Certainly sounds familiar, my tip to him is to try and write recipes down and get in the habit of mise en place-ing (prep chopping / pre-measuring) when you know what you’re gonna cook. Once the food hits the hot pan, any semblance of a plan goes out the window

(but also know “sticking to habits” is hard for us with ADHD, as it frequently goes against our nature, so don’t be shocked if he struggles there)

I tend to be the one to cook the “whatever’s leftover in the fridge” dish, which is a guaranteed source of a little chaos. In those instances it’s always helpful to have my wife around to pass ingredients or do some prep tasks on the side so I don’t lose focus and burn the onions.

Also, if you don’t already have recipes written down, having someone help build out a recipe book as you go can help smooth out future cooks.

Shout out to Recipe Keeper - after a first cook, usually from a website or book, we put everything we like in there for future reference.

As someone with ADHD, the implemented order of operations is never logically optimal.

The more steps I have to do to course correct the more likely I fuck up the next thing.

Home automation is a godsend for me.

I don’t have an air fryer but if I did, the biggest help for me would be some sort of obnoxiously obvious reminder the nuggs are done so I don’t A) burn the house down, or B) have cold nuggs when I wake up from my hyperfocus an hour later.

All about acid and volume. Too much of anything and there’s no where else to go.

Spicy is just for the taste buds, and reallllllly spicy comes with a bonus reminder the next day.

Fuck the spray paint you just need to write “trump” on the back with a crayon and they’ll throw money at you.

Idk the exact number but the camera in my phone probably weighs like a gram or so, so Einstein tells me I’m carrying about 25,000,000 kWh in the camera alone, which if served at 5V would be ~ 5,000,000,000 5,000,000,000,000 mAh.

Guess I’m winning.

Edit: mafs.

Gonna take a lot of plumbers to set up the new sewer system, curious if any like sporting green.

A hat, or a brooch, or a pterodactyl!

Nah, totally normal, my dog came with one too when he was a puppy. Was supposed to smell like his Mom to help him settle in a new home.

If it helps you not pee in your crate I say you keep it.

Not really. Theoretically you can use Google Maps as a compass, but otherwise no. Per the article:

Shockingly, Google is yet to build its own native compass or level tool app for Android. Most third-party phone makers have taken matters into their own hands, but modern Pixel phones still don’t provide a user-facing app for accessing coordinates, altitude, magnetism, and other useful metrics. Thankfully, Compass has you covered.

$0.99 for a clean & ad-free app? Sounds like the kind of thing I’d be happy to pay for if I used a compass like ever.

You can click on the terms you don’t know to learn about them.

This is what makes Wikipedia special. Not the fact that it is a giant encyclopedia, but that you can quickly and logically work your way through a complex subject at your pace and level of understanding. Reading about elements but don’t know what a proton is? Guess what, there’s a link right fucking there!

Also probably gonna turn out it dissolves into smaller plastics, perfectly sized for penetrating the blood-brain-barrier.

Edit: I get it, no new technology has ever had issues with safety and efficacy uncovered after entering mass production and being discarded with reckless abandon in our environment

I apologize to the articles authors for my cynicism, it is clear from the article that nothing bad could possibly come from allowing this new plastic to dissolve in our oceans. It is nice to see plastic pollution has been definitively solved for the rest of time and we no longer have to worry about it.

Love the list, just a quick callout, these are pretty resource light services for self hosting, even $5/month seems like a stretch.

If you’re already running a server, the added overhead for a bookmark manager has got to be fractional watts, especially of you’re not bookmarking constantly.

If you’re doing a standalone server just for this, these can more than likely be hosted on a Raspberry Pi which uses 5W under load (maybe $1/mo under heavy load), and are incredibly lean when idle (pennies/month).

I do think your post does a good job making people think about the hidden costs of self hosting, but done right self hosting energy can be greatly reduced

Math remembers to carry the units for kilowatt hours.

That said, I’d pay $1.11/mo just to never have to deal with a cable on my desk again.

Yes and no, I’ve treated the symptoms, but not the problem. All it takes is a trillion dollar company buying a new domain every once in a while to foil uBlock, and now that it’s more known, anyone can create an an app that opens ports and listens for trackers.

Would love it if Firefox would let me block all requests to localhost.

We found that browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and Edge are susceptible to this form of browsing history leakage in both default and private browsing modes. Brave browser was unaffected by this issue due to their blocklist and the blocking of requests to the localhost; and DuckDuckGo was only minimally affected due to missing domains in their blocklist.

Aside from having uBlock Origin and not having any Meta/Yandex apps installed, anyone aware of additional Firefox settings that could help shut this nonsense down?

But I thought Edge was so crucial for the system to function it can’t be removed? That’s what MS told me at least, and I definitely trust them
