I have some hexbear communities turned off in my feed, but I have subscribed to some also. Lemmy is growing but it’s still a small community. Sometimes, I want to see posts on a niche topic and I’ll take what I can get.

Thanks for posting. I was literally l looking for updates on this recently and couldn’t find anything. I was worried that it might have been forgotten about

What is considered high? I have an above average intelligence, but I also have ADHD.

I have a fantastic memory, but I can’t always choose what I remember. I’m great at facts and trivia but I can’t remember things that are actually important in my life.

I didn’t have to study in school. I could glance over the material minutes before a test and pass without trying. Then, I got to college and I didn’t know how to study as I’d never done that before. I failed out.

Futurama!

On your homelab set up. I know that could mean a lot of things but whatever you want it to mean is cool. Maybe it doesn’t apply to what I want to do but that’s okay!

I want to find out what’s possible and what options are out there!

I was really trying to rack my brain for this question but, you helped me.

Mine is a pet too. A dog. I have a Dalmatian and there was one up for adoption at a local shelter.

I went to meet him, and the shelter sort of pushed him into me right then. It was more expensive than it should have been also.

In the end, I’m glad I brought him home. My first dog loves to wrestle with him and the shelter ended up getting shut down for violations with the state. I’m so happy he got a good home with me and didn’t get sent to who knows where when the shelter closed.

You won’t regret it!

Futurama. I’ve seen it thousands of times. That’s not an exaggeration.

Probably not what you had in mind but West Side Story. I didn’t care about musicals or romance. My dad made me watch it. He was a tough guy who liked kung fu movies and football. But he wasn’t afraid to be soft either. He liked musicals as much as he liked Bruce Lee. Glad we watched it together though. I appreciate that stuff now.

My time has come! I have a podcast for everything. What do you like?

I subscribe to over 250 podcasts. -_- I don’t listen to all of them every day, and many aren’t in production anymore.

I love to listen and learn.

Unexplainable - Explainers on scientific mysteries, each episode is less than 30 minutes

What Went Wrong - Behind the scenes movie podcast. It’s a miracle any movie gets made.

Song Exploder - Musicians take apart their songs, layer by layer and talk about how it was made

Hysteria - Politics and News focusing on how the issues affect women

Levar Burton Reads - Levar Burton reads short stories. Not in production anymore, but there are almost 200 episodes worth of stories to hear

Hello From the Magic Tavern - A guy falls to another dimension but still gets WiFi so he started a podcast interviewing fantasy characters in that universe

I wasn’t finished talking. I was pausing

This. My boyfriend also has ADHD so our conversations are a nightmare for this exact reason.

Hyper focus is a real problem for me. I don’t even realize I’m hungry or that my bladder is full until I’m feeling nauseous or light headed. What feels like 15 minutes is actually hours.

At the same time, if I don’t complete a project from start to finish in one sitting, it’s nearly impossible to restart.

I don’t get basic things done like laundry or remembering to make appointments because I’m stuck on one task. Sometimes I’m afraid to do things I love because I can’t just do it for 20 minutes. Especially video games. I want to relax after work and play but I know I can’t let myself or I might not eat that evening.

I need help getting started. I’m not an idea person. I can make anything you come up with but I can’t come up with the ideas on my own.

I’ve used it for an outline and then I rewrite it with my input.

Also, I used it to generate a basic UI for a project once. I struggle with the design part of programming so I generated a UI and then drew over the top of the images to make what I wanted.

I tried to use Figma but when you’re staring at a blank canvas it doesn’t feel any better.

I don’t think these things are worth the cost of AI ( ethically, financially, socially, environmentally, etc). Theoretically I could partner with someone who is good at that stuff or practice till I felt better about it.

I don’t mind it, but I also don’t hate that people are trying something new! Maybe it fails, but maybe it’s awesome!

I see a lot of negativity in the comments. And yeah, this thing probably isn’t something I’m going to get, but at least they are trying something that isn’t a generic rectangle of glass like all the others. I miss the days of fun gadgets.

Halt and Catch Fire.

Set in the 80s, it’s about a company in Texas trying to build a computer to rival IBM. Er, that’s how it starts. I liked it so much, I bought it.

Okay, I’m sold.

But does it roll down like Yakuake did before I updated Fedora and broke it? :( That’s all I want.

Agreed. I appreciate the well-thought and out level headed approach lemm.ee has taken.

Actually, for a moment I was annoyed they wouldn’t defederate with a certain offensive instance. But, now, looking back on it, I think they made the right decision. I appreciate that defederation is an extreme tool that shouldn’t be used lightly.

I read somewhere that everyone is bad at their job. When you’re good at your job you get promoted until you stop being good at your job. When you get good again, you get promoted.

I know it’s not exactly true but I like the idea.
