  • Any non-tech-background self-hosters?

  • It was self-fulfilling for me. I started self-hosting and messing with networking before I went into IT. I thought I’d be in a very different field until ~10 years ago.

  • As a general rule, I tend to focus on a title or a series of {books,tv,movies,games,musician,etc}, consume it to death over the course of a handful of weeks/months, then lose interest and never touch it ever again.

    I had a big Soulslike phase in the middle of the pandemic. Before that it was Rocket League. I’ve gamed very little these last months in between a million consecutive life events, but the little time I had to play was almost exclusively on Monster Hunter (I just reached Iceborne in MHW).

    The one game I had a legitimately problematic relationship with was Counter Strike, as a teen and young adult. Nowadays, I still have the general game sense but the reflexes and skills are long gone, and I don’t have the time to dedicate to getting to a level I’d feel good at.

  • Malicious Plugin in Pidgin (Chat Application)

    Jump

  • The newest Teams app (and I think newest Outlook amongst others) is using system/Edge provided WebViews rather than Electron, which I guess takes care of the “each app gets its own Chrome instance” part of the Electron bloat. It’s so far running better than old Teams for me. On my old work laptop, the fans spun up the second the old Teams client launched lol

  • The single most thing that improved your ADHD?

    Jump

  • Yeah… I’m a total mess without, almost as dramatic a difference as the ADHD meds, but it’s just insane how much.

  • Je suis en Montérégie, c’est très plat dans mon coin, donc non, heureusement. Mais l’eau s’est accumulée un peu partout dans le coin pareil, à des endroits où j’en avais jamais vu…

  • Hah, that’s Cipralex for me. Works wonders for the anxiety for me, but it really kills sex drive.

  • Vyvanse takes the cake for me, easy. But which brain meds work for you is heavily dependent on your particular brain chemistry.

    Otherwise, obsessive usage of alarms and reminders is the best crutch I’ve found to remain somewhat productive.

  • Ma langue maternelle est le français. Je suis né et vis au Québec, d’une famille canadienne française assez typique. Mes habiletés d’écriture sont plutôt fortes à en croire mes notes à l’école, mais je les pratique très peu. Je ne le parle pas aussi bien que je l’écris…

    Otherwise I’m pretty proficient in English. I’d say I’m more or less bilingual at this point. I cannot seem to enjoy fiction books nearly as much in the language though. I can’t really appreciate the differences in style well enough, I think.

  • “à l’école”, but otherwise flawless. You don’t see complex sentences with properly conjugated verbs from a lot of second language speakers, so I have a feeling your French is indeed pretty good.

  • The F stands for “free” as in “freedom”, not “free beer”.

  • Tech lead here, but same idea. The chaos and variety is exactly what I love about my job too.

  • Never doing video calls, I suppose?

  • Whatever I'm doing when the meds kick in is what I will stay doing

    Jump

  • I usually describe the effects of the escitalopram I take as not really directly making me “feel better”, but mellowing out the uncontrollable emotional spikes enough that I can actually work on anxiety management skills. So far Vyvanse has worked for me in similar ways, in that I can actually focus on things now, but I’m also about 30 years late at developing proper task management skills.

  • They definitely update the photos, just faster in some areas than others, visibly.

    If I rarely (and I mean rarely) ever drink energy drinks, will drinking one every once in awhile have bad health effects?

    Jump

  • The dose makes the poison. Hell, some literal hard drugs wouldn’t have lasting effects on you if you only took them once in a while.
