This checks a lot of boxes for a collaborative notes app for the family, though I don’t see any mention of clients, so I’m assuming it’s just a web app at the moment?

I remember trying this out a while back and bouncing off it because it was a Windows only app. I’d love a Linux client or even a Web UI to make it platform agnostic.

Right now Syncthing basically fulfills this need for me (including “cloud” saves) outside the nice library UI.

The other 70% are just storing that data to sell at a later date when they need another income stream to give hungry VC investors.

And I just learned of its existence.

It makes sense for handhelds, but are there any advantages of using Bazzite over just using a regular distribution for a gaming desktop?

Game about making money in a genre designed to make money makes money.

Sorry, this is just scientifically untrue. Meditation can help improve symptoms by strengthening skills that are typically atrophied in ADHD brains, it doesn’t “physically restructure” your brain any more than learning does.

I’m glad it has worked for you, and meditation is certainly a safe and often valuable method for improving many aspects of mental health. However, framing it as some miracle cure is disingenuous.

Sorry you got downvoted so much, because you’re not 100% wrong. Meditation can actually help with some ADHD symptoms, however

1. Meditation can be especially difficult for those with ADHD, because it requires doing the exact thing their brain has trouble doing. If you are able to overcome that hurdle, it can be very helpful—exercising a part of your brain that is underdeveloped. But “just meditate” is useless advice for many people.
2. This comes across as dismissive to the original post, which is about healthcare systems not just lacking accommodation, but full of extra challenges for the most vulnerable. There is much more to ADHD treatment than medication. For example, many people, especially those who went undiagnosed, have years of trauma to unravel, and therapy comes with all these same challenges.

Not really. I’ve tried some other solutions like antidepressants and they didn’t help because they don’t address the core issue. AFAIK only stimulants are proven to be an effective treatment for ADHD.

Also, that only alleviates one of the problems I mentioned.

Cannabis is not a suitable treatment for ADHD. If anything, it exacerbates attention and memory issues.

I'm assuming the mods didn't think the question was asked in good faith, but rather a "troll" question. I suspect the same, just like how this post seems more like a complaint than advice.

If you are genuinely curious, I'd advise either looking up the history of authoritarianism or re-framing your question.

Both are exclusively CIS.

Right, obviously everyone knows what it’s for now, but it may be difficult to deduce in the future without context.

If you watched the video and read my comments, you could probably put that together.

I agree that the majority of the backlash is overblown, and mostly the result of unclear messaging. However, it's important that Mozilla is held to a standard. They have presented themselves as a privacy-respecting alternative, and when they do things that sow distrust, it undermines their mission.

They're one of the few nonprofit organizations that can reasonably compete with the other major players in the browser space, and I hope they can continue to exist while keeping their integrity intact. It seems that task is proving extremely difficult in the current industry.

Don't bother commenting if you're not even going to watch more than 10% of the video. You're right that he has some bias, but he is aware of Mozilla's flaws and presents some good points.

It's by far my favorite text editor on Windows. The first time I used it (I think to edit cfg files for Skyrim mods, lol), I was hooked. It's great to know it's creator is so principled.

Did you fall for it because it was hyped or because you couldn’t afford to buy?

I’m really glad I couldn’t afford a Tesla back when the Model 3 came out because I probably would’ve bought one.

Things I actually fell for… mostly video games, but it’s not the end of the world. Mostly it made me much more discerning with new purchases.
