Implying you can control or induce these hyperfixations in a productive way is disingenuous at best, measurably harmful at worst.

If you work in a job that can use use the chaos in a productive way that’s great, but I’m willing to bet you still face abnormally high difficulty with general life tasks, and consistently struggle to enforce a work/life balance.

You’re not helping people with ADHD by posting this. You’re establishing an unattainable standard for people that are already doing everything in their power just to get by.

Man I fucking love this community sometimes. This is like the 5th fantastic self hostable open source software I’ve seen since joining lemmy, and every time, it gives me that feeling of discovering the internet all over again.

Was just thinking about this. Probably can’t run high speed over that section of track, but it surely won’t halt operations

Its interesting how you can tell some are using DJI 03 Air VTX and others are using an analog VTX… I wonder if there’s a reason for that?

I never mention my ADHD to anyone but my therapist and friends I’ve known for several years. I don’t want people to change how they treat me, whether for better or worse, when they find out about it.

This is such a weird phenomenon that I entirely relate to.

I found a job where my boss doesn’t care when I show up so long as the work is getting done.

The only other solution that works for me is going to bed obnoxiously early (like 9) and aiming to show up an HOUR ahead of time.

I need to try this, it looks great!

Man, I got enough to worry about, I don’t need this

Thanks king

Jet powering a drone that small is a bold move but with a talented pilot would be very impressive

Holy shit. I do a fair bit of small electronics repair on the side, the cost of a decent heat pad is about half that of a 3d printer… This may be what finally inspires me to get a 3d printer.

Well shit.

What the fuck is a GRAVITY BOMB???

From experience, Lemmy/Mastadon is a lot easier to pitch to potential users than Linux lol

Make an app that is a little ASCII potted plant in your terminal and every time you type something it waters the plant and it grows

Commenting so I can grab this later

The thing I don’t get about masking is how it’s any different from standard mental filtering most people do in casual and professional social settings.

If I acted however I wanted whenever I wanted I wouldnt have many friends, let alone stay employable.

Coincidentally, I have many autistic friends, who have explained the concept to me before - I still don’t really get it, but I don’t need to understand it to still respect my friends.

But internally, it just sounds like complaining. Idk. If anyone has a decent explanation I’d be interested.

Ayo what the fuck how’d you do that

I’ve lurked for a while, but I made an account just so I could comment on what a brain-dead take this is. Referring to ADHD meds prescribed by a licensed physician as “stimmies” perpetuates the idea that ADHD is nothing more than a “lazy person” illness, and that our medication is merely a crutch or an “addiction”.

Furthermore, people don’t “choose meds over other pleasures in life”. Meds are the reason we can achieve and enjoy pleasures in life. Needing medication is not fucking “dependency” akin to a drug addict. Jeez, I guess you must have a real problem with diabetics always neededing their next hit of insulin too, am I right?

Unreal. You’re doing way more harm than good and I suggest you check yourself before doing even more damage.
