What are you smoking?

Maybe do some self reflection first? You're missing their point and it's bigger than Saturn.

It's a bit too close to the old MasterCard logo for me, but still cool.

Nice, it even comes with a happy coronavirus logo!

Not that it matters much, but I think these days it's all called ADHD but with three subtypes: Inattentive (which would be ADD), Hyperactive, or Combined (which is the most common).

Only 6M €? For an event of that size that feels a lot cheaper than I would have thought.

Terrible headline. It sounds like Poundland is fully going away, rather than them closing some shops and cutting the unprofitable fluff such as the clothing line (which is what the article says).

Isn't this satire?

Are we seriously valuing this comic based on the quality of the drawings rather than the idea they convey?

IMHO this is all about the idea/text, which doesn't look like AI slop to me.

A console in 2025 "runs at a stable 30" fps and that's good news? Of course this is slightly faster than a mobile chip from 10 years ago, but that's an incredibly low bar to set.

Carl Pei and Pete Lau. They both co-founded OnePlus, Carl Pei later founded Nothing.

I'd agree, I live in the typical ADHD chaos but this meme doesn't feel relatable to me. I guess I'm lucky? Anyway, I'd totally say this is about anxiety, not ADHD.

What you're saying absolutely makes sense. However as someone with ADHD I couldn't relate any less, I wish I could get addicted to something like that and not lose interest after ten minutes!

Even assuming we're okay with using AI for language learning - then why would anyone pay for Duolingo instead of the many LLMs that people already use and pay for?

They've alienated their customer base hard. And this marketing video pretending they are siding with the users and against "their corporate overlords" is horribly tone deaf.

I've had success with just dish soap - it makes blockages "slide" more easily.

In the last flatshare I lived, I had a particularly annoying combination of a slow toilet and a flatmate incapable of solving any blockages. Whenever I'd see that, I'd go "fuck this", squirt a silly amount of Fairy in the bowl (I'm talking like 100 ml at least) and usually the blockage would resolve itself overnight.

Most people tend to develop coping mechanisms that help them pass as non-ADHD individuals, by lowering their standards for what they can achieve in life and by accepting the abnormally high amounts of stress that hiding their ADHD causes them.

Psychologists call this "growing out of ADHD".

In my view it's a Linux subsystem for Windows.

Why the name is the other way around, I'll never understand.

I was in the denialist camp. Not understanding what it was, I thought it was "a social media epidemic" and not a real thing.

My nephew (roughly my age, for context) told me he thought he had it, which I dismissed, also that it's genetic (knowing my mom and sister it did make a bit more sense...) then almost immediately came across a comment in Reddit of someone who had ADHD and wrote an experience that resonated SO MUCH with me. At that point I was mega suspicious.

I met my partner a couple of months after that, and another couple of months later, he moved into a house with a landlady... with ADHD. She's actually an ADHD coach now. Whenever her and I got together we essentially were mirrors of each other, forgetting things, misplacing things, dissociating, hyperfocusing, fidgeting...

I got diagnosed a year after that.

Fine, whatever. You can't ever search on SearxNG without paying. You win.

I've seen your comment history and it's full of negative comments because you're just trolling everyone. My only mistake in this conversation has been to reply to you when you've only been saying things you don't even believe yourself just to troll me. Sigh.

You're still missing the point, you're comparing hosting vs using.

If you wanted to host Google, you'd have to spend a fuckton of money on servers. If you want to host Lemmy, it's unfortunate that you don't own a computer (this puts things into perspective) but the requirements are absolutely minimal.

If you want to use Google, you have to pay the same as for using Lemmy, or searxNG, zero. However with Google you will pay with your data, whereas with SearxNG you have the option to donate, and the option to self host, if you choose. You don't have the option to self-host something like Google unless your last name is something like Bezos.
