Firmaet burde lave en alternativ behandling hvor de fremme så mange forskellige arter af blomster og græsser i plænen. Vi har brug for det.

I got diagnosed last Christmas and started treatment as part of the diagnosis and the changes the medicine did to me are night and day. I started on 20mg Ritalin Uno (methylphenidate modified release). Now I'm on 20mg morning +10mg afternoon.

I still fidget with things constantly about just as much as before but as an engineer this is also how I see the world and do my job the best so I'm happy in a way that it didn't stop completely. The biggest change for me is all the noise in my head have been tuned down so much that I can actually think straight and focus on stuff. Before I felt like a constant blast of 10 radios playing at the same time in my mind all with different topics, tones, music, conversations, anxiety, traumas, hobbies, work etc. Now it's almost gone and I can see and hear clearly what I actually feel and tune into just one at a time. My general mood and mental health has improved significantly since I'm more calm and confident and can take much better decisions and act upon them. I feel like i improved 5 fold on my work and still have a little energy and mental capacity left for myself when i come home.

The best thing is that I now have better abilities to protect, understand and accept myself and my own behaviour. I now have the ability to actually take actions to improve. As an example I used to get stuck on YouTube shots for hours and hours but actually took the action the other day to protect myself and it is now blocked on my phone so I simply just can't go there anymore. I also stopped many other small dumb routines and finding a way to get out of them and stay focused on what I actually want to be doing.

Remaining symptoms is probably hyper focusing (like writing this post way too long compared to what it needs to be) but I'm better at steering the focus now. It's also stil completely Impossible for me to remember names, dates and future plans unless written down and checked multiple times. Also still going to bed waaay to late because brain is racing in the evening sometimes if the medicine wears off early. Depression is also still lurking around in the background, threatening to show itself but I'm getting better and better everyday as I'm slowly finding my new self.

Eddit. Forgot to mention that I also tried concerta 36mg but it absolutely did not work for me even though its supposed to be tye same. I got drowsy, had sleep issues with insomnia. Felt dizzy at random times during the day making it dangerous to drive. Got extremely tired when I got home and fell asleep on the couch because of dopamine crash just to be absolutely unable to sleep at night regardles of what I did. Ritalin is releasing much more precise for me and doesn't linger around for too long to cause sleep issues. I sleep sooo much better than i have ever done when I'm on Ritalin.

Hvad er amerikansk politik? 🙈🙉

Tror det er sundt at holde fokus på de ting hvor jeg faktisk har en mulighed for at ændre verden til noget bedre.

Er jeg den eneste som overhovedet ikke har skænket det en eneste tanke? Jeg undgår også bevidst samtlige nyheder som vedrører krig både det ene og det andet sted. Min hjerne har opbygget et slags filter for overskrifter og billeder om krig, så ser det helt simpelt ikke. Jeg aner jo intet om det alligevel, kan ikke gøre ved det, har ingen interesse og mit psykologiske helbred er sku det vigtigste for mig at passe på lige nu.

If you like Ubuntu I can only recommend Debian with KDE desktop (don't install the default gnome DE).

I just switched recently and it's a very clean feeling. No snap and no nonsens. Just stable and trustworthy.

Toilettet i mit nye hus er totalt tilkalket så det kan næsten ikke skylle ud. Har boet her i to uger nu og har snart gjort alt for at forsøge at afkalke det men det hjælper ikke. Det er et væghængt toilet og det sidste og eneste jeg ikke kan komme til at afkalke ordentligt er skyllerøret mellem cisternen og wc'et. Har forsøgt med koncentreret toiletrens og da det ikke virkede har jeg derefter brugt kogende vand og eddikesyre. Proppen i cisternen er taget ud så det kan få lov at virke direkte i skyllerøret. Alt andet i cisternen er afkalket. Der er stadig kalk hvor vandet løber ned i kummen som jeg har prøvet at skrabe væk og ladet trække i store mængder afkalknings wc-rens, men det er så tykt at det er svært at få ordenligt væk.

Jeg giver snart op. Det næste bliver nok et opkald til en vvs'er eller et nyt toilet... Suk...

In my naive mind the steam deck is a huge motivating factor for developers to go directly to native Linux games. In reality it's probably given only little a consideration.

You can always dump the hot water in an outside radiator if you HAVE to cool the server room to keep the temps down. A simple fan duckt would probably doo fine too. However with the heat pump you can also heat a little hot tub to use outside in summer

How long before the majority of game development is defaulting to Linux/Unix instead of windows? Getting native Linux games to run on windows is only becoming easier and easier with WSL? To me it seems like less of a hastle than trying to go the other way like we do today with proton and wine. Can someone enlighten me?

You can even dump the cold air from the heat pumps into the server room and pull the hot air back into the heat pump again to gain even better efficiency

I had an old laptop do this some years ago and it was because the graphics card was broken. I had dual graphic card and found a way to disable the broken one in bios (dedicated one, could continue on intel graphics) but the computer was too old to reliably use much longer and it died even more a few months later.

Same for bicycle helmets. Maybe you are not crashing because you feel like pro rider and you are just biking 500m today, but someone else might run into you by accident making you crash. Same for seatbelts in the parking lot.
