy, just easier. I think the biggest thing is they make me feel awake. Before meds, i always felt like i was tired. Probably because my brain was always in overdrive.
Feeling awake helps motivate me to get stuff done.
I’m using amphetamine salts or generic adderall
My advice is start slow and dont hurt yourself in the name of fitness. Its better to take a day off if your legs really hurt so that your body has time to heal rather than “work through the pain”.
And eat enough to fuel the new cardio. Doesnt do you much good if you arent giving your body enough to work with. If your trying to lose weight, slight calorie deficit of about 200 calories is typically recommended.
And listen to some music that pumps you up! Always made me love running. Good luck! You got this :)
I’m def a windows hater but i dont fault people for using it. Most folks arent gonna know how to install a diffrent os or even want to if what they have already works.
Use what you like and what works.
Lol ive had that kind of experience as well. I got lucky and first med i tried was really effective. I’m now able to just stop thinking for a while. All the voices are quiet and no music plays.
I just got diagnosed last year and ive had ADHD all my life without knowing it so super weird to just have a quiet head. I get what you mean, its such a drastic change, but a good one.
Before i was got on meds, i constantly had music playing in my head along with all the other thoughts that were trying to be heard.
I personally have had the best luck finding jobs on indeed. Its a popular job board for a reason but that doesnt mean that there arent a ton of postings from companies that arent actually looking for employees. Its super shitty of them but work with what ya got.
I avoid any job posting that has weird requirements like they want you to take a test or want you to add your resume through thier website instead. I dont reccomend wasting your time with that unless the job posting looks really worth it. Rarely they are. I get the most rejections from those.
What i recommend most is trying to get a job in the same field or company that a friend works at. Much easier to get hired if someone can vouch for you. Thats how i got my current job. Before that, i was stuck in security and constantly job hunting with no return on investment.
It will effect your health but having most “bad” foods in normal amounts every once in a while won’t really hurt you. Any effect would be minimal at worst so long as you dont have preexisting health conditions. If you already have high blood pressure or a heart condition, energy drinks are probably not a good idea.
Yea you’re not wrong. Kinda fed up with most smartphone manufacturers these days. Its all so restrictive. And to your point that Google is one of the only manufacturers that allows the bootloader to be relocked, thats for now. No telling what will happen in the future which is another part of my issue.
At one point i was considering making a small pc out of a raspberry pi or something to replace my phone just cause i dont like the way phone manufacturing in general is going lol.
Kinda silly but i still think about it.
Thats pretty cool! My only gripe is I dont really wanna buy a pixel phone and I think there are unofficial roms for other android devices but idk if its worth the hassle.
I dont use Graphene OS but my understanding was that it allows the user to sandbox Google play apps: https://grapheneos.org/usage#sandboxed-google-play
So this gives Google play less access than it normally would. I think thats probably the biggest draw of it other than security updates for longer periods of time for older hardware i imagine.
Again, I’m not a user of it so i cant say for sure but I’ve beem interested in trying it out as it seems up my alley as I’m getting more pivacy conscious as the years go by.
I second this.
I started learning Google app script for work and while its not exactly traditional programming like most folks would do, i can now look at javascript and have a basic understanding of whats going on.
I learned a ot by doing. And with the help of ai, i was able to learn concepts, syntax, the best way to do this or that at least to a degree.
Just trying to make something is the best way. Make a tool to make your life easier. Like if you have a repetitive task that you dont want to do each time, make a script that does it for you.
No fucking way
This is the second time today ive looked something up and found it to be true.
Now thats something I’d slap on my resume. Hope you get a bonus or something for saving your company money cause it’d be well deserved.
Oh yea, I’ve used this before and still do. But this only works to a point and for me, being medicated was my best option.
My first session with my pysch, she said it sounds like youre already doing everything i would normally recommend before prescribing medication so i think we should try meds.
Not that these kinds of things dont help, just sometimes needs to be paired with meds as well.
Executive dysfunction is probably the worst part of having ADHD. That and having issues regulating emotions.
I can’t just clean, theres so much to clean that cleaning is just an insurmountable task on top of all the other things that i have to do first to even BEGIN cleaning.
Lol prompts are important for sure. Me and my boss often talk about what you can do with chatgpt when we use it at work amd what kind of prompts we use.
Most models that I’ve played with are only about as good as what you put into it. If you ask it the right questions in the right way, you can get pretty good results.
GPT3.5 has worked well for me. I’ve also run AI on my pc locally using Ollama and lots of different models. Most do well with simple questions or requests.
Llama 3 instruct is what I’ve liked the most so far.
From my understanding, a lot of the products on amazon are resellers that buy stuff from alibaba and then resell it at a markup so it would not surprise me if that was the case.
They all looked the same when i was last on there searching for one.
Older thinkpads would come to mind, usually a good option. Generally affordable, repairable, and can be good for Linux.
