No, but life style changes may reveal you had ADHD all along and had just been lucky enough to be unaffected by it.
- Comment on Someday pornhub will be replaced by some AI generative porn site and people will talk about it in casual conversation only Ill have no idea because I've yet to let the intrusive thoughts win. 2 days ago:
It wasn’t yet?

And modern medicine also slows it down further.
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 week ago:
And it’s specific to slack? Or do you have the same issue when sharing the screen on anything else?
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 week ago:
Try an atomic distro too, if you haven’t yet. It’s a completely different experience from regular Linux - specially the ones that take care of everything for you like UBlue’s.
- Comment on I never understood what it was people did on Twitter. I understand it even less now that it is X. 2 weeks ago:
It’s quite like reddit, but without threads or subs: just a nearly infinite list of comments made on anything. You only get to see what a comment (tweet) is about when there’s a tag on them or when they are a response to another tweet.
Twitter’s UX was generally better suited for some stuff like live events where you may want to see other people’s comments but only in real time - a 3 minute old tweet in this context is just useless data.
- Comment on Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games 2 weeks ago:
I don’t get your point. You could ask the same questions about any other hardware, including Playstation and specially Xbox.

- Comment on What are your favorite games from a worldbuilding standpoint? 3 weeks ago:
I want to answer Xenogears because of all of its story and storytelling, but the worldbuilding itself is kinda standard, if not for the scope of it. You do end up learning about pretty much everything there is to learn - the world and its history, the characters and what moves them, the politics, the conflicts, the geography, the physics, the religions, the supernatural, the origins of mankind - not to mention a full class on philosophy. And then whatever question you still have left, there’s a book about it in addition to the game.
And you start with a classic amnesiac character in a small village.
- Comment on If video games actually determined our real world behavior, we wouldn't be violent we would be obsessed with powerwashing and all have CDLs. 3 weeks ago:
Imagine a dad making that argument these days and then they look at their kid’s steam library and all they play is “shower with your dad simulator”

My rule for considering it a sport is: anyone should be able to play it if they have everything needed. It’s impossible to be banned from a sport (banned from tournaments is not the same thing) - if you want to play, you play. If you want to make custom rules just for you and your friends, you make them and then play. Nobody can own the rights to a sport (again, not the same as that sport’s tournament). No company can ever stop others from making money with a specific sport.
If you have any kind of ball you can play soccer. If you have anything that can represent chess pieces, you can play chess. If you have a kart you can have a race…
So can videogames be considered sport? Perhaps some can, but anything that requires access to a specific company’s private servers is out of the question. I’m not even gonna argue that the game should be open source, but at the very least it should have a way for anyone to spin up their own server for it.

When you’re thinking 50%, you’re thinking about the content you actually see. But you likely don’t see more than 5% of reddit’s content - the stuff that goes on in all the smaller subreddits.
15% of the whole site is an absurdly high number.
- Comment on If AI was all it was cracked up to be, it wouldn't be shoved in your face 24/7 4 weeks ago:
If I owned a gold mine filled with easily accessible actual gold veins, I would not spend my days telling others about it and selling them shovels.

Thought the point of my comment would be better made without mentioning it by name, but it’s Bluefin.
- Comment on YouTube is taking down videos on performing nonstandard Windows 11 installs 4 weeks ago:
I was like this until last year. Used Linux a lot for work but couldn’t make the jump on my personal computers because there was always some thing or another that was annoying. Then one day i made one more distro change and suddenly I was having the best experience I’ve ever had in any OS. Now I can only hope I can keep riding on this wave for a long time.
- Comment on Who was your first childhood videogame crush? 4 weeks ago:
It’s on Steam if you want to relive the experience.
Last time it was mentioned here on Lemmy I was surprised how many other people also thought they were the only one who played it.
- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 5 weeks ago:
Thanks! And yeah, if it can’t even handle stuff like this properly I don’t think Microsoft will have any luck getting people to use it.
- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 5 weeks ago:
Do you mind trying it with some random skyrim door puzzle or something like that? I imagine it’s closer to what they expect people would use it for, but I don’t imagine it handling any better.
The whole thing is specially useless if you consider that people are much less likely to try it on games that are old enough for the AI to have had data about it than on brand new games that they know nothing about.

Maybe I shouldn’t ask, but what are scalies?
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 5 weeks ago:
I’m Brazilian. For the first time ever, this month I started seeing ads from the US’ tourism department or something. I used to see ads from Brazilian traveling agencies that take people there, never ads directly from the US. I thought it was quite absurd to think anyone would be going there for leisure purposes any time soon, but turns out the idioms school a block from my house is taking people there every year and the 2026 group is apparently larger than usual.
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 5 weeks ago:
Even the folks who bring out a guitar in every gathering they participate?
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 5 weeks ago:
Is that because we exist within a nut?
Or something like that, I don’t know. I don’t remember anything from the “the universe in a nutshell” book.
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 5 weeks ago:
It was nurses for me. Not necessarily attracted them, but like a third of my matches on dating apps were nurses. And I remember one of them mentioning that it seemed like every other guy she matched with was in IT (at the time I thought it was simply because dating apps were still kinda new around here and IT people were more likely to be trying it)
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 5 weeks ago:
Windows Live Writer, obviously.
- Comment on ICEBlock Owner After Apple Removes App: ‘We Are Determined to Fight This’ 1 month ago:
Everything is about control. The internet was left open by accident for a while and they are working hard to “fix” it. They are just trying to be slightly less obvious about it than China was. All of the forced AI tools, required apps and stuff like that are just ways to move users away from the open web.
Once most users restrict their Internet usage to ONLY content provided by the large companies (for example, once people no longer click on any Google result), then Internet providers will start granting access to the content from large companies for free and charge a lot more for access to anything else.
In 10, maybe 20 years, we will be needing to tell our internet providers when we change jobs so that they may change which “custom” internet services we get to have access to specifically for work.
- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 1 month ago:
I had a girl ask if it was OK to bring a friend once, I said it was fine. She ended up coming alone anyway.
- Comment on Amazon is making it impossible to remove the DRM from Kindle Books 2 months ago:
Just got two kobos this month, for me and my wife. I had had one back in 2012 and wasn’t reading much in recent years, but she had owned a handful of kindles before (never any other eReader) and lost all her book collection after her credit card was cloned and amazon deleted all accounts that had ever used it “for safety”.
Her kobo arrived earlier and for a whole week she would come tell me all the amazing stuff she could do on it that she never thought possible. Incredible technological advancements like sending a file directly to it.
I was like “it’s OK honey, you’re out of that abusive relationship now”

Nah, 99% Mint is only for old computers. If you have a good pc the recommendations change a lot.
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 2 months ago:
AdSense could have been amazing if it was used to find good ads for the user instead of finding good users for the ad.
- Comment on Microsoft doesn't understand the Fediverse 2 months ago:
Funnily I have been fine with a lot of Microsoft software before, but VSCode was not one of them. Mostly because I’m very picky about something I’ll be using all day everyday and for that VSCode has too many issues for my taste.
