I got one after a surgery because I couldn’t touch my butthole without screaming. And I still thought they were weird. Now I can’t stand it if one isn’t available. Fwiw, if you are a relatively clean pooper the toilet paper is mainly for drying off.
My roommate and I stood in line for it, I remember marveling over how well-made it was. They got everything right. Even the little beeps and boops using the OS itself. You don't really see that anymore.
You’re probably addicted to YouTube. It’s easy dopamine. ADHD brains seem to crave it. Sounds like you need treatment if the medicine isn’t cutting it. I find physical activity helps me the most. I get addicted to that too but at least I’m not on YouTube all day (I’ll save it for downtime at night as a reward).
Hissing definitely reminded me of when I let the magic smoke out of some charging ICs when working on other electronics. It can look fine but trying to fix them if they have a port is a big pain.
I used to help friends get their nvidia cards’ 3D drivers working with various distros around that time period. Most would have given up on it entirely if not for that. It’s so nice how much easier it is now. Now the hassle is usually anti-cheat… I’m hoping the pressure from the Steamdeck taking off in popularity counteracts that.
talk to your GP or fnp and get a referral. Some will just prescribe you but I’d suggest finding someone to talk to as well. They can help you with aspects the medicine can’t. I was prescribed and never had any real treatment unless I got in trouble at school. This led to me ditching it every few months thinking I was fine when I wasn’t. Obviously this is more expensive and everyone is different so ymmv.
The ads are absolutely rampant on the burner I made. I don’t remember it ever being this bad. But my previous accounts were quite old and I rarely saw any at all back then.
Huh? Have you been recently? There is no algorithm. You get gambling ads and bot bullshit no matter what subject you post about. It’s completely flatlined. The brain drain is palpable.
YouTube will at least find somewhat related videos based on what you view. Instagram/Meta will go so far as to slamming ads in your face trying to guess your mental illnesses with ad displays and getting spookily close simply by the memes and posts you gawk at by how long you hover over them. They completely embarrass Twitter in that area now.
And Twitter definitely wasn’t always this way. Creating a burner used to be a pain in the ass because it would usually somehow figure out who you were rapidly even on a fresh or sandboxed OS, and start slyly suggesting your old followers and similar. It was downright spooky at times. All of that is gone.
The read-only bit and updates causing packages to revert changes is kind of a big deal. I’ve rarely seen it mentioned or it is constantly glossed over.
I made a burner to see for myself after using it for work a few years ago. It’s a complete dumpster fire now, way worse than before. Bots and shitty animated gambling ads everywhere. Porn bots and scammers are trying to follow you every 2 seconds. Elon’s dipshit musings/ragebait are forced into your feed even when you block him. Any tweets you make get zero engagement. remaining accounts are either bots, racists, fascists, or creators and celebrities moaning and/or hemming and hawing about leaving all the time because muh ego. It’s not even worth witnessing the spectacle.
It’s also fucking straight up broken half the time. Mastodon is a breath of fresh air in comparison even pre-Elon. Wish more would use it.
Asrock app is trash too. Takes ages to start up and the UI is edgy-looking, wannabe ROG garbage. You can only control the motherboard RGB from the BIOS, so you can’t avoid ditching it if you want everything off on your RAM, etc. and of course the Kingston sticks default to godawful pulsing rainbow eye-cancer. I miss evga so much.
