- Comment on Friends are a bloatware. 2 weeks ago:
I was able to move roughly ~80 percent of my friend group to Signal. At a certain point, I let everyone know what I was doing and how to find me. Once people realized I ditched every other platform and was fully committed, they joined.
Different people have different tolerances, but if you’re consistent, downloading an app isn’t such a big ask.

It helps that it’s run by a nonprofit. No investors, no shareholders, no inevitable IPO.

Sweet! Single-file looks like a decent workaround for those links that get locked behind captcha when they’re being saved. Always frustrates me when I go to review a link and it turns out it only saved a cloudflare redirect lol

Damn, good thing the internet came along. Crazt how no crimes were ever solved before then, and detectives just sat around hoping people would turn themselves in

Facts right here. Learn how to let people have their own space. Sometimes a thing isn’t meant for you, and that’s okay.

- Comment on Half a million Spotify users are unknowingly grooving to an AI-generated band 2 months ago:
I began noticing this on my discover weekly, some particularily bad AI slop was showing up (I listen to a lot of ambient) and that alerted me to audit the rest of my playlists.
Look for artists that:
-
release an absurd amount of music per time period
-
have only released music post-2023
-
use obviously AI generated album art
-
have no photo of the real artist or description
Found about a dozen offenders.

This sounds like a sleeping disorder, imo.
And no, ADHD medications do not make you immune to brain fog. In some situations they can make it worse, especially when they wear off.

I appreciate where you’re coming from, but understand this is a very personal issue for me. I’ve been dealing with it for the majority of my life.
I’m not going to challenge the specific merits of food delivery. But everyone deals with their disorder in their own way. For example, I solve this issue by simply living next to a grocery store in a walkable area. It’s something I’ve worked towards over time.
What infuriates me is someone trying to code something as “ADHD-adjacent” - and in this case, pass it off as though exploitative gig service delivery apps are some kind of accessibility measure. We are particularly susceptible to the weapons of the information age, which has engineered easy dopamine hits within the reach of our fingers at all times. They are NOT there to make our lives better. They are there to exploit, profit, and manipulate.

Believe me, I’m very familiar with the concept. I simply despise the idea of someone categorizing food delivery apps as an ADHD-specific service.

Never used a delivery app in my life. This person is just using ADHD as an umbrella term for “impulsive decisions”, which is an inherently shitty thing to do.

Literally nothing.
Shitty people will associate ANY impulsive decision with ADHD because they get all their mental health information from short-form content.
